While in my local Dollar Tree Store …

I found these Little Debbie Snack Pie - Chocolate variety pies to be decent, although certainly not outstanding by any stretch of the means. This pie is pure chocolate on the inside and chocolate lovers are sure to go bananas over this pie, especially if they place this pie …

I find it hard to imagine finding very many words to describe a drink, especially when it is not a high-end, famous wine or single-malt scotch, or something equally as unique or one-of-a-kind. I do enjoy beer, wine and cider, but I

Being a huge fan of fried chicken, I have ordered it in many different places, and I believe I can say that fried chicken served at Culver’s is very close to be the best of the best. It is always soft and juicy inside, while the outside is that …

My family always bought margerine by the sticks. I got used to the fact that with a new stick, you need to give it several hours to defrost if you want to have any hope of spreading it successfully.

Since my childhood days, I remember that Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning has been used for our food preparations at home. At that time, I didn’t have any idea its significance in our food. Anyway, as years went on, different food seasonings have been introduced in the market. I actually prefer …

Great Value - Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastries are much sweeter than they should be and also do not offer a very natural blueberry flavor, either. Although the box states that the pastries are made with “real fruit”, there is something about these blueberry pastries that does not taste quite …

I just bought a bag of Dunkin’ Donuts Original Blend coffee from the store for the first time. The bag itself costs almost $7.00. Since this is a little bit out of my price range, I would always purchase the cheaper store brands. I …

Although I am not overly crazy about these Little Debbie Fudge Rounds, I nonetheless purchase them from time to time. The fudge flavor is a little on the dull side, but the flavor that is there, I do like. If the fudge flavor was a little richer, I certainly …

Dorayaki is a popular japanese treat or snack. To a lot of westerns, they would simply describe it as two pancakes slapped together with red bean paste in the middle. Alternatively, it can also be lotus paste, which taste okay too but a bit sweet in my opinion. However, …

I’ve only seen Mr. Pudding pudding products at ALDI, and I think I know why: they just aren’t that good. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla pudding, and the same can be said for the chocolate pudding, too. Four cups come in a pack and each cup is three …

If you are looking for a tasty barbecue flavored potato chip, then you most definitely will not want to purchase the Kroger brand barbecue potato chips! These potato chips are certainly crispy, but they are definitely not flavorful. There is but a hint of barbecue flavor and when I …

Apple Pumpkin Pie is a fairly delightful dessert that I am sometimes able to purchase at Tom Thumb around September, October and November. The reason that I say it is a fairly delightful dessert is because it does have a slight flaw to it: the pie comes across as …

I have come to expect little, if anything, from Great Value (Wal-Mart’s store brand). The bread is almost always stale, the sodas taste flat, and the crinkle-cut French fries are soggy. Oh, and the chili with beans? Terrible.
But I’m in college, so my grocery budget isn’t always as …
