Datex 3600 Calorie Emergency Food Bars
Updating an emergency kit is a bit fun, since I get to finally try out my near outdated emergency food stores. I opened up a package of Datex last night, and I seriously had pictures of the old 1940’s naval food rations, dry and tasteless. But I was so …
Sobe Lifewater Pacific Coconut Beverage
Sobe Lifewater Pacific Coconut Beverage is a beverage I picked up one afternoon to top off my quick lunch. Given that I am a very big fan of Sobe beverage, and coconut water I did not hesitate to grab a bottle.
Coconut Water has become one of the trends in …
Tofuking Northern Tofu
Since I decided to convert to be a vegetarian having a tofu in almost all of my dishes at home makes my cooking even more appealing most especially that I particularly make lots of dishes that need tofu on it as a good substitute for a red meat or …
Fritos
Fritos are the original corn chips, just like it says on all of their bright yellow and red packages. They’ve been a staple in our home for decades. Though they have different varieties and sizes now, I stick with the original size and scoop most of the …
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes are, in my opinion, quite poor and I most certainly will not be purchasing these pancakes again. The reason I find the pancakes to be positively poor is because of the blueberries. When I first looked at the picture on the box, I felt that …
Tong Garden Lite N Natural Barbeque Sunflower Seed Kernel
First of all, I never know that a sunflower has a seed. I am aware of peanut and squash seed but not with sun flower. I was shopping for food last night and I saw a pack of Tong Garden. I was startled because it stated on the pack …
Entenmann’s Frosted Pop’ems
Entenmann’s Frosted Pop’ems are essentially small and compacted donuts that lack an opening in the center. Only one or two bites are required before these pop’ems are no more. They are quite small and ideal for snacking. Well, they would be ideal if the frosted pop’ems had a better …
Boulder Canyon All Natural Malt Vinegar & Sea Salt
Boulder Canyon All Natural Malt Vinegar & Sea Salt are really not healthy - but then again, we are talking about potato chips here, and even the “healthiest” potato chip is by no means healthy or recommended for consumption more than once or twice a week. The reason is …
Wilkins Distilled water
This is my trusted distilled water for my baby and there is no switching to other distilled water for me. The price of this distilled water is very fit on the budget. I use this water for my baby for his milk. There is no need …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Neapolitan
I will not be purchasing Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Neapolitan a second time because all three flavors that are a part of this triple combination are really quite bland compared to their premium ice cream counterparts. The vanilla is not nearly as good as the all-natural vanilla, the …
True North Snacks
I just recently discovered True North Snacks. They are so good. They have a wide variety of different nut snacks. They not only taste amazing but they are healthy for you. They are all natural. My favorites are the Almond Clusters and the Pecan Almond Peanut Clusters. I can …
Betty Crocker’s Tuna Helper - Creamy Noodle
A simple meal preparation - the instructions given for this product are very simple and to the point. The preparation time, in my opinion should be changed. While the recommended cooking time ensures that the pasta contained in the dish is fully cooked, the overall appearance and consistency could …
Wendy’s - Grilled Chicken Go Wrap
Wendy’s - Grilled Chicken Go Wrap is a wrap that I tried once to see if perhaps I would like it enough to alternate between this wrap and the Homestyle Chicken Wrap, since this wrap is a little healthier than the Homestyle wrap, but I just did not care …
Selecta Coffee Almond Cookie Ice Cream
This local brand of ice cream from the Philippines is very delicious and it’s brand is named Selecta. The flavor is Coffee Almond Cookies and it has cookies bits halves and wholes, almond halves and wholes, and premium coffee ice cream all blended together.
For a 1.5 liter of ice …
Great Value Extra Raisin Bran
I couldn’t find my favorite cereal at my local Wal-Mart. I freaked out, afraid that Wal-Mart had discontinued their Great Value Extra Raisin Bran Cereal.
I found it a few weeks later in new packaging. I was relieved, but I soon pondered why Wal-Mart had changed it. Did they ruin …
Banquet Frozen Dinner Turkey with mashed potatoes and peas
I purchased this frozen dinner, what would have been called a “tv dinner” when I was a kid out of a fit of nostalgia. My husband was out of town and I wanted to relive a taste from my youth. The brand I remember from childhood did …
Great Value Family Size Tea
I have recently tried Great Value Family Size Tea, and I love it. I bought a smaller box, priced at $1.25, containing 24 individually wrapped tea bags. There is a large box available as well, twice the size if not more, and I think I will get that one …
Paton’s Macadamia Nuts Covered in Rich Dark Chocolates
I received a box of Paton’s Macadamia Nuts Covered in Rich Dark Chocolate as a christmas gift from my cousin who vacationed in Beijing. The box had a big sign that read China with a picture of the Great Wall which made me believe that this was made in …
Jacobs Monarch instant cofee Kraft
I started drinking coffee when I was about 20 years old because I had exams at University. I usually take mocha coffee but about a month ago I started experimenting with instant coffee powders. On of those that I’ve tried was Jacobs Monarch instant coffee Kraft. It comes in …
Kraft Miracle Whip Sandwich Spread
Who doesn’t like mayonnaise? I’ve grown to like mayonnaise because of its versatility. But having a plain mayonnaise, at some point, brings about dullness. There’s one I’ve discovered, which is more than your ordinary mayonnaise—” Kraft Miracle Whip Sandwich Spread. What makes it different from a typical one, Kraft …
Post Cocoa Pebbles
Post Cocoa Pebbles, like Post Fruit Pebbles, has artwork of Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble on the box. I recall getting more enjoyment out of watching reruns of The Flinstones than eating this cereal. While I definitely wouldn’t call this cereal horrible, it never really was one that I …
Dolci Frutta: Hard Chocolate Shell
For my Valentine’s Day, my friend and I decided to make chocolate covered strawberries for dessert, so I went out to get the chocolate that we would use as the hard shell. My sister always makes chocolate covered strawberries and warned me that there is a brand of the …

Since my husband lost his job a few months ago, my family and I are always looking for Ways to save money on our grocery bill. One of the best ways we have found to save money is to buy generic versions of the higher priced store brands we …
Sonny Cappuccino
I have 5 different discounts near my house and that actually means that I rarely buy stuff that isn’t on discount, that was the case with Sonny Cappuccino too. I saw that 350g of this cappuccino cost only 1,95 Euro, on discount of course, although usually I pay that …
Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack
I found the Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack online on Alice.com. These little apple snacks cost me $1.89 for a little 0.67 ounce pack —“ but, if you buy dried fruit, you know that none if it is cheap. Dried fruit is …
Smart Ones - Three Cheese Ziti Marinara
The Smart Ones - Three Cheese Ziti Marinara is one of my favorite semi-healthy frozen meal lunches. You can usually find it in the grocery store for under $2.00 and it is on sale quite often. Also, there are a lot of coupons floating around for Smart …
Rockstar Burner
Rockstar Energy drinks definitely seem to be leasing the way in the energy drink field — and Rockstar Burner is one of the reasons.
I love energy drinks, but I hate the fact that there is so much sugar. Sometimes I just want a boost without having to worry …
Chicken Kebabs
For those of you out there who has yet to try out eating kebabs, you should. You shouldn’t miss out eating kebabs at all. Kebabs are like burger types, but you can use a special bread-filing type, and it is very nice and tasty.
You can choose …
Spumoni Ice Cream from Edy’s
The Spumoni flavored ice cream from Edy’s brand is a flavor that looks very appealing during advertising, but does not really deliver the sort of kick that I had expected it to. The three flavors in this ice cream sounded as though they would be a delicious explosion of …

Entenmann’s 8 Glazed Buttermilk Donuts
I find Entenmann’s 8 Glazed Buttermilk Donuts to be an enjoyable treat once and a great while. While these donuts are not quite as soft or fresh as the donuts sold individually in the cases, eight do come in a box and at a good value, too. Plus, the …
McDonald’s Angus Snack Wrap - Bacon and Cheese
On a spontaneous whim today, I decided to drop by McDonald’s, which I almost never do, and try one of their Angus Snack Wraps. There were three versions available and the one I went with was the Bacon and Cheese. It looked good and sounded tasty.
This product …
Sarsi Drink
I loved drinking carbonated drink but since I don’t like to much strong I prefer taking root beer. But when I tasted Sarsi that is like a root beer, I switch on this beverage.
Sarsi has been in the market for many years, I never expected that this affordable soft …
Beer Chips
Beer Chips was such a cute little novelty that when I saw them on the store shelves, I knew I had to buy them. Maybe it’s just me, but the thought of chips flavored like beer was just something I couldn’t pass up. The chips themselves come in a …
Hawaiian Punch Singles To Go-Fruit Punch
I love these Hawaiian Punch Singles! I wouldn’t say they’re the same as the regular hawaiian punch, but the flavor is close enough. To be precise, these are the fruit punch, but Hawaiian Punch has these in several other varieties as well. They come …

Warm Delights Make a Great Gift, Comfort Food
Recently, I have been giving myself the treat of a Warm Delights snack cake on Saturday afternoons. It’s a once a week treat that is inexpensive and tastes good, but last Saturday I came up with a new reason to keep them on my shelf–emergency comfort food.
My upstairs neighbor …

Marie Callender’s Beef Tips in Mushroom Sauce

I am a tea lover and I have taste many kinds of tea of many brands. But the tea, which I always prefer to have, or the tea, which I always love to sip, is the Taj mahal tea. This is the very popular brand of tea, …
Fox’s Creams Golden Crunch biscuits
The Fox’s name is one that I find I can usually rely on to give me biscuits that are both tasty and decent value, and the same is true of the Golden Crunch variety. These are not the cheapest biscuits around, weighing in at around 89p for a 200 …
Great Day Breakfast: Original Mini Piggies ‘n Pancakes
Great Day Breakfast: Original Mini Piggies ‘n Pancakes is not something I will purchase again. The reason I will not purchase this breakfast meal again is because I did not care too much for the sausage that was contained within the pancake batter. The sausage did not offer much …
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 …
