Sprouts Farmers Market Honey Wheat Pretzels
Pretzels seem to be the big thing right now. Just a few days before writing this review, I ran across a bag of soft pretzel rolls in the store, and not to mention I saw the billboard with the advertisement of the fast, food restaurant Wendy’s having a pretzel …
Russell Stover Marshmallow Egg
For holidays, I like to treat myself to items I wouldn’t buy normally. When I see a display at the front of the store, I’ll check it out and see what jumps out at me. One of these items recently was the Russell Stover Marshmallow Egg. …
Sweetfire chicken at Panda Express
Sweetfire chicken is my one of the favorite dishes at Panda Express. I have never thought that pine apple and chicken would make such a wonderful combination. Panda Express has successfully blended the sweet tangy pine apple pieces into chicken and spices to make a juicy mouth watering dish.
As …
Entenmann’s Glazed Pop’ems
I find Entenmann’s Glazed Pop’ems to be a tasty treat to enjoy, although I do not like them quite as much as the chocolate glazed pop-ems because the flavor is not quite as good. These are a little on the bland side since there is no chocolate flavor, and …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice
Minute maid has been around for quite some time. It’s actually a big brand in the States and my dad would actually buy the concentrated type that you put in the freezer.
Just recently though, Minute Maid launched their orange pulpy juice and I was one of the first …
Kashi Honey Wheat Waffles
Kashi Honey Wheat Waffles are a great breakfast whether you are trying to lose weight or not. As easy to make and eat as any other frozen toaster waffles, Kashi waffles have lots of ingredients added to them that make them much more healthy. Like all Kashi …
Bread Talk
This is my favorite bread’s brand; at least this one is so popular in my country. Not only because the bread is so soft and fluff, the taste is really delicious and vary. I started to know about this brand since I moved to live in such a bigger …
Meat Lovers Pizza from Dominos
The Meat Lovers Pizza that arrived from Dominoes wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. I think that I was hoping for a lot more meat, and they just didn’t deliver on that promise. The pizza itself arrived hot and smelling strongly of pizza sauce, but there were not enough …
Kellogg’s Special K Cereal - Fruit & Yogurt
This particular flavor of Special K cereal really does not have, well, flavor, in my opinion. Where exactly is the yogurt and fruit flavor? Did they forget to put it in the box? I had to add my own fresh fruit and have a cup of yogurt just to …
Quaker Oats Original
Crash diets are not always the answer to have a healthier and slim body. At times these lead to ulcers, hyperacidity and other digestive disorders that will bring more harm to our health. If you are searching for something to eat without being starved out, Instant Quaker Oats Original …
GV Hot chocolate
Do you love hot chocolate on a cold winters day? I know when the temperatures begin to fall and I am chilly I enjoy sipping on a creamy and steamy cup of cocoa. I am a cheapskate by nature, and also by circumstance, so naturally when I saw Great Value …
Cadbury Brunch Bar
I have bought the Cadbury’s Brunch Bar quite a few times, usually when I am on the way to work having skipped my breakfast and so I want something at least half-healthy to stop me from passing out before lunchtime. Actually, on those occasions when I have missed …
Captain Crunch Cereal
Captain Crunch Cereal has been around unchanged for several decades. It is easy to see why when you taste it. There are other forms of Captain Crunch (Peanut Butter, Crunch Berries, even a chocolate one now) but the original Captain Crunch cereal, in the red box, remains the best.
Moms …
Wijsman butter
What do you know about Wijsman butter? I have been using this butter for so long already. I normally use it when I make cake or cookies in the house. This butter is not really cheap. I was so surprised yesterday when I saw the price 5 dollar for …
Lucky Me Sotanghon Low Fat
I am a mother of two and I am very particular with my figure. After giving birth of my youngest daughter I gain so much weight and I am having a hard time loosing it again. So I meter my food to take every meal. To loose weight in …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding is a flavor variety that does not appeal to me too much. There is nothing wrong with the pudding itself though - it is just as smooth and creamy as the other pudding varieties, the flavor however is not quite for me. I …
Jack’s Bacon Cheeseburger Frozen Pizza
I was in the mood for a really great, fattening, indulgent pizza. When I found this bacon cheeseburger pizza, I knew it was just what I was craving.
I like pizzas that have lots of toppings and things on them, and I really like innovative kinds of pizzas. So bacon …
Crush Grape Soda
I’ve found it to be one of two things when it comes to flavored sodas- people either love them or they hate them. I happen to be one of those people who loves them, which is why I have chosen to review Crush Grape Soda.
We buy this stuff quite …
Del Monte Chunky Mixed Fruit
When we bought several cans of Del Monte Chunky Mixed Fruit, I thought it was going to be a lot like my favorite Very Cherry Mixed Fruit by the same brand, only in bigger pieces and maybe with less cherries. Indeed, the ingredients are very similar - peach and …
Diet Rite
I love soda. Maybe too much. I really like Coke but, I needed to find something caffeine and sugar free. Also with a lot less calories. I tried Diet Coke but, I just didn’t like it at all. I finally tried Diet Rite. …
Cadbury Fudge
Cadbury’s Fudge is only a little chocolate bar but as the advert says —˜just enough to give your kids a treat’. It is good for adults too and I like to buy a Fudge bar when I want a chocolate snack that is not too filling but just …
Simpsons Syrup Sponge and Custard Pudding
Sponge and custard is a favorite pudding of mine and takes me back to old school days so I picked up this Simpsons Syrup Sponge & Custard from my local bargain supermarket, but it truly was a disappointment. It comes in a can and you cook it in …
Wonder Bread Classic Bread Loaf
Wonder bread is my most favorite brand of sliced bread and I would recommend Wonder bread to anyone. I have been eating Wonder bread for years and I have really enjoyed it. Wonder bread is more expensive than most other bread brands but I certainly believe that …
Reggano Pasta Sauce
I recently had a chance to try this product when we used it as part of dinner last night.
Normally, I am not a big fan of canned or jarred pasta sauces; mostly because the majority of them lack anything in terms of flavor. And, to be perfectly honest, I …
Milford Raspberry and Lemon Tea
In these cold days I like to take nice hot cup of tea. I usually didn’t buy Milford teas because they are more expensive than other ones and also I always buy the same stuff. Last evening I went to shop and I saw that with Milford tea you …
Birdseye Fresh-like Green Beans
We ended up having a leftover turkey dinner last night and, to go with it, my wife made some Birdseye Freshlike brand Green Beans.
Normally, I like frozen vegetables like this particular brand. But, I have to admit, I was somewhat disappointed with them.
First, they just didn’t seem to cook …
Dairy Queen Mango Cheesecake Blizzard
Dairy Queen has always been my favorite stop whenever I crave for ice cream. There are lots of Dairy Queen shops all over the metro and in my case I get to pass by a Dairy Queen store every after each working day. Yes, I get to see a …
Bearbrand Probiotics
Bearbrand probiotic drink is a Nestle product, a food company known for its worldwide popularity in manufacturing milk, cornflakes and baby food products. This is the latest innovation in the food industry aimed to provide a healthier digestion for all consumers.
Since I am a loyal Nestle customer and a …
I Can’t Believe it’s Not Butter margarine
I grew up in Wisconsin. Here, it is state law to serve butter in restaurants unless someone personally requests margarine. So, I’ve always been a bit of a skeptic when it comes to the quality of the latter.
However, my wife, who is from the East Coast, isn’t a big …
Healthy Choice Tomato Basil Penne
I bought this entrée because the description sounded wholesome and fresh —“ nine-grain pasta with tomatoes, onions, basil, and mozzarella cheese flavored with olive oil. The calorie count is very low (under 300) and you get a third of the recommended dietary fiber by eating it. It’s …
Batchelors Classic Vegetable Condensed Soup
I have had some of this Classic Vegetable Condensed Soup from Batchelors for my supper tonight and it was totally delicious. I have had a bit of a craze on vegetable soup lately and this one is particularly tasty, one of the best soups in a can out …
Chicken/Meat Briyani
There are a lot of times that my friends and I would argue on the origins of Briyani. But I don’t really care that much because it is just so tasty and spicy! And there are different ethnic groups making this like their form of nice dish meal …
Diamond Crystal Popcorn and Nut Salt
Although I can’t say much for the butter popcorn topping that this company makes, I can say that they did a superb job with this popcorn salt. What I like about this popcorn salt is that it’s not like regular salt. Regular salt is real small in size and …
Greek Gods Yogurt in Honey Flavor
I really like yogurt and one of my favorite brands has to be nestle. However, I saw this product at Publix and since I had a dollar off coupon for the product I decided to get it. They are a little expensive at about three dollars a …
Dr.Thunder
I love Dr. Thunder for its pleasant, refreshing “almondy” taste, very close to that of Dr. Pepper and for half the price. I buy 2 liter bottles of it at Walmart for only 58 cents a bottle, and sometimes they even lower the price to 50 cents - hard …
Bird’s Eye Voila Garlic Chicken
Some frozen foods are very good and satisfying. Some frozen foods are disgusting. Other frozen foods are in-between: you would eat them again if you had to, but given the choice, no way. Bird’s Eye Voila dinners come in many flavors and textures, and Garlic Chicken sounds pretty good, …
Little ThickBurger w/ Cheese (Hardee’s restaurant)
I have discovered a new respect for Hardee’s restaurants. In addition to having better food than a lot of fast food places. This restaurant brings the food to its patrons as if they were in a sit-down place. I ordered the Little Thickburger which is …
San Souci Special Roasted Peanuts
There is this 82 year old man in San Souci, NC that makes wonderful roasted peanuts. He has been roasting them and salting them for years and years. Finally the year before last he decided to sell some of them and called …
Hungry Man Rotisserie Chicken Frozen Dinner
Product description: Hungry Man frozen dinner containing two pieces of chicken, green beans, potatoes and a brownie. I purchased this for $2.50 at one of our local grocery stores last night.
What I liked about this product: As is the case with the Hungry Man brand in general, the dinner …
Sainsburys Chilli Flavoured Potato Snack
When on the hunt in Sainsburys, one of my favorite snacks is their chilli flavoured potato snack. It’s a large packet of crisps and you will often find them near the curry and Mexican mixes so don’t be fooled into thinking that just because they are crisps they will …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Mozzarella & Monterey Jack Cheese
I must thank Pepperidge Farm for giving me the idea to add mozzarella and Monterey Jack cheese to my Mama Cozzi Texas Toast every now and then, because it’s really deliciously cheesy and it’s Texas Toast with a little bite thanks to the Monterey Jack cheese topping. I add …
Quorn 2 Crispy Fillets (vegetarian roast chicken)
If I fancy a (vegetarian) meat and vegetables type dinner I often look to the Quorn range of meat-substitute dishes and I usually like them. The last two nights I have had one of these crispy fillets - which are like fillets of roast chicken —“ and they …
Blue BunnyDoubles Ice Cream Bar Peanut Butter Cup
Blue BunnyDoubles Ice Cream Bar Peanut Butter Cup is pretty tasty frozen treat to have. This bar combines two flavors and both come across as being represented pretty well. Both the chocolate and the peanut butter are relatively equal in terms of flavor, which is kind of surprising since …
Kellogg’s Fruit Snacks- Mixed Berry
They’re three types of Kellogg fruit snacks that I have seen, none of them taste bad what so ever, but mixed-berry is my least favorite out of the three by far. The other two flavors are great. This has never been one of my favorite kinds.
This is the only …
Chillin Fruit Water (Watermelon)
Years ago, when I was about in first or second form in high school, there was a fruit drink called “Chillin Fruit” that went on the market and became a little popular. They came in some small, cheap plastic bottles and I did not think that the drink itself …
Digiorno Pepperoni Cheese Stuffed Crust Pizza
As a beginner cook (such as myself), preparing meals seven days a week can be a complex task even when I have all of the ingredients for a particular recipe. In order to give myself a day off from the task of cooking, I decided to start a “free …
Entenmann’s Frosted Pop’ems
Entenmann’s Frosted Pop’ems are essentially small and compacted donuts that lack an opening in the center. Only one or two bites are required before these pop’ems are no more. They are quite small and ideal for snacking. Well, they would be ideal if the frosted pop’ems had a better …
Whiteway’s Peardrax
It’s been a long time since I had a drink of Whiteway’s Peardrax. But yesterday while I was out yesterday the sun was extremely hot and I decided to get myself a drink. I choose a small bottle of Whiteway’s Peardrax from the cooling fridge.
As I opened the bottle …
Girl Scout Cookies
There is something about a Girl Scout cookie that I find highly addictive. In all honesty, their cookies are probably one of the few cookies that I will allow myself to indulge in on a yearly basis. Perhaps it is the fact that I can only purchase …
