Hunts Natural Tomato Ketchup
I am an avid consumer of ketchup. I have ketchup with pretty much everything. I think it makes most foods taste extra delicious. I am always buying different brands of ketchup to try out whenever I’m at the grocery store. I saw this brand on sale one day and …
Diet Pepsi
I love Diet Pepsi. I think that I am addicted. The problem is they are not good for you. I don’t know if it is the carbonation, the taste or the caffeine.
The label says that there are 0 calories, …
Lunch Buddies Cinnamon Applesauce
I like adding applesauce to my lunch or dinner occasionally because it tastes good and it’s not what I consider to be a “heavy” side, like, for example, beans or even certain kinds of vegetables. Applesauce is light, yet it’s not light on flavor, and that’s what I enjoy …
Chubby Soft Drinks
“Chubby” was a Trinidadian soft drink product which came out in the nineteen nineties in Jamaica when I was about six or so years old. I guess the product was named Chubby because it was in a small stout plastic bottle, which at the time to me, made it …
Glaceau Smart Water
SmartWater is vapor distilled, nutrient enhanced water. The bottlers have added calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and potassium bicarbonite. One day I’ll google these ingredients to learn what they do for my body.
The water has a very crisp taste and doesn’t have to be chilled to …
Campbell’s Gardennay Autumn Carrot Soup
Campbell’s Gardennay Autumn Carrot Soup is absolutely wonderful!
It tastes like it is homemade or from a very nice restaurant.
It comes in a tetra pak and tastes so fresh it’s as if it was just made.
It has a rich flavour and is very nutritious.
It is a bit more expensive than …
Axelrod All Natural Sour Cream
I love to cook and bake whenever I get the time, especially when it comes to trying new recipes. I was never closely affiliated with using sour cream till I recently started looking up recipes on the internet.
Upon deciding to try a few sour cream recipes, I procrastinated buying …
Kraft Extra Virgin Olive Oil Pesto Parmesan Dressing
I have become so bored of store-bought salad dressing that I have been making my own dressings and vinaigrettes for a long time now; sometimes, if I am in a hurry, I quickly mix olive oil, extra virgin of course, and balsamic vinegar together and use that for a dressing. …
Knorr Frozen Entree
I received a coupon for a free to try Knorr Frozen Entree.
I’ve seen the commercials on t.v. where they ‘bleep’ out the word frozen as if it’s a swear word and I was interested to try this after being invited to participate in a campaign with bzzagent.com
These were a …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Salt & Vinegar
Now here is a potato chip that is really quite likely to make you outright winch more than just once or twice when you take a bite into it! Try and be as ready as you can possibly be to have your taste buds attacked and conquered because the …
Gran Matador Brandy
I don’t know if this brandy is also available outside the Philippines, but here in our country, it’s very popular and known by all men, drinkers or not. It’s cheap price made it another reason for them or should I say “us” to buy the product. It just costs …
Great Value Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soup
I use Great Value Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soup mostly for cooking, although it tastes good just as soup as well. Campbell’s is still my favorite though, there is a slight taste difference, and it is less lumpy. But when it comes to casseroles, chicken, and stroganoff, the Great …
Berni Pesto Al Basilico (Pesto Sauce)
I am a big fan of pesto sauce, that delicious Italian staple made with basil, garlic and butter. My husband makes the best homemade pesto ever, but it does take some time to prepare. At my favourite Italian market, I found a small jar of imported prepared pesto from …
Bigelow I Love Lemon & C Herb Tea
Sometimes I like adding a slice of lemon into my tea, and sometimes I don’t have any lemon around. That’s when Bigelow I Love Lemon & C Herb Tea comes in handy.
The tea has very pleasant, natural lemony taste. It comes in a box that has 20 tea bags …
Tastee’s Chicken Pastrami Sandwich Combo
Today I decided to wait until after all my classes ended so I could have lunch at the fast food restaurant Tastee’s. This is because I have found eating lunch there to be much less expensive than buying lunch at the university.
At first, I decided that I could buy …
Magic Hat Jinx
Magic Hats beer Jinx is my favorite of all the magic hats beers. The beer is seasonal, which means it isn’t available year round, a fat that makes me very upset when I go to purchase beer in the winter months. Jinx is a brown ale that is creamy …
Flat Earth Baked Veggie Chips Farmland Cheddar
If you are like me, your family enjoys a good snack but you do not want them to eat just any old junk. My husband and children love crackers and chips but most of them are not good for you at all. Even a lot …
Kielbasa Dog at Yakima Bears Ballgame
Recently I attended a Northwest League Short Season baseball game in Yakima, Washington. This league is the first stop for many professional baseball players and gives these young men a chance to learn while playing.
I don’t know about your town, but in Yakima they grow their Kielbasa BIG! For …
Banquet Frozen Dinner: Macaroni and Cheese Meal
Banquet Frozen Dinners are known for being inexpensive. You can buy them in almost any supermarket. I usually go shopping at Pathmark and they always have them there. They are the cheapest frozen dinner I can find in Pathmark. They usually cost only a dollar …
Pancake Bun Fillings
Whenever there’s a heavy rain and my stomach is hungry for a bit, I would opt to make Pancake Bun Fillings. This is a recipe that I have came up with and I would recommend for all to make during your hunger pangs.
Get some pancakes that are not yet …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - French Vanilla
Jell-o Instant Pudding - French Vanilla is most definitely one of my favorite pudding varieties! I really enjoy the flavor of vanilla, and this pudding most definitely has a terrific vanilla flavor! The fact that it is french vanilla only helps to make this an even tastier treat! The …
Selecta Coffee Almond Cookie Ice Cream
This is a newly released flavor from Selecta Ice Cream. As a chocolate person and a person who has sweet tooth, I love tasting different flavors of ice cream. Selecta recently re-launched “The Hersheys Collection”. Right after, there were several new flavors. One of those which captured me is Coffee …
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers turned out to be positively terrible! These were just about the worst ice cream sandwiches that I have ever tried. What made them so bad, exactly? Quite simply, the flavor was horrid! Whether it was the vanilla ice cream or the chocolate cookies that …
Cafe Georg’s Old Fashioned Banana Cake
A family friend brought us the Old Fashioned Banana Cake from Café Georg, which is a popular café in Cebu City, Philippines. The banana cake was actually a loaf which was already sliced evenly into slices that were just right; not too thin, not too thick. It …
Hershey’s Krackel
I have one major sweet tooth and although there are rarely any chocolate combination I don’t like, there are some which are top of my list favourites. One of these happen to be chocolate with crisp rice cereal throughout the bar or even just in the middle, like the …

Wal-Mart’s small fruit platter is a perfect option for a dessert, afternoon snack, or even for the morning’s to add with your breakfast. It’s small, which makes it perfect for an intimate meal with a loved one, or to share with a small group of friends, or even your …
Cheezels Chips
Cheezels are a snack that myself and my family have been enjoying for many years now. I’ve been eating these chips since I was very young and since then, Cheezels have thankfully kept their incredible taste and great flavour that we all love so much. They still …
Knorr Pasta Sides Cheddar Broccoli
Unlike with the Pasta Side that combines the mild Parmesan and Romano Alfredo sauce with the also mild flavor of broccoli, the cheddar and broccoli Pasta Side mix doesn’t go nearly as well together. To me, the cheddar flavored sauce is just too strong and does not go well …
PC Teensy Weensy Blueberry Muffins
These muffins are a hit with my kids. Both my one-year-old and my seven-year-old enjoy them, and I have to admit to sneaking some when they are not around.
I have tried other mini muffins from other stores, specifically the muffins from the Sobey’s supermarket, but they are hard and …
Birds Eye Voila Skillet Dinner
My wife and I discovered we really needed to do some major grocery shopping yesterday when we went searching for something for dinner and realized we really didn’t have anything worth eating.
As a result, we ended up running to the store in search of something that was delicious yet …
Kashi Trail Mix Chewy Granola Bar
I love the brand Kashi and their wholesome goodness they deliver without all the hassle. This why I decided to try their trail mix chewy granola bar. I’ve eaten some of their other different snack bars in the past and liked them pretty well. I figured that this Trail …
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 …
Lean Bean Weight Loss Coffee
I am a coffee person; there are just no two ways about it. If trapped on a deserted island, coffee would be in the top three things I would require. It wouldn’t matter if there wasn’t a coffee maker, or filter, for miles, somehow I’d go ALL …
Cowboy Billy’s Homestyle Baked Beans
We ended up making hotdogs for dinner last night and, to go with them, we made a can of Cowboy Billy’s Homestyle Baked Beans.
I have had this brand in the past but this is the first time I have tried this particular variety. It was OK, but it wasn’t …
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops are terrible. They simply are. To my taste buds, these mini muffin tops are almost totally tasteless and plus, because they are so small, eating one does nothing for me at all. I know that these are not intended to …
365 Organic Shells and White Cheddar Cheese
365 Organic Shells and White Cheddar Cheese is macaroni and cheese in a box and boy is it ever tasty! Also, being macaroni, it is not only tasty, but filling, too! What I like best about this macaroni and cheese is how the cheese sticks to the macaroni, like …
Kashi Granola Bars
Kashi Granola Bars are an excellent source of Fiber (4g) and Protein (5g). A box of 8 bars will set you back about $3.29 and they are available with the other granola and cereal bars at a grocery store near you.
The best thing about the Kashi Granola bars …
Magnum Double Caramel Ice Cream Bars
Product Description: Vanilla Ice Cream covered in caramel and milk chocolate on a stick. I found a box of 3 at Walgreen’s this past weekend for $3.50 a box and my wife and I had them for dessert last night.
What I liked about this product: Well, as far as …
Chick-fil-A Fudge Nut Brownie
The Fudge Nut Brownie dessert offered at Chick-fil-A is one that I have had on several occasions and I find it to be an enjoyable treat to have. What I like about this dessert item is the fact that the brownie always seems to be warm and moist and …
Coke Zero
Nowadays, all bottled drinks are loaded with calories, carbs, and sugar. But leave it to Coca-Cola to come up with Coke Zero. This new product is a great alternative to unhealthy soft drinks. It has zero calories. This is great if you are on a diet. I have …
General Foods International Chai Latte
International Foods Chai Latte naturally flavored instant chai tea latte mix is a pleasant surprise from the usual chai latte mix powders. It dissolves quickly and smoothly in hot water or milk and tastes sweet and creamy - not artificial. For an 8 oz. mug, the suggested 2 tablespoons …

Fancy Shredded Mild Cheddar Cheese
I use Great Value Fancy Shredded Mild Cheddar Cheese to add into salads and for cooking, mostly for hamburger pie (I am also known to throw a handful into my mouth when nobody’s looking - it tastes great and I love it). The finely shredded cheese comes in a …
Sainsbury’s Medium Cheddar Slices with Cracked Black Pepper
This medium cheddar cheese is particularly tasty as it has cracked black pepper strewn throughout it. What I like is that as I am eating it, I will bite one of the black pepper bits and some good heat hits my tastebuds. This was pretty economical cheese …
Nutrimalt
I love Malta drinks even though most people around me can’t get used to the taste. Usually I will go for Malta. It is the only brand that I consider “nice” - but that’s mainly because I had never tried other brands before.
Few days …
Oodles n Noodles
Oodles n Noodles are soups that come in a package. They are extremely cheap so if you are really low on money you could buy some of them. They are alright to eat, not the best but not sickening to eat either. I really like them occasionally. Let …
New York Style - Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips
New York Style - Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips make for a sweet snack to have in the afternoon. The combination of cinnamon and sugar is rich and does a great job of awakening my senses when I am feeling drowsy. I really like how there is a fine balance …
Krusteaz Bakery Style Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix
Krusteaz Bakery Style Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix is a cookie mix that I am really pretty pleased with. I have found that the chocolate chip cookies that originate from this mix come quite chewy and the flavor is really very scrumptious! The chocolate chunks literally are chunks and what …
