Dannon Activia Peach Cereal Harvest Yogurt
The newest flavor I have tried of Dannon Activia Yogurt was the Peach and Cereal Harvest. At first, I wondered if the cereal would be soggy inside of the yogurt, and one thing I really dislike is cereal that is soggy. I then wondered if this yogurt would somehow …
Kombucha Wonder Drink, Traditional Kombucha Beverage

Auntie Anne’s Pretzels (food)

Breyers Chocolate Crackle
Breyers Chocolate Crackle definitely appeals to me in this sense: it is an ice cream that sort of alternates between a smooth texture and a crunchy texture. I like an ice cream that does just that because contrasting textures is a quality that I like in an ice cream. …
Coke Zero No Sugar
I made a promise to myself to cut down my intake of carbonated drinks and make it a habit instead of drinking more water. But sometimes it is really very tempting specially after a heavy meal or during a tired day or when you have to fight the urge …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Yogurt Creme Cakes
I did not care too much for Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Yogurt Creme Cakes because they reminded me too much of Hostess Twinkies in both texture and taste and I really do not like Twinkies! The cake itself is soft, and although I normally do not mind soft cake, I …

Aquolina Pink Sugar
Hummm, I’m so in love with it! Usually, I’m not crazy about foody-scents, but for few reasons, I surprised myself loving wearing it as soon as I sprayed it on me for the first time. Initially, I thought that Pink Sugar would be a one note perfume because of …

Gourmet Select Onion Rings
I didn’t like these onion rings too much because they weren’t real crispy. Onion rings need to have a crispy exterior otherwise they aren’t that good. The crispy exterior is just as enjoyable as the onion and batter flavors to me, so it’s just as important. These onions aren’t …
Target’s Archer Farms Finely Ground Espresso
I’ve never bought my own espresso before, so this was my first attempt purchasing espresso for my cappuccino maker. I’m really not a fan of Starbucks beans after working there, so I was avoiding Starbucks espresso. The Archer Farms espresso proved to be an excellent alternative for a good …

Pillsbury Cherry Turnovers
I have just tried making Pillsbury Cherry Turnovers for the first time, and I think it’s a keeper. My husband and I loved them, even though I had messed up a little when cooking.

Michelina’s Four Cheese Lasagna
This frozen dinner doesn’t even look like traditional lasagna. It’s not in a square or rectangular shape and it doesn’t have meat, either. This is a lasagna dish that’s all about the cheese and noodles. The blending of four cheeses is the highlight of this frozen dinner. There’s ricotta …

Dempster’s Flax Bread
