We were staying in Florida recently with family, and decided to go out for a meal one evening. As there were several young kids in our household, we decided that pancakes would be a popular choice. That was great with me, as pancakes are amongst my favourite …

My family are avid chocolate eaters! We simply can’t pass up a delicious piece of chocolate or anything that is chocolate flavored. One of our favorite chocolate treats is a good batch of brownies. While doing my routine grocery shopping I came across Ghirardelli Brownie Mix and decided that …

In the tough economic times, fast food places have value menu items of all kinds. It’s amazing what you can find on one of these specialty menus today. The focus of this particular review, however, is the Burger King Value Menu Sausage Biscuit.
Burger King offers several items …

The Cloverhill Bakery Cherry Cheese Danish is a danish that at first, I did not care for too much, but after my first one, the taste began to grow on me. While I cannot say that I am not positively crazy about this danish variety, I can say that …

Today I decided to buy myself a cheap box drink with my lunch at a supermarket in order to save money, and I ended up getting the “New Splash Funberry Flavoured Juice Drink”. It was only a few hours later after I had it, that I finally realized that …

I started to love eating chips and junk foods when I worked as a full time call center agent. My work required me to stay awake at night, yes we work during graveyard shift. I don’t smoke, so I prefer to sip a coffee or to eat chips whenever …

I was rather surprised to find that Mrs. Field’s cookie shop in my local mall, wanted four dollars for five cookies! Now, I could perhaps understand this price if the cookies were cake-sized, but rather, they are more morsel-like in size. So, while their marketing ploy to …

The Mcchicken sandwich from McDonalds is my favorite from their value menu. Obviously a price of dollar one is very attractive. But even more than that I like the taste of this sandwich very much. The constituents of Mcchicken are very simple. The chicken patty is very soft and …

I am big on any ham and cheese product, so I was glad that Barber Foods had the Cordon Bleu chicken breast. Ham, cheese, and a chicken breast? You can’t go wrong in that department as far as I’m concerned.
Again, two chicken breasts in a box and the same …

I went and bought a 12-pack of Shasta Creme Soda yesterday, pretty much on compulsion as I saw it in the store and thought, hey, I haven’t had creme soda for quite a while. As I brought it home I noticed my 12-pack was dripping; I opened it and …

Here in Europe Oreo cookies are not as widespread as in USA. Most of us have not even seen an Oreo cookie until a few years ago when they finally arrived in our stores. But Oreo cookies are still not part of the regular cookies that you can easily find …

I don’t normally complain about the food I get from Cousin’s Subs. Normally the service is somewhat questionable but the food makes it worth it.
But, I tried their chili last night and have to say I wasn’t very impressed with it.
I picked it up looking for something warm to …

Stouffer’s Chicken Asiago is a pretty tasty sandwich that I enjoy having for lunch. What makes it tasty? Well, for one, the grilled chicken is quite enjoyable. It is very tender and it has a good flavor to it. Then, there are sun dried tomatoes on top of the …

The first time I had a taste of marmite was that when a friend of mine gave me toasted bread with marmite and butter on top and my first impression was that I don’t like it at all. When I saw it the first time I thought it …

While shopping last week, I ran across a new Jimmy Dean product called Breakfast Entrees. The one I chose to sample was the scrambled eggs with bacon and cheese, plus diced apples, and seasoned hash browns. They have the exact same combination with sausage instead of bacon, …

I just bought a new type, for me, water drink called Life Water, from Safeway. I must say that the fruit tastes are much stronger than those in Propel Bottled health water, or in PowerAde. If you are one who prefers a stronger taste of the fruit in your …

The Creme Egg Twisted bar from Cadbury’s has been out since last year but I have only just noticed it so I had to try it. I adore Creme Eggs which I am sure you will be familiar with —“ white and yellow sugary fondant within thick, egg-shaped …

The Asian Noodle Stir Fry is not one of my favorite dishes by Amy’s Meals. The portion is to small and it does not fill me up. To me this makes it a bad meal because it is 300 calories. I do not like that because I would …

Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill is a sandwich that is, admittedly, huge. The large chicken breast will really make your eyes go wide! Unfortunately, I just did not care for this sandwich too much because I am not a great big fan of grilled chicken. I much prefer the …

40% lower fat? Jeez, I’d hate to see how fatty the regular Smithfield bacon is! I was really disappointed in this bacon. I had recently watched a “Good Eats” episode on the food network in which Alton Brown went over the different types of bacon and how to cook …

The Vanilla Classic ice cream from New Zealand Ice Cream was one of my favorites of all the varieties I tried from the company. Vanilla ice cream isn’t my favorite, nor does it fall anywhere on my list of favorite flavors. I typically like basic flavors without a lot …

Earlier on in my life, I wasn’t really a lover of mayonnaise. It was only until recently though that I’ve come to appreciate mayonnaise in a good sandwich. I’ve also realised that not all mayonnaise are as good as others in terms of taste especially after trying quite a …

Anyone with a lot of food sensitivities who’s trying to stay fit knows how difficult it can be trying to find protein bars or shakes that do not contain gluten, diary or soy as one of their main ingredients. I’m one of those people, so I’m always examining the …

These days I like to have a good —˜proper’ butter in the house, not just one of those —˜like butter but it’s not actually butter’ spreads. A good butter really makes a difference to sandwiches, jacket potatoes and cooking generally and I have come to appreciate that. …

I love Asian foods, so when I bought the Tai Pei Combination Fried Rice I was expecting an authentic-tasting rice dish. What I got did not match the appetizing picture on the box. It was not what I expected, and I felt rather cheated out of $3 and a …

The Cloverhill Bakery - Cream Cheese Coffee Cake is a cake that I find to be alright, although not something that I find myself craving too often. Perhaps if I enjoyed cream cheese more, I would desire to purchase this cake on a more regular basis, but since I …

Yes, it is true I like Big Butt’s. Well, at least I like Leinenkugel’s Big Butt. This is a great example of a doppelbock style beer made by the Wisconsin microbrewery. As we move from the heavy winter beers towards the lighter beers of spring, doppelbock style beers will …

I used to purchase these Great Value: Original Potato Chips before I tried the ripple potato chips one day, and since I tried the ripple chips, I have not purchased these since and I do not see myself purchasing them again. While there is really nothing wrong with these …

I love this Alaska Yoghurt Drink. They are offered in different flavors and they really taste good. It brings a unique fruity and milky taste in one tetra pack. Indeed when I first tasted this I knew that even my little ones would love this. I’ve tasted different brands …

As I have stated before, I love greek yogurt with an a burning passion. There is just something about the creamy thickness that pulls me in and takes me way to a blissful place. Almost every brand out there have their own line of greek yogurt with their own …

Jell-o Pudding - Tapioca is quite good, although I am not as crazy about the tapioca variety as I am about the vanilla-chocolate swirl variety. The tapioca variety is certainly still good too, and the flavor is quite authentic as well as strong! The texture is pretty creamy and …

Breakfast is complete if you have pancakes for the kids. I also like having pancake for breakfast because it is a good choice instead of going for eating old-fashioned bread. I like wheat bread or oven fresh sliced white bread with cream jelly but nothing can top a freshly …

My wife realizes I’m not a big Jeff Gordon fan so, as a joke, she couldn’t resist buying me the energy drink named after him. After trying them, I’ll be willing to admit they aren’t half bad. But, you won’t see me looking for them at the grocery store …

My daughter recently got a can of chocolate covered cashews from the brand Eillien’s. They were supposed to be her treat as long as she shared a few of them. But, as much as it makes me seem like a bad person, I have to admit I have eaten …

I decided to make chili dogs last night and, in the interest of not spending too much (since I didn’t get paid until today), I ended up buying a bargain brand can of chili; Our Family.
When I purchased this, I remembered buying it before. But, I couldn’t remember much …

I would say that these Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes Snack Cakes - Chocolate are about average in terms of taste, and above-average in creativity. The tree cakes are covered with chocolate fudge and feature white creme frosting serving as the garland and red and green sprinkles while on …

The Harvest Hill Ultra Moist Yellow Cake Mix can be used to make either a full-sized cake or several cupcakes. This yellow cake mix is sold at Dollar Tree stores for one dollar. There’s a reason I like this cake mix more than what can be found in grocery …

I have just recently discovered these really nice biscuits from the McVitie range, called Cafe Noir. These are flat, oblong biscuits about the size of malted milk biscuits and they consist of a hard, plain biscuit topped with a thick layer of hard, coffee flavoured icing. They …

Campbell’s Gardennay Autumn Carrot Soup is absolutely wonderful!
It tastes like it is homemade or from a very nice restaurant.
It comes in a tetra pak and tastes so fresh it’s as if it was just made.
It has a rich flavour and is very nutritious.
It is a bit more expensive than …

Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit is a very tasty breakfast sandwich that alone is not sufficiently filling, but with two, boy am I set until lunch! The biscuit is a buttermilk one that is very soft and flaky and the chicken is tender and crunchy and loaded with flavor! The two …

Koestlin Saltas peanuts are actually salted sticks filled with natural peanuts. I really like peanuts in everything so when I found out that they started making sticks with peanuts filling I had to try them out. I don’t usually eat sticks but since they started making these with peanuts …

I gave these pastry crisps a try one day when sitting in class, listening to the teacher give a lecture. My friend shared them with me, as we both missed breakfast that morning. They were utterly new to me, I had previously never seen the product before. My friend …

Because of a recommendation from a clerk at the grocery store, I decided to try out the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme Milk Shake product. Hershey’s individual milk shakes are the best ones I’ve found out there right now that you can buy at a store. No, they …

New York Style - Panetini Garlic Parmesan is a pretty taste topping to add to my salads, although it also makes for a flavorful snack item. What it is is little pieces of toast that have been baked in an oven and seasoned with garlic and Parmesan flavoring. I …

My husband is a food lover and he always insists me to prepare different kinds of food for him. Even my kids love to taste different kinds of food. Last week I tried Maggie noodles for the first time. I prepared it in the evening as …

The McVities Jamaica Ginger Cake is a classic as far as I am concerned. I remember it as a favorite from my childhood and I enjoy it now as much as I did then. As it says on the packet, the recipe has stayed the same for …

One of my favorite TV dinner brands is Marie Callendar’s. This is going to sound weird, but these dinners don’t really taste like TV dinners, for the most part. Just because they go in the microwave doesn’t automatically make them bad. These dinners have a homestyle taste that I …

Why I like this product so much? There are so many reasons I guess but I think that the main one is because it brings me back to my childhood when these chocolate eggs were really rare and it was a big feat when I got one. The only …

I am a tea lover. Well, you can even call me a tea addict. I love my cup of tea. There is in fact not a time when I would have refused a offer for tea and my day does not feel right if I didn’t start …

There are not much dark chocolates in India, and thus, most people are unaware of their delicious taste. I was really happy to know that Cadbury, one of the biggest chocolate companies of India launched “Bourneville”, their first dark chocolate. As soon as I saw the advertisement, I felt …
