Alpine Full Cream Evaporated Milk
Keeping an evaporated milk in my kitchen is very important for me. I’ll never know when I’m going to need it. But since I cook a lot, I’d like to have it available because I know some menus that need it. One of my favorites is soup. Whatever soup …
Sliced Smoked Nova Salmon
I guess one has to be accustomed to cold smoked fish in order to appreciate Sliced Smoked Nova Salmon. My husband obviously isn’t, he refused even to try it when I had purchased this small 3 oz pack. He took one look at it and said, “Blah, sushi.” I, …
Fresh Express Premium Romaine
I tried this bagged salad once and I liked it, but I didn’t like it enough to spend over two dollars on it again. This salad is a very crunchy one due to the lettuce being romaine. I like crunchy salads, so that’s good. I also liked that there …
FoxHorn Chardonnay
I wanted a glass of wine to relax on a Saturday afternoon, and decided to pick up a bottle of FoxHorn Chardonnay. Upon opening the bottle, I was surprised to find that I did not need a corkscrew (nice.) But after I poured myself a glass and …
Dannon Activia Blueberry Cheesecake Dessert Yogurt
I am a fan of Dannon Activia Yogurt, and I am mostly a fan of every flavor, and while I found the Blueberry Cheesecake dessert flavor to taste good, it disappointed me because it not taste like Blueberry Cheesecake. It tasted more like the original blueberry flavor that Dannon …
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 …
Tazo Passion Tea
The other day I purchased some Tazo tea and I thought that it would be worthy of a review. Now I’m a big tea snob, and won’t settle for just any kind of tea. I purchased Tazo’s Passion tea and I was expecting it to be like some other …
Sunkist Solar Fusion
I just tried the new Sunkist Solar Fusion and I am not a fan. This new Sunkist variety which is slightly darker in color, and sports a vibrant yellow, orange and blue swirled label is kinda awful.
I don’t know if you remember tasting liquid medicine …
Diet Coke Plus
After several print ads and enticing television commercials boasting a calorie free sparkling beverage with vitamins and minerals I came upon a deal to good to pass up. Free Diet Coke Plus with purchase of my old faithful diet coke.
The new formulation of Diet Coke, Diet Coke Plus is …
Cheetos Crunchy Snack
Lays chips and Ruffles chips are agreeable snacks when eating hot dogs, polish dogs, and hamburgers. However, they can quickly become disagreeable if eaten everyday. As someone who grew up eating barbeque, I know my chips, and I find Cheetos, the crunchy type, to be preferable substitutes to regular …
Morrisons Brioche Bread Loaf
I bought this Brioche Loaf without really knowing what Brioche bread was and when I got home and attempted to make cheese sandwiches out of it I really thought I had got it wrong! I did not think it went with the cheese at all and that the …
Mrs. Freshley’s Vanilla Cupcakes
I am definitely a person that enjoys vanilla desserts and treats, and Mrs. Freshley’s Vanilla Cupcakes is a treat that I do enjoy having every now and then. While not fabulously rich in delicious vanilla flavor, I do find the cupcakes to have a satisfying taste and I like …
Flavor-Aid Koolaid
I typically by Flavor-Aid Kool-Aid because it is a cheap affordable drink that my all kids like. Normally I purchase the 12 pack from Save-a-lot because it’s only 79 cents for the 12 packs compared to paying 10 cents each for them individually. That is a savings of 41 …
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 …
Lindt Milk and nuts small chocolate
When I was younger I adored chocolate with nuts but later I just stopped liking it. I don’t know why. Than about 2 months ago I rediscovered it. This my rediscovery didn’t happen with Lindt Milk and nuts chocolate but with some other one from another brand but once …
Sara Lee Strawberry Cheesecake Bites
Sara Lee Strawberry Cheesecake Bites are quite possibly the best tasting no-silverware-needed deserts available in supermarkets today. Small, square, bite-size chunks of delicious strawberry cheesecake, which actually tastes like the real thing, with a crumbly graham cracker crust combine to form a frozen cube of heaven. If you can …
Bigelow Lemon Ginger Herb Plus Probiotics Tea
I was having a lot of digestion problems such as constipation and vomiting after meals so I decide I was going to start drinking Bigelow Lemon Ginger Herb Plus Probiotics Tea and it seemed to help get my digestive system back on track again. I even find the tea …
Medeiros Extra Virgin Olive Oil
I live within walking distance from a Save-A-Lot grocery store, so when I came home one night to cook and realized I was out of olive oil, I went to the nearest store to pick some up. I wasn’t expecting a very high quality olive oil at this store, …
Lindt Excellence Mint Intense
My addiction with dark chocolates started after I read an article that dark chocolates are healthy. I also heard the same statement from a famous dermatologist here in my country. So because I have a sweet tooth, I shifted my cravings for chocolates to dark chocolates. Among the health …
Variegated Lemon Thyme
I bought one of these plants from a garden center a while back to mix in with my other herbs in the garden. It’s done wonderfully so far in zone 9a, in full sun with average full watering each day. It has very small leaves as does most Thyme, …
Ritz Bits Cheese
I love having cheesy snacks sometimes and that is why I like buying Ritz Bits Cheese whenever I crave them. Ritz Bits Cheese are bite sized Ritz Bits crackers with cheddar cheese in between two of these crackers to form a sandwich.
What I like mostly about Ritz Bits …
Nabisco Double Stuf Oreo Cookies
Okay, so what happened to the double stuf in the double stuf Oreos? I remember when you purchased Nabisco Double Stuf Oreo Cookies and there really was a double layer of the creamy white filling. I don’t feel that way anymore. I was dang surprised, in …
Papa Johns pizza
I love pizza. I could live off of it, and I doubt I would ever mind. I’ve eaten pizza from everywhere. If i go somewhere and there’s a new pizza place I haven’t seen before, I am definitely stopping by. After all my taste tests, …
Wasabi KitKat
I recently tried the Wasabi KitKat which was a present to me from Japan. It came in a green and white box with Japanese characters and pictures of the wasabi plant and the light green KitKat. I like the packaging a lot because it looks very Japanese …
Grouse Scotch Whisky
The world’s drinks market is flooded out by a huge range of drinks, both soft and alcoholic. The European market alone must account for a sizeable percentage of that, as Italy is the largest producer of wine in the world (to the surprise of many) and the French cannot …
Trebor Soft Mints
I adore Trebor Soft Mints, although I did break a tooth on one of them! I just eat them more carefully nowadays! I find these mints to be incredibly moreish and I usually tend to binge on them, eating one after the other until they are gone. …
Skyflakes Crackers Cheese Flavor
Skyflakes crackers have been to replace breakfast and a good snack food. It is a typical food of people that are always busy, always rushing or always on the go. Even while I was a student before I keep this crackers in my bag so that when I …
American Choice Flavored Water
The American Choice Flavored water is something that I usually buy at my local Wal Mart when I do my shopping. The reason so is because it is something that is usually on sale and I can usually buy a bunch of them at a low price. What …
Rockstar Punched Energy Drink
This drink blows all other energy drinks away!
I’ve been keeping up with the energy drink market since Jolt was the only popular beverage that had extra caffeine. Things have definitely come a long way, pretty much to the point where every thing’s starting to taste the same. …
Cheesy smothered Charbroiled Patty Meal by Banquet (frozen dinner)
The Cheesy smothered Charbroiled Patty Meal by Banquet looks rather gross on the box. Usualy the picture on the box is better than the actually meal but this is opposite. I kept over looking it when I would go to by my frozen dinners just because the picture on …
Cooper’s Toasted Beef Ravioli
Tasteless is the word that I think best describes Cooper’s Toasted Beef Ravioli. The raviolis are quite generously packed with beef, but the problem is not with the quantity, but the quality. The quality of the beef isn’t all that hot. The beef is pretty much devoid of flavor …
Harvey Fresh UHT Long Life Lactose Free Milk
I love to eat cereals as my breakfast, but unfortunately, since I am asian, I do have lactose-intolerance. Eating dairy products, like even the simplest ice cream will definitely send me to the comfort room because I would often have cramps and suffer from diarrhea. I do indulge from …
Up Cafe Vanilla & mint Coffee
I got this instant coffee from a friend of mine who works in CNI, one of the famous multi level marketing in Indonesia. First time i saw it, i think it just another kind of boring vanilla coffee, the one with vanilla strange odor and plain taste coffee. But …
Deli Pride Cheeseburger
I ended up buying this 99 cent Deli Pride Cheeseburger the last time I went to Save-a-Lot. I figured, at very least, it would be a filling meal.
I have to say, it was one of the grossest lunches I have ever had.
First of all, the whole thing was soggy. …
Roasted Garlic and Shrimp Pizza
Roasted Garlic and Shrimp, a new flavor of pizza we tried at Yellow Cab this day. Well of course it is Sunday and it is a special pizza or restaurant day. My family and I have finally tried eating more healthy food, slowly eating more veggies, and seafood than …
Kiki cream peanut butter
I really like peanut butter but unfortunately in my country it is not very easy to find it ad if you manage to find it it usually costs a lot so sometimes I rarelly afford it. The other day I saw in a shop where I usually go a …
Wrigleys Extra Spearmint Gum
I have always had a hard time finding a gum that was long lasting enough and had a great flavor. I always knew about Extra but I had never really been drawn to it before because of all the new gums constantly coming out on the market claiming to …
Onion and Garlic Chips from Wise
When I think of a movie night, or party snack food, I immediately think of potato chips. There are so many types of chips out there that at times it can seem as though it is difficult to find the flavor that is just right for your snacking junk …
Kirkland Signature Bottle Water
I love Kirkland Signature bottled water from Costco. However, you do have to buy an annual membership to Costco to get it.
Living in Las Vegas in 112-degree summers, you drink a lot of liquids. I will drink 1-2 cases of bottled water a week, most …
Crosse & Blackwell Macaroni Cheese Pasta & Sauce
I think this macaroni cheese from Crosse & Blackwell is really tasty considering it is just a dried pasta and sauce mix in a sachet. It is really easy to make and can even be cooked in the microwave, as I have done. It was also really …
Dove Peanut Butter chocolate bars
I’m a big chocolate lover and one of my favorite chocolates are by Dove. I also enjoy peanut butter candies but it’s often a hit or miss with me because I find many peanut butter chocolate candies to be either too sweet or too salty. There’s rarely been one …
Yuban Premium Coffee Dark Roast
I am a coffee lover, or I should say fanatic, and cannot live without the stuff. My preferred brands are Folgers and Yuban, but sometimes I will buy the bargain brand if I’m low on money. On a recent shopping trip, I thought I had found a really great …
Multi Grain cheerios
The other day I was at my friends house and I spent the night so when morning came around I was pretty hungry for breakfast. There wasn’t really anything good to eat. I didn’t want any pop tarts that were high in sugar and there wasn’t much good …
Little Debbie Cherry Cordials - Valentine’s Day
These came with a special Valentine’s Day basket that I purchased, and boy am I glad that they did! If I would have actually purchased these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials - Valentine’s Day variety, I would have felt totally ripped off! These cookies are the exact same as the …
Reno Liver Spread
I’ve been preparing snacks for my two kids everyday and I’m already running out of spreads I could use for their sandwiches. I’ve already tried cheese spreads, sandwich spreads, hams, fruit jams, eggs, and a lot more when I discovered this Reno Liver Spread. I actually …
Taurus Cider
Sold exclusively in ALDI stores, this dry cider is a surprisingly pleasant alternative to more expensive brand name competitors out on the market.
Similar in taste to most of the more well known dry ciders such as Strongbow, this particular brand is certainly refreshing enough with a decent flavour, …
Fit & Active Turkey & Broccoli Stuffed Sandwich
This frozen sandwich only impressed me moderately. The thing that I like the most about this sandwich is the turkey. The pieces of turkey were tender and flavorful. There was quite a bit of chopped up turkey, too. Sitting with the slices of turkey were pieces of broccoli. I …
Bob’s Red Mill Nutritional Yeast
I’m crazy when it comes to trying out new, weird and unknown foods (though they have to be vegan). I literally spend about 1/4 of my income on Iherb, which is a great website to buy health foods and natural skincare from. I rarely like any of the advertised superfoods, …
