Hamburger Helper Crunchy Taco
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 …
Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Chili Oil
We were eating at a Chinese fast food when a chili sauce was served together with the siomai we ordered. My husband loves to eat spicy foods or dips that are very very spicy. I don’t even know how he swallows his food anymore. After eating, he went to …
Coca-Cola drink
Coke is one of my favorite drinks. It has a unique taste that’s good and satisfying. It’s one of the pioneer beverage companies that offers the most original taste. Coke is one of the drinks that people of all ages love. It’s even popular with little children. I like …
Gourmet Select Onion Rings
I didn’t like these onion rings too much because they weren’t real crispy. Onion rings need to have a crispy exterior otherwise they aren’t that good. The crispy exterior is just as enjoyable as the onion and batter flavors to me, so it’s just as important. These onions aren’t …
Shultz Honey Wheat Braided Pretzel Twists
I didn’t like the mixture of sweet and salty that permeated throughout these pretzel sticks. Although neither flavor was extremely strong, I still didn’t think that honey mixed well with salt. The amount of salt on these pretzels is relatively low although it’s still enough to be tasted. I’m …
H.K. Anderson Peanut Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets
This is an entirely different kind of pretzel! It’s a pretzel with peanut butter on the inside. I never gave much thought to how pretzels and peanut butter would taste together. I was familiar with pretzels and cheese, but pretzels and peanut butter? I had to give them a …
Shultz Mini Pretzels
These mini pretzels aren’t bad really, but I have on a couple of occasions found myself with a stale bag even though the expiration date hasn’t yet arrived or is anywhere near to arriving. In those instances though I just return the pretzels to the Dollar Tree and they …
Extra Joss Energy Drink
I am a full time student in the morning and full time blogger during at night so I really need to stay focus and alert during this time. But sometimes, I can’t help myself but to feel dizzy and that is not cool at all. Time is gold and …
Sprite Soda
During break time in school, me and my friends are always going on our school’s canteen to buy some snack for our merienda. We prefer buying some bread or crackers with matching a soda. Speaking of a soda, I am buying Sprite Soda. I still prefer drinking this drink …
Kikoman Tempura and Noodle Sauce
I actually love to cook and experiment on new foods. It excites me so much whenever I find a new ingredient I could use for my recipe. One day, while were eating out at a Japanese restaurant, the mixed tempura we ordered was really fine but what caught my …
Red Horse Beer by San Miguel
Brewed and bottled by San Miguel Brewery Corp., is actually a strong beer. But why do people consider it as a strong beer? As for my own opinion, they call it strong cause after drinking a couple of bottles or maybe three for the heavy drinkers, it’ll surely put …
Galaxy Caramel Milk Chocolate Bar
I was seduced into buying this big Galaxy Caramel bar today and it was as gorgeous as anticipated! It tempts us on the wrapper to ‘Slip into the smooth swirls of Galaxy Caramel’ and I thought that sounded yummy. This is a bumper size bar which should …
Laphroaig Malt Whisky
In Gaelic, the language of the people who once occupied the greater part of the kingdom, ‘whisky’ means ‘the water of life’ and the effect of a good whisky on a glum person can be quite interesting. There are some of us in Scotland who may be considered to …
I Can’t Believe its not Butter Spray
I’ve been using I Can’t Believe it’s not Butter flavored spray since 1996. It has helped me to lose weight and stay healthy. With negligible calories and fat, and multiple uses, it is one of my favorite cooking items. I use it to spray my pans to sautee meats and …
Oreo DQ Blizzard Cookies
A couple days ago, my wife and I were at the store and, as is usually the case, she ended up visiting the junk food section.
This time around, she picked up a package of Oreo DQ Blizzard Cookies, which by the description on the packaging, were supposed to imitate …
Morrisons Brioche Bread Loaf
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 …
el Monterey taquitos - snack food
We bought a box of these el Monterey chicken and cheese taquitos as well as some other snacks because we were having a bunch of friends over and we thought they would be good party food. We were right. They were easy to make and quite quick, too.
These …
Labrada Nutrition Rock N Roll Caramel Peanut Bar
This nutrition protein bar is pretty tasty. It combines two things that I quite like: caramel and peanuts, so I guess it’s really no surprise that I took a liking to this bar the moment I tasted it. It helps that the bar is made with care and that …
White Hat Yoghurt Ice Cream
Ice cream is really hard to resist and it is the craving of almost everyone. The main ingredient, milk, makes the magic in the ice cream. Though it is proven that milk intake has health benefits, so much ice cream is not good. People who are in strict diet …
Anlene Milk Powder
Anlene Milk is a nutritious milk for everybody. It is created to prevent you from having osteoporosis, an illness that make our bones weaken. Preventive measures are always better than cure that is why I tried drinking Anlene Milk.
Anlene Milk is an Anchor product as far as I know. …
Power Crunch French Vanilla Creme Filled Wafer Cookie
This wafer bar cookie is crispy and tasty. It really is like a wafer cookie, just in bar-form. It’s also more like a cookie than a protein bar for a couple of reasons. The first reason is because it’s not hard and chalky and odd tasting like some other …
Pillsbury Moist Supreme Premium Cake Mix
Me and mom prepared a chocolate cake for my sibling’s graduation day. Unlike before that we usually buy cake in bakeshops. This time we decided to surprised everybody in the family how good mom and I in baking a cake. We made a chocolate cake and we called it …
McCormick Chicken Flavored Gravy
I use McCormick Gravy at least twice a month. I prefer the chicken flavored and use it on mashed potatoes. I have tried many different brands of packaged gravy over the years and have never found anything as good as McCormick’s. It is very important when buying packaged gravy …
A & W Rootbeer
I love root beer! It is the only kind of soda I drink. I actually have only drank root beer for the last 10 years. Believe me, I have tried almost every brand of root beer there is and I always determine that A&W is simply the very best …
Nescafe Cafe Parisien Instant Coffee
Nescafe Cafe Parisien is a gorgeous instant coffee and I think it is my favourite from the Nescafe range. This is supposed to be French coffee, to make us feel as though we are sat outside a Parisien coffee shop watching the world go by. If it …
Morrisons Brittany Butter with Sea Salt Crystals
I do not add a lot of salt to my diet, except for chips and baked potatoes mostly, and I do not usually buy salted butter, but I tried this butter from Morrisons own brand for a change, called Brittany Butter with Sea Salt Crystals. I was brought …
Go Dutch Gouda Cheese Slices
I am a bit lazy when it comes to cooking, especially as I live by myself and cannot always be bothered to get a meal together, so I have at least one cheese sandwich a day. Instead of boring old cheddar, I have enjoyed trying different cheeses lately …
Bendicks Bittermints Chocolate Mints
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. …
Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers
This is a breakfast sandwich that didn’t agree with my stomach. The bits and pieces of sausage in the biscuit were gummy and tasted undercooked and as a result didn’t taste good. When I cook sausage patties on the stove, they certainly don’t come out tasting like this. For …
Michelina’s Four Cheese Lasagna
This frozen dinner doesn’t even look like traditional lasagna. It’s not in a square or rectangular shape and it doesn’t have meat, either. This is a lasagna dish that’s all about the cheese and noodles. The blending of four cheeses is the highlight of this frozen dinner. There’s ricotta …
Pringles Stix Jalapeno
The jalapeno-flavored “stix” from Pringles are just as tasty and good as the cheese-flavored “stix”. The jalapeno flavor has been pretty successfully transferred to these “stix” and they’re even a little hot and biting in taste. They do remind me of jalapenos, and I’m glad that these “stix” turned …
Pringles Stix Pizza
Much like the honey butter variety of Pringles Stix, the pizza “stix” aren’t much to get excited over. They are a little better than the honey butter flavor of “stix”, but they really get blown away by the cheese and the jalapeno flavors. This flavor of “stix” is actually …
Pringles Stix Honey Butter
I didn’t care very much for the honey buttered Pringles Stix. First of all, they weren’t too generous with the honey because there wasn’t much honey flavor. There was enough to make the snack slightly sweet, but it wasn’t a rich flavor that led me to crave more. I …
Pocket Coffee (Ferrero Rocher, chocolate candy)
Ferrero Rocher’s “Pocket Coffee” has become a time-honoured classic candy by now. Each attractively wrapped chunky praline, made of semi-sweet chocolate, is filled with good quality espresso coffee, which gives it quite a “kick”. When I was a university student, I often did use it exactly as it was marketed: …
Nescafe Creme (instant coffee, granulated)
Among coffee lovers, there is a secret rift seldom talked about: the “great divide” between those who swear by traditionally brewed coffee and those who actually prefer instant coffee. I am one of these. To me, nothing beats a good instant coffee.
However, I am very picky about instant coffee. …
Nescafe Cappuccino (decaffeinated)
I like a good coffee. But, in my mind, cappuccino isn’t really “coffee” proper - to me, it’s more of a “dessert”, or more accurately, a comfort drink. The problem is, sometimes I feel I really need more than one such comfort drink - and then caffeine starts piling up.
Luckily …
R.D. Oskins Carrot Cakes
Never one to refuse a slice of carrot cake, I was thrilled when I saw a box of individually wrapped cupcakes that featured one of my all time favorites. As I also I like to pack a treat in my children’s lunches, I figured I couldn’t pass …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink
Gone are the days that you still need to squeeze the orange to make it a yummy fruit juice. Because today, the market now offers the real pulp of an orange juice drink, it’s Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Drink. I was able to try this drink when I …
Pringles Stix Cheese
If I had to, I don’t think I could choose between the cheese-flavored “stix” and the jalapeno-flavored “stix”, both made by Pringles. Both are really good and great to have just as a snack or with a sandwich in place of potato chips. This review is about the cheese-flavored …
Jelliyum Ice Pops
I started selling this fruit flavored ice candies in our neighborhood last summer. It made me earn an extra income, almost enough to pay more than half of our monthly electricity consumption.It really has great taste that comes in different flavors which made it addictive for the kids around …
Chocolate Peppermint
I have been growing this plant for years with 100% satisfaction and success. I got my first plant in a trade years ago, and started over 100 new plants from that single seedling over the course of the next 2 years. I gave baby plants away, traded them for …
Michelina’s Chili-Mac frozen dinner
This frozen dinner didn’t do much to impress me. I think what ruined this frozen dinner in my eyes is the weak tomato sauce. There was unfortunately nothing special about it. It was just there. It didn’t contribute much in terms of flavor and so it didn’t enhance the …
Michelina’s Chicken Fried Rice
This is a delicious frozen meal that I love to have on occasion. It’s not exactly filling on its own, so I tend to have to add some mashed potatoes and bread, but when I do that, I end up getting filled up mighty nicely and I end up …
Michelina’s Cheese Pizza
I didn’t care very much for this frozen pizza. Except for the cheese, it was really pretty tasteless. Neither the crust nor the tomato sauce stood out. The crust was thin, although not crispy, and didn’t taste like much of anything or break real easily when bitten into. The …
Labrada Nutrition Lean Body On the Go Ready to Drink Vanilla Ice Cream
Labrada Nutrition’s Bananas and Cream as well as their Strawberries and Cream flavored drinks are pretty delicious, with the former being the most delicious, while this flavor is only slightly above average in quality. It’s still better than the Chocolate Ice Cream drink the company makes, but the vanilla …
Extra Joss Energy Drink
For a person like me who are always have some activities to finish in a day, meetings that I need to attend, paper works that I need to submit on time, blogs that need to be updated. Having an energy booster is so much important. This what thrilled me …
Spice Traders and Teas: Pomegranate Green
As a lover a tea, I love to try as many new varieties and flavors as possible. Interestingly enough, I have found that good places to find new varieties of tea are renaissance faires. It is at a particular renaissance fair that I found the variety of tea which …
