I live in a tropical country wherein it is very important to keep the body hydrated all the time. Aside from drinking pure water, I also drink healthy beverages at times and even carbonated drinks. However, carbonated drinks are not just healthy for the body. Recently, I have come …

I have been a fan of ramen noodles for some time now, but I had not tried Yakisoba noodles before. Although I am not sure what the difference is between ramen noodles and Yakisoba noodles (even after trying them both they seem very similar), I could not resist trying …

Last night, my friend and I decided to venture into Hooters. Being from Texas, the local Hooters restaurants are owned under a different company, the Texas Wings Association, and the food quality isn’t so bad. Down south, the food can at least taste better than those bar nachos you …

I am a terrible cook. I usually prepare easy-to-cook food at home. I can cook fried food and some vegetables in a matter of minutes. I have tried several times to try other dishes but to no avail. I just couldn’t get the exact taste for those dishes. It …

This lemonade is compareable to many of the big lemonade brands such as Homeade and Minute Maid. It is actually a lot better in my opinion. My mom did not buy Minute Maid because it was too expensive, so she went with these cans of Big K pink lemonade. …

This is a newly released flavor from Selecta Ice Cream. As a chocolate person and a person who has sweet tooth, I love tasting different flavors of ice cream. Selecta recently re-launched “The Hersheys Collection”. Right after, there were several new flavors. One of those which captured me is Coffee …

Cracker Barrel offers this delicious entrée only during the summer months. From the picture posted on their website, it looks like a cornucopia of meat and vegetables: you see big chunks of beef chuck roast with whole red potatoes, large pieces of carrots, onions, and two serving sizes …

During the summer season, Cracker barrel offers some limited-time entrees at very affordable prices. I’ve tried about two of them, both called “Campfire”. My favorite between the two is the Campfire Chicken. This entrée offers a tremendous amount of food for less than $8. First …

I normally order the sourdough soup bowl with a cream-based soup, like creamy tomato or broccoli cheese. But this time, I decided to get something a little healthier and ordered the Chicken Noodle soup which is labeled as a low-fat choice. Other low-fat options for soup include …

Panera makes good bread! I think anyone who has visited this bakery/restaurant can tell you their breads does not even compare to the supermarket variety. The flavors are well-developed and well-rounded, the crust is expertly created, and the interior is bubbling with holes that can only be …

One of my favourite foods to eat is cheddar cheese even though I know it’s not good for me. Sometimes, I indulge anyway and even use it when cooking some things.
The first time I heard about “Crest Processed Cheddar Cheese” was one summer when the nearest supermarket to …

I went to the PX goods supermarket yesterday to pick up some foreign food stuff to add to my grocery list. As I walked past the freezer section, I saw Sara Lee products! I was so overwhelmed with their pre-made cakes that I did not know which ones to …

I have been craving for Japanese food so my sister decided to make sushi for the day. We went to the Japanese supermarket nearby and looked for ingredients for our home-made sushi. We finally bought all the ingredients needed and then we decided we needed a good mayonnaise to …

When I transitioned from my late teens to my 20s, I started to watch what I ate. Sadly, this meant no more deep-fried foods, substituting lean meats for beef, upping my vegetable intake about three times, and watching the amount of sugar I ate. This is sadly …

Drinking daily juice is one of my habits because it is a good source of vitamin C. Orange juice is the most common orange juice flavor and it has variations as well. Some are sourced from western oranges and some are from mandarin orange. Ponkana is from mandarin orange. It …

Those who grew up in the 60s and early 70s remember the delicious taste of Mountain Dew out of a bottle with a hayseed on it. The hicks in the sticks ambiance associated with that Mountain Dew apparently did not jibe with the evolution of American drinking habits during …

Only in a college town would you expect to see a cookie shop with delivery service. That would be Hot Box Cookies in Columbia Missouri.
I love the story behind the shop. Three college students who were friends came up with the concept and opened their own business …

To order online you must first go to Dominos.com, of course. On the top you will find …

I frequent this Burger King on Racetrack Road in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as it is close enough for me to walk, less than 1/2 mile. One of my favorite things to get there is the Original Chicken Sandwich.
Its regular $2.69 but I like to get it on …

DeliMex Soft Chicken and Cheese Tacos are located in the freezer compartment of the supermarket. Although they are called “tacos”, they are not in traditional soft taco shells or even crispy taco shells. Instead, they are basically rolled up in flour tortillas much like taquitos, but these soft tacos …

This is a great health food. I first found out about it on Dragon’s Den where they pitched the idea to entrepreneurs and sold the product very well.

Sometimes we are blinded by imperial mentality that we believe the good tasting coffees are from Starbucks, Maxwell or Folger’s. I had this thinking before until I tried Coffee Break. I have an aunt who is based in Saudi Arabia and she sends us stuffs from there. One of the …

I bought this product from Canada. Just lately I was trying to perfect my culinary skill specifically in pastas. Lasagna is one of the most delicious treat for me after Carbonara or Fettucini. I always go for imported brands when it comes to pasta although some of our locally-produced are …

Chowking is one of the most popular Chinese fast food restaurants in the Philippines. They have a lot of branches already and they have been in the business for years now.
One day while shopping at the streets of Quiapo, I was so hungry that seeing Chowking in the corner …

I don’t normally try these 100 calorie or 90 calorie snack packs, partially because I prefer to make snacks from scratch and partially because I find them a bit annoying - as if you can’t just enjoy a little snack, the company has to portion control for you. But …

I can count on one hand the number of times that I have ever tried cassava chips, but out of those few times, I had never gotten to try “St. Mary’s Cassava Chips”. However, just recently I had gotten to try the St. Mary’s Barbeque Cassava Chips after a …

I love Nestle hot chocolate! It’s delicious. It’s so creamy and sweet! When I was younger, I used to purposely leave a little of the clumpy mix at the bottom of my cup so I could spoon out the gooey goodness after I was done drinking the hot cocoa. …

Most of the time I buy rice pasta but it is not as easy to come by. I have to drive all the way to my closest Trader Joe’s, which isn’t too close or I have to pay too much for some online. Since I don’t have celiac disease …

I bought this drink out of curiosity, really. The proclamation of bubbles melting on my tongue enticed me to give Nestle’s latest offering in the heated beverages department a whirl. When boiling water is added, it is true, an impressive crop of bubbles forms, much like when you froth …

Tesco Orange Juice has always been a staple of my life, I don’t remember a time when I didn’t begin a morning by drinking a carton, often timing myself to see how quickly it could be drunk. The juice is not particularly high-quality, I realise, but it’s what orange …

I have an addiction to coffee, actually caffeine and coffee fits the bill while warming me up on a chilly morning. I also have an addiction to trying new things to see if I can improve on what I’m using. I recently saw an opportunity to get free samples …

I have been drinking Milo from Nestle since I was a kid. After coffee, my next favorite drink is Milo. This product has evolved over the years but still the same quality of chocolatey taste. When I was a kid instead of milk, I usually asked my mom to …
