Maggi Cuppa Mania Noodles
I am a college student. One of the first words people seem to associate with college students is ramen. However, if happen to be, like me, a vegetarian college student, then you find others have a major advantage on you with their instant noodles. After all, …
Charles Goldfinger
I love sweets and chocolates and when Charles Goldfinger came on the scene quite a few years back I had to try one. Charles Goldfinger is a chocolate bar which has wafers which are filled with a light cocoa cream and then covered in milk chocolate.
Charles Goldfinger only has …
Malteasers
I only have to see a television commercial for Malteasers and I will be craving them until I get myself down to the shop. They consist of little malted honeycomb balls covered in a thick layer of milk chocolate and they are delicious. I love that malted …
Eckrich Hard Salami
I like Eckrich Hard Salami better than regular, I think it has a more distinct taste. This salami works great for sandwiches, or, each piece cut in four, fits nicely on crackers, making a good appetizer (secret tip: put just a little butter in between). I personally prefer using …
Tang Orange Juice
During the hot summer days here in the Philippines, I need to have an alternative refreshment drink other that soda so I decided to buy Tang orange juice. Tang has a lot of flavors like grape, mango and a lot more. I just chose Orange flavor because I really …
Del Monte Ketchup
I always love eating with ketchup to go with my meal especially if the meal is fried or dry. Ketchups always solve the problem and it makes the meal wonderfully tasty. I have read from somewhere that ketchups started as a medicine taken in the early years and it …
Hormel Luncheon Meat
I have stopped buying Spam luncheon meats as they were too salty for my taste, so I tried and bought Hormel luncheon meat for breakfast and snack food because they’re great for making ham and egg sandwiches whether they be on plain bread or wheat bread, and one thing …
Kraft Original Macaroni and Cheese
The original boxed Kraft Original Macaroni and Cheese has been around for many years now, really, before most other boxed macaroni and cheeses were ever conceived. It is still one of the best, although I have had others that have surpassed the quality of this boxed mix. Not many, …
Entenmann’s Cinnamon Swirl Buns
I much prefer the cinnamon swirl buns with raisins compared to Entenmann’s 8 Cinnamon Swirl Buns. The reason for my preference is twofold. First of all, I like raisins, so naturally, I would prefer the variety that actually contains raisins. Second of all, the raisins gave the bun some …
Mascarpone Alte Cime
In my family everybody likes Tiramisu, well everybody except me, so they make it all the time. Unfortunately to make good Tiramisu you need a good Mascarpone and mascarpone is always really expensive, usually 200g costs some 4-5 euros depending on the brand of it.
About a year ago I …

Great Value Twist and Shout Vanilla Sandwich Cookies
The Great Value Twist and Shout Vanilla Sandwich Cookies will look really familiar to anyone that has ever had a vanilla Oreo cookie before. The two different brands of cookies not only look remarkably alike, but also, I can’t much make out any significant difference in taste. The Nabisco …
Pepsi Lime
Pepsi Lime is another combination of citrus & cola taste, somewhat like Pepsi Twist only the lime flavor is a bit more intense. The taste is great, especially on a hot summer day, it is refreshing and thirst-quenching. The bubbly, cooling sensation is very pleasant. Pepsi Lime is sold …
Nescafe 3-in-1 Coffee Intense

Fritos are my favorite chip of any sort. I have loved Fritos since I was a little kid. I remember liking the curly shape and the crunch each chip would make as I munched it up. I also love the salty corn taste that seemed to perfectly …
Hostess Ding Dongs
Hostess Ding Dongs are a whole lot like Hostess Cupcakes. They have a somewhat harder chocolate frosting exterior, a soft chocolate cake interior and have white creme in the middle. There is more creme in Ding Dongs than the cupcakes though, and the Ding Dong itself is a little …

Kopiko Kopiccino Coffee
I always anticipate having a cup of coffee every morning it is because it makes my breakfast complete. It used to be that instant coffee comes in a single flavor until recently. We already had a variety in brown sugar, latte and chocolatte. I want to try instant coffee …
Yellowtail Chardonnay (2003 white wine)
Recently at a wedding I was served what I later found out was Yellowtail brand Chardonnay. When I first sipped it, I thought it was flat champagne (bad comparison) because it had somewhat of a “bite” even though it wasn’t sparkling. The wine wasn’t sweet, but was …
Nestle KitKat chocolate bar
Nestle KitKat is probably one of the few snacks I’ve enjoyed since young. Even till this date, I have KitKat cravings every now and then! KitKat is a waffle bar, coated with milk chocolate. In my opinion, the price of one KitKat bar is reasonably low for such a …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza
One of the truly outstanding values that is available at your Aldi food store is Mama Cozzi’s Pizza. The cost for one of these 16 inch pizzas is about six dollars. You would be hard pressed to find a similar size pizza for that price to be perfectly …
Diet Coke by The Coca-Cola Company
Coca-Cola or Pepsi? Marketing surveys have made this a well-known question. Since I have drunk Diet Coke from a time before I can remember, I choose Coca-Cola. My grandfather used to buy cases of regular Diet Coke and caffeine free Diet Coke and give them out to everyone who …
Arby’s Value Soft Drink
Okay. I have a beef, a big beef, and I regret to say that it has absolutely nothing to do with hamburger, sirloin burgers, or any other food that has anything remotely related to beef. Rather, my beef is with this so called Arby’s Value Soft Drink.
Value? …
Made In Nature Organic Dried Plums, Pitted and Unsulfured
These dried plums are much better than the dried apricots that are also made by the “Made in Nature” company because the quality is consistently good. The plums are always dried thoroughly through, leaving nothing behind but a tasty, chewy plum. It’s wonderful that they’re already pitted, so …

I recently purchased a 12 pack of root beer from our local Save-a-Lot store. It was their store brand Tubz Root Beer.

When you buy this product, you get three bags with some …
Fazer Kismet liquorish candy
Liquorish is the kind of candy I crave once in a while, but it’s actually pretty unique in terms of flavor, there’s absolutely nothing like it out there. It’s a perfect combination of sweet and salty and the texture feels really nice too. It’s pretty chewy, but it’s not as …
Tost K plus bread
This bread comes in a transparent wrapping, the slices are really thin and although the subtitle on the wrapping says bread with prolonged freshness I’d rather call it extra dry bread. There are 20 really dry slices in the wrapping and if you don’t have bread at home and …
Jack in the Box: Sirloin Burger
The new Jack in the Box Sirloin Burger is just great. I had one the other day for lunch and it has got to be one of the best steak burgers I have ever had. It was very good and juicy. The burger was fresh and still warm when …
O’Charley’s Southwestern Chicken Quesadilla
I have tried the chicken quesadilla at every popular sit-in American restaurant. All of them had the same components: flour tortilla, chicken, cheese, and pico de gallo. They may give you lettuce or tomato. There are two things that vary vastly from restaurant to restaurant. …
Ristora Cappuccino decaf
Ristora Cappuccino decaf is actually an instant product for decaffeinated cappuccino flavoured drink. I started buying instant coffee products about 2 or 3 months ago when I noticed that I am drinking too much coffee just because I drink it by myself and I always prepare the full moka …
Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry
I prefer the Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry compared to the Nature’s Path: Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastry. The reason I prefer the non-frosted over the frosted is because the non-frosted variety allows me to better appreciate and enjoy the blueberry flavor. Speaking of the blueberry flavor, I find the …

Kettle Chips: New York Cheddar
Yum yum!! When I don’t want barbeque I so head for New York Cheddar. Most of the time. I love the tangy cheese that tastes like real sharp cheddar instead of the weird cheeselike orange powder one can find elsewhere. The chips are perfectly cooked too …
Hershey’s Take 5
Although I have a major sweet tooth, I love my salty and sweet combination at times. Sometimes I don’t think about the actual combination of the chocolate bar and just try it, cause hey, I’m adventurous.
Well, I actually tasted a Hershey’s Take 5 bar for the first time …
Nestle Coffee Mate
The coffee creamer that everybody knows - it’s Nestle Coffee Mate.

Devils Food Cakes
Devils food cakes have been a favorite of mine ever since I was young. Even now, when I’m not really supposed to have them, I’ll get them occasionally for a treat. I usually get the off brand ones at Dollar General these days, and they taste just …
Bailie Nicol Jarvie Whisky
Many Scotch whiskies have associations with historical characters. Grant’s is a case in point. Others celebrate the land itself with names that echo the unusual names in this small nation: Laphroaig, for instance, or Jura, an island to the west of the mainland of Scotland. The whisky I …
