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 …

On this occasion, I’ll speak about the Sacialis chocolate bars from the Bicentury brand, a little treat for our taste we can give from time to time even if we are in a diet. I’ll talk a little about the three types of chocolate bars that exist, as I …

I gave quite a bad review of the Co-operative’s Fairtrade Instant Coffee, but this is the ‘Gold Roast’ which implies a better quality instant coffee. This is a freeze dried coffee ‘for a smooth, rich flavour’ so I was hopeful it was going to be better. This …

I use Great Value Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soup mostly for cooking, although it tastes good just as soup as well. Campbell’s is still my favorite though, there is a slight taste difference, and it is less lumpy. But when it comes to casseroles, chicken, and stroganoff, the Great …

Along with the Banana Creme and Strawberry varieties produced by Yoplait, the French Vanilla variety is among my favorites. Vanilla, in general, I love, especially in the form of ice cream, but it is very tasty in yogurt too, as this product proves. Every spoonful is rich in French …

When I purchased this, I remembered buying it before. But, I couldn’t remember much …

This is definitely a better pasta sauce then many I have tried. I especially like it better than the Ragu pasta sauce.

There is really nothing all that wonderful or impressive about Mrs. Freshley’s Glazed Cake Donuts, aside from the fact that the donut itself is actually a pretty good size. Everything else is really pretty much on the average side. The amount of glazed icing found on the donut is …

Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee offers a little taste of heaven. Considering the standard retail price of one sachet which is only PHP5, that is quite a feat! I’ve always patronized nescafe. However, before they introduced the 3 in 1 product, I could never get the flavor …

It has been my morning ritual to drink hot chocolate together with newly baked wheat bread. When I am traveling to western countries during winter season, a cup of warm chocolate is the best thermal blanket for me. This is one of the most important beverage I would have every …

Why they call this product “chocolate ice cream” and not just “chocolate” is a mystery to me. It’s a creamy chocolate drink, and more closely comparable to a chocolate milkshake than chocolate ice cream. At any rate, this is a creamy chocolate nutrition drink that isn’t quite as good …

If you have never been to Panera Bread, there is one item worth stopping for. Actually, there are several amazing treats and sandwiches available at Panera, and I have always been more than satisfied. The bagels are always fresh as is all of the bread and produce. …

Twelve Kellogg’s Original Cinnabon Pancakes come in a package for two dollars and fifty cents. That may sound like a fairly good deal, but the pancakes themselves actually aren’t that big.
