Jack-N-the-Box French Fries
Jack-n-the-box fries are pretty disappointing because I expected them to taste a lot better. Jack-n-the-box has a lot of really great offerings, which is why I stop by the fast food place whenever I get the chance, which isn’t that often. I love a lot of their different foods, …
Bay Mist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail
In our house we drink a lot of juice, and do try to stay away from soda & kool aid. We recently tried the brand Bay Mist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail. The juice comes in a 64 Fl oz bottle. We bought it at Save A Lot for $2.00. …
Bens Sugar Shack Pure Maple Syrup
I was recently given a bottle of the Ben’s Sugar Shack Pure Maple Syrup in Grade A Dark Amber and I have to say, it was one of the best maple syrups I have ever used on my pancakes and in my sweet pork tenderloin crock pot dish.
The …
P-Nuttles Butter Toffee Peanuts Snack
Plain, salted peanuts are boring. Thus, when making trail mix, companies generally add raisins and M&Ms, to sweeten the healthy snack. The inventors of P-Nuttles went a step further. They coated their peanuts with butter and toffee. Unfortunately, this delectable snack is not sold anywhere in the United States. …
Silk Brand Chocolate Soy MIlk
Silk is known for their line of healthy soy milk drinks. One such drink is supposed to be a “rich, velvety” milk chocolate flavored beverage. My first roommate in college was adamantly vegetarian and gave me daily lectures on my murderous meat-eating ways, trying to force various …
Cherry Walnut Cheesecake
I served the Cherry Walnut Cheesecake from Cravings in one of our holiday tables. As this is the time of the year that we gather together to thank the Lord for a good year, I make it a point to make dining a memorable occasion —“ I only serve …
Matador Beef Jerky
Product Description: Bag of barbecue flavored beef jerky. I found it at one of our local grocery stores this morning for $4.99.
What I liked about this product: Well, for one, I like the fact the jerky is much softer than most other brands. I usually end up buying jerky …
Whole Foods 365 Organic Everyday Value Pie Crust
I tried Whole Foods 365 Organic Everyday Value Pie Crust once when it was on sale. The regular price is nearly three dollars and I am real glad that I did not pay regular price! Now the pie crust is not terrible, it is actually pretty decent, but it …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Cheesecake
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Cheesecake is not one of my favorite flavors. The reason it is not one of my favorite flavors is because there is not a whole lot of cheesecake flavor to this pudding. Unlike with many of the other pudding varieties, the cheesecake flavor is neither …
McVitie’s Medley Digestives Cereal Bars
The McVitie’s Medley range are basically cereal bars which have been combined with two kinds of Hobnobs (chocolate or peanut) —“ and in this case we have cereal bars combined with McVitie’s chocolate digestive biscuits. I think these are really yummy. These are like a cheater’s version …
FISHER PREMIUM WHOLE CASHEWS
Why have half a cashew when whole cashews are so well priced? I use cashews in a lot of my Oriental cooking, and my husband thinks they are what television was invited for…….to munch really good cashew nuts!
The Fisher Premium While Cashews come in a can that is bright …
Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers
This is a breakfast sandwich that didn’t agree with my stomach. The bits and pieces of sausage in the biscuit were gummy and tasted undercooked and as a result didn’t taste good. When I cook sausage patties on the stove, they certainly don’t come out tasting like this. For …
Aro sugar
The Aro sugar is the sugar, which was kept for sale in the super market. Actually many times whenever I had been to the super market for purchasing, I used to see the Aro branded sugar but this was for the first time I bought it to try …
Oasis’s 100% Blueberry and Concord Grape Juice
This product is as healthy as it can get. A lot of juice out there is from concentrate (which isn�t as good as 100% pure ones) or the ones mixed from powder or the other unnatural ones or contain too much sugar. Anyway this contains 100% vitamin C! Because …
NOS High-Performance Energy Drink
I bought one 16OZ can of original NOS High-Performance Energy Drink last night on my way home from work. I put it in my fridge and forgot about it until this morning.
I popped open the can this morning when I woke up and proceeded to finish it off …
hint - Strawberry Kiwi
The Strawberry Kiwi flavored water by hint is something I found to be tasty, although really, I think I could have done without the kiwi. Kiwi is not something that I have ever been able to really enjoy, and I certainly prefer strawberry several times over to the flavor …
Nestle All Purpose Cream
All purpose cream has lots of uses specially when making fruit salads and other sweets like cakes and mousses. You can’t actually make one without this. Sometimes, it’s also used for dishes with cream sauces and soups. The moment I learned how to cook and make …
Oreo Cakesters Soft Snack Cakes
We love Oreo cookies in our house, but as we all suffer from sensitive teeth, the only way we can eat them is by dunking them. Recently I found Oreo’s newest product, Oreo Cakesters Soft Snack Cakes. Designed like the regular Oreo with two cookies with a soft …
Now Foods Better Stevia Liquid Sweetener
For the past few decades major food companies have been coming up with the new calorie-free sugar substitutes. Thanks to them, now we are all familiar with such words as erythritol,maltodextrin, dextrose, saccharin, aspartame and Sucralose. However, certain studies have linked these long scary names to the development of cancerous …
Maxwell House Half-Caff Coffee
My boyfriend and I are usually faithful Nescafe drinkers. However, we ran out of coffee and a friend was nice enough to give us a brand new jar of Maxwell House Half-Caff. I wasn’t too keen on the whole Half-Caff idea at first, but after thinking about how much …
Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli
Quite unfortunately, there is nothing really all that supreme about Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli. Two of the most disappointing aspects of this Stromboli are the sausage and the pepperoni. Now first, let me say that I can indeed taste both, however, the flavor of both the sausage and the …
Cinnabon’s Canadian Bacon and Cheese Sandwich
When I look at Cinnabon, the only thing that comes to mind are cinnamon rolls. However, I am here to review not cinnamons, but one of their sandwiches. When I was in the airport, I saw a small kiosk of Cinnabon and I wasn’t really craving for anything sweet …
Nestle Rolo Ice-Cream
I keep finding new and wonderful flavours of ice-cream, and now that I may have found the best ever, I will likely gain much weight this summer. To make matters worse, the size of the container is about twice the size of Haagen-Dazs or Ben and Jerry’s ice-cream, for about …
Great Value Extra Raisin Bran
I couldn’t find my favorite cereal at my local Wal-Mart. I freaked out, afraid that Wal-Mart had discontinued their Great Value Extra Raisin Bran Cereal.
I found it a few weeks later in new packaging. I was relieved, but I soon pondered why Wal-Mart had changed it. Did they ruin …
Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Bubbly
I am something of a chocoholic - I love all things chocolatey, from cakes to bars and everything in between. Yet my concerns about a fair trade for developing world producers (where most cocoa is grown) and worries about forced child labour has led me to try to focus …
Witor’s Chocolate candy nocciolato
This candy tastes great, I adore chocolate with nuts but this one really is something special. When I got Witor’s Chocolate candy party collection from a friend I thought it was just one of those many very cheap, very sweet, not very good collections of chocolate candy but when …

GK Snacks Classic Peanut Butter Trail Mix
The GK Snacks Classic Peanut Butter Trail Mix costs four dollars and ninety-nine cents per bottle container. Each bottle container holds seventeen ounces. I generally can find this trail mix at Walgreens, where it’s put on sale every now and then and I end up saving about seventy-five cents. …
Astoria Pastry Shop Royal Oak Michigan
My favorite place to have desert is Astoria Pastry Shop. It’s located on trendy Main Street, in Royal Oak, Michigan. The shop is small, and has a light and airy ambiance with large windows. I really like that classic feeling, and it seems to go well with the deserts. …
Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons
I don’t usually buy wantons because I make my own at home which come out quite nicely if I do say myself. One day I decided to try Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons from their extensive menu of differently filled wantons, because I was not going to be home for …
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream is a great ice cream parlor! It is of the same cut as Marble Slab Creamery and Cold Stone Creamery but it is definately set apart. The ice cream flavors are awesome, definately check out better batter, you feel like you’re eating cake, sooo good! …
YMA Apple Cinnamon Flavored Water
I miss drinking YMA Apple Cinnamon Flavored Water. It is not that it has been discontinued - I could still easily purchase this water if I so desired, and I do, but I have to control that desire and work to stifle it because this water is, quite unfortunately, …
Popcorn Indiana Cheddar Cheese Popcorn
Product Description: Bag of pre-popped popcorn with aged cheddar cheese. Available at Walgreens for around $3.
What I liked about this product: For one, the popcorn was much fresher than I expected popcorn from a pre-packaged bag to be. I bought this expecting it to be very stale and it …
Maruchan Instant Lunch Noodles
This instant food comes very handy and convenient to me during times I got hungry and didn’t have the time to cook, especially when I’m working long hours at the computer. I am so glad they invented this quick and easy food because it helps those who are busy …
Our Family Chili
I decided to make chili dogs last night and, in the interest of not spending too much (since I didn’t get paid until today), I ended up buying a bargain brand can of chili; Our Family.
When I purchased this, I remembered buying it before. But, I couldn’t remember much …
Carnation Instant Breakfast Chocolate Drink: Complete Nutritional Drink
I purchased the Carnation instant breakfast chocolate drink because I had started a fitness regimen, and I wanted to incorporate a healthy breakfast drink. I’m not really into diets or diet drinks, but the Carnation instant breakfast chocolate drink didn’t appear to be a diet drink, and I love …
Rold Gold Pretzel Rods
Rold Gold Pretzel rods are one of my favorite of the long (about 7 or 8 inches long) pretzel sticks that were traditional in my childhood years. These are not the little, thin pretzel sticks; these are the longer thicker sticks.
In terms of taste, I really like the …
Del Monte Marinade
Del Monte has this product called the Instant Marinade. I have tried using the two varieties, barbecue and tapa and I can say that I am satisfied with these products. Del Monte is a world famous name in the food industry and you will not be disappointed with the …
Amy’s Complete Frozen Enchilada Dinner
Being vegan it makes it hard to find a good old fashion TV dinner. I know that it is better to prepare fresh homemade meals, but sometimes it is nice to have something you can pop in the oven, without any thought.
I often keep Amy’s Enchilada frozen meals …
McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger Deluxe
I grew tired eating of the same thing in fast food chains. They all serve the same thing over and over Burgers, Chickens, Salads, Ice cream sundaes Kids never get tired of them, but as adults we do! And we do seek changes in at least the …
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 …
Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea
The other day I got really thirsty and stopped by the convenience store to pick up a drink. I wasn’t in the mood for a soda so I decided to try Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea. I usually don’t drink bottled tea but I decided I would …
Great Value Chocolate Milk Mix
Once in a while, I like to have a nice cold glass of chocolate milk. However, the price of it kills me, so I decided to try mixing my own. I bought a 1 lb can of Great Value chocolate milk mix for under $2, which was not much. …
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 …
Goya Cookies & Cream
I have a sweet tooth. This has plagued me from childhood. Now, in my late thirties, I have to choose what I eat very well since my blood sugar has sometimes reached borderline level. Many years ago, I only indulged in imported brands. Now I’ve rediscovered the chocolate bar …
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,” …
