Bristot Classic Esspresso Coffee
I really can’t do without the coffee in the morning, it is actually the first thing I do when I open my eyes to go and put the moka on the stove to boil. I like to have a lot of coffee at home so that it never happened …
PG Tips Tea
When Americans think of tea, they usually think of iced tea. We tend to be a nation of coffee-drinkers, for the most part. In American schools, we learn about the Tea Tax and the Boston Tea Party. Tea is something that people in faraway countries drink everyday.
However, there is …
Gobstoppers
One of my favorite kinds of candy is Gobstoppers. They are small jawbreakers that come in different colors and flavors. They also come with regular kind insides or chewy insides, but the chewy ones are a little harder to find. I like them both, but I …
365 Plain Greek Yogurt (32 oz)

Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake
I feel that Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake is worthy of being purchased if you are someone that enjoys the flavor combination of vanilla and chocolate. Although there is certainly more vanilla to this marble cake than chocolate, both flavors I feel are still represented well and both flavors come …
Drumstick Original Vanilla Ice Cream Cones
When it comes to eating ice cream cones, going to a fancy ice cream shop is never as good as buying the Nestle Drumstick original vanilla ice cream cones. You get the nice toppings with no mess or the fuss.
The box I of Drumstick’s ice cream I purchased had …
Chocolate Samba
I am not a chocolate lover. I am not the kind of girl that loves to eat chocolates and not the kind that craves for one either. Well, to be honest there is only about 5 chocolates that I would be caught eating. Others I would only try but …

The first time I heard about the instant drink “Tang” was quite a few years ago in the nineteen nineties. I can remember that at the time the colour of the packet it came in was black and green and the only flavour which I knew they had was …
Reese’s Pieces Peanut Butter Candies
As I mentioned in another review, the Reese’s company (part of Hershey) had such success with their yummy peanut butter cups that they’ve begun to spread their wings quite a bit. One of the first variations of their famous candy treat that they came up with is Reese’s …
Dannon Activia Light Yogurt Fat-Free Strawberry Banana

I have become so bored of plain bottled water and pop lately, and as I seem to be living through the longest heat wave I can remember, I have been looking for refreshing drinks, that are not full of sugar, calories and carbohydrates, and that taste good while keeping …
Mrs. Dash’s Southwest Chipotle Salt-Free Seasoning Blend
I like Mrs. Dash’s salt-free blends. I think they’re a great alternative to other forms of seasoning that have lots of sodium. I really think they try hard to create the best possible flavor mixtures without adding salt.
Their Southwest Chipotle blend is perfect for any dish that calls for …
Mint Schmint: Ice Breakers Restore
I noticed Ice Breakers is making sugar-free mints that deviate from the typical “breath-freshening” purpose. Ice Breakers Restore and Ice Breakers Energy sat in 5 neat rows beside the magazine rack, staring at me as I stood in line to buy groceries. Just the appearance of the packaging made …
Solen GoFresh with hazelnuts

Kellogg’s Frosted Mini-Wheats Strawberry Delight
I did not like this cereal at all because it is just way too sweet and the strawberry flavor is so incredibly artificial that it is terrible! The strawberry flavor is really nothing at all like the taste that a real strawberry has. I was very disappointed by this …
Fast Fixin chicken breast nuggets
Fast Fixin chicken breast nuggets was put under promotional items in Albertsons and that was how I found about this. The pack was huge and for five dollars there was good value for money since there were good number o nuggets inside the pack. The packing was resealable which …

Dickinson’s Lemon Curd
For those unfamiliar with lemon curd, this sugary spread is typically used on English scones. However, I like having it with many other breakfast foods. The quality of jarred lemon curd seems to run the gamut between abysmal and superb. Dickinson’s is the best I’ve tried so far.
If I’m …
Idahoan Instant Potatoes
I decided to give instant potatoes another try. I am not big on instant potatoes, but I figured they are handy to have in the house. They only take a few minutes to make, and when you are in a pinch it is nice to have mashed potatoes as …

Bojangle’s French Fries
If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I think I would pick the fries from Bojangles. Unfortunately for me there aren’t any of the fast food chain restaurants around me. Maybe that should be fortunately since I probably would never eat anywhere else. …
Applebee’s Riblets
Applebee’s riblets are small ribs that actually taste pretty good. The ribs are tender and easy to chew. That is important to me because I hate to chew tough meat. However, since I live in a town known for its tasty barbeque Applebee’s riblets are not the best, not …

Oscar Mayer Little Smokies
I love the taste of these little sausages and I tend to buy them once the air outside grows cool and nippy. There’s nothing better on a cold day than a meal prepared with some Little Smokies to add some extra flavor. I guess a lot of people use …

3 Musketeers with Cherry and Dark Chocolate

Stouffer’s Pepperoni French Bread Pizza
