Starbucks Via Refresher: Valencia Orange
I’m usually not a fan of soluble, instant anything, especially not instant coffee. But the Starbucks’ VIA Refreshers are, well, refreshing. If you’re a fan of any of the refreshers they make in their stores, then you’ll especially enjoy their VIA Valencia Orange Refresher. It tastes as close to …
Ginyi All Natural American Ginseng Teabag

30 Count Chocolate Bar Variety Pack
My biggest problem with this thirty count variety pack packaged and released by M & M Mars is that it’s very uneven in the different number of chocolate candy bars. By that, I mean, while there’s thirty Snickers bars, there’s only three 3 Musketeers. There’s eight Twix bars but …
GV sausage patties
I am a bargain shopper, as you might know. I refuse to pay for a name, when products are similar. I also can’t afford to spend the money on a name. If a store brand or generic is an equal quality, and cheaper, count me in. While browsing the …
Haagen-Dazs Pineapple Coconut Ice Cream
The combination of pineapple and coconut is one of my best-loved combinations. I was so excited to see that Haagen-Dazs made it into an ice cream. In my opinion it’s hard to beat fresh, fruity and slightly sour pineapple mixed with creamy and rich coconut.
This ice cream has a …
Great Value Canned Corn
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 …
Eillien’s Chocolate Covered Cashews
My daughter recently got a can of chocolate covered cashews from the brand Eillien’s. They were supposed to be her treat as long as she shared a few of them. But, as much as it makes me seem like a bad person, I have to admit I have eaten …
Nescafe Sunrise Premium Granulated Coffee
I am not a regular coffee drinker but if I am feeling so sleepy and I really needed to get back to my feet and stand, I simply needed a good coffee to perk me up and so I bought Nescafe Sunrise Granulated Coffee.

SIlk Soymilk

Harris Teeter Honey Flavored Cheese Curls
I gave this new kind of snack a try one day, when my sister urged me to try it. She told me they were the off brand version of Cheetos, which ultimately caused me to laugh. In my experience anything that isn’t the actual original Cheetos are either too …

Medeiros Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Tesco Crazy Caramel
I love these —˜Crazy Caramel’ bars which are from Tesco’s own label, but then I love Mars bars and these are remarkably similar. These are bite size bars so they are smaller than standard Mars bars but a lot bigger than Mars funsize bars for example. Just …
Mrs. Freshley’s Raspberry Creme Cakes
I am pretty pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Raspberry Creme Cakes. I find that unlike with some of the other products by this company, like the banana cakes, this creme cake actually has a pretty decent raspberry flavor that I find rather scrumptious - especially after I have just heated …
Bottega Nero Dark Chocolate Liquor
Alcohol is something I’ve never written a review for and it’s not that I don’t drink, it’s just that I didn’t want to write about things like wine and beer, since it’s really hard to explain the flavor of those (at least for me) and will unlikely give people …

Cousin’s Meatball Subs
A couple days ago, I was in the mood for a meatball sub. Normally, I get these at Subway but Cousin’s was on the way home so I stopped their instead.
It was OK, but I think I still prefer Subway’s version.
I’m a huge Cousin’s fan, mostly because they do …
Sharwoods Chicken Korma with Rice
I don’t eat many ready meals, finding they always taste far too salty for me and mostly have an incredible amount of fat in them. Add to this the fact that these days most ready meals take around forty five minutes to cook in the oven and you …

Fast Classics 100% Beef Burgers

Ledo Twice ice cream forest fruits-vanilla-punch

Jack & Jill Pretzels Chocolate Sticks
Chocolate has always been one of my favorite foods. I’ve already tasted Jack & Jill Pretzels ever since I was a child, and I still still it until now. It’s just a cheap chocolate stick pretzel, but it’s very good. I like it when it’s cold. So, every time …
Cracker Jacks - bag version
Crackers Jacks have been around for ages. I grew up enjoying this snack. In recent years, I haven’t purchased it very often, mainly because it’s harder to find at the grocery store. When I have, it’s been the traditional, single serve box that is so familiar to most. …
Mizone - Orange Lime
To keep healthy, everyday at least we must drink eight glass of water, but I really difficult to do it. I’m the kind of person who not drink water much, maybe thats why my skin feels dry. But, to keep my body from dehidration, I like to drink Mizone. …
Raley’s Fine Foods Microwave Popcorn - Extra Butter

The box for the …
Kirkland Signature Drinking Water
I bought a case of the Kirkland Signature Drinking Water, distributed by Costco Wholesale Corporation out of Seattle Washington. The first thing I noticed about the water was a very strong chlorine taste that made it, to me, barely drinkable.
We will generally refill the water bottles in our …
Burger King’s Big Fish Sandwich

Snickers Candy Bar
Snickers Candy Bars are just awesome. They’ve been a favorite in my home for decades. They’re a yummy combination of roasted peanuts, nougats, milk chocolate, and caramel. Again, with both milk chocolate and peanuts in the equation, that equals good stuff.
A few years back there was …
Vindija cream yogurt Stracciatella
Yesterday I bought 2 Vindija cream yogurts, one had a taste of vanilla and one had a taste of stracciatella. I must admit that I likes vanilla one more. I am very fond of stracciatella ice cream so each time I see a stracciatella yoghurt I can’t resist it. …

Hamburger Helper in Stroganoff
I have bought many Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper products over the years, but the worse one I ever encountered was the Stroganoff. In a hurry to make a quick dinner a few nights ago, I picked up this Stroganoff mixture at my local supermarket for just $1.99CDN.
The mixture on …

Having a lunch with cold drinks is an ideal lunch. We usually enjoy the food with a refresher on the side. It is juice, soft drinks and iced tea or normally cold water. My family changes from these three above from time to time. Our lunch cannot be complete …
Jose Pedro Salsa
If you like mild but flavorful salsa, you MUST try this salsa I found at Dollar Tree. Now, I’ve bought their 16 oz. jars before and they’re very good, but this one is 24 oz., which is 50% more for the same price!
We use a lot of salsa …

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 …
Starbuck’s Frappuccino (cold drink) Coffee Taste
Cold coffee drinks are one of my addictions. So whe I saw one of them produced by Starbucks, I just had to try. The little devil of 250ml costed me €1,89 (about $2) at a Belgian supermarket. Not cheap, but compared to the prices of Starbucks drinks in their …

Nestle Toll House Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
