Teh Tarik
Teh Tarik is a local specialty in my area and some other few parts in Asia. It is actually like a form of tea also, and the taste is very tea; but more stronger with a more mixture of milk and the type of tea brand must be really …

Jollibee has just come up with a new breakfast meal called the Jollibee’s Crispy Bangus. Bangus is a fish also known as milkfish.

Glen Tea
The ancient old Chinese tradition of drinking tea has become an adopted one for me as well as some of my close friends, and the tea of choice is Glen Tea.
I have had and tasted a variety of different tea brands over the years and I have finally settled …
Hormel Italian Style Beef Roast
Quite honestly, I wasn’t sure what I was buying when I purchased Hormel Italian Style Beef Roast recently. I bought it because it’s a quick cook item from Hormel, a company I trust and from who I tend to like their products more often than not. Maybe …
Snyder Barbecue Potato Chips
I am not a huge fan of potato chips. In fact, I only really eat them if I’m having a sandwich or burger. And even then, I prefer kettle chips to regular ones. They are not as salty and have a nice gritty texture that I …
Maggie 2 Minute Masala Noodles
I just discovered something better than cup of noodles or top ramen. I am so excited to share this find with you noodle lovers out there. Now, I don’t know how many of you reading this review have an Indian store near you, but if you do, …
Coffee Roti from Save More Bakeshop
After walking around looking for a working ATM in Riverbanks Mall, I was suddenly seized by a craving for a little carbohydrates. I saw the bakeshop of Save More Supermarket right beside the entrance to the mall, and made a beeline for it. I love roti prata, that Indian/Singaporean …
Chinese Style Maggi Healthy Soups in Oriental Thai Noodles
If you are a home maker like me, you would also like the idea of preparing food fast and easy and for me the soup is the most affordable and yet tasty and delicious thing I can offer whatever time of the day as my hubby don’t mind it …
Van’s Natural Foods 8 Whole Grains Waffles
I didn’t care too much for these waffles. I decided to give them a try because of the heart-healthy whole grains being a major ingredient in these waffles, but what bothered me about them is they tasted saltier than the waffles I’m used to, namely the Kroger Multigrain Waffles. …
Happy Farms Snackin’ Cheese Colby Jack Natural Cheese
Happy Farms Snackin’ Cheese Colby Jack Natural Cheese is sold at ALDI Food Market stores for two dollars and sixty-nine cents per seven point five ounce bag which contains ten individually wrapped pieces. For that amount of cheese, I feel the price is a fair one and I was …
Jack in the Box: Grilled Deli Trio Sandwich
Previously, I’ve reviewed several of Jack in the Box food products, including some of their foods introduced in 2010 such as their grilled sandwiches. This review will cover their Grilled Deli Trio Sandwich, which I’ve eaten a few times now over the last several months.
According to Jack in …
Chapman’s Premium Ice Cream
I usually buy Chapman’s Premium Ice Cream when I’m sad or on special occassions. Well… That isn’t completely true because the quality of this fine brand makes me often ignore my diet or that little voice in my head urging me to throw caution to the wind and please …
Marie Callender’s Original Corn Bread Mix
How I missed corn bread! Growing up, my grandmother was great at making corn bread, and I just loved it. My father made a mean corn bread, too. Actually, so do I, but I just hate the mess anymore. The best corn bread was always …
Kroger Raisin Bran
Kroger Raisin Bran contains just as many raisins and just as many crunchy flakes as the name brand Kellogg’s Raisin Bran, plus, the Kroger store brand variety is sold for a lower price. That is why I purchase the Kroger store brand over the name brand. It is just …

Betty Crocker Mac and Cheese: Original flavor
I’m what you would call a loyal user of the brand of Betty Crocker. Usually I go for the cake mixes and hamburger helper kits but this time around I had the opportunity to their brand of Mac and cheese. I found it interesting that they would have a …
Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup
I find Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup cookies to be somewhat average in terms of flavor. For a dollar eighty-nine, they just aren’t quite worth the money. These peanut butter cookies are not all peanut butter, but rather, there are pockets of peanut butter. …
Arctic Zero Rocky Road Trip Fit Frozen Dessert
So recently I wrote a negative review on the Arctic Zero’s Salted Caramel ice-cream and I was basically saying that Arctic Zero sucks in general. But then I changed my mind, actually, so I’m writing this review to make it up to the brand and say some better things about …
Burger King Original Chicken Sandwich
Burger King Original Chicken Sandwich is one sandwich which is very basic and does not excite me very much. The lettuce quality that I receive is not one thing I am happy about. The amount of mayonnaise often does not have any uniformity. One thing I feel good about …
Swanson Hungry Man Boneless Rib Dinner
Product Description: Frozen dinner from the Swanson Hungry Man line. Dinner consists of two boneless pork ribs in sauce, mashed potatoes, green beans and a brownie. I bought it last night for about $4.

Chillin Fruit Water (Watermelon)
Years ago, when I was about in first or second form in high school, there was a fruit drink called “Chillin Fruit” that went on the market and became a little popular. They came in some small, cheap plastic bottles and I did not think that the drink itself …
Options Outrageous Orange Instant Hot Chocolate Drink
When I was a weight-obsessed teenager, I would often have an Options hot chocolate drink, taking a couple to work to have instead of coffee. I can see why because they are only 33 calories per drink which is nothing. The Options instant hot chocolate drinks are …
Totino’s Classic Pepperoni Pizza
I absolutely love to eat pizza but I don’t always agree with the cost of delivery or frozen pizzas. I picked up a little inexpensive pizza called Totino’s classic pepperoni pizza. It was a frozen pizza and needed to be baked. I looked at the instructions and noticed that …
Yoplait Original Strawberry Kiwi Yogurt
I have been eating yogurt since I was a kid. My mom would stock the fridge with them and I would help eat up the many flavors. She would eat them in exchange of some high calorie breakfast while I would eat them just for the flavors. Now I …
Bugler Tobacco
I started smoking Bugler Tobacco, instead of my regular brand at the time, which was KOOL, simply because it was cheaper ($4.25 as opposed to $6.75) and I needed a break from the menthol. I expected to notice a considerable difference in the taste and the quality of the …
Dillman Farm - All Natural Pumpkin Butter Fruit Spread
Dillman Farm - All Natural Pumpkin Butter Fruit Spread is one of my favorite spreads to have on my bread, biscuits and bagels. It is really delicious! I find the pumpkin flavor to be both rich and real in pumpkin flavor and boy does it ever dominate whatever I …
Yomo Natural White 0.1% fat yogurt
Natural yogurt is something that I really like but I don’t like them when they are too sour and acid. Yesterday I bought Yomo Natural White 0.1% fat. Well, natural yogurts usually don’t have a lot of calories so I really don’t see a reason to make a 0.1% …
Sans Rival
For tourist and travelers like me, going to Dumaguete City is nothing without stopping by and eating at Sans Rival. This is a name quite synonymous to Dumaguete City as if without this pastry shop, dumaguete City ceased to exist in the minds of visitors.
…
Teavana teas: Cacao Mint Black Tea
Recently, I was very fortunate to come across a website which sells a wide range of loose leaf teas: Teavana.com. While I have only known of them for a short amount of time, I have had the pleasure of trying out a particularly pleasing tea of theirs: …
Dare Bear Paws - Chocolate Chip
Although maybe not the best choice for a snack nutrition wise, I love these cookies, and my kids always ask for them when we are at the store.
Price wise they are a fairly good deal, and I can usually get them on sale for less than two dollars. The …
Luigi’s Real Italian Ice Lemon and Strawberry
There are three lemon-flavored and three strawberry-flavored Italian Ice cups that come in a box for two dollars and fifty cents. Thia is a reasonably fair price considering the quality and flavor of the Italian Ice. While neither flavor is particularly super rich, the lemon-flavored cups offer an unmistakable …
Royal Breaded Fish Fillets
We bought this pack of fish fillet because it was offered in the grocery as buy one take one. We grabbed the opportunity to stock one and taste what Royal Breaded Fish fillet has to offer. Seldom do we buy such ready to prepare foods in Hypercity grocery in …
Millefeuille
An awesome dessert that is in my love book of food favorites would be Millefeuille. This is a French dessert and the meaning in English is something like ‘A Thousand Leaves’ or something.
And if you go to any restaurants that are having some form of credibility to …
Nova Multigrain Snack ( Italian Herb Flavor )
I love chips and I love nibbling them while watching DVD movies or TV shows. Why I crave for this is because of the greatness of its taste. But before, potato chips were solely the famous choice. It is high in sodium and bad for the kidneys if we eat …
Mountain Dew - Diet
There are very few products that I really do not like, but Diet Mountain Dew is definitely one of them. I always like to try new products and I am very objective about them, and give them a chance. After 2 sips of Diet Mountain Dew I had to …

Haagen-Dazs Pineapple Coconut Ice Cream
The combination of pineapple and coconut is one of my best-loved combinations. I was so excited to see that Haagen-Dazs made it into an ice cream. In my opinion it’s hard to beat fresh, fruity and slightly sour pineapple mixed with creamy and rich coconut.
This ice cream has a …
Three liter of soda Shoppers value
I usually buy some three liters of soda that are Shoppers value instead of the regular two liters. They are cheaper and you get more soda in them. With all of the necessity items going up in the prices I have to watch how much I spend. So I …
Republic of Tea Blackberry Sage Full Leaf Loose Tea
The Republic of Tea is known for making high-quality teas in a variety of natural flavor combinations. Blackberry Sage is a black tea with layered notes of blackberries and sage leaves. It seems an
unlikely combination of ingredients, but this delicately-flavored, all-natural tea is delightful by itself, in the morning, …
Taco Bell Chicken Soft Taco (Canada)
The Taco Bell chicken soft taco (Canadian version) makes for a nice lunch. It contains seasoned chicken, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and avacado ranch dressing in a white flour tortilla. The flavors are well balanced but maybe a little salty. The avacado ranch dressing is really the star …
Diet Dr. Pepper
Now, I like Diet Dr. Pepper, but I don’t agree with the commercials that it taste like the original. Or, that it doesn’t taste like a diet drink. I do think it’s the best tasting diet drink I’ve tried. It doesn’t have the bad “sweetener” aftertaste like …
Knick Knacks Milk Coated Biscuits
I simply love these fish-shaped milk-coated biscuits called Knick Knacks. This is a very popular snack among kids here in the Philippines. And why not? Moms would always love to give their kids yummy snacks, but of course we want to make sure what they’re eating is healthy… But …
Elmlea Double Cream
I bought some Elmlea Double Cream not really noticing that it was not standard cream, but it was really delicious and fresh so I will make a point of buying this in future. Elmlea is actually a blend of vegetable oils and buttermilk which has the advantages of …

Ordering online was convenient …
Voortman Coconut Cookies
I am not a big fan of using coconut for cooking nor do I like to eat raw coconut as a snack but I love sweets made with toasted dry coconut shreds or bits.
There is just something amazing about the aroma of toasted coconut and the chewy texture and …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Coconut
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Coconut is a pretty flavorful variety that I like to have from time to time. I am not too, too crazy about coconut, but I do like to have it every now and then. When I get a taste for coconut, I generally purchase this …
Jack’s Bacon Cheeseburger Frozen Pizza
