Blue Bell Key Lime Pie Half Gallon Ice Cream
When it comes to ice cream I’m up for trying new flavors, but the Blue Bell key lime half gallon would definitely prove to be a bit much for me.
Publix was having one of their sales, and I knew the prices on Blue Bell ice cream would have a …
Reese’s Puffs
When this cereal first appeared, it’s major advertising gimmick was that you were essentially eating peanut butter cups for breakfast. There’s some truth to this. The cereal is made with two kinds of puffs, some are made with Reese’s peanut butter and the others are made with Hershey’s …
Sobe Life Water
I first started drinking Sobe Life water as an alternative to help break the habit of drinking to much coffee and soda. Now I have mostly eliminated soda for Sobe. I do miss all that yummy soda, but the zero calories, no artificial sweeteners Sobe Life Water has versus soda, …

Arnott’s Shapes
A large, 300-gram bag of Arnott’s Shapes was given to me by a friend recently. It was the first time I saw and tasted this product as it has never really been available in the grocery stores I frequent: Shopwise and Waltermart, both in Makati City.
Arnott’s Shapes is …
Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry
I prefer the Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry compared to the Nature’s Path: Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastry. The reason I prefer the non-frosted over the frosted is because the non-frosted variety allows me to better appreciate and enjoy the blueberry flavor. Speaking of the blueberry flavor, I find the …
The Snack Factory - Garlic Pretzel Crisps
The Snack Factory - Garlic Pretzel Crisps are quite a treat to have, be it alone or with something. I like garlic, be it garlic bread or garlic butter and so on, and having garlic on these pretzels is just great. There is a rich garlic flavor that blends …
The Prepared Pantry Pure White Chocolate Chips

hint - Watermelon
The watermelon flavored water sold by hint is not one of my favorite drinks out of all the flavored water drinks sold by hint, but, I have tasted worse from the company, so I would have to say then that this flavor is just about average according to my …
Betty Crocker’s Buttermilk Complete Pancake mix
I hadn’t made pancakes in years before this past weekend when I decided that I would like to make pancakes for breakfast. I’m not typically a huge cook, so I had to go out to purchase the pancake mix, and decided to purchase a pre-made powder rather than try …
Burger King Whopper with Cheese from Burger King
I love the Burger King Whopper with Cheese. My first memory of the Burger King Whopper with Cheese when I was about seven years old. My mother brought Burger King home one Saturday evening and I even remember that my uncle was over for a visit too. …
Monaco Biscuits
Monaco biscuits are nice, gentle salty in taste They are crispy, and crunchy, and their taste is unique. That’s why I like them. There are not many biscuits that are salty in the market, mostly you have sweet biscuits, particularly chocolate flavored, so Monaco stands apart fro their different …

Sainsbury’s Harvest Grain Continental Bread Rolls
I love brown bread and obviously it has more fibre and health vitamins than white bread, but some brown rolls can taste a little bland and are a chore to eat. These on the other hand, are delicious and every bit as nice as a white continental bread …
Chick-fil-A Chargrilled Chicken Cool Wrap
The Chargrilled Chicken Cool Wrap at Chick-fil-A is wrap that I found to be flavorful and enjoyable, although it is not my favorite of the three wraps sold by this fast food restaurant. This wrap is really quite packed - there is grilled chicken, which I find to be …

Hunts Spaghetti Sauce
I’m not the best cook in the world but I do know how to make spaghetti. And, I would never been able to perfect my recipe if I didn’t have Hunts Spaghetti Sauce as a main ingredient.
There are a couple of things I like about Hunt’s sauce. First, is …
Marie Callender’s Chicken Pot Pies 16.5oz Size
I try to cook from scratch, but there will always be a place in my freezer for premade oven bake meals for nights when I’m just not up to it and don’t want to make a mess of the kitchen. Besides, I don’t have the first clue as to …
Blue Bunny BIG Mississippi Mud Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny BIG Mississippi Mud Ice Cream Sandwich is not something that I enjoyed quite as much as I thought I would. I expected this sandwich to offer up more almonds than it actually did. Rather than find an explosion of crunchy and flavorful almonds, I found myself on …
Kellogg’s Eggo Breakfast Sausage, Egg and Cheese Sandwiches
There are a lot of different kinds of breakfast sandwiches to choose from down the frozen breakfast aisle. Kellogg’s Eggo Breakfast Sausage, Egg and Cheese Sandwiches really do stand out though, not so much in taste or quality, but in appearance. Waffle-shaped bread is pretty much unique to this …
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Macaroni and Cheese: Cheddar
So it seems like nowadays more brands are getting on what I like to call the band wagon of Macaroni and cheese. There’s so many variations out there that sometimes it can get a little overwhelming. Many of us are big fans of Kraft, and know nothing else. I’m …
Arizona Green Tea Pomegranate
I walked by a coffee shop that was familiar to me and so curious, I stepped in at once. It was late in the afternoon and by that time, I already had my daily coffee quota. I spotted their Arizona Green Tea which they sold in several flavors. I …
Nature’s Path: Frosted Cherry Pomegran Toaster Pastries
I found Nature’s Path: Frosted Cherry Pomegran Toaster Pastries to be tasty, although sweeter than I expected. The sweetness comes from the frosting that covers the pastry. I do not feel that the frosting needed to be as sweet as it was made, but it really is not that …
Vegan chocolate in Europe
I’m a huge chocolate fan and I’ve estimated that I consume about 15 kilos of chocolate a year, which sounds insane, but it’s not that bad if you divide it by 365 days. People say there’re benefits to eating chocolate on a daily basis and I like to believe that, …
Breakstone’s Cottage Doubles Strawberry
I’m a snack person: There are times when I’ll make a snack from scratch and there are times when I’ll seek out a premade snack. I wasn’t introduced to the Breakstone’s cottage doubles until I was in my third or fourth year of high school. To this day, it’s …
Crush Grape Soda
I ultimately decided to try Crush Grape after having positive results with their original flavor called Crush Orange. My neighborhood Albertson was running a sale on two liter bottles of Crush Grape for a $1.69. Now when it comes to fruit flavored soda, I tend to go initially for …
Poland Spring Natural Spring Water 24-pack 16.9 fl.oz.
Poland Spring water bottles are our go-to for keeping ourselves hydrated. The first factor that made us choose this water was its low cost. We don’t like to pay a lot for water, and this was well-priced. The bottles are about the size of two cups …
Kellogg’s Smart Start Strong Heart Cereal Original
This is a decent but somewhat bland cereal that I had once, but I likely will not purchase again due to the ingredients that are in this cereal. It has a number of different kinds of oats and the cereal is lightly flavored with what tastes like honey and …
Supermix 3 in 1 Coffee
I am writing this review as i am drinking my very own cup of SuperMix 3 in 1 Coffee. This is a instant coffee mix, so it only need to be prepared in the most simple way. Just add hot water and you get your nice cup of coffee.

Keebler’s Chips Deluxe Chocolate Lover’s Cookies
I just recently “discovered” this particular flavor of this brand and I’d have to say, I like it more than other brands of cookies. I used to be a big Chips Ahoy fan but for some reason , they changed the way they make the cookies. Now, when I …
Folger’s Country Roast Coffee
I am a coffee addict that always loves a great bargain. I had the chance to purchase Folger’s Country Roast coffee for a really low price. I did not expect it to taste so good because it was so cheap. I decided to give it a try anyway and …
Tesco Value Pasta in Tomato and Onion Sauce
Just because an item is cheap does not mean that it is necessarily unpleasant, but this ‘Pasta in a Tomato & Onion Sauce’ from the Tesco Value range is not one of them. This was only 28 pence for a 110g sachet which gives you one portion, so …
Digiorno’s Crispy Flatbread Pizzas
I’m not sure exactly when Digiorno came out with their great tasting Crispy Flatbread Pizzas but I recently started enjoying them and fell in love with their amazing taste and their ease of dinner preparation and clean up. These pizzas
are available in the frozen pizza section of most grocery …
Dr. Pepper Soda
I love Dr. Pepper! It is honestly one of my favorite soft drinks of all time. I try to avoid soda most of the time, but Dr. Pepper gives me that tingly, fizzy, sweet-but-not-too-sweet type of taste that I crave sometimes. Pepsi and Coke don’t have …
Tripel Karmeliet, Belgium beer
Living in Belgium has a huge advantage to compensate the high taxes: BEER. There are over 600 types of trappist beers in Belgium but I will talk only about one of them which very fast became my favorite. I have documented a bit about it’s history, and I have …
Sunshine Butter Rolls
Do you sometimes find that you don’t feel like having breakfast in the morning? Bread and jam does not appeal to you, and neither does egg and ham. Whenever I feel this way, I will buy Sunshine Butter Rolls.
What I really like about the butter rolls is the rich and …
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips are alright, although I really do not care for them as much as other potato chips that I have tried. One of the definite advantages that these potato chips have to offer is there is a serious reduction in fat, so these potato chips …
Chungs Pork Egg Rolls
I just purchased a box of Chung’s Pork Egg Rolls and they are excellent. There are 4 egg rolls in a box, each egg roll is about the size of the ones you would get in a Chinese restaurant. They can be prepared in the microwave or in the …
Lipton Green Tea
I thought all green tea was the same. I like green tea and with that, was happy to get a box of Lipton Green Tea from a neighbor. The first time I made it, it seemed to be a bit weak. I really had to work hard in order …
Michelina’s Manicotti
I often times have dinner alone, as my husband works second shift half of the week, and doesn’t get home until around mid night. I try to wait on him, but I get hungry around seven in the evening, and it is torture trying to wait five more hours …
Lipton Pasta Sides
Lipton Pasta Sides are a quick and easy to make. They are also cheap. Eveyone in our family enjoys them. I especially like to stock up on them, when they are on sale at Price Chopper. They have a 10/$10 sale, so thats a dollar a bag. They have …
Idahoan Instant Potatoes
I decided to give instant potatoes another try. I am not big on instant potatoes, but I figured they are handy to have in the house. They only take a few minutes to make, and when you are in a pinch it is nice to have mashed potatoes as …
Clancy’s Puffed Corn Butter
Clancy’s Puffed Corn Butter is a product that comes in an eight ounce bag for one dollar and nineteen cents. The product has an odd name, but it’s a lot like popcorn. The puffed corn isn’t as crunchy as popcorn and it also isn’t as salty. It’s not as …
Pepperidge Farm Milano Double Chocolate Cookies
Pepperidge Farm Milano Double Chocolate Cookies have been around for quite a while, but it so happens that I have gotten to try them only recently. My husband brought home a 7.5 oz pack, telling me that these used to be one of his favorite cookies. The picture of …
Smarties candies
I can actually remember a time when Smarties candies did not come in the color blue. I know that is probably saying a lot about how old I am but in the 1980’s and being a child who was a chocolate lover, I was well acquainted with Smarties. It …
