Wendy’s - Spicy Chicken Sandwich
Wendy’s - Spicy Chicken Sandwich is outrageously hot! I ordered this once and that was it for me! Never again! I can handle hot and spicy food to an extent, but each bite of this sandwich is enough to really send a hot sting across my taste buds! I …
M&Ms Limited Addition Coconut
One day I was on my way to Turkey Hill to get gas, and out the corner of my eye I saw a display of what appeared to be M&Ms. So I walked over to take a closer look and sure enough that’s what it was. …
Campbells Italian Wedding Soup
I really enjoyed this when my mom made it for dinner. I am not a huge fan of soups and when my mom brought this home I didn’t know what to expect. When she began making it I didn’t think that I would like it. Boy was I wrong. …
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 …
Jell-o Gelatin - Apricot
Jell-o Gelatin - Apricot is a pretty decent flavor variety that I tend to get a taste for every once and a great while. The apricot flavor is pretty authentic and real and I like how with each spoonful, I am treated to a pretty rich explosion of apricot …
Heinz Tomato Soup
I’ve grown up in the UK, and it’s been instilled in me from a young age that Heinz soups are the best! Heinz prides itself on its high quality and natural ingredients, and this tends to be reflected in its prices.
The famous adverts that used to show …
Oishi ponkan juice
This is a fairly new brand of powdered juice drink in the market which can compete with the leading brand because of its flavor and what it offers over all. Oishi Sundays ponkan powdered juice drink is very delicious and I especially love its sweet taste and very flavorful …
Meadowfresh Lemon and Coriander Houmous
I frequently buy the original houmous (or hummus) in the Meadowfresh range but I thought I would try this lemon and coriander version. I wanted to experiment by using avocado in a tortilla wrap so I thought a houmous with lemon in would be ideal as I would …
Birds Eye Steamfresh Shrimp Alfredo
Our supermarket recently picked up the Birds Eye Steamfresh Meals for Two line, and I was tempted to try the Shrimp Alfredo. I am a fan of frozen meals and I wanted to see how Steamfresh compared to other lines such as Contessa and Bertolli.
The difference with the Steamfresh …
Breyers Frozen Lemonade
I was recently given a small container of Breyers Soft frozen lemonade, and must say?I?m not impressed. I was actually given a selection of ice cream to choose from and I chose the frozen lemonade thinking it would be light and tasty. Overall I think it was just way …
Horlicks Malties
It has been forever since I had a taste of Horlicks candies. The last time I was able to eat it was when I was probably 8 years old and now I am already in my 30’s! When I had a recent trip to Zamboanga City’s barter market, I …
Mother dairy cheese blocks
I have tried many kind of mother dairy company food products before and I also liked most of them. But this was for the first time that I had tried the mother dairy branded cheese blocks. Actually I have a great interest in cooking. And I …
Growee Syrup
My primary concern as a mother is the proper growth and development of my children. I see to it that they’re eating balanced diet and receiving the right nutrition for their day to day activities. But sometimes because kids are very hyper-active, I am not …
Aquafina Bottled Water
As someone who is very particular about what kind of water I put into my body, I didn’t find Aquafina very impressive. It’s a cheaper brand, so I suppose you will get what you pay for (and maybe even a little less), but I still must say that I …
Mcchicken Sandwich
The Mcchicken sandwich from McDonalds is my favorite from their value menu. Obviously a price of dollar one is very attractive. But even more than that I like the taste of this sandwich very much. The constituents of Mcchicken are very simple. The chicken patty is very soft and …
King’s Grand Cappucino Chips Ice Cream
I always tell people around me that I want to make my own ice cream but sadly, I never really did it. I have many excuses - I don’t have the time, I don’t have the know-how, I don’t have the machines…
So in the …
Mamee monster snack
Mamee monster - The title alone will create the impression of a terribly unhealthy, but incredibly delicious snack. It is one of the better ‘Made in Malaysia’ snacks, as compared to snacks like ‘Super ring’ (a cheap version of Cheezels) and the like.
Mamee monster is essentially a packet of …
Omaha Steaks Sesame Chicken Breats
Although these chicken breasts look small, the taste definitely makes up for the size. Anyone who loves a good sesame tasting chicken should give the Omaha Steaks Sesame Chicken Breasts a try. I’m a tall 27 year old female and cook eat you out of house and …
Drinking Aalborg Akvavit
Most of the spirits that people consume in the leading countries of the west are mixers of one sort or another. I’m thinking of the likes of gin (& tonic), vodka (& anything) and all that sort of thing. Drinks that are designed to be mixed with soft drinks …
Lipton Japanese Green Tea
I love bottled Iced Tea Drinks. I have tried almost every iced tea, plain or with flavors that was introduced in the market. Most of the time, i would be disappointed because some are just too sweet, some are too coarse and others seemed to taste like medicines and …
Total 100% Whole Grain Cereal
At first, I was skeptical of Total 100% Whole Grain Cereal but I saw it on a television commercial and was impressed with the claim of providing 100% daily value of 12 vitamins and minerals. I found it on sale at my local Kroger for $2.89 and …
Wylwood Green Beans
We had barbecue for dinner last night and one of the side dishes we ended up making was green beans from the brand Wylwood.
I’m familiar with this brand and have had no major complaints about it. And, once again, the brand did not disappoint.
First, there was a large quantity …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Glacial Mango
I don’t particularly care for mangos, but oddly enough, I do care for this mango sorbet. I guess it has to do with the sorbet being at a frosty temperature and the texture of the treat being really similar to sherbet and Italian Ice. The flavor of a mango …
Pam Grilling Cooking Oil Spray
I have used regular Pam cooking oil spray for several years and have found it to be a very handy product though costly in terms of price per ounce of oil. When I found a three pack of Pam Grilling oil spray on sale for only $3.69, making …
Gilbey’s Vodka
I like to drink Gilbey’s Vodka a lot. This brand of vodka is very good and and at a cheap price. Now Gilbey’s Vodka is not as high quality as other brand of vodka but it’s still good. The thing about this vodka is that it does get you buzzed. …
NRG Energy Mix - Intense Grape
I spotted a box of NRG (Intense) Energy Mix in the grape flavor at my local discount store. Being a fan of energy products, I decided to try it out, especially because it was such an excellent price. At $2 for a box of 30 individual packets, …
Farmland Honey & Maple Sausage Links
I mentioned in another review that my wife decided to make a pancake breakfast on Saturday. To go with the pancakes, we decided to make some sausage links and ended up cooking Honey and Maple Sausage from the brand Farmland.
They were OK but not great.
First, they tasted nothing like …
A&W Root Beer - In Store vs Restaurant
I really don’t understand why there is a difference, but over the years, from my own experience and based on conversations with others, there is no doubt that there is a definite difference between the A&W root beer acquired at an A&W restaurant versus the cans and liters purchased …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Oreo
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Oreo is really quite a scrumptious and appetizing treat! This pudding does an excellent job of recreating the delicious flavor of Oreo’s - even going as far as including little pieces of chocolate cookies in the rich and smooth cream pudding! Yum! What a truly …
Nissin Souper Meals
I absolutely loved Cup Noodle when I was little and I still love them today. They were always quick, tasty and best of all cheap. Cup Noodle is awesome for between college classes or a quick break at work. I don’t recommend eating them all the time; it’s …
Hawaiian Punch-Lemon Berry Squeeze Juice
I have been drinking this regularly for over a month now and I have to say that it is amazing. I believe it’s one of the best juices that you can buy. I purchase it from Wal-Mart but it’s sold at several other retail stores. It …
Michelina’s Cheese Pizza
I didn’t care very much for this frozen pizza. Except for the cheese, it was really pretty tasteless. Neither the crust nor the tomato sauce stood out. The crust was thin, although not crispy, and didn’t taste like much of anything or break real easily when bitten into. The …
Bovril
I was unusual as a child in that there were several things that were regarded as being outside my immediate family that I had never experienced. Early on, I was one of the few whose house did not have a television set. If I wanted to see TV, I …
Kirkland Signature Ground Sirloin and Loin of Beef Patties
I decided to buy these burgers at Costco last week. I was having a BBQ and figured I’d try them out. I’ve bought the Kirkland ground beef patties before and wasn’t thrilled by them. They’re already thin before you cook them. After you cook them …
Totino’s Classic Pepperoni Pizza
I absolutely love to eat pizza but I don’t always agree with the cost of delivery or frozen pizzas. I picked up a little inexpensive pizza called Totino’s classic pepperoni pizza. It was a frozen pizza and needed to be baked. I looked at the instructions and noticed that …
Electric Reindeer wine
I buy a certain type of wine each holiday season. The wine is called Electric Reindeer. I buy this at World Market. They have different types of the Electric Reindeer variety. There is a White Zinfandel, Merlot, Shiraz and I believe also a cabnernet.It is a versatile brand.
I like …
Grandma Rechek’s Potato Wedges
I mentioned in another review that I picked up a chicken dinner from Rechek’s Food Pride last night; the Grandma Rechek’s brand from their deli. To go with that chicken, I also picked up a container of their potato wedges.
There are a few places around town that sell potato …
The Glory of Five Roses Tea
Aah Five Roses tea…. The very flavor of home and comfort. I have been drinking this tea since I was a wee young thing, running around the house with my tea bottle hanging from my lips - 3 parts milk to 1 part tea. Morning, noon, …
Lindt Mousse Au Chocolat Bar
I love chocolate and I was tempted to try this Lindt Mousse Au Chocolate Bar for the first time because I got a coupon for 50 pence off. The photo in the advert made it look amazing as liquid milk chocolate is shown being poured over chocolate mousse. …
Uncle Bens Pasta Bake Sauces
One dish that me and my son both love is a pasta bake and when I am making one of these I look no further than an Uncle Bens jar. I am sure there are plenty of others that can make the sauce from scratch, but at the moment …
Hamburger Helper Cheesy Ranch Burger flavor
The Cheesy Ranch Burger flavor of Hamburger Helper is one of my favorites. It combines ground beef with a creamy, cheesy pasta that has just a bit of a tang or “zip” to it. I don’t know that, if I were blindfolded …
Solen GoFresh with hazelnuts
Solen GoFresh with hazelnuts is actually a Milk compound chocolate coated wafer with hazelnut and hazelnut cream. I really like hazelnuts in the my snacks because they are really delicious specially when they are whole inside of the snack, like in Duplo. So yesterday I bought Solen GoFresh with …
Oreo Cakesters by Nabisco
I found myself wandering the snack aisle at Wal-Marts yesterday and marveled at all the new choices of snack cakes and treats. Since I often pack a few items in my son’s backpack and he always ignores anything I consider healthy, I figured I budge a little …
Michelina’s Oriental Chicken and Peppers dinner
I am a huge fan of chinese food, but have never found a low-fat pre-frozen chinese dinner before. I just happenned to pick up Michelina’s Lifestyle line, Oriental Chicken and Peppers dinner at my local supermarket.
This was an excellent dinner for me to choose. There was plenty of peppers …
Bellamessa’s Smoked Sea Salt Flakes
These are some really cool sea salt flakes. They aren’t crystals in the normal sense. They look like hollow pyramids, and they are really strong with the smokey flavor. It only takes a little bit, and adds a wonderful flavor to your food. It’s great …
Lunch Buddies Cinnamon Applesauce
I like adding applesauce to my lunch or dinner occasionally because it tastes good and it’s not what I consider to be a “heavy” side, like, for example, beans or even certain kinds of vegetables. Applesauce is light, yet it’s not light on flavor, and that’s what I enjoy …
Goldstar Television
I have a Goldstar Television in my room. Although slightly lesser known than the branded and heavily advertised counterparts, Goldstar to its credit has been silently making high quality products that really do endure the test of time. I’ve had mine since 1999 when my sister wed and got …
Grimmway Farms Baby Carrots
I picked up a bag of Grimmway Farms Cut & Peeled Baby Carrots. I was looking for a healthy snack when I was at the grocery store. This is one of the things I found because carrots are great for you. Carrots are very …
Bake N’ Shake Barbeque Seasoning
Even though I didn’t like the crispy seasoning by Bake N’ Shake, I wanted to try the barbeque seasoning because I love barbeque and the photograph on the box made it seem like it would be the best chicken. When will I learn? When will I learn?
>From the picture …
Cheerios
I think everyone one I know has eaten cheerios cereal. You can feed it dry to babies and pets as well as eat it with milk any time of the day.Cheerios is low in fat, low in sugar and low in calories. I believe it is a good alternative …
