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.
I always order my sandwich to be made on a whole grain bread. If there is none available, try …
Mtn Dew Citrus Cherry soda
I tried the Mtn Dew Citrus Cherry flavor of soda. All I can say is—¦YUK! This soda I can honestly say tasted worse to me than nasty cough medicine!
This is a limited-time offering from Pepsi that was inspired by the video game called World of Warcraft. …
Saffal frozen pees
Who does not like to eat the recepies made using the fresh pees. But the fresh pees are only available in particular seasons. But now we don’t need to worry because now we can get the Saffal frozen pees, which are sold in the shops. These …
Starbucks Green Tea Frappuccino
For a green tea addict such as myself, Starbucks’ green tea frappuccino is the perfect summer replacement for the similar green tea latte. Sweet and milky with a chill temperature, I’d even go as far as to compare the green tea frappuccino to ice cream (not necessarily green tea …
Mang Bok’s Manok
I love Chicken! I love them grilled, barbequed, fried, and cooked with sauce. Here in the country, we love lechon manok. It is similar to roasted chicken meals abroad and people always set aside money to buy roasted chicken whenever there are occasions. Chicken Roasters have become popular with …

Have you visited the frozen section of your local grocery store lately? If you have then you may have noticed a vast variety of exotic cuisine popping up. Last night I decided to give Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer General Tso’s Chicken a
try. Here are my thoughts:
Now I am not …
Capri-Sun Berry Breeze
When I hear the words Capri-suns I know I am going enjoy a nice refreshing drink. Who doesn’t enjoy the convent little pouches (well besides my husband who still can’t figure out how to put a straw in without poking a hole on the other side). They are light …
Rechecks Food Pride Deli Pizza

Buddig Turkey Lunch Meat
I am a loving fan of Buddig lunch meat. After trying their honey ham I was curious about their Turkey deli meat. I usually stick to Oscar Myers but as a person with an open mind I like try different things out. Often times I turn into Turkey meat …
Ashirwad iodised salt
My mother uses the Ashirwad iodised salt in our house to prepare the food. Actually this salt is iodised, and is very good for the health. Our body needs the proper quantity of iodine every day and that we can get by using the Ashirwad iodised salt. …

Cowgirl Chocolates
I first heard of Cowgirl Chocolates on someone’s blog. I wasn’t very enthusiastic because I’m not really the cowgirl type. But upon further investigation, I realized that Cowgirl Chocolates are far from the usualy chocolates with a cowgirl logo. These are very unique chocolates– delicious chocolates …
Sun-Maid Raisins
Every since I was a kid, I remember eating these great Sun-Maid Raisins. These raisins taste very good and make a great snack. Another thing that is great about these raisins is that they make a healthy snack. I rather eat Sun-Maid Raisins than candy or something that’s not …
Sam’s Market (Berkeley, CA next to campus)
One of my favorite places hands down to go eat at in Berkeley. There are very few people who I have also talked to that disagree that Sam’s is an amazing store. Being brought onto the crucial telegraph space next to Walgreens a few years ago, it is one of …
Asda and their Smart Price Coffee granules
I love my instant coffee and can drink it all day long, but have always been a bit of a coffee ’snob’ when it comes to brands. In the past I have always used Nescafe or Maxwell House granules, and even if short of cash I have got the …

While I love my healthy foods, and the good feeling that comes from eating them, I crave chocolate, sweet, salty good treats just as much. The 100 Calorie Snack Pack of chocolate covered pretzels are very satisfying for all of the cravings people can get for foods without having …
Entenmann’s Pineapple Pie
Craving some pastry, I had recently purchased Entenmann’s Pineapple Pie at our local Walmart. It was small, only 4.75 oz a one-person size. The pie came nicely packaged in a white box with a picture of a pineapple on it and a plastic window that allowed to see …
Blue Bunny Premium Butter Pecan Ice Cream

Blue Bonnet Margarine
Blue bonnet margarine is a great butter alterative for cooking I have found. I typically only use butter when I make baked good like cookies and cakes but recently was encouraged by a friend to give margarine a try. I have been pretty impressed with the quality I have …

Sunraysia Pear juice
At first glance, it may seem that Sunraysia Pear Juice is a waste of money, and is extremely expensive. While it is quite expensive, at $3.00 Australian dollars for 250ml, you must not forget that quality is very important, and when you buy this drink, not only are you …
McDoanld’s Double Cheese Burger
One of my favorite items on the dollar menu at McDonald’s is the McDonald’s Double Cheese Burger. This is a great burger that tastes really good and is very cheap. I only spend 1 dollar and I get pretty full with one of these burgers. I really like the tastes …
Morrisons Cream of Tomato Soup
Creamed tomato soup is my absolute favourite type of soup. Tomato tastes too tart for me without the cream, but with the cream to smooth out that lovely flavour, I just love it. I tried out this one from Morrisons own brand and the fact that it …

My kids just love eating Nestle Honey Stars for their daily breakfast. Even I as an adult can’t help but eat this wonderful and healthy snack as well. The packaging is nice and labels are easy to understand. It is jampacked with vitamins and minerals that can help my …

Nestle Hot Cocoa Mix - Double Chocolate Meltdown
It’s been a while since I’ve purchased hot cocoa, but since I’m economizing by keeping my heat off most of the time, I thought I’d get some more to help warm me up during those colder moments of the day and/or night. I decided to purchase Nestle Hot …
Domino’s Veg burger
Whenever we go to the multiplex theatre to watch the movies or for shopping there is a place or spot, which we never miss and that is the Domino�s veg burger. One is vegetarian and simple and another Domino�s burger comes with the hot chicken stuff. Both …
Bavaria Non-Alcoholic Drink
There are very few non-alcoholic drinks like Bavaria around. Sparkling water can be rather expensive. Thus Bavaria provides a cheaper alternative which comes in a bottle or a can. One can of Bavaria is comparable in price to a can of Coke. We bought the Bavaria cans of drinks …
Sweet Talk Bubble Tea
Sweet Talk Bubble Tea is very delicious! This is a bubble tea shop that sells beverages of any kind; you name it, they have it. Actually there are lots of bubble tea shops around and I really have no idea why these types of beverage shops are called …
Ham and Cheese Sub from The Chocolate Factory
This is one of my all-time favorite submarine sandwiches. It is not very big but it is very filling. The sandwich is about seven or eight inches long and cut in half. It also tastes very good. The Chocolate Factory is on the second floor of the Grand Avenue …
DiGiorno For One - Supreme Pizza
I must admit that where pizza is concerned, I’m basically a sausage and pepperoni type. I have flings from time to time with Canadian Bacon or something, but when I buy it, I tend to stick with what is tried and true. I’ve already reviewed DiGiorno For …
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 …
Food Lion Creamy Peanut Butter
Peanut butter is one of the items that I keep in my kitchen cupboard at all times. I never get tired of eating peanut butter sandwiches or peanut butter and crackers. I also like eating a spoonful in the morning, because it gives me just enough energy …
Linessa Mozzarella Light
I have never used Mozzarella very much but I have been trying to be more adventurous lately and I wanted to try Mozzarella in a wrap, although I did not know whether it would be a success or not. I was glad to be able to buy a …
Diana Power Mint
I think mints are a common thing, but as time progressed they began to evolve. Different types of mints, hard, soft, chewy and now different flavours!
Here in Trinidad they had recently brought out a new type of mint made by the Diana Candy Company. This new mint is named …
Noel Dux Original Crackers
When I first saw the Noel Dux Original Crackers snack one day, the first thing that came to my mind was a particular snack called “Club Social” that used to be popular when I was much younger in the nineties, because the packaging looked similar. However, it was only …
Bigelow Plantation Mint Tea
I typically love mint teas, and decided to try Bigelow’s Plantation Mint tea. It smells great while hot, and the first few sips are very pleasant. I usually add about two teaspoons of sugar, which brings out the mint flavor a bit more. And although the …
Morrisons Milk Chocolate Ovals
These Milk Chocolate Ovals from Morrisons own brand can be described as a downmarket version of that confectionary I have not had for ages called, I think, Minstrels. If I have got the name right, Minstrels are those flattish milk chocolate buttons covered in a shiny, hard candy …
Kashi GoLean Chewy Cookies and Cream Protein and Fiber Bar
Kashi often makes good and healthy cereals and snacks. When I bought this product, I was looking for something that would taste indulgent and still be healthful.
I like the fact that this bar uses a lot of whole grains and whole grain flours as ingredients, including oat flour, …
Maruchan Instant Shrimp Lunch
Anyone who has attended college know the golden rules of survival: Know someone who crouch you may need to crash on; know someone with a washer and dryer; and purchase the thirty-five cent noodles to feast on.
I had been aware of the shrimp noodles in the pack, but I …
Ice Mountain Water
Ice Moutain water is my favorite brand of water on the market. It has never dissapointed me. Whenever I am thirsty Ice Mountain water is the first thing I look forward to drinking, it is just so refreshing, and just tastes very clean. Ever since I have been drinking …
Honey Bunches of Oats Cereal
What’s not to like about Honey Bunches of Oats cereal? I love it! We bought Almond and Strawberry and both are delicious! The Strawberry was a little sweeter than the almond, but a bowl of half and half is amazing.
What I liked about it was the honey flavour accenting …
Baked Wotsits Cheesy Snack
I do love my snacks and crisps. One of my favourites is made by Walkers the famous crisp people in the United Kingdom, Wotsits. This strange little snack is made from maize, vegetable oil, cheese flavour, (dried cheese 7%), milk lactose, flavour enhancer, colours (paprika extract, annatto) natural flavourings, …
