I have tried many kinds of French fries from fast food joints, and I don’t think any can really compare to Checkers Bacon Cheddar Ranch French Fries. They are so tasty and cooked fresh right when ordered so that I can enjoy freshly cooked fries fully loaded with a …

This is the only on the go drink mix that I have ever tried. It’s one of the things you put in bottled watter to make it flavored. Well I would rather just buy the flavored water already made. To me this didn’t have enough flavor in it. It …

EAS Protein Powder, is a protein powder that can be bought at Costco. I started buying it because the price for the amount of servings it contains, was a pretty good deal. I have not tried the chocolate, only the vanilla. I originally bought it just …

I love tacos, but I’ve never really made them at home. It’s just too messy of a process. However, I was recently given a packet of Old Del Paso Taco Seasoning Mix and just had to take advantage of it.
Basically, you brown your hamburger, then stir in …

I am writing this review as I munch away on the finished results of this product. Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix is absolutely fantastic, and oh so easy to prepare. For US $1.50 you can make 3 dozen peanut butter cookies. You can’t make home made cookies for …

I have bought many Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper products over the years, but the worse one I ever encountered was the Stroganoff. In a hurry to make a quick dinner a few nights ago, I picked up this Stroganoff mixture at my local supermarket for just $1.99CDN.
The mixture on …

I like to try different foods and cheese is included in this. Some I have liked lots and some I just didn’t want to go near it after my taste buds got a “whiff” of it. Well, I am here to talk about Emborg’s Havarti Cheese. One of the …

I was never a fan of premixed coffee that usually comes in 3 in 1 forms. It is a combination of non-dairy creamer, sugar and instant coffee powder. They are either too sweet or too watery for my taste. I want to taste the coffee not …

In my search for a pie or a pastry slice that tastes good has actual meat and not slop inside it and a light pastry that doesn’t feel like a lead weight in your stomach after you have eaten it, I have tried hundreds of pies and pastries and …

Betty Crocker has a bunch of different frostings. As the years have passed, they’ve added not only new flavors, but some ‘x’ factor that gives some flavors a different edge. For me, though, I’m very partial to their Rich & Creamy line which delivers a taste better …

Without fail, I begin each day with a hot cup of coffee. Over the years I’ve tried countless varieties and Folger’s Vanilla Biscotti is one of the best.
So many pre-ground coffees tend to dry out while they are on shelves in the grocery store or in …

I’m not much of a cook. As a matter of fact I don’t even know how to cook rice or how to fry. I often stay away from the kitchen. It’s quite ironic because I love watching cooking shows especially those in Discovery Travel and Living. But there are …

I like eclairs, and one of my recent discoveries in that department is Poppies Belgian Mini Eclairs. A plastic box containing about 30 small, half-a-finger size eclairs costs $3.98. The eclairs are sold frozen, and they must be kept that way. When you want to use them, you just …

I bought this Brioche Loaf without really knowing what Brioche bread was and when I got home and attempted to make cheese sandwiches out of it I really thought I had got it wrong! I did not think it went with the cheese at all and that the …

Turkey Hill brand ice cream is one of the priciest ice cream brands that I’ve come across, right up there with the Blue Bell brand ice cream. Typically, a one point five quart will cost over five dollars, so for that reason, I tend to not purchase it unless …

Yesterday my brother and i watched a movie and there was this big advertisement of the new Burger offering by Burger King. Being the curious being that we are, we did go to a BK store and got each one for us, it promised of a pure angus beef, …

My family has been getting Trader Joe’s Honey Nut O’s for about 3 years now. The price is around 2 dollars a box, for a normal cereal box size. I usually get three boxes at a time because they finish so fast. Three boxes last us about two weeks …

Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers are one of those things that I saw and couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen potato chips with a similar flavor, but never crackers. They don’t look all that bad and they actually appear kind of cute, until you read the ingredients and the fine print. …

Stouffer’s Smoked Turkey Club Panini is not quite as good as some of Stouffer’s other frozen sandwiches, but I nonetheless still enjoyed the sandwich and will likely purchase it again now and then. The smoked turkey slices have a good flavor to them, and I am not even that …

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 …

Because of my previous experience with the Lean Pocket Philly cheese steak, I wanted to expand my lunch menu to another pastry sandwich: The Lean Pocket ham and cheese. I’ve had the Hot pocket ham and cheese and they are the best, so I thought the Lean Pocket ham …

My mom brought these home as an experiment to see if they would make good appetizers. I only got around to trying them yesterday. I admit, I didn’t look at the package real closely. I assumed these were mini cheeseburgers, aka sliders.
I followed the microwave directions to a tee, …

What first caught my attention to try Luna Bars was the packaging, a cute little blue box with a dusky moon and starry sky. Luna Bars are formulated for women in general but men can eat them too. They have added folic acid calcium, and iron plus antioxidants and …

Rice seems to be such a simple thing to cook but I have not yet mastered the art of getting it right ie. nice and fluffy and separated. But I love rice and this packet of Veetee Dine In Basmati Rice and Mushroom looked so tempting on the …

You know how sometimes with potato chips when you eat the first one, you think, hmmm, this tastes weird. And then you eat a few more just because, hey, the bag is open?
That’s how I felt about these potato chips. Only after I had eaten the 5th or 6th …

As I’ve indicated in other reviews, Del Monte is a trusted brand in my family. My parents purchased it, and I’ve continued to patronize it as well. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever gotten a bad product from them, so I have a lot of faith in …

Generations of our family have been buying and consuming Diamond of California Shelled Walnuts. To this day, my immediate family and I, despite living in separate households, regularly eat Diamond of California Shelled Walnuts.

I do not normally go for instant foods because it is not healthy. It is good to have them though because when you are caught in the middle of a very hectic schedule, you can have this as your quick remedy for hunger. But this is not a great alternative …

I am reviewing the popular soda, Coca Cola.
If you are not a large fan of soda, you probably wouldn’t like Coke, as it does have a pretty strong taste. Personally, I like it. It has a kind of fizzy characteristic to it, and I always drink Coke when I …

You should be aware of those cookies, because they are really addictive. I can finish the whole box in just one day. Self discipline is useless when it comes to those cookies. And the interesting thing about it, is that those cookies are taste and look much better than …

Mother’s Iced Lemonade Cookies are sold at gas stations and convenience stores across the United States. I think you can also get them from some stores, but I usually see them at the gas station in smaller bags perfect for snacking on. Each bag is white, with some bright …

Diet Pepsi is perhaps the worst diet soda on the market. It always tastes flat and looses any carbonation quickly. It tastes like rancid water, not a soft drink.
On the up side, Diet Pepsi has no calories, fat, etc. If you are on a diet or trying to watch …

I was thinking of what to bring for the following day on my son’s field trip, well actually I already have some food ideas in mind but very general. I just thought that I should bring food that is easy and quick to eat, not too messy, would spare …

Chocolate Nesquik is a power that is put into milk to turn it into chocolate milk (a VERY innoviative name). There are other flavours apart from chocolate (such as strawberry, banana, caramel and honey comb), but chocolate is my favourite.
One criticism is that chocolate nesquik is high in sugar, …

When this cereal first appeared, it’s major advertising gimmick was that you were essentially eating peanut butter cups for breakfast. There’s some truth to this. The cereal is made with two kinds of puffs, some are made with Reese’s peanut butter and the others are made with Hershey’s …

Kinder had always been my favourite chocolate I think that I actually really like the milk taste of it. That’s why I also adored Kinder eggs. My sister was crazy about the toys you would get in them while I was looking forward to the chocolate itself. You can …

My mum used to buy Twiglets for us kids all the time but it occurred to me recently that I had not had them for years. So I had them for the first time after a long hiatus and I still find them gorgeous. Twiglets are twig-shaped …

I have long been a fan of Dr. Oetker desserts, and when their pizza went on sale at my local grocery store I quickly bought Dr. Oetker Ristorante Pizza Funghi. To be honest, I had to laugh at the ‘Funghi’ part of the name as this is simply a …

Cedarlane Eggplant Mediterranean is not a meal that I have too often because I am not that crazy about eggplant, but, when I am in the mood for something different and out of the ordinary, then I will sometimes go with this meal. While I am not wild about …
