Blue Horizon Four Cheese Fettuccine Pasta
The Blue Horizon Four Cheese Fettuccine Pasta is a frozen pasta that I have only noticed in ALDI Food Market stores. That’s actually an okay thing since I wouldn’t buy this frozen pasta again even if it was easily found in other stores. I simply didn’t enjoy this pasta …
Nestle Low-Fat Milk
Full cream milk is advisable for children to enhance their growth potential and make their bones stronger. For older persons, low-fat milk is preferred because they are avoiding accumulation of fats. As they become more conscious of their figure especially women, they tend to be picky on what they …
Sainsbury’s Dark Roast Freeze Dried Instant Coffee
This Dark Roast Freeze Dried Instant Coffee from Sainsbury’s own brand is indeed, as it says on the label, dark and intense, which incidentally is how I like my men. This is lovely coffee, especially for me as I like a good strong cup which is smooth as …
Hilo Value Whole Kernel Canned Sweet Corn
I usually love to eat sweet corn, whether it is alone stealing it out of the fridge for a snack, or mixing it with diluted condensed milk and a dash of nutmeg. However, these days since the global recession the prices of a lot of tinned food have raised, …
Great Value Canned Corn
As I mentioned in another review, we decided to make a big dinner last night with lots of side dishes because the pork ribs we made were a bit lean when it came to meat. Since we needed a vegetable everyone in our family would eat (and I was …
Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle
Recently, I got brave and tried out a new product: Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle flavor. They actually have four new sandwich spreads, the others being hot and spicy, horseradish - Dijon, and garlic & herb. I ended up with two flavors, so in the future …
Deerfield Farms Mediterranean Fruit and Nut Blend
I love to find healthy snacks that actually taste good. Lately, I seem to have grown tired of the granola bars and energy bars that have been part of my regular snack repertoire for many years. I picked up a bag of Deerfield Farms Mediterranean Fruit and Nut Blend …
Buddig Honey Ham Lunch Meat
If you’re like me you enjoy making a sandwich that’s packed with all the fixings. In my opinion the best part of a sandwich besides everything else is the lunch meat. I know when going to sandwich shops like subway or making my own sandwiches and wraps at …
Crosse & Blackwell Macaroni Cheese Pasta & Sauce
I think this macaroni cheese from Crosse & Blackwell is really tasty considering it is just a dried pasta and sauce mix in a sachet. It is really easy to make and can even be cooked in the microwave, as I have done. It was also really …
Rombauer Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
I don’t consider myself a professional when it comes to evaluating wine. However, I do live in California and I have I think been exposed wine tastings and enjoyed different wines over the last ten years. I do think my palette has developed in that time.
My boyfriend brought this …
Nestle Corn Flakes (Toasted Flakes ofCorn Breakfast Cereal)
My mom is very conscious with her health. She’s usually the one who tries to teach us the right kind of food to eat and influence us with a healthy lifestyle. Among all of the foods that she’d like me to eat, there’s one that she didn’t have a …
Gavrilovic liver pate
If there’s some food that I really hate that’s liver. I remember my mother was preparing that when I was younger and I hated it and I was making scenes because I didn’t wanna eat it. I still hate it today and I never eat it. Well except in …
Chocolate Cheerios
Because I’m awake when everyone else is asleep in the mornings I usually end up eating cold breakfasts (because I’m afraid of waking people up if I’m cooking something in the kitchen). This morning, I decided to have cereal. And, because it was the one I ended up grabbing …
Aunt Jemima: Original Syrup
Aunt Jemima: Original Syrup is a syrup that has a pretty rich flavor to it. It is, however, one of the more expensive syrups, so I typically do not purchase it unless I have a good coupon or it is on sale at an attractive price. I can purchase …
Cinnamon Bun Premium Cookie Mix
Pillsbury Cinnamon Bun Premium Cookie Mix is a product I picked up from the market when I was in the mood to bake. I wanted a easy shortcut, one that wouldn’t have too many steps or too much to clean up. Pillsbury is one of those brands that …
Bluewave Breaded Popcorn Shrimp
Product Description: Box of frozen breaded popcorn shrimp available at most stores for around $2 per box.
What I liked about this product: One of the biggest reasons why I picked this particular brand is it gave me a few more cooking options than some of the others that were …
Boboli Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
I like to eat pizza, and was looking for a way to make it healthier. I saw that Boboli has a whole wheat pizza crust, and thought I would try it. When I first saw the crust, it looked thinner than the original Boboli pizza crust. …
McCormick Black Peppercorn Grinder 1.24 oz
We got this when my husband went to Wal-Mart to get me pepper after work. All that I wanted was some ground black pepper for our dinner, but he came home with this McCormick Black Peppercorn Grinder because he knows that I like peppercorn grinders. It is very nice …
Kraft Bagelfuls
A bagelful is a burrito-size (and shaped) bagel filled with Philadelphia cream cheese.
In my opinion it’s a great time saving alternative to actually getting out a bagel and spreading cheese on it. It has a nice …
Blue Diamond Almond Breeze almond coconut blend unsweetened
So I recently moved to the US and I’ve started trying out different plant-based milk brands to find the one that will fullfill all my purposes. No success yet. And I’ll tell you why later on. At first, let me tell you what I expect from my plant-based milk and …
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Chicken Bacon and Spinach Flatbread
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Chicken Bacon and Spinach Flatbread is a tasty sandwich that I like to have every now an then. It can be a little tough on the stomach, but my taste buds sure do seem to get a real kick out of the flavors to be found …
Snapfish.com
I can’t say enough good about snapfish.com. This online web site that processes pictures (and produces some really cool gifts with them) has treated me, as a customer, very well. I’ve ordered several different things. I’ve ordered prints, notebooks, mugs, and calender. Each have come very …
Flavor-Aid Koolaid
I typically by Flavor-Aid Kool-Aid because it is a cheap affordable drink that my all kids like. Normally I purchase the 12 pack from Save-a-lot because it’s only 79 cents for the 12 packs compared to paying 10 cents each for them individually. That is a savings of 41 …
Dominos Philly Cheesesteak Pizza
I usually try to avoid ordering pizza; primarily because of the cost and because it isn’t really the healthiest thing my family can be eating.
However, ever since Dominos brought back their Philly Cheesesteak pizza, I’m ordering from them much more than usual.
The thing I like about the pizza is …
Pizza Hut’s Big Italy pizza
I remember back when Pizza Hut had their “Big Foot” pizza. It was a square pizza that measured out to three square feet, it was freaking huge. Being a guy in his mid 20’s, I like pizza and can eat a lot of it if I’m hungry …
Fit & Active Strawberry Lemonade Beverage
The Fit & Active Strawberry Lemonade Beverage comes in a one liter bottle for sixty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Just as the name suggests, this beverage is a sweet mixture of strawberry and lemon flavors. What’s most impressive about the combination of strawberry and lemon flavoring is …

Summer is the time when our body needs plenty of water and what more can be better than a refreshing and rejuvenating Mint (Pudina) flavored juice. Pudina juice is a very healthy and common type of juice which can be made at home in minutes. Preparing it is easy …
Lay’s Potato Chips
I love eating chips and this makes up most of my diet if I am not I the mood to eat a full meal. Junk foods are not really good, I know but at least some have tried to be a bit on the healthy side. Lay’s Products have …

When Easter approaches, there’s just one thing that really stands out. It’s the craving of chocolate lovers everywhere. It’s the epitome of Easter candy. It’s the one must-have chocolaty treat. ‘It’ is Cadbury Creme Eggs.
Cadbury makes good chocolate treats anyway, but during this special season, …
Little Debbie Coffee Cakes - Apple Streusel
Little Debbie Coffee Cakes - Apple Streusel make for an enjoyable snack or tasty addition to breakfast. Although there is not a great deal of cinnamon baked into these coffee cakes, there is sufficient to be able to taste it. The apple flavor is certainly stronger, but combined with …
Popcorn Indiana Cheddar Cheese Popcorn
Product Description: Bag of pre-popped popcorn with aged cheddar cheese. Available at Walgreens for around $3.
What I liked about this product: For one, the popcorn was much fresher than I expected popcorn from a pre-packaged bag to be. I bought this expecting it to be very stale and it …
Alaska Crema All Purpose Cream
Alaska Crema All Purpose Cream is not really my original brand but one Christmas season, I decided to give it a try when the other brand that I was using went out of stock in the grocery store near my place. I did not have the time to travel …
Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs
A snowball is a snowball, and that, unfortunately, is the case with Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs. Do not let the unusual pink color of these snowballs catch your eye - there is nothing different about these snowballs from other snowballs sold in the grocery stores. The pink is nothing …
Nateway Pierogies
About a month ago, my wife and I picked up a box of Nateway pierogies when we were out shopping at Save-a-Lot. They were very affordable and it was a food item we both enjoyed so I figured it would be worth buying just so we had them when …

My husband and I bought Tyson Buffalo Chicken Breast Tenderloins for an easy meal to cook up on the weekends. We bought these in the large plastic bags which hold the tenderloins. I love these type of bags because it allows me to only cook the specific …
Okuya Japanese Fast food in Greenhills, San Juan
I really love Japanese foods. Even at home, we eat and cook food in Japanese way. But when it comes to Japanese fast foods, I have a lot in my mind but I would prefer Okuya because Okuya is quite cheaper than other Japanese fast food chains. Japanese restaurants …
Edwards Thaw & Serve Hershey Creme Pie (25.5 oz)
About once a month, we pick up an Edwards pie from the grocery store. Most recently, the favorite has been the Hershey’s Creme Pie. They’re a little bit pricey, but it’s a great treat for now and then.
These pies come frozen, but thaw in about 2 hours in the …
Big Butt Doppelbock by Leinenkugel
Yes, it is true I like Big Butt’s. Well, at least I like Leinenkugel’s Big Butt. This is a great example of a doppelbock style beer made by the Wisconsin microbrewery. As we move from the heavy winter beers towards the lighter beers of spring, doppelbock style beers will …
Astro Jeunesse stirred yoghurt
This yoghurt is great. I really like the texture of it, very smooth, and not at all watery or lumpy. It is a fat free yoghurt, and I buy it in the packs of small containers. I like to eat one with a bit of granola on top, or …
Swanson Salisbury steak packaged dinner
I am not usually a huge fan of television dinners but I do love Swanson products, so when their packaged dinners came on sale two for $5 I just had to buy them. The first one I selected was the Salisbury steak dinner with mushrooms, gravy potatoes and corn, …
Grace Sliced Chicken Bologna
The company “Grace Foods” has been a trusted Jamaican company for a very long time, and one of their products that I like is the Grace Chicken Bologna. I used to take this particular brand of bologna for granted some years ago, until very recently we couldn’t afford to …
Wonder Natural Foods Better’n Peanut Butter
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 …
Yogi Tea, Ginger and Hibiscus
I’m a big fan of Yogi Teas, and one of my ambitions is to try all of them! If you love tea, and you love a bit of spice, then you will love this brand. Their teas are at once relaxing, and have that bit of bite!
They’re …
Cooper’s Garlic Texas Toast
This is an off-brand of Texas Toast that I’ve only found at ALDI. There is nothing that sets this Texas Toast apart from the national brand Texas Toast except for the price. It sells for just a dollar sixty-four for eight slices in a box. I haven’t found Texas …
Jose Ole Southwest Chicken Frozen Skillet Dinner
I have recently become a big fan of the frozen skillet meals that have recently come onto the market. These meals are a big improvement from standard microwave dinners because they allow the consumer to actually feel like they’re cooking the meal, as opposed to just warming it …
Great Value Brats
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 …
Sunnyside Vanilla Sandwiches
Sunnyside Farms produces a lot of foods for Bel Air Markets. Sometimes they do well, and sometimes not so well. After purchasing their vanilla sandwiches over many years, I can firmly say that these sandwiches are simply okay.
I purchase Sunnyside Farms vanilla sandwiches because they are economically …
Burger King Triple Whopper with Cheese
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 …
Folgers Classic Roast Hazelnut Flavored Coffee
Being an avid coffee lover, it is not easy to please me when it comes to a good cup of coffee. My dream home would include a full coffee bar, full of a variety of coffees to choose from!
