I’m not the healthiest food eater in the world. In fact, I’m far from it. I’m a persnickety eater, especially with foods that say they are healthy. I need that old school taste that I grew up with. I have, however, found a couple of …

Recently, I got brave and tried out a new product: Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle flavor. They actually have four new sandwich spreads, the others being hot and spicy, horseradish - Dijon, and garlic & herb. I ended up with two flavors, so in the future …

I had seen this online food bakery at a blog and was curious to try it out, since the baker’s menu had unique flavours such as Spicy Surprise, which consisted of spicy chocolate cookies with peppers, and red velvet cookies, which seemed so delicious judging by the photos!
I had …

I purchased this spaghetti sauce for just under ninety cents because I thought it sounded good and would add a tasty garlic and assorted herb flavor to my pasta dishes. I have pasta usually twice a week, and although I definitely enjoy it, I like to try and add …

This is a garlic spread that is made in-store at Kroger grocery stores, so it’s not sold at any other store. A twelve-ounce tub of this garlic spread runs for around two dollars and fifty-cents, which is a fair price I feel considering the quality of the spread and …

I wasn’t too pleased with this blueberry syrup. The main reason that I wasn’t very satisfied with this syrup is because it wasn’t as thick as the syrup I’m used to using, and that syrup is made and sold by Log Cabin. This syrup from Smucker’s was more watery …

If you are a fan of Starbucks just like I am, than I am sure you have heard of Starbucks treat receipts, a promotion that they typically run through part of the summer. What it is is you purchase a beverage before 2:00p.m. you can bring back your receipt …

One of the appetizers offered for $5 at Pizza Hut are pepperoni pizza rolls. These simple little pieces of finger food are pizza dough stuffed with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices, served with marinara sauce on the side. They are lightly dusted with seasoning and come in …

In many kitchens, Bisquick is a staple. This simple flour-based mix can be used for pancakes, waffles, shortcakes, and even biscuits, with just a few additional ingredients. It comes in large, economical boxes that last the two of us for months on end. Most of the …

Crystal Light is a popular way to get a flavored drink without too many calories or too much sugar as a consequence. On average, a serving of a drink made with Crystal Light has about five calories, compared to the 100-200 that can be in the standard fruit …

I am a chocolate afficionada. In fact, I find chocolate to be one of the life’s necessities, a source of important minerals as well as a small joy of every day. Since my resources are, however, highly limited, I have to be picky with my chocolate purchases. A particular …

Every once in a while McDonald’s introduces new products to its line-up, and ever rarer, I find something of their menu attractive enough to try it out. McWraps, available in three different flavours, have been the advertised merchandise for a while now, and after some consideration, I finally ordered …

Oshee’s new isotonic beverages with vitamins and minerals have been made available in local stores where I live just lately, and I was reluctant to try them out, because I’m never particularly into energy drinks, which is what I associate Oshee with. However, the name “H2O” gave me the …

Tyson has some of the best chicken breasts on the market. They are always cut in to even pieces and each one is a fair portion. They even seem a little large to some but their chicken is low calorie and full of good vitamins. What makes them great …

Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums are basically kids’ sweets, but that doesn’t stop me from eating them sometimes! That goes double as they are really very inexpensive - a 75 gram pack costs just 39 pence, and the supermarket usually offers a “buy three for a pound” deal …

Droste Milk and Dark Pastilles (although the name is actually rendered as “Milk / Dark” on the pack) are a chocolate treat that I do not very often manage to enjoy, not because I don’t like the things - I do, a great deal - but because they are …

This is what is colloquially known by just about everybody, certainly by me, as “Alphabetti Spaghetti” on account of the nice sound that makes. However, since it is not strictly speaking spaghetti (by virtue of being the wrong shape!) Heinz are forced to use this rather duller title on …

I generally eat cereal at breakfast time, rather than go to the time and trouble of preparing anything more complex such as a cooked meal, but all I really ask of that cereal is that it be reasonably well made and tasty. Sainsbury’s Cornflakes are not quite as nice …

I recently bought a big 8 OZ bag of Cheetos Crunchy Cheddar and Jalapeno flavored Cheese snack in the supermarket for about $3 (Php 150). I have been craving Cheetos to snack on while watching TV or as a midnight snack. For $3 (about Php150), this is really a …

I bought this huge chunk bar of a chocolate at Fresh and Easy and for only $4.99 at a heavy hunky 500 grams (that’s half a pound already!) I can share it with my family and with leftovers still.
This huge chocolate bar had pecan and fruit pieces in …

I am fond of eating milk chocolate with nuts and dark chocolate bars with nuts, so when I saw this dark chocolate bar at Duty Free and I noticed I still haven’t tasted this particular brand since it was new to me, I decided to buy it at $5.80 …

Preparing food is not an easy job because it needs time and skill, for people on the go like me, I’m too busy to prepare foods so I try different instant foods that will satisfy me. I already tried cereals, oatmeal, bread and spread and instant noodles, and as …

My current job requires me to be always on the go. The job is so hectic that I often find myself not having a decent meal, or not having a meal at all. I do not have the luxury of time to go the the nearest restaurant, wait …

Everybody loves ice cream, and almost everybody I know loves frozen yogurt. It’s healthy, tasty, and practically affordable. I have tasted lots of yogurt and was therefore very excited to taste Golden Spoon’s frozen yogurt selection.
What caught my eye was that I was strolling around the mall one day …

A few months ago, my husband picked these Trader Joes Ice Cream Bonbons up for me because he knew I liked ice cream and chocolate. I thought it was a sweet idea, but didn’t think too much of it and just put them in the freezer for later.
Now …

I heard about the company Peanut butter & Company a long time ago but didn’t get around to trying out any of their peanut butters until now. I always wanted to try the White Chocolate Wonderful flavor because as a vegan I love white chocolate and white chocolate …

I don’t eat or drink anything that comes from an animal, so rice milk is one of the options I use when I substitute milk. Rice Dream Rice Milk has always been my favorite brand of rice milk. I love the name (and the company name, Imagine Foods) for …

Honestly, you really don’t need the hamburger helper to make this kind of food. All you really need is to buy some macaroni from the store and the beef. The only thing missing is the seasoning, so that’s how they get you to buy the hamburger helpful. But this …

This is the best peanut butter I have ever tasted. Many people say that you can’t tell the difference between different kinds of peanut butter but that is not true. Different companies use specific ingredients to make their product taste unique. That is what the Peter Pan brand does. …

This is another new chocolate product from the Werther’s Original brand and they are milk chocolates with a soft caramel centre. These are very gorgeous although they are very sweet and might be too much for you if you do not have such a sweet tooth. That …

This Peri Peri Rice is the second in the Veetee Dine In rice range I have tried and this is as gorgeous as the mushroom one. These promise ‘restaurant quality’ rice which it truly is and with no effort whatsoever. As I have not mastered how to …

In a world where everything is constantly changing, right now we have instant for everything–instant coffee, instant noodles and this time instant snacks. I was looking for something that I can immediately eat which also has higher carbohydrates. When you are in a high-rise building working for long hours, …

I have found a great mix online at amzazon. This mix is made by a little midwest company: heartland food products. This mix which I found after enjoying it at a fine hotel, is all in one. You only have to add water and I have to tell you …

I tasted the Arce Dairy Strawberry Ice Cream, when I my boyfriend and I had a buffet dinner in one of the hotels in the city, Dusit Thani Manila, they were serving this as part of their dessert table, and it looked so good, so I decided to get …

I purchased this syrup at the store on a whim. It is a small bottle and they were able to fit it into a little display next to the ice cream freezer. I had not seen any advertisement for it nor had I heard much about it before …

Arizona is a company that mostly produces commercial drinks such as canned and bottled juices, ice teas and other cold beverages. For this review I will be focusing on one of the flavors that Arizona provides called ‘Sweet Tea’. This is a large can of ice tea that is …

I’m a busy man and because of this hectic schedule in work and different things concerning work I do not have time to cook for myself during dinner. This situation leads me to the point where I need to buy canned foods and eat that for my dinner together …

I really like peanuts as a savoury snack, and have done for a number of years now. They’re less messy than eating a pastry product such as a sausage roll, they don’t melt as many sweet snacks (such as chocolate bars) do and they’re very convenient to carry around. …

Being a picky eater, I have a tough time finding foods that I like to eat. For breakfast, I usually eat the traditional toast with butter but after awhile, I have to branch out and find something new to satisfy my taste. My latest discovery are Don …

Serving Size: 2oz. (56g/about 2 slices)
Servings per container: about 3
This is one of the new products out in the market today, Ligo Beef Loaf. It costs only …

Another kitchen wonder you will often see in most kitchens today is cornstarch. It is mainly used to thicken sauces and gravies. I have tried this Cream Pure Cornstarch once and from then on, continued buying the product. It is in a box (200grams) which costs …

Being a true-blue chocolate lover, I was excited to try this new flavor from Selecta’s ice cream selection. I bought the 800ml pint of Choco Almond Fudge for only approximately $2.80, and with that price it’s really not that expensive for something that 2 persons can share to, maybe …

My first experience with Finlandia vodka took place during a wild party in my usually rather not-crazy student years. As far as alcohol goes, I’m fairly non-adventurous, but that time, I took a risk and I enjoyed myself immensely. Since then, I’ve sampled most of the vodka flavours Finlandia …

This is one of Selecta’s newest flavors added to their selection, the Coffee Almond Cookie is yet the best flavour I have tasted so far. Being a local brand and still managing to uphold their status and reputation by creating new delicious flavours make them a competitive and top …

I used to love the taste of Marie Callender’s Pecan Pie when I was still a kid, looking through their large clear glass window and picking out a whole pecan pie to take home for dessert.
But recently when I bought a whole pie and ate it at home, …

Sometimes I want chicken, but don’t want the hassle of cooking it. Cooking chicken can be a pain. It takes a long time and often more effort than I’d like to expend. If I want to make chicken cutlets, I have to cut them, mix the …

Although I’m not as crazy about peanut butter as I’m about caramel, I still like peanut butter and so, it was no surprise that this Twix bar appealed to me. I always felt that the Twix candy bar could use more caramel in between the cookie portion and the …

My biggest problem with this thirty count variety pack packaged and released by M & M Mars is that it’s very uneven in the different number of chocolate candy bars. By that, I mean, while there’s thirty Snickers bars, there’s only three 3 Musketeers. There’s eight Twix bars but …

Three different kinds of popsicles come in this package: strawberry, cotton candy and lemonade-flavored popsicles. The one flavor that interested me the most was the lemonade-flavored popsicle because ice cold lemonade is truly a refreshing thing to have when the world is roasting outside. I figured that a lemonade-flavored …

This boxed brownie mix has chocolate chips in the mix. The chocolate chips that end up being baked right into the brownies provide “pockets” of richer, stronger chocolate flavor amidst the more subdued but nonetheless good brownie cake, hence the “double chocolate” name on the box. Although I wouldn’t …
