Best Choice Sweetened Puffed Wheat Breakfast Cereal
My family and I have made an effort to reduce how much we spend at the grocery store. With a family of five, this can be very challenging. However, we have managed to do it by buying more generic products. One of our favorite generic brands is Best Choice. …
TGI Friday’s Pizza Chips
I can’t say that I found these chips all that tasty or enjoyable. These chips are supposed to have the flavor of cheese pizza baked into them, but I didn’t think of cheese pizza after trying some of these chips. Certainly, they do have a cheese flavor that’s not …
Aro sweet milk bread
Aro sweet milk bread is another product, which I love to use always. Actually there are a number of bread of different brand are there in the shops but the Aro sweet milk bread, aro wheat bread and also the aro sandwich breads have been very good in …
Sun Chips
I really like these chips. I barely ever buy them because they are about $5.00 a bag where I live. I have been finding them on sale though for about $2.00 so I have been buying them. They are different and unique from other chips.
They have a few …

However, I just recently discovered their Breakfast Sandwiches and fell in love with the great taste and low calorie count. They have several breakfast offerings including: Egg, Cheese, and Canadian Bacon on an English muffin or egg …
Arcor Butter Toffee with Chocolate Center
I first encountered Arcor’s Butter Toffee with a Chocolate Center when I was going to high school. This is one of the best toffees I have ever come across in my life. I don’t think any other toffee would beat it back, they can only come close.
I am chocolate …
Zvecevo, Mikado, milk chocolate
Zvecevo is not one of my favourite brands of chocolate. Actually there chocolates aren’t special at all so I rarely buy them, they haven’t made anything new for ages. That’s why my surprise was great when I saw a great looking collection of chocolates in white wrapping with golden …
Right’s Bakery Ginger Bulla
I can most definitely say that I am not and have never been a fan of my country’s famous bulla cakes. However, these days I still eat them regardless of the fact if there is nothing else in the house that I can consume as a snack when I’m …
Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Frosted Brownies
These Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Frosted Brownies are pretty much identical to the Cosmic Brownies, also manufactured by Little Debbie. The only differences here are these brownies are decorated in celebration of Independence Day and feature star-shaped sprinkles. This hardly alters the taste and texture of this brownie …
Raley’s Fine Foods Microwave Popcorn - Extra Butter
Loving popcorn and fueled on by a need to same money, I recently bypassed my normal brands of higher priced microwave popcorn to get the ’store’ brand, Raley’s Fine Foods, the Extra Butter variety, which was actually the only variety on the shelf available for purchase.
The box for the …
Selecta Choco Almond Fudge Ice Cream
Selecta has done it again. With this new flavor, they have created another “supreme”.
Chocolate ice cream and almonds is already a good combination. The texture produced by the nuts makes eating more enjoyable. They are also of the right bite-size so you won’t miss it. With the fudge added, …
Bush’s Homestyle Chili Original
Bush’s Homestyle Chili Original with no beans comes in a jar that can be cooked either on the stove top or in the microwave. I am not a fan of chili because of the beans, but Bush’s Homestyle Chili Original, No Beans gives me an option I can enjoy.
The …
Heinz Chili Style pinto and red kidney beans
We often make chili in our crockpot, and we used to just use plain beans with ground beef and other chili ingredients. However, these chili style beans are great - they add a lot of flavour and make the chili seem more like a chili without any effort. They …
Butterfinger Candy Bar by Nestle
I am a chocolate addict but there is one chocolate that I simply could not enjoy. This is Nestle’s Butterfinger Candy Bar. It is does not have the creaminess and lusciousness of my favorite chocolate bars. I hate the flaky orange colored center which is so messy on my …
Digiorno 12″ Rising Crust Italian Sausage
I was not too impressed with the Italian sausage that came on this frozen pizza. I have to complaints in regards to the sausage: firstly, the amount of sausage topping was on the skimpy side and secondly, the sausage did not have much flavor. It was just sort of …
Sweet And Sara Vegan Marshmallows
Being a Vegetarian or Vegan can be tough sometimes. There are always foods that you miss having. One of the foods that I’ve missed the most are marshmallows. Marshmallows have gelatin, and thus …are not Veggie friendly. To make things worst, it is darn near impossible to …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Rocky Road
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Rocky Road is a pretty flavorful and enjoyable ice cream treat! This ice cream consists of chocolate and marshmallows along with chocolate covered almonds. The chocolate ice cream is pretty rich and creamy. The marshmallow is also quite full of flavor and delectable. The …
Oreos Cakesters Snacks
I have never been a fan of the Oreo cookies. To me a cookie should be soft and sweet with some added chocolate and the hard, not-so-chocolate taste of the cookies never appealed to me. So I was surprised when I tried the new Oreo Cakesters and fell in …
Hershey’s Kisses
Hershey’s Kisses is so easy and neat to eat. A piece of this unique kiss-shaped chocolate could conveniently fit my mouth. I could savor its perfect creaminess and sweetness at it melts naturally on my mouth. I don’t need to use my front teeth to bite a piece …
Tums Smoothies
As someone who suffers from some digestive tract issues, I always carry antacid in my purse, in my car, or in my pocket, for instant relief from any number foods and drinks that upset my stomach. Usually, I carry a pouch of chewable Pepto-Bismol tablets, because they are convenient …
PurAqua Frut Flavored Water Variety Pack
I found this flavored water from PurAqua, and yes, it’s spelled “frut” as opposed to “fruit” on the packaging for some odd reason, to be more refreshing than flavorful. Naturally, it’s going to be refreshing because it’s water, and when it’s enjoyed good and cold, it’s a refreshing, thirst-quencher. …
Banquet Beef Pot Pie
With a net weight of 7 ounces, Banquet Beef Pot Pies are a small, but tasty pot pie that is sold in a cardboard pie “tin”. Although the poultry (chicken and turkey) pot pies are my favorites, I also am quite fond of …
Tourist Chocolate
Trying out a treat I bought did not exactly satisfy my sweet tooth. It kind of left me feeling more depressed and deprived. I know I should expect the least from the amount I bought; but I am still expected it not to be that bad. I tried the …
Chick-fil-A Nuggets
There are some items on the Chick-fil-A menu that are enjoyable, but prove to be items that I do not order again. One such item is the Chick-fil-A Nuggets. The reason I only ordered this menu item once is quite simply because with the Chick-n-Strips on the menu, I …
Knorr Orange Soup
I bought Knorr Orange Soup at the same time I purchased Knorr Red Soup. Both were on sale for $1.99 at my local grocery store, and I have to say the sight of those fresh spring carrots on the front of the box of Orange Soup looked very appealing.
I …
Stouffer’s Smoked Turkey Club Panini
Stouffer’s Smoked Turkey Club Panini is not quite as good as some of Stouffer’s other frozen sandwiches, but I nonetheless still enjoyed the sandwich and will likely purchase it again now and then. The smoked turkey slices have a good flavor to them, and I am not even that …
Bellona Choco and Noisettes Mueslli Crousti
I went to Lidl the other day. There you have a lot of cheap and good stuff so I like to go there. I eat muesli in the morning and I particularly like the crusty ones with pieces of Hazelnuts and chocolate. I usually but Vitalis but I saw …
Meijer House Blend Instant Coffee
Many people who are serious coffee devotees shun instant coffee. And for the longest time, I understood why. However, when I purchased this store brand of instant coffee for the first time to use in a recipe, I wasn’t sure what else to do with it besides trying to …
Hamburger Helper in Stroganoff
I have bought many Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper products over the years, but the worse one I ever encountered was the Stroganoff. In a hurry to make a quick dinner a few nights ago, I picked up this Stroganoff mixture at my local supermarket for just $1.99CDN.
The mixture on …

Tofurky
I tried to like Tofurky, but just could not do it. This product is revolutionary and really is a healthy option as well as being a vegetarian’s dream, but in my opinion, it stinks! We made tofurky and the entire family sat down to eat it and all I …
BSN Syntha-6 protein powder
BSN Syntha-6 protein powder is one thing that I have included in my diet for at least six months now. This protein powder is amazing. It comes in a variety of different flavors and sizes. It is not like every protein powder. It is different because it is more …
K Rogers Danish Style Butter Cookies
We got these delicious cookies as a Diwali present from our landlord. We were thankful for the sweets they have given us and so I was able to write a review about K Rogers Danish Style Butter Cookies.
Most of canned cookies here are imports from other country so the …

Thumbs up for the Slim Fast Optima Bars! Any time I know I am going to miss a few meals, getting the Slim Fast bars is a healthy choice. Not only are there a variety of choices to choose from, but they taste good too. The Peanut Butter Crunch …
Big League Chew
Have you ever heard of Big League Chew? If you haven’t, I don’t blame you, it’s not all too common to find everywhere you go like other candies these days. Big League Chew is gum in the form of little strands, kind of like spaghetti, but a little bit …
Anlene High-Calcium Low Fat Milk Concentrate
Anlene is a range of milk products which is meant to resolve the common bone nutrients deficiencies found in most adults. When Anlene was first advertised on TV, I actually did not pay much attention. I was thinking it was just the same as the many high-calcium …
Corn Pops
Corn pops is a cereal. I think its a really good cereal. It has a crunchy but yet sweet taste to it. It isn’t too sweet but just enough sweetness to it that it taste really good. Kellogg’s is the one who puts out corn pops. I really like …
Baker’s Corner Spring Confetti Deluxe Moist White Cake Mix
Baker’s Corner Spring Confetti Deluxe Moist White Cake Mix is a product that sells for ninety-five cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Eighteen point nine ounces of cake mix come in a box, so it contains about as much cake mix as your average Pillsbury or Duncan Hines cake …
Capri-Sun Berry Breeze
When I hear the words Capri-suns I know I am going enjoy a nice refreshing drink. Who doesn’t enjoy the convent little pouches (well besides my husband who still can’t figure out how to put a straw in without poking a hole on the other side). They are light …
Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo
I was disappointed with Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo ice cream. What dragged this ice cream down in my eyes was the lack of Oreo cookie pieces. I didn’t think the ice cream contained enough pieces of Oreo cookie to justify the price tag of nearly three dollars and …
Mama Cozzi Pizza
I buy a lot of items at Aldi’s grocery stores. Most are pretty good and, save me money. However, they have a frozen pizza line called Mama Cozzi that is really disappointing. In my 6 year old daughter’s opinion (which I value highly), the final verdict is “Eweeyuck!” I …
M.Y. San SkyFlakes Crackers
SkyFlakes Crackers has been my favorite since I was a child. Unlike other crackers, it has no fillings which makes it a lesser favorite for other children. But not me. I liked it as a child because I used to make my own fillings to go with it. A …
Solo Kola Champagne Soft Drink
It’s been a long while since I last had a kola champagne flavour of soft drink in any brand to be quite honest. But I remember that when I was younger I loved this red mixture which they fondly call kola champagne.
Well just yesterday I once again had the …
Quiznos Sandwich Shops
I love to eat soup and sandwiches. There is nothing like taking a bite of a sandwich and then a sip of soup! I discovered Quiznos a few years back in North Carolina. Little did I know that I was starting an addiction (just kidding). The sandwiches are amazing …
Selecta Ice Cream: Coffee Almond Cookies
My cousin would attest to the fact that I started nagging him about buying me this ice cream flavor ever since I saw the ad on TV. He never budged so I made a mental note to buy it for myself the moment I had the money. When I …
Tortellini Four cheeses (BARILLA)
BARILLA, the Italian pasta maker, is probably the most popular among the “big” commercial pasta producers. Some of its success may be attributed to the variety and the sheer ubiquity of their many products. But they wouldn’t be as popular as they are if they weren’t simply good - surely …
