Sparkling Ice Black Raspberry Sparkling Water
In the last couple of months I have been trying to decrease my consumption of soda and increase my consumption of water. Unfortunately, however, I do not like the taste of plain water very much so my attempts have not been as successful as I had hoped. …
San Marino Corned Tuna
San Marino is the first brand to offer corned tuna in the market and the first one to show a tv commercial with a very famous couple celebrity in the Philippines. So at first I wondered what the hype is all about this new food product since I …
Cap’n Crunch cereal
I bought this Cap’n Crunch cereal on sale. This 350gram box of cereal boasts that it contains ‘O trans fat’, which I thought was a redeeming quality. The other thing I like was that this cereal contains no white flour, they make it with corn flour and oat flour.
There’s …
New York Style - Panetini Three Cheese
New York Style - Panetini Three Cheese are small, tasty pieces of toast. The toast is pleasantly crispy and crunchy, and sort of reminds me of croutons. The toast is flavored with three different cheeses: Parmesan, Romano and cheddar cheeses. These three cheeses come together to create a rather …
Gold Cup’s Chocolate Covered Caramel Popcorn
For a while I have wondered what the two great snack foods of chocolate and caramel popcorn would taste like. I have a sweet tooth and a fondness for both of these sweet treats.
I saw a package of Gold Cup’s Chocolate Covered Caramel Popcorn in my local discount store …
Rolos
One of my friends always buys these for me whenever they come over. Overall they are pretty good. They are chocolates, with caramel inside of them. Most of the time I don’t like caramel except if it is just a tiny bit of it. I do like these though. …
Cascade Ice Sparkling Water organic Lemon Lime
Sparkling Water, is a beverage I can deeply appreciate, since it gives the same bubbly and fizz that one craves from soda. So to say when I spotted Cascade Ice Sparkling Water organic Lemon Lime, at my neighborhood Kroger, I was excited. I am no stranger to the brand …
Voiello Pasta
I really like this pasta because it tastes like one of those traditionally made pastas that our grandmas were making. It seems to be covered with flour and it tastes great.
Voiello is an italian trademark and I think that if someone honosw how to make pasta thats italian people …
Strawberry Chex
I just tried this cereal not too long ago because the shoppers where I live had a sale on cereal. It’s pretty good. The strawberry taste is very strong. It’s definately different from the other kinds of chex. I love strawberries and almost anything flavored with strawberry but I …
Harvey Fresh UHT Long Life Lactose Free Milk
I love to eat cereals as my breakfast, but unfortunately, since I am asian, I do have lactose-intolerance. Eating dairy products, like even the simplest ice cream will definitely send me to the comfort room because I would often have cramps and suffer from diarrhea. I do indulge from …
Du Claw Sweet Baby Jesus Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter
As a craft beer drinker, I am always on the lookout for new or alternative beers to drink. So when a sampler of Du Claw went on sale for about $1 a bottle at my favorite store, and having heard about Du Claw from numerous reviewers, etc., I …
Jollibee Palabok and Chicken
Today I had an amazing meal at Jollibee. Not that I hated or loved their meals but it was just today that I truly enjoyed the Palabok and Chicken Meal I had with this local fast food chain. Well of course I have had this but it is today …
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 …
Best Choice Frozen Whole Strawberries
Who doesn’t love fresh strawberries? Unfortunately for most of us, we are only able to obtain these fresh berries during certain times. In our part of the country, we can buy fresh strawberries year round, but often at a premium price. That is why I absolutely …
JBC Happy Peanuts Bigger Nuts Barbeque Flavor
Because my father and I like nuts so much I bought one from the grocery. There are so many health benefits that you can get from nuts like it lowers the risk of heart disease and nut eaters can benefit of five to six years of life free from …
Dole Cherry Mixed Fruit
I love my fruits and veggies and try to incorporate them into my daily life. Sometimes it’s as easy as grabbing a apple or banana. Sometimes it’s easy for me to pack chopped carrots and celery. Although like with anything else I like to mix it up, and …
Evan Nuss Milky Compound Chocolate bar
I love chocolate so much that I guess one could say that I border on being a “chocoholic”. The funny thing is though that while I can get completely addicted to certain types and brands of chocolate, one would almost never catch me fooling around others. This is because …
Ham and Cheese Sandwich from Target’s Lunch Counter
The other day I stopped off at Target’s in-store lunch counter while running errands in the area. I had skipped breakfast that day so I was pretty hungry. In the past they had some decent sandwiches and on occasion I would buy one from them. Alas, those days are …
Cheeze-It White Cheddar Baked Cracker Snacks
I eat cheeze-its because they not only taste good but they are also good for me and my kids. The tiny crackers are great for snacks during the day. I can also pack them up and take them anywhere with me that I go for a quick bite or …
Shake n Bake Buffalo Flavor
Manufactured by Kraft Foods, Shake n Bake is a breadcrumb-style coating mix for chicken or pork. It comes in a variety of flavors, some that are specifically identified as being for either chicken or pork. I have tried a number of different flavors and always enjoyed them. …
Patio TV Dinners
I’ve had Patio frozen burritos before, and they weren’t bad, so I thought that the Patio TV dinners might be a good buy. They’re pretty cheap, considering that they only cost a buck a pop, so I figured, what have I got to lose?
Well, it turns out that …
Stouffer’s Skillet Sensations Mushroom Chicken Penne
Well, frozen dinner are never really quite good. I think it is the preservatives and all the additives in the food that give me an uneasy feeling in the stomach an hour later. But sometimes there is no other choice, and I think the that Skillet Sensations Chicken Penne …
Munchini Choco Sticks
My grandmother loves to shop for bargain stuff in the barter. She loves to buy Apollo wafer sticks and just recently she bought this Munchy’s Munchini Choco Wafer Sticks. It comes in a huge plastic bin with a red handle. For 480 grams of chocolate cream wafer sticks, this …
Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli
When I had begun to watch cable television in the nineties, one of the things which I used to see advertising the most on almost all children’s televsion channels was Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli. Of course, since I was from a different culture and inexposed, I never even knew …
Blue Bunny Chips Galore! Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny Chips Galore! Ice Cream Sandwich is an alright frozen treat that I really thought that I would enjoy more. The chocolate semi-sweet chips were not sweet at all. I know that they are only supposed to be moderately sweet, but they were not even that. They were …
Frito Rio
Have you ever tried eating a fried ice cream? This may seem really awkward but I guess it is just marvelous seeing something like this prepared in front of you. The melted ice cream is poured into a metal pan and it is fried right in front of …
Yummy Earth Organic Lollipops
I haven’t been a kid in a long time and my candy preferences generally run more toward high cocoa content dark chocolate than “lollies” but I received a Yummy Earth Organic Lollipop sample in an order of herbal shampoo, of all things, and gave it a try. WOW! Within …
Breakstones Sour Cream Ranch Dip
I am not a big chip and dip eater, but I recently tried the new Breakstone’s Sour Cream Ranch Dip with some traditional potato chips and was really impressed with how good the dip tasted. The dips actually had creamy thickness to it and a light ranch flavor, but …
Blue Bunny BIG Star Bar - Vanilla
Blue Bunny BIG Star Bar - Vanilla is a pretty decent treat that I enjoy having from time to time. I must say, these star bars are indeed quite big! The word “big” appears capitalized on the box for very good reason! These star bars are really quite filling …
Cafe Breton’s Strawberry Short Dessert Crepe
Today I just made a review about the gourmet crepe that I loved. I will continue it with another good dish from the same restaurant café Breton. Café Breton serves both gourmet and dessert crepes so I was lucky enough to try one of each type. For the dessert …
Kellogg’s Froot Loops Cereal
I like Kellogg�s products and decided to try their Kellogg�s froot loops cereal. This must definitely be a cereal that is just for kids. I found it to be extremely sweet. Even though the cereal stayed crunchy in the milk it was difficult to eat with …
Gardenia White Bread Classic
I seldom eat breakfast. If ever I would, it’s something light like bread and chocolate drink. This is of the reasons why I don’t miss out on buying bread every time I go to the groceries because it’s something that I can just grab for a quick meal or …
Wal-Mart Bag of Wild Salmon Fillets
The Wal-Mart bag of wild Salmon fillets is a bag of cut up and filleted salmon; they are individually packaged and come four to five in a bag. I had only had Salmon once in my life, but based on my previous experience with the Wal-Mart bag of Tilapia …
Brach’s Candy Corn
Growing up, I loved Brach’s Candy Corn. We had it for Halloween, of course, and also throughout the year. I thought it was terrific. I even loved the aroma of the candy.
Brach’s Candy Corn comes in cone shape. The small candies have a white top, …
Starbucks Iced Coffee and Milk
When I did my shoprite from home on line shopping order a few months back I was happy to receive a few of these starbucks bottles as promotional samples. I was pleasantly surprised at how yummy these beverages are. My husband wasn’t entirely impressed with them but …
Hunt’s Snack Pack Pudding Cups Vanilla
The Hunt’s Snack Pack Pudding Cups Vanilla come in a four pack for one dollar and ninety-nine cents. Although that works out to be about fifty cents per pudding cup, I don’t think these pudding cups are worth even that. Although I’m quite fond of vanilla, I don’t think …
Brunswick Sardines with Hot Peppers
I’m one of the few people I know who actually like sardines. However, I also like trying new things sometimes, so when I saw that my usual brand, Brunswick had sardines with hot peppers I decided to buy it. I loved it at first, but later on I began to …
Valtenera Curd
I don’t like Curd a lot but as I am on a diet and I am trying to eat more proteins than usually I decided to eat curd every now and then. There are 7,7g of proteins in Valtenera curd and 5,3g of carbohydrates so it is excellent to …
Maggi tomato ketchup
Maggi tomato ketchup goes with almost all the dishes and this is my favorite ketchup. The taste of this ketchup is very natural and very close to real. The sour taste is very minimum and sweetness is optimum. This ketchup comes in a glass bottle so it can not …
Cedarlane Mushroom and Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales
I knew that I should not bother purchasing the Cedarlane Mushroom and Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales. I had a feeling I was not going to like what these tamales had to offer. Yet, I did, and it goes to show that I should have stuck with my gut. The …
Trop50
Trop50 is gross. Advertised as a juice product with 50% less sugar, trop50 is not even really orange juice. It is “vitamin enriched juice drink.” I expected that it would taste like regular orange juice, just a little bit less sweet. I was wrong. …
Coffee Twist Iced Black Coffee in Hazelnut Flavor
The internet connection in the house we are temporarily staying is very slow at night, and so to make the most of the captcha and online writing work that I do, I wake up very early in the morning. To help me really wake up, I would drink hot …
Farm Rich French Toast Sticks
Farm Rich French toast sticks are the best as far as French toast in concerned. I started buying them in my freshman year of college because I loved eating French toast, but didn’t know how to cook it. When I finally learned how to cook French toast, it just …
Datex 3600 Calorie Emergency Food Bars
Updating an emergency kit is a bit fun, since I get to finally try out my near outdated emergency food stores. I opened up a package of Datex last night, and I seriously had pictures of the old 1940’s naval food rations, dry and tasteless. But I was so …
Koestlin Saltas peanuts
Koestlin Saltas peanuts are actually salted sticks filled with natural peanuts. I really like peanuts in everything so when I found out that they started making sticks with peanuts filling I had to try them out. I don’t usually eat sticks but since they started making these with peanuts …
Rice Bowl Chicken Flavored Rice Mix
Last night, I did some grilling outside (we finally replaced our empty propane tank) and, wanting something to go with the chicken I was making that wasn’t potatoes, I picked out a box of Rice Bowl chicken flavored rice mix; which my wife was nice enough to make so …
Felix Solis 1999 Los Molinos Gran Reserva
Sells for 15 dollars in Ontario LCBO Shops
Region of origin: Spain - Valdepeñas
13% Alcohol
I know this is a good wine because I found myself with a big grin on my face when I was drinking it, this always a good sign.
It’s quite fruity and I can’t put my finger …
Nestle Drumstick Ice Cream
I can remember that the first time I bought and became familiar with the Nestle Drumstick was when I was either in my earlier years of high school or maybe before I went there. MY family and I immediately became fans since we had never tasted ice cream like …
Turbo Tea
There are so many energy drinks on the market these days that it is pretty tough to tell them apart. Sometimes you can’t and you are left with the option of having to ‘taste test’ a number of them to find out which one is best for you. Of …
Kellogg’s Coco Pops Crunchers
School mornings are always rush hours for me. I have to get up early to make sure that I prepare breakfast for everyone especially my kids who will be at least spending 6 hours in school before they could have something heavier such as lunch in their stomachs. …
