Spices so often make or break a dish. Now, I’m not a big cook. My readers know that, but one of the spices I’ve grown up with and can use on almost anything is cinnamon. I just adore the taste. One of the most basic …

Frankly, I don’t really see why brands name beef loafs and meat loafs as two different entities. They’re actually one and the same to me. They taste similar– I can’t seem to see the difference at all. …

“ 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 …

Folgers Instant Coffee is very good. This is the stuff that gets me going in the morning and it’s a very good product. Another great thing about this coffee is that it’s sold at a good price. It’s not to expensive. With a coupon you can get the Folgers …

Whenever you go to any cake shop and you could find Baked Chocolate Mousse, there is a high chance that the taste …

Chobani is my favorite brand of greek yogurt, one that I don’t hesitate to place in my cart whenever I’m in the dairy section of the grocery store. They have so many flavors to choose from that it’s kind of hard to decided which one to take home with …

The vanilla milk shake of Burger King is a milk shake that tends to be on a thinner side. This is not a disadvantage for me always. Most of the time a value sized vanilla milk shake from Burger King is more than enough for me to quench my …

The other day I stopped off at Target’s in-store lunch counter while running errands in the area. I had skipped breakfast that day so I was pretty hungry. In the past they had some decent sandwiches and on occasion I would buy one from them. Alas, those days are …

I’ve been trying to find a perfect plant-based milk for my coffee for the last few months or so, but I couldn’t find the one that would froth well and taste good at the same time.
However, I’ve always known that soymilk frothes well, but it tasted disgusting when I tried …

My favorite cereal brand of all time is Kellogg’s. I’ve grown up with them and they have the most varieties that I love. That said, I tend to like the ones that aren’t necessarily the healthiest. However, when I have chosen to eat something that isn’t …

Another guilty pleasure of mine is buying “Charles Peanut Gems” whenever I can find them. These are chocolate covered peanuts that have a candy coating. In a sense they remind me of a cheaper, more Caribbean brand of M&Ms since it have blue, yellow, green brown and red chocolate …

Late nights are tough when your stomach is growling and you realize that you inadvertently skipped dinner. To avoid a grocery store trip, I settled on Burger King. There was a McDonald’s nearby as well. But I had a taste for “real” beef, charbroiled taste—something …

These pudding treats are made to be eaten as …

I did not care for Entenmann’s Holiday Pop’ems very much at all. The reason I did not like them too much is because there is just not a lot of flavor to the pop’ems. These pop’ems are covered in sprinkles and aside from looking colorful and nice, these sprinkles …

My height was quite normal at the age of 12, but I wanted to be tall than anyone else in the class. The Complan ads got my attention and I asked my mother to get me one. She first told me that there is nothing wrong with your height, …

There is a lot that I like about Hunt’s Tomato Ketchup, although there are some things that I feel could be improved that would make this ketchup even better. First though, let me say that this is a really rich ketchup that does a superb job of adding a …

This is the only on the go drink mix that I have ever tried. It’s one of the things you put in bottled watter to make it flavored. Well I would rather just buy the flavored water already made. To me this didn’t have enough flavor in it. It …

Stouffer’s Cheese Manicotti is a very enjoyable cheesy pasta meal that I like to have a couple of times a month. Although there is technically more cheese and sauce than noodles, I nonetheless find the triple flavor combination to be scrumptious and satisfying. The three cheeses offer up a …

This is a sauce that you are supposed to heat up gently and stir into freshly cooked pasta. Personally I find it too bland to use it that way, but I use it successfully in more inventive ways. The sauce is made up of 61% tomatoes and …

Campbell’s Condensed Tomato Soup used to be one of my most often-used cooking ingredients - until I had tried the Great Value brand and discovered that it works just as well. After that, I am sorry to say, I betrayed Campbell’s tomato soup and stopped buying it. Still, it …

I would not even try to pronounce —˜Farfalle’ so for those of you who are as ignorant as me on Italian pasta terminology, these are pasta bow-ties, about an inch and a half in length. They are from Sainsbury’s own brand and they cost me about 68p for …

This cereal from Tom Thumb is a little above average, but the quality isn’t high enough to justify the size of the box or the price of the cereal. The size of the box is twelve ounces and the price is almost three dollars. I really like strawberries, so …

I mentioned in another review that I ordered pasta from Pizza Hut this past weekend. Along with lasagna, I ended up purchasing some of their chicken Alfredo (they had a 2-for-one sale going on).
I wasn’t a huge fan of their lasagna (which is normally my favorite food), but this …

I was not a yogurt eater until I heard about the Actavia Yogurt by Dannon. I heard about all the great benefits of eating this yogurt and what it does for your system. I have also seen the commercials and decided to give it a try. When you are …

These new granola bars are much tastier than most granola bars. The layer of yogourt on the bottom adds a nice smooth taste to the granola.
It is also a nice portable snack - I like to grab one on my way out of the house to eat in the …

I have always been a fan of Canadian Maple Leaf meat products. I had never purchased one of their ready-to-go dinners, as I usually prefer to make a roast from scratch. Needing a quick meal for guests that were showing up in only one hour, I quickly purchased Maple …

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 …

I have never been a fan of the Oreo cookies. To me a cookie should be soft and sweet with some added chocolate and the hard, not-so-chocolate taste of the cookies never appealed to me. So I was surprised when I tried the new Oreo Cakesters and fell in …

When i am sick this soup really helps me, because i love the rice im not really a fan of noodles thats nasty to me. I like it and alot of people might think this is funny but its because it also says its a healthy choice soup. And …

I recently picked up a box of the Tazo Organic Chai Spiced Black Tea and I must say it is so tasty. I love that this tea is made from organic ingredients such as black teas, cinnamon, black pepper, ginger root, cardamom, cloves and star anise. These ingredients combined …

Publix was having one of their sales, and I knew the prices on Blue Bell ice cream would have a …

Chunks Ahoy is a brand of chocolate chip cookies from the company Christie. I’m a very picky eater, and usually I only eat chocolate chip cookies from the bakery section of my grocery store, seeing as those are the freshest and softest. However, my friends all told me that …

McDonald’s french fries are my favorite. I have had french fries at Wendy’s, Burger King and Dairy Queen but none of them have as good of a flavor as the ones at McDonald’s. One of the things I like is the light crispiness of the fries and how they …

These chocolate edible wafer straws are not at all bad. The chocolate flavor is not incredibly rich or flavorful - they are actually a bit on the mild side, although the mild flavor is still good. They are certainly crunchy though, and I definitely like that. Do these edible …

During the warm months I like to do a lot of hiking. When I go hiking it is often my habit to chew gum in order to keep from getting dry mouth. I like to try different types and flavors of gum. Just recently I tried Wrigley’s Extra Fruit …

Unfortunately, these Little Bites 100 Calorie Blueberry Muffins are not at all better than the regular calorie blueberry muffins. I had hoped with these muffins that perhaps they would be a little more moist, but unfortunately, they still possessed a somewhat dry texture. The blueberries seem just as plentiful …

The chocolate Teddy Grahams are just as good today as I remember them to be years ago when I first started snacking on these little snack cookies. The chocolate Teddy Grahams offer a rich chocolate flavor that is present throughout the cookie. As soon as the small cookie hits …

We all love to eat many kind of food. Especially most of the people love to eat many kind of sweet dishes. But it may not possible to prepare such kind of special sweet dishes perfectly at home. That is why we prefer to go to …

I am not a regular drinker and I am also choosy on what I drink. I only go for ladies drinks like selected cocktail drinks and beer on special occasions. I was able to taste Tuborg Green beer and I can say that it is one of the best.
From …
