This is a first Croatian ketchup that I really like, most of them were just too sweet or didn’t even look nor tasted like ketchup but this one really does. It comes in a plastic red bottle with a flat cap so that you can turn it upside down …

Lately I’ve been on a hunt for a perfect, smooth peanut butter for my toasts and snacks. Jif Peanut Butter is probably one of my favourites because of its relatively clean ingridients list and the low price. But even when I’m in love with a certain food, I don’t stop …

Brach’s Candy Corn is a sweet treat that I am very much addicted to - or was addicted to before I came across the delicious creation known as caramel candy corn. Now, I have no desire to purchase just plain old regular candy corn any longer. Before I knew …

What I like about this variety of bagged salad is that they mix romaine, iceberg and cabbage together and that gives this salad a couple different flavors and textures. Iceberg lettuce is my absolute favorite, and the iceberg lettuce that I get out of this bagged salad is consistently …

We have come to patronize Save More Supermarket not only because it is nearest our place, but also because its operating hours is from 7 a.m. up to 9 a.m. Every Wednesday at 7.a.m. my family shops there, taking advantage of the almost deserted grocery. Although this grocery is …

If you have not tried Hershey’s Hugs yet, you definitely should! They are a branch off from the standard Hershey’s Kisses, only it’s regular milk chocolate “hugged” in white chocolate. What a way to dress up a regular Hershey’s Kiss! These are much better, and they …

I was really intrigued about Magnum ice cream because of the TV commercial that is associated with feeling like a royalty. So I have to buy it and decide it is worth the hype.
I bought mine from the local convenient store and it is Php55 ($1.37USD). Judging from the …

We were making something else …

The Filet-O-Fish is a fish burger that’s been sold in McDonalds since 1962. It’s a great alternative for people like myself who don’t eat meat, and it’s been one of my favourite fast-food snacks for as long as I can remember.
The bun is nice and soft, and is …

It’s too bad I’m not really that crazy about the flavor of this popcorn because I like that this popcorn is made with canola oil. Since it’s made with canola oil, there’s not quite as much saturated fat and there’s even some good things to be found in this …

Grandessa Signature Frozen Fruit Bars Strawberry aren’t the best. I kind of expected more from the frozen fruit bars because the packaging stated that they were all natural and filled with real strawberries. When I took a bite into one of these frozen fruit bars though, what I got …

It says on the package: “Delicious bread crisps seasoned with onion”. And I have to agree with that statement. “Bake Rolls” is indeed delicious.

This sauce is one of …

One of my favorite TV dinner brands is Marie Callendar’s. This is going to sound weird, but these dinners don’t really taste like TV dinners, for the most part. Just because they go in the microwave doesn’t automatically make them bad. These dinners have a homestyle taste that I …

I quite liked this energy drink from Nature’s Nectar. I didn’t like it as much as the raspberry and cranberry blend that is also made by the same company, but as a pure cranberry drink, this drink satisfied me. I liked how this energy drink actually reminded me of …
