Sargento - Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese
Sargento Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese is my favorite kind of Swiss cheese, and really, my favorite kind of cheese period. The reason I prefer the aged Swiss over the regular Swiss is because I like the sharper flavor that the aged Swiss has to offer. It really …
Coke Zero No Sugar
I made a promise to myself to cut down my intake of carbonated drinks and make it a habit instead of drinking more water. But sometimes it is really very tempting specially after a heavy meal or during a tired day or when you have to fight the urge …
Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars
Truly, these delicious ice cream bars do not taste diet in any way. Many of the light ice cream bars I’ve tried before have an icy texture that makes it obvious that they ice cream bars have more ice and less cream. But these Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars …
Diet Barq’s Root Beer
Barq’s hast bite. So goes the slogan for Barq’s root beer and one that is quite true. It has a much more pungent flavor than the other root beers on the market (such as A&W or Hires). Diet Barq’s tries to keep the bite even in …
Banquet TV Dinners
The makers of Banquet TV Dinners have done something amazing and I thank them for it. They’ve made great tasting, filling meals that are easy to prepare and affordable. I have seven grocery stores in my immediate area, including… Martins, Food Lion, Wal Mart, etc. And every one of …
Trident Passionberry Twist Sugar-Free Gum
I love Trident sugar-free gums, and they have a lot of flavours in which you’d never be able to get enough of the taste and their gums are really healthy and has much less calories than your average gum. A pack of gum has 18 sticks and this gum …
Justin’s mini Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
I’m a huge peanut butter fan and everything peanut butter flavoured immediately goes into my cart. I really love Reese’s peanut butter cups, however, I’ve been hearing a lot about Justin’s Dark Chocolate peanut butter cups lately, which are also organic, lower in sugar and vegan. I haven’t seen them …
Boca Ground Crumbles
Even though I’ve been a vegetarian for most of my adult life, I still miss some of my favorite childhood dishes made with meat. I regularly purchase veggie burgers and chick patties, and though I’m satisfied with the taste of these substitutes, they have a unique flavor that …
Stouffer’s Corn Soufflé
Stouffer’s Corn Soufflé is not something that is going to appeal to a lot of people, I do not think. Even to people, like me, that have had this before, albeit not from Stouffer’s, might not enjoy this that much. I did not particularly care for this corn soufflé …
Trader Joe’s Organic Lentil Vegetable Soup
Lentil soup can be a comforting and delicious kind of soup. If it’s made right, it can be delectable. I usually love lentil soup, so when I found this canned soup at Trader Joe’s, I decided to try it. Trader Joe’s has a reputation for making good and wholesome …
Michelina’s Chili-Mac frozen dinner
This frozen dinner didn’t do much to impress me. I think what ruined this frozen dinner in my eyes is the weak tomato sauce. There was unfortunately nothing special about it. It was just there. It didn’t contribute much in terms of flavor and so it didn’t enhance the …
Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal
One of my favorite cereals growing up was Captain Crunch. Somehow the sweet, yellow pillows of corn goodness satisfied my cravings for sugar, even though it was abrasive to the roof of my mouth. I could not stop stuffing my mouth with this cereal. However, the …
Goya Jack Mackerel in Brine
Recently I got the craving to make my grandmother’s old world fishburger recipe, which calls for a can of jack mackerel. However, after looking on the shelves of the two nearest supermarkets for the usual brand I buy, Chicken of the Sea, I couldn’t find any. The spot on …
Dollar Tree Bakery Fresh Oatmeal Cookies
While these cookies are relatively tasty, I’m not really that wild about them. Oatmeal cookies are not my favorite kind of cookie, and so I don’t snack on oatmeal cookies as often as say peanut butter or chocolate, but there are times when I’ll be ready for something a …
Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows
I had never heard of the “Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows” until my brother got one of them for me after work as a treat. A single small pretty and white marshmallow with some brown swirls on it came in a small transparent bag, and I do not think that …
Mrs. Field’s Cookies
I was rather surprised to find that Mrs. Field’s cookie shop in my local mall, wanted four dollars for five cookies! Now, I could perhaps understand this price if the cookies were cake-sized, but rather, they are more morsel-like in size. So, while their marketing ploy to …
Francisco Round Sourdough Bread
Francisco Breads are another tasty option for great breads. It’s a product my family has enjoyed for a number of years. Like one of its biggest competitors, Colombo, it’s never let us down. It’s been fresh, delicious, and great tasting every single time.
What is unique about …

V8 V-Fusion Strawberry Banana Smoothie
I personally love smoothies. The idea of blending different fruits and vegetables is just awesome. Not only am I getting all of my nutrition in one cup, I get to experiment in the kitchen. I usually go for smoothies for health reasons more so than just for cravings. Sometimes …

Product description: Bag of red potatoes from the brand Potato Goodness out of Antigo, WI. The 5-pound bag cost us around $3.
What I liked about this product: It’s probably because I live in the same state but I’ve found most bags of potatoes from Wisconsin companies seem to be …

The Betty Crocker super moist strawberry cake mix color is more pink than the red color …
Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup is my personal favorite of all the variety of Campbell soups. I like it as soup, and usually only use it as such. For cooking other dishes, like stroganoff or tuna casserole, I use the Great Value brand, which is just as good …

Tostitos Salsa Con Queso Medium
Tostitos Salsa Con Queso Medium is a dipping sauce that goes great with tortilla chips. I like this dipping sauce quite a bit because it’s more than a Monterey Jack cheese dipping sauce. It’s got other ingredients mixed in there that give the dipping sauce extra flavor and a …
Farm Rich Pizza Sticks
While I most definitely love pizza, I most definitely do not love these pizza sticks from Farm Rich. I did not find the flavor of these sticks to be too pleasant, whether it was in regards to the cheese or the pepperoni. I felt that the cheese was weak …

I often eat cereal for breakfast, and have been trying to eat more healthy cereals. I am now on my third box of Oatmeal Crisp Triple Berry, which I like because it is crunchy and flavourful.
I like the bits of dried berry, although I do find the strawberry pieces …
Totino’s Classic Pepperoni Pizza
I absolutely love to eat pizza but I don’t always agree with the cost of delivery or frozen pizzas. I picked up a little inexpensive pizza called Totino’s classic pepperoni pizza. It was a frozen pizza and needed to be baked. I looked at the instructions and noticed that …
Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
For me, Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake is a real seasonal treat! While I’m not a fan of every single Jell-o product on the shelf, as I’ve found the line of products to be hit or miss at times, wondering how the flavor on the packaging could be …
Tim Horton’s Hot Chocolate Mix
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 …

Aia Wudy Hot dog

Sainsbury’s Basics Creamed Tomato Soup
When I am low on cash before pay day, I do like trying out the really cheap own brand produce of supermarkets, such as Sainsbury’s. The prices can be ridiculous, like this Creamed Tomato Soup from the Sainsbury’s Basics range, which is only 17 pence. But I …

Kirkland Signature Bottled Water
