Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc Wine (2007)
This is a great tasting wine. I gave it to quite a few friends at a party and every single one of them said they enjoyed the taste. It’s a tasty wine, and the alcoholic and acidic content is down to a minimum - indeed, it’s probably the closest …
Sunfeast Pastha treat
Sun feast pastha treat is a snack which can be prepared just in few minutes. It is made of pastas, which are very tasty and delicious. It is very good to eat for kids, especially in the evenings when my kids are little hungry after their play. …
Sargento Classic Cheddar Jack - Fancy Shredded
Back before the holidays I was looking in the supermarket for shredded cheese. As it happened, this one was on sale and so I bought it. I’m glad I did, as this is a very excellent cheese indeed.
I like how easy this cheese is to use in all of …
Nestle White Lily Milk
I am a person who loves my milk and when I was younger I used to drink Nestle’s White Lily milk quite often. The quality back then was very rich and worth the money. But as time progressed the quality dropped but the prices raised.
The other day I …
Slim Fast Optima Chocolate Cookie Dough
Slim Fast Optima Chocolate Cookie Dough bars are amazing. I don’t really follow the Slim Fast plan or anything like that, but I tend to skip lunch, which has me ravenous by the time that I get home for dinner. I decided that I needed something that I could …
Kelloggs Special K Honey Clusters
I’m allergic, just mildly to nuts and so in a bid to find a cereal that tasted somehow nutty but doesn’t contain nuts, I stumbled upon Kelloggs Special K Honey Clusters. I’m not usually one for buying branded cereals but I have been very pleased indeed with these. …
Slim Fast Optima Bars
Thumbs up for the Slim Fast Optima Bars! Any time I know I am going to miss a few meals, getting the Slim Fast bars is a healthy choice. Not only are there a variety of choices to choose from, but they taste good too. The Peanut Butter Crunch …
Mrs.T’s Potato & 4 Cheese Bleng Pirogies
I bought a pack of Mrs.T’s Potato & 4 Cheese Bleng Pirogies this week, for the first time. “Pirogies” are neatly folded pasta shells filled with a mixture of potatoes and, in this case, four kinds of cheese: cheddar, parmesan, romano, and swiss. It is a frozen product that …
Wadilal chocobar
In India the Wadilal ice creams are very popular and are very tasty and yummy too. Especially the wadilal chocobars are my favourite ice creams. Actually I have tasted the chocobar ice creams of many brands but the wadilal chocobar is something very special. Unlike any …
Emerald Harmony Island Crunch Trail Mix
For as long as I can remember I have loved dehydrated fruit. I remember my grandfather pulling out his food dehydrator and making dehydrated bananas, apples, and many other fruits. Now I find myself buying a lot of this dried fruit when I go to the store. Recently I …
Jolly Crispy Bangus
Jollibee has just come up with a new breakfast meal called the Jollibee’s Crispy Bangus. Bangus is a fish also known as milkfish.
The Jollibee Crispy Bangus is a new great addition to Jollibee’s list of delicious rice meals. People who crave for home-cooked foods or those people that …
Casa Mamita Mexican Style Lasagna
Casa Mamita Mexican Style Lasagna is a frozen lasagna carried at ALDI Food Market stores. It costs seven dollars and ninety-nine cents and is big enough to feed four people. I was intrigued by this frozen lasagna when I came across it in the refrigerated case because I had …
Carmel Apple Coffee
I have recently tried Carmel Apple coffee from Cafe Brunches of Mansfield Ohio. I had a cup of the Carmel Apple blend and enjoyed its delicious and fragrant beans so much that I ordered a half a pound of whole coffee beans to go, for about four fifty …
Asian Noodle Stir Fry: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Asian Noodle Stir Fry is not one of my favorite dishes by Amy’s Meals. The portion is to small and it does not fill me up. To me this makes it a bad meal because it is 300 calories. I do not like that because I would …
Two-Bite Homestyle Chocolate Cupcakes
The first time I tried a Two-Bite product, it was for brownies. I liked the product quite a lot originally, but I later became a tad disenchanted. They proved to dry out quicker than I’d like. Even so, I thought I’d try the Two-Bite Homestyle Chocolate …
hint - Peppermint
Peppermint flavored bottle water is a real treat to drink! I love the refreshing and flavor of peppermint mints, and now, having peppermint infused with water is another way that I can appreciate the rich and soothing peppermint flavor! This flavored water is really quite addicting. I have no …
Candylicious Rum and Raisin Fudge
Who ever came up with the rum and raisin combination must have been a genius of sorts. Frankly I only like to taste alcohol in my desserts or sometimes sweets and imagine how surprised I was when I saw that Candylicious, which is a small candy stall/store in a …
Green Giant Broccoli and Cauliflower Giant Bites
One of my favorite snacks is the broccoli bites that are so popular at the steak sandwich shops in the Philadelphia metro area. Little bits of broccoli with cheddar or mozzarella cheese rolled together and breaded and fried….so bad yet soooooo good!!
When I happened upon a bag of …
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Chocolate Frosted
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Chocolate Frosted are positively terrible! The chocolate frosting really does not taste a whole lot like chocolate to me. There is a hint of chocolate flavor, but it is accompanied by something else that is really
quite, well, bad. I do not know what it is …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes
Admittedly, I was quite skeptical when I first purchased Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes. The reason for my skepticism is because generally, when I purchase low-calorie and reduced sugar foods, especially dessert or snack items, I end up being immensely disappointed in the flavor as there is usually very …
365 Plain Greek Yogurt (32 oz)
Last time I went to Whole Foods, they were out of my favorite brand of Greek yogurt - Greek Gods plain - and I really wanted to get some for breakfast for the next week. I’ve tried several other brands at Whole Foods and not been impressed (including Oikos …
Twix Cookie Bars
From the Mars company, Twix Cookie Bars are a combination of chocolate and caramel that have a cookie crunch to them versus just a candy taste.
Quite honestly, I’m not a big fan of Twix Cookie Bars. They definitely do have that cookie crispness and that’s probably one reason …
Archer Farms Muesli Cereal
A few days ago I bought a container of this cereal from Target. I say container because it does not come in a box but in an oval stiff-sided contraption with a hard plastic lid. I admit to being attracted to the image of the cereal on the front …
Great Value Purified Drinking Water
I have never really been into drinking water. I know that this is not a healthy decision and have found myself having a lot of urinary and bladder problems because of it. I know that I like bottled water at least a little bit and decided to start purchasing …
Mrs. Paul’s Crunchy Fish Sticks
I loved eating fish sticks when I was a kid. Recently I was feeling a little nostalgic, so I bought a box of store brand fish sticks from my local grocery store. That ended up being a big mistake, because the fish sticks were mostly breading, and …
Amy’s Organic Salsa Medium
I was looking around a newly opened “Organics” store at a mall a week ago and this has caught my eye. I’ve been having this hankering for yummy salsa so I picked up a jar instead of the organic potato chips they were selling. I’m not usually one of …
Krispy Creme Doughnuts and Coffee in Pensacola Florida
Last week, me and my husband drove to Pensacola for my Physical Exam as required for my immigration papers. After that appointment, we got hungry and decided to grab some doughnuts. We had to use our GPS to find where it is and it wasn’t far from the clinic. …
General Mills Wheat Chex
For those of you out there who are looking for a great way to start your day I would recommend General Mills Wheat Chex. Wheat Chex are a healthy choice breakfast cereal that tastes good and is good for you. Both adults and kids will like this …
Pantry Blends Tortilla Soup Mix
I enjoy soup, whether it be on a cold, rainy day, snuggled in front of the TV or on a warm day, served up with a side sandwich or crackers. My favorite way to enjoy soup is when it is homemade. Yes every now and then I take the …

Special K snack bar
Everyone is in a hurry at least once in a while, and it can be very convenient to just grab a quick snack as you run out the door, to eat later when you’re not in so much of a hurry. One such snack that you could try is …
San Mig Light Beer
San Mig Light Beer is what I usually see people drink everywhere, especially in bars. Various people in different ages likes it. I think it’s called San Mig Light because it has a low calorie content compared to the regular San Miguel Beer. I tried it in the past …
Great Value Steak Fries
Great Value Steak Fries are made by Walmart, so they can only be found at Walmart. When you do go to purchase them, you will notice that they are pretty reasonably priced: just two dollars and twelve cents for a twenty-eight ounce bag! That is a better deal than …
Durkee Citrus Grill Seasoning
We had a picnic in a park last summer. We all agreed to bring a little something for potluck and a friend of mine brought this lemony steamed whiting fish. It was a hit in the picnic table. My husband and I loved it. We asked her how she made …
Taco Bell Volcano Taco
I am going to start this review by telling you two things, 1) I normally love taco bell and 2) this was a nasty nasty taco I do not recommend. I almost never review food because I believe it is a personal choice. I am …
Stouffer’s Beef Pot Roast
Stouffer’s Beef Pot Roast is a meal that I look forward to having. The reason I look forward to having this meal is because it is really quite flavorful and enjoyable! The beef used for this meal is really very tender and offers a good flavor. The carrots offer …
Tesco 4 Nutty Nougat Caramel Milk Chocolate Bars
I think these are fab little snack bars from Tesco’s own range. I have tried several of their own brand confectionary that are direct rip-offs of well-known brands of chocolate bars, like Mars bar for instance. This one is a carbon-copy of a Snickers bar, although they …
Solo Cream Soda Soft Drink
There are so many different types of drinks and soft drinks (or sodas) out on the market these days that it is getting extremely hard to choose which one is the best. Even here in my country there is always a new soda brand or flavour coming out. Now …
Lean Cuisine Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry
I’m becoming a big fan of Lean Cuisine meals, the more I try, the more I like! This is the first time I’ve had Lean Cuisine Chicken Teriyaki. Their website describes it as “Roasted chicken breast topped with water chestnuts, carrots and red bell peppers in slightly sweet teriyaki …
Orbit Mist
I recently tried the new gum from Orbit called Mist. I love chewing gum. Especially when I am bored. So I have tried almost every gum on the market. I must say that this gum is at the top of …
Bailie Nicol Jarvie Whisky
Many Scotch whiskies have associations with historical characters. Grant’s is a case in point. Others celebrate the land itself with names that echo the unusual names in this small nation: Laphroaig, for instance, or Jura, an island to the west of the mainland of Scotland. The whisky I …
Stouffer’s Escalloped Chicken & Noodles
Stouffer’s Escalloped Chicken & Noodles is probably a meal that I will not purchase again. The reason I will likely not purchase it again is because I did not find the combination meal to be all that satisfying. It even upset my stomach a little. I think there was …
Gorton’s Haddock Fillets
A very tasty item that you can find at the grocery store are Gorton’s Haddock Fillets. This is a store bought fish that is packaged in the frozen food section of the grocery store. The haddock fillets are breaded and ready to eat. You just put them …
Chick-fil-A Chargrilled & Fruit Salad
The Chick-fil-A Chargrilled & Fruit Salad might just be about the healthiest menu item that can be ordered at this fast food restaurant. I tried this salad dish once and I likely will not order it again because it just is not something that I can see myself looking …
Vitasoy Melon-Flavoured Soy Drink
I wan on my way to work, but really needed a small snack. I have been rather dehydrated these days. So I grabbed a bun and searched for a drink in the refrigerator of 7-Eleven store.
I thought that I lacked calcium, so I took a soy drink. The vitasoy …
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup is the only one of the Campbell’s soups (that I can think of, at least) that you are supposed to cook with milk, not milk or water. There is a note on the back of the can, specifically stating so. I normally do …
Parle G biscuits
Parle G biscuits is the brand of biscuits which I like very much. These are very tasty and delicious biscuits. Parle G is an old brand of biscuits. Recently, many new brands of biscuits have mushroomed in the market, but Parle G has lost neither its popularity nor its …
The Co operative Creamy Golden Vegetable Soup
The Co-operative’s own brand ‘Creamy Golden Vegetable Soup’ is my favourite soup at the moment. Although it is very cheap at only about 50 pence per can, I think it is lovely. I usually only buy tomato soup but I wanted to find something a bit more …
DIET TURBO TEA
Diet Turbo Tea is the ultra caffeinated enery drink that you can pick up at any reputable health food store. Granted, regular tea has quite a bit of caffeine but this product packs quite a punch! Probably because it has guarana and ginseng tossed in as an added kick.
And …
Apple Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pumpkin Pie is a fairly delightful dessert that I am sometimes able to purchase at Tom Thumb around September, October and November. The reason that I say it is a fairly delightful dessert is because it does have a slight flaw to it: the pie comes across as …
