Oscar Mayer Deli-Creations - Flatbread Sandwiches
I’ve previously done a review for the Deli-Creations regular sandwiches, which are delicious and wonderful. About the time I was writing it, Oscar Mayer had just come out with another type of their Deli-Creations — flatbreads.
The premise is the same — you have everything you need for a …
Harbor View Snacks Salted Cashew Halves and Pieces (17 oz. tin)
These cashews are a tasty little snack someone bought for me because they knew I love cashews. I had never heard of the Harbor View Snack brand before, so I had no expectations based on brand alone. Inside the peel-away tin, it was brimming with cashew halves …
Filipino Adobo
Rice is the staple food in the Philippines. And what goes perfectly with rice? I’d say adobo. It’s a native Filipino dish which is basically just meat (chicken or pork) cooked to simmer in a mixture of soy sauce and vinegar as well as some seasoning. Preparing it is …
La Croix Sparkling Water
I have consumed sodas most of my life. In an effort to restrict my calorie intake, I switched from sweetened soft drinks to artificially sweetened soft drinks but I reevaluated that decision as I investigated the use of artificial sweeteners. It seems, according to several studies, that artificial sweeteners …
Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop
The Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop is really not that terrific, in my opinion. The reason I am not won over with these bomb pops is because of the flavor. There are supposed to be a multitude of flavors to be found on these bomb pops, but what …
Hunt’s Mushroom Spaghetti Sauce
Hunt’s Mushroom Spaghetti Sauce is not for the mushroom-lover. If you’re someone that enjoys mushrooms in your spaghetti sauce or a mushroom-flavored spaghetti sauce, then you’re in for a mighty big disappointment if you purchase this spaghetti sauce. To me, this spaghetti sauce almost tastes just like the Hunt’s …
Knorr 30 Minute Marinades Sesame Ginger
I tried the Knorr 30 Minute Marinades Yesterday.
I have a package of four flavours but the first one I tried was the Sesame Ginger with Mandarin Orange Juice and I was quite impressed.

Nature’s Path: Flax Plus Red Berry Frozen Waffles
Nature’s Path: Flax Plus Red Berry Frozen Waffles disappointed me quite a bit. The reason I purchased these waffles was because of the raspberry and strawberry flavors. I did not feel that either flavor was represented well and neither did much for me. Oh sure, I could taste some …
Quaker S’mores Chewy Granola Bar
I had always been big on Quaker oatmeal, but I didn’t know about their granola bars until my junior year of high school; I was in color guard and the instructors gave them to us to eat after a parade we participated in. The granola bar I was given …
Fuze drink
One of my favorite things to drink when I am trying to avoid drinking soda is Fuze. Fuze is a fruit drink that is offered in 8 different flavors: tropical punch, strawberry melon, blueberry raspberry, cranberry raspberry, banana coloda, peach mango, strawberry guava, and orange mango. I …
Quizno’s Sandwiches
I had Quizno’s once a few years ago and didn’t much care for it.
I decided to try it again for lunch with a group of friends.
I found the food a bit on the expensive side but the restaurant smelled wonderful and there were many choices.
I chose the mesquite chicken …
Vanilla Soy Milk
My frequent trips to coffee shops have made me a sucker for vanilla soy lattes. Buying themfrom the coffee shop everyday had gotten quite expensive so not too long ago I invested in a espresso machine for my house.
In order to make a vanilla latte I had to purchase …
Granny Goose Chillos

Minute Maid Premium Premium Lemon Juice
I am not a lemon person although I know that it is one of the good sources of vitamin C. I drink calamansi juice whenever I feel like getting sick and it works. However in my country, lemon is not always available typically. We rely more on calamansi (family …

Cadbury Star Bar
Cadbury’s Star Bar is one of my favourite chocolate bars. Before writing this review, I nipped onto Wikipedia to remind myself when they first came out as I have been buying these regularly since the 1980s. Interestingly, it pointed out that this Star Bar only exists because …

I cook all sorts of dishes from European to Asian cuisines. In my home, variety is the key to keep my family interested in coming home to eat their meals at the house and not elsewhere. In addition, as there are not too many reputable restaurants here, dining …
Cracker Jacks - bag version
Crackers Jacks have been around for ages. I grew up enjoying this snack. In recent years, I haven’t purchased it very often, mainly because it’s harder to find at the grocery store. When I have, it’s been the traditional, single serve box that is so familiar to most. …
Homemaker: Premium 100% Pure Florida Squeezed Orange Juice
What an amazing product. I’ve tried other orange juices before and they are just bland. They do not have any taste or they taste artificial. Even if you do find a brand that tastes amazing, it ends up costing you double what it should. Homemaker Florida Squeezed Orange Juice …
Tupelo Pure Raw Honey
I swear I’ve never been truly contented with the honeybeeI tried before until I discovered the Tupelo Honey. I found this in one popular All-Natural Products Health Store near my place. I’ve known the store for selling real all-natural quality products so I never had a second-thought when I …
Buttermilk Eggo Waffles
The buttermilk Eggo waffles are quite good and flavorful and I enjoy having one or two a week. I would have more, but they aren’t all that healthy for a person. There’s fat and cholesterol to be picked up when eating one of these waffles, so there are definitely …
Rollerz NewPark Mall Newark CA
So I stopped by Rollerz at the New Park Mall today to get an Icee drink. I think this place is really cool, they have just about everything at Rollerz. They have ice cream cones, fruit smoothies and my personal favorite Icee’s. Now they prices are kind of expensive …
Safeway White Cake White Iced Slice
I decided to pick up this cake slice because, let’s just face it every once in a while we’re in a cake sort of mood.
I like the idea of buying a small amount of cake. This slice as they call it is actually enough to slice up and feed …

Clover Valley Coffee

Green Giant Broccoli & Cheese Sauce
I’m never quite satisfied when it comes to frozen broccoli. Frozen broccoli just doesn’t have the same freshness and same degree of flavor that fresh broccoli has. That being said, this frozen side from Green Giant isn’t unpalatable, it’s actually fairly decent. The broccoli is decent enough and there’s …
The Snack Factory - Garlic Pretzel Crisps
