Every week while I’m grocery shopping I try and search for products that are healthy, but that won’t taste like cardboard or leave me hungry after the meal. I scan the grocery shelves for the perfect product that I can be satisfied with and bring home as part of …

The container of this mint really caught my attention. It does not look like the ordinary mint or chewing gum. It is on a slim rectangular tin container. You need to slide the tin container in order to open it. It’s purple with a mold of a human body …

Ever since I first saw Great Value brats at our local Walmart, I have wanted to try them. But, even though they are a store brand, they have always been more expensive than the Johnsonville brats I normally buy so I never did.
This past weekend, however, they were about …

I adore Nut Brittle but not all of them, those with peanuts are usually very good but sometimes they are too sweet and even plastic sometime.
Nut Brittles are usually made of honey, sugar, white of the egg. Some of them taste a lot like honey while the others taste …

I will start this review by pointing out that Bisto Gravy Granules do not actually contain meat and so are suitable for vegetarians like me. I deprived myself of gravy with my (vegetarian) bangers and mash for years and years because I assumed that Bisto contained some kind …

This particular McDonald’s restaurant is almost always busy, probably because of its location on a university campus. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, it’s still a fairly clean location. (I’ve been in some McDonald’s restaurants that were not). So it’s your standard bright and cheerful McDonald’s (although it …

Bacon is a big thing for some folks out there. For them, adding bacon to pretty much anything and everything automatically makes what they’re eating that much better. Bacon has even been incorporated into some desserts! Now personally, I do like bacon, I just don’t like it so much …

After tasting Tiffany’s Classic Digestive biscuits, the first word comes out from mouth is ‘wow! One more please’. Because they are too good to resist. These mouth watering biscuits are made of natural wheat flour and are good for health . As it does not contain any …

I think that everyone should have a crock pot. It should be a stable in ever persons home. My husband and I have a 4qt. Black crock pot that we bought at Target for about $20. We bought it on random day when we wanted to make meatballs for …

I was craving something sweet one evening and went in search of something to satisfy my ever so growing sweet tooth. In one of my kitchen containers I had a packet of Marie Callenders Blue Berry Muffin mix, neatly tucked away for occasions like this. For sixty cents …

Cattlemen’s Ranch Roasted Sweet Onion Black Angus Beef Patties are mouth-watering! When I want one, I cook it in the oven, no need to defrost, and out comes a delicious tasting burger that’s filling and flavorful! The burgers are bigger and thicker than quarter-pound burgers and six come in …

Eno fruit salt is available in Asian grocery stores. It basic purpose is to get relief from acidity. It is kind of a home made soda. Just add half a tablespoon to a glass full of water and let it bubble a bit, drink it immediately and pretty soon …

Snoqualmie Falls Lodge Old Fashion Pancake and Waffle Mix is by far the best brand I have ever eaten. 5 lbs for 4.99 and just add water. I have tried the store brands, I have tried national brands, and find little difference in taste with either of them. I, …

I like instant coffee especially for breakfast. Since my aunt had Diabetes, she tried to purchase the San Mig Coffee 3 in 1 coffee mix in STRONG that is Sugar Free. I honestly did not like San Mig Coffee because the flavor is bland. It is like drinking water …

When we bought several cans of Del Monte Chunky Mixed Fruit, I thought it was going to be a lot like my favorite Very Cherry Mixed Fruit by the same brand, only in bigger pieces and maybe with less cherries. Indeed, the ingredients are very similar - peach and …

Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Pistachio Almond is simply spectacular! Pistachio ice cream is so incredibly difficult to find in the area that I live and I am so grateful that Blue Bunny makes this variety of ice cream, I would not be able to purchase it and enjoy …

I generally eat cereal at breakfast time, rather than go to the time and trouble of preparing anything more complex such as a cooked meal, but all I really ask of that cereal is that it be reasonably well made and tasty. Sainsbury’s Cornflakes are not quite as nice …

Some time ago, my brother bought my family a container of grated Parmesan Cheese so that we could make a Parmesan pizza later on in the week or possibly the week after that. The brand of Grated Parmesan Cheese that my brother bought too was called “Kraft 100% Grated …

I first had slim jims on a camping trip. What they are are essentially beef jerkey in a tube like form rather than little pieces of meat like traditional jerkey. They are extreamly thin, however also rather filling as a snack when your on the go.
These are particuarly …

Dairy Queen’s Peanut Buster Parfait is, overall, a nice treat for a hot day. Every now and then I’m ready for a change of pace, and that’s normally when I’ll order this dessert. I don’t like to have it too often, but for the occasional spice to …

The Fox’s name is one that I find I can usually rely on to give me biscuits that are both tasty and decent value, and the same is true of the Golden Crunch variety. These are not the cheapest biscuits around, weighing in at around 89p for a 200 …

I’ve been purchasing Little Debbie’s Fudge Brownies for several years now. It’s not a product I buy with regularity, but it’s something I’ll get as an occasional treat or if I want something for on the go. These brownies are made with English Walnuts, and they are plentiful, …

I like raisins by themselves to some extent, but I can’t claim to be a huge fan. However, put them on some cereal and I am definitely a fan. Particularly when that cereal is with one of the all-time favorites like Frosted Mini Wheat’s. I know that Mini Wheat’s …

I do not find Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies to be all that good at all. While there is most definitely a chocolate flavor baked into the brownies, there is not nearly enough to create a truly delicious brownie treat. These brownies could also be a little more moist than …

I have discovered a new respect for Hardee’s restaurants. In addition to having better food than a lot of fast food places. This restaurant brings the food to its patrons as if they were in a sit-down place. I ordered the Little Thickburger which is …

Although I find this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Pumpkin variety to be enjoyable, much like the cheesecake no bake line, I prefer a fresh, homemade pumpkin pie because it is so much richer and more moist! This no bake dessert is alight, but it is a little on …

My partner and I had a recent fight and to appease my anger, he bought me ice cream. I thought it was the new flavor that I have been telling him, but to my dismay it is not. Though the package was labeled Gold, still I wasn’t much impressed.
The …

I was looking to buy chicken breasts to make a cobb salad at home. The plain chicken breasts were not on sale so I decided to try the Butterball Fully Cooked Chicken Breast Strips. The flavor I choose was grilled. I assumed that they would have …

One day I was shopping through the cookie aisle at the grocery store and I stumbled upon these cookies. I picked up a bag to get a closer look and I was like these look so amazing. I never knew such a yummy looking flavor existed. …

If you like German chocolate, I think you will like these Little Debbie German Chocolate Cookie Rings because these cookie rings have a fairly authentic German chocolate flavor. I say fairly authentic because the flavor is not quite a perfect replica, but it is close enough, I think. Here …

Being a Vegetarian or Vegan can be tough sometimes. There are always foods that you miss having. One of the foods that I’ve missed the most are marshmallows. Marshmallows have gelatin, and thus …are not Veggie friendly. To make things worst, it is darn near impossible to …

The Market Pantry Animal Crackers Classic and Chocolate come in a ten ounce box for ninety-nine cents. This is an item sold only at Target stores as it’s a store brand product. The box contains a mixture of plain animal crackers as well as chocolate-flavored animal crackers. I recall …

I remember always drinking Hawaiian Punch as child. My favorite flavor was lemon berry squeeze and I loved the taste and the fruitiness. I always drunk it when I was thirsty, but as an adult now, I don’t favor it much as I used to. Hawaiian Punch is very …

I am a big fan of whips although I’ve discovered them just about half a year ago, before that I was eating yogurts. But these whips are much more delicious than yogurts and they can also be used as desserts, specially because there are so many different tastes of …

I absolutely love cooking. It’s relaxing, fun and passes the time and never gets old. So to say, I like to keep seasonings on hand to properly flavor my food. There’s more to food, than salt, fat and sugar.
I purchased Simply Asia Sweet Ginger Garlic Seasoning from Kroger after …

Let me start out by saying Act II microwavable popcorn isn’t normally our brand of choice. When it comes to popcorn, Pop Secret still remains my brand of choice. However, when we were traveling recently, the Act II was the only brand we could find on the road so …

The Drink “Milo” must be as old as time itself since I initially thought it was a drink which came here in the nineties when I was a little girl, but my mother said recently that she used to drink it too as a child. Nevertheless, even though I …

When I took a recent trip to North Carolina, I stopped by the Childress Vineyards and picked up a few of their products made with local ingredients. The best of the best was their peach salsa. I have tried some of their other salsa types, but this one is …

Recently, I decided to splurge a bit and instead of using just packets of taco sauce for my homemade tacos, I tried out Newman’s Own All Natural Chunky Salsa - Mild. As a fan of actor Paul Newman, I have long applauded what his charity organization has done. …

As my kid is underweight and hence our Physician recommended to give this nutritional drink to her.It served the purpose and she has gained 1 pound in 15 days.Keep in mind that it is recommended only for kids of age 1 and above.It is available in more …

I am very fond of cooking spaghetti and homemade pizza so my refrigerator should never be without various kinds of cheese. One weekend, I was planning to make homemade pizza for our Sunday afternoon snack so I went to the grocery store and bought all the necessary ingredients. …

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 …

These corn flakes are a bit of an unusual choice if you, like me, are generally the sort of person who sticks to either the supermarkets’ own brands or the traditional fall back of Kellogg’s. They are also fairly expensive, with my local Sainsbury’s supermarket selling only a smallish …

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 …

My son wanted to try one of these sandwiches. So he ordered one, he wanted it plain, with only cheese on it. He was surprised when he sat down to east his sandwich, this was a big one! Three big burgers, but the most surprising part of …

Wonder Natural Foods Better’n Peanut Butter is not something that I want to spend money on or taste ever again. Sure, it’s better for the body than regular peanut butter because there’s not as much fat, but it’s not better for the taste buds. I recall when I first …

Like the berry pie, Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie is quite delicious on the inside but pretty poor when it comes to the bland and dry crust. The cherry filling is really very satisfying and rich, plus it has an authentic taste to it, which is something that is certainly …

I decided that I would try some of the FullBars that are advertised as weight-loss aids. These bars are really good, and I did feel full, so I hope they are going to be the “magic” that I need to lose some weight. I could taste …

I try to eat healthy but I also have to have meals that are quick because I do not have time to prepare a healthy meal. I like the Amy’s meals because they give me that option. The Baked Ziti Bowl is one of the meals I like to …
