Betty Crocker - Low Fat Brownies
Betty Crocker - Low Fat Brownies most definitely do not taste as good as the regular brownies, but I do applaud Betty Crocker for producing a low fat brownie that tastes halfway decent. Usually low fat products really suffer in flavor, but not this brownie. These brownies manage to …
Roundys Unpeeled Apricot Halves
I bought a few cans of these from Pick N Save this past December and I must say they are much better than I expected. They were on sale, so that was one of the reasons I picked them up. Perhaps I should have bought a few more of …
Chillin Fruit Water (Watermelon)
Years ago, when I was about in first or second form in high school, there was a fruit drink called “Chillin Fruit” that went on the market and became a little popular. They came in some small, cheap plastic bottles and I did not think that the drink itself …
Sam’s Cola
The first thing I like about Sam’s Cola is the price: only 58 cents for a two liter bottle, and sometimes even less, sometimes out local Walmart has it for 50 cents. It is also available in regular pop cans. The second thing I like is the taste, the …
Foster Farms Breast Fillets
In these troubled times, it’s hard to know who to trust to make sure our food is safe, but I’m counting on Foster Farms to deliver a quality product. I’m also the type that likes simplicity. I don’t want to make a lot of mess when I …
Caribou Coffee Peach Black Signature Iced Tea
I think the ripe fruity flavor of peaches is great when combined with rich black tea. I tried this tea at my local Caribou Coffee out of a desire to find out how well they would mix these flavors together.
I think really well-made, simple black tea is a wonderful …
Crush Orange Soda
I decided to try Crush Orange Soda one day after seeing a bottle of it on sale in Alberston for a $1.69. I’m not the biggest fan of orange soda, but every once and a while I give in when I have the taste for it. In this instance …
Nestea Vitao white tea with apricot
I was at one store the other day and I was rather thirsty so I decided to buy myself something to drink. I prefer buying bottles at the shop than going for a drink at a bar because in the bar you get much less to drink and you …
Sonoma Lights Cigarettes
I am not a heavy smoker, but I do smoke about a pack a day, sometimes more, sometimes less. Marlboro has always been my brand, specifically Marlboro Mediums, and I like them a lot, but over the years, cigarette prices have skyrocketed and I just refuse to pay $4 …
San Mig Coffee
San Mig Coffee has 4 flavors (Mild, Strong, Extra Strong and Original) offered to coffee lovers. Contrary to the more famous instant coffee choice, Nescafe is more aromatic than the San Mig Coffee. I believe what makes a coffee enticing is the smell it leaves around you, the smell …
New Orleans Chili Dark Chocolate
Wild Ophelia, New Orleans Chili Dark Chocolate, this chocolate bar is not to sweet but bold and bites back so to speak. My oldest son WS, loves this chocolate. He is a big fan of anything dark chocolate and anything spicy, so this would be his favorite chocolate bar. …
Blue Bunny Premium Banana Split Ice Cream
I could barely contain my excitement when I saw the container of Blue Bunny Premium Banana Split Ice Cream staring at me from behind the glass of the freezer case. I love Banana Splits, of course I can’t name one person who does not enjoy them thoroughly. I couldn’t …
Reggae Jammin Chicken Frankfurters
We ususally buy another brand of chicken frankfurters since the other brand is cheaper, but this month my father decided to buy the Reggae Jammin chicken frankfurters instead. I’m not even sure how much it costs either, but after hearing much praises from my father about how good the …
Nabisco Cheese Nips Four Cheese
This is one of my favorite flavored snacks of all-time. Nabisco Cheese Nips Four Cheese Flavored are delicious as a stand-alone snack or smeared with some cream cheese. Nabisco Cheese Nips Four Cheese is flavored with Cheddar, Parmesan, Romano and Mozzarella cheeses and is made with real Kraft Cheese. …

If you are in search of a tasty variety pack, then Entenmann’s 8 Variety Pack Donuts is something that you should look at the next time you are at the grocery store. In this variety pack comes chocolate donuts with yellow cake inside, plain donuts, cinnamon and glazed crumb …
Nescafe Coffee
I am a big coffee drinker and I find coffee to be quite a great substitute for alcohol, or the equivalent of alcohol for me, as I do not consume alcohol at all.
One thing I can confidently say though, is that coffee is addictive and I am living evidence …
Food Club Shells and Cheddar Dinner
I wanted macaroni and cheese last night but didn’t want one that had powdered cheese and didn’t want to spend a fortune on a more expensive brand name like Velveeta. So, I ended up buying Food Club Shells and Cheddar Dinner.
First of all, I’m not 100% sure why they …
Zero Impact
Agreeably, staying in great shape is not a walk in the park. That’s why I’m delighted when my mom brought home some protein bars that she recently bought.
I thought to myself that the protein bars would be good alternatives to my regular meals, which are normally rich in carbohydrates …
Hormel Compleats
Hormel Compleats are a delicious tasty portion controlled meal. Las month I purchased three different varieties; Meatloaf and Vegetables, Sliced Roast Beef with with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, and Sirloin Beef Tips with Potatoes and Gravy.
I was hesitant about the quality of premade meals at first, but thse …
Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice - some pulp
I have to say, after trying so many different brands of orange juices, this is definitely the best tasting, most natural brand and my go to brand. It seems to run a little but pricier than other brands of orange juice in the store, however there are often …
Kraft Peanut Butter with Chocolate
Picked this stuff up on sale, thought it might be an interesting treat to buy. And I spread it on a piece of bread, and ate it, and it had an interesting taste. I’m not sure I would say it was good, but it wasn’t bad either.
My …
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Sugar Free Syrup
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Sugar Free Syrup is a syrup that I tried once and I only tried once because at the time I was visiting with my uncle for breakfast and it was the only syrup that he had, so I tried just a little bit of it on the …
Vodka Vibe Blueberry
I am a social drinker, I like to drinks while hanging out with friends. One of my favorite drink is Vodka Vibe Blueberry that comes with a bottle measured for one person. The sweet taste is appropriate for my taste. And the taste is surprisingly refreshing. …
Marie Callender’s Country Fried Pork Chop
Like I mentioned before, my wife and I ended up picking up some frozen TV dinners at Walmart this past weekend. She chose the Marie Callender’s Country Fried Pork Chop.
It turned out to be an OK dinner for her but wasn’t overly impressive either.
Considering the money, there was plenty …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes
Admittedly, I was quite skeptical when I first purchased Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes. The reason for my skepticism is because generally, when I purchase low-calorie and reduced sugar foods, especially dessert or snack items, I end up being immensely disappointed in the flavor as there is usually very …
Bigelow Spiced Chai Tea
I enjoy hot tea from time to time and Bigelow Spiced Chai Tea is good. I prefer to make my own recipe from scratch, but when I’m working or on the fly, Bigelow’s Chai Tea fits the bill because it’s so easy to pop the tea bag into hot …
Pasta Roni Cheddar Macaroni
Perhaps one of the most disappointing of the macaroni and cheese box mixes that I have tried over the years, the Pasta Roni Cheddar Macaroni is a boxed mix that should be boxed up and shipped back to the factory it came from. There is actually not a thing …
Sonur Tea
Darjeeling Black Tea has always been know for it taste and quality and is no doubt one of the fines products sold around the world. People pay about a 3-4 $ just for 100g of the tea and is really quite an expensive product but it has plenty of …

Honey bunches of oats
Unlike any other cereal I have ever tasted. I really like honey bunches of oats cereal. It has just the right amount of different ingredient. Not too much of something and not too little of something. Everything goes well together in the cereal. The clusters and the flakes, everything …
Quaker Oat & Yogurt Strawberry Sandwich Biscuits
Quaker has always been that go to brand for as long as I could remember. They always have interesting products that appeal to all ages and people from all walks of life. In this case, when I was in the store, I noticed a product I hadn’t seen before. …

Magnolia Butterlicious Garlic Flavor Butter

Hamburger from McDonalds
The hamburger from McDonalds is one of my favorite snacks when I’m out and I get hungry. For example, if I’m walking to the grocery store I often stop in and get two hamburgers to go. Then I can eat them on the way to the store and they …
Metromint - Lemonmint Water
Metromint - Lemonmint Water is a delicious blend of lemon and mint flavored water. The flavored water is slightly tangy and most certainly refreshing. Mint and lemon work surprisingly well together and the resulting creation is pretty pleasant! Each sip of this flavored water excites my taste buds and …
Lacroix Lime Flavored Water
My wife recently purchased a 12-pack of LaCroix Lime Flavored water when she was out buying groceries. This was the first time I had seen water in an aluminum can and I haven’t enjoyed other flavored waters in the past. But, I am determined to try new things, especially …
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Hot
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Hot variety is, in fact hot! This is a cheese dip that does not go down easy - but I mean that in a good way! When I bite into a chip that has this cheese dip on it, the dip bites back and as …
Hershey’s Dark Chocolate
Dark Chocolates are really my favorite. I have tasted Nestlé’s dark chocolate and well it was my favorite dark chocolate because it was cheap too. The taste is not too sweet and not to thick in cocoa. Just recently though, I got a Hershey’s dark chocolate, a huge bar! …
Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs
A snowball is a snowball, and that, unfortunately, is the case with Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs. Do not let the unusual pink color of these snowballs catch your eye - there is nothing different about these snowballs from other snowballs sold in the grocery stores. The pink is nothing …
McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger Deluxe
I grew tired eating of the same thing in fast food chains. They all serve the same thing over and over Burgers, Chickens, Salads, Ice cream sundaes Kids never get tired of them, but as adults we do! And we do seek changes in at least the …
Munchies Traditional Mix
Munchies Traditional Mix is a pretty average, run of the mill type of mix that does not really do anything different or special to set it apart from the other snack mixes that can be found in grocery stores and supermarkets. It is actually a mix that is inferior …
Breakfast Best Scrambled Eggs, Hash Browns & Sausage
Breakfast Best Scrambled Eggs, Hash Browns & Sausage is a frozen breakfast combo that’s sold at ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and nineteen cents. For one dollar and nineteen cents, a generous amount of food comes in a package, I think. The eggs come already scrambled, but …
Nature Valley Peanut, Almond and Dark Chocolate Protein Chewy Bar

Sainsbury’s Basic Muesli Breakfast Cereal
I like to review these bargain-basement cheap products as some of them are quite passable even though you would expect it to taste disgusting at the price. I bought a big 1kg bag of muesli from the Sainsbury’s Basics range for about 30p. This will keep me …
Spaans Sugar Free Almond Crescents Cookies
Hooray! It is at last, the Christmas/Holiday season again, which means —˜tis the season for my favorite kinds of stuff to look at Christmas cookies and desserts! I can’t wait for this time of year and it’s finally here! If you’ve read my pieces from last year, you know …
Beer Chips
Beer Chips was such a cute little novelty that when I saw them on the store shelves, I knew I had to buy them. Maybe it’s just me, but the thought of chips flavored like beer was just something I couldn’t pass up. The chips themselves come in a …
Banquet Brown ‘N Serve Sausage Links
Banquet tends to be a brand I don’t like very much; it tends to be on the lower end of the quality scale, but for some reason I love the Banquet Brown ‘N Serve Sausage Links, especially the Original flavor. Now, I’m not sure, but for many years …
Classico Pasta Sauce, Tomato and Basil
This is a pretty flavorful pasta sauce. Unlike a lot of pasta sauces out there, this pasta sauce actually has chunks of tomato. There’s the typical tomato puree, but having actual slices of diced tomatoes in this pasta sauce really makes a difference! The diced tomatoes taste ripe and …
Lemon Basil
I just got the first flowers on my first Lemon Basil plant grown from seed. The scent is great, you can smell it when you water the plant, if you touch it, or if the wind catches it just right it makes the leaves rub together and releases the …
