Toblerone
This chocolade is produced in Switzerland and like almost all Swiss chocolate this chocolate is perfect and I really enjoy everything about it. I like the shape of it because you just bite it, it would look silly to bite a standard bar of chocolate because it is thin …
Sweet Factory the World’s Smallest Jawbreakers
Sweet Factory “World’s Smallest Jawbreakers” are my favorite candies. They look just like jawbreakers but are the smallest made anywhere. I have seen them range from about 2mm to about 6mm. I like to chew them instead of suck on them because they are hard but at the same …
Rice A Roni
No matter how hard I try to make my own version of Rice a Roni, it never works! My rice always turns out undercook and never has the flavor that I aime for.
Rice A Roni is an easy alternitive to homemade rich. It has many great flavors …
Stouffer’s Skillet Sensations Mushroom Chicken Penne
Well, frozen dinner are never really quite good. I think it is the preservatives and all the additives in the food that give me an uneasy feeling in the stomach an hour later. But sometimes there is no other choice, and I think the that Skillet Sensations Chicken Penne …
McCain Smiles
I do like Potato products and have these now and again. I could probably eat a whole bag of these as they are so yummy but they are quite filling as well.
These are frozen so you find them in the Freezer section. They come in a 454g bag …
Folgers Instant Coffee
Folgers makes a very good instant coffee, almost excellent I might add.
The flavor is rich, but not overwhelmingly. A teaspoon of Coffee in a hot mug of water first thing in the morning without having to wait on the drip or the percolater is just what I need …
Oscar Mayer Deli-Creations
Last year, Oscar Mayer debuted its Deli-Creations line, and boy are they good! The goal behind the various sandwiches is to give the consumer ‘fresh baked taste in 60 seconds’. Amazingly, it’s true!
What I love about these handy lunch and dinner items is that everything you need …
Teavana Tea Stores in Florida

Sam’s Choice (beverages)
Walmart’s generic brand of sodas is called Sam’s Choice. I have tried their flavored beverages, and I still have yet to find one that really closely resembles a major name brand soda. While I can not say that the Sam’s Choice beverages taste bad in any way, …

Old El Paso Hard and Soft Taco Dinner Kit
Thanks to a new product I just found, I can now make tacos at home again, which is something that makes me very happy. For years, I have rarely purchased taco kits from the grocery store because I like hard tacos and my husband likes soft ones, so I …
Teekanne wintertime tea
I really like Teekanne teas because they are so special, all of them are mixture of different kind of fruits and it is never only one fruit, and most of them have spices added.
My favorite one is Winter time, there’s orange, cinnamon and apple in it and it is …
Orville Redenbacher’s Movie Theater Butter Microwave Popcorn
I love popcorn and watching movies, so when I picked up some videos at Blockbuster Video I also grabbed some popcorn from my local grocery store. I love lots of butter on my popcorn so the “movie theater butter” flavor really appealed to me.
I have tried many other …
Dairy Queen Iron Grilled Classic Club Sandwich
Since being introduced, I’ve had the Dairy Queen Iron Grilled Classic Club Sandwich a few times. It looks and sounds good, so I’ve continued to try it because I love a really good club sandwich. The problem is that this isn’t really consistently good. It’s more …
Despar Frollini Noir cookies
I go mad about chocolate chips and I really like cookies so you can imagine that I adore chocolate chips cookies. Although these cookies are very popular in USA here in Europe they aren’t so it isn’t very easy to find them. I used to buy cookies with chocolate …
Granarolo Yogurt Cereals

Sam’s Market (Berkeley, CA next to campus)
One of my favorite places hands down to go eat at in Berkeley. There are very few people who I have also talked to that disagree that Sam’s is an amazing store. Being brought onto the crucial telegraph space next to Walgreens a few years ago, it is one of …

New Fire Safe Cigarettes
The new so-called Fire Safe Cigarettes (FSC) are now the only cigarettes people can buy in most American states. This law recently went into effect, and as a smoker, it affects me directly. In Arizona, the stores began the switch months ago, and these are the only cigarettes I …

Most cigar aficionados agree that Cohiba cigars are simply the best there is. A trip to Cuba is a must for anyone wishing to enjoy the taste and smell of good cigars without going broke, but if you are willing to spend the money, you can find good Cuban …
Farmer John Ham Steaks
I’m a little surprised I like this as much as I do, but I’ve enjoyed Farmer John Ham Steaks off and on for several years. The only reason I’m surprised is that it’s really not a brand I’ve heard of that often, aside from seeing a handful of …

Milo Food Drink
The Drink “Milo” must be as old as time itself since I initially thought it was a drink which came here in the nineties when I was a little girl, but my mother said recently that she used to drink it too as a child. Nevertheless, even though I …
Roma Pizza
My wife picked up some Roma pizzas yesterday because they were on sale; 6 for $10. I have to say, they weren’t worth the money.
I have had Roma pizzas in the past and remember liking them. But, after trying them again last night, I can’t remember why I did.
For …
Chili’s Grilled Chicken Sandwich
I prefer chicken over ground meat when it comes to hot sandwiches. Combine that with cheese and bacon and I’m sold. I get a lot of gift cards from people because they know I love food. When I got one for Chili’s, I was tempted to …

Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs

Diet Pepsi Cola– Decaf
This soda happens to be a favorite of mine. Although sodas sweetened with Aspartame are not good for you by any means, an occasional glass or two shouldn’t hurt too much. I enjoy Diet Pepsi Decaf because of the light, refreshing, crisp, true cola taste. It does not have …
Nestle Pure Life Natural Spring Water
Usually our family buys the inexpensive, store brand bottles of water, so it was a treat when we splurged and got a case of Nestle Pure Life Natural Spring water. For $4.99, we got a case of 24 bottles. A little steep compared to other brands, but well …

Mrs. Freshley’s Strawberry Fruit & Grain Cereal Bar

Quaker Instant Oatmeal
Except for the fact that it tastes like my niece’s baby food, it’s really good. There are different flavors like chocolate and banana and honey, but we buy chocolate flavor more often. The other flavor reminds me of the taste of bottled baby food, and it grosses me out. …
Ling Ling Potstickers
We made some Chinese food the other day and, because I wasn’t sure if what we purchased would be enough, I stopped off at the store and purchased a package of Ling Ling Potstickers to go with it.
I should have saved my money.
Normally, I like potstickers (basically a pasta …
Rond noir (Ferrero Rocher ) chocolate candy
Ferrero Rocher, the famous Italian candy factory, is a funny creature… They have aggressive marketing, including many —“ often slightly tacky - TV advertisements featuring »posh« people in very lush surroundings. And the packaging of their products is, no doubt, appealing to the eye.
So, judging by the design, Ferrero …
Alpine Full Cream Evaporated Milk
Keeping an evaporated milk in my kitchen is very important for me. I’ll never know when I’m going to need it. But since I cook a lot, I’d like to have it available because I know some menus that need it. One of my favorites is soup. Whatever soup …

Colacao
Colacao is not just any cocoa powder, but my favourite one. When adding Colacao to my morning milk, it makes it taste really wonderful, with a clearly defined cocoa taste.
The container hasn’t changed much since I was a kid, so it is very easy to identify. It doesn’t taste …

Bacon Cheddar Ranch Fries from Checkers
I have tried many kinds of French fries from fast food joints, and I don’t think any can really compare to Checkers Bacon Cheddar Ranch French Fries. They are so tasty and cooked fresh right when ordered so that I can enjoy freshly cooked fries fully loaded with a …
