Great Value Whole Kernel Corn
One of the side dishes I decided to make with dinner last night was sweet corn from the brand Great Value.
I have had Great Value products in the past and have been happy with them for the most part but will confess this particular item was a disappointment to …

Republic of Tea Blackberry Sage Black Tea Bags 50 sachets
I am a huge fan of flavored black teas, and they make up about 80% of my fluid intake on any given day. I’ve always loved black currant flavored tea. When I was last shopping at a Fresh Market store, where they carry the Twining’s black currant that I …
Ben & Jerry’s Single-Serve Ice Cream
My wife and daughter ran out to Walmart yesterday afternoon and came home with Ben & Jerry Single-Serve ice cream cups as a treat.
I personally don’t really like ice cream all that much (just in ice cream sandwiches and bars) but did think this was an interesting concept. It …
Bush Reduced Sodium Pinto Beans
I was introduced to Bush beans a few years back by my mother who absolutely loves Bush bean. I have been using them ever since. They are brand that you can not go wrong with when you are in a hurry for a meal or need something …
Shurfine Premium Cake Mix
Having tried two (Devil’s Food and Yellow) Shurfine Premium cake mixes I am ready to say that they are an incredible value for the amazing taste that you get in your cake. While the directions are a little different calling for both oil and water where most cake mixes call …
Sara Lee’s Chocolate Cheese Cake
I went to the PX goods supermarket yesterday to pick up some foreign food stuff to add to my grocery list. As I walked past the freezer section, I saw Sara Lee products! I was so overwhelmed with their pre-made cakes that I did not know which ones to …
Carte D’Or Stracciatella (ice cream by Algida)
When it comes to ice cream I am very picky. I guess that’s because I got used to Italian ice creams and rarely the aren’t of an excellent quality. I like creamy ice creams that don’t taste like water, where you can’t feel small pieces of ice. For that reason …
Quaker Chewy Yogourt Bars
These new granola bars are much tastier than most granola bars. The layer of yogourt on the bottom adds a nice smooth taste to the granola.
It is also a nice portable snack - I like to grab one on my way out of the house to eat in the …
Safeway Diet Orange flavored soda
Safeway Diet Orange flavored soda sucks to put it lightly! I was really hoping for a better tasting product from this company, because I have had good luck with some of their other brand products. This soda is just plain yuchy! There is really nothing good …
Linda Mccartney Deep Country Pie 664g
My recent decision to become a vegetarian again has lead to me to try some convenience vegetarian foods. Sometimes you just don’t want to create a meal from scratch, sometimes there just isn’t time. Convenience foods can work out more expensive than creating a meal yourself but …
Fit & Active Caramel Rice Snacks
This is a snack that doesn’t deliver essential vitamins or nutrients to the body, but it’s a snack that won’t do much damage at all to the body, either, since there’s no fat of any type and no cholesterol either. It’s also a simple snack. It’s both sweet as …
Smirnoff Vodka Mojito
On the heels of my experience with the Cuervo Gold Margarita drink, I decided that I would investigate what other pre-mixed drinks were out there. It seems that fusions of food and beverages are becoming extremely popular these days. I visited my local package store and …
Betty Crocker Authentic Cornbread & Muffin Mix
I’ve written a review in the past for Marie Callender’s Cornbread and it is yummy, but I saw this one recently and decided to give it a try. Overall, I have to give Betty Crocker Authentic Cornbread & Muffin Mix a good review. One of the reasons …
Kuchenmeister Lemon Pound Cake
Kuchenmeister Lemon Pound Cake is a product that I came across at an ALDI Food Market store for one dollar and sixty-nine cents. I decided to give it a try and see how well it tasted compared with The Bakery At Walmart Lemon Sliced Loaf Cake, a bakery item …
Klondike Big Bar Ice Cream Sandwiches
I have to admit that Klondike Big Bar Ice Cream Sandwiches are yummy. I also have to say they’re darn expensive, which is why I don’t get them very often. Still, for a treat, they’re hard to beat.
The silver package with the white polar bear has been …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones
Weight Watchers Smart Ones are very tasty and healthy meals. I’ve tried many of the ones they offer, and the lasagna florentine is my favorite. It has 290 calories and 9 grams of fat. That is very good for 1 meal. The lasagna florentine is …
Lightlife Smart Deli Baked Ham
Before I stopped eating meat, ham sandwiches were one of my absolute favorite lunches. I definitely missed it when I gave up meat, but I found that Smart Deli’s baked “ham” was a really great substitution for the real thing. I’ve tried almost all of the veggie meats on …
Nutella Single (FerreroRocher)
»Nutella« is possibly the most widespread and most beloved among of the products of the Italian company Ferrero Rocher. It is certainly long-lived, too: it was originally invented in 1949. It is a creamy »chocolate-hazelnut« (the description varies, depending on each country’s laws about advertising) spread that many like …
Starkist Tuna Creations: Hickory Smoked
I like tuna, but sometimes opening and draining a can is annoying. The liquid spills out and the can sometimes can cut a person’s fingers. Therefore, I like the new invention of tuna in a pouch rather than a can. Starkist Tuna Creations: Hickory Smoked Tuna came in a …
Pie Crusts
I have always been fascinated with the taste of Pie Crusts very much. And when we are talking about Pie Crusts, it can range from pizza right up to the different types of pies.
I suppose I will never have any types of specific favorites when it comes …
Bumblebee Tuna in Oil
I am not a fan of fish! I like other seafood though but fish in particular isn’t one of those things my taste buds take kindly to. I was surprised when I tasted Bumblebee’s Tuna in Oil though. My grandmother had made it for me at the time (I …

Cafe21, 2 in 1 instant white coffee mix, without sugar
I was never a fan of premixed coffee that usually comes in 3 in 1 forms. It is a combination of non-dairy creamer, sugar and instant coffee powder. They are either too sweet or too watery for my taste. I want to taste the coffee not …
Hungry Howie’s Large Pepperoni Specials
I had never had Hungry Howie’s pizza until we moved to Florida. They do have a few of them in Indiana but not near where I was living at; so I had never tried them. I had noticed their outside advertisement on their sign on the first day we …
Bake House Halloween Cinnamon Rolls
How does one take a cinnamon roll and give it a Halloween twist? By throwing on some chocolate frosting, of course. Apparently, that’s how Bake House, the company behind these Halloween-themed cinnamon rolls, thinks, because the Bake House Halloween Cinnamon Rolls are no different from the cinnamon rolls that …
KFC Food: Popcorn Chicken
I’ve always been a fan of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) but one food on the menu makes KFC my favorite fast food restaurant there is and that food is popcorn chicken, it is my favorite KFC food on the menu. I like it because it is boneless (unlike Chicken …
Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper in Chili Macaroni
I have long been a fan of Betty Crocker products, and have tried a variety of her hamburger helper meals over the years, but I had never tried the Chili Macaroni flavour until now. What really made me buy it at my local supermarket was the picture of the …
Boston market chicken, broccoli and cheese casserole
Because of my previous–and great–experience with my last Boston Market frozen dinner purchase, I decided to purchase another one from my local super Wal-Mart and this one was one of my favorites: Chicken, broccoli and cheese casserole. I have eaten plenty of Marie Callender’s’ chicken, broccoli and cheese casseroles; …
Chloremint breath freshener mint
The chloremint breath freshener mints are useful for those who have the gum problem. I mean to say, some times my mouth used to give bad odder and because of which most of my friends and even my relatives used to avoid me. Later when I came …
Sunbeam Sultana Bursts Raspberry Flavor
I like Sunbeam sultanas and I just had to try the latest Raspberry flavored Sultana Bursts. You get 6 30g packs of Sultana Bursts fro $2.30 AUS. This is slightly dearer than other sultana packs on the market but I like Sunbeam Sultanas so I thought I’d try the …
Quaker Cinnamon Life
I bought Quaker Cinnamon Life while out shopping with my daughter because it was on sale for $1.99/box. I had planned to find Kellogg’s Crispix, but couldn’t pass up the price on the Life. Cereal takes a big chunk of the budget these days.
Well, I had my …
Kroger Lite Vanilla Yogurt
This is one of my favorite yogurt flavors to enjoy during the day! Vanilla is a flavor that I often times can’t seem to get enough of, and this vanilla yogurt from Kroger is simply delicious. There’s a very rich vanilla taste despite the fact that it’s a fat …
Dunkin Donuts lattes
Dunkin Donuts now offers a more gourmet coffee for those of us, like me, who need that extra shot or two of espresso in with their already turbo caffinated coffee! I was absolutely dying to try one of their lates, and I finally got the chance earlier today. …
Hormel Beef Roast
We’ve had Hormel Beef Roast for supper, for the first time, but definitely not for the last. It is so easy to cook, one of those “heat & eat” products that you just put in your oven or microwave, and in 7 minutes it is ready to serve. It …
Almarai Mixed fruit juice
As this is the summer, we generally take more fruit juices to bear the heat. This time I brought home Almarai Mixed fruit juice. This is natural juice with concentration of various mixed fruits like apple , orange, pine apple, passion, guava, apricot, mango, banana and lime. The taste …
Nescafe Instant Coffee
I have been a coffee drinker my whole adult life. In fact, it was I who introduced coffee-drinking to my husband sixteen years ago and we are still enjoying the habit up to now.
We only have one brand eversince, Nescafe Instant …
Pillsbury Cherry Turnovers
I have just tried making Pillsbury Cherry Turnovers for the first time, and I think it’s a keeper. My husband and I loved them, even though I had messed up a little when cooking.
Unlike some other Pillsbury baking products I’ve tried, these cherry turnovers are not “heat and eat,” …
Bali’s Best Latte Candy
I bought this candy at an Asian food store in Seattle, Washington. The candy is labeled as “latte candy”, and I was curious as to whether it would taste good or not because I have never drank any lattes. At first the taste was surprising, but it’s really good!
Each …
Special K snack bar
Everyone is in a hurry at least once in a while, and it can be very convenient to just grab a quick snack as you run out the door, to eat later when you’re not in so much of a hurry. One such snack that you could try is …
Iceberg Restaurant’s Yum Yum Cheesy Nachos
I just recently realized that the Icebergs Restaurant along Tomas Morato serves other dishes other than ice cream. So along with the ice cream dessert that we ordered, we also ordered a nice, easy to eat dish for the afternoon. My husband and I chose their Yum Yum Cheesy …
Del Monte Sliced Peaches
My husband and I like Del Monte canned fruit, we have tried almost every variety there is. Sliced peaches, however, turned out to be not as good as I expected. I love fresh peaches, and as I said I have enjoyed other Del Monte canned fruit, so I thought …
Michaelina’s Fettuccine Alfredo Pasta
As you already know, I’m not really into Italian-pasta dishes because of the heavy alfredo used, but my mom thought I should give the Fettuccine alfredo pasta a try because she liked it. I reluctantly tried it.
The Michaelina’s Fettuccine alfredo pasta frozen meals cost the same as the Salisbury …
General Mills Cereal - Chocolate Cheerios
I absolutely love everything about the new Chocolate Cheerios! General Mills recently introduced this exciting new flavor to their Cheerios brand cereal line, and let me just say…they are delicious. I am a big fan of any food that is healthy, and that tastes as good as …
Blue Diamond Almond Breeze almond coconut blend unsweetened
So I recently moved to the US and I’ve started trying out different plant-based milk brands to find the one that will fullfill all my purposes. No success yet. And I’ll tell you why later on. At first, let me tell you what I expect from my plant-based milk and …

Pringles Restaurant Cravers Mozzarella Sticks and Marinara
These chips really didn’t do much for me. I was quite excited when I purchased them because I love both mozzarella and seasoned marinara sauce, but I can’t say that either the aroma or the taste reminded me of mozzarella sticks or marinara sauce. There was some cheese flavoring …
