They were …

Ribena drink
When the weather turns hot, the drinks industry rubs its hands with glee. Hot weather means cold drinks and ice. Something to quench the thirst on a summer’s day. Maybe something to soothe a dry throat in the middle of a sports competition —“ half-time in a soccer match, …
Whopper
The Burger King Whopper is definitely one of my favorites. I get it with cheese because I’m a big cheese lover. With the Whopper, I think it starts with the meat. It’s flamed broiled goodness. When it’s warm it almost melts in your mouth. …

Meijer brand Monterey Pepper Jack Cheese
I’m a bit of a cheeseaholic. I simply can’t get enough. I don’t really care for the highly ‘fake’ cheeses, like Velveeta, cheese spreads in jars, or liquid cheeses. I do love any kind that comes in a brick that I can cut into chunks and …
Deer Park Spring Water
Deer Park brand spring water is a fine example of decent bottled water actually worth paying for. Although water doesn’t have a particular flavor, it can still taste bad. Deer Park water, however, has a refreshing lack of chemical taste. They claim it comes from real …
Cryastal Light
I surprised myself recently when I tried a glass of Cryastal Light. It did not taste at all like any kind of diet drink I have ever tasted in the past! It was not only quiet refreshing, but it had tang and zest to it. I …
Popcorn, Indiana Original Movie Theater Popcorn
This is a great treat to eat when I want a good old-fashioned popcorn that has a nice blend of butter and salt. I guess that’s why this Indiana company refers to it as movie theater popcorn. I heard that if you eat popcorn by itself with no butter …

Pop Weaver Extra Butter Popcorn
I personally can’t taste a whole lot more butter on this variety of popcorn compared to the “Butter” variety, also made by Pop Weaver. I can certainly feel it on my fingers, but I can’t quite taste the extra butter once the popcorn leaves my hand and enters my …
President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal
When I bought the President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal, I thought of it as a “poor man’s Special K”. Personally, I am not big on brand names (whether it’s food or clothing), so I picked up the PC brand instead of Kellogg’s.
The cereal is a mix of dried …

Loven Fresh Whole Grain White Bread
I came upon this bread about a month ago. I’d purchased Aldi branded breads in the past, including their 12-grain bread, but hadn’t seen the whole grain white before. I have to tell you, it’s really quite good.
You can’t beat Aldi’s prices on bread, first of all. …

I picked it up looking for something warm to …
