Sargento - Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
Sargento - Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese is the only type of cheese that I use when I have the time and urge to make a homemade cheesecake. If I do not have the cheese on me at the time, I simply do not make the cheesecake and I only …
Special K Strawberry Protein Shake
Some protein shakes have left me feeling not only hungry after consuming them, but with a nasty taste in my mouth. I was very glad, and a little relieved, that the Special K Strawberry flavored protein shake did neither of those things. It has become the perfect breakfast shake …
Season’s Choice Super Sweet Whole Kernel Corn
Season’s Choice Super Sweet Whole Kernel Corn is a frozen, packaged corn that’s sold at ALDI Food Market stores for just sixty-five cents. For sixty-five cents, a person can purchase a sixteen ounce bag. That’s a very impressive value in my opinion and it beats what other stores sell …
Milo Energy Drink
The Philippines is a tropical country. The weather here is very unpredictable. There are times that during summer, the rain falls heavily. There are also times that a when a typhoon hits the city, the sun shines brightly. That I can say is “only in the Philippines”.
One of …

My favorite raw unfiltered honey to use in my herbal teas and to help sweeten up other taste treats such as corn bread and blueberry muffins is the Swans Maine Beekeeper Raw Unfiltered Wildflower Honey. I love this raw honey because it still has all its potent nutrients in …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones Double Fudge Cake
I am not a huge fan of Weight Watchers pre-packaged foods, but these Double Fudge Cake’s are the exception to the rule. Recently this frozen pre-packaged box of 2 individual cakes was on sale for $1.99CDN at my local grocery store so I bought them.
These cakes are delicious! They …
Grandessa Signature Frozen Fruit Bars Strawberry
Grandessa Signature Frozen Fruit Bars Strawberry aren’t the best. I kind of expected more from the frozen fruit bars because the packaging stated that they were all natural and filled with real strawberries. When I took a bite into one of these frozen fruit bars though, what I got …
Options Cracking Hazlenut Instant Hot Chocolate Drink
I am really not impressed with these Options Instant Hot Chocolate drinks as they all seem to be a bit sickly. If you find one you like, these little sachets of instant hot drink are handy to take to work to make yourself a treat throughout the day, …

As I have already said that most of the or all the products of the company Aro brand are very good in quality and also have a very good taste. I used to use the other branded oil for cooking, before I knew about the Aro refined pamolien …

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 …
White Castle Microwaveable Cheeseburgers
White Castle Microwaveable Cheeseburgers are actually a pretty good tasting quick way of having cheeseburgers for lunch, dinner, or even a snack. They come in packages of six, or some convenience stores have them in packages of two. Even inside the six-pack, they are wrapped in three …
New York Style - Baked Original Bagel ChipMix
New York Style - Baked Original Bagel ChipMix just did not do much for me. Compared to other snack mixes by other companies, where lots of garlic, for example, is used, this snack mix really does not have much to offer a person looking for something to energize his …
Butter Ball Turkey
Like most American families we traditionally purchase a turkey at least once a year. I’m not sure of how we decided but for our family we eat turkey every Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas. We have tried most brands of turkey available in our local supermarket but my personal …
Natures Plus Spirutein Strawberry Shake
Every morning I start my day with a protein energy shake because I have an autoimmune disease that causes lots of fatigue and illness because it makes my immune system and muscles weak. I find drinking a protein energy shake useful to drink daily because it contains loads of …

Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones
I found this Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones to be a satisfactory treat, although admittedly, I did expect more from this ice cream cone. The vanilla ice cream, for one, just was not as good as it normally is. Generally, Blue Bunny has pretty tasty vanilla …
Captain D’s Seafood Scampi Platter
It’s to find a good seafood restaurant that offers fish and shrimp that hasn’t been battered and deep-fried. I’ve been to Red Lobster but some of the seafood dishes can be pretty pricey when your budget is a little tight. Captain D’s was having a sale on …
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer is something I get from time to time, but those are rare times, mostly because it just cost so darn much. This is considered a big time treat for me, and as a result, I really only buy the product once or twice a …
Gerber Graduates Lil Crunchies Mild Cheddar Flavor
These miniature Cheeto-type snacks were my baby’s first finger foods. I was worried at first because of choking issues but that went away fairly quickly. He seemed to really enjoy these and would suck on them at first, until he got the hang of chewing. They resemble short little …
Lean Cuisine Lemon Chicken Frozen Entree
This is a great entrée offered by Lean Cuisine in their Spa Cuisine product line. I really like almost everything I’ve tried from this product line, because the dishes have a certain sophistication that is not often found in frozen meals. They also are fairly unique and not just …
Yoplait
This is by far the grossest yogurt drink ever made which surprises me because yoplait for adults yogurt is delicious and quite healthy. I purchased a 6 pack of this yogurt drink in strawberry flavor because it has Dora the explorer on the bottles, and what kid does …
Grizz White Wine
Grizz White (and its fellow, Grizz Red) are simple Washington state wines that come in a screwtop. Love the convenience, but even more love the yummy wine. Normaly in my house we greatly prefer red, since it doesn’t have that nasty sour tang that we find Chardonnays …

Oreida Sweet Potato Fries

When I saw these, I wasn’t overly impressed with them. I have never liked sweet potatoes and was afraid they would be one of those …
Kroger - Cherry Pie
The cherry pies sold at Kroger found in the bakery section are not that great. Actually, that is quite an understatement. The cherry pie is just downright horrible for the reasons that I am about to cover. Unlike the other pie varieties that I have tried, this is one …
Pop-Tarts Splitz
I am a big fan of Pop-Tarts pastries so I decided to buy the new half chocolate, half strawberry Splitz box. Previously I enjoyed both chocolate and strawberry flavors, but I wondered if it would be a good combination if they were mixed. The pastry itself has chocolate filling …

When Easter-time comes around, I am always happy to see the arrival of Cadbury cream eggs to the stores. These eggs are about 2 inches tall. There is a chocolate shell that surrounds a sweet, sugary center that is supposed to resemble egg yolk. They can …
Wai Loong’s French Fries

I decide that …
Campbell’s Condensed Beef with Vegetables and Barley Soup

IHOP Pancakes
I think IHOP Pancakes are pretty good, these things taste pretty good and they are pretty cheap. I went to IHOP for national pancake day and had some while I was there. So I am going to tell you about them. First of all they smell really good and …
Corazonas Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips
I admit up front that I’m not much of a health-conscious eater. I grew up on junk and processed foods, so most of the ‘good for you’ foods just don’t agree with my taste buds. Last year, though, I became acquainted with the Corazonas brand. It’s …
Milka Alpine Milk Chocolate Extra Cacao
I am a chocolate lover. I do not say no if someone offers me even the sizes is small. One time my sister went home and I saw her cutting into pieces a Milka chocolate. I have to admit this is the first time I tasted chocolate from Milka. …

I love to have a hot chocolate after I have had my daily walk home from work, as I walk almost two dollars in an effort to save as much money as I possibly can for my heating expenses. Asides from that, it is great exercise. Well, anyhow, when I …
Hershey’s Drops - Cookies ‘n’ Creme
Branded as ‘New!’ at the top left of the package, this little bag of sweets called out to me. Being an avid lover of the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme chocolate bars, I felt that anything with, well, cookies and cream, couldn’t go wrong. So I bought it.
On the package …

Dr. Oetker Pizza Ristorante Quattro Formaggi pizza
I do love Dr. Oetker Pizza Ristorante Quattro Formaggi pizza. I have to say that Im something of a pizza fan, to say the least. Other than chocolate, it’s my healthy eating downfall. That being said, it’s sometimes just nice to eat something tasty and forget the waistline. …

Cedarlane Green Chili & Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales
The Cedarlane Green Chili & Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales is a frozen meal that I find somewhat satisfactory, although I was not pleased enough with what this meal had to offer to purchase it again. These tamales suffer from the same problem that the other varieties of tamales suffer …

If you’re looking for a healthy alternative snack you should try Growers’ Nutribar. It was recommended to me by roommate who is into weight lifting. It looks like an energy bar but cheaper. A bar costs 14 Philippine Pesos (about 28 US cents) and box of six costs 80 …

Camel Turkish Jade 100 Cigarettes
I started smoking the Turkish Jade 100 cigarettes when Camel first released them several years ago. Prior to that I was smoking their regular Jade version, as well as their menthol cigarettes, but none had the taste of these. Though they have a long filter, these are by far …
