M&Ms Dark Chocolate
M&Ms has been an institution as far as candy coated chocolates are concerned. Nowadays there are a variety of flavours to choose from. Be it with almonds, peanuts or those weird crispies which I haven’t seen lately.
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that my all time favourite M&Ms …
Tesco Value Flavoured Noodles
I like Noodles and I don’t mind even just eating a bowl of Noodles. I’m not the most fanciest eater anyway but am happy with Noodles, Pasta or Rice dishes. The other good thing is that they are quite cheap as well, so can be a filling snack for …
Old Grandad Bourbon
Many years ago, in Paris, I was staying at a hotel in the Latin Quarter when I noticed the manager trying to explain to a couple of young Americans that she didn’t speak English. As they didn’t speak French either, they were both a bit stuck. I intervened and …
Kelloggs Jumbo Eight Flavor Family Cereal Pack
This is a very good value. This cereal pack contains the following: Mini Wheats, Corn Pops, Rice Krispies, Cornflakes, Apple Jacks, Froot loops, Raisin Bran and Frosted Flakes. That is a decent balance of healthy and not so healthy cereals. What I usually do is mix two cereals together: …
Ben and Jerry’s Americone Ice Cream
I don’t often get a chance to buy one of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream pints, but every now and then when it’s on sale, I’ll pick out a flavor or two to try. Normally, it’s priced beyond my dessert budget and I have to pass on it …
Dad’s Oatmeal Chocolate Chip 37.5 g Cookies/Biscuits
I tried this for the first time. I never knew that these delicious cookies have been around since 1929. The package only contains two cookies, but I found them quite satisfying, indeed.

I have seen K …
Tesco Authentic Italian Quick Cook Fusilli Pasta
This is great pasta from Tesco’s own brand because it is so easy to cook and it just refuses to get stuck together. I am not a patient cook and sometimes I even forget to stir my pasta as I get involved in something else, but I have …
Betty Crocker - Bisquick Pancake Mix
Betty Crocker - Bisquick Pancake Mix is not a product that I will purchase again. I do not care for pancake mixes that require water to be added as opposed to milk. Milk makes pancakes much better and the only reason I purchased this mix was because the grocery …
Nabisco’s Ritz Crackers
Nabisco’s Ritz Crackers have been around a long time, and I’ve been a fan of these treats for a long time, too. A lot of folks like to eat Ritz with peanut butter, cheese, or some other filling, but I’m just a basic Ritz eater — give me …

Shiraz Wine (Trader Joe’s)
I really have no idea about where different wines come from. For years I would order Chardonnay, simply because I liked the light refreshing taste. Then I ventured out to explore red wines, like Chianti and merlot. But when I ran across the Shiraz wine …
Betty Crocker Bowl Appetit - Pasta Alfredo
I love Betty Crocker, which is one of my favorite brand names. I trust this company so am more inclined to try a multitude of products from them. One of their latest product lines is their Bowl Appetits, which is basically a microwave product that can be …

Yogi Tea
Yogi Tea when I first tried it I was very amazed at what a favorable tea it was. I love herbal tea’s and this one just took me away. They have many flavors and their tea’s can help cure the common cold. I remember last year everyone in my …
Ruchi gold sunflower oil
Ruchi gold sunflower is another cooking oil, which is also very good. My mother uses the Ruchi gold sunflower oil. The Ruchi gold sunflower oil is also very costly but contains less fat and also contains some recommended vitamins, which are necessary for our body every day. …
Liptons Side Kicks Potatoes with Roasted Chicken Gravy
Being British I have always loved any food product associated with the Lipton name and their Side Kicks Potatoes with Roasted Chicken Gravy is no exception. When this pouch of freeze dried scallop potatoes with accompanying pouch of gravy went on sale for only $1.39CDN, I just couldn’t resist …
Sargento Salad Finishers
My wife and I usually have salads with our dinners but, to be honest, they were getting a bit dull. That’s why I was glad Sargentos came out with their Salad Finishers.
For just $4, you get a good combination of meat, cheese and another topping (in our case, it …
Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust
Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust is made from a company that I trust for most things. I can make a mean graham pie crust from scratch, but sometimes you just do not have the time to do so. Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust makes it so simple …

Just yesterday I bought a box …
Arctic Zero Rocky Road Trip Fit Frozen Dessert
So recently I wrote a negative review on the Arctic Zero’s Salted Caramel ice-cream and I was basically saying that Arctic Zero sucks in general. But then I changed my mind, actually, so I’m writing this review to make it up to the brand and say some better things about …
Country Crock Loaded Mashed Potatoes
When it comes to brand name mashed potatoes I stick to Betty Crocker, but I liked the fact that the loaded potatoes had bacon and chives in it.
I purchased the Country Crock loaded mashed potatoes because I didn’t really feel like cooking one night, and I decided to take …
Great Value Sausage Breakfast Bowl
There is nothing like waking up in the morning to a home cooked breakfast , but who has the time to cook one from scratch. I absolutely love Great Value products , because they taste homemade and you can cook them in minutes. One of my favorite foods they …
Great Value Boil in a Bag White Rice
I was getting pretty tired of ruining rice. It is a food that I’ve always had a hard time cooking. It was always either too crunchy or too mushy. It’s hard to compliment a delicious meal with rice when you don’t even know how to make it properly. I …
Cedarlane Eggplant Parmesan
Cedarlane Eggplant Parmesan is a frozen dinner that I would recommend to any person that loves or just likes eggplant. Even though I am not the biggest fan of eggplant in the world, I do eat it from time to time and I typically do enjoy eggplant even if …
Twistos Baked Snack Bites Parmesan Garlic Flavor
In a previous review, I highly praised the asiago-flavored Twistos Baked Snack Bites. I felt the snack bites excelled when it came to both flavor and texture. Naturally then, I was excited to try the other flavors, in the hopes that they would be just as delightfully good. I …
Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies
I did not enjoy these Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies at all. The gingerbread cookies did not have the flavor that I expected them too. In fact, they pretty much had no flavor at all! Did they forget to add the ginger to the recipe, or something? The cookie …
Galaxy Chocolate
I have tried a lot of different chocolate in my time, and Galaxy, in my opinion has a great taste which is unlike any other chocolate I’ve tasted
Galaxy is owned by the Mars Company, and in some countries it sells as Dove. But here in the UK, the …
Blue Bunny BIG Neapolitan Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny BIG Neapolitan Ice Cream Sandwich is not really big on flavor, unfortunately. None of the three flavors here, the vanilla, chocolate or the strawberry really succeed in standing out in any way. I have had delicious vanilla, chocolate and strawberry from Blue Bunny before, and unfortunately, that …
McVities Jamaica Ginger Cake
The McVities Jamaica Ginger Cake is a classic as far as I am concerned. I remember it as a favorite from my childhood and I enjoy it now as much as I did then. As it says on the packet, the recipe has stayed the same for …

Taylor Fresh Organic Spring Mix
My wife and I recently got a tub of Taylor Fresh Organic Spring Mix lettuce given to us. It was quite a bit of lettuce and we wanted to start using it right away so it didn’t go bad. Unfortunately, I don’t think it is a product we really …
Kroger Baked Cheese Curls
I remember as a kid loving a cheese snack called ‘cornies’. The Kroger brand of Baked Cheese Curls is a product that is as good or better than the snack I remember for my childhood. The product comes in a 7 ounce bag, and the store often has the …
Bentley’s English Breakfast Tea
There are so many varieties of tea’s out there, and I have tried many of them. One tea that I find to be particularly delicious and soothing is Bentley’s English Breakfast Tea. It’s great with added ingredients and just fine by itself.
I had thought as a child that this …
Caribou Coffee Pluot Green Signature Iced Tea
I thought this tea sounded interesting, since I so rarely encounter items made with pluot flavoring. Pluot is a hybrid fruit that is a combination of a plum and apricot. When I happened into my local Caribou Coffee, they were giving out free samples of this tea to customers, …
Spice Island East and West Indian Groceries
Whenever I spend any time in a new city, we immediately start sourcing ethnic markets and groceries because my husband cooks many styles of food; we are always needing exotic and non-traditional ingredients not readily found in traditional grocery stores. In Edmonton, Alberta, we found Italian, Asian and …

Taco Bell Orange —˜n Crème Frutista Freeze
Having acquired a free coupon online for the Taco Bell Orange —˜n Crème Frutista Freeze recently, I eagerly gave it a go. Eager may not be the right word because I’m very skeptical about new foods and drinks I haven’t had before, but when you have a chance …
Great American Cookies Double Doozie

MorningStar Farms Veggie Bacon Strips

Stagg Chili Steak House no beans

Pringles Restaurant Cravers Onion Blossom
This is one potato chip that will leave you in need of some mouthwash or a breath mint! I really like the flavor and aroma that these crispy, non-greasy chips give off. When I open up a can, I’m hit with an appetizing aroma that reminds me of onion …
Stouffer’s Grilled Chicken Italian Panini
Stouffer’s Grilled Chicken Italian Panini is something that is quite unique as I never do see anything real similar to it in the frozen food sections of the grocery stores that I frequent. It is actually quite a delicious sandwich too, and I hope that Stouffer’s does not discontinue …
V8 V-Fusion Strawberry Banana Smoothie
I personally love smoothies. The idea of blending different fruits and vegetables is just awesome. Not only am I getting all of my nutrition in one cup, I get to experiment in the kitchen. I usually go for smoothies for health reasons more so than just for cravings. Sometimes …
