Clancy’s Onion Rings Original (Seven Ounce Bag)
Clancy’s Onion Rings Original come in a seven ounce bag for one dollar and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. I don’t like onion rings that come already cooked and in a bag as much as onion rings that are sold frozen and must be cooked, because I …

McCain Cool Quenchers drink mix
We bought four containers of McCain’s Cool Quenchers frozen juice concentrate last time we went grocery shopping. We chose to try these particular drink mixes because they were on sale - we usually just get regular store brand frozen juice mix or juice in those big bottles. But these …

Entenmann’s 8 Rich Frosted Donuts
There really is not anything all that remarkable about Entenmann’s 8 Rich Frosted Donuts. They are simply chocolate frosted donuts with a yellow cake interior. Simple is not necessarily a bad thing if the simple ingredients result in a tasty treat, but in this particular instance, simple is not …
Ribena drink

Iced vanilla latte mcdonalds

Bread and Butter Pickles
Pickles are one of the best snack foods or additions to meals. Vlasic pickles are my absolute favorites, which is why I was so sad when I came across the bread and butter pickles that were meant to go inside of a sandwich. They were nothing like the normal …
Multi-Grain Cheerios
Starting off a day with a bowl of Multi-Grain Cheerios certainly isn’t the tastiest way to begin a new day, but it definitely makes for one of the healthiest. Out of all the Cheerio varieties, and there sure are a whole lot of them, and compared with the different …

Jacobs biscuit company has been established for 125 years since 1885. Their biscuits are always of good quality and variety. However when I recently bought a box of Jacobs Biscuits for Cheese, was rather disappointed.

Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews
Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews was picked by me because of price advantage over full pieces. Around half of the box was broken pieces and rest was halves of cashews. The cashews seemed roasted and processed. Evidently the quality grade of cashews was pretty low. This was …
Kraft French Style Dressing Fat Free
When it comes to salads, my choice of dressing is always ranch. I only had the opportunity to try French dressing when I was in fifth grade, and eating from the salad bar. I thought it was good when I was a kid, and wanted to take another shot …
Chief Chunky Red Hot Sauce (Salsa Picante)
I have a favourite pepper sauce or hot sauce but recently it was sold out and I was making a dish which absolutely needs to have pepper sauce added into it for it to taste any good! Besides, I love my foods spicy! but I hardly ever cook them …

Stouffer’s Harvest Apples
Stouffer’s Harvest Apples make for a relatively delightful side dish or after dinner treat. The reason I use the word “relatively” is because I believe that these apple slices could stand some improvement. Where the improvement could be made is in the flavor. There is not a great deal …
Kellogg’s Cocoa Frosties
I have been yearning to have that Cocoa Frosties since I saw it again in the supermarket earlier today. I have memories of my childhood whenever I see this box of cornflakes because my mom used to buy it and I would eat it without milk as an afternoon …

Diet pepsi max
DIet pepsi max reminds me of pepsi edge it has that extra jolt. I stay up all night very often and love having a diet drink I actually like the taste of that can keep me up. I read today that the reason for the jolt is it has …
Jimmy Dean Pancakes and Sausage on a Stick
I’ve always loved pork. Breakfast is one of my favorite meals because there’s pork sausage, pancakes and scrambled eggs to be eaten. That’s definitely one of my favorite meals.

Legacy Bakehouse - Mix’n More Cheesy Buffalo Snack Mix
Legacy Bakehouse - Mix’n More Cheesy Buffalo Snack Mix is not as good as the garlic variety. The reason I did not enjoy this snack mix quite as much as the garlic variety is because the buffalo flavoring seemed to overwhelm the other flavors, like the cheese, salt and …
Smith’s Popped Chips
I had seen many advertisements on tv for the Smith’s Popped Chips and after spotting them in my local grocery store two weeks ago, I decided to try them out and see what they were like. The Smith’s Popped Chips were AU$3.80 per 100g and were available …
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 …
Kinder Chocolate
Ok it is true, I am almost 27 years odl and my favourite chocolate is the chocolate for kids. I really wonder how many grown ups can say that they don’t like this chocolate? I guess our taste doesn’t change that much with years because when I was little …

Bagel Bites

Triple Berry Loaf Cake by The Bakery at Walmart
I just love the Reduced-fat Very Berry Coffee Cake sold at Starbucks. But, I don’t want to always have to go to Starbucks to get it. When I saw this in our local Walmart Bakery section, I knew I had to try it!
While the Starbucks version contains blackberries, blueberries …
Batman Reese’s Pieces
As a tie in with the new Batman movie, Reese’s is making a new version of their Reese’s Pieces. I love the candy and I grabbed a small bag from the gas station recently without giving it much of a thought. I saw the Batman picture on the front, …
Jacks Frozen Pizzas
I purchase Jacks frozen pizzas because they are the brand that is on sale at the local grocery stores most often. We usually buy two or three and save them for days when neither of us feels like cooking.
Because of the price, you can be sure the Jacks pizzas …
Ronzoni Bistro Rotini with Tomato and Basil
Ronzoni Bistro Rotini with Tomato and Basil comes in an eight ounce package and retails for one dollar. It can be found in most grocery stores, although I wish that I hadn’t found it considering how unpleasant the meal was to the taste. I had this pasta with a …
Hot Box Cookies
Only in a college town would you expect to see a cookie shop with delivery service. That would be Hot Box Cookies in Columbia Missouri.
I love the story behind the shop. Three college students who were friends came up with the concept and opened their own business …
Blue Diamond Almonds
Blue Diamond Almonds are a very tasty snack. I like to eat Blue Diamond Almonds while I am studying or I am doing work at home. They just really hit the spot when It’s not time for lunch or dinner, but you need a good snack to keep you …
Kikkoman Soy Sauce
I bought a bottle of Kikkoman Soy Sauce because that’s the sauce they have in my favorite Chinese restaurant. The bottle looked exactly the same, but the product turned out to be totally different. It did not have the strong, salty taste I expected. I don’t know whether the …

I love making pasta salad in the summer time along with my own ranch and Caesar dressings. However, I find myself going through a lot of mayonnaise often, which is why I always purchase my store brand mayonnaise, which is My Essentials Real Mayonnaise. The mayonnaise comes in a …
Milky Way Candy Bar
I’ve always strongly associated Snickers with Milky Way candy bars. Aside from being from the Mars company, the only reason I can think of for doing so is that my mom loved both. I’m more of a Snickers person, but a good Milky Way Candy Bar is …

Clover Valley All Purpose Flour
While I like many products in the Clover Valley family, this one is simply horrible! There is something seriously wrong with this flour; although I can’t say exactly what it is the cause - perhaps because it is “bleached”? That does seem to be the main difference between this …
