Betty Crocker Hershey’s Frosted Supreme Brownie Mix
I purchased this brownie mix for $3.15 at my local grocery store Friday night. We were entertaining guests and rather than spending close to $6.00 for the already made up brownies I decided it would be thriftier (And homier I might add.) to just make my own. As soon …
Dennison’s Chili
I was a cook for hundreds of people, and made excellent chili. The closest product available in stores seems to be Stagg’s Chili (a good one), followed by Hormel. I have also tried a few others. Unfortunately, I tried Dennison’s Chili, as well. My advice - DON’T. It’s pasty, …
Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts - Wild! Berry

Cafe Breton’s Gallete Don Quixote Gourmet Crepe

El Monterey Frozen Beef and Bean Burritos
Before you dive into the rest of this article gentle reader, I have a confession to make.

Great American Cookies Double Doozie
If you have read my previous review of the Great American Cookies’ products, then you will see how it doubles in this review. When I was in the mall where the Great American Cookies are sold, I would always see this sandwich cookie but for whatever reason I always …
hint - Watermelon
The watermelon flavored water sold by hint is not one of my favorite drinks out of all the flavored water drinks sold by hint, but, I have tasted worse from the company, so I would have to say then that this flavor is just about average according to my …
Lipton Ice Tea
This is what I like to call the universal drink as I have never somebody who does not drink tea and it is very convenient when posing as a cold beverage as well.

What I liked about this product: I’m a big fan of foods that are easy to make; especially if they can be made either in my microwave or …
Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars
Truly, these delicious ice cream bars do not taste diet in any way. Many of the light ice cream bars I’ve tried before have an icy texture that makes it obvious that they ice cream bars have more ice and less cream. But these Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars …
Slim-Fast Optima Cappuccino
The Slim-Fast Optima which is different than the original Slim-Fast drinks, is wonderful! Not only does it have fewer calories (180)compared to the original, but, it also controls hunger longer!

Nissin Chow Mein (Chicken flavour)
Nissin’s Chow Mein is just like those ramen noodles you get in the small packages but this one comes in a square shaped container which is about 6 inches long all around. The reason for this is so you can microwave it. This is supposed to be a quick …
Dreyer’s Rocky Road ice cream
Dreyer’s Rocky Road ice cream is more like a chocolate ice cream. The flavor is predominantly chocolate but it is not dark chocolate that Dreyer’s used in here. This is in fact once thing I liked because Rocky Road becomes more delicious by this lighter dark chocolate variety. The …
Millville Chocolate Crispy Oats Cereal
The Millville Chocolate Crispy Oats Cereal comes in an eleven point twenty-five ounce box for two dollars and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. They taste very much like the General Mills Chocolate Cheerios. While a box of the General Mills Chocolate Cheerios costs around two dollars and …
Bagel Bites Three Cheese Mini Bagels
I like these Bagel Bites. I have liked them for years, really. The three cheese variety is quite good, with the cheddar, mozzarella and Monterey Jack cheeses mixed in with sauce and sitting on top of a bagel. I do wish that the bagel was crispier, but then again, …
Lider Coconut Cooking Oil

Cotton Patch Cafe - Funnel Cake
Cotton Patch Cafe - Funnel Cake is something that I believe is only available at Texas Cotton Patch locations, although I am not entirely positive. The reason I believe it might be only available at Texas Cotton Patch Cafe locations is because the reason Cotton Patch is offering a …
Kroger Multigrain Waffles
I look forward to having these tasty and nutritious waffles for breakfast in the morning. Perhaps nutritious is too generous of a word, but the waffles are a good source of ten vitamins as well as nutrients and minerals as a result of the waffles being multigrain. Ten come …

Orville Redenbacher’s Mini Bags of Buttery Popcorn
We bought a few boxes of the Orville Redenbacher’s Mini Bags this weekend because they were on sale for $1.65 at our local grocery store. We usually do not buy popcorn, but for that price we felt like it was worth it, especially the boxes of mini bags because …
Wilson’s Cherry Tomatoes
I like making salads to go with dinner but it’s hard to find quality tomatoes around here; unless you pay a fortune at the farmer’s market.
That’s why I was pleasantly surprised by the Wilson’s brand of Cherry Tomatoes I bought the other day.
My biggest problem with tomatoes is they …
Peter Pan Creamy Peanut Butter
This is the best peanut butter I have ever tasted. Many people say that you can’t tell the difference between different kinds of peanut butter but that is not true. Different companies use specific ingredients to make their product taste unique. That is what the Peter Pan brand does. …
Great Value brand of Diced Peaches at Wal-Mart
Trying to eat healthy is sometimes a hard task to accomplish. Especially when our taste buds are craving something sweet. Which is why the Great Value brand of Diced Peaches fruit cups from Wal-Mart really surprised me. Not only was the product sweet, but it was affordable because it …
Cranberry Raspberry Juice (Kirkland Signature)
Juice in big gallon containers from Costco. That’s what this is. Surely you who go to Costco now know that anything “Kirkland Signature” means COSTCO and ginormous amounts of whatever it is, and in this case it is juice. I bought this for our housewarming party. …

Perk chocolates

Nescafe 3in1 strong
I really like coffee and all possible drinks made of coffee. I started drinking coffee rather late, when I was more than 20. It doesn’t seems to be late but today I see children 15 or 16 years old who have the habit of drinking coffee so I consider …
El Monterey Burritos Beef and Bean Family Pack
El Monterey Burritos Beef and Bean Family Pack is a product sold in grocery stores. The burritos sell at a price that’s very appetizing: eight come in a package for just under three dollars. One burrito is large enough and full enough for me as long as I have …
Kroger - Blackberry Pie
The blackberry pie baked straight from Kroger’s bakery is a little different from some of the other pies that the store sells. What separates this pie from say the apple or peach or blue berry pie is that it has a thicker crust to it. Now, I do not …

Nestle Kit Kat
Of all the ingredients that are combined with chocolate to make confectionary, wafer is my least favourite addition and I would usually prefer nuts, biscuit or caramel. But for some reason I love Kit Kats and I think it is because the chocolate is so thick that it …
Ulker Biskrem Cookies with Cocoa Cream Filling
I have seen Ulker Biskrem Cookies with Cocoa Cream Filling on the shelves of local grocery stores for years now and I always had the strange notion in my head that I have tried them before. Because of this thought I never bothered to buy them too often and …
Kellogg’s Crispix Cereal
Kellogg’s Crispix cereal used to be one of my favorite cereals. I don’t eat much cereal anymore. I am not really a breakfast person, like I used to be when I was younger. But Crispix has a lot going for it. It is very similar in style to the …
Hormel REV #3 Peppered Turkey Wrap

As a stay at home mother of a toddler who always wants attention when Mommy is cooking, I needed to find simple quick meals that I could make in minimal time. I used to make my own coatings and such for chicken but found that it was taking …
Tyson Bread Chicken Patties
In my opinion, there is nothing better than having an occasional chicken sandwich; however, not all brands who produce chicken patties are good. Originally, my mom started me on Tyson bread chicken patties, but it was I who would continue to eat them.
I like how the chicken patties …
Welch’s Sparkling Strawberry Soda
Growing up, I loved Shasta Strawberry Soda, but then they changed things and I believe they went out of business; I’m really not sure. Then I found a Strawberry Crush that I was able to get for a time, but on my last outing, the only thing I …
Dove dark chocolate
For those of us who love sweets, but are still somewhat health conscious, Dove dark chocolate may fit the bill.
