Of all the candies, this one is a chocolate bar. Frankly, I don’t know why Cadbury labels this a candy, when it’s not a candy in the real sense. My idea of a candy is that it is most likely round, hard and sweet. But all …

Taco Bell has come out with what they are calling Cantina tacos, which come in two soft corn tortillas doubled up, with cilantro and onions as well as a lime wedge. The fast food restaurant offers three meat choices - carnitas (marinated pork), steak, and chicken. For …

Bird’s Eye Viola three cheese chicken is another meal I wanted to try, and mainly because it had the word “cheese” in the title. As far as I’m concerned, you can’t go wrong with noodles and cheese.
The thing I liked about the three cheese chicken is that I didn’t …

I do not find Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies to be all that good at all. While there is most definitely a chocolate flavor baked into the brownies, there is not nearly enough to create a truly delicious brownie treat. These brownies could also be a little more moist than …

This is not the best flavored Lean Cuisine meal you can buy, but the portion size is good. Lean Cuisine describes this meal as: “Tender spaghetti served with a flavorful beef sauce made with tomatoes, sliced mushrooms and basil. Accented with garlic and black pepper.” It’s part of the …

Getting a frozen alfredo type dish …

Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews was picked by me because of price advantage over full pieces. Around half of the box was broken pieces and rest was halves of cashews. The cashews seemed roasted and processed. Evidently the quality grade of cashews was pretty low. This was …

I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. From the outside it looks smart, clean and tasteful, with its wooden floors and attractive oriental designs. It has a very clean-cut and modern feel to it, and it has a sense of minimalism, which immediately makes …

So, when I recently discovered Tai …

My wife made pancakes the other day and, to go with it, cooked up some Food Club sliced bacon.
I love bacon and really appreciated the gesture. But, compared to other brands of bacon, I have to say the Food Club brand was a major disappointment. And, it’s really hard …

These chocolate edible wafer straws are not at all bad. The chocolate flavor is not incredibly rich or flavorful - they are actually a bit on the mild side, although the mild flavor is still good. They are certainly crunchy though, and I definitely like that. Do these edible …

In my family cheap ice creams aren’t very popular. My parents and my sister would rather buy a very expensive ice cream just once a week than several cheaper ice creams so that they could eat ice cream every day in the week. I am not like that …

I ultimately decided to try Crush Grape after having positive results with their original flavor called Crush Orange. My neighborhood Albertson was running a sale on two liter bottles of Crush Grape for a $1.69. Now when it comes to fruit flavored soda, I tend to go initially for …

Stouffer’s Pepperoni French Bread Pizza is not a variety of pizza that I care for all that much. It is not that I do not like pepperoni, quite the opposite really, but I do not find the pepperoni on this pizza to be too tasty at all. Yes, there …

I absolutely love cooking. It’s relaxing, fun and passes the time and never gets old. So to say, I like to keep seasonings on hand to properly flavor my food. There’s more to food, than salt, fat and sugar.
I purchased Simply Asia Sweet Ginger Garlic Seasoning from Kroger after …

Before I stopped eating meat, ham sandwiches were one of my absolute favorite lunches. I definitely missed it when I gave up meat, but I found that Smart Deli’s baked “ham” was a really great substitution for the real thing. I’ve tried almost all of the veggie meats on …
