Market Pantry Saltine Crackers
Saltine crackers are a pretty basic food, something that I would think is pretty difficult to mess up. I mean, how much more basic can you get than a simple cracker with a bit of salt on it? Somehow, however, Market Pantry (a generic brand sold at …
Samurai Takoyaki Balls
Samurai is another type of restaurant or food stall that has been around the country for years now. I remember buying the famous Takoyaki balls they offer and I loving it when I was a kid. I really did enjoy the fried Squid flavored balls topped with sweet and …
Sobe elixir: Fuji Apple Cranberry Lean
Sobe is one of my favorite brands of beverage. I enjoy the uniqueness of them and the natural ingredient and benefits they deliver in each bottle. I especially enjoy their product line of Elixirs. I spotted them one day in my neighborhood Albertsons, in the beverage section. Instead of …
7-11 Purple S’Creme Slurpee
Recently, 7-11 announced a new Slurpee flavor, and being the addict that I am, I had to check it out. The concept is that the icy treat itself is purple but the flavor is that of vanilla — or more specifically vanilla creme. My review of the …
Fruti Roll Ups Variety Pack
Fruit Roll Ups have been around for years and they are by far one of my favorite snacks. I can eat these treats like nobody’s business and if I am not careful I will polish off a variety box in about 2 hours. I really like the varietyu …
Dove Milk Chocolate
I’ve never been a big fan of Dove Chocolates, mainly because they tend to be expensive and for no good reason that I can see. I’ve never ate the ice cream or tried any of their candies until this last week. I was standing in line at the grocery …
Asian Noodle Stir Fry: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
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 …
Oishi Ridges
I just love eating Oishi Ridges. My whole family especially the kids love buying this product. Oishi Ridges has lots of different flavors but our favorites are cheese, cheese and garlic and plain salted. I am not a huge fan of the barbecue flavor though. I like the way …
American Lays onion and cheese flavored Potato Chips
American Lays onion and cheese flavored Potato Chips are just the kind of packet which I could savor any time of the day. Frito-Lays are one of the best producers of potato chips In India and the variety and range they have is just remarkable. Every new season they …
Kernel Season’s Nacho Cheddar Seasoning
While you can find Kernel Season’s seasonings near the popcorn and other popcorn seasonings in most stores, the Kernel Season’s seasoning shakers don’t actually say “popcorn seasoning” on them. That’s because these seasonings can be sprinkled over more than just popcorn. I’ve used them on various kinds of potatoes, …
305 Cigarettes
I have recently tried a new brand of cigarettes called 305’s. This is a brand that seems to be a local thing to Florida, since I had never seen them prior to moving down here. 305 cigarettes are manufactured by a company called the Dosal Tobacco Comany from Miami, Florida. …
Lean Cuisine Chicken Enchilada Suiza
Lean Cuisine fills a niche in the American life. I cannot tell you if they sell it anywhere else because when I am abroad I don’t go looking for frozen food. You eat a Lean Cuisine usually because you are watching your weight and are either too …
Bling H2O
Water for thrust or for luxury..?
A new arrival in bottle water is Bling which cost $40 for 750 ml. The bottles are available in glass as well as plastic bottles. Baby Bling Frosted Bottle Case cost $480 (Case of 24 375ml Bottles). While Bling H2O Plastic Bottle Case (Case of …
Jiffy Natural Crunchy Peanut Butter
I am a fan of the easy breakfast, or dinner, and because of this I often opt for a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich. I have tried many brands and recently have started trying to get the kind that is healthier for me. I find the natural …
Ball Park Beef Franks
Hot Dogs! Armour Hot Dogs! The dogs kids love to eat!
Oops, wrong brand. However, I used to love Armour and while it’s still a great brand, several years ago I tried Ball Park Beef Franks and was swayed to the dark side. Okay, seriously, there …
Werther’s Original Chocolate Caramel
This is another new chocolate product from the Werther’s Original brand and they are milk chocolates with a soft caramel centre. These are very gorgeous although they are very sweet and might be too much for you if you do not have such a sweet tooth. That …
Sainsbury’s Dark Roast Freeze Dried Instant Coffee
This Dark Roast Freeze Dried Instant Coffee from Sainsbury’s own brand is indeed, as it says on the label, dark and intense, which incidentally is how I like my men. This is lovely coffee, especially for me as I like a good strong cup which is smooth as …
Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream
Growing up, I was a chocolate junkie. I still love chocolate, but I think I’m more finicky these days and I like a bit of variety with the chocolate. For example, instead of chocolate on chocolate, I prefer a white cake with chocolate frosting, or a chocolate …
Athenos Hummus Original flavor
I’m a person who enjoys eating vegetables. Usually on a daily basis, I eat baby carrots, broccoli, cucumbers, celery and sometimes a handful of raw green leafy salad. With the stock vegetables, I like to dip them in dips or dressing, usually low fat dressing, a squeezed of …
Del Monthe Fruit Chillers Strawberry Snow Storm Tubes
I absolutely love the Fruit Chillers product line made by Del Monte! Fruit Chillers are especially delicious in the summer time, when the temperatures outside are pushing one-hundred degrees. I just stick one of these tubes in the freezer before I go to sleep at night, and the next …
LeanPockets Subs Sandwiches
I generally get Lean Pockets for times when I just want to get a quick, easy lunch and don’t feel like going to a lot of trouble.
They recently came out with a new product-Subs. They are a lot more “sandwich-like,” in my estimation. The bread is softer and …
Fruit2day Strawberry Orange
I normally do not like commercials and do not run out to buy things because I saw them on TV, but that is exactly what I did with this Fruit2day product. I did not make a special trip, but when I was at the grocery store with money …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bar Chocolatey Chip
I personally do not care for this particular protein bar even though I enjoy chocolate chip cookies. For one thing, these do not taste quite like chocolate chip cookies in my opinion because they are harder and chewier than chocolate chips cookies and the dough flavor is not quite …
Gevalia Coffee
I must admit that Gevalia Coffee is pretty good. The variety of flavors to choose from are pretty vast, and they obtain a great combination of dark, rich, and full body coffee products. In addition to that, the company offers special promotional deals where you can get …
Yamasa Zaru Soba Dipping Sauce
We got our Yamasa Zaru Soba dipping sauce at the local grocery (Robinson’s Metro East mall) for around Php 140. I’ve also seen some available at the grocery at Megamall and UniMart Greenhills. It is packaged in a 330ml bottle which has a sticker that says “Yamasa Zaru Soba …
Hidden valley Bacon and onion
Face it salad can be pretty boring, especially on nights that is all you are having. I recently purchased from my local retail grocery chain some Hidden Valley Salad Bacon and onion croutons. I absolutly loved them they were croutons mixed with bacon bits, and minced onion. The flavor …
Arrowhead Mills Creamy Organic Peanut Butter
Many peanut butters contain large amounts of pestisides. They also contain a carcinogenic mold called aflatoxin. I feel quite confidant that the Arrowhead Mills Organic Peanut Butter does not contain these “scary little aliens”, since they use only organic valencia peanuts. …
Silk Vanilla Iced Latte
I decided to give a new product from the Silk brand a try , called Silk Vanilla Ice Latte . A iced latte that is made from soy milk instead of traditional cows milk. As a fan of Silk I wasn’t purely hesitant since I know that silk delivers …
Hostess Limited Edition Donettes Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts
Hostess has really gone all out this autumn in producing pumpkin-flavored snacks and I can’t recall the company ever giving so many of its year-round snack cakes and treats a limited time pumpkin make-over. I’m not complaining though; the more foods pumped with pumpkin spice goodness, the better, for …
Sam’s Cola
At 58 cents for a two liter bottle, Sam’s Cola beats Coke and Pepsi by a long shot, pricewise. At the same time it has good, classic Cola taste that is not any worse, in my opinion, than the above mentioned popular brand names. Sam’s Cola wastes no money …
Naturally Select Tropical Trail Mix
Trail mix isn’t something that I can find reasonably priced, and really, I don’t know if $1.00 for a 7 ounce bag at the “Dollar Tree” is even worth the money, but I do know that I enjoy this tropical mix and that every package I purchase disappears relatively …

Steel Reserve beer
Steel Reserve is what’s known as a high gravity lager. It’s slow-brewed for at least 28 days and has 8.1% alcohol. This is a sweeter, darker kind of beer and I like it’s smooth flavor. It doesn’t have the bitterness or bad aftertaste that I’ve noticed with some other …
Kroger Value Grape Jelly
Kroger Value Grape Jelly is not the richest grape jelly that I have ever spread across my toast or bagel before, however, it is a decent grape jelly that still nonetheless enhances my enjoyment of toast and bagels with its sweet grape flavor. I purchase it when it goes …

Simon fresh light drink
Out working all day I was suddenly overcome with thirst. I wanted a long, low calorie, tasty, refreshing, no gas, unexpensive drink. I popped into a nearby supermarket and found it: Simon fresh light pineapple flavour. Real fruit juice and water, no preservatives, 1.5L and under 2 euros. Delicious. …
Quality Streets
These have got to be my favourite mixed chocolates of all time. When I was younger the only time we had Quality Streets was at Christmas when we would get a big tin in. I used to look forward to Christmas Eve when I would be allowed to open …
Farm Rich Cheese Sticks
Fairly crispy and excessively flavorful essentially describes how I feel about the cheese sticks made by Farm Rich. I have no doubt that these cheese sticks would come out crisper if I were to deep fry them - one of the three means of preparing the cheese sticks according …
Dairy milk eclairs crunch chocolates
Actually I am a chocolate lover. Along with my children even I love to eat a lot of chocolates sitting at home. I try all kind of chocolates, which I find new or interesting in the market. Once I bought the Dairy milk ‘clairs crunch chocolates …
Savoritz All Natural Soup, Chili & Chowder Crackers
Savoritz All Natural Soup, Chili & Chowder Crackers remind me very much of oyster crackers. They look very similar and taste similar, too. These little crackers are crunchy and lightly flavored with butter. I prefer to use them when I have soup or chili because of their size. If …
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Everything
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Everything is a tasty chip that is actually a pretzel. It is a pretzel that is in the shape of a chip and designed purposely that way for holding dip and making pretzels more convenient when it comes to dipping. What I most …
Tiffany’s Classic Digestive Wheat Biscuits
After tasting Tiffany’s Classic Digestive biscuits, the first word comes out from mouth is ‘wow! One more please’. Because they are too good to resist. These mouth watering biscuits are made of natural wheat flour and are good for health . As it does not contain any …
Corralejo Reposado Tequila
I love good tequila, and reposado is my favorite. When I saw this fun bottle, I had to give it a try, and I think it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever had.
For anyone who doesn’t know, a reposado tequila is sort of the middle grounds in terms …
Old London Bagel Spicy Cheddar Chips
The Old London Bagel Spicy Cheddar Chips disappointed me quite a bit. I did not find these chips to be particularly spicy or rich with cheddar. I actually felt that these bagel chips were really quite bland and unimpressive. There was not a hint of spiciness in these bagel …
Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar
Hershey’s line of products are yummy goodies, I have to say! Few days ago, I have satisfied the sweet-toothed side of me. The chocolates are courtesy of our managers right from the States. We have our discussion in the pantry and it ended with free chocolates and chips in …
Cottage Cheese
I decided to try large curd cottage cheese, for a change; we’ve been normally buying small curd, the Great Value version, which our whole family likes. I bought a smaller, 16 oz jar of large curd cheese; just like with the small curd version, it is also available in …
El Rancho Beef Loaf
We commonly eat canned foods during breakfast. It is the common choice aside from bacon and hotdogs. When I did my shopping at the supermarket, I picked this beef loaf from El Rancho. The brand is one of the famous companies which manufactures canned foods in the Philippines. I …
