Twining’s Black Currant Flavored Tea

Frying potatoes is kind of bothersome, as you have to use so much oil, it will jump in all directions, and someone has to clean that mess. That’s why when I found this fried potatoes for the microwave I had to try them.

Diet Dr. B
Visit just about any grocery store, and you are bound to find their own store brand generic rip-offs of main stream products, especially when it comes to sodas. Diet Dr. B is another: it is H-E-B’s store brand of the popular soda, Diet Dr. Pepper.
It is rare that …

KABBALAH ENERGY DRINK SUGAR FREE
Move over Red Bull, there’s a newer, cheaper player in the energy drink market.

Kabbalah is stronger in taste. It does not have the ultra dull taste sugar …
Chips Ahoy! with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Time and time again, it has been proven that peanut butter and chocolate go extremely well together. Reese’s candy pretty much thrives on this flavor combination. Nabisco has also taken advantage of this, releasing Peanut Butter Chips Ahoy where chocolate chips are put in peanut butter cookies.

Quickchow Bihon Guisado
To quench thirst, I only have to open the refrigerator and concoct my favorite iced tea; but when hunger couldn’t wait anymore, I would hastily prepare a sandwich or cook an instant noodle. Last weekend, I tried Quickchow Bihon Guisado, a type of instant noodle, for my breakfast at …
Bare Fruit 100% Organic Bake-Dried Cinnamon Apple Chips

Halloween is almost here again. Well, to be honest, it’s more than a month away at the time of this article’s writing, but already I’m craving my favorite Halloween treats. Usually I’m perfectly satisfied with generic and store brands, but Great Value candy corn was a disappointment.

Dannon Peach Passion Fruit Frusion Smoothie

Leona’s Apple Walnut cake
Leona’s is a locally owned bakeshop popular in Cebu City. When my mom wanted to bring me there to buy some locally made pastries and bread, I wasn’t too excited. But when we got there, I understood why she wanted to go.
I bought Leona’s Apple Walnut cake slice. For …
Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix
Although the Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix is not one that I will purchase again, I did find the hot chocolate mix to be relatively pleasant. What I liked about this hot chocolate mix is that unlike a lot of other hot chocolate mixes, this one had a …

Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers are pretty good, although I do wish that the actual peppers were crispier and crunchier as opposed to be somewhat on the soft and soggy side. Oh well, one can only expect so much from frozen meals, I suppose. The green peppers do have a pretty …
Bumble Bee Chunk Light Tuna In Water 5 Ounce Can
I’m not a big fish eater, but every once in a while I find myself craving a tuna fish sandwich. I like them a very particular way, though so I never order them out, I always make them myself. I like salt, pepper and plenty of lemon juice and …
Jack and Jill Piattos Cheese Snacks

Arctic Zero Rocky Road Trip Fit Frozen Dessert
So recently I wrote a negative review on the Arctic Zero’s Salted Caramel ice-cream and I was basically saying that Arctic Zero sucks in general. But then I changed my mind, actually, so I’m writing this review to make it up to the brand and say some better things about …
Jack-N-the-Box Monster Taco
The monster taco from Jack-n-the-box is like a bigger version of their regular taco. At least that’s what I would assume given that it costs the same amount as two of their regular tacos. When I was down south recently I had the chance to try a couple of …
Sunkist Green Tea
Buying a Sunkist Green Tea is a good decision not. I guess though it was just about Php13.00, or $0.30. This is how much it was sold in supermarkets; I just saw in some convenient stores they sell it for Php4.00 more. I just love trying out …
La Choy Chow Mein
I ended up buying some La Choy Chow Mein the other night because I was in the mood for Chinese food but didn’t want to spend a fortune and didn’t want to go through a big deal making it.
Well, this product did meet those two criteria, it was cheap …
Pace Chunky Salsa Medium
Flavorful salsas for dipping and recipes aren’t always easy to come by. I have had salsas in the past that were simply spicy or hot, but didn’t actually have much in terms of taste. I like salsa that not only has a kick to it but also has a …
Palastri sangiovese di Romagna - red wine
I recently tasted Palastri sangiovese di Romagna wine. It’s a red, medium bodied wine from Italy. I bought it because it was half price rather than because it had been recommended. I enjoyed it. It would go well with an evening meal but I enjoyed a glass …
