Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar
These Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar variety are much, much more tolerable than the downright hideous chocolate variety that I simply could not possibly stomach. While I did just say they are much, much more tolerable, I did not say they were excellent, or even great. The powdered sugar …
Yoplait Blueberry Acai
Yoplait Blueberry Acai is a pretty tasty variety of yogurt and it is one of my favorite flavor varieties to reach for, right after the strawberry, banana and vanilla varieties. Every spoonful is loaded with a rich, blueberry flavor that is very authentic and most definitely reminds me of …
Barilla Jarred Pasta Sauce
I love Spaghetti. Sometimes, though, it’s hard to cut out some time to make sauce homemade. Barilla jarred sauce takes that burden away. They have all kinds of sauces in various flavors and styles. My family and I are partial to the marinera sauce. We use it on all …
Best Choice Diet Cola
In an effort to drastically cut our expenses, my husband and I have recently started buying generic products to replace the more expensive products we have purchased in the past. I am addicted to diet colas and usually drink the expensive, name brand drinks. However, I recently …
Annie Chun’s Udon Soup Bowl
I decided to try this “All Natural Asian Cuisine” Soup only partially because of the meal it provides. It came in its own microwave bowl, and I thought it might be reusable enough to microwave my customary bowl of morning oatmeal. When I spotted it in the grocery section …
Mother’s Chocolate Chip Little Bites Cookies
Not long ago the Mother’s brand was in danger of disappearing from the scene. After being in business since 1914, the California bakery and cookie distributor couldn’t outlast this difficult economy and recession. They folded up. Fortunately, the brand was salvaged and is now owned by …
Marketside Five Cheese Traditional Crust Pizza
This pizza is sold in the deli section at Super Walmart stores. It’s a pizza made by Walmart, so it can’t be found elsewhere. The pizza is twelve inches and just under five dollars. There are five cheeses on this pizza: Romano, Monterey Jack, Provolone, Parmesan and Mozzarella. I …
Glutino Gluten Free Original Crackers
If you want a mild and light tasting cracker that is gluten free then this is a great choice. Unlike other gluten free crackers, this type is not powdery. These are very easy to eat and are very convenient to have when you are sick. I started to buy …
Country Time Lemonade
I have given up drinking soda forever and substituted it with Country Time Lemonade. I love the flavor and it reminds me of my childhood. During those excruciatingly hot summer days my mom used to make these fabulous pitchers of Country Time Lemonade. That rich flavor of lemon seemed …
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange is an orange drink with a new twist. The name says it all. It contains natural orange pulp that sets it apart from regular commercialized orange juices. It just took me one sip to know that this drink would be a regular in our fridge. …
Fit & Active Cheddar Cheese Rice Snacks
Although I like caramel more than cheddar cheese, the cheddar cheese rice snacks are definitely tastier than the caramel rice snacks from Fit & Active. The cheddar cheese flavoring certainly catches my attention with every bite and makes for a snack item that is enjoyable to have. The rice …
St. Dalfour Organic Pure Darjeeling Tea
St. Dalfour is known for its high quality of jams, preserves, packaged meals and teas. I only recently discovered their teas, and I am glad I did. I have yet to find tea that is of the same high quality as this brand.
I really like that this tea offers …
Dannon Pure Yogurt Cups
I was at the grocery store with my boyfriend and we were looking for a healthy snack to have on hand when we get hungry and we decided to pick up some of a case of the Dannon Pure Yogurt Cups in the flavors of Strawberry and Blueberry and …
Lean Cuisine Four Cheese Cannelloni
I eat Lean Cuisines for one reason if I am honest, I am lazy. I try to keep my weight down and I do not feel like making a meal just for myself so if I am alone for the night I heat whatever I pull out of …
Anmum Materna Chocolate powdered drink
Another flavor for the healthy drink for pregnant women or expectant mothers which is great because it offers a different but yummy chocolate taste. It has the same ingredients as the Original Milk flavor of Anmum Materna and the same benefits for pregnant women. But it’s a …
Kix Cereal
I remember Kix from my childhood. Those little round balls of goodness were “Kid Tested-Mother Approved” and it certainly seemed that way to me. I loved them! So, now that I am a mother of my own I saw a two pack on sale and figured it would be …
Lean Cuisine Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry
I’m becoming a big fan of Lean Cuisine meals, the more I try, the more I like! This is the first time I’ve had Lean Cuisine Chicken Teriyaki. Their website describes it as “Roasted chicken breast topped with water chestnuts, carrots and red bell peppers in slightly sweet teriyaki …
Mr. Pudding - Vanilla
I’ve only seen Mr. Pudding pudding products at ALDI, and I think I know why: they just aren’t that good. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla pudding, and the same can be said for the chocolate pudding, too. Four cups come in a pack and each cup is three …
C-Boost Tropical Fruit Smoothie
As a born again health fanatic, I am always on the lookout for new tasty treats with the added health benefits. During one of the lazy Sunday afternoons, I was shopping for a few bare necessities at my local Kroger food store in Lexington, KY when I came across …
McIlhenny Company Tabasco Hot Sauce
I would like to play captain obvious for a moment and say that this particular sauce can only really be enjoyed by fans of spice. So I will, and just have. With that out of the way, let’s find out why this sauce can actually improve your quality of …
Bovril Concentrated Bouillon
I admit that this product is one of my secret weapons in my recipe arsenal.
I use this product (by Knorr, Unilever) in a lot of my cooking.
It’s excellent as a base for soups and it’s the main ingredient of my gravy.
I buy both the liquid and the powdered versions …
Michelina’s Chicken Fried Rice
This is a delicious frozen meal that I love to have on occasion. It’s not exactly filling on its own, so I tend to have to add some mashed potatoes and bread, but when I do that, I end up getting filled up mighty nicely and I end up …
Apple & Eve 100% Naturally Cranberry Juice
My favorite kind of juice to drink is cranberry, but I am very particular about the brand I like because each brand of cranberry juice has its own sweetness and tartness. I like my cranberry juice to by slightly sweet and a bit more tart and that is why …
Hellman’s Real Mayonnaise
I have been a Hellman’s Real Mayo user for years and was happy to participate in a campaign with Bzzagent.com whereby you try out products and then spread buzz about those products. The buzz should be honest and if you dislike a product, they want to know about …
Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub Wheat Beer
Hefeweizens are my absolute favorite type of beers, especially as a light beer, but I typically prefer them on draft as opposed to in a bottle. However, I’m really glad I decided to buy this Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub because it has quickly become one of my favorite Hefeweizens.
This wheat …
Mango frooti
Mango frooti is the very good drink from the Nesle Company. It is the drink which tastes exactly like the fresh mango juice. It is not the fresh juice but, It is the flavoured drink. This drink is very tasty and very good. This drink …
Tesco Finest Wexford Cheddar and Oregano Roll
I tried this roll, bought from Tesco’s instore bakery section, and it is absolutely beautiful. I could never give up carbs as I love bread too much and I like trying out different kinds. In the instore bakery at Tesco you can just buy rolls individually so …
Izze Juice Beverage in Sparkling Grapefruit
This is a drink that I enjoy having once in a while, and I really should drink it more often, because it contains 70% pure fruit juice. It is basically like a grapefruit cocktail, because it is grapefruit juice (along with apple, orange, and other juices) combined with sparkling …
Create-a-treat Deluxe Haunted Halloween Gingerbread House kit

Gold Rush Kettle Korn
I have never been a huge fan on popcorn, I must admit. But, when my favorite local grocery store began selling Gold Rush Kettle Korn, I figured that I would try it. Never in my life have I tasted anything so sweet yet salty, and crunchy. …
Nestle Pure Life Natural Spring Water
Usually our family buys the inexpensive, store brand bottles of water, so it was a treat when we splurged and got a case of Nestle Pure Life Natural Spring water. For $4.99, we got a case of 24 bottles. A little steep compared to other brands, but well …
The Prepared Pantry Pure White Chocolate Chips
I am a major white chocolate lover but I have a hard time getting white chocolate for baking where I live except in this one candy store in a particular mall. I had signed up for a newsletter from The Prepared Pantry which sells a variety of baking ingredients, …

In my home my husband and my children and also my father and my mother, brother all of us are the fans of the American sweet corn. We love to have it either boiled or also with some added spices. Actually the sweet corn itself itself is …
Samosa Noodle Rolls
Samosa Noodle Rolls is quite a weird side-dish, if you look at it closely. However, the taste is quite nice and mix in some ketchup sauce and you are ready to dip in nicely.
To make this, you need some basic stuffs only and not that hard. …
Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets
Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets were always my favorite out of the whole Tastykake line of baked goodies. I have eaten the peanut butter Kandy Kakes and the chocolate cup cakes, but I think there is something about the Butterscotch Krimpets that makes them the best. I love the flavor of …
Little Debbie Fudge Rounds
Although I am not overly crazy about these Little Debbie Fudge Rounds, I nonetheless purchase them from time to time. The fudge flavor is a little on the dull side, but the flavor that is there, I do like. If the fudge flavor was a little richer, I certainly …
Dunkin Donuts lattes
Dunkin Donuts now offers a more gourmet coffee for those of us, like me, who need that extra shot or two of espresso in with their already turbo caffinated coffee! I was absolutely dying to try one of their lates, and I finally got the chance earlier today. …
Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake
The Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake is something that I found to be mildly satisfying. The reason I use the word mild is simply because I feel this cake could have been better, but I cannot say I was overly disappointed in because I did enjoy it. …
Presidents Choice organics fruit snacks for toddlers
One of the best things about being a mom is seeing the joy and excitement on your new baby’s face when they recognize a package or know you are going to give them a treat! Sometimes it is hard to decide what to give, and what kind of …
Birds eye Fish Finger
I’ve bought this Birds eye with omega 3 fish finger for the main reason which is for my fussy toddler. Since he wanted to eat by himself so I’ve resorted into buying him finger foods rather than the ones in the jar because he tends to play with …
Willy Wonka SweeTarts Candy
How I got interested in Sweetarts was that when I was little, on Christmas day at my cousin’s house, there used to be a large red sock hanging on the bottom of the stairs filled with candy. Some of that candy was a brand of candy I loved that …
Stofers Lasagna Italiano
The Stofers Lasagna Italiano is a frozen food dish that is available in your local freezer at any supermarket and if you have never had it I believe that you should avoid it. This is a new version of Lasagna which has three different kinds of cheese and to …
Arby’s
Aside from seafood my favorite food would have to be roast beef, and that is mainly one reason why I like eating at Arby’s. I can go there and expect to eat quality roast beef sandwiches for a very reasonable price. The horse radish sauce they include with the …
Chocolate South Beach Diet Bars
The chocolate South Beach Diet Bars have a very strong flavor to them. I was actually surprised at how overwhelming the chocolate flavor was in the bars. I am a big fan of chocolate but I thought that the flavor in the Chocolate South Beach Diet Bars …
Giada De Laurentis for Target Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto
Giada De Laurentis is one of my favorite Food Network stars, so I was really excited to try out her line of sauces and oils at Target. While I am a big fan of most of them, this sun-dried tomato pesto is definitely not one I will be buying …
Tim Tams chocolate cookies
I first discovered Tim Tams from Youtube.com, believe it or not. One of the people I subscribe to is an Australian girl that puts together some very creative and funny videos, even if her topics tend to be very random. She kept talking about something called Tim Tams and …
Maggi Tangy Tomato Vegetable Soup
Our family usualy dines out on special occassions. As it is common with everyone, we always start with soup and our first choice is tomato soup. During one of those dinners, we gave tomato soup for taste to my 3 year old daughter. She liked it very …
Virgil’s Root Beer
If you like root beer, and have developed a taste for more nuanced brews, you will love Virgil’s. It generally comes in four-packs and isn’t the cheapest option around, but it has a pretty interesting composition that makes for very enjoyable drinking.
Unlike your standard mass-produced A&W, Barq’s, etc., …
Lipton Ice Tea Green Tea Apple
In the recent heat wave, hydrating was of primary importance and purchasing cold beverages turned to be one of the most important household purchases. I personally spent quite a lot on drinks, and imagine that millions of people must have done the same; this made choosing the right drink …
