Primo Hot and Spicy Pasta Sauce
I’ll admit, I used to be a Ragu person. I thought there could be no better pasta sauce in a jar than Ragu (although I did on occasion buy Classico, but it was a tad more expensive).

Meijer Cream of Mushroom Soup

Diet Dr. Pepper
Now, I like Diet Dr. Pepper, but I don’t agree with the commercials that it taste like the original. Or, that it doesn’t taste like a diet drink. I do think it’s the best tasting diet drink I’ve tried. It doesn’t have the bad “sweetener” aftertaste like …

Since 1893, Svenhard’s has been making pastries. Since I was a little girl, my family has been buying their cinnamon rolls. Of course, the price has skyrocketed over the years, so I don’t buy them very much every more. There was a time, though, when my family …
