Quaker Marshmallow Fruity Ohs Breakfast Cereal
I generally don’t buy sugar coated cereals , especially those that have quite a bit of artificial colouring added since they’re unhealthy and the older I get is the more likely these things will affect me. Nevertheless, recently I decided to lay down my rules for a little and …
Campbell’s Soup at Hand : Cream of Broccoli
I like having something nice and warm to drink halfway through my day, and I decided to try Campbell’s Soup at Hand for a somewhat cheaper and quicker alternative to heading down to the cafe every day. The first flavor I tried was Cream of Broccoli.
First off, the …
Chocolate Chip Cookies
When I was a little girl, I remember that my mother loved to bake sweets. She was all the time baking something new or different for us to try. She baked a variety of cookies, cakes, pies and other such delights. All of those baked treats tasted really good …
Taco Bell Cheesy Nachos
I saw an item on the menu at taco bell. The item was called the Cheesy nachos. I figured with the word cheesy, they have to be at least somewhat good. I was wrong completely. When I got the nachos, it wasn’t even nachos. It was some tortilla chips …
MaraNatha Almond Butter
I love Almond Butter. It is a special treat that hits the spot and kills sugar cravings for me. There is one problem and that is the price. I generally see prices range from $5.99 to $13.99 for a 12oz (340g) container. I purchased MaraNatha Almond butter partly …
Iced Mocha BK Joe
Do you love iced coffee and chocolate? Then you;ll love the new Iced Mocha BK Joe from Burger King. It is one of the tastiest iced mochas I’ve ever tried. It has a bit of a feel of a java chip iced coffee, but with the added …
SIlk Soymilk
Recently I’ve begun a new healthy living diet in my home. My kids tend to turn up their nose at most of the ideas i’ve come up with but i put my foot down and told em to get over it. Sounds tough right?
Really they wanted to get healthier …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard is a flavor that I did not enjoy. I was expecting a different flavor from this pudding than I received. I expected this pudding to be sort of along the lines of eggnog, but what I got was a flavor that, well, lacked …
Kroger Natural Creamy Peanut Butter
Due to health reasons, I only buy peanut butter that is “natural”, meaning the only ingredients are roasted peanuts and either salt or salt and sugar (and possibly a little extra oil), so that I can avoid the trans fats in hydrogenated oils that are often included in other …
Harvest Snacks Chill’n Ranch Tortilla Chips
These tortilla chips proved to be a disappointment because they are supposed to be ranch flavored, but I tasted very little ranch on the tortilla chips. I could have almost mistaken the tortilla chips for being plain had the bag not had the word “ranch” on the front. I …
Green Tea Fat Burner
I have always been a tea drinker so with that being said I try new teas all the time. I don’t have an issue with that. The thing that I do have an issue with is trying things that I know are not going to work. I mean the …

Great Value Homestyle Pimento Spread
I bought Great Value Homestyle Pimento Spread hoping to find a cheaper replacement for Pimento cheese - you know, in those very small glass jars that are rather expensive. I saw the Great Value version of it that cost only $ 1.97 for a 14 oz plastic container. There …
Breyers Brownie Mud Pie Overload!

Campbell’s Chunky Grilled Chicken and Sausage Gumbo Soup
So, put yourself in my shoes for a second. It’s a workday lunchtime, with me so far? (Don’t nod off!) You’ve done almost all the usual fast food drive-thru alternatives, had exotic yummies like Miso, but what do you do when even Miso is starting to become old hat. …
Kellogg’s Fruit Snacks- Mixed Berry
They’re three types of Kellogg fruit snacks that I have seen, none of them taste bad what so ever, but mixed-berry is my least favorite out of the three by far. The other two flavors are great. This has never been one of my favorite kinds.
This is the only …

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 …
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, Butter Substitute
I love butter on everything I eat. I bake with butter and use it to top every type of bread. I like to use butter to saute and even fry on occasion. Although I love butter and think it absolutely makes every meal delicious, I was trying to cut …
Cowboy Billy’s Homestyle Baked Beans
We ended up making hotdogs for dinner last night and, to go with them, we made a can of Cowboy Billy’s Homestyle Baked Beans.
I have had this brand in the past but this is the first time I have tried this particular variety. It was OK, but it wasn’t …
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 …
Kellogg’s Nutrigrain Bar (Strawberry)
These bars are great, inexpensive snacks. They usually come in boxes of 8, and they are simple fruit filled bars of a cereal. I like strawberry best, but there are other flavours such as Mixed Berry and Apple.
These snacks are not very filling. They are a little bit sweet, …

Kraft Kool Aide Instant Drink Mix( strawberry flavor)
I am a type of person that got thirsty very often. I don’t like water that much, the fact that it has no taste. I rather drink juice or iced tea, but iced tea makes me thirstier. So I prefer to drink juices, actually I love juices, my favorite …
Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies
I do not find Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies to be all that good at all. While there is most definitely a chocolate flavor baked into the brownies, there is not nearly enough to create a truly delicious brownie treat. These brownies could also be a little more moist than …
Nescafe 3 in 1 Coffee

Francisco Breads are another tasty option for great breads. It’s a product my family has enjoyed for a number of years. Like one of its biggest competitors, Colombo, it’s never let us down. It’s been fresh, delicious, and great tasting every single time.
