Nagaraya
Nagaraya is the original Cracker nuts introduced here in the Philippines. It is manufactured and distributed by the Food Industries Inc in manila. This cracker nut is really tasty and flavorful. It is crunchy with fresh peanuts in it. The peanuts sometimes do have a bad nut, but then …
Lindsay Garden Black Tea
When it comes to tea, Lindsay Garden Black Tea is proof that you should only buy more conventional brands like Red Rose and Lipton. I purchased a box of Lindsay Garden on a whim for $1.00, and I got 100 tea bags. That ratio should have been …
Mini Nips of JacknJill (Milk choco) Candy coated chocolate
I really like the Mini Nips of JacknJill (Milk choco) Candy coated chocolate. It gives a good taste for me.
I eat Mini Nips of JacknJill (Milk Choco) Candy coated chocolate when I am using my computer. It is good for me if I want something to put inside my …
Tesco Value Mallow Teacakes
These little mallow teacakes make a nice sweet snack and for an incredibly cheap price. These are from the ‘Tesco Value’ range which can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to quality, but these tea cakes are a definite hit, and for only 39 pence …
Dunkin Donuts lattes
Dunkin Donuts now offers a more gourmet coffee for those of us, like me, who need that extra shot or two of espresso in with their already turbo caffinated coffee! I was absolutely dying to try one of their lates, and I finally got the chance earlier today. …
Hostess Green Lantern GloBalls
Hostess Green Lantern GloBalls are really, really sweet! This is perhaps one of the sweetest and most sugary snacks that Hostess has ever come up with. There’s marshmallow, there’s coconut, there’s a rich and creamy center and there’s chocolate too. This is one snack cake that is absolutely loaded, …
Breakfast Best Homestyle Waffles
I was very pleasantly surprised with the the quality of these low priced waffles. Breakfast Best Homestyle Waffles are carried by ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and twenty nine cents. For that price, ten waffles come in a box. That’s really quite a value, and what makes …
Sweet Shoppe Spearmint Leaves 225g
I would recommend the Sweet Shoppe Spearmint Leaves to everyone. I sure had a great time eating them, and a pack of 225g sure lasted a long time. These are candies with a twist, they sure keep my breath fresh.
I just love sinking my teeth in these …
Heinz Chili Style pinto and red kidney beans
We often make chili in our crockpot, and we used to just use plain beans with ground beef and other chili ingredients. However, these chili style beans are great - they add a lot of flavour and make the chili seem more like a chili without any effort. They …
Pizza Hut Chicken Alfredo
I mentioned in another review that I ordered pasta from Pizza Hut this past weekend. Along with lasagna, I ended up purchasing some of their chicken Alfredo (they had a 2-for-one sale going on).
I wasn’t a huge fan of their lasagna (which is normally my favorite food), but this …
Talus Collection Pinot Noir
This 2004 California wine really packs a punch! This Pinot Noir is not bitter to the taste, but has a very high alcohol content for a red wine (13.5%). I suppose that is why it’s cheaper. At any rate, the wine has a sweet but woody …
Quaker Good Start Oat Dairy Drink Banana Creme 280ml
Today I tried a new cereal drink and it is called Quaker Good Start Oat Dairy Drink. You got it tight! It is healthy oat in a drink, and it is very delicious because I got the Banana Creme flavor. This drink costs 28 pesos and it is available …
Tostitos Creamy Spinach Dip
During one of our house parties my mom and I really had a hard time deciding what to serve our guests. The guests were mostly in their 20s and they wanted to drink alcohol after eating dinner. We served them some fried chicken, pasta and some pizza but we …
Big Butt Doppelbock by Leinenkugel
Yes, it is true I like Big Butt’s. Well, at least I like Leinenkugel’s Big Butt. This is a great example of a doppelbock style beer made by the Wisconsin microbrewery. As we move from the heavy winter beers towards the lighter beers of spring, doppelbock style beers will …
Tostino’s Party Pizzas
When I was in college, I practically lived on Tostino’s frozen party pizzas. They were just the right size for my microwave (yes, I ate them soggy) and were very affordable.
I still purchase this particular brand today; mostly because they do still provide a filling lunch or dinner (and …
MacDonalds Fries
There is no doubt for me that one of the highlights of going to MacDonalds is their fries. I have always loved them and wish they could be readily available at home. I understand that this would probably turn me into a very overweight being, but they are lovely.
It …
Pringles Baked Wheat Stix - snack food
Pringles Baked Wheat Stix - Honey Butter flavoured taste a bit odd, to be honest. Like crackers with butter and honey on them I guess. (Although they are sticks, obviously). There’s a satisfying crunch to them and enough in the package to share with another person and still feel …
Sunflower - Chinese takeaway and delivery service
The Sunflower Chinese takeaway in Kempston, Bedford, UK is a place always near the top of my list if I would like to enjoy Chinese in the comfort of my own home.
I discovered this takeaway when I started living in Kempston. Not many Chinese takeaways deliver in Bedford, but …
Uncle Ben’s Bistro Express Indian Style Curry with Basmati Rice
I am a huge rice fan, and in the past I have bought many Uncle Ben’s products, including rice ones. Recently on the television I kept seeing the commercials for the Bistro Express Indian Style Curry with Basmati Rice and I have to admit it looked really tempting. The …
Mango frooti
Mango frooti is the very good drink from the Nesle Company. It is the drink which tastes exactly like the fresh mango juice. It is not the fresh juice but, It is the flavoured drink. This drink is very tasty and very good. This drink …
Milk Maid Caramel Candy Corn
Milk Maid Caramel Candy Corn is a very sweet and a real addicting treat that I really like to have around Halloween. One of the reasons I look forward to Halloween is because of all the delicious sweet treats that flood the grocery stores and this is one of …
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix produces some pretty scrumptious lemon bars! The lemon flavor is intensely sweet, terrifically tangy and oh so moist! Each bite I take energies my taste buds and really sets them ablaze. This lemon flavor will definitely not go unnoticed! I also really like how soft …
Kozy Shack Chocolate Pudding
I don’t often buy pre-mixed ready to eat puddings, but I made the exception with Kozy Shack. I was in my local grocery store and came across a cardboard container with four ready mixed, chocolate puddings. The cardboard backing said that these Kozy Shack chocolate puddings only have 60 …
Bachelor’s Wholegrain pasta and sauce flavor
I really love this eating any food from Bachelor’s brand especially my all time favorite which is the pasta and cheese flavor which I usually get whenever I go to the supermarket. I typically get 10 packs of it whenever it is on sale and honestly I don’t …
Bud Light Lime
The other day in the supermarket something caught my eye. In the beer isle I noticed that Anhueser Bush had a new product called Bud Lite Lime. It came in a clear bottle and the label said it had a “lime twist”. I asertained that Anhueser Bush was trying …
Celestial Seasonings Mint Magic Tea
I am an avid tea drinker, in particular mint teas. I drink no less than one large mug every night before bed, and it’s a vital part of my everyday health regimen. But I’m picky about which mint teas taste best; I prefer teas that taste as close to …
Farm Rich Cheese Sticks
Fairly crispy and excessively flavorful essentially describes how I feel about the cheese sticks made by Farm Rich. I have no doubt that these cheese sticks would come out crisper if I were to deep fry them - one of the three means of preparing the cheese sticks according …
Mrs. Freshley’s Cinnamon Cake Donuts
I do not care for Mrs. Freshley’s Cinnamon Cake Donuts as much as I do for the cinnamon mini donuts. I like the cinnamon mini donuts more because they seem to have more cinnamon and also, they are a smaller size, so it is easier for me to take …
Activia
If you watch television, you have seen the commercials about Activia. Bloated, uncomfortable, not so regular? If you answer yes then Activia is for you? Okay so I answered yes, and decided I would give it a try. (The buy one get one free coupon …
Weight Watchers Fresh Meal in Chicken and Mushroom Alfredo
With summer drawing to a close I have been more and more convinced that over the next several months I should begin trying to lose weight for spring. I have read about several weight loss plans and I have narrowed it down to a few that I will …
Zatarain’s New Orleans Style Jambalaya Mix
I love this jambalaya mix because it has the best of Louisiana’s seasonings in one box. It is so easy to prepare and can be done in an instant. All I need to do is add my seafood and sausage and I’m all set. I have a complete meal …
Breyer’s Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream
When I went to the USA for the first time which was years upon years ago. I had encountered a lot of new brands of ice cream. One of them was Breyer’s and even though it was pretty much more expensive than some other also popular brands I …
Green Giant Chopped Spinach
This is a frozen boxed food that doesn’t have any sauce at all. It’s just spinach, plain and simple. While this frozen boxed spinach can’t compare with fresh spinach found in the produce section at supermarkets, it’s not that bad. The spinach in this box isn’t all chopped up …
Florida’s Finest Chocolate Creamy Coconut Patties
Florida’s Finest box of Creamy Coconut patties are a delicious combination of coconut and chocolate in a delicate square patty that is packed with flavor and sold in Florida souvenir shops or even the clothing store Bells. This product sells for a varied price depending on where you purchase …
Bacardi Silver RAZ
Not being a fan of beer, I sometimes buy a case of malt - a sweet beverage some refer to as “beer for ladies.” Recently, I have tried Bacardi Silver RAZ. It is a clear, slightly bubbly drink with the taste of raspberry. A pack of six 12 fl.oz. …
Suddenly Salad Ranch Bacon Pasta Salad
I recently saw the Betty Crocker Suddenly Salad mixes on sale at my grocery store for $1, and I had a coupon that would make them free. Generally I avoid this kind of thing because I can make pasta salad cheaper than what the mixes sell for, but …
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pop Tarts
My aunt is constantly sending care packages filled with goodies. This last package contained a new flavor of Pop Tart I had never heard of before, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. I immediately thought of the cookie dough flavored ice cream and was greatly intrigued by this new pastry. No …
Meijer Birthday Cake Ice Cream
I’m becoming something of a connoisseur of these birthday cake and cake batter ice creams since I’ve tried so many. To date, the one made by regional chain Meijer is the worst that I have tasted.
Like some other birthday cake ice creams, Meijer’s version has a vanilla ice cream …
Marlboro Mediums
From first appearances, a box of Marlboro Mediums looks very similar to Marlboro’s trade mark flavor, Reds. Unfortunately, that’s where the similarities end because unlike Reds, Marlboro Mediums are horrible cigarettes.
Lacking the classic flavor of full flavored Marlboro reds, Mediums were dry. When I say dry, I …
Cheddar Cheese
I am a wife and a mother, so naturally it is my duty to cook the food for my family. Actually cooking is my hobby and I love cooking. I try many kind of new recipes and serve it to my family. But while cooking the …
Bacon Cheddar Ranch Fries from Checkers
I have tried many kinds of French fries from fast food joints, and I don’t think any can really compare to Checkers Bacon Cheddar Ranch French Fries. They are so tasty and cooked fresh right when ordered so that I can enjoy freshly cooked fries fully loaded with a …
Hot Pockets frozen food
Frozen food is a great way to get a meal without having to deal with a lot of hassle. One of the big names in frozen food is “Hot Pockets”. They’re basically mini-sandwich wraps that you microwave for a little over three minutes.
There are a wide variety …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Cheddar Cheese
This variety of Pringles is absolutely terrific if you are a cheddar cheese type of person! I was really surprised by the amount of rich cheddar baked into these crunchy and oil free potato chips! This potato chip will really set one’s taste buds ablaze! I was surprised that …
Hot Pockets
I see them in the frozen section of the grocery store all the time. I have tried them and while they were not bad, I did not want to try another one, ever. My family members love them. What am I talking about? Hot Pockets! When you think about …
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream comes in a one point five quart container for two dollars and forty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. This is an all natural ice cream that’s all good in my book! This ice cream combines two tasty things: chocolate cookies and …
Great Value Pizzas
We decided to watch a movie last night and, because of that, kept dinner simple; frozen pizza. Rather than our normal brand, we ended up eating one of the Great Value Pizzas my wife picked up at Walmart on Saturday.
They weren’t bad but they weren’t great either.
My biggest complaint about …
Jack and Jill Nips Chocolate
Another chocolate that became part of my childhood is Nips. Nips are a chocolate-coated tid bits that are small circles from Jack and Jill. One pack cost PHP 13 for 40g. The color coat varies from different colors like red, blue, and green, yellow, black and white. When you …
Burger King Onion Rings
Lately I’ve been shopping at Dollar Tree Stores here in Grants Pass Oregon. You see, like a lot of Americans I’ve lost my job so I’m trying to stretch what money I have by buying certain products as cheaply as I can.
While in my local Dollar Tree Store …
M&Ms Dark Chocolate
M&Ms has been an institution as far as candy coated chocolates are concerned. Nowadays there are a variety of flavours to choose from. Be it with almonds, peanuts or those weird crispies which I haven’t seen lately.
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that my all time favourite M&Ms …
Highliner Multigrain Tilapia Breaded Filets
I have long been a fan of Highliner fish products but often find they are too pricey for my budget. Recently, my local supermarket had a half off sale so I bough Highliner Multigrain Tilapia Breaded Filets in a 680gram box for $4.99CDN.
I had never eaten Tilapia fish before, …
