Growing up, I was never much of a lemonade drinker. It wasn’t …

One-hundred percent fruit juice isn’t always priced at what I consider to be an affordable amount of money. Without sales or coupons, juice that isn’t diluted with water generally runs for over three dollars. It’s for that reason that when I came across the Nature’s Nectar brand of mango …

These apple chips are just the opposite of Green Tree Apple Chips Caramel, and not in a good way! The Green Tree Apple Chips Caramel were pretty bland in flavor, and these apple chips are ridiculously sweet to the point where they were upsetting my stomach. It’s not even …

I use Great Value Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soup mostly for cooking, although it tastes good just as soup as well. Campbell’s is still my favorite though, there is a slight taste difference, and it is less lumpy. But when it comes to casseroles, chicken, and stroganoff, the Great …

I like spicy food, crunchy tacos, and nacho cheese, so I thought I would like Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for sure. Unfortunately, I was wrong. The Volcano Taco was very disappointing, and I’m glad I had the rest of their box meal to fall back on.
I found the …

I was a little disappointed with this Pasta Sides creation. I found the bacon bits to be lacking in flavor and thus they pretty much went unnoticed by me as I ate the macaroni side. The rich and gooey cheese that coated the macaroni pretty much wiped out what …

The photo on the package looked inviting. Lasagna noodles with veggies stuffed in between and a nice-looking red sauce graced the top of the entrée. I had another Kashi frozen dinner before and had enjoyed it, so I was inclined to give the Tuscan Veggie Bake a try.
After having …

I’ve never been the one to remember to drink water or even drink it, just because. So to be fair, I’m fairly dehydrated most of the time. The only time I have drank water, was when I was pregnant, for obvious reasons. But once I had my son, I …

Another Filipino Pastry is the “Pilipit”; Pilipit means Twisted. This pastry is usually sweet and is often expected to be hard; more than crunchy, you have got to have a good strong set of teeth to be able to enjoy this pastry. I missed eating this one, and have …
