The other day I visited my local Mexican supermarket and bought a few fresh guava fruits while I was there. The ones I purchased are the small Mexican variety with the white insides and the green outsides. Basically they look like little green golf balls. I have never eaten …

Moving on with my review.. I am going review this new product from Oishi called “Gourmet Picks Potato …

There is no doubt for me that one of the highlights of going to MacDonalds is their fries. I have always loved them and wish they could be readily available at home. I understand that this would probably turn me into a very overweight being, but they are lovely.
It …

During the summer, I find that I tend to drink more than other times during the year. I prefer to drink diet drinks over other beverages or coffee. When a friend gave me a few bottles of Diet Lipton Citrus Green Tea, I was a little skeptical. …

Jell-o Pudding - Vanilla is not quite as good and delicious as the instant boxed pudding variety, although I still enjoyed my purchase of it. I still found the vanilla flavor to be relatively rich and tasty, and the texture of the pudding, creamy and smooth. The three pack …

I like the Oscar Mayer Wieners brand of hotdogs, they can be a little pricy, but the taste is always good. The turkey, pork & chicken variety is probably the cheapest, I bought 2 packs for $3 several days ago. The hotdogs are sold in packs of 10; actually, …

Once more, for the third time exploring my near diabetic Papa’s arsenal of store-bought holiday treats, we have Spaans Sugar Free Spiced Windmill cookies next on the buffet line. (For clearer context, see my other Spaans cookie reviews, such as Lemon Chiffon and Ginger Bars.)
So…how does this latest “commandeered …

I have tried many brands of …

Recently I went to Mini Stop a famous convenience store here in the Philippines because I wanted to buy some beverages and cellphone load. After doing so, I saw the sign that they are selling Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Sundae for only 15 pesos which in dollars is just $0.31 …

Diet Sunkist is absolutely my favorite diet soft drink ever! It is amazingly similar in taste to the original Sunkist, but it has no calories! I highly recommend Diet Sunkist to anyone who is looking for a good tasting soft drink but does not necessarily want all of the calories …

Hubby went outside to buy our dinner and when he came back he already bought beer with him. It was not the regular beer that we used to drink during our weekend dinner at home. It was my first time to taste London Pilsner Premium beer. It was not …

McDonald’s sausage biscuits are a great breakfast food. The local McDonald’s in Jamestown, Tennessee sells them one for a dollar or two for a dollar and ten cents. Can’t eat two? Don’t worry you can freeze the second one for another day when you are in a hurry and …

Crystal Light On the Go Packets are a neat little product. They are little tubes of powder that you can tuck in your pocket or purse and use individually.
Crystal Light On the Go Packets, Lemonade flavor came with me on a trip to Florida recently. They were so easy …

I am both in awe and very frightened of this product. It is a dairy product you do not need to refrigerate. Why doesn’t it need to be refrigerated? I have no idea but I assume it means they did something to process it to make it …

I love Dr. Thunder for its pleasant, refreshing “almondy” taste, very close to that of Dr. Pepper and for half the price. I buy 2 liter bottles of it at Walmart for only 58 cents a bottle, and sometimes they even lower the price to 50 cents - hard …

Healthy snacks are very easy to come by. But healthy snacks that taste great and make you want to go out and buy more, or choose that over cookies or chips are very hard to come by. But after trying Sunkist Fudge covered coconut bars I have hope that …

I love yogurt, and since I have been trying to lose weight I have decided to include more of it in my diet, either as a snack or sometimes as lunch. Another thing which influenced me to eat more of it was when I found out that snacking on …

It has always been a Filipino habit to buy canned foods. There are several reasons for this. One is that it’s cheaper compared to buying foods that still needs cooking. Another reason is that it does not easily spoil. So, storing it is not that hard. Corned beef is …

Cheerios Snack Mix is a nice little snack mix that can satisfy hunger pangs. I like Cheerios the cereal, and was not very sure about Cheerios as a snack mix. Cheerios the cereal is very healthy and many kids grew up on it, so why create a snack mix? …

I am in love with Culver’s and this place, with it’s prime location is one of my favorite spots to hit. Ever since I was a little younger, I remember going out to Culver’s and getting their Butterburger. Apparently, they were recently named the top fast food brand of …

I found these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes to be pretty average in flavor. If you have ever had a regular yellow cake before, you know that the flavor is inherently none too impressive, but it can make for a light and fluffy snack that does not spike …

This chex mix is really good. It’s all cheddar. I really like it because I like everything that they put into the chex mix. I like the regular also but this kind is just something different to eat. Everything that they put into the chex mix is cheddar. I …

Although Mrs. Freshley’s Easter: Cottontail Snowballs are only around for about one month of the year, I find that to be okay because there is nothing special about these snowballs. I can purchase snowballs at any time of the year and they are pretty much identical to these. The …

Since my childhood days, I remember that Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning has been used for our food preparations at home. At that time, I didn’t have any idea its significance in our food. Anyway, as years went on, different food seasonings have been introduced in the market. I actually prefer …

Let’s discuss vanilla extract. When baking cookies recently, I ran out of vanilla extract, and went to the grocery store. I was in an immediate rut. My cookie dough was still in the bowl requiring vanilla.
Some of the prices of grocery store pure vanillas are outragous, and I …

I have tried making a chocolate cake using Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe cake mix. The cake turned out to be just as beautiful, rich, and moist as it is shown on the picture on the box, with the only exception of frosting: the box shows brown frosting and I …

Even though I’ve been a vegetarian for most of my adult life, I still miss some of my favorite childhood dishes made with meat. I regularly purchase veggie burgers and chick patties, and though I’m satisfied with the taste of these substitutes, they have a unique flavor that …

There are so many cooking oils out there that it really isn’t an easy thing picking out one. For that reason, I did some research on what is considered the “healthiest” oils to cook with and my research revealed that canola oil is generally considered to be about the …

I’m sure most people have heard of Haagan Dazs. They make some really good ice creams with exotic flavors. The difference between Haagan Dazs and Ben and Jerry’s ice creams, aside from the flavors and names is that Ben and Jerry’s angle is fun and creativity. Whereas Haagan Dazs …

If you’re like me you enjoy making a sandwich that’s packed with all the fixings. In my opinion the best part of a sandwich besides everything else is the lunch meat. I know when going to sandwich shops like subway or making my own sandwiches and wraps at …

Not really a popcorn lover, I do occasionally enjoy a bag of it, when I’m not in the mood for a heavier snack. And even more infrequently do I eat it during the movies. But if I AM going to have it, I prefer anything that …

Ever since the summer started this year and our lime tree had not been producing very many limes because of the drought, my family and I had started to buy lime juice again. However, some brands could be a bit expensive at the time, which was hard since we …

My wife got a free sample of Stacy’s Simply Naked Pita Chips the other day in the mail. I’m not sure who sent it to her exactly (both my dad and my mother-in-law spend hours looking for free samples on line each week) but, it wasn’t a product I’ve …

I often go out to buy grocery for my house. I am a complete foodie, and taste does matter to me. I don’t eat a lot of spicy food, but then it has to have some kind of taste. I often use Maggie sweet and sour tomato ketchup in …

The hamburger from McDonalds is one of my favorite snacks when I’m out and I get hungry. For example, if I’m walking to the grocery store I often stop in and get two hamburgers to go. Then I can eat them on the way to the store and they …

Actually, when you look at the label for this food product, it says Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce & Vitamin C. I like to call it a more simple “apple sauce.”
For me, apple sauce goes back to my childhood and one set of my grandparents. When visiting them, …

Recently, the Whole Foods Market near my job relocated and a Trader Joe’s was put up in it’s place. I’ve always known about Trader Joe’s, but have never actually visited a store. I never really understood what a Trader Joe’s is, nor …

I’m a huge fan of Red Baron By the Slice Pepperoni Pizza, which I am buying with regularity so last week I decided to try a different variety of this easy to prepare meal and purchased Red Baron By the Slice 4-Cheese Pizza.
I was as impressed with this 4-Cheese …

Great Value: Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches are alright, although really, it would be nice if the sandwiches offered a richer peanut butter flavor. I feel that the peanut butter flavor came across as being somewhat subdued in flavor and that I found to be disappointing. The chocolate cookies …

I had a meeting last week and it lasted for a few hours. It was already 4:30 pm and everyone was really hungry. I, myself, was even starving and I can even hear my stomach almost shouting. Being the administrator, I decided to ask the receptionist to order a …

I’m not really sure where we got them (I believe it was through the SHARE program) but we had a couple of packages of Eros Market brand chicken breast tenders in our freezer and, figuring they would make a nice meal, I decided to make them on the grill.
Wow, …

Nabisco Oreo Cookies are a tradition. They are awesome cookies for child and adult alike, but when you’re young, these treats are tops. These chocolate sandwich cookies filled with a creamy icing center are pure temptation. Okay, I’m an adult, and I still eat them as …

Honestly, Papa Johns Pizza is the best pizza in the world! I used to like pizza to a certain point, but I never *loved* it until I had tried Papa Johns. Pizza Hut used to be what I thought was good, freshly made pizza, but Papa Johns beats it …

I like to eat pizza, and was looking for a way to make it healthier. I saw that Boboli has a whole wheat pizza crust, and thought I would try it. When I first saw the crust, it looked thinner than the original Boboli pizza crust. …
