Rienzi Whole Wheat Pasta
I am a huge fan of whole wheat pasta. To some, it is an acquired taste where for me, it grew on me prety quickly. I have tried all different brands and though I love them all, they by no means taste the same. People think …
Cedarlane Spinach and Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales
While the Cedarlane Spinach and Monterey Jack Cheese Tamales are not exactly what I would call a meal in itself, they sure are tasty! The spinach used in these tamales is quite delicious! It is fresh and crisp and strong in taste, too! Plus, they did not go easy …
In n Out French Fries
In n Out French fries first caught my attention with its extra quantity being offered at no extra price than other fast food chains. But later on when I came to know more about their fries, I think In n Out French fries are very different in preparation and …
Cadbury Creamy Vanilla Ice Cream
I’ve always loved the Cadbury brand of chocolate, so when I noticed Cadbury also made ice cream I was curious to see whether or not it was as good as their chocolate products. The Cadbury Ice Cream was labelled as “Creamy Vanilla” which I thought sounded very …
Great Value Vegetable Beef Condensed Soup
This soup didn’t sit well with me. I’m sure it was due to the chunks of beef. They were kind of flavorless and not so tender, either. They required quite a lot of chewing and when I was chewing the meat, I wasn’t really enjoying it because the flavor …
Lindt (Lindor) chocolates
Lindt (aka Lindors) chocolates are premium irresistibly smooth Swiss chocolates.
Lindt chocolates are quite expensive, always around $5 or more for a 150g bag with about 10 or more in there. They are a big size, hard for a small mouth to fit. You might have to bite it in …
Eden Cheese (Melt Sarap)
I am very fond of cooking spaghetti and homemade pizza so my refrigerator should never be without various kinds of cheese. One weekend, I was planning to make homemade pizza for our Sunday afternoon snack so I went to the grocery store and bought all the necessary ingredients. …
Carmel Apple Coffee
I have recently tried Carmel Apple coffee from Cafe Brunches of Mansfield Ohio. I had a cup of the Carmel Apple blend and enjoyed its delicious and fragrant beans so much that I ordered a half a pound of whole coffee beans to go, for about four fifty …
Dog On It
Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …
Nescafe Cappuccino
After trying out Kopoki Kopiccino, Nescafe released their own instant version of Cappuccino. After green tea, I am always delighted to see varieties of coffees in the supermarket. I love tasting different flavors from mocha, caramel, cappuccino and chocolate latte. It is very exciting to have a different flavors …
Snyder’s Jalapeno Snack Chips
Recently I came across a new snack bag of chips while searching through a vending machine. They were a brand of chips I had never seen before, Snyder’s Jalapeno Chips, and since I am a fan of Jalapeno’s I thought I would give them a try. Now, I found …
Twistos Baked Snack Bites Asiago Flavor
For me, the easiest way to tell whether or not I really like a snack food is if I find myself easily going over the recommended serving portion listed on the packaging. With Twistos Baked Snack Bites, it’s hard to stop snacking on them once I start! From the …
Betty Crocker Scalloped Potatoes
I love Betty Crocker products so I recently bought her Scalloped Potatoes in Country Cut Cheddar to go with a meal I was making. Not being a big fan of freezes dried foods I was sceptical how these potatoes would turn out but I need not have worried.
These Betty …
Kellogg’s Crispix Cereal
Kellogg’s Crispix cereal used to be one of my favorite cereals. I don’t eat much cereal anymore. I am not really a breakfast person, like I used to be when I was younger. But Crispix has a lot going for it. It is very similar in style to the …
Oishi Berri Plunge Strawberry Flavored Flakes
The reason why I bought Oishi Berri Plunge is its packaging. It has a cute packaging; the color is pink with red lettering. The color looks appealing to me maybe because I am a girl. There is a picture of the flakes on the packaging; however, it does not …
Little Debbie Be My Valentine Iced Brownies
I did not find anything particular special about these Little Debbie Be My Valentine Iced Brownies. The only difference between these brownies and the regular brownies made by Little Debbie. The only differences that exist are the red food coloring that turn the chocolate fudge red and the white …
Maxwell House Half Caff Original Roast Coffee
I have already tried Maxwell House before as a coffee brand. That was the flavored variety. I always love flavored coffee during ordinary days but there that days when you really want a high doze of concentrated caffeinated coffee to perk you up. Sadly, when I tried this, I was …
Nesvita probone milk
Nesvita probone milk with calcilock is a product of Nestle. It is a low fat milk which offers many health benefits to consumers. I had a habit of comparing and checking first the labels and nutritional information before buying foods in the supermarket, because it is always a must …
CNI Ginseng Tea
Besides coffee that i love so much, i also sometimes drink tea. Especially if i went to a restaurant and i don’t have any kind of drinks in mind i usually order some tea (ice tea, sweet ice tea). But i rarely find a good tea that make me …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Chicken Red Pepper Alfredo
I purchased the Chicken Red Pepper Alfredo because it had a lot of things I liked. First of all, it had chicken, my favorite meat. The pasta choice, linguine, is my favorite pasta as well. Lastly, the vegetable combination of broccoli and roasted red pepper was …
Del Monte Very Cherry Mixed Fruit
Both my husband and I like canned fruit cocktails, and one of our favorite brands to buy is Del Monte Very Cherry Mixed Fruit. It contains grapes, pieces of peach, pear, and red cherry. The fruit pieces are in light syrup, also cherry flavored. The can is easy to …
Healthy Choice Creamy Basil Pesto Frozen Entree
Healthy Choice has come out with a new line of frozen entrees called All Natural Entrees. Since it was on sale at Wal-Mart, I bought enough to last me a couple of weeks, including Creamy Basil Pesto. I choose this entrée because I love the tomato-basil-mozzarella cheese …
Glory Foods Seasoned New Orleans Style Red Beans and Rice
Glory Foods Seasoned New Orleans Style Red Beans and Rice is a cheap and easy way to make a quick dinner. I first bought it on a whim because I am trying to learn how to cook for a vegetarian. The problem I have had is that cooking for …
Polos
I have probably bought more packets of Polos than any other mints because I like the way they are minty enough to freshen my breath and at the same time because they are sweet, they taste good. I also like the way the Polo mint has an iconic …
Jollibee Ice Cream Sundae in a Cone
As I have made a review of McDonald’s Ice cream sundae on a cone, I will also make a parallel review of the Jollibee’s similar sundae on a cone too.
Jollibee is a very popular franchise local in the Philippines. However, there is also a Jollibee in the US …
York Peppermint Pattie
My favorite candy of all time is the York Peppermint Pattie. You really can not go wrong with this candy. It is so tasty and is only 90 calories. I love the chocolate and mint flavor mixed. I love anything mint and chocolate but the York Peppermint Pattie is …
Nestle Vanilla Sandwiches
To be quite honest, I’m not sure how to review Nestle Vanilla Sandwiches, and here’s why. I’ve had what I’ve always called Nestle Ice Cream Sandwiches purchased from my grocery store in 6-pack boxes. I really wasn’t that fond of them. Now years before, there …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Cheesesticks
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Cheesesticks looked extremely appetizing on the box that they came in. They looked so good that I overlooked what I considered to be a somewhat unreasonable price for five cheesesticks. Two dollars and nineteen cents is cheaper than what other stores want for cheesesticks, although …
Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich
Now here is a simple yet scrumptious sandwich that I love to order at Chick-fil-A. The Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich is a very simple sandwich, yet the flavor it offers and its size are two factors that make this simple sandwich a winner in my eyes and stomach! This chicken …
Durabrand 2 Slice Toaster
A toaster is a pretty basic thing. Sure, lots of toasters out there come with all sorts of fancy doodads and probably do all sorts of incredible things, but when it boils right down to it, there is only thing you want your toaster to be able to …
Old Samuel Bourbon
What do you want from a drink? That is an alcoholic drink, of course. Let us assume that it has the punch you require. If it doesn’t, then there’s something wrong. After all, 40% proof must mean that it has a certain amount of oomph to lift you from the …
The Co operative Fairtrade Gold Roast Instant Coffee
I gave quite a bad review of the Co-operative’s Fairtrade Instant Coffee, but this is the ‘Gold Roast’ which implies a better quality instant coffee. This is a freeze dried coffee ‘for a smooth, rich flavour’ so I was hopeful it was going to be better. This …
International delight: Almond Joy Creamer
As a coffee drinker I like to use liquid creamer instead of the standard powdered version of it. For the simple fact that its blends better than the power does. Not only does it blend better but it at times sweetens the coffee, enhances the flavor or better yet …
Fudgee Barr
I always buy Fudgee Barr for my kids, specially for my daughter. She brings this to school as her snack during her breaktime almost everyday. She like this a lot and brings at least two different flavors.
Fudgee Barr comes in a pack of …
Bovril Concentrated Bouillon
I admit that this product is one of my secret weapons in my recipe arsenal.
I use this product (by Knorr, Unilever) in a lot of my cooking.
It’s excellent as a base for soups and it’s the main ingredient of my gravy.
I buy both the liquid and the powdered versions …
Sainsbury’s Basics Chocolate Dessert Mix
This chocolate dessert from Sainsbury’s ‘Basics’ range is supposed to be like a cheap version of Angel Delight and it is only 9 pence per sachet. I frequently buy a cheap version of Angel Delight from Tesco’s ‘Value’ range but as they do not do a chocolate flavour …
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.
I bought this Sanka Decaf Coffee product because I …
Teekanne Fruit kiss
I really like Teekanne teas because they all have very original and very nice flavor. Teekanne is a German brand of tea and it is not very easy to find it, only a few shops I know have this tea so I always buy more of them when I …
Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts to be pretty bland, although I really am having a hard time determining if these or the chocolate variety are more dull in taste. The coconut flavor is not all that spectacular and really, a little on the bland side. It is …
Sparkling Ice Orange Mango Sparkling Water
I am always on the lookout for flavorful zero calorie beverages that are not sodas so I can reduce my consumption of diet sodas. Therefore, I was excited when I spotted an assortment of Sparkling Ice brand sparkling water beverages at my local supermarket. I picked up several …
Little Debbie Snack Pie - Chocolate
I found these Little Debbie Snack Pie - Chocolate variety pies to be decent, although certainly not outstanding by any stretch of the means. This pie is pure chocolate on the inside and chocolate lovers are sure to go bananas over this pie, especially if they place this pie …
Millville Pumpkin Pancake & Waffle Mix
The Millville Pumpkin Pancake & Waffle Mix can be found at ALDI Food Market stores. One sixteen ounce box costs two dollars and seventy-nine cents a box. The pancake and waffle mix box is half the size of the pancake and waffle mixes sold in other grocery stores such …
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 …
Blue Bunny Champ! Caramel Lovers Ice Cream Cones
Blue Bunny Champ! Caramel Lovers Ice Cream Cones is a pretty sweet treat that will indeed appeal to caramel lovers, I believe. I myself am a caramel lover, and I do find this cone to be quite tasty! This cone consists of premium caramel ice cream with caramel drizzle …
Mrs. Freshley’s 100 Calorie Blueberry Muffins
There is not a great deal of flavor to be found inside these Mrs. Freshley’s 100 Calorie Blueberry Muffins. The blueberry flavor is not quite as rich as the non-one calorie muffins, and those did not even have a real rich blueberry flavor to begin with! While there is …
Colman’s of Norwich cottage pie recipe mix
I’ve just recently tried this recipe mix which I’ve bought from Tesco supermarket, the Colman’s of Norwich mix in making any sort of cottage pie, in my case I used it in mixing the vegetarian cottage pie that I’ve made at home. In fairness, the mixture did …
Cape Cod All-Natural Sea Salt and Vineger Chips
In my opinion I think that Cape Cod Potato Chips are some of the best chips on the market. They are pricey at almost $4 per bad at Walmart, but their flavor and texture are superb. My favorite of the Cape Cod chips are the Original and Sea Salt …
Yogurt Carnia with coffee
Lately I have been rarely buying flavoured yogurts, I mean, I buy those natural sour ones because I am trying to be on a diet but the other day I went in a shop and I saw Yogurt Carnia with coffee was on discount. I have never tasted this …
Golden Bantam Corn
Golden Bantam Corn is an heirloom variety of corn that you can save seed from year to year and get the same thing repeatedly. It cost $1.65 a pack for two ounces which contains approximately 230 seeds. When we were setting up our farm this year we decided we …
