Bagel Bites
Many years ago, I tried Bagel Bites and absolutely hated them. They were cheap and they tasted cheap. In the last couple of years, I’ve been curious about them. They’re advertised so often, and I began to wonder if maybe they improved, which wouldn’t be unheard …

Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini
I love hummus, and I decided to try out a new store brand since it was on clearance: Ziyad Brand. I bought the one in the yellow can labeled “Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini,” and I wasn’t expecting too much from clearance hummus in a can. I was pleasantly surprised.
What’s …

Simply Cereal’s Caramel Cereal Bar

Michelina’s Wheels & Cheese
This is a very simple frozen meal, to be sure. I can’t even really say that it’s a meal even because just the amount of pasta that comes in a package isn’t sufficient to fill me up. When I had this frozen meal, I added a salad that I …
Knorr Italian Sides Tomato Parmesan
I didn’t care very much for this Italian Side. The main reason that this Italian Side failed to win me over is because of the tomato sauce. It was pretty bland and thus not satisfying to the taste. The sauce did have some garlic mixed in for seasoning, but …
Tesco 4 Nutty Nougat Caramel Milk Chocolate Bars
I think these are fab little snack bars from Tesco’s own range. I have tried several of their own brand confectionary that are direct rip-offs of well-known brands of chocolate bars, like Mars bar for instance. This one is a carbon-copy of a Snickers bar, although they …
Woody’s Smokehouse No Sugar Added Fig Preserves
On a recent visit, my brother gave me a gift of no sugar added fig preserves made my Woody’s Smokehouse, a company in Centerville, TX which sells to various small retailers. My grandmother made fig preserves when I was a child, and I remember them as gooey and sweet …
Alpen Swiss Style Muesli
I used to like Alpen a lot when I was a kid and it occurred to me recently that I had not had it for years. I must have seen an advert for it as I was developing a craving, so I bought a box for £1.49. …
Spumoni Ice Cream from Edy’s
The Spumoni flavored ice cream from Edy’s brand is a flavor that looks very appealing during advertising, but does not really deliver the sort of kick that I had expected it to. The three flavors in this ice cream sounded as though they would be a delicious explosion of …

Nestle Chocolate Turtle Candies
There is only one word that can sum up my feelings for Nestle Chocolate Turtle candy and that word is love. I absolutely adore these little bite size morsels of goodness. All that these candies consist of is caramel, roasted pecans, and chocolate. Three simple ingredients that make up …
Nabisco Oreo Cookies
Nabisco Oreo Cookies are a tradition. They are awesome cookies for child and adult alike, but when you’re young, these treats are tops. These chocolate sandwich cookies filled with a creamy icing center are pure temptation. Okay, I’m an adult, and I still eat them as …
Chef Boyardee Forkables
OK, I normally don’t mind Chef Boyardee products. They might not always be the best tasting thing around but they still usually have enough flavor to make them an enjoyable lunch.
However, the Chef Boyardee Forkables are one of the few products by this company I can say I absolutely …
Little Debbie Fall Party Cakes - Chocolate
I find these Little Debbie Fall Party Cakes - Chocolate variety treats to be decent, although certainly nothing spectacular. The cake itself is yellow and has a fudge filling within, while the outside features a layer of chocolate and features sprinkles that are orange, yellow and red on top. …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Toasted Almond Fudge
This is not one of my favorite ice cream varieties. Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Toasted Almond Fudge is an ice cream variety that has quite a strong almond flavor mixed in with the creamy chocolate ice cream. I personally prefer the almonds that are mixed with the pistachio …
Charles Peanut Gems
Another guilty pleasure of mine is buying “Charles Peanut Gems” whenever I can find them. These are chocolate covered peanuts that have a candy coating. In a sense they remind me of a cheaper, more Caribbean brand of M&Ms since it have blue, yellow, green brown and red chocolate …

Seattle Cider Co. Dry Hard Cider
Anyone who knows me knows that I don’t like the “girly” drinks, the sweet drinks that have so much sugar in them, you need whiskey as a chaser. This is especially true when it comes to hard cider. Apples are naturally a sweet fruit, and they’re what a lot of …

Peppermints - Milk Chocolate from See’s Candies
Just about my all time favorite treat for decades has been from See’s Candies. It’s their peppermints, primarily the milk chocolate variety. They do have a dark chocolate, but I’ve never been a dark chocolate affectionado, for some reason.
The Milk Chocolate Peppermints really do satisfy me and …

Pampa and Special K Cereal Bars

Marie Callender’s Cheese Chicken White Meat and Broccoli Over Rice
I didn’t discover the Marie Callender’s cheese chicken white meat and Broccoli over rice until I noticed my mom purchasing them. She would go to Publix because they would always have a buy one get one free deal going on. Of course, I had to purchase mine from super …

Gano Excel
Gano excel - the healthy coffee. I was suckered into this pyramid scheme a few years back. It start at over $300 to buy in now they have had a puppy pack almost as long for under $100. Either way it is no where near as successfull as …
Martha White Cotton County Buttermilk Cornbread Mix
Martha White Cotton County Cornbread Buttermilk Cornbread Mix is a great value. I buy a six ounce package of this cornbread mix for only eighty five cents at my local Harvest Foods store. However, this particular store is notorious for their over priced merchandise and I imagine …
Yoplait Original Strawberry Kiwi Yogurt
I was shopping in the dairy selection of my neighborhood Walmart, looking to stock up on yogurt. Usually I go for my favorite most trusted brand, but I’m all for trying new brands when the opportunity shows itself. Given that I’ve indulged in Yoplait in the past, I didn’t …
Keebler’s Chips Deluxe Chocolate Lover’s Cookies
I just recently “discovered” this particular flavor of this brand and I’d have to say, I like it more than other brands of cookies. I used to be a big Chips Ahoy fan but for some reason , they changed the way they make the cookies. Now, when I …
Popsecret Microwave Popcorn
Our family has a very nice popcorn maker that we use a lot, but sometimes we have a habit of getting up in the middle of the night craving popcorn. That is when we use Popsecret Microwave Popcorn.
Popsecret Microwave Popcorn is a great snack. Popcorn is much …
Our Family Enriched White Bread
Since I was picking up lunch meat last night (I found it on sale), I decided I probably should buy a loaf of bread too. We had some bread at home already. But, with sandwiches, we go through it too fast and I didn’t want to risk running out.
Since …

Kroger Bakery - Apple Streusel
The Apple Streusel pie offered only at Kroger and found in the bakery section, is, unfortunately, not quite as good as I had hoped that it would be. The reason I was disappointed with this pie is because it lacked a rich and delicious cinnamon flavor that I could …

Organicville Ketchup
Just last week, when I was having dinner at a friend’s house, I noticed that he had put a bottle of this ketchup, Organicville Ketchup, on the table. I had never seen this kind of ketchup before, although it should not have surprised me that organic ketchup existed. I …
