My family never used to buy the Lasco Brand of Corned Beef, but would instead buy Grace corned beef for many years. However, some time ago they had begun to buy the Lasco Brand of corned beef. Now personally, I did not mind trying other brands even though I …

Hershey’s Cookies N Cream Milk is de-li-cious! I have tried a lot of breakfast shakes, milkshakes, protein shakes, and other milk products, but none stand a chance against Cookies N Cream. The taste is similar to that of the Hershey Cookies N Cream candy bar. Besides the …

For a spin on my favorite chocolate bar, I always enjoyed having a Nestle Crunch Bar. Made of milk chocolate and crisped rice, it was a crunchy alternative, and it was fun to eat.

Blue Bunny Banana Pops ended up being a not so wonderful treat for me. I enjoy banana-flavored foods and treats, but unfortunately, these Popsicles did not possess the rich and delicious banana flavor that I was quite hoping for. Although these Popsicles were not completely devoid of banana flavor, …

When it comes to Canadian beer, Lakeport Lager is about as cheap as you are going to get. Fortunately for fans of cheap beer, Lakeport’s taste is better than you’d expect given the price. While it might not be a premium beer, it is still a good …

For my whole life, I had avoided breakfast like the plague. I thought or suspected I was allergic to milk. But I never dreamed that I was just as allergic to eggs. I would wake up at 8AM, but I would not eat until noon. …

This pear flavored water variety by hint is not one that I will purchase again quite simply because I did not enjoy it very much. Maybe it is because I do not think that pears have a whole lot of flavor by themselves. However, added to this water, it …

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 …
