Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops are terrible. They simply are. To my taste buds, these mini muffin tops are almost totally tasteless and plus, because they are so small, eating one does nothing for me at all. I know that these are not intended to …
Glowing Charcoal Coffee
Two months ago, my friend told me that there was the most famous and delicious coffee in Malioboro street, Yogyakarta, Java Island, Indonesia. She said that the name of that coffee was charcoal coffee. It was the first time I heard that curious kind of coffee. I interested to …

Little Debbie Marshmallow Supremes
What is so supreme about these Little Debbie Marshmallow Supremes? The marshmallow flavor really needs some work and Little Debbie definitely needs to go back to the kitchen and re-work the recipe! Although there is some marshmallow flavor, it is no nearly rich and authentic enough to satisfy me. …
Bulgari marshmallow
I like marshmallow but not particularly so I never buy them but my sister likes them a lot and so we usually have them at home so in the lack of something sweet I eat them.

Accidentally Fabulous Apple Raisin Stuffing
Thanksgiving Day rolled around and I had never gotten out to buy celery or onions for the homemade stuffing Mom wanted. I can’t explain it - I just didn’t feel like it, partly because I just didn’t feel right, period. I did have some stove-top-like stuffing mix, …
Haagen-Dazs Caramel Cone Ice Cream
I was on a Haagen-Dazs kick when I purchased this rich and decadent ice cream. Caramel is a great ice cream flavor, but I find that sometimes it’s used too liberally and I can’t always handle its richness. So while I was eager to try this flavor, I was …
Millville Shredded Wheat Bite Size Whole Grain Wheat Cereal
The Millville Shredded Wheat Bite Size Whole Grain Wheat Cereal comes in a sixteen point four box for one dollar and eighty-nine cents. This is pure shredded wheat cereal as there is no frosted side. As one can imagine, the cereal doesn’t
taste like much of anything. It’s definitely not …
Magnolia Quickmelt Cheese
Magnolia Quickmelt Cheese is one of the best for me. I usually have it on my fridge most of the time. It’s something that I love to put on my favorite foods. I always make pasta at home, and it feels great when there’s lot of cheese on it. …
Glutino Gluten Free Cheddar Crackers
These crackers taste as good, if not better, than regular cheddar crackers. That might seem like a bold statement because gluten free foods often don’t taste the same or as great but in this case, it’s the truth.
The box when purchased contains two silver packages of these crackers. The …
Meat Lovers Pizza from Dominos
The Meat Lovers Pizza that arrived from Dominoes wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. I think that I was hoping for a lot more meat, and they just didn’t deliver on that promise. The pizza itself arrived hot and smelling strongly of pizza sauce, but there were not enough …
Echo Mint Chocolate Bars
I got addicted to a very similar chocolate bar from Marks & Spencers, but I started buying these —˜Echo’ bars from Wilkinsons as they are very similar but a lot cheaper, at 89 pence for a packet of 6 bars. These are quite a small size at about …

Mott’s Applesauce Natural (46oz jar)
Although individually wrapped applesauce cups are really convenient, I like purchasing the big jars because they are more environmentally friendly - less waste and reusable jar. I had been buying a specialty organic brand because I had a hard time finding applesauce that didn’t have added sugar, but I …
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs are really quite good really! I have tried Swedis meatballs before, and I have never really been all that impressed. However, these Swedish meatballs have quite a strong bite to them and the flavor is very much unhidden. I was really very surprised by just how …
Carte Noire Instant Coffee Granules
Carte Noire is the best instant coffee available in my opinion. This is a premium instant coffee and it is one of the most expensive brands but you can shop around for special offers as they do appear occasionally. I have just bought myself a 100g jar …
KFC’s Bucket Meal
I love Kentucky Fried Chicken. Who doesn’t? It was great that they have the Bucket meal that can serve a huge group of people in a very convenient way.

Nestle Fruit Selection Yogurt
You might not know it but one of the things that should be on your table every morning is a cup of yogurt. This allows proper digestion. Before I don’t listen to this health advice. I cannot stand the taste of yogurt. It makes me sick, it induces me …
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers are one of those things that I saw and couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen potato chips with a similar flavor, but never crackers. They don’t look all that bad and they actually appear kind of cute, until you read the ingredients and the fine print. …

Whenever I have an eating outing with friends, family or my boyfriend, I will go to my favorite hawker center and request for this special dish which is Grilled Brinjal with Sausage.

San Mig Coffee Pro-Power
I love coffee and I experiment with different kinds of coffee all the time in my quest to find the best one. I love them brewed of course, but I am not averse to the 3-in-1 variety which is so convenient. I am taste-tasting all the different kinds of …
Dr.Thunder
I love Dr. Thunder for its pleasant, refreshing “almondy” taste, very close to that of Dr. Pepper and for half the price. I buy 2 liter bottles of it at Walmart for only 58 cents a bottle, and sometimes they even lower the price to 50 cents - hard …
Jack N Jill Chiz Curls
Everybody loves cheese curls, because it is so cheesy. Yes it is rich with cheese, it make my lips look orange, even my tongue. According to my mother this is the first junk food I had tasted when I was a toddler. I remember the blue foil packaging that …
Cadbury Bournvita
Cadbury Bournvita now comes as new Bournvita with superchargers, containing vital nutrients which gives stamina and concentration. Ofcourse one can relish the chocolate flavour of Bournvita.

Nescafe Decaf
Nescafe currently had a campaign to encourage people to drink coffee at night even before you head to bed for a good night slumber. The challenge though is to erase the preconceived notion that coffee, being rich in caffeine will keep you awake. Thus they manufactured a different mix, this …
Hostess The Flash Cakes
There’s really nothing all that notable about Hostess The Flash Cakes. Although the cupcakes may look attractive, they’re basically nothing more than Hostess Cupcakes with food coloring added as well as sprinkles. For the most part, Hostess The Flash Cakes and Hostess Cupcakes taste exactly like, with the only …
Nestle Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink
I am always in a hurry and most often than not cannot afford to have a decent breakfast. So I always rely on Nestle Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink. It has Original, Sweet Corn and Choco Malt flavors.
What I love with Nestle Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink is that it is …
Classic Coca-Cola
Classic Coca-Cola is a delicious and flavorful soft drink that is, at least in my case, addicting. Just having a can of this soda elevates my spirit and enhances my level of concentration - probably a result of the caffeine in the soda. Speaking of caffeine, that is just …
Miracle noodles
I’ve been trying to cut down on carbs. I saw an advertisement for these (also known as Shirataki noodles) and thought I’d give it a try. I purchased them directly from the Miracle Noodle website, which was from CA to PA. The order took five days to …
Red Rock Deli Chips
Red Rock Deli is an Australian brand of chips and is the best chips I have ever eaten. I love the way they feel when you bite them; they have the right texture and the right thickness just like Kettle chips. They are also not too oily. …
Whopper
The Burger King Whopper is definitely one of my favorites. I get it with cheese because I’m a big cheese lover. With the Whopper, I think it starts with the meat. It’s flamed broiled goodness. When it’s warm it almost melts in your mouth. …
Great Value Battered Fish Fillets
I like Great Value Battered Fish Fillets, they are a good choice if you feel like having some fish but don’t feel like spending a lot of time cooking it. All you do is preheat your oven to 425 degrees, place the desired amount of fish fillets on a …
Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle

Strawberry Chex
I just tried this cereal not too long ago because the shoppers where I live had a sale on cereal. It’s pretty good. The strawberry taste is very strong. It’s definately different from the other kinds of chex. I love strawberries and almost anything flavored with strawberry but I …
Great Value Candy Corn
Halloween is almost here again. Well, to be honest, it’s more than a month away at the time of this article’s writing, but already I’m craving my favorite Halloween treats. Usually I’m perfectly satisfied with generic and store brands, but Great Value candy corn was a disappointment.
In …
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Macaroni and Cheese: Cheddar
So it seems like nowadays more brands are getting on what I like to call the band wagon of Macaroni and cheese. There’s so many variations out there that sometimes it can get a little overwhelming. Many of us are big fans of Kraft, and know nothing else. I’m …
Ortega Mild Taco Sauce
My family and I have been using Ortega Mild Taco Sauce for many years now. I enjoy the mild saucy taste as condiment when we have tacos. While there are several flavors that Ortega offers, mild is the family favor. Because it is not too spicy, but …

Keebler’s Chips Deluxe Chocolate Lover’s Cookies
I just recently “discovered” this particular flavor of this brand and I’d have to say, I like it more than other brands of cookies. I used to be a big Chips Ahoy fan but for some reason , they changed the way they make the cookies. Now, when I …
Little Debbie Cherry Cordials
I find these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials to be decent, although nothing truly incredible. This snack consists of vanilla cookies that are coated in chocolate fudge and have cherry creme in the middle. Now the reason I simply consider these cookies to be decent and nothing more is because …
Millville Honey Nut Crispy Oats Cereal
“Millville Honey Nut Crispy Oats Cereal” is a cereal that I purchased at Aldi as a cheaper alternative to “General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios”. At Aldi, for a 12.25 ounce box, I paid approximately $1.49. It’s a pretty good value compared to what the stores want for the national, …
Sari Amaretto Arino
I love a good quality liqueur, with Disaronno being my absolute favourite and something I could drink every day. The problem is that Disaronno is expansive so not something I want to buy all the time, I decided to try other brands of Amaretto to bring down …
Peanut Butter & Company White Chocolate Wonderful Peanut Butter
I heard about the company Peanut butter & Company a long time ago but didn’t get around to trying out any of their peanut butters until now. I always wanted to try the White Chocolate Wonderful flavor because as a vegan I love white chocolate and white chocolate …
