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 …
Voortman Almond Krunch Cookies

Lasco Green Peas 8.5oz tin
Lasco is a brand that I can always count on to provide my family and me with the cheapest products. Nevertheless, I don’t usually think of all of them as the best tasting, but some of them are passable. Their green peas is one of them. I never bought …
Gilbey’s Vodka
I like to drink Gilbey’s Vodka a lot. This brand of vodka is very good and and at a cheap price. Now Gilbey’s Vodka is not as high quality as other brand of vodka but it’s still good. The thing about this vodka is that it does get you buzzed. …
Sargento - Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
Sargento - Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese is the only type of cheese that I use when I have the time and urge to make a homemade cheesecake. If I do not have the cheese on me at the time, I simply do not make the cheesecake and I only …
Arby’s Value Soft Drink
Okay. I have a beef, a big beef, and I regret to say that it has absolutely nothing to do with hamburger, sirloin burgers, or any other food that has anything remotely related to beef. Rather, my beef is with this so called Arby’s Value Soft Drink.
Value? …
Mountain Holler
I’m normally a Mountain Dew drinker. But, brand name soda is getting expensive lately and I can’t always find it on sale.
Looking to stay within a budget, I have once again switched back to a more generic version; Mountain Holler.
The thing I like about Mountain Holler (sold here at …
Schlotzsky’s Angus Roast Beef & Cheese sandwich
Many years ago, I fell in love with Schlotzsky’s Roast Beef and cheese sandwiches. I used to love them not only for the wonderful tasty sourdough bread, but because their “special sauce” was so tangy. At any rate, I decided to order another of these. …

Waves Garlic Wafer
My husband likes to eat chips to match with any authentic Indian curries and dishes. Most of the Indian cuisine offers side dishes like papad and chips and I found it really great because most foods are spicy hot and chips tend to neutralize the chili that my tongue …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Garlic Shrimp
Easy Express Skillets Garlic Shrimp is not exactly one of my favorite meals. I have had it on occasion, but I personally do not think it is that tasty overall. For one thing, the shrimp does not have a whole lot of flavor. It does not even help if …
St. Louis Bread Company Cuban Chicken Panini
This Panini brings two cultures together: italiano and cubano. This sandwich is served on focaccia Italian bread/flatbread) with Cuban-inspired fillings (smoked chicken, ham, pickles, mayo and Swiss). The best part of a Panera sandwich (be it their signature, café or Panini) is the bread. They specially …
Despar Frollini Noir cookies
I go mad about chocolate chips and I really like cookies so you can imagine that I adore chocolate chips cookies. Although these cookies are very popular in USA here in Europe they aren’t so it isn’t very easy to find them. I used to buy cookies with chocolate …
Waffalo Bill classic wafer with chocolate
Sometimes I really need something sweet but if I buy a box box of cookies or something like that I eat most of the cookies from the box, and that’s not really good for my diet so I decided to buy smaller packings.
Yesterday I went to a big store …
Oscar Mayer Wieners with Turkey, Pork & Chicken
I like the Oscar Mayer Wieners brand of hotdogs, they can be a little pricy, but the taste is always good. The turkey, pork & chicken variety is probably the cheapest, I bought 2 packs for $3 several days ago. The hotdogs are sold in packs of 10; actually, …
St Ivel Utterly Butterly Spreadable Butter
The taste of pure butter is lovely but these —˜spread straight from the fridge’ buttery spreads are very useful to have. For example, if I am in a rush making my lunch for work I don’t want to be messing around with hard butter ripping the bread to …
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 …
Season’s Choice Shredded Hash Browns
These frozen shredded hash browns are pretty decent, although not truly delicious or anything like that. The bag is twenty-six ounces, so there’s quite a lot of shredded hash browns in a bag. Being made out of potatoes, hash browns really don’t have much flavor alone, regardless of whether …
Nabisco Reduced Fat Oreo Cookies
I must admit that this purchase was a complete mistake. I’m afraid I’m becoming my mother, intending to pick up one thing and then accidentally getting the wrong thing. I didn’t realize my mistake until I bit into an Oreo. Instantly, I thought, “Huh? This …
Homestyle Peanut Punch Drink
Although I would not call it my favourite kind of drink, I still like having a good peanut punch drink once in a while when I have a crave for it. I usually see a few cheap brands that make it, and a few of them do not taste …
Junior Mints
Creamy mint in pure chocolate is how Junior Mints are described. These small candy treats are one of two boxed items that I’ve purchased consistently since childhood. As I’ve said before, I love a good mint. It’s just a taste that I’ve always enjoyed.
Back when I …
Log Cabin: Original Syrup
Log Cabin: Original Syrup is one of my absolute flavor syrups to use. The reason it is a real favorite of mine is because the syrup is very rich and it is one of the thicker syrups on the market. It is syrup that greatly enhances my enjoyment of …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice
Minute maid has been around for quite some time. It’s actually a big brand in the States and my dad would actually buy the concentrated type that you put in the freezer.
Just recently though, Minute Maid launched their orange pulpy juice and I was one of the first …
The Glory of Five Roses Tea
Aah Five Roses tea…. The very flavor of home and comfort. I have been drinking this tea since I was a wee young thing, running around the house with my tea bottle hanging from my lips - 3 parts milk to 1 part tea. Morning, noon, …
Great Value Instant Garlic Butter Potatoes
I love eating mashed potatoes with any meal, however it takes a lot of work to make them. I don’t always have time to boil potatoes, peel them, mash them, and cream them. Sometimes I just need a quick substitute to homemade mashed potatoes. I tried the Great Value …
Jack n’ Jill Spuds Sour Cream and Chives
When I was in high school, I started becoming concern with my health and diverting attention to healthy foods. With the help of my school, which started banishing junk foods in the canteen, I gave up eating junk foods. I would rather nimble bread or popcorn when watching TV. …

Goya Chocolate with Raisins and Nuts
Some of my reviews in the past are with Goya chocolates because it is way cheaper than other brands and it taste good too. However, it is also depends on other flavor. I tried Goya chocolate with raisins and nuts together with other Goya products last Sunday and this …
Mars Planets Chocolate Balls (New)
Chocolates from Mars are not new, but the latest is the Mars Planets Chocolate Balls. I can’t get enough of this crunching tasting chocolate. But got to limit though, as I am on a diet regime.
If you are looking for a diet chocolate, this is not your …
Ben & Jerry’s Single-Serve Ice Cream
My wife and daughter ran out to Walmart yesterday afternoon and came home with Ben & Jerry Single-Serve ice cream cups as a treat.

Kroger Brand Crunchy Peanut Butter
I am a huge fan of peanut butter. I love it on bananas, in vanilla ice cream-banana shakes, on crackers, apples, celery and of course with the jelly between two slices of bread. I also have been known to eat peanut butter-honey sandwiches and the most yummy grilled peanut …
Land, Soft Fruit Cheese, Apricot
I like the taste of Apricot very much and I buy almost always yogurts with taste of apricot. Before today I never eat apricot soft fruit cheese. I never buy soft fruit cheeses because they are very little and they seems to me like a babies food. I was …

Magnolia Pancake Plus
One in a while I indulge myself and eat a sinfully delicious stack of pancakes. I cook for one, but most packaging are for several people. I was glad that I saw Magnolia Pancake Plus in a 200g packaging in the grocery. The label said that it can make …
Blend 45 Coffee
I do not regularly buy Blend 45, I choose to buy Nescafe Coffee and Great Taste brand of coffee. The reason why I bought one it is either I get tired of tasting Nescafe or Great Taste is not available. In addition, if I want to save money I …
Snickers (Chocolate Bars)
I would admit, I am a chocolate monster. I do love chocolates and one of them is this very irresistible Snickers bars. Even if my husband would joke it is not good for my figures, I would just laugh it off and would not mind. After all he himself …
Pringles Stix Jalapeno
The jalapeno-flavored “stix” from Pringles are just as tasty and good as the cheese-flavored “stix”. The jalapeno flavor has been pretty successfully transferred to these “stix” and they’re even a little hot and biting in taste. They do remind me of jalapenos, and I’m glad that these “stix” turned …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Sweet & Sour Chicken
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Sweet & Sour Chicken is a meal that could have been quite satisfying, but because of some problems here and there, it ended up being a meal that I likely will not purchase a second time. The chicken might very well be tender, but despite …

Jewel Chef’s Kitchen Pizza
Jewel Chef’s Kitchen Pizza is just as good or even better that take out pizza. Now, this pizza might now look like much in the freezer section at the store, because it’s a very thin crusted pizza and the wrapper is just plain cellophane, but when you take …
