Tazo Passion Tea

Odom’s Tennessee Pride Sausage

Nissin Cup Noodles
Nissin Cup noodles are rally one of the best instant noodles in the market; a small cup is about 7 pesos more than the packed instant noodles; at least I don’t have to look for a container where I can cook the noodles with. Nissin Cup Noodles have chicken …
Hostess Fruit Pies - Apple
I find these Hostess Fruit Pies - Apple variety to be a little on the dull side, both inside and out. The crust is pretty bland and boring while apple inside tastes as if the flavor is not quite real. The apple flavor does not come across as being …
Ferrero Rocher
This truffles were always my favourite ones. There are different kinds of them, with dark chocolate and hazelnuts, with milk chocolate and hazelnuts and now they made few new flavours like the one with coconuts, pistachios, lemon and almonds.

McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish
The Filet-O-Fish is a fish burger that’s been sold in McDonalds since 1962. It’s a great alternative for people like myself who don’t eat meat, and it’s been one of my favourite fast-food snacks for as long as I can remember.
The bun is nice and soft, and is …

Crystal Gyser Natural Mineral Water
I started drinking mineral water last year and, quite honestly, it didn’t grab me. I tried a few brands but I never understood the appeal. Then, I found this brand.

Nescafe Body Partner Premix Coffee

Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar
These Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar variety are much, much more tolerable than the downright hideous chocolate variety that I simply could not possibly stomach. While I did just say they are much, much more tolerable, I did not say they were excellent, or even great. The powdered sugar …
Applebee’s Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich
I tried almost every chicken sandwich that has been offered at sit-in and fast food restaurants. When someone gave me a gift card for Applebee’s for my birthday, I tried their Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich. It sounded hearty and promising —“ grilled chicken breast with BBQ sauce …
Sorrento Cheese Sticksters

Mountain Dew Throwback
Those who grew up in the 60s and early 70s remember the delicious taste of Mountain Dew out of a bottle with a hayseed on it. The hicks in the sticks ambiance associated with that Mountain Dew apparently did not jibe with the evolution of American drinking habits during …

L’oven Fresh Mini Muffins Chocolate

I went shopping with my daughter the other night and picked up a few things for myself as well. Decided to get some more soda for the house, but also something refreshing for me as I was very thirsty at that time. It’s not quite as bad …
Malt-O-Meal Strawberry Cream Mini-Spooners
When shopping for cereal, I tend to first check out what the Malt-O-Meal brand has to offer. The big bags that the cereal comes in tends to work out to being a better value than the cereal that comes in a box, and the Malt-O-Meal Strawberry Cream Mini-Spooners is …
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 …
Hill Country Fare Kettle Corn Popcorn
