I love Chai teas a friend got me hooked several years ago. A Chai Creme is one of the few things I use as a reward for myself every so often. I prefer them from Starbucks, but I have found Kroger’s carries a brand that is pretty …

I am from a tropical place and have always loved tropical fruits. But considering that you get less tropical fruits in Northern US, its hard to find the fresh taste. When i was shopping for oils in Whole foods, then i saw this raw , virgin, unrefined coconut oil …

Creamfields Sunflower Light Spread is not only cheap, but it is low in fat and calories and it also tastes pretty good considering it is not real butter. I would always prefer to have real butter for certain things, such as melted on a baked potato, but I …

One of …

My wife decided she wanted to make spaghetti last night and, because we didn’t have half the ingredients we needed, I found myself running up to Walgreens shortly after getting home from work.
While there, I thought an appetizer would be a smart buy (I was starving at the time) …

I first had slim jims on a camping trip. What they are are essentially beef jerkey in a tube like form rather than little pieces of meat like traditional jerkey. They are extreamly thin, however also rather filling as a snack when your on the go.
These are particuarly …

I find Entenmann’s Glazed Pop’ems to be a tasty treat to enjoy, although I do not like them quite as much as the chocolate glazed pop-ems because the flavor is not quite as good. These are a little on the bland side since there is no chocolate flavor, and …

Most of my home cooked dishes include tomatoes and so I bought a lot of Kissan Tomato Puree for a stock. From Chicken Mechado recipe to simple tomato soup I really use Kissan Tomato Puree in tetra pack size because it is so economical.

I have not tried Hereford Corned beef before. I was very impressed, satisfied and addicted with Hamper. I have tried Hereford sausage and it was very delicious but with its corned beef, I never had the chance to eat it. We have several boxes that arrived from Los Angeles and …

I can’t say that I found these chips all that tasty or enjoyable. These chips are supposed to have the flavor of cheese pizza baked into them, but I didn’t think of cheese pizza after trying some of these chips. Certainly, they do have a cheese flavor that’s not …

I had tasted the other dark mocha frappucinos such as dark cherry mocha but this is better than the dark cherry mocha. It tastes just like pure dark chocolate with mocha and the iced frappucino just lingers in your throat and it’s such a thick, rich, and creamy drink …

I am a HUGE fan of Wing Zone because not only do they offer the best of chicken, but they also allow you to decide on the flavor/sauce you chicken will be drenched in. I’m a barbeque person, therefore, I am always ordering barbeque chicken wings; however, when I …

Pizza Hut’s pizza is usually tops in my book. Their pizza is the best you can get and you can find great specials going on at times. However, the new item, Cheezy Bites Pizza wasn’t anything to write home about.
It’s designed to be breadsticks and pizza in one, thus …

My husband and I have recently been trying to include more vegetables into our daily diet. We have come to the sudden and harsh reality that we are now close to thirty years old, and no longer have the bodies that we did as teenagers. Yes, we …

Sunshine Snacks is a popular local brand for snack foods and one of their products is Corn Chips. This snack comes in a very light .28g package. This is not surprising since the chips themselves are pretty light but also very crispy. Since it is so small it is …

I bought this oatmeal in a dollar store. After all, it was just oatmeal, right? I mean, how bad can instant oatmeal be?
Well, I found out. Oatmeal can be very, very bad. It can taste pretty much like paste. Like very bad paste. Mind you, I never was …

I decided to order a pizza Friday night and, because garlic bread from Pizza Hut is a bit too much, I decided to just pick some up from the store instead.
While at the store, I saw a box of Our Family Garlic Dinner Rolls. I figured it was something …

Blue Bunny Chocolate Ice Cream Sundae Crunch Bar is a decent frozen treat that could have been better, but is unfortunately held back by a few problems, in my opinion. First of all, the vanilla ice cream used in this treat is not all that rich or noticeable. It …

Feeling a little thirsty while waiting for my husband, I stepped into a 24-hour convenience store to get a drink. It’s funny that there are no tetra pack drinks available there. I checked the refrigerators twice over just to make sure.
I knew that getting a normal-sized canned drink of …

When it comes to long lasting snacks, and by that I mean a company that has been around for what is a personal ‘forever’, Tootsie Roll is right there. It was a standard candy throughout my childhood, it was a snack as a teenager, it was a treat …

I’ve previously done a review for the Deli-Creations regular sandwiches, which are delicious and wonderful. About the time I was writing it, Oscar Mayer had just come out with another type of their Deli-Creations — flatbreads.
The premise is the same — you have everything you need for a …

I like Magnolia as a brand. As a kid I loved their fresh milk, fruit juices and ice cream. I recently purchased a box of Cheezee Magnolia cheese. It’s not my usual brand for cheese but I expected it to be just as good, maybe even better. But boy …

Most Asians love to eat Sliced Fish Noodle Soup. Including myself. I love the noodles especially, instead of eating this Sliced Fish Soup with the replacement of rice.
And for the noodle option, I love the yellow ‘E-Mee’ or just a normal yellowish noodle-type. Really delicious …

The Coconut Almond Patties from Florida’s Finest Chocolates are delicious, creamy, and easily found at Bells (a department store in Florida) for a much cheaper price then are sold in airports or souvenir shops. The price of these chocolates are roughly around four to five dollars, and that is …

I like chocolate chips cookies, sometimes I make them myself but then I usually make a bunch of them and that means putting some weight on. So although it is much cheaper to make them than to buy them I started buying them. For 1E I can make at …

I had never used tomato paste until I started cooking a few years back and ran across a recipe for pizza which called for tomato paste as an ingredient in the sauce. I went to the grocery store and was faced with a wide selection which comes in bottles …

Somewhere somebody in a board room meeting announced “I’ve got a great idea! Let’s combine yogurt and caramel!” This somebody is probably now among the 10% who are unemployed in the United States. As this yogurt seemed to be different, we decided to give it a try. …

After having tried many other energy drinks that never provided any help, I decided to give 5 Hour Energy a try. I’d seen the many commercials advertising this great energy drink that has no sugar and no crash afterwards. I bought it at my local drug store during work …

The Hid and seek choco biscuits are something really special, because of it taste and small size choco chips hidden inside. As soon as we put a Hide and seek choco biscuit in our mouth it just melts and the hidden choco chips give the wonderful taste of …

I never used Fleischmann’s rapid rise instant yeast until I purchased a bread kit that contained it, and even then I was nervous to handle the yeast. In the kitchen, yeast is my kryptonite because I never actually learned how to properly use it. I know you are to use …

If you love mixing up your spaghetti with different add-ons, consider roasted crabs. It is a good option, and quite nutritious, I must say. Crabs are a real good alternative rather than just meat, chicken and fish.
If you go anywhere like in restaurants and stuff, it’s …

I like cheesecake. It has always been a creamy sweet dessert that I can really enjoy. The only problem is that I personally don’t know how to make cheesecake. Also, I don’t like buying ready made cheesecake at the store because it is extremely expensive compared to the other …

Kernel Season’s White Cheddar Seasoning is a popcorn seasoning. I like the Kernel Season’s brand quite a lot because the variety of seasonings give microwaved popcorn that much needed boost in taste and flavor! I find that if I have popcorn seasoning in the cabinet, I’m more inclined to …

If you ever make your way to Southeast Asian countries like Singapore and Malaysia, be sure to request for this particular dish known as Fried Bee Hoon. In English, it is called Fried Vermicelli.
But my personal favorite for Fried Bee Hoon would be the spicy and in …

I just recently realized that the Icebergs Restaurant along Tomas Morato serves other dishes other than ice cream. So along with the ice cream dessert that we ordered, we also ordered a nice, easy to eat dish for the afternoon. My husband and I chose their Yum Yum Cheesy …

I really like this entrée. I continually find that Lean Cuisine has great offerings and knows how to both make typically “unhealthy” meals healthy, and knows how to make healthy meals taste great that might not otherwise would. Their Salmon with Basil Frozen Entrée is an example, in my …
