Richard Childress Vineyards Peach Salsa
When I took a recent trip to North Carolina, I stopped by the Childress Vineyards and picked up a few of their products made with local ingredients. The best of the best was their peach salsa. I have tried some of their other salsa types, but this one is …
Pillsbury Whipped Supreme Frosting - Vanilla
When it comes to store bought already made frosting, this one tops them all. I prefer a frosting that spreads evenly and smoothly across my fresh baked goods. So many times I have used numerous icings that pull the top of the cake up and mix in with …
General Mills Golden Grahams Cereal
I always used to love Golden Grahams when I was younger. This was probably one of my favorite cereals, because General Mills took the concept of graham crackers and put them in a cereal. I don’t know of any other cereal company that uses graham crackers in their cereal. …
Maggi Magic Sarap
I am using Maggi Magic Sarap whenever I’m cooking our food. I can use it in cooking vegetables, soups, fishes, chicken, etc. You can use this to any of you favorite dishes to add flavor and taste to it. I have been using this for almost …
Lasco Tomato Ketchup
My family usually buys the Grace brand of Tomato Ketchup since that is what we have been buying for years, and so far we have not tasted any just as good. However, one particular month Lasco TOmato Ketchup was taken up in the supermarket instead of Grace.
It tasted …
Grizz White Wine
Grizz White (and its fellow, Grizz Red) are simple Washington state wines that come in a screwtop. Love the convenience, but even more love the yummy wine. Normaly in my house we greatly prefer red, since it doesn’t have that nasty sour tang that we find Chardonnays …
Dominos Pizza brand “Chicken Kickers”
As a nice complement to their pizza, Dominos came out with various chicken snacks, such as Buffalo wings, averaging in price around $8 for a 10-piece box. One such snack is the “Chicken Kickers” box, a 10-piece box of boneless Buffalo chicken bites that include two kinds of …
Fox’s Glacier Mints
Fox’s Glacier Mints are one of my favourite brand of mints for several reasons. Firstly, they are a familiar brand that I have known since childhood, which brings back memories of the old tv commercial involving a polar bear. Secondly, I love how they look. Glacier …
Welch’s Grape Juice
I know that not everyone in the world is a huge fan of grape juice, but it is a juice that I enjoy drinking. One of the brands that I buy frequently is Welch’s Grape Juice. I’m not sure that there is really anything outstanding about the product, …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar
I had high hopes that the Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar would solve the problem of excessive amounts of calories found in the original Little Debbie Snacks Nutty Bar while still retaining the excellent and delicious flavor. Unfortunately, my hopes were shot down when I tried one …
Carl Jr’s Breakfast Burger
Though it’s been on the menu for several years, I’ve never had the Carl Jr’s Breakfast Burger until I used a coupon to try it out. I do love coupons, and when they provide me some value, they really make me smile. I actually just had this …
Country Life British Butter
I bought Country Life British Butter recently and was really impressed with how good it tastes and it might be my favourite butter from now on. I have purchased many cheap spreads in the past that serve their purpose well enough in ‘greasing up’ my toast or mashed …
Symington’s Mug Shots Pasta or Noodle Snack
Mug Shot is an instant pasta or noodle snack from the brand name Symington’s. They come in sachets and can be found widely in supermarkets and convenience stores. I buy mine from Tesco at 42p each.
Mug Shot is available in lots of different varieties, such as Chicken …
Honey Nut Cheerios Cereal
I really love eating healthy, but can’t help that I have quite a sweet tooth. General Mills’ Honey Nut Cheerios is the perfect balance for me: a sweet, crunchy cereal that has healthy whole grains which may be good for my heart. Plus, this cereal is naturally …
Snack a jacks Crunchy Curls Sweet Chilli Kick
This is a new product out in the Snack a Jack Snack range. Since I am currently back on a diet I am always on the lookout for new and different snack foods that I can nibble on. I’m not a big eater, but more of a little and …
Chobani Greek Yogurt
I have intended to try some of the “Greek” style yogurts I’ve seen in grocery stores the last year, but was afraid I might not like them as well as the tradional brands I am used to. I was afraid they might be sour or “too natural” tasting.
When I …
Danon Activia Low-Fat Yogurt
Ever had that bloated, get-out-of-my-face, I have PMS and a handgun feeling?
Well that’s where my body and head were when I saw my first Danon Activia Yogurt commercial. It claimed it relieved digestive issues and cleared the intestinal track. Activia also has an active probiotic culture …
Pillsbury Perfect portions biscuits
Pillsbury perfect portions is a great invention for single people. I have always had trouble when making biscuits, especially out of the can. You can’t open a can of biscuits and save any of them for later, because they get hard and spoil. It’s gets pretty …
Kasugai Muscat Gummy Candy
I’ve always liked the taste of muscats. I’ve never ate a real muscat before, but all the muscat candies I’ve eaten taste amazing. Muscats have this interesting fragrance/taste that’s different from normal grapes. Kasugai gummies are always soft, chewy, and juicy, and they always come in a cute heart …
Hostess Chocolate Cream Twinkies
I don’t know about you, but this is one of my least favorite times of the year. Oh, sure, it’s getting colder, and in my part of the world (Southeast Texas) it isn’t exactly Fall picturesque to be sure, but those aren’t the reasons I’m thinking of. Right now …
Dark Mayan Coffee
Growing up, my mother drank a cup of General Foods Instant coffee everyday. I use to love to sneak a drink when she was not looking. How that coffee always tasted so good to me. So when my sister gave me Dark Mayan Chocolate coffee …
Digiorno 12″ Rising Crust Four Cheese Pizza
It is really very nice to purchase a product that is advertised on television and in other forms as being something, in this case a pizza that is as good as delivery from a pizza restaurant, and find out that the company’s claims are in fact reasonable and accurate. …
Oreo Cakesters by Nabisco
I found myself wandering the snack aisle at Wal-Marts yesterday and marveled at all the new choices of snack cakes and treats. Since I often pack a few items in my son’s backpack and he always ignores anything I consider healthy, I figured I budge a little …
Fit & Active Apple Cinnamon Fruit & Grain Cereal Bars
I bought these cereal bars once after trying the very delicious blueberry cereal bars from Fit & Active, but I was pretty disappointed that the apple cinnamon filling. Although the cereal bars were not completely devoid of apple cinnamon flavor, there really was not a rich, deep apple cinnamon …
Kellogg’s Special K Cinnamon Pecan
This particular Special K cereal is not bad at all. It is not my favorite, but I enjoy having a bowl from time to time. The cinnamon flavor is quite rich and real, and having pecans in this cereal offers a unique flavor that a lot of cereals do …
Beef with Broccoli from Panda Express
Beef with Broccoli is a nice combination dish at Panda Express and I choose this most of the time when my health consciousness grows. I have learnt from the service staff that beef with broccoli has less calorie count and that is one good thing I have found about …
Mr.P’s Pizza
If you are eating on a budget, and by budget i mean, absolutly no money whatsoever then Mr. P’s pizza is a fabulous thing. Mr.P’s is the only pizza I have ever seen taht you can purchase for less than a dollar. In most cases a small sized pizza …
Nabisco Vegetable Thins Crackers
I’ve always enjoyed vegetable thins crackers, which have the tangy taste of veggies added to a wheat cracker that was strong enough to dip without breaking, but they were a bit heavy and harder to chew than some of the other thin crackers, like Better Cheddars. They came …
Michelina’s Budget Gourmet Premium Cheese Manicoti
When you hear someone say the word Manicoti, what do you think of? I know that I think of a tender, deliciously thin encasement of pasta barely containing a motherlode of fresh ricotta cheese mixed with a bit of parmesian and maybe some chives, all smothered in a sumptious …
Trader Joe’s Kalamata Olive Hummus
I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …
Little Debbie Banana Twins Cakes
I found these Little Debbie Banana Twins Cakes to be rather tasty, really. The banana flavoring is quite rich and real, and the cakes themselves are very moist and soft. The white creme that rests in between the cakes is a nice addition and provides additional flavor to a …
Cheeto’s Cheddar Cheese Potato Chips
I have been eating these for a long time now and I really love them. They have a nice flavorful taste. In my opinion the cheese combined with the crunch just makes them perfect. The quality is always great. I have never purchased a bag …
Lambertz Exquisit Biscuits, Craquer
I don’t like biscuit assortments very much because they have all types of biscuits and I don’t like some of them. But this one were awful, the box didn’t contain any good biscuit. They were all too sweet and with chocolate with too much butter. I never eat bad …
Millville Sugar Frosted Wheat Puffs
This is a great cereal at a cheap price. It’s a generic brand that’s only sold at Aldi’s stores, and you can usually buy an 18 ounce box for slightly less than $2. The cereal is very similar to Sugar Smacks/Honey Smacks. This is one of …
Breyers Buttered Almond
Breyers Buttered Almond is an ice cream variety that sounds tasty, but unfortunately it fails to live up to its rather mouth watering name. The problem I have with this ice cream is that there are not nearly enough almonds to be found. The ice cream certainly is not …
Dim Sum
The popular dish Dim Sum means ‘to touch your heart’ in Cantonese. It consists of a wide variety of dumplings, steamed dishes and other goodies. It has a combination of meat, vegetables, seafood and fruit. Classic dim sum includes bau, dumplings and rice rolls. They are usually served with …
Heinz Jalapeno Tomato Ketchup
Ketchup is probably my most frequently reached for condiment. While I like mustard and relish and plenty of other common condiments, ketchup has been my favorite since I was a kid. Ketchup isn’t just for French fries, after all, although I don’t go quite as far as some folks …
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 …
Amy’s Enchiladas
It seems like I can always rely on Amy’s to make yummy packaged food. The Amy’s Enchiladas are no different. Just good and natural.
I love their enchiladas. They take 5 minutes in the microwave, but do not taste like a microwave food. They taste like …
Nestle Crunch Ice Cream
As I’ve said from my previous reviews, I’m a huge fan of chocolates, ice creams, coffees, and the random combination of these. Another delicious discovery of mine is the Nestle Crunch Ice Cream. Our family trusted Nestle from our choice of coffee, milk, creamer, …
Penang Laksa
Penang Laksa is truly awesome. Spicily awesome. If you ever want to travel to any part of Southeast Asia, you can request for this menu: Laksa. Actually Laksa is a noodle type of dish served in a bowl mainly and it has a certain authentic taste that …
UFC Tamis Anghang Banana Catchup
UFC Tamis Anghang Banana Katchup is my family’s favorite. The perfect blend of sweet and spicy flavors is perfect for fried foods and salads. For long years, I’ve been using UFC Taming Anghang Banana Katchup because even my whole family approves its taste. They don’t like tomato catchup …
Manama Fruit Twist Green Lime Syrup
Hubby bought green colored lime syrup which he used to combine and mix with his own concoction of a cocktail drink. He bought Manama Fruit Twist Green Lime Syrup at Hypercity Mall in Malad.
I am not a fan of hard drinks. If I do, I can only appreciate ladies …
Act Two Microwave Popcorn
I just love eating microwave popcorn each night when i am in front of the television watching a good movie. Act Two is the only brand that comes in mind when it comes to popcorn. Personally, I love Act Two’s Kettle Corn flavor, butter and cheese flavors. They are …
Big Mo Chocolate Caramel Candy Bar
I managed to snag the Dale Earnhardt Junior Big Mo Caramel candy bar a few weeks before the candy hit the shelves. I’m a big NASCAR fan, so I couldn’t wait to try it. Oddly enough, I don’t care for Dale Earnhardt Junior at all, but I still wanted …
Kellogg’s Smart Start Strong Heart Cereal Original
This is a decent but somewhat bland cereal that I had once, but I likely will not purchase again due to the ingredients that are in this cereal. It has a number of different kinds of oats and the cereal is lightly flavored with what tastes like honey and …
All Natural Snapple Raspberry Ice Tea
Lately I have been drinking the All Natural Snapple Raspberry Tea and I have to say it taste delightful. The flavor of this ice tea taste just like freshly brewed ice tea with red ripped raspberries tossed into it. I find the drink to be very refreshing and healthier …
Fit & Active Pesto Chicken Flatbread Melt
Fit & Active Pesto Chicken Flatbread Melt is a frozen melt that I found particularly delicious. This is a chicken flatbread melt done right, at least, for me. It has some of my favorite toppings and ingredients and all in a relatively decent quantity too. First off, this sandwich …
Sargento Cheese Dips - Cheddar Dip & Zesty Ranch Bagel Chips
Sargento Cheese Dips - Cheddar Dip & Zesty Ranch Bagel Chips make for a tasty and memorable snack. This snack consists of three “parts”: the bagel chips, the zesty ranch flavor that can be found already on the chips and the cup of cheddar dip. What I really like …
CarbTrim Iced Tea Mix Lemon Flavor
In lieu of desire to lose weight, I am always on the look out for innovative weight loss products. I am not a fan of diet pills or slimming teas. I hope to achieve my goals the healthier way, that is through a good balance of diet and exercise. …
