Novi Nocciolato fondente extra bitter chocolate with whole hazelnuts
Novi is an Italian chocolate although people usually think that it is Swiss, but it isn’t. I like Novi chocolate in general because they taste great, although the regular Novi chocolate is not as good as Novie Nocciolato. The difference is that Nocciolato has whole hazelnuts in it and …
Tokyo Tokyo’s Fried Chicken Karaage Sumo Remix
I really love Japanese foods. I really appreciate them.. but to tell you honestly, I am not a big fan of Tokyo Tokyo. Why? Well, for me it is over priced, and I don’t like their California maki.. It doesn’t taste nor look fresh at all. So I rather …
Tang Juice Powder
I think of all the Tang Juice Powders in the local market, Tang is one of the good brands. What I like about Tang is it is more flavorful and the taste is very close to natural fruit juice. This is perhaps the reason why Tang Juice Powder …
Turbo Tea
There are so many energy drinks on the market these days that it is pretty tough to tell them apart. Sometimes you can’t and you are left with the option of having to ‘taste test’ a number of them to find out which one is best for you. Of …

Wow talk about waking up to a terrific smell. I really like the smell of Maxwell House dark roast coffee when it is brewing in the coffee pot. The entire house fills up with the wonderful aroma of Maxwell House dark roast coffee. I also like …
Del Monte Sloppy Joe Sauce
Del Monte sloppy joe sauce is a cheaper alternative to the more famous Manwich sauce. Del Monte sloppy joe sauce is priced at about half the price of Manwich, which is what made my wife and I give it a try during a recent grocery visit.

Metromint - Orangemint Water
Metromint - Orangemint Water is a variety of flavored water that I enjoy, although I do not quite like it as much as the peppermint and spearmint varieties that are made by the same company. However, I do have this flavored water once a week generally because I still …

Kremi Grapenut Ice Cream Cake
Sometimes the ice cream truck passes by, and when we see it we almost never buy ice cream either because we don’t have the money, or I’m on another one of my diets or trying to cut down on the amount of dairy I’m eating. Well, this evening my …
Tesco Value Mallow Teacakes
These little mallow teacakes make a nice sweet snack and for an incredibly cheap price. These are from the ‘Tesco Value’ range which can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to quality, but these tea cakes are a definite hit, and for only 39 pence …

Swirls Ham Sandwich
Some time ago I had tried the Swirls Cheese Danish, and I was very dissatisfied with the results mainly because I thought something so simple had cost me virtually an arm and a leg in terms of money, when I could have bought something more satisfying for far less. …
Argentina Corned Beef Hot And Spicy
I have always loved eating corned beef for breakfast. It is one of the ultimate viand that I crave for. If combined with a few strips of bacon and freshly cooked garlic rice—my breakfast is complete. I prefer foreign brands. Two countries that has the best corned beef is Australia …
Great Value Pasta Sauce
I came home last night once again expecting leftovers for dinner. However, my wife apparently had other plans (unlike me, she has no problem throwing out uneaten food every Sunday) and, instead, was making spaghetti and meatballs.
Whenever I make spaghetti, I prefer making my sauce rather than using sauce …
Sugar Free Wannabe Cupcake from Just Delicious Bakery
This sugar free, deep chocolate, cream filled cupcake is called a Wannabe because of its resemblance to a Hostess Cupcake, but the resemblance is only superficial.
A package of Hostess Cupcakes has two cakes in it, actual weight about 4 ozs. I would always eat them both, doesn’t everyone? …

Private Selection Penne Rigate
Most of the time I buy rice pasta but it is not as easy to come by. I have to drive all the way to my closest Trader Joe’s, which isn’t too close or I have to pay too much for some online. Since I don’t have celiac disease …

Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Oreo
I find the Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Oreo variety to be a nice treat to have now and then. Although I like the double chocolate no bake dessert a little better, I really like to have this Oreo dessert too. I like this Oreo dessert because of the …
Sugar Free Crystal Light Frozen Pops- Lemondade and Raspberry Lemonade
Since I liked their other variety of popsicle, I decided to try Crystal Light Lemonade and Raspberry lemonade flavor. The other product was a pink lemonade and cherry/pomegranate flavored duo, which I liked very much. This pair was of the same quality. I did not care for the regular …
Nabisco Wheat Thins
Nabisco has been putting out Wheat Thins in a variety of flavors lately (parmesan & basil, ranch, etc.), but I love the original Wheat Thins. They have a very distinct whole grain flavor. The box boasts that they contain 11 grams of whole grain per serving. It is also …
Duncan Hines Perfect Size For 1 Confetti Mug Cake Mix
I love reading food blogs which is how I first came into the knowledge of cake mugs. The theory behind cake mugs is you create a cake batter cut down to fit inside of a mug or any microwavable cup. You then cook the batter in the microwave for about …
Nabisco Reduced Fat Oreo Cookies
I must admit that this purchase was a complete mistake. I’m afraid I’m becoming my mother, intending to pick up one thing and then accidentally getting the wrong thing. I didn’t realize my mistake until I bit into an Oreo. Instantly, I thought, “Huh? This …
Growers’ Nutribar
If you’re looking for a healthy alternative snack you should try Growers’ Nutribar. It was recommended to me by roommate who is into weight lifting. It looks like an energy bar but cheaper. A bar costs 14 Philippine Pesos (about 28 US cents) and box of six costs 80 …
Kettle Chips: New York Cheddar
Yum yum!! When I don’t want barbeque I so head for New York Cheddar. Most of the time. I love the tangy cheese that tastes like real sharp cheddar instead of the weird cheeselike orange powder one can find elsewhere. The chips are perfectly cooked too …
Earthly Choice Organic chia seeds
I’ve been trying to introduce different types of superfoods into my diet, but I’m not the kind of person who would eat something that tastes like s*** just because it’s heathy and supposedly good for me. I believe that you just need to find the foods that you like and …
Haldiram Rasmalai Bonbon Sweets
This was my very first time to eat Indian sweets and Rasmalai is one of them. I got curious on the white ball floating on syrup which I said to my hubby that he better buy me a can to sample and eat. It was readily available on stores …
Dilly Bars from Dairy Queen
I grew up going to Dairy Queen. It used to be everywhere, and it was just awesome food back in the day. One of my favorite treats as a child was their Dilly Bars. They were a little bigger back then and packaged differently than they …
Wegmans Grape Juice
As a person who frequently drinks juice, there are several different flavors, brands, and varieties that I like to drink. One such brand is Wegmans Grape Juice. Wegmans is a regional grocery store that produces a lot of their own products. The grape juice that the …

Munchies Traditional Mix
Munchies Traditional Mix is a pretty average, run of the mill type of mix that does not really do anything different or special to set it apart from the other snack mixes that can be found in grocery stores and supermarkets. It is actually a mix that is inferior …

What I …
Marie Callendar’s Frozen Dinners
One of my favorite TV dinner brands is Marie Callendar’s. This is going to sound weird, but these dinners don’t really taste like TV dinners, for the most part. Just because they go in the microwave doesn’t automatically make them bad. These dinners have a homestyle taste that I …
Starbucks Christmas Blend
Starbucks christmas blend is one of my favorite coffees that the company puts out. they generally only havethe coffe from november through december so when it hits the shelves i usually like to try and stock up to some extent. This is a really great slightly spicy …
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 …
Don Pablo’s All Natural Salsa
For quite some time now, I’ve been looking for the best salsa. I think I found it with Don Pablo’s. I got it at Walmart, and the price was very reasonable. I got the hot version, because I like my food spicy! With some of the other brands, you …

I love my ice cream and one of the ice creams I really enjoy having a bowl of after dinner is the Breyers Blasts Oreo Cookies and Cream Chocolate Ice Cream. This ice cream is loaded with large Oreo cookie pieces and has this unbelievably rich chocolate flavor to …
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 …
Magnum Almond Ice Cream Bar
There have been countless commercials advertising the magnum ice cream bars on television in the last few months. This was not the first time I saw them on television, but the novelty ice cream seemed like something I wanted to try. It is advertised as having Belgian chocolate over …
San Remo Macaroni and Cheese (Instant)
Some would say I’m a Macaroni and Cheese freak. I’ve sampled just about all of Kraft’s different variants. For me, a good serving has a hint of sharp cheddar. When I saw that San Remo had their own little packet of instant mac and cheese, I just had …
