Oatly Vegan Ice-cream
Vegan ice-cream is not something you can surprise people with anymore. America is the queen of vegan ice-cream and part of the reason why I’m looking forward to going back there this summer is actually the dairy-free ice-cream. In Europe, however, there aren’t that many brands that make the cruelty-free …
Lean Cuisine Mushroom Pizza
One thing I like about Lean Cuisine is the brand’s gourmet pizza. I like the idea that I can eat one of these small pizzas and feel like I’m indulging without actually indulging too much!
Since mushrooms are some of my favorite ingredients to include on a pizza, I …

I’m a busy man and because of this hectic schedule in work and different things concerning work I do not have time to cook for myself during dinner. This situation leads me to the point where I need to buy canned foods and eat that for my dinner together …
Purefoods Corned Beef
It has always been a Filipino habit to buy canned foods. There are several reasons for this. One is that it’s cheaper compared to buying foods that still needs cooking. Another reason is that it does not easily spoil. So, storing it is not that hard. Corned beef is …
Ore-Ida Hash Browns Southern Style Potatoes

Sweet and Sour HotSpot Coconut Fudge

Sweet and Sour HotSpot Coconut Fudge was …
Utz Natural Gourmet Medley Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
I am a lover of potato chips because I crave crunchy, salty snacks. Of course we all know chips are not good for us. So every time I eat some, I think, “This is the last time and from now on I will be ‘good’ and stop …
Mom’s Best Naturals Honey Nut Toasty O’s
Mom’s Best Naturals Honey Nut Toasty O’s is a cereal that looks and tastes very much like General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios. I personally think that the cereal has a better, more satisfying, flavor to it than the Honey Nut Cheerios cereal. The honey and almond flavors seem more …
Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms
I have always loved Brie cheese and when I found a pastry product by Damafro called Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms I decided to buy it on sale for $1.99CDN. I have to say this 225gram box was attractively packaged showing half a round pastry with a rich layer …
Tanqueray London Dry Gin
Tanqueray is the classic gin and as far as I know it is everybody’s favorite; it’s certainly mine. It is a real classic but it is expensive. Normally I dock products for being too expensive, but in this case I won’t for one major reason: cheap gin …

I bought an SM Bonus ready to mix Calamansi (Philippine Lemon) extract with honey today at SM supermarket. Well I was supposed to buy this another brand that is also manufactured locally, however I thought I should try the SM bonus labeled product of the same kind because it …
Hawaiian Punch- Fruit Juicy Red
Hawaiian Punch is kind of ehh.. wishy washy with me? I just had it today for the first time in about 6 months and I thought it was the best! I saw some earlier today sitting in a school trash can half dranken and it made me want some! …
Nestle Hot Cocoa Mix - Double Chocolate Meltdown
It’s been a while since I’ve purchased hot cocoa, but since I’m economizing by keeping my heat off most of the time, I thought I’d get some more to help warm me up during those colder moments of the day and/or night. I decided to purchase Nestle Hot …

While in my local Dollar Tree Store …
Chips Ahoy! with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Time and time again, it has been proven that peanut butter and chocolate go extremely well together. Reese’s candy pretty much thrives on this flavor combination. Nabisco has also taken advantage of this, releasing Peanut Butter Chips Ahoy where chocolate chips are put in peanut butter cookies.

I bought a pack of Mrs.T’s Potato & 4 Cheese Bleng Pirogies this week, for the first time. “Pirogies” are neatly folded pasta shells filled with a mixture of potatoes and, in this case, four kinds of cheese: cheddar, parmesan, romano, and swiss. It is a frozen product that …

Mapro Pineapple Syrup
My husband bought pineapple syrup to add on his cocktail drink. I was curious to taste it since it says on the ingredient that it has sugar, pineapple juice and water. So when you make a drink, you don’t need a sugar anymore because it is so sweet.
Mapro Pineapple …
Salted Egg (Itlog Na Maalat)
Salted egg is locally known in Philippines as “Itlog na Maalat” or “Itlog na Pula.” The taste justifies the name of the food; the duck egg is made salty through a long process. The form of salted egg is similar to boiled egg, the difference is the color. Salted …
M&M’s Plain Chocolate
This brand has been around for ages. I think I started eating M&M’s when I was still a little kid. For some reason, this has always been one of my favorite chocolate pieces. More so than Toblerone, kisses and such. (Although I would have to say that the plain …
Walker’s Steak and Onion Crisp
Visiting the UK brought me many new experiences, including new foods and beverages. I was surprised at just how differently our cultures eat! One thing seems to be universal though, chips. I am referring to what we call potato chips—“ they call them “crisps”
My partner brought …
Kroger Lite Vanilla Yogurt
This is one of my favorite yogurt flavors to enjoy during the day! Vanilla is a flavor that I often times can’t seem to get enough of, and this vanilla yogurt from Kroger is simply delicious. There’s a very rich vanilla taste despite the fact that it’s a fat …

Swiss Miss Hot Milk Chocolate Mix with Mini Marshmallows

Sainsbury’s Basic Muesli Breakfast Cereal

Pringles Baked Wheat Stix - snack food
Pringles Baked Wheat Stix - Honey Butter flavoured taste a bit odd, to be honest. Like crackers with butter and honey on them I guess. (Although they are sticks, obviously). There’s a satisfying crunch to them and enough in the package to share with another person and still feel …
Shur Fine Buttery Syrup 24 ounce bottle
We love to have the occasional homemade pancake or waffle in my house, while these are a treat for us we have found that we must have syrup to go on them. Before a trip to the grocery store one day my husband expressed an interest in pancakes, but …
Asian Noodle Stir Fry: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Asian Noodle Stir Fry is not one of my favorite dishes by Amy’s Meals. The portion is to small and it does not fill me up. To me this makes it a bad meal because it is 300 calories. I do not like that because I would …

Dill Pickles
There are big and small evils in this world. One of the small but unavoidable evils are Dill Pickles In Sandwiches. I hate dill pickles to begin with, and I especially detest them in sandwiches. They taste sour. They make my face twist. They also have this wicked tendency …
Carosel Gourment Caramel (Vanilla)
When looking at recipes some of them call for melted caramels and I never try those recipes simply because a whole package of caramels are pretty expensive here in my country sine this particular type is imported.
My grandparents had decided to come on vacation and one of the many …

Like most American families we traditionally purchase a turkey at least once a year. I’m not sure of how we decided but for our family we eat turkey every Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas. We have tried most brands of turkey available in our local supermarket but my personal …
Kellog Special K: Pastry Crisps

My absolute favorite type of Easter candy is the Cadbury mini eggs. I’m sure you’ve seen them, in their dark purple bags in grocery and department stores around Easter time. They usually seem to disappear fast because a lot of people them! The eggs are small …
Maruchan Ramen Shrimp Flavored Soup

When …
Cadbury 3 In 1 Hot Chocolate Drink
It has been my morning ritual to drink hot chocolate together with newly baked wheat bread. When I am traveling to western countries during winter season, a cup of warm chocolate is the best thermal blanket for me. This is one of the most important beverage I would have every …

Keebler’s Chips Deluxe Chocolate Lover’s Cookies
I just recently “discovered” this particular flavor of this brand and I’d have to say, I like it more than other brands of cookies. I used to be a big Chips Ahoy fan but for some reason , they changed the way they make the cookies. Now, when I …
