Tai Pei General Tso’s Chicken for Two
I have purchased several Tai Pei dinners in the past and, while not great, they usually have proven to be a filling meal when I don’t feel like spending a great deal of time cooking and don’t want to spend a ton of money.
So, when I recently discovered Tai …
Folgers Gourmet Supreme Coffee
I love a cup of hot coffee while I’m working, reading or watching a good movie on TV; it helps to clear my thinking and I become more focused on my tasks.
Today I decided to try Folgers Gourmet Supreme. As I was shopping the big red plastic …
Multi-Grain Cheerios
Starting off a day with a bowl of Multi-Grain Cheerios certainly isn’t the tastiest way to begin a new day, but it definitely makes for one of the healthiest. Out of all the Cheerio varieties, and there sure are a whole lot of them, and compared with the different …
Ocean Prince Fish Steaks in Lousiana Hot Sauce
These fish steaks are pieces of fish (sardines) cut into chunks, covered in hot sauce and placed in a can. Each can is one serving. I recently discovered this brand of sardines while on a family shopping outing and constantly on the look out for easy snacks I had …
New York Style - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Crisps
New York Style - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Crisps excel when it comes to the raisin portion of the bagel crisp but fall short in terms of cinnamon seasoning. For each bagel crisp, which is admittedly fairly small, a good number of raisins are crammed in. The raisins are tasty …
Lucerne Skim Milk 1 L
If you ask me, this is the best skim milk there is. Lucerne just makes the best milk, or maybe I shouldn’t say that, because their cows, not Lucerne make the best milk.
Of course, this skim milk incarnation should be fat free, after all, this is what skim milk …
Nescafe Instant Coffee
I am an absolute coffee lover and for me there is nothing like the first cup of sweet, black coffee in the morning. It has to be Nestlé’s Nescafe Instant Coffee. I can’t drink anything else in the morning, not even brewed coffee. I like brewed coffee for the …
Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix
I have tried almost all of the meal replacement shakes out there and none comes close to Herbalife’s Nutritional Shake Mix. There are more flavors, than just vanilla and chocolate to choose from. The have a berry, pina coloda, and cookies n cream. They taste great …
Albertsons Frozen Mixed Vegetables
Albertsons Frozen Mixed Vegetables are enjoyable in some ways and disappointing in other ways. For example, the corn and carrots are both on the dull side. The carrots have at least some flavor, but the corn might as well not even be there because they contribute nothing, pretty much. …
Keebler Special K Strawberry Snack Bars
I did not enjoy these Special K Snack Bars very much. According to the package, these bars are supposed to contain flavorful fruit pieces. The ones I purchased were supposed to contain strawberries. The reason I used the word “supposed” twice is because the strawberry pieces were very small …
So Delicious Unsweetened Coconutmilk
I’ve been trying different plant-based milks for the last few months and, apparently, I’m really picky since I don’t have a favourite yet. This milk didn’t find its way into my favourites either. Even though I like So Delicious and I think their coconut milk products are really nice, I …
Lemon Juice
This is the lemon juice that comes in the little lemon shaped containers. There is also lime juice concentrate which comes in green lime shaped containers.
I buy this in the large 945ml containers, 3 at a time. You can get them in a pack. Obviously, we …
Great Value Cornbread Stuffing Mix
We had pork ribs for dinner last night and, since they were a cheap brand that didn’t have much meat on them, we decided to make some extra side dishes to go with them just so we had a filling dinner.
One of the things we ended up making was …
Ben and Jerry’s Vanilla Caramel Fudge Ice Cream
For the last few years, I’ve enjoyed Dreyer’s Fudge Swirl Ice Cream. It was wonderful, and it was the only variety of ice cream that I’d found in decades that matched the marble fudge ice cream I’d enjoyed as a child. I was frustrated to learn just …
Cadburys Flake Chocolate bar
Cadburys do make the most delicious chocolate and this is one of my favourites. It comes in a lovely yellow wrapper but you must be careful when you open it. Due to the fact that the chocolate is very brittle and flaky where its name comes from it is …
Nostalgia Electrics Peanut Butter Maker
Do you want to save a TON of money? Do you like Peanut Butter? Then Nostalgia Electrics Peanut Butter maker is for you — and it is definetely for me. I absolutely love peanut butter and I thought I was buying the best brand of peanut butter …
Clancy’s Cinnamon Twists
Clancy’s Cinnamon Twists come in a three ounce bag for eighty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. The bag is certainly small and it seems the bottom of the bag is reached awfully quickly, but the cinnamon twists are fairly good. If you have a sweet tooth, then I …
Doritos Jacked 3D Jalapeno Pepper Jack
I am not a huge fan of spicy chips, but these caught my husband’s attention and he really wanted to try them. We were at Wal-Mart getting stuff for a pic-nic when we decided to go ahead and pick them up. They were actually pretty inexpensive at $2.88 for …
K Street Bagel and Cafe
Finally, I found a decent bagel in Washington, DC. Having grown up in NY and also being a big fan of a good bagel, living in Washington, DC for the most part means I have been deprived of one of my favorite treats.
So imagine my delight when …
Wata
“Wata” is a brand of bottled water in Jamaica which is bottled and manufactured by the Wysinco Group of Companies. The first time I saw a bottle of it I think was when I just started high school. I saw someone drinking it and I didn’t take it seriously …
Dreyer’s Limited Edition Bakery Treats Slow Churned Cinnamon Bun Fun
Cinnamon rolls have been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. Whether for breakfast or as an after meal treat, I continue to enjoy the soft-baked rolls with cinnamon layers and a sweet icing glaze. Not surprisingly then, when I came across Dreyer’s Limited Edition Bakery Treats …
Michelina’s Pasta & Chicken
Michelina’s Pasta & Chicken is a frozen meal that is flavorful and filling. I like to have it with a salad and some bread and rice too and I always end up being satisfied. There’s a lot that this frozen meal has to offer, but I’ll start with the …
C2 cold bottled tea
I’m Not into tea before . I have to admit that for me it doesn’t perfectly suit my taste on beverages I usually drink. Until one day that cold flavored tea almost flood the market different companies offering different brands, tastes, and flavor of the said drink. As pioneer …
Trader Joe’s Soy Chorizo
I’m no model thin girl, I love to eat. One of my favorite breakfast foods is chorizo. However in an effort to be more conscious of my health I sought to find an alternative to the traditional not so calorie friendly chorizo. Then I …
Aunt Jemima Griddlecake Sandwiches
These things are fantastic! We get the kind that are; pancakes, sausage, egg, and cheese. They’re in the frozen section, and they are easy to prepare - just pop them in the microwave for a minute and a half.
They taste just as good, if not better than, …
Pringles Light fat free original flavor
I’ve been a fan of Pringles for how many years, I’ve tried all the flavors but lately I saw this Pringles Light fat free that really caught my attention. Since its 50% fewer calories, the chips is made with olestra. I love Pringles since their chips are really made …
Chocolate Chip Cookies
When I was a little girl, I remember that my mother loved to bake sweets. She was all the time baking something new or different for us to try. She baked a variety of cookies, cakes, pies and other such delights. All of those baked treats tasted really good …
Kraft Tang Pineapple Orange powdered Juice
I love the combination of Tang Pineapple Orange powdered juice from Kraft. Before I am purchasing their orange powdered juice also but when they made this Pineapple orange as a combo It really made me surprise that combination is really good.Pineapple and orange are both rich in Vitamin C …
Wendy’s Chicken Temptations
Hello! I’m reviewing Wendy’s newest promotions, The Chicken Temptations line.
There’s three varieties: Sweet and Spicy Asian, Bold Buffalo, and Honey Barbecue. The only kind I haven’t tried is the Honey BBQ.
Looks?: The meal consists of about 8-10 “boneless” wings (chicken breast meat), and is filling. Of course it doesn’t …
Haldiram sweet and saulty snacks
Haldiram is the famous company know for producing the different varieties of salty and sweet snacks and desserts. I have tasted almost all the varieties of snacks and even the sweets of Haldiram productions. And I am glad to tell u guys that I liked all …
Lipton Pasta Sides
Lipton Pasta Sides are a quick and easy to make. They are also cheap. Eveyone in our family enjoys them. I especially like to stock up on them, when they are on sale at Price Chopper. They have a 10/$10 sale, so thats a dollar a bag. They have …
Marie Callender’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce - New Recipe
Previously, I’ve done a review for the spaghetti and meat sauce from Marie Callender’s, and now they’ve redone the product. This is the third redo that I know of in terms of product. Originally, there was the spaghetti and meat sauce and then last year they added …
Betty Crocker Halloween Candy Fruit Snacks
I will not purchase Betty Crocker Halloween Candy Fruit Snacks again because I find the snacks to be of poor quality. The reason that I feel that they are of poor quality is because I do not taste anything close to authentic fruit flavor. I am well aware that …
Michelina’s Wheels & Cheese
This is a very simple frozen meal, to be sure. I can’t even really say that it’s a meal even because just the amount of pasta that comes in a package isn’t sufficient to fill me up. When I had this frozen meal, I added a salad that I …
Alpha Bits Cereal
I’m a huge cereal lover and generally try to eat a healthy one. A couple of weeks ago I bought a box of Alpha Bits (it was on clearance sale at the supermarket) and boy was I glad I did.
This cereal is supposed to be for kids, who try …
Grandi Coconut chocolate bar
Grandi is a very cheap Croatian brand which you can buy only at Getro shop chains. Some of the stuff are OK but most of them aren’t. They usually have a very nice design with a small elephant on it. Grandi Coconut chocolate bar has a really nice little …
Chick-fil-A Waffle Potato Fries
The Waffle Potato Fries at Chick-fil-A are much better than the typical fast food fry, in my opinion. They are superior to McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Whataburger’s fries because unlike the fries served by the aforementioned fast food restaurants, these waffle fries do not taste horrid as soon as they …
Thomas’: Blueberry Pre-Sliced Bagels
I was disappointed with Thomas’: Blueberry Pre-Sliced Bagels for one very simple reason: the bagels did not have a sufficient number of blueberries to satisfy my expectations. More is generally better, and in the case of these bagels, more would have resulted in a better, more enjoyable experience that …
Great Value: Ripple Cut Potato Chips
The Great Value: Ripple Cut Potato Chips are very addicting! Once I start eating a few, a few quickly becomes some, some soon becomes many, and eventually, many becomes a lot! These salty potato chips are just very flavorful and good. I say that they easily stack up with …
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 …
Wondra Quick Mixing Flour by Gold Medal
I have a history of making lumpy gravies. I’ve tried sifting flour into it, adding little bits at a time etc and have not once succeeded in making a gravy that is lump free. Knowing how much I struggle with my gravies, my grandmother recommended trying Wondra …
Nestle Coffee Mate
The coffee creamer that everybody knows - it’s Nestle Coffee Mate.
Nestle Coffee Mate has been in the market for quite a while now. With its effective brand ad campaign using media advertisements, it outsells other labels of coffee creamer. And I must say that even without the media hype, …
Rocklea Chocolate (Milk Chocolate Rocklea Road)
My aunt who came from Australia brought this Rocklea Milk Chocolate Rocky Road. This was the first time I saw this kind of chocolates, and found it too big. The package says that is a combination of fluffy marshmallows, toasted peanuts and toasted coconut covered in chocolate. The package …
Fudgee Barr
I always buy Fudgee Barr for my kids, specially for my daughter. She brings this to school as her snack during her breaktime almost everyday. She like this a lot and brings at least two different flavors.
Fudgee Barr comes in a pack of …
Hostess Fruit Pies - French Apple
Just like the apple variety, the french apple pie made by Hostess is truly nothing to get excited about at all. Just as the apple variety boasted a somewhat artificial flavor as well as a dull apple flavor, this french apple variety does exactly the same thing. This is …
Old Jamaican Ginger Beer
One of my favourite carbonated beverages these days is a beverage by the name of “Old Jamaican Ginger Beer”. When I first tried the drink, I hated it because I thought the ginger and the carbonated soda together made the drink very harsh on my thirst especially. However, after …
