MorningStar Mini Corn Dogs
When I began this review it was simply that of Morning Star Mini Corn Dogs. As I got into the review process I found that I could not review Morning Star without comparing it to my old favorite Mini Corn Dogs from Foster Farms.
Morning Star brand offers a variety …
Witor’s Torroncino chocolate candy
Witor’s is an Italian company that makes chocolates and very good ones I must admit.
Torroncino chocolate candy made by Witor’s looks like this: it has a shape of a small dome, it has about 10g and it has 2 white strips of glaze on it. It looks very nice. …
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Whole Grain White Bread
Of all the white breads I’ve had in the past year or so, Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Whole Grain White Bread is probably my favorite. That said, I really haven’t had a white bread that I truly love in a while. Rainbo used to be my favorite, …
Simply Made Lemonade
One of my favorite thing to drink is real fruit juice. I love orange, apple, and grape. I also love fresh squeezed lemonade. I saw Simply Made Lemonade in the store. I liked the sleek bottle and the label. The lemonade looked fresh because of the color. I decided …
Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Bubbly
I am something of a chocoholic - I love all things chocolatey, from cakes to bars and everything in between. Yet my concerns about a fair trade for developing world producers (where most cocoa is grown) and worries about forced child labour has led me to try to focus …
Arce Dairy Ice Cream
It was just another sizzling hot summer when I was able to try a unique flavor of ice cream. I rarely seen this pistachio flavor in an ice cream. Weird, but I must say the flavor is real good. In fact, my younger brother who’s not into eating ice …
Cedarlane Spinach and Feta Tamales
I recently purchased the Cedarlane brand Spinach and Feta Cheese Tamales frozen product. These tamales, with quinoa for added nutrients, were not as I had hoped and anticipated them to be. The taste was too bland, and, for lack of a better word, earthy in texture.
The tamales …
Bellarom Chocolate
Obviously you can’t beat the taste of name brand chocolate wherever you may live, be it Cadbury’s, Hershey’s, Lindt or Nestlé but it isn’t always the case to say that cheaper chocolate is an inferior product. Often, I find we pay in excess for a “name” with some products …
Santa Maria Spanish Sardines ( Hot and Spicy )
I love sardines both those produced locally and abroad. Just recently I bought some Spanish sardines in Australia. The product in placed inside an easy-to-open oblong tin can. It is easy to open so this is handy and very quick to prepare. I find it ideal when you travel …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Bunny Tracks
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Bunny Tracks is a real sweet ice cream treat! This ice cream contains vanilla, peanut butter chocolate bunnies, chocolate-coated peanuts, chocolate fudge drizzles and peanut butter caramel. That is a whole lot of flavor to take in and your taste buds certainly will be …
Bud Light Lime
The other day in the supermarket something caught my eye. In the beer isle I noticed that Anhueser Bush had a new product called Bud Lite Lime. It came in a clear bottle and the label said it had a “lime twist”. I asertained that Anhueser Bush was trying …
Nescafe Cappuccino
As far as I remember, right from my childhood I have been seeing the Nescafe brand coffee being consumed in my family. They have been so loyal to the brand that I have never seen any other brand in my house, to be truthful. As I grew, I also …
Breakfast Best Homestyle Waffles
I was very pleasantly surprised with the the quality of these low priced waffles. Breakfast Best Homestyle Waffles are carried by ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and twenty nine cents. For that price, ten waffles come in a box. That’s really quite a value, and what makes …
Special K’s Strawberry Protein Meal Bars
The Special K diet suggests that you replace two meals with either a meal bar or a bowl of cereal. If someone was to follow this diet as suggested, I have no doubt that they would lose weight. These meal bars are delicious. However, the problem …
Combos Snacks - Cheddar Cheese Pretzel
Combos Snacks - Cheddar Cheese Pretzel is a snack that consists of a pretzel exterior and and a cheddar cheese interior, hence the name of the product. I find this particular variety to be flavorful as the pretzel exterior definitely has a potent salt flavor and once I bite …
Mom’s Day Mini Brownies
As you know for Mother’s Day there are lots of treats and candies, flowers, etc that go on sale for mum or are just made for this special occasion. Well at Walmart in Troy, Alabama there was Mom’s Day Mini Brownies on sale for this special day. I decided …
Silk Soy Creamer Original
Eliminating dairy from your diet is a good way to reduce fat and cholesterol intake. I successfully eliminated all dairy from my diet about a year ago except the half and half in my morning coffee. I look forward to my morning coffee too much to sacrifice …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Frosty Peach
The Del Monte Fruit Chillers product line is a favorite of mine during the summer time. When summer arrives at my front doorstep, I start buying Del Monte Fruit Chillers because ice cold frozen fruit treats really taste unbelievably good and refreshing on a steaming summer day. Take this …
Breyers Extremely Creamy Vanilla
Breyers Extremely Creamy Vanilla is really not all that bad, but I honestly have had much better vanilla ice cream before. While this variety offers what I consider to be a mildly pleasant vanilla flavor, it does not excite my taste buds in such a way that my eyes …
Welch’s Sparkling Strawberry Soda
Growing up, I loved Shasta Strawberry Soda, but then they changed things and I believe they went out of business; I’m really not sure. Then I found a Strawberry Crush that I was able to get for a time, but on my last outing, the only thing I …
Hunts Tomato Sauce
Every Saturday night for years and years, my family enjoyed spaghetti. As a rule, we made a simple version with a basic tomato sauce to which we added spaghetti sauce seasoning, or maybe some other spices of choice. Our preferred product was actually Del Monte Tomato Sauce. …
Del Monte Fit n’ Right
Del Monte Fit n’ Right is a beverage that is very delicious. I started drinking this juice at the beginning of this year because I heard on TV that it helps in managing you weight. So far, I have not seen any improvements yet with regards to their claim. …
Trident Tropical Twist Sugar Free Gum
Trident Tropical Twist sugar free gum is a favorite around my house. I love how the sticks are small and I can fit the whole pack comfortably in my purse without squishing the pack because it’s not too tiny. I do wish that the gum was not artificially flavored …
Ice Breakers Gum, Ice Cubes
Ice Breakers Gum, Ice Cubes come in a small box. When you open the box, you discover little “cubes” of gum. Ice Breakers Ice Cubes offer a quick burst of flavor when you first start to chew it. One of the things I enjoy about this product is that …
Pet Ice Cream
Nothing beats the old traditional taste of Pet Ice Cream. Pet Ice cream is what I grew up on, in fact their Ice cream making tradition is so old, its what my motehr grew up on as well.
This is a really great tasting real milk ice cream that everyone …
Kellogg’s Original Cinnabon Pancakes
Twelve Kellogg’s Original Cinnabon Pancakes come in a package for two dollars and fifty cents. That may sound like a fairly good deal, but the pancakes themselves actually aren’t that big. They’re more like mini-pancakes, looking to be about four inches in length. The size of the pancakes seriously …
Haagen-Daz Ice Cream Mooncake
Despite the price, Haagen Daz is the favourite ice cream for most people. Now, Haagen Daz come up with a new product that makes me like them even more.
Haagen Daz Ice Cream Mooncake.
Lately, people try to make all kind of flavors for …
Wrigley’s Doublemint Mints
When I was in China to attend the expo I had to have something in my purse to keep me from having low blood sugar. I checked out their shop in a gasoline station and I was able to find Wrigley’s Doublemint Mints. It was something that I could …
Freschetta PizzAmore 10-Topping Pizza
My wife had to run to the store late yesterday afternoon. And, since I had the baby and she wasn’t allowing me to cook, I had her pick up some frozen pizzas for dinner.
She came home with PizzAmore pizzas from Freschetta; including their 10-topping pizza.
While there were some things …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Balsamic Garlic Chicken
I’ve tried a lot of the Café Steamers but this is the first Mediterranean Café Steamer I purchased. I’ve tried Healthy Choice’s Mediterranean Pasta from their All Natural line and wasn’t too happy with it. But this steamer had a lot of components I liked, such as …
PayDay Candy Bar
PayDay Candy Bars make me think back and remember my childhood. It’s a weird kind of symbol of happy family times. No, my family didn’t sit around eating PayDay Candy Bars, but they were one of my mom’s favorites, and I loved them, too.
PayDay Candy Bars are …
OnCor Lasagna with Meat Sauce
Let me begin by saying that I am not a big fan of lasagna. I don’t believe it is worth the time to make from scratch, so I wouldn’t want to do that. That’s why I have tried this frozen lasagna product: I decided that if I ever make …
Yoplait French Vanilla
Along with the Banana Creme and Strawberry varieties produced by Yoplait, the French Vanilla variety is among my favorites. Vanilla, in general, I love, especially in the form of ice cream, but it is very tasty in yogurt too, as this product proves. Every spoonful is rich in French …
M.Y San Sky Flakes
Since I was a kid, my mom is telling me to always eat on time. She never miss to bring me my packed lunch from my first day in school, when I was working in the city and now that I am already a full time self-employed individual. Mom …
Cheez Whiz Milky Delight 220g
We used to buy Cheez Whiz Original with real cheese flavor; however, when we got to the grocery, we came across Cheez Whiz Milky Delight. Though it was new to us, we picked it instead of the Original Cheez Whiz. When we tasted it, we also love it!
Cheez Whiz …
Sobe Life Water
Sobe Life Water is a big joke as far as I’m concerned. I mean, the bottle is pretty, and the advertisements are appealing, but come on! It is an insult to our intelligence to pay that much money for water that tastes like it has some strange …
Dannon Frusion Smoothie: Peach
Even though I’ve seen a recent spike in popularity for the Dannon frusion smoothies, they’ve been around for some time. I didn’t really start drinking them until my grandma started buying them for me, which originally were purchased solely for herself but she found that she didn’t like them …
Best Choice Bran Cereal with Raisins
I am one of those shoppers who is not afraid to try a generic product if the price is right! One product I recently tried was our store’s generic version of Raisin Bran Cereal, best Choice Bran Cereal with Raisins. I am the only one in my …

Eggo BakeShop Swirlz Strawberry
Remember those ads on tv in the early 90’s for PopTarts? They basically said that PopTarts were a complete breakfast. Of course I never believed it. Well, I wouldn’t rely soley on Eggo BakeShop Swirlz for breakfast to get me through the day. However, it’s excellent as brunch, a …

Innocent Smoothies - kiwi, apples and lime flavour
If you don’t like bannanas or simply want to try a smoothie without bannanas in, then try the Kiwi,apples and lime smoothie from Innocent. I have tried making smoothies from home but more often than not, Innocent smoothies work out cheaper and it’s most definitely easier than making …
Smuckers Chocolate syrup
I purchased this syrup at the store on a whim. It is a small bottle and they were able to fit it into a little display next to the ice cream freezer. I had not seen any advertisement for it nor had I heard much about it before …
Salazar Bakery goodies
Tomorrow is a new day, specifically the first day of the year for the Chinese people and this is the time where most of the Chinese celebrate with family, and friends. Well for us, we only spent our time at home watching a couple of series and DVDs.
Yesterday we …
Cadbury Chocolates
When it comes to chocolate I want to be branded, a too sweet chocolate is not my typed. I like a chocolate with a balance sweet taste and a crunchy peanut on it. I have bought a lot of chocolates but I am a fan of Cadbury’s chocolate which …
Food Club Blueberry Waffles
My daughter loves blueberry waffles and, since they are the only thing I can get her to eat before school each morning, I usually keep a box in the freezer.
I recently bought a box from the brand Food Club and honestly have not been overly impressed with it.
First of …
100 Grand candy bar
Recently, I purchased one of those candy combination packages that you find at a warehouse store. These are great values as a rule and that’s why I tend to buy them from time to time. This particular one included a few 100 Grand candy bars, which is …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Strawberry Cheesecake
I find this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Strawberry Cheesecake to be reasonably decent in terms of texture and flavor, although I personally prefer the taste and texture of a homemade cheesecake or one that is sold ready made at the grocery store. The reason for my preferences is …
