Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper
When Dr Pepper first introduced the Cherry Vanilla variety, I bought a 20-ounce bottle without even thinking about what I was doing. There was no fear that this soft drink could taste bad or otherwise disappoint me. I grew up drinking Dr Pepper, so I’m fairly loyal to the …
Marie Callenders Blueberry Muffin Mix
I was craving something sweet one evening and went in search of something to satisfy my ever so growing sweet tooth. In one of my kitchen containers I had a packet of Marie Callenders Blue Berry Muffin mix, neatly tucked away for occasions like this. For sixty cents …
Nestle Coffee-mate
I don’t use any other coffee creamer but only Nestle Coffee-mate. It’s a really a perfect partner for my coffee every morning. It makes my coffee taste good and creamy. I have tried using milk several times on my coffee, but I am not really satisfied …
Betty Crocker Warm Delights
I tried this the other day and surprisingly it was really good. I didn’t expect it to be that good. You pour the cake mix into a bowl that they give you, then you put a little bit of water in it and you squeeze some of the fudge …
C-Boost Tropical Fruit Smoothie
As a born again health fanatic, I am always on the lookout for new tasty treats with the added health benefits. During one of the lazy Sunday afternoons, I was shopping for a few bare necessities at my local Kroger food store in Lexington, KY when I came across …
Carmel Apple Coffee
I have recently tried Carmel Apple coffee from Cafe Brunches of Mansfield Ohio. I had a cup of the Carmel Apple blend and enjoyed its delicious and fragrant beans so much that I ordered a half a pound of whole coffee beans to go, for about four fifty …
Lipton Superfruit Green Tea
I am a major fan of tea and I love trying new varieties of this beverage. Whenever I see a new variety I have to get my hands on it! When I saw this variety of green tea made with peach and mangosteen flavorings, hence the “superfruit” label, I …
Campbells Italian Wedding Soup
I really enjoyed this when my mom made it for dinner. I am not a huge fan of soups and when my mom brought this home I didn’t know what to expect. When she began making it I didn’t think that I would like it. Boy was I wrong. …
Tesco Value Rich Tea Biscuits
The rich tea biscuits from the Tesco Value range are just as good as any more expensive brand. I bought a packet of these today which only cost me 25 pence for a generous 300g packet, which should last me a while. I noticed that Tesco do …
The All New Nescafe Mocha Canned Drink in 240ml
My mother and I bought some groceries and I included the all-new Nescafe Mocha canned drink in 240ml at around 20 pesos. It is now available in all supermarkets and groceries. I haven’t seen this one before so I decided to include it into the cart.
When I got …
Coca-Cola Zero
I cannot drink full-sugar soft drinks, so I am always looking for new “diet” alternatives. I was excited to try Coca-Cola Zero. It has a good cola taste without being too sweet and syrup-like. I think it is more similar to regular Coca-Cola than it is …
Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles Spicy Chicken Flavor
I have been a fan of ramen noodles for some time now, but I had not tried Yakisoba noodles before. Although I am not sure what the difference is between ramen noodles and Yakisoba noodles (even after trying them both they seem very similar), I could not resist trying …
Tyson Buffalo Chicken Breast Tenderloins
My husband and I bought Tyson Buffalo Chicken Breast Tenderloins for an easy meal to cook up on the weekends. We bought these in the large plastic bags which hold the tenderloins. I love these type of bags because it allows me to only cook the specific …
Jimmy Dean Griddle Sandwiches
Not long after McDonald’s introduced their McGriddles breakfast sandwiches, I tried one - and have been hooked ever since. The McGriddle is a fast, convenient breakfast food that I can buy via the drive-thru window on my way to school every morning. And that food tastes so, so good. …

Maple Grove Farms: Pure Maple Dark Amber Syrup
Maple Grove Farms: Pure Maple Dark Amber Syrup is expensive. It is expensive and not a whole lot comes in a jar: just twelve point five ounces. The value is most certainly not there. Yet the flavor of this syrup is just positively incredible. This syrup is a thick, …
Busy Baker Cheddar Cheese Baked Snack Crackers
I’m trying to lose a little bit of weight and, one way I am doing that (successfully, I might add), is by cutting back on the amount of soda I drink simply by not drinking any while I’m at work; just water.
A side effect of that is, by 2 …
Armour Vienna Sausages
I was digging through my cupboard the other day and came across a can of Armour Vienna sausages. I don’t remember buying these so I can only assume it was something my parents brought over for us (they have a habit of buying things then not using them). But, …
Cadbury Bourneville Dark Chocolate
There are not much dark chocolates in India, and thus, most people are unaware of their delicious taste. I was really happy to know that Cadbury, one of the biggest chocolate companies of India launched “Bourneville”, their first dark chocolate. As soon as I saw the advertisement, I felt …
Raley’s Fine Bakery Bells, Stars, and Tree Cookies
As it sounds from the title, Raley’s Fine Bakery Bells, Stars, and Tree Cookies were for the Christmas holidays. They come on a tray with a large plastic covering. Now in the first place, it’s nearly impossible to keep them fresh in that container, so the cookies …
POMEGRANAT JUICE
I am very aware of the differences between pure juices and juices that have additives, colorings, preservatives, etc.. I truly enjoy drinking the pure juices, as they are so much healthier to drink, and so much more cost effective, as I am not paying for ‘junk’ I don’t want …
Tesco Finest New Zealand Clover honey
Finest New Zealand Clover honey is one of my favorite sandwich spread and there are times in which I usually use it over on top of my toasted bread with a little bit of butter on it and I have to admit that this honey is the best honey …
Selecta Coffee Crumble Ice Cream
Coffee Crumble is one of the premium flavors of Selecta Ice Cream. Given my taste for gourmet ice cream, I have tried almost all premium variety. Of all the flavors under premium label, this is one of my favorites. This ice cream is primarily composed of coffee and nuts.
What …
Quorn Creamy Mushroom Vegetable Pie
One of my favorite Quorn products is the Creamy mushroom pies because it is filled with juicy Quorn pieces and sliced mushrooms. As I’ve mentioned before Quorn pieces are made with mycroprotein (a member of the fungi family) which is naturally low in fat. In short, it …
Carvel Ice Cream Cakes
I am getting on in years (almost 35) but I still reflect on the days when as children going to a Birthday was special because you knew that there would be a cake, games and other amazing goodies. Sometime in the 80’s the commercial for Fudgey the Whale ice …
L’Angelica Herbal tea
I bought this tea by accident, I usually buy another herbal tea from this brand and as they were all on discount and I took three packages I guess one box was misplaced among these teas that I usually buy so I took it not even noticing it. The …
Premium Quality Private Selection Thin Crust Margherita Pizza
For just three dollars and thirty-three cents, this frozen pizza made by Kroger and sold under the Private Selection brand name sounded just too good to pass up. The box that held the Premium Quality Private Selection Thin Crust Margherita Pizza stated that this pizza had three kinds of …
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup is a packaged soup mix that retails for one dollar and fifty cents in stores. Some preparation and mixing are required before this soup can be placed in the microwave, but the directions on the package were pretty easy to follow and I just had …
365 Everyday Value Organic Vanilla Extract
I normally buy spices at Publix or Kroger because I can get them cheaper, but out of convenience, I decided to pick up vanilla while getting the rest of my groceries at Whole Foods one day. They have a lot of expensive and (most likely) high quality spices and …
Marie Callender’s Shrimp Scampi
When it comes to shrimp, I will practically put them with anything. When it comes to seafood, for me, shrimp is up there with crabs. I’ve heard of shrimp scampi, but I had never had the opportunity to try it. I didn’t want to squander money at a restaurant …
Crystal Farms Swiss Cheese
I was in the mood for Swiss cheese last night so I decided to stop off at the store to buy some. I wanted a cheaper brand of it and, since the store brand was already sold out (apparently others had the same idea I did), I ended up …
Chahine Supermarket
I spent my weekend driving around Calgary stocking up on ingredients for ethnic dishes that I was planning to cook over the next weeks. One of the joys of Calgary is the many ethnic markets in the city, and the best Middle Eastern market, in my opinion and according …
Heluva Good Dips
If you’re looking for a dip with a big, bold flavor then I highly recommend Heluva Good!® Sour Cream Dips. They come in several varieties ranging from the traditional French Onion, Buttermilk Ranch and Garlic Parmesan flavors to the more daring Jalapeno Cheddar, Fiesta Salsa, the curiously named …
Pringles Original Flavor
I love eating while writing, reading or watching a movie but I prefer to eat potato chips because its salty, irresistible and easy to eat. I have tried a lot of potato chips in the market and my personal favorite is Original flavor. They brags that once you pop …
Little Debbie Fall Marshmallow Treats
I find these Little Debbie Fall Marshmallow Treats to be pretty tasty and even borderline addicting! The marshmallow flavor is quite rich and scrumptious, but because I like marshmallow, my opinion might be somewhat biased. The marshmallow flavor also tastes quite authentic in its flavor, and that is always …
Schlotsky’s Turkey Brest Combo
This place had been close to my work and I had driven by it everyday and my curiosity finally got the best of me and I had to go in and give it a try.
I ordered the number 2 medium combo with no tomatoes which is one turkey …
Cinnabon Cinnamon Crisps
OK, I do not think I know anybody who does not love those hot, soft and sticky Cinnabon Cinnamon rolls. I look forward to going to the mall or the airport because I can usually find them and buy myself a sweet cinnamon and frosting treat. So, …
Great Value Taco Shells
The Great Value Taco Shells come twelve to a pack for one dollar at Walmart. They are yellow corn taco shells and I think they taste as good and fresh as the taco shells sold under the name brands. On a couple of occasions, I’ve purchased these taco shells …
Jones Brand Fully Cooked Breakfast Sausage
Product Description: Box of 10 pork breakfast sausage links (I bought maple flavor) available at select stores for around $2.50/box.
What I liked about this product: I usually don’t get a lot of time for breakfast and, even on the weekends (when I don’t have to go to work), I …
Bristot Classic Esspresso Coffee
I really can’t do without the coffee in the morning, it is actually the first thing I do when I open my eyes to go and put the moka on the stove to boil. I like to have a lot of coffee at home so that it never happened …
Wal-Mart’s Already Made Small Fruit Platter
Wal-Mart’s small fruit platter is a perfect option for a dessert, afternoon snack, or even for the morning’s to add with your breakfast. It’s small, which makes it perfect for an intimate meal with a loved one, or to share with a small group of friends, or even your …
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix produces some pretty scrumptious lemon bars! The lemon flavor is intensely sweet, terrifically tangy and oh so moist! Each bite I take energies my taste buds and really sets them ablaze. This lemon flavor will definitely not go unnoticed! I also really like how soft …
Kirk’s Macaroni Pie
When I began to work across the road there is a person named Kirk who sells food daily, only from about 11am at the earliest to 2pm at the latest. He brings freshly cooked food and it is usually stuff you yourself would make at home. Unless it is …
Tuna Helper Cheesy Pasta flavor
A product of the Betty Crocker company, Tuna Helper is similar to the Hamburger Helper line of boxed skillet meals. The main difference is that Tuna Helper is designed to incorporate tuna instead of ground beef into a casserole-style dish.
Recently, I have been purchasing a variety of the …
Aunt Jemima Sausage Egg and Cheese on Griddlecake
Aunt Jemima Sausage Egg and Cheese on Griddlecake is modeled specifically after the McDonald’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese McGriddle, and that is the main reason I decided to give these griddlecakes a try. I love the McDonald’s breakfast sandwich - perhaps a tad too much considering how unhealthy it …
Knorr Pasta Sides Beef
This Pasta Side suffers from the same problem that plagues some of the other Pasta Sides, like the Cheddar Broccoli variety. The problem I’m referring to is the lack of beef. That’s what the Pasta Side is called, and yet the pieces of beef are so super small that …
Mum’s Bake Shoppe and Ice Cream Parlour
We have been here a few times when we have been in the Berwick area, and we always enjoy our treats! Just the other day we headed out there specifically to go to Mum’s for some homemade ice cream.
The location is great. It is just off the main street …
Anlene Milk Powder
Anlene Milk is a nutritious milk for everybody. It is created to prevent you from having osteoporosis, an illness that make our bones weaken. Preventive measures are always better than cure that is why I tried drinking Anlene Milk.
Anlene Milk is an Anchor product as far as I know. …
Folger’s Country Roast Coffee
I am a coffee addict that always loves a great bargain. I had the chance to purchase Folger’s Country Roast coffee for a really low price. I did not expect it to taste so good because it was so cheap. I decided to give it a try anyway and …
