Like the berry pie, Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie is quite delicious on the inside but pretty poor when it comes to the bland and dry crust. The cherry filling is really very satisfying and rich, plus it has an authentic taste to it, which is something that is certainly …

I have never heard of Helen Grace Chocolates until my aunt from the US brought me one when she came over for a vacation. It was a nice, brown, opulent-looking box with a nice ribbon, and it said the words Helen Grace. Actually, just from looking at it, I …

I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …

I have consumed sodas most of my life.

It seems, according to several studies, that artificial sweeteners …

Is there any better tasting beer than Corona? Corona means Crown in Spanish, and I have to think I agree with their assessment. They are far more the King of Beers than Budweiser could ever hope to be.
I am not myself much of a beer drinker, although …

I was a little apprehensive about drinking the Almond chocolate drink. This particular beverage comes in a little juice-box looking contraption, complete with a straw that you punch into the box. Pacific Almond drink packages look pretty weird. And they seem to be …

Ok it is true, I am almost 27 years odl and my favourite chocolate is the chocolate for kids. I really wonder how many grown ups can say that they don’t like this chocolate? I guess our taste doesn’t change that much with years because when I was little …

I love Trident White peppermint flavored chewing gum. My girlfriend bought that particular pack of gum, and now we both chew it. There’s something about the taste that isn’t as overbearing as other flavored gum. Okay, I’ll explain:
After brushing my teeth, I feel a light build-up of toothpaste still …

I have purchased blueberry mini muffins from this brand before and was pretty happy with them …

I prefer the Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry compared to the Nature’s Path: Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastry. The reason I prefer the non-frosted over the frosted is because the non-frosted variety allows me to better appreciate and enjoy the blueberry flavor. Speaking of the blueberry flavor, I find the …
