Heritage flavoured milk
Heritage is the name of a very big farm where the pure and good quality milk is available. Everyday we buy the heritage milk for our family. Just a few days back when I had been to the market my eyes caught the flavoured milk from Heritage. …
Healthy Lifestyles Lagundi Eucalyptus Tea
Just a week ago, I experienced symptoms of dry cough. Every time I would experience feelings like this, I always pre-empt it with anything that can thwart it or prevent it. Aside from drinking medicine, I doubled my prevention with drinking Lagundi tea. I hardly knew any brand that manufactures …
Casa Mamita Beef & Bean Burrito (Single Serve Pack)
The Casa Mamita Beef & Bean Burrito can be found in the refrigerated case at ALDI Food Market stores for twenty-nine cents each. They are sold in single serve wrappers, which is kind of inconvenient if a person wants to purchase say four, five or six at a time. …
Sardine Pesto Meal from Pasta Plate
The Sardine Pesto is one of the most popular dishes from Pasta Plate and it is my personal favorite as well. When I eat the pesto on its own, it doesn’t taste anything special. It is just plain and bland. On the other hand, when I taste the sardine …
Dannon Peach Passion Fruit Frusion Smoothie
Getting young children to eat healthy and have a balanced diet can be a tricky thing. I know from experience with my younger brother, that he really didn’t want to eat breakfast foods unless they were coated with sugar substances, or he wouldn’t eat breakfast at all. I am …
Subway’s New Chicken Salad sub
I saw a television ad for Subway’s new chicken salad sub and decided to give it a try at my local Subway, since it was one of their $5 footlong specials. I liked the fact that it was one of their healthy options and I love chicken salad made …
Kazim’s Place Green Salad
I really need to start eating green salad a lot more like I used to back in high school. I usually get a lovely large helping of green salad at Kazim’s Place anytime I purchase food there. It is usually served as a side dish but they give you …
Smuckers Strawberry Preserves
Well, it’s time for a classic. I’ve been going on a binge here lately buying local to me (Southeast Texas) or independent brands particularly in the jam/jelly/honey butter department, I thought it was time for a change. Along with my usual essential provisions at the grocery store, (Bacon, beer, …
Gourmet Select Party Mix
This six ounce snack mix from the Dollar Tree is pretty bland. There are only three kinds of snacks to be found in a bag: garlic toast, pretzels and wheat snacks. There are no cheese snacks or sweet snacks, just basically salt and garlic snacks. The flavors thus don’t …
Mrs. May’s Cran-Tropical Crunch
I know that junk food is not good for you, but I just found the Mrs. May’s Cran-Tropical Crunch in the grocery and loved it. Like all junk foods, this claims to be a healthy food, vegan, wheat free with no preservatives. It’s a combination of cashes, almonds, pistachios …
Snapps Loaded Potato Sticks Appetizer
Snapps loaded potato sticks is an appetizer I found when I didn’t have enough time to prepare my lunch for work, and I had to rush over to Wal-Mart to find something quick to eat. Before making the purchase I wasn’t familiar with the Snapps brand, and I was a …
Sour Skittles (Green Wrapper)
Taste the rainbow? More like taste sweet pain. Sour Skittles are basically just Original SKittles except for one addition. They are overwhelming coated in that sour powder stuff that you see on candy ever now and then.
At first I was very eager to try Sour Skittles out, I mean …
Ore Ida Sweet Potato Fries
I tried the Ore Ida frozen sweet potato fries recently because I had a coupon for a free bag. I also really like sweet potatoes and I love fries so I figured this was a great opportunity to combine two of my favorite food items. And I …
Japanese Mochi Crème mochi balls
I had the chance to taste mochi balls (locally made) at the SM mall in Davao city. A poster caught my eye and it says Japanese Mochi Crème mochi balls. Mochi balls are made of glutinous rice (or a sticky goeey substance) and is filled with ice cream. I …
Nestle’s Pure Life Water
Nestle’s Pure Life Water comes in four different flavors. Strawberry, orange, lemon and raspberry. It has enough flavoring to make the drink enjoyable and yet it is not over powering. One thing I personally like is that it does not have any extras added like carbonation or vitamins. Waters …
Diet Coca Cola
I used to drink quite a lot of Diet Coca Cola but recently Pepsi Max has been on special offer so I’ve taken to drinking that. Today though I picked up a small 500ml bottle of Diet Coke and I can honestly say I don’t know why I …
Kirkland coffee
I really enjoy Kirkland coffee. It is great because it comes in a very large 48 oz or 3 pound container. This coffee is a blend of different Columbian coffees and I think it is a good tasting blend that
comes together and is smooth and …
Count Chocula Energy Drink
I have to get up early to go to work and I don’t get much sleep at night with a toddler so I’m always looking for something to get me through the day.
Normally, I don’t like energy drinks. I’ve never cared for their flavor. However, I tried the Count …
Old Glory Red Table Wine
We bought a bottle of Old Glory Red Table Wine at our local Fox Valley Winery. The standard, 750 ml bottle was priced a little over $13. We had tasted the wine before, so we knew what to expect when we opened the bottle at home for a nice …
Corralejo Reposado Tequila
I love good tequila, and reposado is my favorite. When I saw this fun bottle, I had to give it a try, and I think it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever had.
For anyone who doesn’t know, a reposado tequila is sort of the middle grounds in terms …
Bird’s Eye Voila: Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry
Bird’s Eye Voila beef and broccoli stir fry is a ready made dinner that you heat up on the stove for the instructed time, and that’s it: No difficulty and no fuss. I’m always trying to take shortcuts when it comes to preparing meals, and the Bird’s Eye Voila …
Fairlee Orange Juice in Tetra Pak 1L
I always thought that Tropicana was simply peerless, until I came across this one. I never knew that Canada makes one hundred percent pure orange juice like this. I’ll start with the taste. It is truly superb, it has just the right tanginess and the wholesome taste …
Jusedo Hot Slimming
For me, having a slim posture is really important than any other things in my life, I even dare for not eating for a day just to reduce 10 lbs in a week. Sometimes, I can be addicted toward mass diet (even though I know it’s not a good …

Friendly Farms Aerosol Whipped Light Cream
The Friendly Farms Aerosol Whipped Light Cream comes in a seven ounce can for one dollar and forty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Although more whipped cream can be bought for less in a standard container, this aerosol can offers a degree of convenience that the standard container …
Tropicana Twister with Real Orange Pulp (Orange Juice)
With the flu virus always around us, it is important that we keep ourselves healthy to prevent being caught by this virus. I am always health concious and I do my best to eat and drink something which is good for my health. Well, orange juice or any fruit …
Berni Pesto Al Basilico (Pesto Sauce)
I am a big fan of pesto sauce, that delicious Italian staple made with basil, garlic and butter. My husband makes the best homemade pesto ever, but it does take some time to prepare. At my favourite Italian market, I found a small jar of imported prepared pesto from …
Kashi Heart-to-Heart Roasted Garlic Crackers
Triscuits is one of my favorite snacks. However, if you noticed the salt content, you may be turned away from the fact that it is more than recommended by the FDA. Although it is healthier than other snacks in the market, it is still not a recommended …
Nestle Cream D’Lite
When you are on a diet, you have to choose the food that you eat. But supposing you wanted a “Creama De Fruta” but then the ingredients are not fat free, diet becomes impossible. I always appreciate the various brands that have come up with less-fat formulas to help …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - French Vanilla
Jell-o Instant Pudding - French Vanilla is most definitely one of my favorite pudding varieties! I really enjoy the flavor of vanilla, and this pudding most definitely has a terrific vanilla flavor! The fact that it is french vanilla only helps to make this an even tastier treat! The …
Voortman Chunky Chip Cookies
I admit that my family loves to eat the sweet stuff despite all the health warnings. Part of the grocery run is walking up and down the chocolate and cookies aisle to see what we have not yet tasted. My mother spotted this Canadian product called Voortman Chunky …
Borden’s Eagle Brand Condensed Milk
The holidays are my favorite time of the year for making candies. One of the popular ingredients that I use often is Eagle brand condensed milk. I usually buy the fourteen ounce size can for about two dollars each. Borden’s Eagle brand condensed milk pours easily …
Stouffer’s Chicken Quesadilla Flatbread Melt
Stouffer’s Chicken Quesadilla Flatbread Melt is a something that I like to have for lunch now and then, but it is out for dinner time since I do not find it to be filling enough to last me for the remainder of the night and early morning. However, the …
Ritz 100 Calorie Snack Packs
Dieting has come a long way in recent years in offering great tasting foods with few calories. One fad that has been catching on and gaining momentum is the portion controlled way of dieting. Basically, you’re eating real food that tastes great but you’re just limiting yourself to regular …
Quick Eaze Gravy Mix
Quick Eaze Gravy Mix is what my kids call the cheating way to make gravy. I guess they call it that because as the name implies it is easy to make gravy from their mix. All you do is add 1 cup of cold water to the season packet …
Entenmann’s Glazed Chocolate Pop’ems
I find these Entenmann’s Glazed Chocolate Pop’ems to be pretty tasty! These are most certainly more flavorful than the plain chocolate pop’ems or really any of the other flavored pop’ems. The combination of chocolate and glazed icing is really something special and it is something that the other pop’ems …
Land, Soft Fruit Cheese, Apricot
I like the taste of Apricot very much and I buy almost always yogurts with taste of apricot. Before today I never eat apricot soft fruit cheese. I never buy soft fruit cheeses because they are very little and they seems to me like a babies food. I was …
McCormick Brown Gravy Mix
I am just going to come right out and say that making gravy from scratch is not my forte and I envy those who are capable of doing so. Making gravy from scratch is probably one of the simplest skills a cook should have in their arsenal, but whenever I …
Betty Crocker Super Moist Milk Chocolate Cake Mix
In my lifetime, I’ve tried a variety of cake mixes, and I suppose that at various times, different brands have been my favorite. Lately, I’ve been purchasing Betty Crocker Super Moist Milk Chocolate Cake Mix off and on.
For one thing, Betty Crocker is an industry leader. There’s …
Frey Chocobloc Orange chocolate
My husband and I went to Robinsons to look for toys for our little girl. Near the toys section, there is a chocolates counter. You can get about 4 bars of chocolates for $11. And being the generous husband that I have, he will ask me to select some …
Odwalla: Strawberry Pomegranate Food Bar
Like many people I am constantly on the go, whether it be to work, school, or recreation, I am always out the door. With being on the move, I found that snacks have become a big part of my daily nutrition. Usually I keep cereal bars on hand, dried …
Keeber Elfin Crackers
I tend to eat out of the vending machine at work way too often. When I find myself looking for something to eat I am usually left with little or no healthy alternatives. Torn between purchasing chips or a candy bar I discovered Elfin Crackers. Elfin Crackers are essentially …
Mrs. Freshley’s Chocolate Cupcakes
I much prefer the Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes as opposed to the originals. The reason I do not care for these cupcakes is because there is a lot more sugar and calories and other bad things to be found within these cupcakes, and while the SnackAway version of …
Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix
Although the Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix is not one that I will purchase again, I did find the hot chocolate mix to be relatively pleasant. What I liked about this hot chocolate mix is that unlike a lot of other hot chocolate mixes, this one had a …
Barber Foods Kiev Stuffed Chicken Breasts
I’ve tried many stuffed chicken breasts, but I never had the opportunity to try the ones with the butter in them. I wasn’t sure about getting more than one box of the Barber Foods Kiev stuffed chicken breasts because not all garlic butter is good butter.
I put the chicken …
Tvarscki vodka
If you are searching for an affordable, yet drinkable mixer beverage, Tvarscki vodka is an excellent choice. More often than not, any bottle of alcohol purchased for under fifteen dollars later proves to be a terrible choice. Cheaper vodkas often tend to have a very bitter, rubbing …
Lipton Asian Sides
It is not uncommon for my family to dine on Asian cuisine at least once a week; it’s easy to make, inexpensive and a healthy alternative to the traditional Western fatty diet. I was intrigued to notice that Knorr-Lipton had entered the almost-instant food category with a new …
