Trail mix isn’t something that I can find reasonably priced, and really, I don’t know if $1.00 for a 7 ounce bag at the “Dollar Tree” is even worth the money, but I do know that I enjoy this tropical mix and that every package I purchase disappears relatively …

As much as I enjoy ice cold fruit treats and although I really like strawberries, these frozen sliced strawberries sold at ALDI didn’t impress me very much. They weren’t all that sweet, and that’s how I like to enjoy strawberries. There was some sweetness to these strawberries, but it …

For just under eighty cents for a fourteen point five ounce can, this mixture of vegetables sold under Walmart’s Great Value brand is worth the money. Although I don’t think the vegetables contained in the can are quite as good and fresh as the vegetables in the frozen bags …

Hershey’s: Rich Chocolate Special Dark Syrup is not quite as good as the regular chocolate syrup, but I did not feel as if my money was wasted on this syrup, so that is always a good thing. It really comes down to preference, I suppose. Dark chocolate is something …

The recipe that we use is very simple and was Lyndsey’s Grandmothers recipe …

I really like peanuts as a savoury snack, and have done for a number of years now. They’re less messy than eating a pastry product such as a sausage roll, they don’t melt as many sweet snacks (such as chocolate bars) do and they’re very convenient to carry around. …

I love eating chocolates. From dark chocolates to white chocolates, I love them all. This is probably why I have a weight problem. They say that chocolates are fattening, but who cares. Even when I try to go on a diet, I can’t resist the temptation of eating chocolates …

Winking Owl Vineyard’s Shiraz wine is sold by Aldi’s supermarkets. It retails for 2.99 a bottle. I was curious to try this because you never know if a bottle of wine that retails for 2.99 will be any good.

I can attest …

Alcohol is something I’ve never written a review for and it’s not that I don’t drink, it’s just that I didn’t want to write about things like wine and beer, since it’s really hard to explain the flavor of those (at least for me) and will unlikely give people …

I find these Little Debbie Snack Pie - Cherry variety to be far superior to the apple variety. Where as the apple variety lacked real, authentic apple flavor and just seemed to have an overall dull flavor, this cherry variety is quite rich in precisely the flavor it should …

This frosting comes in two different colors: red and blue. It’s kind of odd how the container containing the blue frosting is red and the container containing the red frosting is blue, as I would’ve thought it would be the other way around, but I guess the Baker’s Corner …

This is the Supermarket Tesco’s version of the brand name version of an Energy Drink. I do sometimes drink the brand name version but it is so expensive compared to the Supermarket ones.

This breakfast syrup product is definitely not worth trying. I bought some by mistake because the label on front had a sticker on it that hid the word “Lite”. I had been buying the company’s (Pinnacle foods group) regular County Kitchens syrup for some time and was happy with …

Do you love iced coffee and chocolate? Then you;ll love the new Iced Mocha BK Joe from Burger King. It is one of the tastiest iced mochas I’ve ever tried. It has a bit of a feel of a java chip iced coffee, but with the added …
