Lean Cuisine Baked Chicken
I usually like Lean Cuisine meals, but this one was disgusting. I didn’t even finish it, and that’s really saying something for me! Lean Cuisine’s packaging describes this meal as “chicken tenderloins with cornbread stuffing & whipped potatoes.” There wasn’t one thing I liked about this meal, so let’s …
Best Choice Hickory Smoked Kielbasa Sausage
I love to use kielbasa sausages in a variety of casseroles, soups and stews. I also use these sausages when I make some of my specialties like red beans and rice. One problem is that I often pay more than three dollars for higher priced brand of this food. …

Checkers’ Big Buford
Of all the burgers I’ve had at Checkers, my favorite would definitely have to be the Big Buford. There’s something about the double-stacked burger that makes my mouth water, and I think it definitely has something to do with that famous Checkers’ seasoning.
The Big Buford is a double burger …
Barilla Tri-Color Bow Tie Pasta
I like to eat a lot of pasta, and through my many travels down the pasta aisle have decided that the barilla bow tie pasta is one of the best. This tri-colored pasta is white red and green, with pasta that is supposed to have a spinach and tomato …

Tropicana 100% Pure Orange Juice with Calcium & Vitamin D

Campbell’s Chunky Grilled Chicken and Sausage Gumbo Soup
So, put yourself in my shoes for a second. It’s a workday lunchtime, with me so far? (Don’t nod off!) You’ve done almost all the usual fast food drive-thru alternatives, had exotic yummies like Miso, but what do you do when even Miso is starting to become old hat. …

Mrs. Freshley’s Frosted Creme Cakes
Although I would not say that I am crazy about Mrs. Freshley’s Frosted Creme Cakes, I do purchase them from time to time. What I like about the creme cakes is that they have a thin, sweet icing glaze that surrounds the chocolate exterior. The glaze and the chocolate …
Maruchan Creamy Chicken Ramen Noodle Soup
I am a big fan of ramen noodle soups, and Maruchan is my favorite brand of these soup products. I have tasted and enjoyed many flavors of Maruchan ramen noodle soups, such as picante chicken, beef, oriental, and others. However, until last week I had never seen the …
Haagen Daz’s Mint Chip Ice Cream
Haagen Daz serves and sells premium and quality ice cream, but I do find their classic flavours too average for my tastes and palate, so I had tried this Mint Chip ice cream and am happy to report that it lives up to it’s name and is equally delicious …
Lemon Square Power Pops Cereal Snack Milk Flavor
I admit the first time I get to taste Power Pops I was enthusiastic about it because this is the first time I get to taste hard rice that is sweet. Power Pops is a crispy chewy cereal snack with real butter and milk. It contains 100% cereal goodness …
Diet Mountain Dew
In my lifetime spanning 55 years on this earth I have consumed more than my fair share of soft drinks. I have tried them all. It wasn’t until my doctor told me to lose some weight or go on medication to control my sugar that I even considered a …

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 …
Orville Redenbacher’s Mini Smart Cakes
This week I obtained a package of Orville Redenbacher’s 100 Caolorie Mini Smart Cakes to sample. These snack treats came in a colorful, high quality pouch that was sleek, but a little difficult to open. This was a sample packet, though, so it’s not necessarily how the …
Spaans Spiced Windmill Sugar-Free Cookies
Once more, for the third time exploring my near diabetic Papa’s arsenal of store-bought holiday treats, we have Spaans Sugar Free Spiced Windmill cookies next on the buffet line. (For clearer context, see my other Spaans cookie reviews, such as Lemon Chiffon and Ginger Bars.)
So…how does this latest “commandeered …
Original Skittles (Red Wrapper)
They say that upon biting into just one, you can taste the rainbow. I can assure you, they are NOT telling a lie. Skittles are basically M&M’s that are fruity, I don’t think I need to explain what an M&M is.
I think these candies are so good, because you …
Parmalat Diet Yoghurt
I love to consume yoghurt. And yes. I love the healthy one. In Chile, I love this Brand: Parmalat. I consume the Diet Yoghurt. I always buy in big bag, 1 litre. Yoghurt is one of the item that I must have in my refridgerator. Consuming yoghurt in daily …
Mrs. Freshley’s Peach Pie
I did not care for Mrs. Freshley’s Peach Pie all that much. The reason that I did not care for it is because the peach flavor was not what I was expecting. Although I am really not all that crazy about peaches, I do enjoy having them once and …
Stouffer’s Sesame Chicken
Stouffer’s Sesame Chicken is a meal that I most likely will not purchase a second time. The reason I will not be buying this frozen dinner again is because of the sweet and sour sauce. It is just too much for me. I do not like how the sauce …
Healthy Kitchen Experience
I was curious how vegan restaurants started to sprout all across the Metro. I found Healthy Kitchen because their Boca burger is included in the 10 “Must-Try” veggie burgers in Manila and was hailed by PETA as the best tasting veggie burger in their Golden Buns Awards. Sounds interesting …
Barilla Plus Farfalle Pasta
Barilla Plus Farfalle is a new kind of pasta. It is made with multiple kinds of whole grain flours, including typically semolina flour, oat, barley, and spelt flour. It also contains flaxseeds and lentil and chickpea flour, which I think makes it unique among most typically packaged pastas. These …
Nestea Zero
I seen the Nestea Zero commercial on T.V., and it stated that it had no calories and no sugar, and that it tasted the same as the original Nestea. I really didn’t think I would like it the first time I tried it. But I finally gave it a …
Fuze Slenderize: Cranberry Raspberry
I tried this beverage of Fuze Slenderize: Cranberry when seeing it in albertsons, in the beverage to go section for a $1.50. I’m no stranger to the brand of of Fuze, since they do make pre-made ice tea. Not only that but I am a fan of berry juice, …

ACT II Popcorn
Let me start out by saying Act II microwavable popcorn isn’t normally our brand of choice. When it comes to popcorn, Pop Secret still remains my brand of choice. However, when we were traveling recently, the Act II was the only brand we could find on the road so …
Dixie Fresh Cream Cheese
Ah cream cheese, without this delight of a product what would we or I..make homemade cheesecake from when I get in the mood for those fancy flavours I just never find in the supermarkets or bakeries. I like to have cream cheese in other forms as well and I …
Herr’s Peanut Butter Pretzels
I recently discovered Herr’s Peanut Butter (filled Pretzels), and I can probably now officially declare myself as being addicted. Can I just tell you how delicious these little nugget-sized snacks are? They are almost similar in look and size to the sourdough pretzel bites that Herr’s also produces, …
Michelina’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Snackers
Michelina’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Snackers certainly had the potential to a quality breakfast food, but unfortunately the Snackers, as they’re called, suffer from poorly flavored and mushy sausage that just isn’t appetizing. I’ve had Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers in the past, and with that breakfast …
Del monte tomato sauce
I loved cooking and one of the best ingredients I put in my recipe is Del monte tomato sauce. Del monte tomato sauce is made from 100% fresh tomatoes, which contains lycopene that reduces the risk of heart disease and some cancer.
It is more healthy that other spices, I …
Brooke Bond D Refreshing Round Tea Bags
I managed to pick up a box of Brooke Bond D Refreshing Round Tea Bags from my local bargain supermarket B & M for only about £1 recently, with 80 tea bags in the box. This is brilliant value and these will last me ages. I usually …
Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles Shrimp Flavor
If you are interested in a delicious and inexpensive meal option, consider Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles meals. They come in a variety of flavors and are available in my local supermarket for less than a dollar each. You cannot find a meal that is much cheaper than that. …
Right’s Bakery Ginger Bulla
I can most definitely say that I am not and have never been a fan of my country’s famous bulla cakes. However, these days I still eat them regardless of the fact if there is nothing else in the house that I can consume as a snack when I’m …
