Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace
Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace is not so easy to spell, and even harder to say, but the meal certainly is one that I enjoyed! It is somewhat like a pizza, although it lacks cheese and tomato sauce. The crispy crust is wonderfully flaky. It tastes great, too. Then there …
Valley View Garlic Mashed Potatoes
We had steak last night and, to go with it, made some garlic mashed potatoes from the brand Valley View; a brand I believe we ended up buying at our local Aldi store or some other discount grocer.
I have had other products from Valley View with some mixed results …
Tostitos Natural Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips
If you are like us and love to have parties, then having a durable chip and dip is a must. We have tried a variety of different chips to see which our family and guests love the most, but we tend to always come back to the Tostitos Natural …
Great Value Ravioli
I wanted to pick up something cheap for lunch today and, after looking around, decided to spend 80 cents on a can of beef ravioli from the brand Great Value.
Since it was a cheaper brand, I wasn’t expecting a whole lot in terms of quality. But, it ended up …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Parmesan
No other company that manufactures and sells Texas Toast in my area carries anything similar to this flavor of Texas Toast made by Pepperidge Farm. I tried this Texas Toast once and I was real impressed with the flavor of it. This Texas Toast has a parmesan topping that …
Healthy nutritious yoghurt
I buy yoghurt for my health every so often and the other day I purchased Yoptimal immuni+ Yoghurt in Strawberry. Basically I bought it because it was on sale, as I always figured one yoghurt was as good as another, but I did find this yoghurt has some especially …

Circle K’s $.79 Polar Pop
Last summer 2013, Our local Circle K gas station installed a very large selection of fountain pop. Most people will turn their nose up to the thought of fountain pop!! 9 times out of 10 myself included! It’s because usually it has a bit of a stale flat taste …
Café W Cinnamon Crumb Cake
The other day I decided to try one of these Cinnamon Crumb Cakes for a snack. This is also the first time that I had tried a Café W product from Walgreen’s. The snack is actually a muffin, even if the product’s name says “cake”. And like a muffin, …
Tapatio Limon Flavored Potato Chips
I was given the opportunity to try Lay’s Tapatio Limon Flavored Potato Chips one day when I had the craving for something crunchy. At the time I didn’t want to eat any granola, or find any trail mix. Fortunately enough my mom brought home a bag of …
Jell-o Gelatin - Mixed Fruit

Japanese Mochi Crème mochi balls

O’Charley’s Mediterranean Chicken Wrap
Right now, everyone is swarming to O’Charley’s because they are having some great deals. They are offering two selected entrees for $14.99, and the entrée offerings are pretty hearty. I’ve tried about half of them and found them to be very satisfying. Lately, they’re offering three …
Turkey Hill Premium Ice Cream Rocky Road
Turkey Hill brand ice cream is one of the priciest ice cream brands that I’ve come across, right up there with the Blue Bell brand ice cream. Typically, a one point five quart will cost over five dollars, so for that reason, I tend to not purchase it unless …
Kanki Orange Ginger Chicken
I bought this out of the frozen food section last night because I was looking for something new to try. I really enjoyed the meal, however there wasn’t much chicken in it for a meal that has the word chicken in its name. There were probably four small pieces …
Great Value: Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches
Great Value: Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches are alright, although really, it would be nice if the sandwiches offered a richer peanut butter flavor. I feel that the peanut butter flavor came across as being somewhat subdued in flavor and that I found to be disappointing. The chocolate cookies …
Kernel Season’s Popcorn seasoning
Hi, there! I buy soooo many foods that I actually don’t need, but you know, I feel like they actaully speak to me at the store, I’m easily lured by bright and promising packages that I think I might actually have a problem. But one positive thing about that addiction …

Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
For me, Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake is a real seasonal treat! While I’m not a fan of every single Jell-o product on the shelf, as I’ve found the line of products to be hit or miss at times, wondering how the flavor on the packaging could be …
Kraft Velvetta Mexican Mild Cheese

Fox’s Glacier Mints
Fox’s Glacier Mints are one of my favourite brand of mints for several reasons. Firstly, they are a familiar brand that I have known since childhood, which brings back memories of the old tv commercial involving a polar bear. Secondly, I love how they look. Glacier …
Grace Sliced Chicken Bologna
The company “Grace Foods” has been a trusted Jamaican company for a very long time, and one of their products that I like is the Grace Chicken Bologna. I used to take this particular brand of bologna for granted some years ago, until very recently we couldn’t afford to …

Daiya dairy-free provolone style slices
Have you ever wondered what all those substitutes for cheese, meat, poultry, sausage, ice-cream taste like? I’m not vegan and I’m not dairy-free, but I’ve always wondered whether those things taste legit or not. I might not remember what real beef tastes like, but I do know the taste of …
Sunshine Snacks Chee Zees
While I’ve tried to avoid buying snacks like these recently because they are anything but healthy, and I want to keep my weight down, I still find it hard to resist buying cheesy snacks like this once in a while. I’ve found that Chee Zees are neither too cheesy …
Louisiana Hot Sauce
I don’t eat hot sauce all the time, but when I’m in the mood for some, it has to be the best hot sauce. I hate dealing with sauces that put your mouth on fire, that’s why I eat my food topped with Louisiana hot sauce. It is spicy …
Bibica’s ChocoChips
I like the packaging of the Bibica’s ChocoChips. The box is as big as a ream of A4 papers, and the image of chocolate chip cookies really look big and nice.

I didn’t have much of a selection at the store I …
McCormick Imitation Maple Extract
One day I was looking at recipes on the internet and I came across this maple nut cake with maple butter frosting. I was immediately saddened that I could not try this recipe as my country does not yet import the McCormick Imitation Maple Extract that both recipes called …
Wrights Cheese and Onion Pasty
Wright’s Pies are famous in Stoke-on-Trent, with their own chain of shops around the City selling all varieties of pies and pasties. When I was a kid at school we would all go down to the Wright’s Pie shop for our lunch. I do not eat meat …
Fruity Cheerios
Fruity Cheerios are completely fabulous! Not only are they fun to eat just because of their awesome color assortment, but they just have a really wholesome, yet fun taste to them! I find that while they look like small versions of fruit loops, they have far less …
Lean Cuisine Sesame Chicken Frozen Entree
This frozen entrée is a little more indulgent than some of the others offered by Lean Cuisine. But I have to say I love it and it’s one of the ones I always go for in the supermarket when I see it!
It consists of chicken that’s been breaded …

Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup is the only one of the Campbell’s soups (that I can think of, at least) that you are supposed to cook with milk, not milk or water. There is a note on the back of the can, specifically stating so. I normally do …
Country Crock Margarine
Product Description: Tub-sized margarine spread that is available at most grocery stores in the dairy/butter section.

So I’m walking through my local grocery store the other day and what do I happen to see? A great big bag of mini-pretzels (2 and a half pounds worth) for only $3.00. Well, ya know, I’m sold right there. That’s little more than a buck …

Kroger Mac N’ Cheese
