Fit & Active Fat Free Whipped Topping comes in an eight ounce container for seventy-nine cents. Although I was hesitant to give this Fit & Active product a try considering how it was a fat free product and fat free products typically lack sufficient flavor to make eating the …

Eclipse Peppermint Gum is just okay, nothing fancy about it and nothing worth bragging about to you guys. I am a big gum chewer, and I enjoy many of the sugarless brands, but not this one. I mean, if there is nothing available, I will chew it, …

Few days before New Years Eve of 2008, my younger sister wants to have something alcoholic drink for the event. Being an occasional drinker I’m not familiar with alcoholic drinks so I let her choose and she bought Vodka Mudshake Pina Colada. My sister says it is perfect for …

I typically like microwave/oven made meals so I decided to try Marie Callender’s Fettuccini Alfredo with Garlic Bread. I was really not pleased with this product.
I removed the plastic cover expecting to taste delicious noodles, tender veggies and flavorful garlic bread. The vegetables were sparse in quantity and lacked …

My husband and I went to Robinsons to look for toys for our little girl. Near the toys section, there is a chocolates counter. You can get about 4 bars of chocolates for $11. And being the generous husband that I have, he will ask me to select some …

I am a big ice cream lover and one of my absolute favourite flavours of ice cream is Peanut. Our local ice cream company is named Flavarite and they create a wonderfully delicious peanut flavoured ice cream.
Flavarite’s Peanut Ice Cream has a light brown colour and the ice cream …

Beware! The Girl Scout cookies that were on order recently have arrived. My husband came home from church yesterday (I was sick and couldn’t go) and underneath each arm was a box of Girl Scout cookies. One of my students is in the second grade and …

Nescafe Gold Blend is an instant coffee that I have been buying for years as it is a reliable, quality coffee. It is marketed as a premium instant coffee and you may remember the sexy Gold Blend ad campaign of the 90s aimed at a social-climbing, middle-class audience. …

Wafer lovers should try Nissin Chocolate Wafer. It’s a local brand here in the Philippines but for me it’s one of the best. The reason I like it is because the taste is just right. It’s sweet but not too sweet. It’s in small packages so it remains crispy …

And the green tea marketshare war lives on with the launch of Coca-Cola’s Real Leaf Green Tea.
A few years back, sodas ruled the Philippine beverage market. Beverage war was limited to Coke vs Pepsi. Enter John Gokongwei’s C2 Green Tea and the rest was history. Green tea drinks …

Biscuits go great with so many meals regardless of the time of the day. What’s not so great is having to crack open a roll and bake all the biscuits even though you may only want a couple, and thus the rest has to go in the refrigerator after …

Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …

Bendicks Bittermints are very high quality and I think these are a real luxury. These are a firm, mint fondant which have a blast of mintiness to them that reminds me of Trebor Extra Strong Mints when it comes to the flavour, but the mintiness is less harsh. …

Oddly, as a child I really didn’t like Lays Barbecue Flavor Potato Chips. It wasn’t the Lays brand, but the barbecue taste didn’t appeal to me. We had it alot because my sister preferred it over the classic chips. However, as did some other foods, the …

First things first I am a meat eater. I love beef cooked in as many ways as I can possibly get it. I eat meat everyday and have never even thought about eating a soy product. That was until a free coupon for Boca Meatless Breakfast Wraps showed up …

This candy tastes great, I adore chocolate with nuts but this one really is something special. When I got Witor’s Chocolate candy party collection from a friend I thought it was just one of those many very cheap, very sweet, not very good collections of chocolate candy but when …

My all time favorite creamy yogurt to eat for a healthy snack or breakfast is the Yoplait Creamy Harvest Peach Yogurt. It is almost fat free and has a real yummy creamy peach flavor to it that taste like you are eating a delicious dessert. I not only love …

Cereals are always a good option in the mornings, as they’re good for the body and have a lot of fiber.
When I bought Kellog’s Special K yogurt cereals, they came in a 300 grams box.
These cereals are low in calories. When I hear that, I think immediately that the …

I recently tasted Palastri sangiovese di Romagna wine. It’s a red, medium bodied wine from Italy. I bought it because it was half price rather than because it had been recommended. I enjoyed it. It would go well with an evening meal but I enjoyed a glass …

I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. From the outside it looks smart, clean and tasteful, with its wooden floors and attractive oriental designs. It has a very clean-cut and modern feel to it, and it has a sense of minimalism, which immediately makes …

Hair of the Dog is an energy drink which is sold claiming that it will actually help detoxify your body. All drinks which have water in them can do this. However, this drink sells them off as some sort of attempt to claim that it will actually decrease your …

I tried the KFC Ultimate Burger when i was at the KFC near our office. It was around noon when i decided to just go for the fastfood since others have more people than this branch and i was in a hurry. They have this new sandwich posted and …

Colombo breads have been a family favorite for years. Their breads are always top quality and great tasting.
My family started buying the extra sour flavor when making garlic cheese bread decades ago. It’s just extra good with extra sour. Then we started using it for sandwiches. …

I have been trying to cut down on my spending lately and have been sampling the delights the Tesco Value range has to offer. At the ridiculously low prices they are selling for, you should not expect anything to be of the highest quality, but some products in …

I tried the ‘Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt’ from Tesco’s Value range for the first time. I am open-minded about their ‘Value’ range as some products are not so bad. I would not expect this to be on a par to more expensive yoghurts as it is a …

Betty Crocker - Bisquick Pancake Mix is not a product that I will purchase again. I do not care for pancake mixes that require water to be added as opposed to milk. Milk makes pancakes much better and the only reason I purchased this mix was because the grocery …

Every Saturday night for years and years, my family enjoyed spaghetti. As a rule, we made a simple version with a basic tomato sauce to which we added spaghetti sauce seasoning, or maybe some other spices of choice. Our preferred product was actually Del Monte Tomato Sauce. …

My mother lives with us and I do the grocery shopping. She has me buy prunes and I will admit I have started eating them too. My husband laughs at me, and thinks prunes are gross. To me, they taste like sweet candy. Mom is very picky about brands, …

For supper tonight I decided to try the new KFC Double Down Sandwich. It was surprisingly pretty good! I’m not a big bread eater , so I didn’t miss that part of it at all.
The double down is a very unique sandwich. It is 2 crispy boneless chicken filets …

Eurocream was the only chocolate cream which you could by when I was little. I adored it but as nobody in my family liked it they weren’t buying it quite often. Then it was impossible to find Eurocream in our shops for years and a few days ago I …

I remember several years ago when Barni cakes came in our stores that a commercial was on TV every few seconds. Now I do not see their commercials anymore. I must say that it never even crossed my mind to buy these cakes until a few days ago there were …

I have been drinking Cottee’s flavoured cordial since I was a young child. Even now as an adult, I find that I still drink it on a daily basis. I don’t really like plain water on it’s own, so I find that Cottee’s cordial is the perfect …

Panera Bread is a top-quality restaurant. They have delicious high-quality food. I have tried all their scones, but my very favorite is the strawberry scones. They come in a normal scone size and in a mini size. The mini scones come in a tub with …

I often make maggie noodles at home. It just takes few minutes to prepare the dish. They also provide tastemaker along with the noodles. This is very handy for all moms and most of the children would love to eat maggie noodles. All we need to do is boil …

I frequent the Great Mall due to the size and options available in their many stores. My kids, Jonny and Sue, often accompany me and can be found playing around the kiddy fountain near Entrance One. One day, I stopped at Sportsters to buy my husband a …

It is a real shame. These Blue Bunny Doubles Ice Cream Bar Smores could have been a pretty tasty treat, but unfortunately, the ball was dropped by Blue Bunny here. The main complaint that I have is the marshmallow flavor is really not that strong. It is actually on …

My mother loves coffee - maybe not quite as much as a coffee house devotee, but she MUST have a cup when she gets up, when she goes out for dinner and, strangely, every time she’s been in the ER.
After a while, the coffee she was making just didn’t …

I am not a sweet tooth kind of girl, but I do get a craving for chocolates from time to time. One of my personal favorites is Junior Mints. I have loved Junior Mints since my childhood when my mother would get them for me every Christmas and we …

The Breakfast Best Pancakes & Sausage on a Stick package contains ten pancake and sausage sticks for four dollars and thirty cents at ALDI Food Market stores. The pancake and sausage sticks look a lot like corn dogs and are eaten like corn dogs. In the middle and partially …

Blue Bell ice cream is a brand that they sell in the south of the United States. I never knew about Blue Bell when I lived in New York and I had no way of tasting it so I thought that we had the best ice cream in NY. …

Metromint - Peppermint Water is more or less about as good as hint peppermint water, and if I had to choose the better tasting flavored water, I do not think that I could. Much like the hint flavored water line, this water is also pretty pure and healthy. The …

My height was quite normal at the age of 12, but I wanted to be tall than anyone else in the class. The Complan ads got my attention and I asked my mother to get me one. She first told me that there is nothing wrong with your height, …

Alcohol is something I’ve never written a review for and it’s not that I don’t drink, it’s just that I didn’t want to write about things like wine and beer, since it’s really hard to explain the flavor of those (at least for me) and will unlikely give people …

I don’t usually buy wantons because I make my own at home which come out quite nicely if I do say myself. One day I decided to try Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons from their extensive menu of differently filled wantons, because I was not going to be home for …

This is an off-brand of Texas Toast that I’ve only found at ALDI. There is nothing that sets this Texas Toast apart from the national brand Texas Toast except for the price. It sells for just a dollar sixty-four for eight slices in a box. I haven’t found Texas …

I have been wanting to cook my own restaurant style Buffalo wings, but I haven’t found the right combination of recipes to achieve it. I am a big fan of Buffalo wings and would really love it if I could do it in such a way that it would …

Mrs. Baird’s: Powdered Sugar Donuts Grab N’ Go are mini donuts. In two bites, a mini donut is gone, thus making these small donuts convenient for munching when in an hurry. Of course, considered the mess that powdered sugar makes, I would not recommend eating these if you are …

Since I’ve had some good luck with other new Oscar Mayer products, when I saw their new Deli Fresh, I decided to give it a try, too. I’m a turkey lover, so selected the oven roasted turkey breast (shaved).
It comes in a rectangular plastic container that is touted …
