Monster Energy Energy Drink
I was not feeling well when I went to a seminar, year 2008. I suddenly felt cold and my taste buds were going sour. I really wanted to vomit but I was in the middle of a seminar. I controlled what I was feeling with all my might. After …
Twix chocolate bar
Twix chocolate bar is my old time favorite. Since childhood I always asked my relative from states to bought me some dozen of it. This chocolate was introduced by my friend from school, a close friend of mine gave me one pieces of chocolate as a birthday present. And …
Nestle Hot Cocoa Mix - Double Chocolate Meltdown
It’s been a while since I’ve purchased hot cocoa, but since I’m economizing by keeping my heat off most of the time, I thought I’d get some more to help warm me up during those colder moments of the day and/or night. I decided to purchase Nestle Hot …
Perk Poppers chocolate
I knew about this chocolate since a long time but I never tasted it. Perk Poppers are actually a set of oval balls containing biscuit-like fillings coated with chocolate. They are packed in a small bag, which is half the size of a cargo pocket. I ate this chocolate …
Harvest Chewee Milk Choc Chip Cereal Bars
Harvest Chewee Milk Choc Chip cereal bars can be found at the bargain price of just 99p for a box of 9. Widely available in supermarkets, I bought my last box from my local Heron store. I love most cereal bars anyway, but they are even more …

Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar
These Hostess Donettes - Powdered Sugar variety are much, much more tolerable than the downright hideous chocolate variety that I simply could not possibly stomach. While I did just say they are much, much more tolerable, I did not say they were excellent, or even great. The powdered sugar …
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 …
Hide and seek choco biscuits
The Hid and seek choco biscuits are something really special, because of it taste and small size choco chips hidden inside. As soon as we put a Hide and seek choco biscuit in our mouth it just melts and the hidden choco chips give the wonderful taste of …
Hartley’s Raspberry Jelly
First of all, I had better emphasise that “jelly” in the case of this product means the British use of the word, as in what Americans tend to call “Jell-O”, rather than being any sort of jam. Hartley’s is the company that bought out the old Rowntree’s Jelly products …
Istanbul Express Lamb Doner with Rice
Istanbul Express is one of our favourite restaurant destinations in Hong Kong. They have a lot of authentic Turkish dishes such as Shawarma, Kebabs, Lamb, etc. However, I will just focus on one dish that they serve and this is my favourite: the Lamb Doner with rice meal.
This …

Stevia In The Raw, Zero Calorie Sweetener
Stevia in the Raw is a product I was introduced to by a good friend. As the days go by I am leaning away from traditional ways of sweetening my beverages and foods. I do not like artificial sweeteners, simply because they are disgusting and I try to stay …

Food Club Frozen Broccoli

Amy’s Split Pea Soup, Light in Sodium
I love Amy’s convenient natural meals. I think I have tried just about everything, well everything of their vegan line anyway. This was my first time trying the Amy’s Split Pea, light in sodium, Soup.
I really enjoyed the thick and flavorful taste of the soup. The …
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, …
Tesco Vegetable spring roll
I’ve got this Tesco vegetable spring roll for the first time from Tesco supermarket when I had some visitor coming in the house for a party and since I don’t have much time left to do make a home made spring roll since I’ve been so busy cleaning the …
Bulgari marshmallow
I like marshmallow but not particularly so I never buy them but my sister likes them a lot and so we usually have them at home so in the lack of something sweet I eat them.
Bulgari marshmallows come in blue bag with a transparent part where you can see …
Oreo original, cookies
Here in Europe Oreo cookies are not as widespread as in USA. Most of us have not even seen an Oreo cookie until a few years ago when they finally arrived in our stores. But Oreo cookies are still not part of the regular cookies that you can easily find …
Grandma Rechek’s Homemade Stuffing
I had to run some errands before coming home last night so I told my wife I would just bring home dinner with me. After some thought about this, I ended up going to Rechek’s Food Pride here in Beaver Dam, WI and getting chicken from their deli.
Since …
Sweet And Sara Vegan Marshmallows
Being a Vegetarian or Vegan can be tough sometimes. There are always foods that you miss having. One of the foods that I’ve missed the most are marshmallows. Marshmallows have gelatin, and thus …are not Veggie friendly. To make things worst, it is darn near impossible to …
Dairy Queen Butterfinger Blizzard
I remember way back when our local Dairy Queen began to sell the Blizzards in candy flavors. There were just a few at that time, and it was quite the novelty. Now there are something like 25 different flavors of the Blizzard. My favorite is the …
Hamburger Helper Classic Stroganoff flavor
Hambruger Helper is a Betty Crocker product that is basically a “meal in a box”. All you have to do is add ground beef,and usually, water and milk. With the Classic Stroganoff flavor, you add water and milk to the pan after …
Bel Air Mega Sub
Bel Air’s deli has a bunch of different sandwiches to choose from, but their granddaddy has to be their Mega Sub. This thing is positively huge, and it is definitely far more than one person can eat, or at least, that’s my take on it. For it …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Ranch
Although I certainly do enjoy ranch dressing in my salads every now and then, I did not find the ranch flavor that is baked into these potato chips to be overly enjoyable or particularly tasty. Yes, the ranch flavor is most certainly zealously zesty and tremendously tangy, so one …
Clover Valley All Purpose Flour
While I like many products in the Clover Valley family, this one is simply horrible! There is something seriously wrong with this flour; although I can’t say exactly what it is the cause - perhaps because it is “bleached”? That does seem to be the main difference between this …
Kiki fruit toffee by Kras
When I was little I adored these candies. I remember my parents were always buying them to me because they weren’t expensive and you get quite a lot of candies in the bag, plus I liked them, but my parents didn’t. They were saying that these candies were sticking …
Brunswick Sardines in Louisiana Hot Sauce
Up until recently I had no idea that there was another flavour of Brunswick sardines, specifically the Brunswick Sardines in Louisiana Hot Sauce. I only found out about it when I was searching in the pantry for something to eat fop breakfast and I found it. I was very …
Labrada Nutrition Rock N Roll Caramel Peanut Bar
This nutrition protein bar is pretty tasty. It combines two things that I quite like: caramel and peanuts, so I guess it’s really no surprise that I took a liking to this bar the moment I tasted it. It helps that the bar is made with care and that …
Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice
Just over a week ago, my black lab became very ill. It scared me to death. Fortunately, she’s just about fully recovered now, and one of the reasons is Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice, original style.
No, it’s not some wonder food, but part of my dog’s problem was …
Great Value Imitation Vanilla Extract
Vanilla extract is something I always try to keep on hand. Although I don’t do much baking, I love to put a drop or two into my coffee to give it a little added flavor. I don’t like bland-tasting coffee, so I love to always have this …
McDonald’s: McWrap Beef
Every once in a while McDonald’s introduces new products to its line-up, and ever rarer, I find something of their menu attractive enough to try it out. McWraps, available in three different flavours, have been the advertised merchandise for a while now, and after some consideration, I finally ordered …
Egg Creations
I recently had a chance to review a new brand of liquid eggs called Egg Creations. I take assignments as a bzzagent to try new products and tell others the good or bad things I find about the product.
I was a little skeptical that liquid eggs could taste …
Meijer House Blend Instant Coffee
Many people who are serious coffee devotees shun instant coffee. And for the longest time, I understood why. However, when I purchased this store brand of instant coffee for the first time to use in a recipe, I wasn’t sure what else to do with it besides trying to …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers
I purchased Del Monte’s Fruit Chillers Freeze and Eat tubes and am so glad that I did because they taste just like those yummy freeze and eat popsicles that we ate as kids. You know, the ones that were 100% sugar? The great thing about these is …
Nova Multigrain Chips
Nova Multigrain Chips is another product of the Jack n Jill company. A very famous company that deals with snacks, chips and other household edible products. I have heard about this product and have tried it a few times, but I guess I just appreciated it recently due to …
Three Musketeers Candy Bar
My favorite kind of candy bar has to be the Three Musketeers bar. There really isn’t anything like it. Well, other than the Milky Way, which for some reason isn’t as good for me (though it’s still very good). If you like milk chocolate and haven’t …
Monterey Clean N’ Ready Fresh Sliced Mushrooms
After some consideration, I decided to pick up a frozen lasagna dinner from one of our local grocery stores for dinner a few nights ago (we had something else in mind, but we never got out of the house like we planned).
As part of the deal, I told my …
Ben and Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Cookie One Pint
My son purchased Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream and got a two for $5.00 special on it. He used the second purchase for my favorite flavor ice cream. Ben and Jerry’s version is a bit different than the traditional mint chocolate chip flavor so I wasn’t sure about it. …

Magnolia Pancake Plus
Breakfast is complete if you have pancakes for the kids. I also like having pancake for breakfast because it is a good choice instead of going for eating old-fashioned bread. I like wheat bread or oven fresh sliced white bread with cream jelly but nothing can top a freshly …
Choc Fudge Cookie
I am in love with this new Choc Fudge Cookie from Jenny Craig. They have a whole range of new foods this week at Jenny Craig weight Loss Centre and this cookie is my favourite. Who would have thought that losing weight was that easy with eating scrumptious Choc …

I am a big believer in the healing power of foods and thus I love trying all kinds of superfoods that promise to do all kinds of magic to your health/body/skin etc. One superfood I was particularly interested in is the Maca Powder.
First of all, let me quickly explain what …
Home Bakes
Has anyone tried the new dinner product called “Home Bakes”? They have many different varieties, although I usually purchase the Chicken Home Bakes, as my family and I eat alot of chicken. I really like the idea of these dinner kits as it makes dinner quicker and fun. The …
Banoffee Pie
Our Christmas holiday meals will not be complete without a special dessert on the table. My relatives will never forgive me if I just pick-up the usual cakes that are sold in commercial bakeshops such as Red Ribbon and Goldilocks. Our dessert has to be unique and extra delicious, …
