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 …
Jimmy Dean Breafast Entrees
While shopping last week, I ran across a new Jimmy Dean product called Breakfast Entrees. The one I chose to sample was the scrambled eggs with bacon and cheese, plus diced apples, and seasoned hash browns. They have the exact same combination with sausage instead of bacon, …

Lawlers Lemon Blast Cheesecake
I love cheesecake and I am always looking for a new creation to try, which is how I came across Lawler’s lemon blast cheesecake at my local Sam’s Club.

Hormel Natural Choice Carved Chicken Breast
To be honest, I’m always cautious when it comes to trying new meats. I’m very loyal to products I grew up with, and with all the scares in the news about this and that, I just like to stay with what I know and trust. However, when …
305 Cigarettes
I have recently tried a new brand of cigarettes called 305’s. This is a brand that seems to be a local thing to Florida, since I had never seen them prior to moving down here. 305 cigarettes are manufactured by a company called the Dosal Tobacco Comany from Miami, Florida. …
Chef Boyardee Mini Ravioli
I’m home today because I wasn’t feeling well. As is usually the case when I’m not feeling good, I find myself eating quite a bit (Yes, I know that’s weird, but that’s just the type person I am). One of the things I ended up eating today was mini …
Great Value 8 Enriched Jumbo Hamburger Buns
Although I tend to personally prefer the L’oven Fresh Hamburger Buns for hamburgers, roast beef, chicken patties and so on, there are others in my family that like the Great Value 8 Enriched Jumbo Hamburger Buns because of how big they are. I don’t care for big buns myself …
Tastee’s Chicken Pastrami Sandwich Combo
Today I decided to wait until after all my classes ended so I could have lunch at the fast food restaurant Tastee’s. This is because I have found eating lunch there to be much less expensive than buying lunch at the university.
At first, I decided that I could buy …
Sunkist Solar Fusion
I just tried the new Sunkist Solar Fusion and I am not a fan. This new Sunkist variety which is slightly darker in color, and sports a vibrant yellow, orange and blue swirled label is kinda awful.
I don’t know if you remember tasting liquid medicine …

Dinty Moore Hearty Meals Canned Beef Stew Soup
Beef stew is one of my favorite stews to make because you can never have enough and it always fills me up. Sometimes, I have my lazy days and I’ll skip over making it from scratch and settle for a good can soup version.
I found Dinty Moore hearty meals …
Gerber Graduates lil’ entrees for toddlers
While I avoid the isle in the store with the specialized individual sizes for toddlers I will gladly accept them when someone else buys them for me. I’m afraid they aren’t something that regularly fits into my budget. Recently I was given two for my daughter because a friends …
Eating Right Butternut Squash Ravioli Frozen Dinner
Eating Right is one of my favorite brands of frozen dinners for watching my weight. When I have a week of unhealthy eating habits, I will eat 3 of their meals a day over the weekend, and I usually feel much better and healthier. It is a …
Panera Chipotle Chicken Signature Sandwich
What attracted me to try this sandwich was not the chicken, or the applewood-smoked bacon, or the smoked cheddar, or even Panera’s tomato basil loaf bread. It was the ancho chipotle spread, which is a creamy, spicy and smoky spread that’s supposed to meld the components of the …
Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Powdered Mini Donuts
Unlike the chocolate variety of mini-donuts, Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Powdered Mini Donuts actually have a pretty decent flavor to them and I will say that I enjoyed devouring the six mini-donuts. The powdered sugar provided these donuts with a satisfying flavor that left me with a smile on my …

Harvest Snacks Chill’n Ranch Tortilla Chips
These tortilla chips proved to be a disappointment because they are supposed to be ranch flavored, but I tasted very little ranch on the tortilla chips. I could have almost mistaken the tortilla chips for being plain had the bag not had the word “ranch” on the front. I …
Frito Lay’s Grandma’s Homestyle Oatmeal Raisin
I love oatmeal raisin cookies and was excited to try this one. Frito-Lay’s Grandma’s Homestyle Oatmeal cookie came in a two-piece pack. It looked very tempting on the package that you would really expect something outstanding but I have to say that I was a bit disappointed …

Few months ago, I saw a store having a closing sale. Because I have a tight budget, I decided to visit the place and buy some things that I need at home. True, I was able to buy a lot of products like cosmetics, clothes and health products at …
Ferrato’s Meatballs
I recently purchased a bag of Ferrato’s Meatballs the last time I was at our local Save-a-Lot store so I could use them in my spaghetti later in the week.
I used them last night and was pretty impressed with the overall quality.
The meatballs lacked a bit in terms of …
Fruity Cheerios
Fruity Cheerios are completely fabulous! Not only are they fun to eat just because of their awesome color assortment, but they just have a really wholesome, yet fun taste to them! I find that while they look like small versions of fruit loops, they have far less …
Gorton’s Seafood Company
I’m not a person who eats a ton of fish. It used to be one of my favorite foods but it is so darn expensive when you try to buy it at the store; even fish sticks.
However, my wife and I have been eating it more often now so …
Tetley Pomegranate Green Tea
Tetley has been making teas for years and has gotten on the green tea bandwagon now that it’s known just how good green tea is for you. Tetley has a number of different green tea flavors and recently I bought their new Pomegranate Green Tea.
I have enjoyed Tetley teas …
Breyers Black Raspberry Chocolate
Breyers Black Raspberry Chocolate offers up a truly delicious combination of raspberry and chocolate in an ice cream that is really quite creamy and smooth. Both flavors I found to be represented equally well and boy do they ever compliment each other well! The raspberry and chocolate flavors work …
Selecta Fruit Salad Ice Cream
Another flavor I have tried under Selecta is their Fruit Salad. This is a conventional Filipino dessert. Selecta made it a flavor of its ice cream given the popularity of this food. Last Christmas, I bought half gallon. Together with another flavor, this was the least favorite and it took …

I have been trying out loose tobacco for rolling my own cigarettes. With the economy in shambles, money is very tight for me and I am trying to save as much money as possible. I tried to quit smoking cold turkey, with no luck. I got four free packages …
Oscar Meyer Premium Beef Franks
While I definitely prefer the Oscar Meyer XXL Beef Franks over the Oscar Meyer Premium Beef Franks, these hot dogs are really not at all bad. By no means is this a perfect or near perfect hot dog, but I have definitely had much worse, like Nathan’s brand hot …
Ready Brek Breakfast Cereal
Ready Brek has been one of my favourite cereals since I was a child, especially in Winter. The TV advert would show people with glowing tummies keeping them warm because of the warm Ready Brek inside them and that always appealed to me. This is an oat …
Ribena
On my recent trip to the UK I was introduced to Ribena by my British partner.
When I had told her that I loved black currant flavored teas, her eyes lit up and she said, “You are going to love Ribena then!” Ribena is what they call a “cordial” …
Cadbury Creme Egg
When Easter approaches, there’s just one thing that really stands out. It’s the craving of chocolate lovers everywhere. It’s the epitome of Easter candy. It’s the one must-have chocolaty treat. ‘It’ is Cadbury Creme Eggs.
Cadbury makes good chocolate treats anyway, but during this special season, …

The mechanics are …
Zacky Farms Jumbo Chicken Franks
My husband and I had never purchased any product by Zacky Farms and had pretty much been cutting back on hot dogs, in our quest to eat better. However, sometimes the urge just hits you and you have to have a certain food. When shopping at a …
Starbucks Coffee Jelly
I just came from a very stressful trip just today coming here to the office. I just wish I would be able to forget about how stressed I was, not to mention bringing with me almost 3 kilos of baggage, my laptop included. Luckily I saw a Starbucks coffee …
Kix Cereal
Kix, the cereal that comes in a box the color of happiness is, with a glass of orange juice and a banana, the greatest breakfast made by Man. I say this for many reasons - Kix taste awesome in a humble, unassuming way. They have great crunchy …
Pepperidge Farm Milano Mint Cookies
I first learn about the brand when I first saw the biscuits in a Duty Free shop. Of all the variants that were before me, I chose mint because it was something unconventional and the mixture of dark chocolate and mint gives the best experience for anybody who has a …
Werther’s Originals
I remember the commercials so well. A young boy and his father entering a candy store, and the boy being rewarded with one of Werther’s Originals. It was portrayed as something very special, almost a rite of passage and a bond between parent and child. Yet, …
Baked Chocolate Mousse
I love this dessert, Baked Chocolate Mousse very much. In fact, I do know that it’s fattening but I just can’t help it at most times.
Whenever you go to any cake shop and you could find Baked Chocolate Mousse, there is a high chance that the taste …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream French Vanilla
I really have a hard time deciding whether I like the natural vanilla ice cream more, or the Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream French Vanilla. The reason my choice is a difficult one is because while this ice cream is somewhat creamier than the natural vanilla, the natural vanilla …
Borbello’s Sausage Pizza
Our oldest daughter was over at her grandparents playing yesterday afternoon and our youngest was sleeping so my wife and I decided to watch a movie. Since it was lunchtime, we decided we wanted a pizza to go with it so we made the Borbello’s frozen pizza that was …

Mascarpone Alte Cime
In my family everybody likes Tiramisu, well everybody except me, so they make it all the time. Unfortunately to make good Tiramisu you need a good Mascarpone and mascarpone is always really expensive, usually 200g costs some 4-5 euros depending on the brand of it.
About a year ago I …
Eggo Muffin Tops
We were at the store last night and decided to pick up some frozen breakfast foods. While in the frozen pancake/waffle aisle, I came across Eggo Muffin Tops and, because they weren’t that expensive, decided to give them a try.
