I have had hit or miss luck with Heinz Tomato Ketchup. Sometimes, I will purchase a bottle and I will enjoy ketchup that is good and thick and other times, I will purchase a bottle and I will be disappointed with the watery makeup of the ketchup. I positively …
Elmlea Double Cream
I bought some Elmlea Double Cream not really noticing that it was not standard cream, but it was really delicious and fresh so I will make a point of buying this in future. Elmlea is actually a blend of vegetable oils and buttermilk which has the advantages of …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard is a flavor that I did not enjoy. I was expecting a different flavor from this pudding than I received. I expected this pudding to be sort of along the lines of eggnog, but what I got was a flavor that, well, lacked …
Ashirwad atta
How many of u know about the Ashirwad atta. Actually the name ashirwad is the brand name of the ready-made wheat flour, which is sold in many shops and also in super markets. It is just like any other ready-made wheat flour, which are kept for sale. …
Entenmann’s 8 Crumb Donuts
I was moderately impressed with Entenmann’s 8 Crumb Donuts. This is essentially a coffee cake made into a donut. The donut is on the crunchy side and features cinnamon baked into the crumb topping. This is a unique donut creation that I have not seen before. I personally feel …
Gorton’s Fish Sticks
I don’t eat fish sticks as much as I did when I was a kid, but when I do get a craving for them every now and then, I’ll buy a big bag of Gorton’s fish sticks.
The thing I like about the packaging of Gorton’s fish sticks is that …
Suncoast Gold Wasabi Macadamias
I love Japanese food that the love translates to love of wasabi. But how does one react to wasabi in macademia nuts? Doesn’t it sound strange?
Strange or not, it is here, the Suncoast Gold Wasabi Macadamias made by the …

Kellog’s Fruity Snacks (Cherry)
I was given a 70g pack of Kellog’s Fruity Snacks in cherry flavor by my auntie. Kellog’s Fruity Snacks is a line of fruit-flavored gummies. On my first bite, I didn’t like it much because it has some sort of a plastic taste. But after eating …
Knorr Beef Noodle Soup
It’s my first time to eat Knorr Beef Noodle Soup. It’s an easy to cook noodle soup that I saw in the grocery store. Soup is perfect when it’s cold and it’s raining.
Knorr Beef Noodle Soup has a different kind of noodle. It’s not long. It’s small and …
Mrs T’s Potato & Cheddar Pirogies
I am flat out addicted to these things! However they are something you really only must eat in moderation. Also, I don’t really recommend them to people who are trying to stay on a low carb diet or watch their weight… because these things are carb city!
What is a …
Conditorei Coppenrath and Wiese Toffee Cheesecake
Conditorei Coppenrath & Wiese are a Germany company and today I picked up their Toffee Cheesecake from my local supermarket Heron for only £1.25. Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts and I thought that was a good price. I prefer chocolate or toffee cheesecakes to fruit …
Ensure banana shake drink
Ensure banana shake drink is fantastic. I used to drink their vanilla health drink, only to hear so many people how it tastes like chalk and how could I drink such a drink. However I recently was in a supermarket and came across their new banana …
Great Value Pizzas
We decided to watch a movie last night and, because of that, kept dinner simple; frozen pizza. Rather than our normal brand, we ended up eating one of the Great Value Pizzas my wife picked up at Walmart on Saturday.
They weren’t bad but they weren’t great either.
My biggest complaint about …
Creme de Pirouline Artisan Rolled Wafers
One thing that I definitely love is chocolate especially sometimes when I’m having one of those cravings for something sweet. However, what dampens the mood each time is that I can’t seem to stomach things that are “too sweet”. Therefore, I usually end up eating certain brands of chocolate …
McDonald’s Iced Coffee
I really liked the Iced Coffee from McDonald’s I bought some the other day, and now I enjoy drinking a cup just about every afternoon. The coffee is strong, yet very tasty. It’s very refreshing and does cool you down. McDonald’s Iced Coffee really does make you feel good, …
SoBe LifeWater
I wasn’t sure how much I was going to like Sobe Lifewater, because every merchandiser delcares they’ve invented the next best thing since sliced bread. But I have to say, it’s actually pretty good. There’s some good and bad with it, as there is with everything.
First the …
Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard
A friend of mine went shopping at a local Big Lots store and ran across Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard. I had never heard of this brand, let alone dill mustard. But since I am a huge fan of dill, I was immediately intrigued. I was …
Nescafe Coffee
I am a big coffee drinker and I find coffee to be quite a great substitute for alcohol, or the equivalent of alcohol for me, as I do not consume alcohol at all.
One thing I can confidently say though, is that coffee is addictive and I am living evidence …
Nature’s Own: Flax Plus Pumpkin Raisin Crunch
Nature’s Own: Flax Plus Pumpkin Raisin Crunch is a cereal that I was disappointed in and will not be purchasing again as a result. Although this cereal is supposed to have a little pumpkin flavor to it, I did not taste any and that is one of the reasons …
Gordon’s Gin
There are certain traditions which seem to have been around since the dawn of time, but when they’re examined, you find that they are, in fact, fairly recent. There’s the America’s Cup. Everyone gets very excited about it and commentators go way, way back to discuss who won it …
Maxwell House Hazelnut Flavored Coffee
This coffee gave me a different experience during my morning rituals. Coffee has been our constant companion every morning when we eat our breakfast. When coffee started using flavors, it was the time that I happen to like testing various kinds of flavor. This one has a more distinct …
Koestlin Saltas peanuts
Koestlin Saltas peanuts are actually salted sticks filled with natural peanuts. I really like peanuts in everything so when I found out that they started making sticks with peanuts filling I had to try them out. I don’t usually eat sticks but since they started making these with peanuts …
Bounty chocolate bar
Bounty chocolate bar is one of the bars I really like. The coconut taste and the chocolate in a milk cream just go perfectly together. I still prefer Snickers to Bounty but Bounty is delitious too and if there’s no Snickers Bounty is my first choice.
Today there are so …
Dare Bear Paws - Chocolate Chip
Although maybe not the best choice for a snack nutrition wise, I love these cookies, and my kids always ask for them when we are at the store.
Price wise they are a fairly good deal, and I can usually get them on sale for less than two dollars. The …
Great Value Flame-Broiled Hamburger
Two Great Value Flame-Broiled Hamburgers come in a package at Walmart for two dollars and thirty cents. The hamburgers are individually wrapped and come on sesame buns.

Banquet Frozen Dinners are known for being inexpensive. You can buy them in almost any supermarket. I usually go shopping at Pathmark and they always have them there. They are the cheapest frozen dinner I can find in Pathmark. They usually cost only a dollar …
Harmoney Mint handkerchifs
I usually buy handkerchiefs from Paloma or Foxy, Scottex, Tender or something like that but the other day I went to Lidl and there they have so many thing that aren’t of any popular brand but they are good anyway.
So I bought this packet of handkerchiefs for less …
Presidents Choice Organics Medium Roast Coffee
I love my coffee, and I am always trying different perked brands to make at home. Recently I bought a 454gram bag of Presidents Choice Organics Medium Roast Coffee. I could smell a rich strong coffee, even from outside the bag, and thought this would be a good pick …
Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee
Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee offers a little taste of heaven. Considering the standard retail price of one sachet which is only PHP5, that is quite a feat! I’ve always patronized nescafe. However, before they introduced the 3 in 1 product, I could never get the flavor …
Silk Brand Chocolate Soy MIlk
Silk is known for their line of healthy soy milk drinks. One such drink is supposed to be a “rich, velvety” milk chocolate flavored beverage. My first roommate in college was adamantly vegetarian and gave me daily lectures on my murderous meat-eating ways, trying to force various …
Activia Vanilla & Cereal Yogurt
I used to eat Activia on and off for a few years. Recently I have not been able to because it makes me have to go to the bathroom more than frequently. It claims to regulate your digestive tract which is most likely true for people who …
Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack
I found the Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack online on Alice.com. These little apple snacks cost me $1.89 for a little 0.67 ounce pack —“ but, if you buy dried fruit, you know that none if it is cheap. Dried fruit is …
Aquafina Bottled Water
I love a tall cold glass of water in the steamy summer months of the south. Here in Tennessee, it gets quite hot and the humidity makes it feel even worse. So, a cold drink of water is a refreshing treat on those heated days.
One of my favorite brands …
Pataks Original Chapattis
I usually get ready to eat and packed chapatti from my favorite food brand which is Pataks Original, which I usually get at Tesco supermarket which is quite affordable. Pataks is known for their Indian dishes and packed meals. Since I love eating Indian dishes it …
Taco Bell Fiesta Taco Salad
Often when I eat at Taco Bell I eat the Fiesta Taco Salad. Because I am allergic to milk I get it without cheese and sour cream and I add a side of guacamole. I love the Taco Salad. I don’t eat it with those tortilla strips …
El Aguila Tortilla Chips
I’ve been avoiding purchasing snacks like chips for years because I don’t think they’re all that good for you with all the artificial flavors and preservatives and of course if I’m dieting there’s the empty calories. However, my boyfriend actually requested chips so I was trying to find some …
Diet Mountain Dew soda
I started a low carb diet a few weeks ago and finding things that I can drink has been a real challenge. While water makes up most of my liquid intake, sometimes I just need something with a little taste. I have never been a fan of diet soda, …
Nature Valley Oats ‘N Honey Granola Bar
Granola bars are something I have for my breakfast practically every morning. Unfortunately, I am not someone who is very fast at getting ready in the morning, so I always need something that I can quickly have that is relatively healthy. The Nature Valley honey and oats granola bar …
Common Mint, English Mint
Great stuff! I got my first regular Mint plant about a month and a half ago, bought it from Lowes garden center for around three bucks and fifty cents. I transplanted it immediately and it exploded with new growth the next day. Incredibly easy to grow and care for, …
Kahlner’s Louisiana Hot Sauce
I am a bargain hunter, especially when it comes to food. This is probably true due to the incredible amount of groceries that I buy each month. So, when I find a deal as sweet as this, I have to share it! Besides being a bargain hunter, I am …
Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes
The Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes are sold only at Walmart stores as this is a Walmart brand product. For twelve cakes, the price for a box is two dollars. I feel that the price for these cakes is fair considering the quantity and quality. The cakes never taste …
Kirkland signature water
We all need water to survive. A safe drinking water will lengthen this in some way. We drink water on a regular basis whether we like it or not. So how do we find a good source of water aside from the tap water we have. …
Boboli Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
I like to eat pizza, and was looking for a way to make it healthier. I saw that Boboli has a whole wheat pizza crust, and thought I would try it. When I first saw the crust, it looked thinner than the original Boboli pizza crust. …
Mamee monster snack
Mamee monster - The title alone will create the impression of a terribly unhealthy, but incredibly delicious snack. It is one of the better ‘Made in Malaysia’ snacks, as compared to snacks like ‘Super ring’ (a cheap version of Cheezels) and the like.
Mamee monster is essentially a packet of …
Pampa Apple Juice Boxes
I was in the mood for some apple juice this morning. Since I don’t have a way to refrigerate something like that at work, I had to buy juice boxes.
I hate buying most brands because they are always geared toward kids and you don’t get enough juice for your …
