I read somewhere that yogurt is great because it has live lactobacilli which is beneficial for our stomachs. Also, since I am lactose-intolerant, I would benefit greatly from eating yogurt as compared to drinking milk because this has a lower amount of lactose that is needed to digest. I …

I am getting on in years (almost 35) but I still reflect on the days when as children going to a Birthday was special because you knew that there would be a cake, games and other amazing goodies. Sometime in the 80’s the commercial for Fudgey the Whale ice …

I am lover of instant coffee. To be more precise, I like it strong, sweet - and preferably cool. And yet, I am not a great fan of iced coffee… with the exception of one single brand: Jacobs Ice Coffee.
I have noticed there are two “ice coffee” produced by Jacobs. …

I decided I wanted a Sprite today, but the row I was in at the grocery didn’t have Sprite, they had the new and improved Sierra Mist. I figured why not try it, especially when I am someone who enjoys healthy alternatives to things and since the bottle says …

Because my father and I like nuts so much I bought one from the grocery. There are so many health benefits that you can get from nuts like it lowers the risk of heart disease and nut eaters can benefit of five to six years of life free from …

While I was on vacation in Helen, Georgia, we went to the Nora Mill Granary located just south of Helen in the Sautee-Nacoochee Valley district. This is actually a historic stone grinding that opened in 1876. The mill is right on the Chattahoochee River and it is …

I live in a hot tropical country. It is very important to hydrate my body all the time especially during hot summer days. A good beverage to have is Gatorade. It is healthy and not bad for the body unlike sodas. This product has evolved over the years. It …

I have been short of money many times in my life but I never buy cheap, nasty bread. I like the fact that there is a lot of choice of lovely breads like white crusty which I love, or nutty and really grainy like this Burgen Soya & …

Old Dutch All Dressed Potato Chips are easily some of the most forgettable chips that I have ever tried. While that certainly is not a good thing, it actually is not a terribly bad thing, either. The reason I say that is because while the potato chips do not …

I don’t normally complain about the food I get from Cousin’s Subs. Normally the service is somewhat questionable but the food makes it worth it.
But, I tried their chili last night and have to say I wasn’t very impressed with it.
I picked it up looking for something warm to …

I seem to remember that Nutella Hazlenut spread was launched onto the UK market when I was a kid in the 70s but when it came out, I looked at it as the Holy Grail of spreads for children. I hope I am not pregnant or anything …

Suraya Aromatic Instant Coffee from the Nescafe —˜Collection’ range is a good quality coffee and it is perfect for my personal taste. Although I prefer a smooth coffee to a harsh or bitter kind, I do like my coffee to have some strength in it or it is …

I had Michelin’s Lean Gourmet five cheese lasagna the other night for the first time. This lasagna is a frozen dinner meal. It’s just the right size for me. My husband on the other hand would say there wasn’t enough food. If you don’t usually eat a large meal …

I’d heard about Famous Amos cookies off and on as a teenager, but I was an adult before I’d had any. That was when some individual packages were offered in a company snack box. I couldn’t resist and had to try them. After that, I regularly …

These are Burger King branded snack chips that are supposed to be the equivalent of the onion rings they sell at the restaurant. They actually look surprisingly close to what their real onion rings look like, they aren’t just the skinny little light yellow …

Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix is great! I am not a fan of restaurant pancakes and have always made them from scratch so they always end up being a week-end treat. With Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix I can make them quick and easy …

It’s not uncommon for a slice of pie to be served with a scoop or two of ice cream on top. It’s not uncommon because it’s a dessert combination that works and works rather well at that! Ice cream and pie are two dessert items that are loved by …

I like these Little Debbie Marshmallow Pies - Chocolate variety more than the banana variety because at least these chocolate flavored ones have some flavor! The chocolate flavor is much richer and more authentic than the banana variety. Where as with the banana variety, the banana flavor was detrimental, …

PayDay Candy Bars make me think back and remember my childhood. It’s a weird kind of symbol of happy family times. No, my family didn’t sit around eating PayDay Candy Bars, but they were one of my mom’s favorites, and I loved them, too.
PayDay Candy Bars are …

This brand of ice cream is one of those I like. Although I buy this regularly when I go shopping, this is not my best choice of ice cream. It is cheaper though compared to my favorite one so I still buy it and stock it in our fridge. …

I love the zesty zing of this pulp-free product. I always drink it when I have a cold because I believe it gives the best burst of Vitamin C. I’ve actually discovered that if I drink it when I feel a sore throat coming on that it reduces …

Despite all the colors and flashy decorations found in and on Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Birthday Party, there is really not a whole lot to celebrate about this ice cream. The ice cream carries roughly the same flavor as a white cake, so there is very little flavor …

I had already tried the Dolmio Sweet Tomato & Chilli stir-in sauce and that was lovely so I thought I would try this other variety which is made of oven roasted vegetables. I have discovered that roasting vegetables is the best way to bring out their flavour and …

My daughter and I just ate a can of Condensed Vegetarian Vegetable Soup. The brand is Venise Maid Foods. My daughter seemed to like it well enough but I personally feel that it couldnt get any worse it was so awful! It was the worst tasting vegetarian vegetable soup …

If you live in the Philippines you might be familiar with the magic cream sandwich crackers. I was just introduced to this product for only two months because I only know of the Magic flakes (soda crackers). So, two months ago my mom brought home this Sandwich cracker. She …

About a month ago, my wife and I picked up a box of Nateway pierogies when we were out shopping at Save-a-Lot. They were very affordable and it was a food item we both enjoyed so I figured it would be worth buying just so we had them when …

My favorite rooibos herbal tea that I always keep on hand to make up and drink is the Celebrations Herbals Organic Red Rooibos Tea. I love this tea because the only ingredient it is made with is organic rooibos, which contains loads of antioxidants and other medicinal properties that …

Sometimes I don’t like change, and I sure hope the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar remains unchanged. I say this because in Fall 2008, the Hershey Company began replacing the very expensive cocoa butter which gives their chocolates that taste we all love and crave with vegetable oil. …

Wow now I am going to talk about my favourite Amul fresh creme. Hm-Amul has been my favourite brand name and I love most of the Amul milk products. The Amul fresh creme is really very fresh and very tasty. I buy this creme because I …

I love turkey, but when I say that, I usually mean Butterball turkey or deli turkey slices. I don’t like turkey hot dogs or turkey anything else as a rule. On a whim, though, I saw Hormel Homestyle Turkey Meat Loaf and Tomato Sauce at the store …

Bendicks Bittermints are very high quality and I think these are a real luxury. These are a firm, mint fondant which have a blast of mintiness to them that reminds me of Trebor Extra Strong Mints when it comes to the flavour, but the mintiness is less harsh. …

Drinking daily juice is one of my habits because it is a good source of vitamin C. Orange juice is the most common orange juice flavor and it has variations as well. Some are sourced from western oranges and some are from mandarin orange. Ponkana is from mandarin orange. It …

I thought this would be good because I love white chocolate and I wasn’t disappointed. My main problem is that this type of toffee is so hard to find. I actually had to have a family member ship me some just so I could try it and then I …

I always thought that Tropicana was simply peerless, until I came across this one. I never knew that Canada makes one hundred percent pure orange juice like this. I’ll start with the taste. It is truly superb, it has just the right tanginess and the wholesome taste …

I like my green tea, and specifically Jasmine green tea for its delicate floral aroma and flavor. I’ve been drinking the stuff for at least ten years now. I have also become hooked on the effects of the caffeine in green tea which is different from coffee. I don’t …

Season’s Choice Super Sweet Whole Kernel Corn is a frozen, packaged corn that’s sold at ALDI Food Market stores for just sixty-five cents. For sixty-five cents, a person can purchase a sixteen ounce bag. That’s a very impressive value in my opinion and it beats what other stores sell …

Pastry Crisps are a new addition to the Kellogg’s Special K line of products. I noticed them recently on the shelves down the cereal, breakfast bars and breakfast foods aisle at Walmart for two dollars and fifty cents a box. A box contains ten pastry crisps and considering the …

We ususally buy another brand of chicken frankfurters since the other brand is cheaper, but this month my father decided to buy the Reggae Jammin chicken frankfurters instead. I’m not even sure how much it costs either, but after hearing much praises from my father about how good the …

It’s absolutely mind-boggling to me just how many flavors of potato chips there are out there. I can still remember a time when there wasn’t much beyond sour cream and onion as well as barbecue potato chips. Time has changed for the chip though as companies continue to branch …

Inside the brittle chocolate coating is a mouth-watering, sweet, softy and creamy ice cream with caramel toppings. Wow! This is really what I can call a perfect chocolate treat and what I am talking about is the Snickers Ice Cream Bar.
I am not fan of consuming imported goods but …

Del Monte Citrus Salad is our new family favorite. This canned fruit mix contains three kinds of citrus (red grapefruit, white grapefruit, and orange) in sweet light syrup. It is packed with Vitamin C, it tastes great, contains no preservatives, and, best of all, you don’t have to peel …

I love eating crackers as a snack, but I think the majority of the crackers sold at my local grocery store are outrageously priced. The median price seems to be $3.00, and I can’t justify paying $3.00 for a box of crackers. So I usually end up …

My daughter just adores Cerelac Baby Cereal in wheat banana flavor! the first time she tasted it, she just could not get enough of it! I am really so happy and proud that my daughter really loves eating her first solid food. At least now I have an alternative …

Crystal Light Lemonade comes in a powder form. You buy it and mix it with water. I usually take two canisters at a time. Mixing them with water, they fit perfectly in a gallon jug.
Crystal Light Lemonade is just the right combination of sweet and tart. I don’t like …

Folgers Instant Coffee is very good. This is the stuff that gets me going in the morning and it’s a very good product. Another great thing about this coffee is that it’s sold at a good price. It’s not to expensive. With a coupon you can get the Folgers …

I recently tried the Wasabi KitKat which was a present to me from Japan. It came in a green and white box with Japanese characters and pictures of the wasabi plant and the light green KitKat. I like the packaging a lot because it looks very Japanese …
