This is a kind of fancy organic French tea that normally I probably wouldn’t buy, because I don’t like to spend a lot of money on tea. However, ever since I first tasted this brand, and this flavor in particular, I became a huge fan.
One of the things that …

I love cake and brownies, but I live alone so it’s often a bad idea to cok a whole pan of browniess. I either can’t eat them all, or I try to eat them all which is a slo a horrible idea. Betty Crocker has just come out with …

Rollin Oats makes the old fashioned oatmeal which takes about five minutes to cook and the quick oats that take only a minute to cook. I prefer the quick oats. I usually purchase Rollin Oats at my local Save-A-Lot store for a 1.79 for a 42 oz container. Typically …

One of my favorite places hands down to go eat at in Berkeley. There are very few people who I have also talked to that disagree that Sam’s is an amazing store. Being brought onto the crucial telegraph space next to Walgreens a few years ago, it is one of …

I like Oreo cookies in general because they are very tasty but in the same time they are not very sweet. So when Milka brand made Milka chocolate with Oreo cookies in it I really wanted to check it out. I am a big fan of Milka chocolate in general …

I must admit that where pizza is concerned, I’m basically a sausage and pepperoni type. I have flings from time to time with Canadian Bacon or something, but when I buy it, I tend to stick with what is tried and true. I’ve already reviewed DiGiorno For …

I am a person that loves those cookies made by Nabisco which goes by the name of Oreos. Since the invention of the original Oreo cookie there have been so many variations on this cookie it is amazing. One of the variations are called Double Stuf Oreos and they …

I love muffins and I’m pleased to see the trend toward overly large, too sweet muffins seems to be coming to a close. Muffins are supposed to be a bread, not a cupcake.
Haggen Foods here in Bellingham seems to be correcting its previous tendency of cakeness and I am …

I’ve always been a coffee drinker, everyone in my family is. I absolutely adore it, even as a baby my mom and grandma would give me some of their lattes in the morning, so of course drinking it from a very young age, I am now absolutely obsessed with …

Country Harvest bagels are to me the best bagels in the world! I am a huge fan of bagels, and would eat a bagel for breakfast or even lunch in any given day.
I find that a bagel relieves my craving for food a lot. And this Country …

I don’t like most donuts made out here, and one of these brand of donuts are Pastry Castle donuts. I usually see people selling a box of Pastry Castle donuts that contains 8 different donuts. I can’t exactly remember all of the flavours of donuts that are usually in …

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 …

Jell-o Instant Pudding - Devil’s Food is not a pudding variety that I will likely purchase a second time. I simply do not care for this pudding variety when I have the chocolate variety that I can purchase and enjoy. There is nothing really wrong with this variety, but …

The Bounty chocolate bar is absolute classic confectionary and I bought one recently for the first time in years - I have been concentrating on trying the newer bars I suppose. These are manufactured by American company, Mars, although they are apparently not so widely available in the …

Sometimes I buy concentrated fruit juices because they are less expensive and when it is about juice I don’t drink it very often but when I do I don’t like to spend a lot of money on it. Knowing that concentrated versions of cherry juices cost about 2 Euros …

I really like the Talenti brand, and I buy a lot of their gelato flavors, despite the high price; however, the Tahitian Vanilla Bean, while a good base for other desserts, is not one of their best flavors.
At about $5 per pint, this is a fairly expensive ice …

I love spoon size Frosted Shredded Wheat, but I don’t love the fact that they use gelatin in their cereal. It seems very unnecessary to me. For that reason alone I stopped eating it all together. It wasn’t until my friend introduced me to Post brand Lightly Frosted Shredded …

I will start this review by pointing out that Bisto Gravy Granules do not actually contain meat and so are suitable for vegetarians like me. I deprived myself of gravy with my (vegetarian) bangers and mash for years and years because I assumed that Bisto contained some kind …

I have a major sweet tooth. One that keeps me craving for chocolate most of the time. During the Halloween season I tried a new kind of Hershey’s kiss that left me craving more than one. It was a taste that I had never experienced before from a Hershey’s …

Frito Lay hands down makes the best sun flower seeds. Their brand of barbeque flavor is simply amazing. Most sunflower seed companies use mostly a salt flavor for barbeque. Not this brand, of course they use salt as a main ingredient, but the flavor is a sweet barbeque. …

I’m an absolute lover of chocolate brownies, but sometimes I need to shake up both my taste buds and stomach. I don’t go too far off the beaten path, but when I do it’s only for Pillsbury fudge supreme cheesecake swirl brownie mix.
I love cheesecake and I love chocolate …

There …

I am something of a chocoholic - I love all things chocolatey, from cakes to bars and everything in between. Yet my concerns about a fair trade for developing world producers (where most cocoa is grown) and worries about forced child labour has led me to try to focus …

Most of the kids or I must say all the children love to eat the sweets and biscuits. Biscuits are the food for some of the kids, as they love to eat them to such an extent. There is a new kind of biscuit that can be …

Ever since I first saw Great Value brats at our local Walmart, I have wanted to try them. But, even though they are a store brand, they have always been more expensive than the Johnsonville brats I normally buy so I never did.
This past weekend, however, they were about …

“Tastee Cheddar Cheese” is possibly the most popular brand of cheese which is bought in my country Jamaica. It may be sold in big, medium or small tins as well as by slices in most shops and supermarkets. A few years ago, the company even released Tastee Cheddar Cheese …

Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews was picked by me because of price advantage over full pieces. Around half of the box was broken pieces and rest was halves of cashews. The cashews seemed roasted and processed. Evidently the quality grade of cashews was pretty low. This was …

I bought Knorr Orange Soup at the same time I purchased Knorr Red Soup. Both were on sale for $1.99 at my local grocery store, and I have to say the sight of those fresh spring carrots on the front of the box of Orange Soup looked very appealing.
I …

When I hear the word Volcano I think of extremely hot lava that could burn anything before it even touches it, so when I bit into Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for the first time I felt like someone had lied to me. The taco was not hot at all, …

I love Knorr products and have purchased other boxed gourmet soups with the Knorr name so when their Red Soup came on sale for only $1.99 down from $2.99 at my local supermarket I bought it straight away. The 500ml cardboard carton advertised that it served two people so …

I love Tim Horton’s coffee. It’s less acidic than most coffees I can buy, and it’s always fresh and hot. So, it was no surprise that when I ordered a Tim Horton’s hot chocolate recently, it was also smooth, creamy, delicious. It’s just the right amount of milkiness, sweet …

Once upon a time, whenever we packed our daughter’s school lunch, we made sure to have only the healthiest foods inside it. However, we learned she would rarely eat the entire lunch and I came to the realization I would rather have her eating something rather than making sure …

Little Debbie Snacks Zebra Cakes offer a welcomed change of pace from all the chocolate snacks and dessert items in the grocery store today. Now, there is some chocolate to be found on these cakes - they are called Zebra cakes after all - but the amount of chocolate …

Although I am a vegetarian and can no longer indulge in the pleasures of lunchmeats, I spent years devouring Hillshire Farms Deli Turkey Meat. It was one of my regular purchases when doing my weekly shopping as it is both extremely convenient to have and quite delicious to boot. …

I’ve only seen Mr. Pudding pudding products at ALDI, and I think I know why: they just aren’t that good. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla pudding, and the same can be said for the chocolate pudding, too. Four cups come in a pack and each cup is three …

Lemon pepper fish is a classic in my opinion. I loved that I was able to find a frozen entrée version of it so that I could have it whenever I wanted without having to prepare it!
However, I discovered that this frozen entree a little bit disappointing. It’s …

I just bought today Jolly Hotdog. I saw from advertisement on television that their Jolly Hotdog is back, with new flavors. Now it is available in Classic, Chili, and Bacon and Mushroom Tops.

I wanted to use my garden vegetables for a pizza last weekend and, as a result of that, ended up running to the local grocery store in search of some pizza crust.
Since my daughters don’t really like pizza with toppings, the plan was to buy two crusts, one for …

Golden Fiesta Cooking Oil is my favorite cooking oil brand. You can definitely use this oil several times and it can still make your fried foods look golden as the name suggests. Golden Fiesta is reasonably priced and it is very easy to find. This product is available almost …

One of my favorite snacks is the broccoli bites that are so popular at the steak sandwich shops in the Philadelphia metro area. Little bits of broccoli with cheddar or mozzarella cheese rolled together and breaded and fried….so bad yet soooooo good!!
When I happened upon a bag of …

CVS Fudge Striped Shortbread Cookies are modeled after the Keebler Fudged Stripes cookies. Not only do the cookies sold under the CVS Pharmacy name look identical to the national brand, but they also taste just as good! The fudge is rich and tasty and the shortbread cookie leaves a …

When I saw this new summer edition Mikado chocolate collection I couldn’t resist and I took all there chocolates from the collection. There were apricot and cream milk chocolate and strawberry and cream milk chocolate in the collection and lime and cream one. I must say that I was …

I was disappointed with these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Gingerbread Cookies. The reason I found myself disappointed with these cookies is because of a lack of flavor. There was not much flavor to be tasted at all. It was almost like eating a crunchy piece of nothing. I will …

Now showing: The Case of the Missing Almonds *cue creepy mystery music*…..Lean Cuisine’s website describes Chicken with Almonds meal as: “Chicken tenderloins in a rich soy sauce,topped with sliced almonds and served with a medley of white rice,green beans, yellow carrots and broccoli florets.” It’s part of the Cafe …

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 …

My favorite loose leaf red raspberries leaves to use to make my red raspberry tea is the Starwest Botanicals Red Raspberry Leaf …

I spotted these Mini Chocolate Brownies in Sainsbury’s and based on the picture of the brownies on the label, I just had to have them as they looked sumptuous. I associate Thorntons with delicious, luxurious chocolate products but I did not know they made brownies available in the …
