Mama Cozzi’s Stone Baked Veggie Pizza is sold for just two dollars and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. The price of this pizza may cause people to wonder what they’re getting for less than three dollars, and really, I don’t think this pizza compares to the more …

I saw these last year and loved them and was happy to see them again this year. What I’m talking about are M&M’s Minis in a Tube. I adore regular M&M’s, but these minis are tiny little things that continue the milk chocolate goodness of regular size …

In a little corner in my town sits my favorite bakery, the Femas Bakeshop. It has a bustling commercial activity with people from all walks of life coming and going here. It is situated in a corner in front of the town market. But its popularity is actually not …

Well, I can’t say that I didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I purchased this Asian Side. I knew it was going to be sweet, and I didn’t think a sweet side would go well with dinner, but I still wanted to give it a try, …

I like honey on a lot of things. Chicken, fries and biscuits, for example. I don’t, however, like these honey Teddy Grahams too much. It’s disappointing, really, as I know I’d like these Teddy Grahams if just more honey was used. Unlike the other flavors Teddy Grahams come in, …

Tai Pei Chicken Fried Rice is, quite frankly, terrible. Everything about this meal is incredibly mushy and, well flavorless. About all I tasted was salt and peas. This meal is positively loaded with salt, so if you are watching your sodium intake, watch out for this meal! The chicken …

Christmas time is when my friends and family scattered around the world start sending me candy to share at the holidays. I have a lot of friends living in different parts of the US and since they know how much I love candy, they’re always trying to send me …

When I first saw the Noel Dux Original Crackers snack one day, the first thing that came to my mind was a particular snack called “Club Social” that used to be popular when I was much younger in the nineties, because the packaging looked similar. However, it was only …

I’ve always enjoyed Cheetos and whenever I have the case of the munchies, it never fails to satisfy me. I also have this thing for Jalapeno peppers and when I discovered Cheetos Cheddar Jalapeno at the local grocery, I couldn’t wait to try it out!
I’ve always loved Cheetos …

This is another product that has long been in use in my household — Pillsbury Biscuits - Buttermilk. Nowadays, I usually buy the value pack of four rolls. It’s still available as individual units that equal about 12 biscuits, and it’s also sold in a smaller, single-help …

Have you ever wondered what all those substitutes for cheese, meat, poultry, sausage, ice-cream taste like? I’m not vegan and I’m not dairy-free, but I’ve always wondered whether those things taste legit or not. I might not remember what real beef tastes like, but I do know the taste of …

I found Stouffer’s Macaroni & Beef to be a relatively decent meal, although certainly nothing spectacular or overly memorable. I am not even sure that I will be purchasing it a second time, actually. One of the reasons I am not sure is because this meal is really not …

Lately I’ve been on a hunt for a perfect, smooth peanut butter for my toasts and snacks. Jif Peanut Butter is probably one of my favourites because of its relatively clean ingridients list and the low price. But even when I’m in love with a certain food, I don’t stop …

I wasn’t sure about getting Two-Bite Brownies but I had read a few reviews and they sounded pretty positive so when I went shopping at Sam’s Club recently, I took a chance on them. I really love brownies, but baking from scratch is something I used to do …

Ben and Jerry’s are known for their eccentric, unique ice cream flavors and a name that is just as unique. Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia is vanilla ice cream with cherry pieces and chocolate chunks. I’m generally not a cherry flavored person. I like cherries but I don’t typically …

Why have half a cashew when whole cashews are so well priced? I use cashews in a lot of my Oriental cooking, and my husband thinks they are what television was invited for…….to munch really good cashew nuts!
The Fisher Premium While Cashews come in a can that is bright …

Kettle Krinkle - Cut Salt & Freshly Ground Pepper are potato chips that are quite unlike any other potato chip that I have had before. This is a good thing, because I really find these potato chips to be tasty and yes, addicting. What sets this particular variety of …

There is no doubt for me that one of the highlights of going to MacDonalds is their fries. I have always loved them and wish they could be readily available at home. I understand that this would probably turn me into a very overweight being, but they are lovely.

So, a coffee pod company has teamed up with Baileys to produce a flavoured coffee pod that is compatible with Nespresso coffee machines. Nespresso compatible coffee pods with a hint of original Irish cream flavour sound delectable, but they are actually a little disappointing in my opinion. I made …

Flax seeds are the organic source of natural mucilage and most importantly they provide fiber into our bodies. One of the flaxseed whole food products I take daily are the Spectrum Organic Ground Flaxseeds because they have a great nutty taste and are slightly salted, dried and full of …
