Wal-Mart Great Value Cotton Candy Ice Cream Sandwiches
I’m traditional when it comes to ice cream sandwiches: I prefer the chocolate cookie on the outside, and the vanilla ice cream in the center. As a child it was my favorite treat to have after dinner, or if I was really good my grandmother would give me one just …
Old Dutch Potato Chips
My favorite brand of potato chips is Old Dutch. They come in quite a few varieties, like plain, dill pickle, and sour cream and onion. They also come in either regular style of ripple. Their plain potato chips come in boxes, and the variety flavors come …
Cadburys Gems
Cadburys gems are a solid flavour coated chocolates of small sizes, which comes in different colors and different flavours. It is my child’s favourite chocolate. Which is not very costly but very tasty and delicious to eat. It is another good product from the company cadbarie’s. …
Tokyo Tokyo’s Fried Chicken Karaage Sumo Remix
I really love Japanese foods. I really appreciate them.. but to tell you honestly, I am not a big fan of Tokyo Tokyo. Why? Well, for me it is over priced, and I don’t like their California maki.. It doesn’t taste nor look fresh at all. So I rather …
The Co operative Egg Mayonnaise Deli Filler
Usually I would not choose to have egg mayonnaise as I tend to find it rather bland, but I thought I had nothing to lose in trying this one from The Co-op’s own brand as it was reduced to only 25 pence. The Co-op is great for dramatic …
Old Orchard Healthy Balance Juices
If you live with a diabetic like I do you know that sugar and carbs are difficult to stay away from. These juices are sweetened with Splenda therefore they contain 75% less sugar and what sugars they do have is from the fruit itself. These juices also all under …
Strawberries & Creme Creme Savers
I have discovered a new candy dish filler: Strawberries & Creme Creme Savers. If you like the taste of strawberry, you’ll love this hard candy. I bought a bag for my husband who is a strawberry fan, and we both liked it. The 6 oz bag costs a little …
Texas Pete: Red Hot Sauce
This hot sauce is indeed hot! It burns and doesn’t quit burning for a few moments. I like that I don’t need to pour it on, either. A little will do! That being said, it’s not just hot, but flavorful too. The flavor of the sauce reminds me of …
Go Nuts Teazzings
I had cravings for a donut just a while ago and well, being with a friend, I took the opportunity to actually grab a bite of a donut or two. We ordered at Go Nuts Donuts, a local donut food chain here in the Philippines. I had a peanut …
Food Club Mexican Shredded Cheese

Starbucks Via Ready Brew Instant Coffee
Every morning for the last 10 years I have gotten up and made a standard brewed pot of starbucks coffee. I drink several cups of this in the morning and by afternoon the coffee is stale and gross. Every afternoon I have to decide if …
Kellogg’s Special K Blondie Brownie Bites
I like snack foods that come in convenient one-hundred calorie bags. Not only is it an easy way to keep track of a serving size, but also, it can serve as a guilt mechanism for the conscious. It can be an honest, easy mistake to go over the recommended …
Mrs Millers Mustard
Mrs. Millers Mustard is a delicious sweet hot banana mustard blend that I discovered at a farmers flea market in Ohio. I love hot pepper mustard, banana peppers and mustard in general. So I did not hesitate to pick up a jar of Mrs. Millers Hot banana pepper mustard.
It …
Lean Cuisine Baked Chicken
I usually like Lean Cuisine meals, but this one was disgusting. I didn’t even finish it, and that’s really saying something for me! Lean Cuisine’s packaging describes this meal as “chicken tenderloins with cornbread stuffing & whipped potatoes.” There wasn’t one thing I liked about this meal, so let’s …
Ritz Toasted Chips
I recently acquired a coupon for the new toasted chips by Ritz and thought I would give them a try. The chips are essentially very thin crackers that have been toasted and then put in a bag. They are very tasty and are not as fattening as other chip …
Quorn Veggie Patties and Nuggets
After a long history of eating various veggie burgers, I was really stunned when I bought the Quorn product. My boyfriend, who is a carnivore, had no idea that it was not chicken. The patty and nuggets are white like chicken breast meat, and have a texture that …
Nido Nestle powdered milk
I’ve always been a big fan of Nido Nestle instant full cream milk ever since I was a little kid. The reason why I love this milk of all the powdered milk out in the supermarket is because it taste like a real fresh cow’s milk and it …
Selecta Fortified Milk
I prefer to drink fresh milk before I go to bed at night. I tried this new Selecta Fortified Milk that I found in a grocery. This is sterilized filled milk that is fortified with Vitamins like A,D, B complex, calcium and Niacin that helps our bones to be …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Giovanni Rana, Sfoglaivelo Torellini with Gorgonzola and walnuts
When I saw this product on a discount I took it immediately and I immediately knew what my lunch for that day was going to be. I like gorgonzola and I like walnuts so I was expecting a very delicious and delicate although intensive taste. Well, I guess sometimes …
Earth Grains Sweet French Rolls
Back in college, I had my first hoagie sandwich ever, and let’s just say after having one, it just wasn’t enough. I just loved those things. Since then, I have naturally enjoyed many hoagies and similar sandwiches. One of my favorites is the popular sub sandwich, …
Sainsbury’s Basics Chocolate Dessert Mix
This chocolate dessert from Sainsbury’s ‘Basics’ range is supposed to be like a cheap version of Angel Delight and it is only 9 pence per sachet. I frequently buy a cheap version of Angel Delight from Tesco’s ‘Value’ range but as they do not do a chocolate flavour …
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 …
Tanduay Superior
Rums have always been among the more common drinks available almost everywhere. Among the rums we know of today is Tanduay Superior. Tanduay Superior is a twelve-year-old rum manufactured by La Tondeña, a Philippine rum maker.
I, personally, rate the quality of a drink through its aftertaste. When I first …
Great Value Whole Kernel Corn
One of the side dishes I decided to make with dinner last night was sweet corn from the brand Great Value.
I have had Great Value products in the past and have been happy with them for the most part but will confess this particular item was a disappointment to …
Excitemint Soft Peppermint Puffs
A ten ounce bag of Excitemint Soft Peppermint Puffs can be found at ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and forty-nine cents. I was very impressed with this peppermint candy, although I think I would’ve enjoyed the peppermint candy some more if the peppermint candy had been harder, …
Palermo’s Frozen Pizza
My husband is on the road a lot of the time for work. When he is home we have to have the full meal deal. When he is gone, my girls and I slack off in the cooking department. Like most kids, my girls like frozen pizza’s as well …
Lipton Iced Tea
I bought one can of Lipton Iced Tea from the US. Although I love juice especially the freshly squeezed ones, I still crave for iced tea sometimes. During days when the sun is extremely hot, it is one of the best treat to drink one glass of iced tea. I …
Mountain Dew Throwback
Those who grew up in the 60s and early 70s remember the delicious taste of Mountain Dew out of a bottle with a hayseed on it. The hicks in the sticks ambiance associated with that Mountain Dew apparently did not jibe with the evolution of American drinking habits during …
Char-Broiled Beff Patties
One of my families favorite frozen entr’e’s is the Char-Broiled Beef Patties made by Freezer Queen that cost $1.79 at Wal-Mart. We never used to buy frozen dinners much because they were always more expensive than buying regular meat to cook. However with the price of ground beef …
Printed Fun Pop Tarts - NASCAR
Printed Fun Pop Tarts are a limited edition product promoting the Hendrick Motor Sports racers in NASCAR. Actually, the shots for the promotion were done in 2008, though the product is just now available in early 2009. As a result, one of the four drivers isn’t actually …
Kettle Chips: New York Cheddar
Yum yum!! When I don’t want barbeque I so head for New York Cheddar. Most of the time. I love the tangy cheese that tastes like real sharp cheddar instead of the weird cheeselike orange powder one can find elsewhere. The chips are perfectly cooked too …
Winking Owl Vineyards Shiraz
Winking Owl Vineyard’s Shiraz wine is sold by Aldi’s supermarkets. It retails for 2.99 a bottle. I was curious to try this because you never know if a bottle of wine that retails for 2.99 will be any good.
I have had some low cost wines that werent.
I can attest …
Chef Boyardee Mac and Cheese
I bought this can of macaroni and cheese to take on vacation for my daughter. I needed something very easy that I could prepare if she hated what I had made for dinner but it needed to be very easy and not use a lot of pans …
Pionir Chocolate Banana
I really likes chocolate bananas, they are quite cheap and they are also very good. Actually this product doesn’t have real bananas in it but it is a chocolate coated foam dessert with banana flavour and it has 20g. It comes in a plastic wrapping while is yellow on …
Chipster’s Potato Chips
The first time I heard of the product CHipster’s potato chips was a little after I gratuated from high school or maybe I was about to graduate. I heard it advertising on the radio a lot and judged by the accents of people used to advertise them that the …
Mr Kipling Lemon Slices
I have bought these tempting little bites quite often as I trust the Mr Kipling brand and his ‘exceedingly good cakes’ and this is a familiar brand since childhood. I wish I could cut down on my munchies but although I love savory food I do like a …
Edwards Singles Hot Fudge Brownie with Creamy Ice Cream
After trying a couple of other Edwards products, I saw this on sale and decided to see how it tasted. The product in question was Edwards Singles Hot Fudge Brownie with Creamy Ice Cream. The packaging and process of preparation is almost identical to their Turtle version …

Irish Spring Icy Blast
This is a fantastic deodorizing soap as long as you are not scent sensitive. These 90g boxed soap’s usually come in a pack of three and retail for about $2.49CDN.
Irish Spring soap is good value for money, I’ve noticed they do lather up nicely in the shower but they …
Publix Strawberry and Almond Cheesecake
I can’t be certain of who introduced me to the Publix strawberry and almond cheesecake, but I give them many thanks for doing so.
Before I started eating Publix strawberry and almond cheesecake, I wasn’t really a big cheesecake eater: I didn’t eat cheesecake religiously. I remember my mom brought …
Nutella Ferrero
Nutella is one of the most famous chocolate cream in the world. It is produced in Italy by Ferrero company. I don’t like sweets very much but sometimes I feel like I want to eat something sweet and then if I have Nutella at home it is usually my …
Maine Goodies Humpty Dumpty All Dressed Chips
Maine Goodies Humpty Dumpty All Dressed Chips consist of a peculiar combination: vinegar and barbecue. I suppose it should not surprise me that the combination is odd with a product that sports such an odd name. I have never had a chip that merged both vinegar and barbecue together …
Dim Sum
The popular dish Dim Sum means ‘to touch your heart’ in Cantonese. It consists of a wide variety of dumplings, steamed dishes and other goodies. It has a combination of meat, vegetables, seafood and fruit. Classic dim sum includes bau, dumplings and rice rolls. They are usually served with …
Healthy Ones Cooked Ham
A while back, I decided to give Healthy Ones Cooked Ham a try. The package says it’s 97% fat free and it boasts the symbol of the American Heart Association. I’m not a dieter, though I should be, and I’m very finicky about what foods I eat. …
Dari Creme Lite
I always like to use Dari Creme for my bread. It also tastes good for crackers. My mom bought Dari Creme Lite one time. It has less cholesterol, less fat, and less salt than the original Dari Creme. When I tried tasting it, it is less tasty. It really …
Fruit Loops
I am reviewing one of my favorite brands of cereal, Fruit Loops. Fruit Loops is a breakfast cereal produced by Kelloggs. It is available in Canada, The United States, Latin America, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Germany, so if you are reading this you are probably a short …
Bolthouse Farms Parfait Breakfast Smoothies
I honestly can’t remember the last time I purchased a Bolthouse Farms smoothie drink, but when I recently purchased the strawberry and peach breakfast parfait smoothie it was because Publix had a buy one get one free sale going on. Also, because I work at a plant keeping hydrated …
Mrs. Freshley’s Doughnut Sticks
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Doughnut Sticks to be a tasty treat to have every once and a great while. Granted, these doughnut sticks are not quite as fresh as the doughnuts that can be purchased at the local doughnut shop or the doughnuts that are sold behind the glass …
