Kraft Tarter Sauce
When it comes to condiments, nothing is better than tartar sauce. I started eating it in elementary on the “fish” days for lunch, and I have continued to eat tartar sauce throughout the years. I’m not really sure how long Kraft has been making tartar sauce, but I just …
Arby’s Deluxe JR. Sandwich
I love Arby’s and yesterday I finally got a chance to try their new Deluxe Jr. Sandwich. I had seen the ads on TV and I was thrilled that they finally jumped on the “value menu” wagon and had a special sandwich—“ and it even had lettuce and …
Ramsons Vegetarian Baked Beans
Recently my parents brought home two tins of Ramson’s Vegetarian Baked Beans. Upon seeing the title I imagined that the beans might taste a little different from the other brands that we were used to buying , but as it turns out that wasn’t the case. The word “vegetarian” …
Royal Basmati Rice
This rice is made in India but is sold in Indian grocery stores throughout the US. I’ve also seen this at Costco as well.

Nik Naks Nice n Spicy
The Nice ‘n’ Spicy flavour of Nik Naks is the best, and Nik Naks generally are one of my favourite type of crisps. They are crisps as such, but they are a crisp type snack. They are made of corn and are puffy little, knobbly pieces of …
Jack-N-the-Box French Fries
Jack-n-the-box fries are pretty disappointing because I expected them to taste a lot better. Jack-n-the-box has a lot of really great offerings, which is why I stop by the fast food place whenever I get the chance, which isn’t that often. I love a lot of their different foods, …
Powerade: Sour Melon
Powerade: Sour Melon is one of the newer flavors of the powerade family. I purchased this beverage at the family dollar store for a $1.08. I got the entire thirty-two ounce ounce size chilled. The liquid itself is a neon green, not glow in the dark but a bit …
Sobe Life Water
Sobe Life Water is a big joke as far as I’m concerned. I mean, the bottle is pretty, and the advertisements are appealing, but come on! It is an insult to our intelligence to pay that much money for water that tastes like it has some strange …
Jiffy Mixes
I always purchase Mixes made by Jiffy. I always have stocks of the little blue boxes in my pantry because it always comes in handy when I am too tired to cook from scratch. The Jiffy Mixes are manufactures by Chelsea Mills of Michigan and it has been a …
Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Chocolaty Chip Bars
Due to my digestive problems, I need to eat about 40 grams of fiber a day. It isn’t easy to find healthy sources of fiber because most healthy sources tend to be bland, not to mention unpalatable as well. Whenever I buy snacks, I always look at …
Cafe21, 2 in 1 instant white coffee mix, without sugar
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 …
Digiorno Supreme Pizza
Pizza is one of my all time favorite foods to eat. I don’t’ often order pizza because of the prices and quality. The pizza is usually very skimp and cost about 15 bucks. I wanted to have some real pizza at home. I remembered the commercial stating that Digiorno …
Wrigley’s Orbit Complete Sugar Free Chewing Gum
I like to have some gum on me at all times as not only is it good for freshening my post-cigarette breath but it helps to clean my teeth. Gum acts like a mini mouthwash as it gets your saliva flowing and dislodges bits of food remaining after …

Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls Classic
Few things in life give me as much joy as when I bite into a warm freshly made Cinnabon Cinnamon roll. In fact I would do some pretty shameful things just to get a cup of the cream cheese based frosting that comes with them.
The cinnamon rolls themselves …
Century Canned Tuna

South Beach living on the go drink mixes
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 …

Minute Maid Premium Orange Juice is a staple in my family. Every morning we have our orange juice before starting our day. One day, I didn’t realize that we were out of the Minute Maid, so I served my family another brand that I happened to have …
Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls to be pretty much standard fare. By standard fare, I mean that there is nothing that really sets these Swiss Rolls apart from those made by other companies. In fact, Little Debbie offers a packaged variety of Swiss Rolls that have different fillings …
Aro chakki fresh atta
Aro chakki fresh atta is also the very good branded atta, which is from the company Aro. Now already we know about the many products of the Arrow Company and now it is the chakki fresh atta by the same company, which I am going to talk about. …
Lender’s Onion Bagel Shop Bagels
I love onion bagels! I like to eat them more than I like to eat regular or plain bagels. Because I don’t like to eat cream cheese on my bagels, it’s important to me that the bagels taste great all by themselves. My favorite kind is the savory type …
Special K Honey and Granola
Special K is a deliciously healthy cereal that I have enjoyed time and time again. Recently I have tried their newest flavor of Honey and Granola and I was not disappointed in the least. This flavor really sets the bar now for the other flavors of Special K, because …
Neuro Drinks - Neuro Sleep

The other day I visited my local Mexican supermarket and bought a few fresh guava fruits while I was there. The ones I purchased are the small Mexican variety with the white insides and the green outsides. Basically they look like little green golf balls. I have never eaten …

Kissables candy
Hershey’s new Kissables candies are just adorable, if you ask me. They are like miniature, colored Hershey’s Kisses with some personality and bling to them! They are a candy-coated chocolate product that live up to their cute disposition, too! They’re tasty and just by eating a …
Carnation Hot Chocolate drink mix
I drink quite a bit of hot chocolate, especially in the winter. I probably have a mug or two of it each day because I don’t really drink coffee. So because of this, I have tried lots of different kinds of hot chocolate.
I find that I prefer Nestle Carnation …

Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original
As a fan of silk products I wasn’t hesitant in trying Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original. I’ve previously tried the vanilla flavored one and absolutely loved it. For a while I hadn’t considered that there was actually an original flavor until I saw it one day in the store. …
Fuze Blend: Peach Mango Beverage
I brought myself a bottle of Fuze Peach Mango when my neighborhood Albertson was running a sale for $2 for 3. I am no stranger to the brand Fuze, so I was not hesitant to try this particular flavor. From the time I was a little girl and …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp
The Café Steamers sounds like a nice concept —“ the steam of the sauce warms up food components above. Some of the varieties sounded very appealing and I wanted to try every one of them. I started with the Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp. You get …
Blue Diamond Unsweetened Almond Breeze
I found my self smack in the middle of the dairy aisle the other day unsure of where to turn. It would seem that the more diet and fitness programs I study the more I agonize over sugar, fat, and calorie contents.
It’s getting so, …
Tesco Freeze Dried Chives
These chives from the Tesco range of seasonings are really rather good. A lot of people are turned off by jars of seasonings, especially dried stuff, and the rise in organic food and grow your own has no doubt turned people off this simple alternative, but don’t let that …
McDonalds Fruit and Maple Oatmeal
My teenage son went to McDonalds this week with a friend, and they gave him a coupon for a free fruit and maple oatmeal, the restaurant’s latest edition to the breakfast menu. He doesn’t like oatmeal, so he gave me the coupon. This morning I redeemed the …

Fudgsicles
We buy fudgsicles as a treat when they are on sale. Usually we can get a box of them for around three dollars. Each box contains eight Fudgsicles, so it is a fairly good price if you get them when there’s a special.
I love the fudgey taste of these …
Nestle Premium Chocolate Drink
I don’t really enjoy chocolate drinks as much as I do enjoy iced teas. But Nestle’s new Creamy chocolate drink (Guilt Free) is a good choice for the chocolate lovers but are health conscious. This is another premium drink alongside other milk products like the melon flavored milk, and …
Haldirams Cornflakes Mixture Snack
