If you put candy in front of me chances are good that it will not last very long. I thank my genetic and fast metabolism regularly. My husband loves to bring me snacks on a fairly frequent basis.
My daughter loves M&M Mini’s while I prefer mine with …

Seasoning salt seems a rather silly thing to get excited about, because in reality, aren’t all seasoning salts made with the same ingredients, and look and taste exactly alike? I thought so too-generally, I tried to always have some on hand, mainly to flavour steaks, hamburgers and even salads, …

White Castle Microwaveable Cheeseburgers are actually a pretty good tasting quick way of having cheeseburgers for lunch, dinner, or even a snack. They come in packages of six, or some convenience stores have them in packages of two. Even inside the six-pack, they are wrapped in three …

I want to eat healthy but I do not want the food to taste healthy. I know that seems odd but I like to be able to have joy and satisfaction out of my meals with out them adding to my waist line. The best thing about this meal …

I have long been a fan of Betty Crocker products, and have tried a variety of her hamburger helper meals over the years, but I had never tried the Chili Macaroni flavour until now. What really made me buy it at my local supermarket was the picture of the …

Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Turtle Sundae is an enjoyable treat that offers a tasty combination of vanilla, caramel and salted pecans. It may not sound like a whole lot, but it is a simple combination of flavors that just works - assuming you enjoy the three aforementioned …

I have tried several brands of frozen pizza, inexpensive but good, that taste no different than freshly cooked. However, Tombstone Original Canadian Style Bacon is not one of them. It was sold right next to DiGiorno and Jack’s and other kinds I like. Tombstone pizza was being offered 2 …

I am disappointed with this product. I expected it to be heavily blueberry-flavored but no, it wasn’t. The cream between the two pieces of biscuit looks like caramel cream. It doesn’t even look like blueberry cream, and the layer of cream is so thin that it was …

On a recent trip to the ABC store I came across Malibu’s new Passion fruit rum. I have always been a fan of fruity drinks so I decided to give it a try. I was very impressed with this rum and think I will definitely be buying it again. …

Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar PB Stix turned out to be quite the disappointment for me. The reason I found them to be disappointing is because the flavor was not what I was expecting. Since this is a low calorie snack food, the snack food itself suffers …

When I was younger I remember Mentos were very popular and if you bought one pack, although it was really big, if you took it in the class with you everybody would ask you to give them one so they’d be gone very soon. Lately I haven’t seen many …

Among coffee lovers, there is a secret rift seldom talked about: the “great divide” between those who swear by traditionally brewed coffee and those who actually prefer instant coffee. I am one of these. To me, nothing beats a good instant coffee.
However, I am very picky about instant coffee. …

Hostess Ding Dongs are a whole lot like Hostess Cupcakes. They have a somewhat harder chocolate frosting exterior, a soft chocolate cake interior and have white creme in the middle. There is more creme in Ding Dongs than the cupcakes though, and the Ding Dong itself is a little …

I typically love mint teas, and decided to try Bigelow’s Plantation Mint tea. It smells great while hot, and the first few sips are very pleasant. I usually add about two teaspoons of sugar, which brings out the mint flavor a bit more. And although the …

I was shopping in the dairy selection of my neighborhood Walmart, looking to stock up on yogurt. Usually I go for my favorite most trusted brand, but I’m all for trying new brands when the opportunity shows itself. Given that I’ve indulged in Yoplait in the past, I didn’t …

I was looking for a different kind of snack, and Nugatti Twist Hazlenut/Milk Spread in a 200gram plastic jar caught my eye. I had never seen anything like it, and as I love hazelnuts I thought I would give it a try.
This product came in a clear jar with …

A large, 300-gram bag of Arnott’s Shapes was given to me by a friend recently. It was the first time I saw and tasted this product as it has never really been available in the grocery stores I frequent: Shopwise and Waltermart, both in Makati City.
Arnott’s Shapes is …

I picked up the new Magnum Double Peanut Butter ice cream bars the other day at the store after seeing several adds for it on tv. I am a sucker for anything with peanut butter and chocolate. The cost was $3.99 for a box of 3.
This …

When I was younger I remember there were a lot of commercial on TV for Mentos candies and those commercials were very nice as I recall. Now I don’t see those commercials any more. A few days ago I went to the shop and I took one big pack …

The other day my wife told me that Sonic’s now has a dollar menu. That’s always good news to me, I like cheap food. This morning on the way to work I stopped by Sonic’s and tried the breakfast burrito off the dollar menu. I wasn’t insanely impressed with …

I was a bit reluctant to order this dish. The description in the menu explains that the chicken breast is diced, seasoning, deep-fried, and then tossed in a spicy/sweet orange sauce. It is served with steamed white rice on a bed of crunchy vegetables. …

I like a YoGo every now and then as I find them to be refreshing and flavorful. The yogurt covering these fruit snacks is soft and does not weigh me down after I have a pouch. The two flavors that come in this variety pack are pretty good, too. …

I do not add a lot of salt to my diet, except for chips and baked potatoes mostly, and I do not usually buy salted butter, but I tried this butter from Morrisons own brand for a change, called Brittany Butter with Sea Salt Crystals. I was brought …

When I am at the mall I sometimes have no idea what to have to eat for lunch. I love that there are a wide variety of places and foods to choose from though and as I was on my way to buy a portion of chicken noodles from …

Let me admit up front that I’m a member of the Pepsi generation. I love it. When I was very young, though, my family drank coke. Then we discovered pepsi, and coke disappeared from our house. Since then, the times I’ve had coke can be …

Among all the chocolates Lindt are really one of those that I can’t resist. I like chocolate but Lindt is a special kind of chocolate, they have different kinds of chocolates but as I like dark chocolate Lindt Berne is one of my favourite. Lindt Berne small chocolate comes …

These delectable little chips are scrumptious and sweet! Every chip has a pretty rich and lasting banana flavor and every chip is pleasantly crunchy. The chips are actually dried bananas, but they are crispy, just like regular potato chips. As soon as I open the little bag, a real …

Not being a fan of beer, I sometimes buy a case of malt - a sweet beverage some refer to as “beer for ladies.” Recently, I have tried Bacardi Silver RAZ. It is a clear, slightly bubbly drink with the taste of raspberry. A pack of six 12 fl.oz. …

Why have half a cashew when whole cashews are so well priced? I use cashews in a lot of my Oriental cooking, and my husband thinks they are what television was invited for…….to munch really good cashew nuts!
The Fisher Premium While Cashews come in a can that is bright …

With the name of Simply Orange orange juice, it is quite obvious what the product is. But, I must admit I like the name because it gives confidence that there are not a lot of other ingredients in the drink that aren�t good for you. Simply Orange …

I prefer the Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry compared to the Nature’s Path: Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastry. The reason I prefer the non-frosted over the frosted is because the non-frosted variety allows me to better appreciate and enjoy the blueberry flavor. Speaking of the blueberry flavor, I find the …

When it comes to condiments, nothing is better than tartar sauce. I started eating it in elementary on the “fish” days for lunch, and I have continued to eat tartar sauce throughout the years. I’m not really sure how long Kraft has been making tartar sauce, but I just …

I bought a tray of Mango Angel Torte of Goldilocks. This is almost like a refrigerator cake or Crema de Fruta that well are mostly familiar with. Actually when I bought this I was thinking I was buying just another variant of refrigerator cake. Well I think I was …

I was given the chance to try Akins treat endulge: peanut butter cups, when I was looking to satisfy my hunger until I could get lunch. I’m not a avid user of Akin products nor I am following their diet. I was given the treat by a friend who …

For the first time in years, I didn’t cook a whole turkey for the holidays. I visited family, and they didn’t serve turkey. Now, I didn’t say anything, since I wanted to be polite, but I had a real craving for turkey. It’s traditional. So …

I love eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. For sandwiches, and just peanut butter in general i always like to buy JIF. i think their creamy peanut butter has a much more creamy taste to it than the otehr compearble peanut butters. this is a really great tasting peanut …

An important part of any diet is fruit. One of the easiest fruits to grow in a small amount of space is Blueberries. I was in our local Wal-Mart the other day I grabbed two Blue crop Blueberry plants for $3.96 each to set out in …

I couldn’t resist trying this frozen panini when I saw it in the supermarket. I’ve never had an actual Philly cheese steak, but I’ve always wanted to try one, and I thought this might be the closest I could come for a while.
This panini takes steak and combines …

This week I bought my first package of Keebler Fudge Shoppe Fudge Sticks in quite some time. I have had them before, but it’s been awhile since I purchased them. I was in the mood for something different, though, and these were on sale, so it was …

Smiley’s Cheeseburger Sandwich can be found in the refrigerated cases at grocery stores for one dollar and twenty-five cents. In the small box comes one cheeseburger. This is not a mini-hamburger and it’s similar in size to the quarter pound hamburgers sold at fast food restaurants. Served with fries, …

Stouffer’s Chicken Asiago is a pretty tasty sandwich that I enjoy having for lunch. What makes it tasty? Well, for one, the grilled chicken is quite enjoyable. It is very tender and it has a good flavor to it. Then, there are sun dried tomatoes on top of the …

Today I am going to be reviewing Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA. I love regular Sierra Nevada Pale Ale but the IPA version is just awesome. I can still remember the first day I tried one at my friends house. The taste of it was so good when it was …

My mother never used to make bean soups when I was little so I never had the opportunity to eat nor to get used to it. Actually she was preparing something like minestrone with beans but never a bean soup so when my friend offered me to try Knorr …

Dillman Farm - All Natural Pear Butter Fruit Spread is a flavor variety that I did not particularly care a whole lot for. Although pears are not something that I find myself craving too often, I have tried to include more in my diet because of the health benefits …

I have to admit that Klondike Big Bar Ice Cream Sandwiches are yummy. I also have to say they’re darn expensive, which is why I don’t get them very often. Still, for a treat, they’re hard to beat.
The silver package with the white polar bear has been …

I am always looking for other juices to purchase from the grocery store for my two children. After trying many of the juices on the market I have come to a problem of running out of things to offer my children that are new or different. Everyone gets a …

I am the mother of 3 children. Naturally I love my kids and always struggle to do the best for them. My elder boy is 12 years old and he is good by all means but the only problem with him is, he is not having enough …

This is a gorgeous, creamy pasta sauce that is one of my favourites. In fact, to date, it is the only shop-bought tomato pasta sauce that I actually like. This is the type of sauce that you heat and stir into pasta shapes and tonight I had …

Stouffer’s Cheesy Spaghetti Bake disappointed me because I really enjoy cheese, and I expected this dinner to be quite cheesy and offer a rich cheese flavor. Unfortunately, this meal did not live up to my expectations. While I could certainly taste both the Parmesan and mozzarella cheese, I did …
