My family eats a lot of hamburger when finances are tight. I would not consider hamburger helper to be a gourmet meal but it is affordable. It costs around $2 for the box plus whatever you paid for the hamburger. For me this meal including meat …

Ajinomoto seasoning should not have been invented in the first place! This product is purely monosodium glutamate (MSG) which is proven to do more harm than good to your body. I will never feed my family food that I cook that contains MSG. People from the health department should …

My daughter has been wanting to try new things, including lunch meat. So, we ended up running to the store the other day to buy some for her.
Our delis in this area are a bit too expensive so we ended up in the meat section and bought Hillshire Farm …

Quick and easy are words that I would use to describe El Charrito Beef and Cheese Mini Tacos. All I need to do is take however many I want out of the package, place them on an oven pan and let them bake for around ten minutes. As a …

This Finest Oat Pecan & Maple Crisp breakfast cereal from Harvest Delight is the kind of cereal that does not last long in my house as it is so nice I eat it as a snack. I cannot bear the kind of muesli with that nasty glazed fruit …

Since beginning my smoking habit three years ago, Dorals have been my brand of choice. It began originally because my roommate smoked them and I wanted to be able to bum from her without sacrificing my preference. They were also the least-trashy brand of the trashy brands, and were …

I was going to write a great review for this Muller Light yoghurt until I realized it is not actually suitable for vegetarians so that will teach me not to check the ingredients. Muller Light generally contains gelatine and this raspberry and cranberry one I am reviewing contains …

This is my all time favorite frozen pizza. When you eat it, it doesn’t even taste like a frozen pizza. I think it’s the best frozen pizza there is. They come in a different variety. I know they have supreme, and just pepperoni. I also know that they come …

When watching Dr. Drew on television last night, I learned that dark chocolate is far better for the body than regular chocolate. It is also far less addictive because although it has the addictive caffine, which is the most commonly abused drug in the United States of America, …

I find that I am trying more and more President’s Choice products in the last few years. I happened across this ready-to-serve soup and decided that it might be worth trying. This soup is almost a meal in itself; it has a very full-bodied flavor and is …

You will find these flavours at your local supermarket such as Woolworths, Bilo, Coles etc near the coffee., tea sections. They sell them …

I love chocolate so much that I guess one could say that I border on being a “chocoholic”. The funny thing is though that while I can get completely addicted to certain types and brands of chocolate, one would almost never catch me fooling around others. This is because …

I love Minute Maid Fruit Punch and it’s certainly my most favorite brand of fruit punch juice. Minute Maid Fruit Punch is available in my different containers and sizes. I love the fact that I am able to enjoy a small bottle Minute Maid Fruit Punch …

Hostess Ding Dongs are a whole lot like Hostess Cupcakes. They have a somewhat harder chocolate frosting exterior, a soft chocolate cake interior and have white creme in the middle. There is more creme in Ding Dongs than the cupcakes though, and the Ding Dong itself is a little …

This sauce is a mild sweet sauce with a hint of citrus at the end. It is not super thick, therefore it will not turn into a glob on your meat. It is also not thin enough to run off and burn up. I it adds a very nice …

I can’t find Racine Raspberry Danish Kringles at any of our local stores and, as a result, the first time I actually had an opportunity to try this particular product was when I ordered it through our daughter’s school fundraiser last spring. Well, actually, to be more accurate, we …

These White Tea and White Malt are the new variants of Bear Brand milk product. Both of these new products have a very unique packaging, that I couldn’t take my eyes off them the first time I saw them.
Although the price of these new products are a bit higher …

Nescafe currently had a campaign to encourage people to drink coffee at night even before you head to bed for a good night slumber. The challenge though is to erase the preconceived notion that coffee, being rich in caffeine will keep you awake. Thus they manufactured a different mix, this …

The Cloverhill Bakery - Blueberry Cheese danish is one that I really do not care for very much. Part of the reason that I was disappointed in this danish is because I did not find the blueberry flavor to be particularly rich or impressive. While I could most certainly …

I am very cheap about a lot of things; however, there is one thing that I refuse to be cheap about and that is my coffee. Maxwell House Original Roast Ground Coffee is truly the best tasting coffee I have ever tasted, and I find that the product …

My daughter loves M&M Mini’s while I prefer mine with …

Atkinson’s Long Boys were a new type of candy for me, though not for the rest of the world. These candies have been around for at least 60 years, but I had never heard of them before. I’m the type of person who loves to try new things no …

For as long I can remember, I’ve always been a fan of the Rice-A-Roni products. The rice is easy to prepare and comes in an array of flavors. I wanted to prepare a meal with pork-chops, and I thought it would be the perfect time to try out the …

I will be quite honest here and admit that I eat a good deal more Cadbury’s Fingers than I really should, because they are just so tasty! That comment could apply to a lot of chocolate products, in particular those from Cadbury, but these more than most. I discovered …

Frozen pizza keeps on evolving and one of the brands that continues to push the envelop is Red Baron. Not long ago, they came out with their Fire Baked Pizza, which was just yummy. Now there’s something else new on the market — Red Baron By the …

Hot chocolate is one of the few things that makes the harsh, bitter cold of winter almost bearable. Snuggling up on the couch with a great big mug of hot chocolate is enough to put a smile on anyone’s face.
Carnation instant hot chocolate is my personal hot chocolate …

I’m a big “value” shopper and I have yet to find a better deal on frozen pizzas than the ones most stores offer on the brand Jacks. Typically, I can buy Jacks Pizzas for as little as $2 each and fill my freezer with them for use during lunches …

I was so lucky when I won a promo during our neighboring supermarket’s anniversary. Although YBF products are quite unfamiliar to me, I gave it a try that it might have some nice results.
I was really hesitant to apply it at first knowing that I have no experiences with …

My favorite raisins to snack on are the Nature’s Place Organic California Raisins. I think these raisins because there are not preservatives or chemicals in them at all and they contain dense potent nutrients in them such as iron, calcium, protein, fiber, potassium, and natural sugars. I also like …

For me, the easiest way to tell whether or not I really like a snack food is if I find myself easily going over the recommended serving portion listed on the packaging. With Twistos Baked Snack Bites, it’s hard to stop snacking on them once I start! From the …

If you have read my previous review of the Great American Cookies’ products, then you will see how it doubles in this review. When I was in the mall where the Great American Cookies are sold, I would always see this sandwich cookie but for whatever reason I always …

Vegan ice-cream is not something you can surprise people with anymore. America is the queen of vegan ice-cream and part of the reason why I’m looking forward to going back there this summer is actually the dairy-free ice-cream. In Europe, however, there aren’t that many brands that make the cruelty-free …

I tried to like Tofurky, but just could not do it. This product is revolutionary and really is a healthy option as well as being a vegetarian’s dream, but in my opinion, it stinks! We made tofurky and the entire family sat down to eat it and all I …
