Clover Valley Strawberry Soda
I recently purchased a two liter bottle of soda called Clover Valley. I got the strawberry flavored soda, because I personally love fruit flavored drinks. I have always preferred them to colas and other flavors. I placed the soda in the refrigerator to let it get cold of course, …
Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
I use condensed milk to sweeten up my porridge on mornings and was very accustomed to using a different brand of condensed milk so this may be why I found “faults” in Eagle Brand’s Sweetened Condensed Milk.
I first encountered this brand of condensed milk while on vacation. It’s not …
Taco Bell Meal Deal
I have been seeing all the commercials about Taco Bell’s new two dollar meal deals. The commercials make the meals look large and fulfilling. They have a variety of meals that come with one main item a drink and a bag of chips. They have been advertising the beefy …
Bubble Tea
One of my recent cravings is for tea drinks with pearls. As a result, I always find myself going to the Bubble Tea branch in Tomas Morato which has only been open for several months. I like the branch because aside from being near my place, it …
Great Value Crescent Rolls
Great Value Crescent Rolls are one of my favorite snacks to go with a cup of coffee or tea. The rolls are incredibly soft and tasty, and they are very easy to make. The rolls come in a can that has ready-to-bake dough for 8 rolls. The directions on …
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. …
Sweetzels Spiced Wafer cookies
Sweetzels Spiced Wafer cookies were something I had the chance to try recently when I spent a couple of days at my parent’s house. They usually keep a few different types of cookies and candies on hands for the grandchildren and these were one of the new things they …
Little Debbie Easter Marshmallow Treats
It is nice for a change to see Little Debbie put out a seasonal snack that is not a carbon copy of a snack that is a part of their year-round line simply with food coloring and a different shape. These snacks come in the form of bars that …

DEL MONTE LITE MIXED FRUITS
Sometimes, it just seems difficult to keep fresh fruit around the house for all those lunches that the children and the adults need during the day. Fruit is so important. Fruit is what a person who is watching their diet,should eat, when the sugar ‘wants’ hit! Fruit will take …
Swiffer Dusters Kit
I bought the fixed handle Swiffer Dusters Kit for about $9.99Cdn. This kit consists of a blue plastic handle and three dusters. The dusters are made of some fiber material, that makes me think of J-cloths. They look like the old fashioned feather dusters that people use to dust …
ValuTime Cooking Spray
Product Description: Can of non-stick vegetable cooking spray. My wife picked this up at our local Piggly Wiggly grocery store a couple days ago for around $1.50 and we’ve used it a few times since then.

Two nights a week I work the night shift . I would not make it without my 5 Hour energy Shot . It works wonders !
It is a sugar free small energy drink . You take it in one shot . It comes in many flavors , but I …
Tropicana Orange Juice
As I live in Florida, I tend to be spoiled with the real deal: fresh orange juice. With orange trees in abundance, it is simply about picking the oranges off trees and squeezing the oranges for super fresh juice. Even if we didn’t have oranges nearby, we can head …
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 …
Peanut Delight Natural Creamy Peanut Butter Spread
There are a lot of different flavors and varieties out there of peanut butter, and even saying that might be an understatement! Sometimes, too many choices can make making an actual choice quite hard and, sometimes, if you’re just looking for something simple, it can get lost among all …
Oatly Vegan Ice-cream
Vegan ice-cream is not something you can surprise people with anymore. America is the queen of vegan ice-cream and part of the reason why I’m looking forward to going back there this summer is actually the dairy-free ice-cream. In Europe, however, there aren’t that many brands that make the cruelty-free …
Kraft Pizza
I am not a huge fan of pre-packaged pizza mixes, but in a hurry one night I decided to try Kraft Pizza Crust Mix with Cheese, Herbs and Tomato Sauce to make a pizza for guests and myself.
This small 450gram orange box cost only $2.99CDN, which I thought, was …
Chick-fil-A Fruit Cup
The Fruit Cup side dish at Chick-fil-A is really quite enjoyable! This fruit cup is positively overflowing with fresh and flavorful fruit that makes of a scrumptious afternoon snack. I like to order this side dish and then save it for later in the day - maybe three hours …
Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls to be pretty much standard fare. By standard fare, I mean that there is nothing that really sets these Swiss Rolls apart from those made by other companies. In fact, Little Debbie offers a packaged variety of Swiss Rolls that have different fillings …
The Chocolate Lover’s Wine by Chocolate Shop Wine
I have been a wine drinker for about a decade now. Over the years I have become accustomed to seeing great wines that happen to have kooky names. This seems to be especially true of wines produced where I live on the west coast. I take it as a …
Silk (Soy Milk)
I’m not a vegan, so when I first heard about Silk Soy Milk I didn’t put too much thought into trying it. All I knew was that the commercials showing people drinking it like it was the most delicious thing in the world were pretty tempting. To be honest, …
Red Baron Rising Crust Frozen Pizza
I recently tried the Red Baron four cheese rising crust frozen pizza. It was less expensive than many other brands for frozen pizza and I quickly learned why.
The crust did rise as the name suggests, however, the sauce is very spicy. The sauce has an extreme peppery …
Stouffer’s Frozen Food - Spaghetti with Meatballs
Stouffer’s Frozen Food - Spaghetti with Meatballs is a product I’ve purchased for several years now. I’m a spaghetti fiend and am always searching for good and easy spaghetti to prepare.
Stouffer’s is actually the first frozen food brand that I ever liked. Until their products came out, …
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild variety is indeed mild. This cheese dip, I think, is ideal for those individuals that like a cheese dip that has just a little fire to it. When I dip a chip in the cheese dip, I get a fairly thick and non-runny dip …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Bars
I am one of the biggest fans of Kellogg’s Special K Cereal. I have to have a bowl or two everyday. I was excited when Special K started to produce other products such as protein bars, meal bars, and snack bites. I hurriedly went to the …

Potato chips is that snack food that many people have happily enjoyed over the years. There are many versions and flavors to choose from out there, many different brands that we explore on a daily basis. One of the different brand of rippled potato chips I decided to try …
Americana Mayonnaise
Earlier on in my life, I wasn’t really a lover of mayonnaise. It was only until recently though that I’ve come to appreciate mayonnaise in a good sandwich. I’ve also realised that not all mayonnaise are as good as others in terms of taste especially after trying quite a …
Pillsbury Moist Supreme Sugar Free Devil’s Food Cake Mix
Baking is fun but I do not have time. My problem is always where to get the time to bake. There has been a good alternative nowadays because cake mix are available. This does not mean though that you can skip baking but it is an instant mix which …
Milo (Tonic Food Drink)
Aside from coffee, I also love taking Milo every morning. The whole family actually can drink a glass of it anytime whenever they want to specially my kids. It is a healthy drink and is very affordable at the same time.
Nestle Milo comes …
Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites
I started buying Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites Mini Pasta Shells and Meatballs when my store stopped carrying their regular spaghetti and meatballs. I really don’t know why they did that; it really made me an unhappy camper.
Regardless, Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites Mini Pasta Shells and Meatballs aren’t bad. They …
Cedarlane Cheese Lasagna
Cedarlane Cheese Lasagna is not a frozen pasta meal that I plan on purchasing again because I did not find it to be all that enjoyable. The reason I did not find it to be too enjoyable is because the flavor of the lasagna, be it the pasta, the …
K Rogers Danish Style Butter Cookies
We got these delicious cookies as a Diwali present from our landlord. We were thankful for the sweets they have given us and so I was able to write a review about K Rogers Danish Style Butter Cookies.
Most of canned cookies here are imports from other country so the …
Palermo’s Thin Crust Supreme Frozen Pizza
This is one of the most delicious frozen pizzas available. I have tried several brands of frozen pizza and found most to taste like cardboard; flat and flavorless. Palermo’s, however, has lots of tangy flavor without being spicy. Their flavor comes from the generous amount of toppings, not spice. …
Appleton Farms Boneless Ham Steak
I have only been able to purchase the Appleton Farms Boneless Ham Steak at ALDI Food Market stores, which is unfortunate because if the ALDI Food Markets around my home ever stop selling this ham, I won’t be able to purchase it anywhere else. It’s very good ham and …
Candylicious Rum and Raisin Fudge
Who ever came up with the rum and raisin combination must have been a genius of sorts. Frankly I only like to taste alcohol in my desserts or sometimes sweets and imagine how surprised I was when I saw that Candylicious, which is a small candy stall/store in a …
Chicago Town Edge to Edge New York Deli Pizza
I like all different kinds and brand of Pizza’s. It is more Meaty Pizza’s that I tend to go for as I like them better than plain Cheese Pizza’s and this range of Pizza’s are that bit different to other Pizza’s that I have tried. I’m not keen on …
Pik-Nik Shoestring Potatoes Hot Flavor
I like to eat potato chips for a snack, especially when watching TV. Going to the supermarket is like going to paradise, there are a lot of food snacks to choose from! I really could not help but indulge when I visit the snacks section because there are 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 …
Great Value - Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastries
Great Value - Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastries are much sweeter than they should be and also do not offer a very natural blueberry flavor, either. Although the box states that the pastries are made with “real fruit”, there is something about these blueberry pastries that does not taste quite …
Hostess Mini Muffins Brownie Bites
I cannot believe how poor the quality is of the Hostess mini muffin line is. These Hostess Mini Muffins Brownie Bites are terrible, just as the chocolate and banana walnut varieties are. The blueberry variety is barely decent. As for this variety, just like with the other varieties, the …
The Big Deal from Jack in the Box
The Big Deal from Jack in the Box is just great! This meal comes with a chicken sandwich, two beef tacos and a soda. And you can’t go wrong with the great price of $2.59. I mean this is a deal! I had this the other days and the …
Little Debbie Be My Valentine Cakes - Vanilla

Arizona Ice Tea
Arizona Ice tea is the cheapest ice tea that I have ever come across. It is also the best for the small amount that you pay for. If only the other brands sold their drinks for 99 cents. They would get a lot more sales if they did.
You can …
Spam Luncheon Meat
My aunt used to give these to our family occasionally by bulk, giving us boxes and we’d happily eat them with bread and egg for breakfast and afternoon snacks. As I was growing up however we have also tried other snacks and not only Spam, since this had high …
Reggae Jammin Jerk Chicken Burgers
Coming home from classes last Wednesday, I decided that I wanted something different to eat for dinner that day, especially since I would be the only one at home until late. I felt like I wanted a burger, since I hadn’t eaten burgers in ages, but I was against …
Eight O’Clock Ponkana Powdered Juice Drink
Drinking daily juice is one of my habits because it is a good source of vitamin C. Orange juice is the most common orange juice flavor and it has variations as well. Some are sourced from western oranges and some are from mandarin orange. Ponkana is from mandarin orange. It …
