Planters Trail Mix Spicy Nuts & Cajun Sticks
Although this trail mix has the word “spicy” in its name, I really don’t find this trail mix to be overly spicy. There’s a definite degree of hotness and sharpness to the trail mix, but it’s not enough to really set my mouth on fire or anything. It’s kind …
Chef Boyardee Pizza Maker: Cheese
Chef Boyardee Pizza Maker is a pizza kit I decided to try one evening with one of my younger relatives. I’ve never heard of such a thing from Chef Boyardee until coming over to my grandma’s house. The thought of it was kind of weird because I’m used …

Quality House Extra Dry Gin
I drink Gin and Tonic when we are entertaining friends, but it is difficult to find a decent dry Gin, unless you buy Quality House Extra Dry Gin. It is 35% alcohol, and I usually purchase the smaller bottle of 200 ml.

Ben and Jerry’s Chunky Monkey ice cream

G7 Coffee - Ca Phe Hoa Tan (Vietnamese Coffee)

Pringles Select Potato Crisps - Parmesan Garlic

Purefoods Chunkee Corned Beef

Campbell’s Microwave Chicken Noodle Soup
What’s that old wives tale? If you get a cold or are sick, eat some chicken noodle soup and you’ll feel better. Strange as it sounds, I’ve found that to be true. Oddly, I’m not a big chicken noodle eater, except when I’m sick, and the …

Starbuck’s Frappuccino (cold drink) Coffee Taste
Cold coffee drinks are one of my addictions. So whe I saw one of them produced by Starbucks, I just had to try. The little devil of 250ml costed me €1,89 (about $2) at a Belgian supermarket. Not cheap, but compared to the prices of Starbucks drinks in their …
Oral Fixation Mints Fabulous Fruit
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 …

Canada Olympic Games 2010 Cookies
Wow, these Olympic Games companies are milking it for all they are worth, aren’t they? I’ve seen T shirts, sweat shirts, jackets, sweat pants, track suits, and now cookies? Really, how are cookies even related to the Games? I got this as a Christmas gift from my boss this …
Nut Farms Australia Fancy Cashews

Starbucks Via Ready Brew, Italian Roast
I don’t really go to Starbucks anymore, but when I did I was always into their dark roasts like Sumatra or Italian roast. I haven’t had instant coffee in even longer, because it isn’t the best tasting coffee usually. Instant is something I felt I had moved on from. …
Innocent Smoothies - kiwi, apples and lime flavour

Pizza Hut WingStreet Wedge Fries

Velveeta Cheese Sauce Box Packets

Kellogg’s Special K Bars: Blueberry
Do you like blueberries? If you do, these Special K bars will be quite the treat! I will say though that they are pretty gosh darn sweet, so keep that in mind. I like both blueberries and sweet stuff, so for me, the combination of those two things in …

Freschetta Thin Crust Chicken & Spinach Pizza
I mentioned in an earlier review that we bought a couple of pizzas from the Freschetta brand. I was unhappy with the first pizza, a so-called 10-topping pizza, but hoped I would enjoy the unique flavor of the other pizza we bought; a chicken and spinach pizza.
I was wrong …

Sonoma Lights Cigarettes

Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Three Meat Sicilian Flatbread
