Bella Rosa Extra Virgin Olive Oil 250 ml

For one, it doesn’t hurt when I’m frying something. You know how you get all …
L’oven Fresh Chocolate Chip Brownies
Packaged brownies will never, ever taste as moist or as fresh as freshly baked brownies at home. That being said, these pre-made brownies aren’t bad, but they aren’t as moist and soft as I would have liked them to be. They get softer if I warm them up in …

Arizona Ice Tea
Arizona Ice tea is the cheapest ice tea that I have ever come across. It is also the best for the small amount that you pay for. If only the other brands sold their drinks for 99 cents. They would get a lot more sales if they did.

Envidia Green Tea Apple Flavor
I am starting to be a health freak. I monitor the nutritional facts of the foods I take in. Envidia Green Tea caught my attention by their commercial with the catchy line “One Two Zero”. One for having EGCG (Epigallocathecin Gallate), two for two times power of L-Carnitine and …

Bagoong or Shrimp Paste
It’s actually called shrimp paste and it smells horrible uncooked. Well, it should, after all the ingredients were left to rot in huge jars. But if you sault it with garlic, onions, tomatoes and pork, it tastes wonderful. Just forget how it was processed. Bagoong is much like an …
Little Debbie Creme-Filled Chocolate Cupcakes

Kellog’s Special K Chocolate Chip cereal bar
Eating cereals is good for your body, but I only like the ones specifically for kids, as the ones for adults usually don’t taste great. To tell you the truth, I only liked the ones specifically for kids until I tried the cereal bars from Kellog’s Special K.
I’m not …
