Whiteway’s Peardrax
It’s been a long time since I had a drink of Whiteway’s Peardrax. But yesterday while I was out yesterday the sun was extremely hot and I decided to get myself a drink. I choose a small bottle of Whiteway’s Peardrax from the cooling fridge.
As I opened the bottle …

Sundae Shoppe Sundae Nut Cones Caramel Core
Sundae Shoppe Sundae Nut Cones Caramel Core is a frozen dairy dessert that disappointed me. The one and only reason I was disappointed by these cones is due to the small amount of caramel that sits in the middle, or at the core, of the vanilla ice cream that …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Euro Shopper Corn Flakes
I found Euro Shopper Corn Flakes in my local convenience store and, although I did not have much faith in them being equalled to Kellogg’s in quality, I bought them anyway as there was no other choice. These were very cheap at only 79 pence for a 375g …
Stouffer’s Salisbury Steak
Stouffer’s Salisbury Steak is decent, although by no means magnificent or delicious. The steak has a fairly good flavor to it, although it is not quite as tender as I would have liked it to be. The onion gravy does help to moisten the steak and make it easier …
Lean Cuisine Chicken Enchilada Suiza
Lean Cuisine fills a niche in the American life. I cannot tell you if they sell it anywhere else because when I am abroad I don’t go looking for frozen food. You eat a Lean Cuisine usually because you are watching your weight and are either too …
Rocklea Chocolate (Milk Chocolate Rocklea Road)
My aunt who came from Australia brought this Rocklea Milk Chocolate Rocky Road. This was the first time I saw this kind of chocolates, and found it too big. The package says that is a combination of fluffy marshmallows, toasted peanuts and toasted coconut covered in chocolate. The package …

Dinty Moore Hearty Meals Canned Beef Stew Soup

Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco
When I hear the word Volcano I think of extremely hot lava that could burn anything before it even touches it, so when I bit into Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for the first time I felt like someone had lied to me. The taco was not hot at all, …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
One in a while I indulge myself and eat a sinfully delicious stack of pancakes. I cook for one, but most packaging are for several people. I was glad that I saw Magnolia Pancake Plus in a 200g packaging in the grocery. The label said that it can make …

Tai Pei Chicken Fried Rice
The picture on the box that the Tai Pei Chicken Fried Rice came in sure looked mighty appetizing. Large pieces of chicken, assorted vegetables and white rice all decorated the box. One fourteen point two ounce box cost three dollars, a price that I considered to be okay as …
Lean Cuisine Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
This is not the best flavored Lean Cuisine meal you can buy, but the portion size is good. Lean Cuisine describes this meal as: “Tender spaghetti served with a flavorful beef sauce made with tomatoes, sliced mushrooms and basil. Accented with garlic and black pepper.” It’s part of the …

Sainsbury’s Medium Cheddar Slices with Cracked Black Pepper
This medium cheddar cheese is particularly tasty as it has cracked black pepper strewn throughout it. What I like is that as I am eating it, I will bite one of the black pepper bits and some good heat hits my tastebuds. This was pretty economical cheese …

My husband and I have recently decided that although we are decent eaters, we need to further eat better; especially as a good influence for our 2 year old. My husband came home the other day and told me how he heard an advertisement on the radio for …

I love Diet Pepsi. I think that I am addicted. The problem is they are not good for you. I don’t know if it is the carbonation, the taste or the caffeine.
The label says that there are 0 calories, …
Great Value 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Based on my research, this is about the best oil that can be bought because of its heart-healthy properties. The extra virgin olive oil is supposed to reduce the levels of unhealthy cholesterol while promoting healthy cholesterol. This is of course when a person sticks to a diet that …
St Louis Bread Company Sourdough Bowl with Chicken Noodle Soup
I normally order the sourdough soup bowl with a cream-based soup, like creamy tomato or broccoli cheese. But this time, I decided to get something a little healthier and ordered the Chicken Noodle soup which is labeled as a low-fat choice. Other low-fat options for soup include …
Nestle’s Pure Life Water
Nestle’s Pure Life Water comes in four different flavors. Strawberry, orange, lemon and raspberry. It has enough flavoring to make the drink enjoyable and yet it is not over powering. One thing I personally like is that it does not have any extras added like carbonation or vitamins. Waters …
Magnolia Ice Cream
I don’t know why but for some reason, Magnolia Ice Cream is not as delicious as before. They have developed new flavors and varieties but to compare it with the flavors a decade ago , I can say that ten years ago, the ice cream tasted much better even …
Stouffer’s Cheese Manicotti
Stouffer’s Cheese Manicotti is a very enjoyable cheesy pasta meal that I like to have a couple of times a month. Although there is technically more cheese and sauce than noodles, I nonetheless find the triple flavor combination to be scrumptious and satisfying. The three cheeses offer up a …

Mee Siam
I used not to like Mee Siam. In case you are wondering what this is, it is actually a gravy type of noodles, but the very thin strips one. Not the thick noodles like your spaghetti, though.
The gravy has to be spicy for me and in …

I have tried and used many different types of pepper sauce since growing up over the years. A while back one of my family members introduced me to Enterprise’s Pepper Sauce and I have never looked back since then.
Enterprise Pepper Sauce has that kick that I have always been …

GreenMax Yam Nutritious Cereal
This is one very delicious cereal drink!

Mrs. Freshley’s Jelly Swirl Honey Bun

Starbuck’s Green Tea Frappe

Kashi Caramelized Onion All Natural Hummus Crips
Snacking is a guilty pleasure of mine. I try to kick the habit, but I find myself right back where I started. Usually munching on things that are satisfying to the tastes buds, but aren’t the healthiest. Often times it’s potato chips, or some other snack chip. Crunchy and …
Bake N’ Shake Barbeque Seasoning
