Joe Pucci & Sons Seafood Smoked Chubs
Just like with my review of Nova Smoked Salmon, I must warn that this product is not for everyone, and those unfamiliar with the concept of eating cold smoked fish will probably lack the courage to try it. Joe Pucci & Sons Seafood Smoked Chubs are sold in packs …
Entenmann’s Holiday Pop’ems
I did not care for Entenmann’s Holiday Pop’ems very much at all. The reason I did not like them too much is because there is just not a lot of flavor to the pop’ems. These pop’ems are covered in sprinkles and aside from looking colorful and nice, these sprinkles …

One thing that I like about the brand Hilo is that they have released a few good quality products and sold them at a price that is lower than any other brand at most Hilo supermarkets I have visited islandwide. However, there are still one or two Hilo …
Morrisons Value Ginger Biscuits

Linda Mccartney Deep Country Pie 664g

Baci Perugina White, pralines by Nestle

Pringles Potato Crisps - Ranch

McDonalds Big McMeal
This is what I like to call “the convenient meal”. I am inclined to this type of nomenclature because of the mere fact that the Big McMeal is just that for me, a convenient meal.
It is filling, for everybody, funny enough, I mean I personally eat mountain loads of …
Stouffer’s Pastaria 3 Cheese Macaroni
As frozen foods go, Stouufer’s Pastaria 3 Cheese Macaroni is very…convenient. It was easy to prepare in the microwave - I poked a couple of holes and then stuck the package in for 4 minutes. No problems. (These can also be prepared in the oven, which I haven’t tried).

We use a lot of salsa …

Pillsbury Brownies
I love a great brownie. However, cooking isn’t always my thing and, even worse, I hate cleaning. As a result, nowadays, I’m always looking for good food that I can cook without really cooking and definitely without cleanup, or at least not much.
For years, my favorite was …
