Grand’s Flaky Layer biscuits
I am not your typical biscuit person. Being from the north originally, I usually prefer bagels because I like the chewy, bready consistency. But on occasion I get the taste for biscuits. Here’s the problem with most biscuits though. If they’re not prepared …
El Monterey Burritos
Product Description: Frozen burritos available in most grocery stores for around $4 (for a 6 pack). They come in a couple different varieties and my wife and I purchased both the beef and bean and the bean and cheese varieties.
What I liked about this product: They are very easy …
Ersao Taiwanese Cafe
Ersao started as a food stall which serves pearl shakes and snacks such as spicy chicken/squid. Now, it has expanded into serving other food stuffs such as noodles, dumplings, and other Taiwanese fares. However, it is still really more known as a drinks place rather than a …
Haagen-Dazs Mango Sorbet
I love sorbet. It’s one of my favorites. I think I like it because it tends to offer intense flavors that I find really enjoyable. I like to eat them all by themselves or alongside other items. When it comes to fruits, mango is also one of my favorites …
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 …
Nestea Iced Tea
Having a lunch with cold drinks is an ideal lunch. We usually enjoy the food with a refresher on the side. It is juice, soft drinks and iced tea or normally cold water. My family changes from these three above from time to time. Our lunch cannot be complete …
Mc Cormick Chicken Gravy
I always wonder how Fast food chains such as Jollibee and Mc Donald’s make such wonderful and very tasty chicken gravy to the point that I want to deep my finger in it and lick my finger afterwards.
And because my two kids also want chicken gravy too …
Cream Pure Cornstarch
Another kitchen wonder you will often see in most kitchens today is cornstarch. It is mainly used to thicken sauces and gravies. I have tried this Cream Pure Cornstarch once and from then on, continued buying the product. It is in a box (200grams) which costs …
Becel Brand Margarine
Since the day my doctor advised me to keep my blood pressure under control, I stopped taking rich and fatty foods. I used to take a lot of butter with toast at breakfast time too.
I changed to margarines then , different brands. The one brand I am a …
Wal-Mart Bag of Wild Salmon Fillets
The Wal-Mart bag of wild Salmon fillets is a bag of cut up and filleted salmon; they are individually packaged and come four to five in a bag. I had only had Salmon once in my life, but based on my previous experience with the Wal-Mart bag of Tilapia …
Annies Homegrown Gluten Free Rice Pasta and Cheddar
Being on a gluten free diet is horrible, but I have to be on one because I am highly allergic to gluten. One of the foods I have been craving on a gluten free diet is macaroni and cheese. However, I cannot just have any kind of macaroni and …
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 …
Starbucks Double Shot Energy Drinks
As a barista, I am always out and about looking to expand my taste horizons when it comes to coffee and espresso in general. After all, how can I expect to recommend different products to customers if I haven’t sampled everything on the market? This product; however, fell into …
hint - Tropical Punch
Tropical Punch is a flavored water drink from hint and it is one that I do not particularly care for. The reason I was not really satisfied with this flavored water is because I did not care for the tropical fruit flavors that were infused with the water. I …
Pam Panorama Mushroom cream
I really like mushroom soup although I don’t like mushrooms. I used to buy one mushroom soup which I really adored but I can’t find it any more so I am buying different mushroom soups now to see which one I like the best. The other day I went …
Haywards 2000 H2K Premium Strong Beer
Once every week we get to drink beer as we include it in our dinner. I do drink often times but mostly on special occasions and I only drink light on beers and cocktail drinks. I do like Haywards 2000 Beer as my second choice of beer in India.
It …
Little Debbie Lemon Muffins
Little Debbie Lemon Muffins are not all that incredible in my opinion. Although I do like the flavor of lemon, I am not crazy about it like I am with certain other flavors. Perhaps that is the reason why I did not find these muffins to be outrageously delicious. …
Mandarin and peach tea with Echinacea, Cedevita
I don’t like Cedevita teas because they aren’t very strong. I mean, you have to put 2 bags 2-3dl cup if you want to feel the taste.
I like mandarin a lot and I like peach too so when I saw this tea in the store I decided to buy …
Publix soft drinks (sodas)
If you like to drink soda, you know how expensive carbonated soft drinks can be, especially if you are buying name brand products. One of the best ways to beat the high cost of these beverages is to buy Publix soft drinks. I have been buying them …
Frooti Cool Mango Juice in Tetra Pack
Frooti Juice in Cool Mango is one of my favorite tetra pack juice drink which is so handy to carry along when I do travel. It is a refreshing drink which is good to combine with my favorite snack when I travel via bus or train.
I appreciate the taste …
Food Lion Creamy Peanut Butter
Peanut butter is one of the items that I keep in my kitchen cupboard at all times. I never get tired of eating peanut butter sandwiches or peanut butter and crackers. I also like eating a spoonful in the morning, because it gives me just enough energy …
Pasta Roni Shells and White Cheddar
I do not think I have ever tasted worse macaroni and cheese than the boxed Pasta Roni Shells and White Cheddar. This stuff is positively terrible in both taste and texture. Let me first start with the texture because that is something that really made me just want to …
Betty Crocker Super Moist Cake Mix: Butter Pecan
I’ve always liked baking for as long as I can remember. Sometimes I bake from scratch from family recipes, and other days I have to take a short cut, when I am short on time. I like to turn to the Betty Crocker Super Moist Cake Mixes. Not only …
Virgie’s Caramel Tarts
Whenever my family goes to the province they always bring back lots of snacks like mango tarts, sans rivals, egg tarts, and caramel tarts. My favorite provincial caramel tarts are the ones from Virgie’s from Bacolod City and they are very tasty and very affordable. They come in a …
Rellenong Bangus
Lately we had a lot of bangus (milkfish) in our house. There are some nice people that keep on selling these bangus on a cheap deal. The bangus sold are even big, just that it isn’t that tasty. For the past few weeks, we didn’t eat anything except dishes …
Villiger Cigars
“ A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke,” wrote Rudyard Kipling. Clearly, he knew his cigars, though one wonders about whether he knew women! However, this does raise the question of what constitutes a good cigar. The archetype, of course, is the Cuban …
Solen Triplex
This wafer with milk and Cocoa cream and Hazelnut ingredients was kind a calling me from the shelf so I had to buy it. When I was smaller my father used to buy me a similar product which I really adored but I can’t find it anywhere any more …
Kraft Macaroni and Cheese
One of my absolute favorite foods is macaroni and cheese. This is one food that I could never get sick of. Possibly the most well-known boxed macaroni and cheese is made by Kraft. Probably more people by this type than any of the generic types of …
Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Hot Cereal
Losing weight is one of my goal for this year. I am trying to hate unhealthy foods that I usually can’t afford to miss eating. I’m trying hard to lose weight to gain more confidence and as well as to stay fit and healthy doing all my daily routine. …
Cerelac Mied Fruits With Soya
My daughter started eating solid foods when she was five months old. Hers first food was Cerelac and one of her favorite flavor is Mixed Fruits with Soya. I wonder why she likes it so much because it taste a little bland compared to Banana, Rice and Soya which …
Eggo Waffles Cinnamon Toast Family Pack 24 Sets of 4 Waffles
My kids love waffles. I’m not always sure it is the waffles so much as the syrup, but with Eggo waffles, we can’t seem to go wrong. I do know for certain that the Cinnamon Toast waffles we tried recently were a bit hit in our household, because neither …
DRINK DIET LIPTON GREEN TEA, FLAVORED FOR ANTIOXIDENTS!
I am always thirsty. I drink quality drinks that give my body a boost in the health department, and I don’t spend a fortune doing it.
This week, I discovered, for the first time, the great taste of mixed berry Diet Green Tea made by the Lipton Tea Company! It …
Stouffer’s Southwest-Style Chicken Panini
Stouffer’s Southwest-Style Chicken Panini is a variation on the Grilled Chicken Italian Panini with a few differences. I really like both sandwiches, actually, and I feel that each one offers up a very enjoyable eating experience that I look forward to at lunch time. As for this particular sandwich, …
Dole Cherry Mixed Fruit
I love my fruits and veggies and try to incorporate them into my daily life. Sometimes it’s as easy as grabbing a apple or banana. Sometimes it’s easy for me to pack chopped carrots and celery. Although like with anything else I like to mix it up, and …
Weight Watchers Cappuccino Cream Melts
I personally have not found many Weight Watchers brand snack items that I have enjoyed. To my delight, I have discovered a “favorite” in the new 2009 Cappuccino Cream Melts!
When I first tried one of the candies, it was 2:00 p.m. and I felt like I was on …
KRAFT Pizza
I don’t like thin crust pizzaz, so when I saw something called Naturally Rising Pizza at our grocery store, I immediately wanted to check it out. “Naturally Rising” promised good, soft, “bready” crust. It is a KRAFT product, and there were several varieties of it available. The one I …
Optimum Nutrition Performaxx Multivitamin
I’m a professional sprinter, and I honestly don’t know if I could survive without this multivitamin. I train 3 times a day, 4 days a week, which takes it toll. I needed something that would replenish my body and help me recover as quickly as possible. After doing a …
Stouffer’s Meat Lasagna
I was looking for a quick lunch Saturday afternoon and ended up running up the street to Walgreens to purchase a single-serve sized Stouffer’s Meat Lasagna. I have had these in the past and, for the most part, will confess I’m getting a
bit burned out on them. But, they do …
Seleco Big Bite Roasted Crispy Seaweed Topped with Crispy Fish
Just today, my grandmother gave all of us (her grandchildren) some 65-gram packs of Seleco Roasted Crispy Seaweed topped with Crispy Fish. I am normally not a fan of seaweed snacks especially non-wasabi flavored ones, but this one is really, really good and is one of the best …
Thorntons Dark Chocolate Secret Centre Mousse
I do like sweet things and although I do have the odd Cake, it is more a Chocolate bar or something like that that I prefer. I do look at the Chiller bit in my local Shop and buy the odd Cake and treat like this.
I got a 2 …
Kashi Organic Promise Simply Maize Cereal
Kashi is one of those brands that I have come to love in recent years. They have almost always managed to impress me with their quality products. In this case I decided to try their cereal from their organic line called Simply Maize.
Simply Maize is what I would …
Starbucks Java Chip Ice Cream
I originally purchased this ice cream because I had a coupon to get a quart of it for free. Wow, its a pretty tasty ice cream. What it is, is coffee flavored ice cream, with chocolate chips in it.
Imagine having a sweet coffee, and a chocolate bar at the …
Coca-cola
Coca-cola is one of the most famous brands in the world, thanks to mass-advertising. Just about anywhere in the world you go, you can find something Coca-cola related. However, just because it’s famous, is Coca-cola really the best cola brand in the world?
My answer is no. The price already …
Oreida Sweet Potato Fries
My wife recently purchased a bag of Oreida Sweet Potato fries because she thought they looked interesting and would be something different for our family.
When I saw these, I wasn’t overly impressed with them. I have never liked sweet potatoes and was afraid they would be one of those …
Tesco Strawberry Crisp Cereal
Wishing to try a new type of cereal, I browsed the shelves of our local supermarket, and this one jumped out at me because of its packaging. It’s in a nice, cream coloured box with a photo of a bowl of strawberry crisp cereal, and along the top …
Healthy Ones Cooked Ham
A while back, I decided to give Healthy Ones Cooked Ham a try. The package says it’s 97% fat free and it boasts the symbol of the American Heart Association. I’m not a dieter, though I should be, and I’m very finicky about what foods I eat. …
Alpro Hazelnut Original
You don’t have to be vegan to love plant-based milk. I love eating oatmeal for breakfast, but I absolutely hate the oatmeal made with milk. The water-based oatmeal also gets boring sometimes and you want something creamier, so that’s when vegan milk comes in handy. Almond milk seems to be …
Arizona Ice Tea
Arizona Ice tea is the cheapest ice tea that I have ever come across. It is also the best for the small amount that you pay for. If only the other brands sold their drinks for 99 cents. They would get a lot more sales if they did.
You can …
Tontino’s Pizza Rolls
Totino’s Pizza Rolls from Pillsbury are a fantastic way to snack. And they’re pretty filling just by themselves. I love the pepperoni in them, it reminds me of those odd shaped pizzas you’d get in the school lunch room.
I’m a fan of anything in the freeze aisle at the …
Pillsbury Original Crescent
Let’s face it, when it comes to breakfast pastries the crescent has it in the bag. There is just something about how flimsy it is and the flakiness you get when you break it in half. Pillsbury is the only brand I’ll buy when it comes to crescents and …
