Raw Organic Cacao Nibs from Now Foods
Trying new superfoods is pretty much my hobby. Every 2 months or so I order a bunch of stuff that is said to be really great for you and test it out. To be honest, most of the time the things I order don’t become my staples, but it’s still …
La Fonte Bolognese Sauce
My family love pasta and they like to eat Bolognese pasta. And when I made my own Bolognese, I could not make it with the taste that we normally made in Europe. Maybe the tomatoes that we get here are not the same tomatoes that they have in Europe. …
Kellogg’s Raisin Bran
I consider this to be a flavorful and somewhat healthy breakfast cereal and afternoon snack. In this cereal are a numerous number of wonderfully tasty and nutritious raisins just waiting to be enjoyed. My only complaint is, along with the great flavor comes a great number of calories as …
Publix Sweet Tea
One of the quickest ways to get a delicious glass of iced tea is to buy Publix gallon of sweet tea. Sometimes in the summer, it is just too hot to make tea. So on these scorching days, we tend to run out and buy a couple gallons of …
Campbell’s: Chicken & Stars Soup At Hand
Campbell’s: Chicken & Stars Soup At Hand is a decent soup that I turn to when I’m in a hurry and lack time to sit down and have something for lunch. I really like the idea of a soup in a container that does not require a bowl and …
Green Giant Roasted Veggie Tortilla Chips: Zesty Cheddar
I’m no stranger to the brand of Green Giant. Whether it be for frozen vegetables, frozen meals and canned vegetables and raw selections. Over the years it’s a name that’s trusted in my household for it’s healthy, and fresh quality. So to say when cruising the isle of my …
Bear Brand Sterilized Milk
Perhaps when one is asked what milk brand we are drinking, that will definitely be Nestle Fresh Milk Variants. I also have that in mind, but I’d say I settled for less - not in terms of quality but of cost. My boyfriend and I always drink Bear Brand …
Earthly Choice Organic chia seeds
I’ve been trying to introduce different types of superfoods into my diet, but I’m not the kind of person who would eat something that tastes like s*** just because it’s heathy and supposedly good for me. I believe that you just need to find the foods that you like and …
Walgreen’s Starlight Mints
The other day, I was reading an article that mentioned peppermint as a natural stress reliever. Since my wife seems to be stressed out a lot lately from our kids (they can be quite the handful when I’m not home to help her), I decided to pick up a …
Twinning Jasmine Green Tea
I customarily drink tea right after every meal. It gave me better digestion and an immediate relief of what I just ate. Green tea is the best of all tea because it is naturally rich in antioxidants. The latter can be an important agent inside the body to fight …
Encore Meijer Cola
My kids like to go grocery shopping with me. I think a big part of this is that occasionally I let them sneak something into the cart that we normally wouldn’t buy. I think another big part of it is that they like to grocery shop with me in …
SoBe LifeWater
I wasn’t sure how much I was going to like Sobe Lifewater, because every merchandiser delcares they’ve invented the next best thing since sliced bread. But I have to say, it’s actually pretty good. There’s some good and bad with it, as there is with everything.
First the …
Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles Savory Soy Sauce Flavor
Maruchan Yakisoba noodles are a great option for a quick and inexpensive lunch or even a dinner. I have tried a variety of the flavors, mostly based on some kind of chicken, such as spicy chicken, roast chicken, and just plain chicken and enjoyed all of them. So …
In-N-Out Burger: Fries
I have mentioned before my unbridled passion for In-N-Out’s Double Double. It is amazing. However, I do not only love burgers. I love french fries. They are the best form a potato can take. Potatoes should aspire to becoming french fries when they grow …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Chocolate Chip
This is a tasty and refreshing variety of ice cream that I enjoy having every now and then. Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Chocolate Chip is an ice cream that has real chocolate chips scattered about the frozen vanilla ice cream. The combination of rich vanilla ice cream and …
Heinz Baked Beans
I should imagine that this is one of the most reviewed items on anyone food agenda. Beloved of both adults and children, it has been around as long as I can remember and it is still the world’s leading brand of baked bean. Heinz is the manufacturer, of course. …
Sargento - Hard Grating Parmesan Cheese
Sargento - Hard Grating Parmesan Cheese is a cheese that I must actually grate myself as it comes in a common triangular-like shaped block. However, I think the added work is worth it! This is delicious Parmesan cheese! It is always fresh tasting, and speaking of taste, I just …
Landgut Sunflower Bread
I have been experimenting at Lidl again and tried this Sunflower Bread from the ‘Landgut’ brand. It was only about 79 pence and for that you get a packet of sliced, deep brown bread with visible seeds. I love seeds and am aware of the great nutritional …
Country Time Lemonade
I have given up drinking soda forever and substituted it with Country Time Lemonade. I love the flavor and it reminds me of my childhood. During those excruciatingly hot summer days my mom used to make these fabulous pitchers of Country Time Lemonade. That rich flavor of lemon seemed …
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 …
Keebler Fudge Shoppe Mini Fudge Stripes
These Keebler Fudge Striped cookies are the 100 calorie packs. Pretty good I’d have to say taste wise. Not my favorite cookie or sweet treat to eat out there but it can definently satisfy me. The cookies have an interesting taste that do taste pretty good if you have …
hint - Cucumber
I like cucumber in my salad, but as I quickly found out, I am not too fond of cucumber any other way - and that includes in drink form! I was not crazy about this cucumber flavored water because it simply had a taste to it that was too …
McDonald’s Hot Chocolate
This hot chocolate is definently one of my favorites out there to get for a warm winter treat, it is actually a little bit better then Starbuck’s hot chocolate in my opinion. They offer you either kind of milk- Skim or regular and I have tasted it with either …
Baker’s Corner Patriotic Confetti Cake Mix
This cake mix makes a delightfully moist and pleasant tasting cake. It’s a cake mix that’s specifically designed for the Fourth of July holiday. The cake itself is white, but it has little colorful dots throughout the cake. The dots are red and blue, and the cake itself is …
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs are really quite good really! I have tried Swedis meatballs before, and I have never really been all that impressed. However, these Swedish meatballs have quite a strong bite to them and the flavor is very much unhidden. I was really very surprised by just how …
Wrigley’s Orbit Professional with Calcium
I used to buy original Wrigley’s chewing gums all the time because they were quite cheap. I knew a shop where I could get them for 35 Euro cents only and that really isn’t much I think. But then the price of Orbit continued going up and up. Each …
Benexia : Chia Seeds
Benexia is the name of the brand of Chia Seeds, it’s available in a boxes of jar. I’ve been introduced to this product by my mother in law. This product is enriched with Omega 3, fatty acids, diet fiber, essential minerals and anti oxidants.When you try it by itself, …
Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice
I picked up some broiled chicken from the local grocery store deli the other day and, not wanting to spend a great deal of time making some side dishes to go with it, I decided to give Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice a try.
My opinion of the product is a …
Combos-Nacho Cheese
Who ever thought of combos deserves an award. Combos are a pretzle, that is made into a tube form, and then filled with cheese. These are really tasty, and fillling. i usually like to go on a search for combos when im on a road trip and stop off …
Chiquita Juicy Green Apple Bites
Yesterday I was in the grocery store looking for different fruits that I could snack on through out the day at work. I came across bags of Chiquita Juicy Green Apple Bites. Also they had red apples as well. On the package it says …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake
I really cannot tell the difference between this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake and the homestyle cheesecake. I cannot say that I know what they mean by the use of the word “real”. I originally thought that it meant that this cheesecake would be closer in taste …
White King Champ O Rado
If you are a busy mom with a busy schedule, try this Champ O Rado from White King. (for those who do not know, chocolate flavored porridge is called champorado in the Philippines) It comes in a box with two ready-to-cook pouches or in a box with …
Don Francisco’s Gourmet Vanilla Nut Coffee
This coffee is so magnificent and delicious. Don Francisco’s, Vanilla Nut Coffee, medium roast, 12oz for 4.99. They use the highest grade of coffee bean from the best coffee growing places.The first sip of this coffee will remind you it is worth 4.99 for 12 oz. When I want …
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea is one of my favorite kinds of tea to drink. It comes nicely packaged, in a very attractive box that contains 20 tea bags, each one individually sealed in a foil packet. The packets have a tear line and are easy to open. Inside, …
365 Everyday Value Chunk Light Tongol Tuna in Spring Water
Of all the canned tunas on the market - and boy there are are a lot - the 365 Everyday Value Chunk Light Tongol Tuna in Spring Water is my favorite. It is my favorite for more than just a few reasons. I think the reason I enjoy this …
Cedarlane Spinach & Mushroom Egg White Omelette
Cedarlane Spinach & Mushroom Egg White Omelette is a frozen breakfast meal that I have on occasion. It is a very filling breakfast omelette and it is also something that I find that I cannot eat too often because it does not always settle well with my stomach in …
Mountain Dew Kickstart Fruit Punch Beverage
I finally gave into the hype of Mountain Dew Kickstart beverage. At night while watching TV, I would often times see the goofy commercial about Mountain Dew Kickstart and then see the stands in grocery store with all the different flavors. The temptation proved to be too strong one …
Jimmy Dean Heat ‘N Serve Sausages - Regular
Jimmy Dean Heat ‘N Serve Sausages - Regular is another product I buy off and on from this long time breakfast favorite. With the passage of years I probably buy it less than I used to simply because I’ve discovered newer Jimmy Dean products that I prefer more.
This …
Sausage & Egg wrap sandwich
I shouldn’t be surprised that the sausage and egg wrap from Arby’s was actually more disgusting than I thought it would be. I was just really hungry and decided that I would try their breakfast. The actual sausage and egg was ok. But I was …
Fit & Active Reduced Sugar Fruits of the Forest Spread
I like this spread because it offers a blend of fruits, not just one. It’s not that easy surprisingly to find a spread that contains multiple fruits, but this one does, and I’m happy with it. In it, there’s supposed to be raspberries, cherries, black raspberries and red berries. …
Little Debbie Snacks Zebra Cakes
Little Debbie Snacks Zebra Cakes offer a welcomed change of pace from all the chocolate snacks and dessert items in the grocery store today. Now, there is some chocolate to be found on these cakes - they are called Zebra cakes after all - but the amount of chocolate …
Naturally Select Tropical Trail Mix
Trail mix isn’t something that I can find reasonably priced, and really, I don’t know if $1.00 for a 7 ounce bag at the “Dollar Tree” is even worth the money, but I do know that I enjoy this tropical mix and that every package I purchase disappears relatively …
Joy Ice Cream Cups
Unfortunately for me, my favorite grocery store has changed brands again, something they do from time to time, only this time it’s definitely not a good thing. The product in question is a box of ice cream cones. I really liked the other brand they carried, but …
Emerald cocoa roast almonds
I have been eating alot of almonds lately. I have been eating them because I have trying to eat fewer carbs and also almonds are good for your cholesterol. I have tried many different brands of nuts. The most recent almonds I have tried have been Emerald Cocoa Roast …
Cisco’s Crisp Choco in Almond Choco
I just recently went to Japan Home thrift store to look for cheap stuff. Little did I know that I was in for a surprise! As I looked over the food stuff they were selling, I saw that they had the Cisco’s Crisp Choco in Almond Choco flavor. I …
Pizza Hut Chicken Alfredo
I mentioned in another review that I ordered pasta from Pizza Hut this past weekend. Along with lasagna, I ended up purchasing some of their chicken Alfredo (they had a 2-for-one sale going on).
I wasn’t a huge fan of their lasagna (which is normally my favorite food), but this …
The Mars Bar
This is one of my favourites. It’s the Mars Bar. It must be about the most filling, sweet, gooey sweet on the market and people can’t get enough of it.
The Mars advertisements on British TV were famous: “A Mars a day helps you work, rest and play.” Of …
Nestle’s Cream
I first tried Nestle’s Cream because I could not find any light cream (specifically) in the grocery stores at Christmas time! I think everyone must have bought it all up to make home made eggnog. I personally wanted to make home made eggnog too but had to pass it …
