I am a huge fan of San Mig’s 3-in-1 line of coffees. The 3-in-1 Coffee Mix comes in Mild, Original, Strong and Extra Strong blends. The four blends also come in sugar-free variances. So, it’s for everyone even for those who are quite conscious about their sugar diets. I’d …

I have a history of making lumpy gravies. I’ve tried sifting flour into it, adding little bits at a time etc and have not once succeeded in making a gravy that is lump free. Knowing how much I struggle with my gravies, my grandmother recommended trying Wondra …

Great Value: Hot Dog Buns, admittedly are not the largest or strongest hot dog buns that are available in the grocery store, but still, I find them to be a relatively good value. First, the complaints: the hot dog buns are on the small side. This means if you …

Little Debbie Nutty Bars make for a crunchy and tasty snack once and awhile. I like how the peanut butter has a good, authentic flavor to it and how well it tastes on top of the wafer bars. The combination is certainly a delightful one! I would like to …

I love Japanese food that the love translates to love of wasabi. But how does one react to wasabi in macademia nuts? Doesn’t it sound strange?
Strange or not, it is here, the Suncoast Gold Wasabi Macadamias made by the …

Nescafe Green Blend is a new instant coffee which has the benefit of high levels of naturally occurring polyphenol antioxidants. Regular coffee contains some antioxidants anyway. I knew that antioxidants were supposed to be good for you but, on looking it up, they are essentially vitamins and …

I usually buy Gallo salami, but I saw San Francisco Premium Italian Dry Salame on sale recently and decided to give it a try and see how I like it. I primarily use salami (or salame, however you want to spell it) in sandwiches of different kinds, from …

Alaska Evaporated Milk I should honestly say is the best tasting evaporated milk of all. All the other local brands are unable to match its excellent taste. Globalization has brought in a lot of other brands of evaporated milk from other countries but so far Alaska Evaporated milk remains …

I’ve always liked Green tea but never the one you have to prepare by yourself because that one always tastes really bad, it is very bitter and it really stinks, specially when it gets little bit cold. So now I don’t even buy those green tea bags, if I …

Stouffer’s Lasagna Bake with Meat Sauce is decent, although by no means fabulous. The pasta itself is fairly tender, although does not offer much else to the meal. The seasoned sauce spread over the ground beef does give the meal a certain flavor kick to it that I do …

Take 5 is a recent new candy bar from the makers of Hershey. It contains chocolate, peanuts, peanut butter, caramel and salty pretzel all wrapped up in a blanket of chocolate. My first reaction was it wouldn’t be good. Five different things all mixed in was a little overwhelming. …

I purchased Del Monte’s Fruit Chillers Freeze and Eat tubes and am so glad that I did because they taste just like those yummy freeze and eat popsicles that we ate as kids. You know, the ones that were 100% sugar? The great thing about these is …

The monster taco from Jack-n-the-box is like a bigger version of their regular taco. At least that’s what I would assume given that it costs the same amount as two of their regular tacos. When I was down south recently I had the chance to try a couple of …

What I liked about this product: One of the biggest reasons why I picked this particular brand is it gave me a few more cooking options than some of the others that were …

One of the last yogurts that I bought was the “Yoplait Original Boston Creme Pie Yogurt.” While I knew that the Yoplait brand has some interesting yogurt flavours, I actually did not know that their “Boston Creme Pie” flavour existed until I actually saw it in the supermarket. Therefore, …

The L’oven Fresh Caramel Shortbread and Almond Sugar Cookies come in a circular platter at ALDI Food Market stores for three dollars and ninety-nine cents. The platter consists of two “sections”. There’s the outer, circular ring which is where the caramel shortbread cookies sit and then there’s an inner …

Breyers Chocolate Crackle definitely appeals to me in this sense: it is an ice cream that sort of alternates between a smooth texture and a crunchy texture. I like an ice cream that does just that because contrasting textures is a quality that I like in an ice cream. …

I went to Tesco for something specific today with only a bit of cash and no cards, so when I had got what I wanted I had 50 pence left and wondered what sweet I could get for that price. I bought these six apple pies from Tesco’s …

There might be a lot of people that believe that the Tropicana brand is one of the most expensive juices in the world, but the truth is that it is worth its price in gold. One of the many reasons is that the new advertising gimmick is that …

As I mentioned in another review, we decided to make a big dinner last night with lots of side dishes because the pork ribs we made were a bit lean when it came to meat. Since we needed a vegetable everyone in our family would eat (and I was …

I’m old enough to remember when Pringles first came out on the market; or at least became popular enough where people actually heard of them.
And, throughout the years, the chips have made some interesting claims ranging from being whole chips because they are in a can and not in …

Cold and flu season is no laughing matter in this household because I already have a weak immune system do to my autoimmune disease so it is very important to take immune boosting herbs. One of the immune boosting herbs I take throughout the year in general and more …

As I already said Haldiram is a very good company which produces the delicious snacks, the Khara mix is a kind of crispy and tasty snack from the same company. The Khara mix is the mixture of some crispy snack which is mixed with spiced pea nuts. …

I decided to give this snack when seeing that it was from the brand I know for making the best cracker jacks. It was intriguing to me to see a snack mix in the flavor of buffalo ranch. For only $2.99 I grabbed a bag with trying it …

When I went to the USA for the first time which was years upon years ago. I had encountered a lot of new brands of ice cream. One of them was Breyer’s and even though it was pretty much more expensive than some other also popular brands I …

I really enjoy eating garlic toast, which is what first drew me to McCormick garlic powder. The garlic powder is already made into, well, a powder, which is easy to put on toast. In order to make garlic toast all I have to do is spread some butter on …

The Filet-O-Fish is a fish burger that’s been sold in McDonalds since 1962. It’s a great alternative for people like myself who don’t eat meat, and it’s been one of my favourite fast-food snacks for as long as I can remember.
The bun is nice and soft, and is …

I was introduced to Bush beans a few years back by my mother who absolutely loves Bush bean. I have been using them ever since. They are brand that you can not go wrong with when you are in a hurry for a meal or need something …

Great Value Mandarin Oranges are sold in a 15 oz metal can that needs to be open with a can-opener (no convenient ring-opener attached to the lid). Segments of mandarin oranges come in light syrup; they are medium sweet, not very different from the taste of a fresh, ripe …

I try to eat healthy. Whenever possible, I like to use fresh vegetables and fruits. Sometimes it’s just not convenient though, and so I rely on pre-made products. It takes a good bit of time to clean, wash, cut, and cook vegetables– then there’s all the dish washing afterward. …

Betty Crocker is a brand name that I know and trust, but they really dropped the ball with their Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes.
First, they are very high in sodium and they contain MSG (monosodium glutamate, which has been connected to migraine headaches and other health problems). …

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. …

Campbell’s is a trusted maker of soups and I have been eating their products since I was a child. As expected, they have also been adapting their products towards more healthy eating trends, which is why they now offer soups with lower calories and lower levels of sodium.

I love Pepsi Twist, what a splendid idea to add some lemon flavor to Pepsi! I used to make my own “twists” like that, adding a slice of lemon into my pop, so when I first saw a Pepsi Twist commercial I thought, “YEAH!! Just what I want!” I …

I love to cook and I don’t mind admitting I use a few shortcuts.
Here’s one of the best–one of the essentials, in my kitchen. Vigo Italian style breadcrumbs with romano cheese. This stuff saves me so much time and trouble, and makes my foods fantastic. There are so many …

Back in the day, it was Bon Bons that reigned supreme in the ice cream bites department. Today Bon Bons has competition from Dreyer’s (also known as Edy’s) Dibs. Dibs come in three different varieties at the moment as well as different sizes. The variety I …

Stouffer’s Grandma’s Chicken and Vegetable Rice Bake is okay, although I have had superior combinations in the past. The grilled chicken is quite good, although that did not surprise me since Stouffer’s typically makes pretty tasty grilled chicken. It had a good flavor to it and was tender, too. …

I have got into the healthy habit of drinking a small glass of Sunsweet Prune Juice every morning with my breakfast and I have noticed a difference to my digestive system. I have to admit that I do not like prunes at all and since trying them as …

Recently I’ve begun a new healthy living diet in my home. My kids tend to turn up their nose at most of the ideas i’ve come up with but i put my foot down and told em to get over it. Sounds tough right?
Really they wanted to get healthier …

I love cakes and pastries and I have a very sweet tooth. Our friends had visited our new house and they had brought lots of goodies along with them for us to eat while watching movies too. They bought lots of cakes and slices and I had to try …

I’ve always loved pork. Breakfast is one of my favorite meals because there’s pork sausage, pancakes and scrambled eggs to be eaten. That’s definitely one of my favorite meals.
The big problem is that I don’t like making breakfast. This takes time, which I don’t always have. If it’s …

Cedarlane Low Fat Garden Vegetable Enchiladas are great if you are looking for an alternative to the usual and somewhat unhealthy enchilada! Not only is this kind of enchilada loaded with nutritious vegetables, but it is also low in calories and fat, too, so there are two pluses right …

I saw a bag of Hershey Kisses on the shelf at Fry’s Food Store the other day. I was particularly drawn to it since I was not aware kisses came with caramel centers. Being that caramel is one of my favorites I was curious how the caramel would be …

I recently bought a box of Pillsbury Toaster Scrambles for our house, figuring they would be a quick breakfast that would hopefully be both filling and great tasting.

First of …

My wife realizes I’m not a big Jeff Gordon fan so, as a joke, she couldn’t resist buying me the energy drink named after him. After trying them, I’ll be willing to admit they aren’t half bad. But, you won’t see me looking for them at the grocery store …

I never go for plain flavors before but when I was left with no choice, I wanted the classic flavors of Selecta. Of all classic flavors, the least favorite of mine is vanilla because it feels too plain for me. I would prefer the old-time favorites like chocolate, strawberry or …

I am a chocolate lover and I don’t like anything better than chocolates with crisps in them. I am always on the lookout for these wonderful little treats called Crispy M&M’s but lately I have not been seeing them at all on the shelves.
These sweet little confections come in …
