Akins treat endulge: Peanut butter cups
I was given the chance to try Akins treat endulge: peanut butter cups, when I was looking to satisfy my hunger until I could get lunch. I’m not a avid user of Akin products nor I am following their diet. I was given the treat by a friend who …
Magnolia Ice Cream
I don’t know why but for some reason, Magnolia Ice Cream is not as delicious as before. They have developed new flavors and varieties but to compare it with the flavors a decade ago , I can say that ten years ago, the ice cream tasted much better even …
Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Antioxidants Chewy Bars
Any food that has the words fiber and antioxidants in the title is something that I normally would never buy. It is not that I don’t care about nutrition, or that I don’t eat foods with fiber and antioxidants, it is just that I get those ingredients from healthy …
Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix
Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix is not really the best Devil’s Food cake I have ever had, but I would say that for the amount of money I paid for it, it turned out to be worth it. The cake is most definitely moist and unquestionably airy, …
Nestle Coffee Creamer “The Original”
Nestles Coffee Mate Claims to make the perfect cup of coffee, but I would beg to differ! We had run out of regular half and half, and I was desperate for my morning cup of Joe. I looked in my cabinet to see what I could substitute, …
McCormick Chicken Flavored Gravy
I use McCormick Gravy at least twice a month. I prefer the chicken flavored and use it on mashed potatoes. I have tried many different brands of packaged gravy over the years and have never found anything as good as McCormick’s. It is very important when buying packaged gravy …
Jennie-O Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins
One of my very favorite foods is turkey. Growing up and into adulthood, the best I ever had was Butterball, and nothing, but nothing beats a Butterball. However, when you don’t have time to fix a big turkey, I’ve found a really good substitute — Jennie-O’s Boneless …
Amul Dark Chocolate
Its Christmas time and my husband and I decided to buy sweets as gifts to family friends and for our own consumption. It was my first time to buy Amul Dark Chocolate and I can say that I like it. It was not a typical dark chocolate that was …
Sunnyside Vanilla Sandwiches
Sunnyside Farms produces a lot of foods for Bel Air Markets. Sometimes they do well, and sometimes not so well. After purchasing their vanilla sandwiches over many years, I can firmly say that these sandwiches are simply okay.
I purchase Sunnyside Farms vanilla sandwiches because they are economically …
Edy’s Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
This ice cream is very good. The ice cream has a very good minty taste and the mint isn’t too strong. There are a lot of chocolate chips in the ice cream and they blend in nicely and provide a great chocolaty taste. They are great …
Nestle Coco Krunch
As a mom, I want my kids to be healthy and active all the time. I manage to monitor whatever they eat and drink in regular meals and even at snacks time.
They used to like junk foods before and it worried …
Farmstand baby cut carrots
Farmstand baby cut carrots are amazingly fresh even after days of the purchase. They are very clean too. I wash them before using but all time I feel that they do not need any washing at all. I do not remember having got such a feel from any other …
Aquelle Lemon flavored mineral water
I have never really been one to buy bottled water as I believe this to be something of a waste, as I am already paying for water to come out of my taps.
While bottled water has never been on any of my shopping lists, I got to taste some …
Pop Weaver Popcorn
We finally finished up the box of Pop Weaver microwaveable popcorn we bought a couple weeks ago. I’m glad. This will be the last time I buy this brand.
We love popcorn in our house and eat it a couple times each week. But, when it comes to this brand, …
Kanki Orange Ginger Chicken
I bought this out of the frozen food section last night because I was looking for something new to try. I really enjoyed the meal, however there wasn’t much chicken in it for a meal that has the word chicken in its name. There were probably four small pieces …
Vindija Vanilla Milk pudding 125g
I usually prefer chocolate puddings to vanilla ones so I really don’t know why I even bought this vanilla pudding at the first place but I am actually glad I did because it taste fine. I bought one chocolate one from another brand and this Vindija vanilla milk pudding …
Il Gelato di San Crispino
Location: The directive of ‘It’s at the Trevi Fountain’ is only half true. The gelateria is actually hidden down a alley a little further away (Via Veneto direction). They also have no signage at the fountain or anywhere else, even the shop barely acknowledges the name, though this makes …
Maggi Soup It Up Jamaica Cock Soup Mix Pumpkin
Ever since I can remember, I have always had an extreme dislike for soup. I like neither the scent of it nor the texture, but I especially hate the taste, especially when people use soup mixes to cook it. Therefore, even though I did not necessarily love it, I …
Cheesy Bacon Tendercrisp
The Cheesy Bacon Tendercrisp is a new chicken sandwich distributed by Burger King. This sandwich contains crispy breaded chicken, two types of cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, and some kind of sauce on a burger bun. The two different kinds of cheese are american and swiss cheese, at least I …
Blue Bunny Yogurt
Blue Bunny, Lite 85, is my favorite yogurt brand.
It’s Fat Free with no sugar, made with Splenda. And although it’s name says Lite 85, it has only a cool 80 calories! For those who aren’t aware, most women are sensitive to aspartame, the usual sweetener used in …
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffin
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffins turned out to be a disappointment. I thought that perhaps these chocolate chip muffins would be a little more moist than the regular calorie counterpart, but these turned out to be just as dry. I do not like dry muffins because …
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, …
Crystal Cool Cow Chocolate Light Milk
I love Crystal Chocolate Milk, but it’s just not sold as widespread as it used to be when I was child. In fact, I only know of one place where I can buy it now, and that means making a special trip just for it, which I often …
Cryastal Light
I surprised myself recently when I tried a glass of Cryastal Light. It did not taste at all like any kind of diet drink I have ever tasted in the past! It was not only quiet refreshing, but it had tang and zest to it. I …
Marzetti Sesame Ginger Salad Dressing
Every time my husband goes to the grocery store by himself I get scared of what he might bring home with him this time. Granted he usually does pretty well but it’s guaranteed that there will be at least one item that has me raising an eyebrow. Lately he …
Tabasco Brand Hot Sauce
If there is something else that I cannot live without, it is hot sauce. I live for it. I love hot sauce. And I normally mix my ketchup with hot sauce. That is why I am reviewing my favourite hot sauce which is Tabasco Brand.
Tabasco sauce is apparently …
Dizon Farms Caesar Salad Kit
Preparing your own caesar salad is as fun as eating it right after. I was able to easily prepare and relish one through Dizon Farms Caesar Salad Kit. Buying separate ingredients is costly and time consuming; Dizon Farms eliminate these troubles. Everything I need is already included in the …
L’oven Fresh Shortbread Cookie Party Tray
The L’oven Fresh Shortbread Cookie Party Tray contains two different kinds of Christmas cookies in a party tray that weighs twenty ounces and sells for four dollars and fifty-nine cents. Quite a few cookies come in the Christmas party tray and although I didn’t actually count them for I …
Tai Hing Black Fungus Mushroom

The black fungus mushroom which is dried …
Tesco Vegetable spring roll
I’ve got this Tesco vegetable spring roll for the first time from Tesco supermarket when I had some visitor coming in the house for a party and since I don’t have much time left to do make a home made spring roll since I’ve been so busy cleaning the …
Wendy’s - Grilled Chicken Go Wrap
Wendy’s - Grilled Chicken Go Wrap is a wrap that I tried once to see if perhaps I would like it enough to alternate between this wrap and the Homestyle Chicken Wrap, since this wrap is a little healthier than the Homestyle wrap, but I just did not care …
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks sell for two dollars and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Five cheesy breadsticks come in a box. Breadsticks that are filled with cheese aren’t cheap, regardless of what store I go to, but the Cooper’s brand found at ALDI Food Markets is about the …
Trader Joe’s Milk Chocolate Crisps
I bought these chocolate yummies a few days ago from Trader Joes. They were around 3 dollars and have 36 in the container. It sounds a bit pricey, but for the quality and taste, its pretty good. The crisps are shaped like Pringles chips and are made with Belgian …
Triscuit Original

Shed’s Spread:
I never really liked butter, but that changed once I tried Country Crock’s Shedd Spread. There’s nothing more delicious then Shed’s Spread on some bread. Shed’s Spread is made from Country Crock and is very delicious. It is very easy to spread and tastes delicious. Shed’s Spread can …

Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Milk Drink
Product Description: A delicious and refreshing dairy substitute drink.

Aunt Jemima - Blueberry Waffles
Aunt Jemima - Blueberry Waffles proved to be just as disappointing as the blueberry pancakes, also made by Aunt Jemima, although unlike the blueberry pancakes, at least these waffles do not suffer from the same problems that frozen pancakes do: namely falling apart easily. The only reason I decided …
Cadbury’s Fingers chocolate biscuits
I will be quite honest here and admit that I eat a good deal more Cadbury’s Fingers than I really should, because they are just so tasty! That comment could apply to a lot of chocolate products, in particular those from Cadbury, but these more than most. I discovered …
Tesco Bakery Wholemeal Sliced Bread
This wholemeal sliced bread is a small, 400g loaf from the in-store bakery at Tesco. This is a plain, golden brown wholemeal loaf with no fancy additions such as seeds, but it is very good and tastes nice, not to mention the fact that it contains wholegrain goodness …
Fruit Pastilles
Fruit Pastilles, these were one of my favourite sweets when I was younger, they were so moorish that I could eat a pack in minutes, but I hadn’t had them in ages before a few days ago. To be fair as well, maybe it’s because they are not chocolate, …
Buitoni Three Cheese Tortellini
I didn’t like this form of frozen pasta very much at all. First of all, it’s supposed to contain the flavors of three cheeses: Parmesan, Ricotta and Ramano. I tasted very little cheese whatsoever. In fact, had it not been for the sauce and the cheese that I myself …
Tazo Passion Tea
The other day I purchased some Tazo tea and I thought that it would be worthy of a review. Now I’m a big tea snob, and won’t settle for just any kind of tea. I purchased Tazo’s Passion tea and I was expecting it to be like some other …
Kroger Brand Whole Chicken
I am always looking for cheap ways to feel a family of 5. Of course one of them is a vegetarian so it does not make it easy. I was standing in the meat department trying to find main courses for the other four of us and I made …
Borden brand cheese slices
Borden brand cheese slices comes in twenty-two different varieties. While I have only tried a select few, I can say this cheese really tastes good. Some processed cheese has a rubbery feeling and can leave a bad aftertaste. Not, Borden. This cheese is soft and …
