Cottee’s Coola Lime Flavoured Cordial
I have been drinking Cottee’s flavoured cordial since I was a young child. Even now as an adult, I find that I still drink it on a daily basis. I don’t really like plain water on it’s own, so I find that Cottee’s cordial is the perfect …
Marie Callender’s Turkey Breast with Stuffing
I’ve eaten other Marie Callender turkey products before, but they aren’t big favorites, though. In fact, I purchase them sparingly. It’s not because of taste, but because of one part of the meals that I don’t like — the gravy. This specific item, Marie Callender’s Turkey …
Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls to be pretty much standard fare. By standard fare, I mean that there is nothing that really sets these Swiss Rolls apart from those made by other companies. In fact, Little Debbie offers a packaged variety of Swiss Rolls that have different fillings …
Leephick Green Tea
Leephick Brand Teas is not really popular but they are really good to go as one of the best green teas I have ever tasted. This comment is for the packed tea bags that are really to drink after a few minutes of letting it set on your teacup. …
Cranberry Raspberry Juice (Kirkland Signature)
Juice in big gallon containers from Costco. That’s what this is. Surely you who go to Costco now know that anything “Kirkland Signature” means COSTCO and ginormous amounts of whatever it is, and in this case it is juice. I bought this for our housewarming party. …
Jell-o Gelatin - Watermelon
Jell-o Gelatin - Watermelon variety is a deliciously rich gelatin treat that offers the flavor of watermelon in a very big way. The flavor is just as one might expect from something that is supposed to have a watermelon flavor. It is quite authentic and real, and that is …
Little Debbie Devil Cremes Cakes
I like these Little Debbie Devil Cremes Cakes! I find them to be really very delicious! The chocolate cake is rich and moist and quite tasty, and the creme in the middle is deliciously rich as well! The two flavors compliment each other really very well and make for …
Baker’s Corner White Frosting
Baker’s Corner White Frosting comes in a sixteen ounce tub for one dollar and twenty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. This white frosting is about thirty cents cheaper, or more depending on the store, than the name brand white frostings. What’s even better is I can’t taste the …
Banquet Cheesy Smothered Charboiled Patty Meal
While growing up and learning to live on my own budget, I used to purchase Banquet frozen dinners by the truckload sometimes because they were just so cheap and the taste wasn’t all that bad. But as the years went on, I soon moved onto other kinds of meals. …
Vigo Italian Style Breadcrumbs
I love to cook and I don’t mind admitting I use a few shortcuts.
Here’s one of the best–one of the essentials, in my kitchen. Vigo Italian style breadcrumbs with romano cheese. This stuff saves me so much time and trouble, and makes my foods fantastic. There are so many …
Banquet Pork Patty Meal
I’ve tried a great many TV dinners because I need some very quick lunch options, so when I was in my local grocery store last week and saw Banquet had a new pork patty meal I had to try it. It’s the usual small portion of meat and gravy, with …
Corazonas Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips
I admit up front that I’m not much of a health-conscious eater. I grew up on junk and processed foods, so most of the ‘good for you’ foods just don’t agree with my taste buds. Last year, though, I became acquainted with the Corazonas brand. It’s …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding is a flavor variety that does not appeal to me too much. There is nothing wrong with the pudding itself though - it is just as smooth and creamy as the other pudding varieties, the flavor however is not quite for me. I …
Cascadian Farm Organic Chewy Granola Bars Fruit and Nut
As I am getting older, I am gradually becoming more and more health conscious of what I eat. I believe it is increasingly more important to mind your health and what you eat as you get older. For this reason I try to keep a variety of healthier type …
Bertolli frozen Dinners

Red Hot & Blue Restaurant
Red Hot & Blue Restaurant is primarily a restaurant that specializes in barbecue. Specialize is the right word, too, because I person feel that this barbecue restaurant offers some pretty tasty and satisfying barbecue sandwiches! They have other items on the menu for those that are not too crazy …
Entenmann’s Eclairs
Although Entenmann’s Eclairs are not nearly as good as say the eclairs that are sold fresh in the bakeries, I find them to be relatively decent enough to have perhaps once or twice a year. The flavor is by no means so intense that your taste buds will go …
Glaceau Smart Water
SmartWater is vapor distilled, nutrient enhanced water. The bottlers have added calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and potassium bicarbonite. One day I’ll google these ingredients to learn what they do for my body.
The water has a very crisp taste and doesn’t have to be chilled to …
Hostess Fruit Pies - Blackberry
Like the pineapple variety, here is yet another variety that you do not see too often: blackberry! These Hostess Fruit Pies - Blackberry variety offer a pretty authentic blackberry flavor that I do enjoy. What I do not enjoy is the horrendous crust that really detracts from my enjoyment …

5 sugar free gum, Elixir flavor is a very wonderfully flavoured gum! It is fruity and delicious. It is in the traditional stick form, unlike the more popular tiny sticks seen in other gums. The packaging is very nice too. Sleek black package with a …
Sweet Memories of Cebu Philippine Brand Mango Juice Nectar
I really enjoy this subtly sweet mango juice nectar, either chilled or at room temperature.
I find that this mango juice nectar is delicious straight from the can. I like that it is a thick juice that feels smooth going down my throat. I enjoy Philippine Brand Mango Juice Nectar …
C&H Powdered Sugar
I actually picked C&H powdered sugar accidently while looking for normal granulated sugar. But after using it I now feel that C&H powdered sugar has served my purposes quite well. The good thing about C&H powdered sugar is that its is clean and pure white. I am surprised to …
Britania cream treat
My son is the great fan of cream biscuits. He loves and enjoys all kind of cream biscuits, but when I bought the Britannia treat cream biscuits, he enjoyed the taste of it very much. Britannia is a very big and famous company, which produces much kind …

L’oven Fresh Mini Muffins Blueberry
These mini muffins were okay, although they didn’t really satisfy me to the point where I wanted to rush out and purchase another package once they were all gone. There’s nothing really wrong with these mini muffins, they’re just pretty average, maybe slightly above average. Perhaps the best quality …
Nescafe Original
It is interesting that Nescafe make different types of coffee in different countries. I didn’t realize this until I bought some recently in Spain and found that it was a stronger blend than the one we buy in Britain. Of course, it could be that it is due to …
Stouffer’s Chicken ala King with Rice (frozen entree)
I was a bit leery about trying this particular meal, as I’d never had Chicken ala King before. I’ve been told that it’s very similar to the filling that is found in chicken pot pies. But the picture on the cover of the box didn’t …
Roundys Tomato Paste
I love buying these little six ounce cans of tomato paste from my local Pick N Save. They are almost always in stock and I know it is a brand I can rely on. With this soy allergy I have, I have to be extremely careful what I buy. …
Kraft Miracle Whip Sandwich Spread
Who doesn’t like mayonnaise? I’ve grown to like mayonnaise because of its versatility. But having a plain mayonnaise, at some point, brings about dullness. There’s one I’ve discovered, which is more than your ordinary mayonnaise—” Kraft Miracle Whip Sandwich Spread. What makes it different from a typical one, Kraft …
L’Angelica Herbal tea
I bought this tea by accident, I usually buy another herbal tea from this brand and as they were all on discount and I took three packages I guess one box was misplaced among these teas that I usually buy so I took it not even noticing it. The …
Lady’s Choice Sandwich Spread
Lady’s Choice is a sandwich filling by Unilever. The mayonnaise from it is cholesterol free and made from the best ingredients which are rich in Omega-3. There are different variants of it but the one I’ll be reviewing is the Lady’s Choice Sandwich Spread.
If there’s something that can make …
Millville Apple Cinnamon Crispy Oats
I feel that the name of this cereal is not very appropriate because I do not feel that there is much apple cinnamon flavor at all and also the cereal is only slightly crispy, but also a little on the soft side, and this is all without milk. This …
Bel Air’s Capitol Sandwich
Bel Air’s Capitol Sandwich had some good and bad points to it. This is one of the chain’s products that is available in their deli department, and I was looking forward to because of the ingredients.
However, right off the bat, I was really turned off because the bun …

Roasted & Salted Sunflower Nuts
Good Sense Roasted & Salted Sunflower Nuts come in a resealable plastic bag. I bought a 10 oz bag for something like $1.38, which I thought was a good price. The nuts come already peeled, so you won’t have to worry about that (although I know some people who …

Before I talk about the most …
Grandma Corbi’s Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough
My husbands little half brother was selling Grandma Corbi’s Homemade cookie dough as a fundraising program for their soccer team I believe it was. The rest of the cookies for sale on the fundraising sheet didn’t look very good and the Chocolate Chunk cookie dough wasn’t as expensive as …
Qwesos
I think the best snack in the world is a cheese-it. Also known as a spice cheese it. They call it a qweso. I will give you some reasons to eat one.
The first reason is that a qweso is like a cheesy cracker. You just …
Millville Fruit and Grain Cereal Bars Apple Cinnamon

Subway sandwiches
Subway sandwiches are as healthy as they claim to be. When you order a Subway sandwich though, there are some important things to remember if you are watchig your calorie intake.

Derby blue Zero Ace 1,5L

Twinings earl grey tea
I like tea a lot, but I am a little picky when it comes to choose one brand or another. Twinings, so far, is a tea brand that has never disappointed me with their dozens of varieties, and this time I am going to talk about their earl grey.
First …

Peppridge farm rye bread may be the most expensive however, taste and quality is what you want when it comes to rye bread, and this certainly is the best you will ever try. You can freeze it and wehn it defrost it taste even better, does not get …
HEALTH:LET US TALK ABOUT COKE
I like to drink diet Pepsi sometimes, but, I am revising my thinking on just how safe THAT is.
Did you realize that in order for the big trucks to carry concentrated coke, they must do it in a hazzardous materials truck, signed as such? O.K. so, maybe you think …
Scooby’s
This fast food chain is a local counterpart of McDonald’s or Jollibee. Mostly of this company’s products are of similar in content and presentation of those famed fast-foods I just mentioned above.
When I was still new to this place and just …
Horlicks Malties
It has been forever since I had a taste of Horlicks candies. The last time I was able to eat it was when I was probably 8 years old and now I am already in my 30’s! When I had a recent trip to Zamboanga City’s barter market, I …
