Michelina’s Vegetables & Stir Fry
This is a pretty good frozen meal that has quite a lot to offer in terms of flavor variety, but the main problem it suffers from is that there just aren’t enough vegetables tossed in with the rice. My wanting of more vegetables is partially a good thing as …

Milka Chocolate
Milka has been around since 1901, when it was first invented by Philippe Suchard in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. I guess that the old tradition makes Swiss chocolate among the best in the world because I think that when there were no machinery everything was better because it was prepared differenty. …
Witor’s Cuor di Mousse Yogurt, chocolate pralines
When I think of Witor’s brand first thing that comes to my mind are mini chocolate Christmas eggs. I have tried so many mini chocolate eggs but theirs are really one of the best, especially because they come at a very good price. So when the other day at my …
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones are not the champs of anything, unfortunately. All three varieties disappointed me because the flavors just were not as rich as I had been hoping. The vanilla variety is not nearly as enjoyable as the all-natural premium ice cream, and that is …
Goya Cookies & Cream
I have a sweet tooth. This has plagued me from childhood. Now, in my late thirties, I have to choose what I eat very well since my blood sugar has sometimes reached borderline level. Many years ago, I only indulged in imported brands. Now I’ve rediscovered the chocolate bar …

I can actually remember a time when Smarties candies did not come in the color blue. I know that is probably saying a lot about how old I am but in the 1980’s and being a child who was a chocolate lover, I was well acquainted with Smarties. It …
Boneless Pork Ribs by Banquet (frozen dinner)
I like buying Banquet frozen dinners because they are an affordable way to buy lunches and dinners for my family. They are also easy to make so the kids can make them on their own which leaves time for me to work on other things. I usually really like …
Trader Joe’s Garlic Naan
I love naan bread with Indian food. Indian dishes are often very saucy, and these are great for scooping up every last bit of the sauce. At the restaurants, the texture is soft slightly chewy and airy almost like a warm, oily version of white pita bread. Garlic naan …
The Grille Stop Spicy Chicken
The Grille Stop has been around for as long as I can remember and my absolute favourite food item on their menu is their Spicy Chicken. I usually go there solely to buy a piece of Spicy Chicken with a side of some sort.

Grape Crush Soda

Tesco Crumpets

Dodravka Dolcela pudding chocolate
When I was little my mother used to prepare me puddings all the time and I adored it, I never liked any taste but vanilla and chocolate so she was making only those two tastes. Other puddings had really nice colours but they weren’t that good and they didn’t …

General Mills Golden Grahams Cereal
I always used to love Golden Grahams when I was younger. This was probably one of my favorite cereals, because General Mills took the concept of graham crackers and put them in a cereal. I don’t know of any other cereal company that uses graham crackers in their cereal. …

Char-Broiled Beff Patties
One of my families favorite frozen entr’e’s is the Char-Broiled Beef Patties made by Freezer Queen that cost $1.79 at Wal-Mart. We never used to buy frozen dinners much because they were always more expensive than buying regular meat to cook. However with the price of ground beef …
