Hormel Compleats: Chicken Marinara
Hormel Compleats continue to bring out new varieties that lure me to try them. The more success I have, the more I am willing to try something new with them. The latest one I decided to taste was their Chicken Marinara.
What I enjoy about Hormel Compleats is …
Munchies
Sometimes I get bored with the regular chips and pretzels that lack variety and want a snack that is on fire to make my taste buds water. By eating a variety of snacks mixed together I can get satisfied pretty quickly and will not have to eat …
Ferrero Nutella
Being someone who loves sweets I had heard a lot about Ferrero Nutella but it took me a long time before I actually purchased a bottle of this heavenly mixture. I always used to see it being used on cooking shows and I even ate snacks with chocolate hazelnut …
Marpo squashes
Marpo squashes are the concentrated juices of many flavours. Actually during summer or during the hot days the juices are the best drinks, which all the people do prefer to have it. The Marpo squashes are the new kind of squashes that I saw in the super …
Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake
I feel that Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake is worthy of being purchased if you are someone that enjoys the flavor combination of vanilla and chocolate. Although there is certainly more vanilla to this marble cake than chocolate, both flavors I feel are still represented well and both flavors come …
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Original
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Original is a cross between a potato chip and a pretzel. It is actually just a pretzel in the shape and texture of a potato chip. This means that unlike a lot of pretzels sold, these pretzels are thinner and more brittle - …
Lucozade Orange Energy Drink
I truly hate consuming energy drinks because of all the bad publicity they get and because I know of people who have either died or gotten very ill as a result. The only time I drink them these days is unless I truly have no choice, which means I’m …
Udi’s gluten free bread
Several years ago we found out that our son has wheat AND dairy allergies. We had to find a bread that he could eat. Like most kids he lives on peanut butter and jelly (believe it or not he is not allergic to peanut butter). After trying several different …
Aunt Jemima Ham & Cheese Omelet
I’m usually in a hurry in the mornings so I spend a great deal of money on pre-made frozen breakfasts.
One of those breakfasts happened to be the Ham & Cheese Omelet from Aunt Jemima. When I bought it, I figured it would turn out very dry and unappetizing but …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp
The Café Steamers sounds like a nice concept —“ the steam of the sauce warms up food components above. Some of the varieties sounded very appealing and I wanted to try every one of them. I started with the Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp. You get …
Yogi Sweet Tangerine Positive Energy Herbal Tea
Once in awhile I do not sleep well at nighttime and in the morning I really wake up sleepy and sluggish, which is not good because I have to be on my game at work. One of the ways I help boost my energy levels naturally is with the …
Apple Cinnamon Company
I, like most people, currently have a basket full of candles that either I selected on a whim or came as gifts from others. I usually end up throwing away most of them either because I do not like the scent or because the color of the candle does …
Best Choice Canned Whole Wild Blueberry Pie Filling
The economy in the United States has certainly not recovered yet. As such, I am always looking for ways to save money. I have found that our family is able to save a lot of money at the grocery store simply by purchasing generic products instead of high priced …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Five Cheese
I don’t care what brand I try, be it Pepperidge Farm, New York Style, Mama Cozzi’s, whatever, they all offer a five cheese Texas Toast and they all stink. When something reads “Five Cheese”, I personally think I’m in for something that’s going to be super cheesy, rich in …
Lays Kettle Cooked Mesquite BBQ Extra Crunchy
Lays Kettle Cooked Mesquite BBQ Extra Crunchy are potato chips that I will not purchase again for a couple of reasons. First of all, this potato chip just strikes me as being too sweet. I feel that barbecue should not be this sweet. I also found that the sweet …
Raley’s Fine Foods Sesame Hamburger Buns
Raley’s Fine Foods Sesame Hamburger Buns are the latest of the store brand that I’ve tried. I was skeptical and didn’t break down to try the hamburger buns until they went on sale a couple of months ago. The reason for my skepticism is that one of …
Creamed Peas
Today for lunch, I had creamed peas as a side dish. The person who made it, showed me what to do. She said to take about a cup of milk, and heat it on the stove top, with a stick of butter. When the butter is …
Fast Break Bar
Yesterday I had a fast break candy bar for the first time. The Fast Break looks like a snickers bar, but it has a layer of nougat, and then a layer of peanut butter, and then the whole thing in covered in chocolate. I had never had one before …
Welch’s Fruit Snacks in Fruit Punch
Okay so I just got a different flavor fruit snacks and I totally love them. This time I got Welch’s Fruit Snacks in Fruit Punch. They taste just like fruit punch it is amazing. They come in fruit shapes and a bright red color. They also contain a few …
Mrs. Freshley’s Red Velvet Creme Cakes
I did not find anything all that remarkable or special about Mrs. Freshley’s Red Velvet Creme Cakes. I really did not find anything at all, actually, when it came to this snack. Just like with the pink snowballs, the food coloring makes for an attractive eye catcher, but other …
Wilkins Distilled Drinking Water
My 9 month old old daughter’s pediatrician recommended Wilkins Distilled Drinking Water. Since my baby’s birth, we have been using Wilkins in feeding my baby, whether she drinks plain water or mixed with her formula milk. I realized this product must be very good for our doctor to recommend …
Monster Energy Drink
Monster Energy is the one drink that gives you a rush of adrenaline and taste. The Drink is formulated for energy, using sugar and caffeine. It may not be the best drink for you, but it certainly works. Monster also delivers a taste to match the quality of this …
McDonald’s Apple Pies
McDonald’s has been making these for a while but I just recently decided to try them. These apple pies are fantastic and I love being able to purchase them from a fast food restaurant. I love apple pie but I was a bit skeptical about trying these …
Cheez Wiz Spread
I feel rich whenever my mom bring home Cheez Wiz Spread because it tastes like real cheese. I grow up with this spread and on the other sandwich spread. I prefer the regular and original one compare to other flavor, as the taste do not change until now. I …
Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats
It is a shame that the only thing that generally separates one marshmallow treat from another are the colors. These Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats are no different really from the other Little Debbie marshmallow treats which in turn are no different from Rice Krispies treats. This …
Magnolia Blueberry Cheesecake Pinipig Crunch
I love ice cream and I love cheese cake. These are two of my favorite foods. I was in the grocery when my son asked for an ice cream. That�s when I saw a Magnolia Blueberry Cheesecake Pinipig Crunch. I immediately got one and another flavor for my …
Jell-o Gelatin - Orange/Lemon-Lime
Jell-o Gelatin - Orange/Lemon-Lime is a totally scrumptious and quite rich treat to enjoy and I am very much satisfied with the taste of this delicious fruit gelatin. Both the orange and the lemon-lime flavors taste exactly as I thought they would and so the taste of these …
Bake and Churn (Robinsons Metro East)
This is not actually a restaurant, it is just a small stall or cart but their products are surprisingly delicious. So what I’m going to review now is their ice cream cakes that I love. (And it will be also your must add this to your “must try” list.)
Bake …
Fresh Basket Farms Duck Egg
I bought this half a dozen duck egg at the nearest grocery store which is located at Hypercity Mall in Malad. I was happy to see a duck egg because I really long to try and taste it even if I was able to eat duck eggs long time …
Great Value Peas
We needed to stock up on some canned goods this past weekend because it had been a month or so since we went grocery shopping and, quite honestly, we were running very low.
One of the things we picked up was canned peas. We did this because it is the …
Soymilk
After trying soymilk for the first time, I am hooked! The taste is so smooth and delicate that I can’t seem to get enough of it. There are a few different brands out there, Silk and 8th Continent to name a couple. I have tried …
Lasco Frosted Flakes Cereal
Even though I am slightly more health conscious as of late when it comes to eating since I am in my early twenties after all, THere is still that healthy foods and cereals for breakfast. One of these cereals is the “Lasco Frosted Flakes Cereal.” There are several reasons …
Mackays Lime and Lemon Marmalade
It is a zesty bread spread that I haven’t tasted before so I was able to buy Mackays Lime and Lemon Marmalade. It was my first time to taste this jam and it was really great. I saw it for the first time being offered when we were having …
Chahine Supermarket
I spent my weekend driving around Calgary stocking up on ingredients for ethnic dishes that I was planning to cook over the next weeks. One of the joys of Calgary is the many ethnic markets in the city, and the best Middle Eastern market, in my opinion and according …
Jack & Jill Pretzels Chocolate Sticks
Chocolate has always been one of my favorite foods. I’ve already tasted Jack & Jill Pretzels ever since I was a child, and I still still it until now. It’s just a cheap chocolate stick pretzel, but it’s very good. I like it when it’s cold. So, every time …
ACT II -Movie Theater Butter popcorn
Not really a popcorn lover, I do occasionally enjoy a bag of it, when I’m not in the mood for a heavier snack. And even more infrequently do I eat it during the movies. But if I AM going to have it, I prefer anything that …
Michelina’s Swedish Meatballs
For some reason, I gambled on buying Michelina’s Swedish Meatballs the other day. The price is right for Michelina’s frozen foods, even though they are Weight Watchers, which I know I don’t like. The thing is that I had one really good one of these and so …
Bisc M&M
I like m&m by theselves so when I heard there was a biscuit with them I just had to try it. M&M s are delitiuos so I was really wondering if this biscuit will be as delitious as tehy are or even better.
The box looks very appealing although it …
Trader Joe’s Chicken Chili with Beans
This item is a somewhat unique take on chili, substituting chicken for the ground beef. I have always liked chicken chili, so when I saw it in the store I picked it up.
I was expecting this chili to be a little different than it was. I was thinking the …
Jennie O ground Turkey
Being a college student, I’m always looking for a good way to save some money without sacrificing my lifestyle. I’m a big fan of tacos, and I was recently introduced to ground turkey, most of the time Jennie O, if it’s in stock.
I can get Jennie O ground turkey …
The Co-operative Cheese and Onion Quiche
I got a bargain today because I managed to buy one of The Co-operative’s own brand cheese and onion quiche for only 63p because it was nearly out of date, but I have 24 hours to eat it which should not be a problem. Usually, they retail at …
Drumstick Ice Cream Treats - With Sprinkles
Drumstick cones have been around for a long time without any changes - they are a standard sugar cone filled with ice cream, except for a bit of fudge in the bottom, then dipped in chocolate and rolled in peanuts. This formula has worked well for years, but …
Del Monte Pasta Italiana
Del Monte Pasta Italiana
Of all the local brands of Pasta I have only one brand to trust. It is Del Monte Pasta Italiana. I have tried many other local brands but I always go back to Del Monte. I could remember how a cheaper brand that …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate is a delicious variety that I feel will appeal to chocolate lovers and even those that only have a lukewarm taste for chocolate, like myself. This chocolate pudding is so very rich and real in flavor that it is very easy to just keeping …
The Co operative Fairtrade Gold Roast Instant Coffee
I gave quite a bad review of the Co-operative’s Fairtrade Instant Coffee, but this is the ‘Gold Roast’ which implies a better quality instant coffee. This is a freeze dried coffee ‘for a smooth, rich flavour’ so I was hopeful it was going to be better. This …
Heinz organic Biscotti
I always bring Heinz biscuit with me whenever I go out to travel with my baby since it is difficult travelling on the road with somebody crying all the time because of a hungry stomach. One thing I like about this food is that my baby loves eating …
Al Haaq’s Potato Salad
I absolutely love potato salad and when I started working at my current job all the workers and even the boos kept on talking about Al Haaq’s BBQ food. I put it off for a long time but one evening I finally gave in and bought a box of …
Taco Bell Cantina Tacos - Shredded Chicken
The new Cantina tacos at Taco Bell are just over $2 each, but do come in a combination meal for $6 including a drink. With the heavy advertising centered on the double-thick soft corn tortilla shells, fresh cilantro, lime, and deliciously seasoned meats, I felt compelled to at …
Kraft Macaroni and Cheese
One of my absolute favorite foods is macaroni and cheese. This is one food that I could never get sick of. Possibly the most well-known boxed macaroni and cheese is made by Kraft. Probably more people by this type than any of the generic types of …
