Orville Redenbacher’s Natural Popcorn

Keebler Fudge Shoppe Peanut Butter Sticks
I’m beginning to feel like my mother. I used to always get on her case because she’d go shopping and come home with the wrong thing, not intentionally but because she’d reach for one thing and end up pulling something else off the shelf. I guess it’s …
Betty Crocker Warm Delights
I love Betty Crocker Warm Delights. Each package is an individual dessert. Warm Delights come in their own plastic bowl. You just add the required amount of water, stir and top with drizzle or crumb topping. Microwave it for a minute or less, and you …
Bagel Bites Cheese Sausage and Pepperoni
I love bagel bites. They are not good for you at all, but oh how I love them. These are pure comfort food. I don’t even buy them for my kids because they are not good for you but I do love them so and we …
Becel Brand Margarine
Since the day my doctor advised me to keep my blood pressure under control, I stopped taking rich and fatty foods. I used to take a lot of butter with toast at breakfast time too.

Banquet Turkey Pot Pies
It used to be that, when I needed a quick and easy dinner, I could rely on Banquet Pot Pies. That’s no longer the case.
I haven’t bought pot pies in a while because the only kind I like are the Turkey and, because of some re-call, those were pulled …
New Morning Honey Grahams
These graham crackers are utterly terrible. They are made with organic grains (as differentiaed from being completely organic), and they are slightly sweet and graham cracker shaped with proper perforations, but they do not taste like graham crackers let alone very good.
One box 16oz box costs me $3.65 in …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones
Weight Watchers Smart Ones are very tasty and healthy meals. I’ve tried many of the ones they offer, and the lasagna florentine is my favorite. It has 290 calories and 9 grams of fat. That is very good for 1 meal. The lasagna florentine is …
Manruchan Instant Lunch Cheddar Cheese Flavor
This product is called instant lunch for a reason, it is quick. It is exactly the same thing as cup of noodles, but that name was taken by another company so they went with instant lunch I guess. I still think of this as cup of noodles though, …
Hamburger Helper Bacon Cheeseburger flavor
I usually make Hamburger Helper a few times a month for dinner and I really enjoy trying new flavors. The Bacon Cheeseburger flavor is one of my favorites. When I purchased this flavor, I was skeptical about whether I would actually be …
A1 Chicago Steakhouse Marinade

Tesco Value Peanut Butter
I am a fan of Peanut Butter and although it is usually the brand named one that I buy as I do think it is the best one, I like to try cheaper brands as I may end up really liking it and therefore it will end up saving …
TGI Fridays frozen honey barbecue wings
I didn�t get a chance to try any TGI Fridays frozen entrees until very recently; when I got a coupon for a free box of them. Since we were having Dominoes Pizza for dinner, I figured I would pick up a box of their honey barbecue wings to go …

Castleton Salisbury Stakes have long been my solution for a quick, tasty, and cheap homemade meal. I buy them at Aldi’s, they are less than $2 for a 2 lbs pack of 6 steaks plus gravy.
The steaks are very easy to cook. All you need to do is: 1) …
Burger King Onion Rings
Lately I’ve been shopping at Dollar Tree Stores here in Grants Pass Oregon. You see, like a lot of Americans I’ve lost my job so I’m trying to stretch what money I have by buying certain products as cheaply as I can.
While in my local Dollar Tree Store …
Nestle Rolo Cookies
These lovely big cookies, called Rolo Cookies from Nestle, were going cheap at Sainsbury’s and I just had to have them. They only cost me 50 pence, reduced from one pound and for that you get five big, thick, crumbly cookies. They are called Rolo Cookies because …

Recheks Food Pride Deli Chicken
A couple nights ago, my wife and I realized neither of us was in the mood to make dinner. So, on my way home, I stopped by Recheks Food Pride here in Beaver Dam, WI and picked up some roasted chicken from their deli.
While not as good as KFC …
Bob’s Red Mill Brown Rice Flour
When I first found out that I have a gluten intolerance, it was very difficult figuring out what to eat. It seemed like almost everything on the shelves at the grocery store were off limits for me. I eventually did find a few gluten free products that tasted alright, …
Hood Cottage Cheese with Pineapple Six Ounce Cup
I love cottage cheese and the one I usually get is the plain Cabot Cottage Cheese and I sliced up some chunks of pineapple and toss them into it for a little healthy hearty snack in between meals. However, I was in the grocery store the other day and …

Milka’s Cookies & Cream version of their Alpine Milk Chocolate is one of a couple of limited edition bars that have recently been on sale in a number of shops in the United Kingdom. They seem to be sold mostly in branches of the Poundland discount shop, although they …
C2 cold bottled tea

Jollibee, one of the most successful fast food chains in the Philippines today, offers its Jolly Hotdog Combo Meal, which consists of a regular drink, a Jolly Hotdog and regular French Fries. This combination meal is often what I buy whenever I get to eat in this fast food …
Quaker Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Ever since I started this new job that I’m working at right now, I’ve been eating very unhealthy, which I know is really bad especially since I’m always under a lot of stress. I’m constantly eating all sorts of junk food, which I realise can be addictive since even …
Mott’s Hot Spiced Cider Golden Delicious

Breyers Fat Free Ice Cream
Some time ago my doctor told me that I had high cholesterol. She recommended medication, exercise, and a diet low in fats. I have always been a big ice cream fan and hated to give it up, but most regular ice creams are high in fat. …

First things first I am a meat eater. I love beef cooked in as many ways as I can possibly get it. I eat meat everyday and have never even thought about eating a soy product. That was until a free coupon for Boca Meatless Breakfast Wraps showed up …
Vegemite By Kraft
Vegemite is a concentrated yeast extract which is used as spread for sandwiches, toast, crackers and whatever you would like to put it on. Vegemite is very Australian. Actually we don’t have this in Manila where I came from. When I got here in Sydney my …
Lance Cheese on Wheat Crackers
Ever since I was a small child I have always enjoyed Lance Cheese on Wheat crackers. The crackers are only sold packaged in packs of six; you can find them sometimes in vending machines. These are by far my favorite packaged cracker simply because of how different they are …
Kraft Cheezels Biskitz, Classic Cheese Flavor
I had asked my husband to get some snacks along with the grocery shopping for the week. I wasn’t going out as I had things to do at home. When I mentioned snacks I wasn’t thinking of biscuits. The kinds of tidbits I like are roasted …
Butterfinger Buzz Bar
On the Butterfinger Buzz Bar, it proclaims “crispety, crunchety, peanut-buttery bar with caffeine!” Aah, the C word caught my eye. So I bought it. It is a 2 piece Butterfinger Buzz bar, very large, probably more calories than the regular bar, that I don’t know.
I bit into …
Dippin Strips Pizza
The new Dippin Strips Pizza at Pizza Hut is great. I had one the other day and I loved it. The best thing about it is that great greasey flavor that only Pizza Hut can provide. I really think the idea and design of the strips is great. They …
Quiznos Meatball Sub
For lunch today I had a meatball sub from quiznos for lunch and I have to say I was pretty disappointed in the subs quality. I get meatball subs from Subway quite often and thought that one from quiznos would be just as good if not better. The Quiznos …
Verleo Catering
I recently attended a house party which got Verleo Catering to cater its food. The host was very excited about the food and we were all hyped up about it, as we had also heard some good reviews about Verleo. When we arrived, the tables and …
Welch’s Sparkling Grape Soda
Recently I did a review for Welch’s Strawberry Soda. I mentioned there that years ago there was a really delicious Strawberry Crush, that I rarely find now and I’m not even sure it’s still made. I had purchased the Welch’s to see how it compared. Honestly, …
Wilson’s Cherry Tomatoes
I like making salads to go with dinner but it’s hard to find quality tomatoes around here; unless you pay a fortune at the farmer’s market.
That’s why I was pleasantly surprised by the Wilson’s brand of Cherry Tomatoes I bought the other day.
My biggest problem with tomatoes is they …
Lipton Green Tea
Green tea is said to help people lose weight. I drink three to five cups of hot tea a day and have never seen this statement to be true. I am not sure how many cups you are supposed to drink but I would think if it worked I would …
Nescafe 3-in-1 Strong and Rich
I’ve been a coffee lover since I started working straight out of college. Since I’m not used to offices where the air cons are adjusted too low for me to tolerate, one of the things I do to warm myself up is by drinking mugs of coffee. We own …
Wendy’s Baconator
One of the best burgers I have ever tasted. What other burger have you ever eaten that has all this meat? It has two patties, and if you ask for more they will add more! It has stripes of bacon. Ham and beef, what a great combination with come …
La Cremeria Motta Nestle Stracciatella ice cream
All my friends and family know that I like sweet stuff a lot but they also know that I really adore ice cream, more than anything else. So for my birthday I got ’some’ ice cream. My favourite taste is stracciatella so I got one of those too. I …
Natural American Spirit cigarettes
Good or bad, I am a smoker that enjoys a good cigarette. For years, I smoked name-brands such as Marlboros and Camel products. Then one day, a friend passed me a cigarette I had never heard of. It was a “Natural American Spirit” non-filter. At first I thought it …
Conching: Rosquillos
Its been a long time since I ate a true “Pinoy” food; Luckily as I went through some biscuits at the “snack section” of the Mercury Drug Store, I found a Rosquillos Biscuits. This is a simple biscuit made from sugar, wheat flour, margarine, and eggs. I missed the …
Millville Apple Rounds
Millville Apple Rounds is an off-brand cereal that’s very similar to Kellogg’s Apple Jacks. Just like Apple Jacks, the Apple Rounds cereal consists of apple-flavored circles and cinnamon-flavored circles. Both cereals also match in terms of crunchiness. The Apple Rounds cereal is a crunchy cereal, just as Apple Jacks …
Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls
Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls are indeed sweet, but I just do not taste all that much cinnamon. I admittedly do taste a little, but apparently, the makers of these sweet rolls were very skimpy with the cinnamon. It is a real shame, too, because I think …
Cloverhill Bakery - Golden Pound Cake
The Cloverhill Bakery - Golden Pound Cake is nothing all that remarkable. I have had pound cakes from a number of companies and they all basically taste the same to me, which is no surprise since the ingredients seldom vary. As for this pound cake, well, it is certainly …
Sunraysia Pear juice
At first glance, it may seem that Sunraysia Pear Juice is a waste of money, and is extremely expensive. While it is quite expensive, at $3.00 Australian dollars for 250ml, you must not forget that quality is very important, and when you buy this drink, not only are you …
