Galaxy Cookie Crumble Milk Chocolate Bar
I love Galaxy milk chocolate generally speaking, so I knew I would not hate this variation called Galaxy Cookie Crumble, but I am not overly keen on it. I notice that Galaxy have branched out lately and brought out some variations on their standard milk chocolate bar so …
Trader Joe’s Kalamata Olive Hummus
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 …
Spice Islands - Cinnamon
Spices so often make or break a dish. Now, I’m not a big cook. My readers know that, but one of the spices I’ve grown up with and can use on almost anything is cinnamon. I just adore the taste. One of the most basic …
Nabisco Mini Nilla Wafers
As wafers go, mini Nillas rank up there. They’re right next to the regular-sized Nillas on the store shelf and probably offered as an alternative necessary to certain recipes. I wasn’t taken by the packaging: they featured Tony Stewart and Ryan Newman, two race car drivers, on the front, …
Stouffer’s Tuna Noodle Casserole
Stouffer’s Tuna Noodle Casserole is really quite enjoyable! There is a lot of flavor to be tasted here, ranging from the noodles to the tuna to the mushrooms and more! The peas, celery and oh so creamy sauce are fantastic, too! All of the ingredients in this casserole have …

Michelina’s Beef and Peppers Microwavable Meals
My first impression of TV like dinners that come in a microwavable box is that I really don’t want to eat them. I imagine chewy meats that are rubbery and full of nerves and bland cardboard spices that I wouldn’t enjoy. But when I came across Michelina’s Beef and …
Mountain Dew Kickstart Fruit Punch Beverage
I finally gave into the hype of Mountain Dew Kickstart beverage. At night while watching TV, I would often times see the goofy commercial about Mountain Dew Kickstart and then see the stands in grocery store with all the different flavors. The temptation proved to be too strong one …
Tesco Finest 2 Millionaires Belgian Chocolate & Caramel Tarts
These Millionaires Belgian Chocolate & Caramel Tarts are the most gorgeous Belgian chocolate and caramel tarts known to humanity, in my opinion. I thought they were delicious in every way and I have to admit that I have eaten both the tarts in the packet this evening. …
Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken Cool Wrap
The Spicy Chicken Cool Wrap is my favorite wrap served at the Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant. The reason it is my favorite is because of the three wraps, this one, I feel, offers the most flavor. Part of the reason it has such a good flavor is because the …
Ben&Jerry’s non-dairy vegan ice-cream
Vegan ice-cream is a big thing right now, as a lot of people choose to follow that cruelty-free lifestyle and a lot of people also have a lactose-intolerance or a milk allergy, so the market of dairy-free ice-cream is growing with every day. I’ve tried a lot of vegan ice-cream …

Betty Crocker Blueberry Muffin Mix
My sister knows I love to bake, the very reason why she sent me a few packets of Betty Crocker Blueberry Muffin Mix. Of course, it was one of those mixes (again) for the lazy - the instant ones. The instructions show that I only need 1/3 cup of …

Weight Watchers Smart Ones Double Fudge Cake
I am not a huge fan of Weight Watchers pre-packaged foods, but these Double Fudge Cake’s are the exception to the rule. Recently this frozen pre-packaged box of 2 individual cakes was on sale for $1.99CDN at my local grocery store so I bought them.
These cakes are delicious! They …

Morrisons Value Ginger Biscuits
I thought I would review these ginger biscuits from Morrisons Value range because I cannot tell any difference between these and the more upmarket, expensive brands and you get a long packet of loads of biscuits for only 31p! OK, they are packaged in Morrisons’ nasty bright yellow …
Tang Orange Juice
During the hot summer days here in the Philippines, I need to have an alternative refreshment drink other that soda so I decided to buy Tang orange juice. Tang has a lot of flavors like grape, mango and a lot more. I just chose Orange flavor because I really …

Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme Milk Shake
Because of a recommendation from a clerk at the grocery store, I decided to try out the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme Milk Shake product. Hershey’s individual milk shakes are the best ones I’ve found out there right now that you can buy at a store. No, they …

Hilo Value Hot Pepper Sauce
I never really had an interest in putting hot pepper sauce on my food because most of the brands that were bought before now were too hot for me, and I don’t usually like putting a lot of pepper on my food. Therefore, if I absolutely must, I would …

I like to put some fresh fruits and chocolate toppings on my ice cream so I asked my hubby if we could buy some strawberries. At that moment we were not able to buy a fresh strawberry but we were able to discover a bottle of Mapro Strawberry Crush which …
Krusteaz: Buttermilk Waffles
Krusteaz: Buttermilk Waffles are alright, although certainly nothing overly spectacular or memorable. They are basically square Eggo waffles really. In terms of taste, they are pretty much identical to the Eggo waffles. They work out to being about equal in size, too. I did enjoy them, but I did …

Purefoods Chinese Style Luncheon Meat is what we had partnered with rice in our dinner today. Well I think it will be more fun to have it paired with bread and not rice. Well I really like luncheon meats but I did not really enjoy this one. I have …
TGI Friday’s Pizza Chips
I can’t say that I found these chips all that tasty or enjoyable. These chips are supposed to have the flavor of cheese pizza baked into them, but I didn’t think of cheese pizza after trying some of these chips. Certainly, they do have a cheese flavor that’s not …
Sanka Decaf Coffee
I don’t think I can get this Sanka Decaf Coffee so easily. I drunk this decaf coffee long time ago. When I still lived in Jakarta,Indonesia few years ago, there were only few supermarket that sell this Sanka Decaf Product.

Nestle Cream D’Lite
When you are on a diet, you have to choose the food that you eat. But supposing you wanted a “Creama De Fruta” but then the ingredients are not fat free, diet becomes impossible. I always appreciate the various brands that have come up with less-fat formulas to help …

Whole Foods 365 Organic Everyday Value Pie Crust

Mc Donald’s Chicken Fillet Sandwich
I know that I ordered for a value meal at Mcdonald’s but I did not know that the chicken fillet sandwich value meal I ordered and paid php50.00 for was really so small. It seemed like a sandwich meant for a 4 year old kid stomach capacity. The chicken …
Korean Sushi
My mom today made some korean sushi - it’s shaped like a flat triangle, with various stuffings inside such as spicy tuna or chicken. This is a wonderful and easy snack to make. YOu can buy the “mold” for the triangle shaped riceball even and then put the stuffings …
Talenti Gelato Sicilian Pistachio

Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies
There really is not a whole lot of difference between these Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies and the Little Debbie fudge brownies or the cosmic brownies. Yes, these brownies do have green food coloring to simulate the color of a Christmas tree and yes, there are colored candies to …
Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
I’ve been hearing a lot about the health benefits of Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar so I was convinced to try using this product in my cooking instead of the ordinary clear vinegar we have in the market although this is of course comparatively much more expensive. I think …
New York Style - Panetini Garlic
New York Style - Panetini Garlic is a type of toasted bread sliced into small pieces that I will not be purchasing again. Unlike the three cheese and Parmesan garlic varieties, this variety is rather bland and unimpressive. The garlic flavoring is just too weak for my taste buds …
Splenda
When products are flavored with Splenda, I acutally do enjoy them. They generally do not have that infamous diet taste, but rather closely resemble products that are made with regular sugar. I have found that the benefit of Splenda is that it obtains far less calories, and …
