Recheks Food Pride Baked Chicken
I wanted to go to KFC last night for dinner and ended up in the lobby of the restaurant. But, after discovering a chicken dinner would cost me about $30, I ended up leaving (what the heck is with the high prices at that place) and went to Recheks …
Extra sugarless gum peppermint
I have been a big fan of extra gum for years now. Believe it or not, there was actually a time when I thought wrigley’s doublemint gum tasted good. Well, I guess the flavor was alright, but it certainly did not last very long! Also, it …
Ajinomoto Gourmet Orange Chicken and Fried Rice Frozen Dinner
When it comes to food, I can honestly say my main weakness is Asian cuisine. I cannot cook Asian food at home from scratch but I love dining out on it. Sam’s Club is known for carrying frozen dinners for just about any type of cuisine, so when an …
Witor’s Cuor di Mousse Yogurt, chocolate pralines
When I think of Witor’s brand first thing that comes to my mind are mini chocolate Christmas eggs. I have tried so many mini chocolate eggs but theirs are really one of the best, especially because they come at a very good price. So when the other day at my …
Amy’s Macaroni and Cheese
We are a family of macaroni and cheese lovers. We have tried every brand, every type, made our own, used frozen, boxed etc. Hands down Amy’s Mac and Cheese is a winner for my, my husband and my 19 month old son. Most people overlook a …
Nabisco Ritz Crackers
You know, today is the first time I realised Ritz were made by Nabisco as I have always assumed Ritz was the brand name of these delicious little nibbles. I quite often buy them as all three of my granddaughters’ like them and it’s one of the very …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bars, Chocolate Peanut
Although these bars are a little light on the peanut butter flavor, I do enjoy having one from time to time. The chocolate flavor seems to dominate over the peanut butter flavor a bit, but I can still taste both flavors so I am happy. These protein bars are …
Fruit Pebbles cereal
Fruity Pebbles. They’re one of those things you never really think to say “Hey, there should definitely be a review on this”. However, that thought process only lasts up until your first bowl. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Fruity Pebbles are the …
Talus Collection Pinot Noir
This 2004 California wine really packs a punch! This Pinot Noir is not bitter to the taste, but has a very high alcohol content for a red wine (13.5%). I suppose that is why it’s cheaper. At any rate, the wine has a sweet but woody …
Kelloggs Poptarts
I usually dont buy these kinds of snacks/breakfasts, but i did a few times because my kids begged me. I bought a three in one pack from Costco. There was strawberry, blueberry, and cherry. I dont remember how much the value pack cost, but individually a pack costs about …
Carte Noire Instant Cappuccino Coffee

Goya Almonds in Milk Chocolate

Vanilla Yogurt Burst Cheerios
I first tried Vanilla Yogurt Burst Cheerios when I went on vacation by my grandparents. It was a new item that just hit the shelves of grocery stores and my grandmother love yogurt, so she bought a box of the Vanilla Yogurt Burst Cheerios. I was skeptical of how …
Blue Bunny Vanilla Ice Cream, not for those with allergies
For the allergic in this world, eating ice cream isn’t exactly an easy thing. I was born with the peanut/tree nut allergy and always have to be vigilant when buying food especially ice cream. Since the FDA requires allergen labeling it’s gotten a lot easier for sure, …
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones are not the champs of anything, unfortunately. All three varieties disappointed me because the flavors just were not as rich as I had been hoping. The vanilla variety is not nearly as enjoyable as the all-natural premium ice cream, and that is …
MorningStar Southwestern Style Veggie Cakes

Goldilocks Golden Butter Cake
I love cakes and pastries and I have a very sweet tooth. Our friends had visited our new house and they had brought lots of goodies along with them for us to eat while watching movies too. They bought lots of cakes and slices and I had to try …
Barilla Whole Grain Spaghetti
Although this spaghetti costs about forty cents more than regular spaghetti, I started purchasing it once I learned of the benefits of a diet that’s rich in whole grains. Whole grains are very good for the body, especially the heart and in regards to lowering cholesterol. I eat spaghetti …
Froot Loops Cereal Straws
Froot Loops cereal straws are surprisingly yummy. I have to admit I was unimpressed with the idea at first. I thought it was gross. Now that I’ve eaten a few I can see their benefit. They are great for on the go, however, they are very fragile and crumbly …
Quiznos
Quiznos Classic Italian sandwich, you’ve got to love it! With the option of white or brown bread (I always go white) and whatever veggies you want on it before going into the magical oven. This oven turns a regular sandwich into a nice warm, mouth watering piece …
Kurmura Ladoo Rice ball Sweets
Christmas is just around the corner and giving sweets is one of the main things I wanted to offer for my lovely godchildren and for my beautiful niece. Kids do enjoy eating sweets so I prefer to give them something which is not purely sugar in content so that …
Folgers Coffee Singles Classic Roast Coffee Bags
I stumbled across a box of Folgers Coffee Singles Classic Roast Coffee Bags, one evening when browsing for a completely different product entirely. I previously had no intentions of purchasing any coffee, but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have more on hand.
Previously I had never heard of …
Tradewinds Extra Sweet Tea
I discovered this specific type of sweet-tea a few days ago at a local corner store in Orono, Maine. I had gone with my boyfriend to find something to drink after we had been rock-climbing, and we were looking for something cheap (and tasty!) to quench our thirst. Sick …
Cinnamon Life Cereal
One of my favorite kinds of cereal is cinnamon life. It comes in a couple size boxes. It is a square cereal. There are other types of Life, but I’ve only had the cinnamon type. It can be eaten with sugar and/or fruit. I …
Savoritz Vegetable Snack Crackers
If you have ever had the Roasted Vegetable Ritz Crackers from Nabisco, well then, you already know what these crackers taste like because they are pretty much the exact same thing in terms of taste, size and shape, only sold under a brand that’s not carried in regular supermarkets, …
Valutime Imitation Shredded Cheese
I was in the need for shredded cheese last night because we were having chili and my wife likes having that in the chili (I could always take it or leave it). Unfortunately for me, I only had a little bit of money with me at the time and …
Tonino’s Pizza Rolls (Cheesy Taco)
My sister just drove in today to stay for the weekend. So I went to the grocery store to stock up on snacks and other food for the kids. I purchase Totino’s pizza rolls whenever my sister comes to visit me. My sister has two kids …
Pillsbury Grands Flaky Cinnamon Twists
Pillsbury Grands Flaky Cinnamon Twists are a sweet and tasty after dinner treat that I look forward to every Sunday night. Now I love cinnamon, and these Twists have seemingly layers of it interlaced with the flaky soft dough. The surgery frosting excites my taste buds too. These Twists …
Angel Delight Dessert
A lot of my friends have a soft spot for Angel Delight as we are all the same age and remember it from our childhoods. I had not eaten any since the late 1980s but I recently treated myself to some. Angel Delight is no gourmet mousse …
Nabisco Wheat Thins
Nabisco has been putting out Wheat Thins in a variety of flavors lately (parmesan & basil, ranch, etc.), but I love the original Wheat Thins. They have a very distinct whole grain flavor. The box boasts that they contain 11 grams of whole grain per serving. It is also …
Clancy’s Pretzel Sticks
Clancy’s Pretzel Sticks is a snack food item that’s well worth a dollar thirty for a sixteen-ounce bag. A lot of pretzel sticks come in a bag that size, making it ideal for friendly gatherings or even just to have around the house to snack on or have with …
Jacquot Truffles
I bought a small box of Jacquot Truffles yesterday. Imported from France, these were supposed to be good! I couldn’t wait to get home and try them. Unfortunately, I was in for a disappointment: when I opened the nice golden box and the protective pouch inside, instead of truffles …
Zvecevo, Mikado, milk chocolate
Zvecevo is not one of my favourite brands of chocolate. Actually there chocolates aren’t special at all so I rarely buy them, they haven’t made anything new for ages. That’s why my surprise was great when I saw a great looking collection of chocolates in white wrapping with golden …
Metromint - Peppermint Water
Metromint - Peppermint Water is more or less about as good as hint peppermint water, and if I had to choose the better tasting flavored water, I do not think that I could. Much like the hint flavored water line, this water is also pretty pure and healthy. The …
Doral Ultra Lights
I have written previously on the Doral Light cigarette, and how much I enjoyed them. I decided that I would try one better and check out the Doral Ultra Lights. This turned out to be a mistake. while the Doral Light is still a tasty cigarette, …
GK Snacks Classic Cranberry Trail Mix
GK Snacks Classic Cranberry Trail Mix is something that I’ve only found in drugstores, like CVS and Walgreens, and for four dollars and ninety-nine cents, I can get a seventeen-ounce bottle. Contained in this trail mix bottle is a wide variety of sweet and salty, and above all else, …
Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal
One of my favorite cereals growing up was Captain Crunch. Somehow the sweet, yellow pillows of corn goodness satisfied my cravings for sugar, even though it was abrasive to the roof of my mouth. I could not stop stuffing my mouth with this cereal. However, the …
Chock Full O’ Nuts Coffee
I am not a huge coffee drinker like alot of people. I generally drink 2 cups in the morning and that is it. But I am extremely picky about the coffee I do drink. I know that their are many great brands out there, but my …
Green Tea Kit Kat
For those of you that do not know what matcha is, it is a premium quality, powdered green tea that is very popular in Japan. It is sweeter, is filled with anti-oxidants, has more amino acids, and is overall much healthier than original green tea (which is popular in …
Stouffer’s Lean Cuisine Shrimp
One night I needed a fast nutritious meal, so I bought a Lean Cuisine dinner. I’ve bought other Stouffer’s Lean Cuisine meals and usually had good results and taste I had high hopes for the Shrimp in a Creamy Seafood Sauce Meal.
Stouffer’s does some jazzy packaging. The shrimp dinner …
Cream Pure Cornstarch
Another kitchen wonder you will often see in most kitchens today is cornstarch. It is mainly used to thicken sauces and gravies. I have tried this Cream Pure Cornstarch once and from then on, continued buying the product. It is in a box (200grams) which costs …
Ortega Nacho Cheese Dip - Medium
At best, I would describe the Ortega Nacho Cheese Dip - Medium to be bland. There is really nothing noteworthy about this cheese dip, other than that I liked that it came in cups that could be placed in the microwave and heated up. I liked the simplicity and …
Skinny Cow Ice Cream Cones
I love my ice cream, and I’m serious about wanting it to taste good. However, as I get older I find myself being more and more health conscious. Sitting down to a big bowl of calorie-laden ice cream isn’t as viable as I was when I was …
Saint Orange Juice
Among the regular juice that I buy in the market, most of them are just watery and with artificial in flavor. But I happen to pass by Hypercity and saw a juice which claims 100 percent orange juice without added sugar or preservatives and that is why I bought …
Selecta Gold Series Ice Cream: Vanilla Almond
When I saw the commercial for this ice cream flavor, it looked like a perfect combination for me. I like vanilla and I like almonds. However, I reserved my judgment until I got to taste this one as I am not too keen about the caramel. Although, it said …
Hungry Jack Easy Pack Blueberry Wheat Mix
This “Easy Pack” mix suffers from two devastating problems that really add up to one big-time disappointing pancake mix. First of all, the mix calls for water and not milk, eggs and oil. Adding water as opposed to milk, eggs and oil ends up creating an inferior pancake. The …
McDonald’s McFlurries
McDonald’s McFlurries are like heaven in a cup. The fluffly taste and crunchy tidbits are a must-have on a hot, scorching summer day, instantly cooling you down.
They come in many different flavors, in fact, sometimes they even have limited edition flavors. I remember my first McFlurry. …
Miller Chill beer
Miller Chill beer is light 100 calorie beer that has a slight lime flavor to it. We bought it at Target for 10.00 for a twelve pack. This beer is really good if you like lime flavor. It reminds me of a light corona.
I think …
Smart Ones - Three Cheese Ziti Marinara
The Smart Ones - Three Cheese Ziti Marinara is one of my favorite semi-healthy frozen meal lunches. You can usually find it in the grocery store for under $2.00 and it is on sale quite often. Also, there are a lot of coupons floating around for Smart …
