Fox’s Creams Golden Crunch biscuits
The Fox’s name is one that I find I can usually rely on to give me biscuits that are both tasty and decent value, and the same is true of the Golden Crunch variety. These are not the cheapest biscuits around, weighing in at around 89p for a 200 …

Winking Owl Vineyards Shiraz
Winking Owl Vineyard’s Shiraz wine is sold by Aldi’s supermarkets. It retails for 2.99 a bottle. I was curious to try this because you never know if a bottle of wine that retails for 2.99 will be any good.

Squeezed for you Calamansi Extract
The last time I commented on the same kind of product but of different brand, I had to be really mean because I have nothing good to say about the product except that it was cheap. Well, computing and thinking about it, this product is also cheap because it …

Magnolia Pancake Plus
Breakfast is complete if you have pancakes for the kids. I also like having pancake for breakfast because it is a good choice instead of going for eating old-fashioned bread. I like wheat bread or oven fresh sliced white bread with cream jelly but nothing can top a freshly …

The container of this mint really caught my attention. It does not look like the ordinary mint or chewing gum. It is on a slim rectangular tin container. You need to slide the tin container in order to open it. It’s purple with a mold of a human body …
Thomas’: Blueberry Pre-Sliced Bagels
I was disappointed with Thomas’: Blueberry Pre-Sliced Bagels for one very simple reason: the bagels did not have a sufficient number of blueberries to satisfy my expectations. More is generally better, and in the case of these bagels, more would have resulted in a better, more enjoyable experience that …

Knorr Pasta Sides Cheesy Cheddar
“Cheesy Cheddar” is just another name for macaroni and cheese, in my opinion. That’s essentially all this Pasta Side is. The rotini pasta is simply soaked with a rich, cheddar sauce. That’s all I taste in this pasta side is the cheddar sauce, and it’s a mighty strong sauce …
Eight O’Clock Ponkana Powdered Juice Drink

Jelly Belly Very Cherry Pudding Snacks

Pizza Hut WingStreet All American Wings
Admittedly, I’m pretty finicky about my chicken and where I’ll get it from, be it a fast food place, formal sit down restaurant, or grocery store. I have a more limited palate where it’s concerned, and I grew up with it a certain way, so if it’s not …
Zulka Morena Cane Sugar (Non-GMO)

Baja Cafe: Mild Salsa
There’s nothing that remarkable about this salsa that I noticed. This salsa is like a lot of other salsas on the market and it doesn’t really do much that sets it apart from the other tomato-based salsas. It even comes up a little short in some regards. There are …
Starwest Botanicals Rooibos Cut and Sifted Organic Herbal Tea

Nescafe 3in1 strong
I really like coffee and all possible drinks made of coffee. I started drinking coffee rather late, when I was more than 20. It doesn’t seems to be late but today I see children 15 or 16 years old who have the habit of drinking coffee so I consider …

Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Tin Roof Sundae

Publix Strawberry and Almond Cheesecake
I can’t be certain of who introduced me to the Publix strawberry and almond cheesecake, but I give them many thanks for doing so.
