I have consumed sodas most of my life. In an effort to restrict my calorie intake, I switched from sweetened soft drinks to artificially sweetened soft drinks but I reevaluated that decision as I investigated the use of artificial sweeteners. It seems, according to several studies, that artificial sweeteners …

Normally, I love Jimmy Dean’s line of frozen food. This is particularly true when the meal includes sausage. As far as I’m concerned, Jimmy Deann produces the very best pork sausage, whether it be the big roll or the link variety. Not too spicy, but not too bland, JD’s …

San Mig Coffee has 4 flavors (Mild, Strong, Extra Strong and Original) offered to coffee lovers. Contrary to the more famous instant coffee choice, Nescafe is more aromatic than the San Mig Coffee. I believe what makes a coffee enticing is the smell it leaves around you, the smell …

Product Description: Can of condensed chicken broth. My wife and I found it at our local Aldi store for around 60 cents a couple weeks ago and used it yesterday.
What I liked about this product: I don’t use chicken broth all that much. But, it comes in handy the …

Sometimes generic or store-brand products are just as good, if not better, than the big name brands. This is the case with Jewel brand Ginger Ale, which is sold at all Jewel-Osco grocery stores in both two-liter bottles and 12-packs. Just yesterday, I compared the price os …

I am in love with Culver’s and this place, with it’s prime location is one of my favorite spots to hit. Ever since I was a little younger, I remember going out to Culver’s and getting their Butterburger. Apparently, they were recently named the top fast food brand of …

In my family everybody likes Tiramisu, well everybody except me, so they make it all the time. Unfortunately to make good Tiramisu you need a good Mascarpone and mascarpone is always really expensive, usually 200g costs some 4-5 euros depending on the brand of it.
About a year ago I …

The blueberry pies sold at and only at Kroger in the bakery section are most definitely delicious in a number of wonderful ways! I do not have a single complaint about this pie, aside from the minor complaint regarding the size of the pie and the accompanying not so …

After many miles of hiking it is common for me and my three kids to want a snack to help boost our energy levels back up. One of the best snacks I have discovered for carrying in my pack is Hershey’s really nuts trail mix. It only weighs 1.8 …

Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets were always my favorite out of the whole Tastykake line of baked goodies. I have eaten the peanut butter Kandy Kakes and the chocolate cup cakes, but I think there is something about the Butterscotch Krimpets that makes them the best. I love the flavor of …

There are so many things you can make with Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup. I find this soup very versatile and have been adding it to many of my best recipes for years now. I have tried other brands of cream of mushroom soup however, always come back to …

Why they call this product “chocolate ice cream” and not just “chocolate” is a mystery to me. It’s a creamy chocolate drink, and more closely comparable to a chocolate milkshake than chocolate ice cream. At any rate, this is a creamy chocolate nutrition drink that isn’t quite as good …

I must admit I never was a smoothie lover. I do like fruit and juices, but not really the texture of smoothies. However, I was convinced to try some Naked smoothie flavors by my teenage daughter and after a few purchases I have decided that Mighty …

I fully admit to having a love of Jelly Belly jellybeans. They were the first (and maybe only) company to make Dr. Pepper flavored jellybeans and they have a lot of flavors that you just can’t find anywhere else. They are now making suckers, which they call Lollibeans. I …

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 …

Geeta’s premium mango chutney is authentic Indian chutney made from fresh mangoes and is sweet-smelling which I’ve bought from Tesco supermarket. I actually bought it this month to try it as a dip for the papadum that I’ve made at home. One thing I could personally say …

After I was introduced to the regular Swiss Miss Hot Milk Chocolate mix, I had started to look on the grocery store shelves for other varieties of this mix. Believe it or not, even though I am a hot chocolate lover, I guess I am a bit of a …

These chocolate chip Teddy Grahams are almost as good as the chocolate Teddy Grahams! What I really like about these Teddy Grahams is that there are two flavors to be tasted, much like with regular chocolate chip cookies. There’s the chocolate chips, of course, but there’s also the cookie …

I am quite a fan of the Schogetten range of chocolate, which is easily available, at least in most of Europe, from Aldi and Lidl stores. In my case I tend to go to Aldi, but that is simply because it is the closer of the two to where …

I’ve been a coffee lover since I started working straight out of college. Since I’m not used to offices where the air cons are adjusted too low for me to tolerate, one of the things I do to warm myself up is by drinking mugs of coffee. We own …

As I said before I am not fond of eating Spicy Foods. Spicy foods leave my nose to have colds. However, I am fond of eating Pancit Canton and I only trust Lucky Me with that. As you trust a certain brand, it do not gives justice if you …

I couldn’t resist trying this frozen panini when I saw it in the supermarket. I’ve never had an actual Philly cheese steak, but I’ve always wanted to try one, and I thought this might be the closest I could come for a while.
This panini takes steak and combines …

I first heard this Pinakurat Vinegar from my mom when she got home one day from my aunt’s house. She told me that my aunt bought this new vinegar from the local market and tried it for dipping fish crackers and chicharon. She said it tasted good and that …

My addiction with dark chocolates started after I read an article that dark chocolates are healthy. I also heard the same statement from a famous dermatologist here in my country. So because I have a sweet tooth, I shifted my cravings for chocolates to dark chocolates. Among the health …

Many people find snacking on fruits/chips/candy to be an integral and enjoyable part of their day. Myself included - though I typically get lost in sweet and, unfortunately, unhealthy snacks. Recently, I was searching through the pantry and uncovered a bag of Archer Farms Strawberry Mango real fruit twists …

Breyers Snickers Caramel Swirl Chunk is a decent ice cream that combines the chocolaty, crunchy traits of a Snickers bar with smooth vanilla ice cream and caramel swirls. I’m sure that I would like this ice cream more if it had more pieces of Snickers candy bars spread throughout …

I have been a coffee drinker my whole adult life. In fact, it was I who introduced coffee-drinking to my husband sixteen years ago and we are still enjoying the habit up to now.
We only have one brand eversince, Nescafe Instant …

I like my green tea, and specifically Jasmine green tea for its delicate floral aroma and flavor. I’ve been drinking the stuff for at least ten years now. I have also become hooked on the effects of the caffeine in green tea which is different from coffee. I don’t …

I will tell you a little secret as long as you promise not to tell my kids. I love to find sneaky ways to make healthy dinners. My kids are actually pretty good about eating healthy but there are times I have to trick them in to it. I …

I have had some of this Classic Vegetable Condensed Soup from Batchelors for my supper tonight and it was totally delicious. I have had a bit of a craze on vegetable soup lately and this one is particularly tasty, one of the best soups in a can out …

Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake is a pretty decent side dish, although it is by no means perfect. By that, I mean the diced potatoes come across as not tasting fresh. if you have ever tasted boxed potatoes, I think you will discover that this potato bake shares a little …

I recently decided to try out one of the new foods at Jack in the Box that may or may not continue to be part of their menu. The item in question is the Turkey, Bacon & Cheddar Grilled Sandwich. I love turkey sandwiches as well as …

Stouffer’s Grilled Herb Chicken is a meal that I was unfortunately disappointed in. When I decided to give this frozen dinner a try, I had hopes that the herbs added to the grilled chicken would result in a positively delightful taste sensation that was unlike any other grilled chicken …

Who doesn’t love chocolates? Everybody does! No matter how we know too much of it is bad for us, we couldn’t resist it. There is one particular brand of chocolate I love, and had always loved since I was little — a candy-coated chocolates shaped like mini-pellets, sort of …

With an overwhelming sweet tooth threatening to overcome my diet’s restrictions, I made a beeline for the nearest vending machine, hoping for some kind of fruity low-guilt candy.

I really have got to do some food shopping. I got home today for lunch and realized there wasn’t anything to eat. So, I ended up making some of the Banquet Chicken Tenders I picked up for my daughter.
They were OK but they weren’t great.
I only buy this brand because …

I did not find anything particular special about these Little Debbie Be My Valentine Iced Brownies. The only difference between these brownies and the regular brownies made by Little Debbie. The only differences that exist are the red food coloring that turn the chocolate fudge red and the white …

I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …

I love snacking on nuts. I love them all—peanuts, sunflower seeds, cashews, almonds, etc. Aside from being delicious, they are also said to be healthy and enhances the brain. So when I passed by the Frnuit stall in the Wellcome supermarket in Hong Kong, I couldn’t …
