Mr. Chips by Jack and Jill
Mr. Chips remained true to its promise which was written on the back of its foil package. It said that “You just don’t bite your Mr. Chips chip. You go out and gobble them all up.”
Each bite of a chip makes you feel the cheesy goodness of it. Filled …
Priano Specialty Pasta - Rigatoni

Pringles Potato Crisps - Pizza
This is most certainly not one of Pringles most successful creations, in my opinion. In fact, I would really rate this flavor variety quite low because I did not think of pizza when I tried one of these chips. I know what pizza tastes like because I eat it …
DelGrosso Meat Flavored Spaghetti Sauce
There’s one thing that I really like a lot about DelGrosso Meat Flavored Spaghetti Sauce, but there’s also something that bothers me more than a little about this spaghetti sauce, too. First, what’s quite nice about this spaghetti sauce is its texture. It’s on the thick side. Since the …

Morrisons High Fibre Bran Breakfast Cereal

Red Mango’s Blueberry-Flavored Yogurt

I rarely eat corned beef because they have a taste that is not appealing to me, sometimes I try this canned beef but I end up losing my appetite because most of canned beef in the market today are coarse and dry. I like canned tuna more than corned …
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers are one of those things that I saw and couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen potato chips with a similar flavor, but never crackers. They don’t look all that bad and they actually appear kind of cute, until you read the ingredients and the fine print. …

Odwalla Superfood

Ristora Cappuccino decaf

Koestlin Saltas peanuts

Hong Da Food Blueberry Layer Biscuit
I am disappointed with this product. I expected it to be heavily blueberry-flavored but no, it wasn’t. The cream between the two pieces of biscuit looks like caramel cream. It doesn’t even look like blueberry cream, and the layer of cream is so thin that it was …
Minute Pulpy Orange drink
Minute maid pulpy orange juice has been a comparatively new entry in a market already exploding with beverages, fruit juices, aerated drinks etc. I was looking for a refreshing drink which had no fizz in it; thats when I came across Pulpy Orange. It was featured in the new …
New York Style - Panetini Garlic
New York Style - Panetini Garlic is a type of toasted bread sliced into small pieces that I will not be purchasing again. Unlike the three cheese and Parmesan garlic varieties, this variety is rather bland and unimpressive. The garlic flavoring is just too weak for my taste buds …
Kellogg’s YoGos Variety Pack
I like a YoGo every now and then as I find them to be refreshing and flavorful. The yogurt covering these fruit snacks is soft and does not weigh me down after I have a pouch. The two flavors that come in this variety pack are pretty good, too. …
Borbello 4 Meat Pizza
I wrote before that I tried pizzas from the brand Borbello and liked them. Since they were still on sale, I decided to pick up a couple different varieties to give them a try. Since they didn’t have the Hawaiian pizza my wife wanted to try, I ended up …
Sunbulah Springroll pastry

Aero Instant Bubbly Hot Chocolate Drink
I bought this drink out of curiosity, really. The proclamation of bubbles melting on my tongue enticed me to give Nestle’s latest offering in the heated beverages department a whirl. When boiling water is added, it is true, an impressive crop of bubbles forms, much like when you froth …
Vitaminka chocolate candies with peanut kernel
The other day I went to one very cheap store called Getro. Usually I don’t really like buying stuff at cheap stores, especially not the stuff to eat because you never know if they are going to be good or not. On the shelf with sweet stuff I saw …
Smart Ones - Three Cheese Ziti Marinara

Kohinoor Basmati Rice

The solution is in …
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Miniatures
While I’ve also done a review on the regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, I really wanted to do one on this product as well because as odd as it seems, there’s a bit of a difference between the regular product and this bag of miniatures.
When I was growing up, …
