Food Reviews
Breville JE24
To me buying the fruit juice at the market is fast, easy and convenient. Until, I got this juicer from my husband, I had to think of using it instead of wasting it and besides that this was a gift from my husband. I can not give it away. …
Lays Potato Chips
Another fun food product I grew up with was Lays Potato Chips. These popular chips were always in the house. They were eaten as an extra at dinner or throughout the day as a snack. My mother was a chip fiend, so I probably got my …
Buddig Mesquite Turkey Deli Meat
I have no idea why my husband purchased this meat other than it was cheap. I normally do all the shopping and perhaps 10 or more years back I purchased this brand of lunch meat and was really disappointed with it so I never bought it again. …
Chester Cheetah Cheetos
Cheetos are really good. I’ve been eating them ever since I was a little girl probably around the age of three. I especially love the cheesy taste and licking the cheese off of my fingers. The only thing I would have to be careful about is to wash my …
Chocolate Chip Cookies
When I was a little girl, I remember that my mother loved to bake sweets. She was all the time baking something new or different for us to try. She baked a variety of cookies, cakes, pies and other such delights. All of those baked treats tasted really good …
Kopiko 3-In-One Instant Coffee
My review today is all about Kopiko 3-In-One Instant Coffee. I drink this brand of coffee sometimes especially when my favorite brand of coffee is not available in the store nearest to my place. This coffee can be purchased in plastic packs and even in smaller sachets. I usually …
WaWa Lemon Iced Tea is THE BEST Iced Tea on the Market!
If you have never tried Wawa’s Lemon Iced Tea you’re really missing out!
I’ve been a huge Iced Tea fan my whole life, but the big named Iced Tea makers have alwways been a disapointment to me.
I won’t name any names here, but I will say that if you try …
El Monterey’s Shredded Steak & Cheese Chimichanga Supreme
It is quite a shame that the El Monterey’s Shredded Steak & Cheese Chimichanga Supreme frozen burritos are not in the slightest bit spicy because I definitely like the overall flavor of these burritos. What I think I like best about these burritos is seasoned beef. It is not …
Primo Thick and Zesty Garlic and Herb Pasta Sauce 680 mL
This is my first choice when making any pasta that needs tomato sauce. It’s that good, so I use it almost daily. I’ve had this change in diet lately where I seem to be giving up on rice almost completely.
I was originally from the Philippines and even …
305 Cigarettes
I have recently tried a new brand of cigarettes called 305’s. This is a brand that seems to be a local thing to Florida, since I had never seen them prior to moving down here. 305 cigarettes are manufactured by a company called the Dosal Tobacco Comany from Miami, Florida. …
Mrs. Freshley’s Chocolate Cupcakes
I much prefer the Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes as opposed to the originals. The reason I do not care for these cupcakes is because there is a lot more sugar and calories and other bad things to be found within these cupcakes, and while the SnackAway version of …
Bernatello’s Ham & Cheese Bernie’s Bites
Product Description: Box of 12 breaded bites filled with pieces of ham and Swiss cheese. I found these at one of our local grocery store for $2.50 a couple days ago and made them as a mid-afternoon snack for my wife and me yesterday.
What I liked about this product: …
JIF extra crunchy Peanut Butter
JIF extra crunchy peanut butter is the best {peanut tasting} peanut butter around! It has the fresh roasted peanut taste unlike the other competitive peanut butter. I use to think that peanut butter was peanut butter until I purchased one of the other brands. boy, was I shocked! You …
OMG! Organic Matcha Powder
Matcha lattes are a big thing now and I believe there are actual caffes dedicated to that drink, which make it in different flavors. At first I was really grossed out by the idea of the green tea with milk, but then I tried it a few times and I …
Pepperidge Farms - Vegetables in Pastry Broccoli in cheese sauce
I picked up Pepperidge Farms Vegetables in Pastry Broccoli in Cheese Sauce, by chance at my local supermarket.
I was looking for something different and healthy to have for supper, and these two pastry-pockets seemed to fit the bill.
We don’t get a lot of Pepperidge Farm products in my small …
Great Value: English Double Fork Split Muffins
The Great Value: English Double Fork Split Muffins are the cheapest English muffins that I am able to find in a grocery store. Compared to the name brand companies that make and sell English muffins, these are just as good and at a price that is significantly lower than …
Everest, Kitchen King Masala (Spice Blend Powder)
When it comes to making vegetarian dishes tasty there is nothing like Indian Cuisine. The variety of dishes found in Indian cooking is vast.
Each and every state in India has its own unique dishes and variations.
I love to cook a variety of cuisines from all over the …
Lay’s Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
There was once a time when Doritos, Ruffles, and Pringles ruled my snacking and/or lunching experience. But over time, I began to be drawn to more natural flavors and textures. Suddenly chips with too much salt or seasoning weren’t that appealing to me. I think the …
Dreyer’s slow churned rich and creamy French vanilla ice cream
Dreyer’s slow churned rich and creamy French vanilla ice cream is one of my usual favorite choices when buying ice cream. The French Vanilla taste is authentic and very rich from Dreyer’s. Even though it is written slow churned, there is no much difference from usual Dreyer’s ice cream. …
McDonald’s Sausage McMuffin Value Meal
I haven’t been a big fan of McDonald’s for many years. It’s not really because of the chain itself, but of a local owner of two nearby McDonald’s and who in my opinion had some unfair business practices. I guess you could say I’ve had a private …
Allora Moka, Coffee by Segafredo Zanetti
When a friend brought Allora Moka, Coffee by Segafredo Zanetti to me I was so excited because the wrapping looked very nice so I was pretty sure that the coffee would be good too. That assumption was totally wrong. I am a big coffee fan and Moka coffee is my …
Frito Lay Barbeque Sunflower Seeds
Frito Lay hands down makes the best sun flower seeds. Their brand of barbeque flavor is simply amazing. Most sunflower seed companies use mostly a salt flavor for barbeque. Not this brand, of course they use salt as a main ingredient, but the flavor is a sweet barbeque. …
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 …
Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers
We made shredded pork sandwiches for dinner the other night and, to go with them, we decided to make a bag of Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers vegetables.
The sandwiches were good. The vegetables were actually a bit of a disappointment.
Green Giant used to offer quality when it came to …
Lumberg Wild Rice Cakes Lightly Salted
When you have a soy allergy, it is very hard to find something to snack on that is safe to eat. Well, these wild rice cakes fit the bill as they only contain a few ingredients, mainly rice and sea salt. I admit I never ate rice cakes before …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Cheesy Meatball Rigatoni
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Cheesy Meatball Rigatoni is quite a flavorful meal that I enjoy for the most part. About the only thing that I do not very much like about this meal are the meatballs. The meatballs simply are not very tasty. Perhaps it is because I like …
Golden Grahams Cereal
I am absolutely addicted to this stuff. I even get cravings for it. This cereal has not only become my primary breakfast food but it has also become my mid morning snack, afternoon snack, evening snack, and late night snack. I know I have a serious problem. But seriously. …
Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts
Although there is really nothing all that spectacular about Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts, I nonetheless find them to be a satisfying and delectable snack to have around the winter season. There is nothing holiday or winter-like about these donuts, aside from the decorative box. The donuts …
Bestlife Buttery Spread
Bestlife Buttery Spread is an alternative to the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter spread. Both spreads offer a spread that mimics the flavor of butter without the partially hydrogenated oils. It’s an alternative that I turn to when I don’t have a coupon for the I Can’t Believe …
Go Nuts Teazzings
I had cravings for a donut just a while ago and well, being with a friend, I took the opportunity to actually grab a bite of a donut or two. We ordered at Go Nuts Donuts, a local donut food chain here in the Philippines. I had a peanut …
Best Choice Canned Meat Filled Ravioli in Tomato Sauce
Everyone is trying to save money wherever they can these days. I think that it is easy to save money at the grocery store because you can trade generic products for more expensive name brand products. I have tried a few generic products, but my favorite brand is Best …
David Sunflower seeds
Sunflower seeds are a delightful snack along with a conduit for nervous energy. There are many brands of sunflower seeds but David is by far the tastier. As a snack David sunflower seeds are perfect because they are not filling. The tasty little seeds won’t ruin your appetite and …
Foster Farms Grilled Chicken Breast Strips
Foster Farms Grilled Chicken Breast Strips is one of the packaged meat products that I have recently purchased for the first time. I am a little cautious about what chicken items I buy, and Foster Farms products are one of the ones I tend to trust if I …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Deli Pride Cheeseburger
I ended up buying this 99 cent Deli Pride Cheeseburger the last time I went to Save-a-Lot. I figured, at very least, it would be a filling meal.
I have to say, it was one of the grossest lunches I have ever had.
First of all, the whole thing was soggy. …
Lipton Asian Sides
It is not uncommon for my family to dine on Asian cuisine at least once a week; it’s easy to make, inexpensive and a healthy alternative to the traditional Western fatty diet. I was intrigued to notice that Knorr-Lipton had entered the almost-instant food category with a new …
Crispy Fry Breading Mix
I don’t usually use breading mix in frying chicken or porkchops but just plain flour added with some ground black pepper. For me, using breading mix will only cost me more. There’s no difference for me. One time, I’ve ran out of flour and instead of …
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload!
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload! is an ice cream that I think will appeal to a majority of people that can’t get enough of peanut butter. There’s quite a lot of peanut butter flavor to this ice cream and it’s delightfully delicious, I think. First of all, the ice …
New Mountain Dew Flavors - Voltage,Revolution,Supernova

American Pride Bacon Grill Luncheon Loaf

Twix chocolate bar
Twix chocolate bar is my old time favorite. Since childhood I always asked my relative from states to bought me some dozen of it. This chocolate was introduced by my friend from school, a close friend of mine gave me one pieces of chocolate as a birthday present. And …
Cocco twin, 7 coconut snacks
I really like coconut snacks, I like Bounty and my sister likes it too so we were buying them quite often but then I discovered Cocco twin. We tried them and realized that we liked them even better than original Bounty. The fact that Cocco Twin costs less than …
Nescafe Taster’s Choice Decaffeinated Gourmet Instant Coffee
I’m probably a rarity in that I actually like instant coffee. I don’t have a coffee maker, so if I want coffee I have to use instant. I think that non-instant coffee is certainly better than instant, but in a pinch instant will definitely do.
I liked that this instant …
Little Debbie Chocolate Chip Creme Pies
I do not quite know what to say about this Little Debbie Chocolate Chip Creme Pies. Half of the cookie I rather like while the other half, I really find disappointing. What I like about this cookie is the rich and delightful as well as plentiful creme that is …

Special K Cereal Bars
Special K Cereal Bars are part of Special K’s effort to promote itself as “healthy”. They are portion controlled snack bars at 90 calories per bar, designed so that it’s easier to control your snacking. However, they taste so bad I wonder why anyone would want to have more …
Burger King Whopper
Every fast food chain has their star burger, usually featuring some nifty name designed to make customers remember it. The Burger King Whopper is one of my favorites and that’s because of several reasons.
First of all, the Burger King Whopper is big. Now I’m not talking about …
Casillero del Diablo Shiraz
When Lyndsey and I have put our two young children to bed we often open a bottle of wine to drink whilst relaxing after a busy day. This is our time together with what we want on television instead of watching Kurt and Josh’s favourite programme such as Mickey …
Mrs.Smiths Apple Pie
You will easily be able to convince people tah you cooked it yourself when you cook a Mrs.Smiths Apple pie. this is by far my favorite of the frozen pies. The pies is made so well that when you cook it, you would think taht you had made it …
Santa Maria Spanish Sardines ( Hot and Spicy )
I love sardines both those produced locally and abroad. Just recently I bought some Spanish sardines in Australia. The product in placed inside an easy-to-open oblong tin can. It is easy to open so this is handy and very quick to prepare. I find it ideal when you travel …
