Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs
A snowball is a snowball, and that, unfortunately, is the case with Mrs. Freshley’s Pink Snowballs. Do not let the unusual pink color of these snowballs catch your eye - there is nothing different about these snowballs from other snowballs sold in the grocery stores. The pink is nothing …
Nescafe 2in1 Milk + coffee
The other day I was shopping and I saw these bunch of instant coffee 1 dose bags. As lately I really started liking these instant coffee drinks because they are much tastier than actual coffee and they are also much easier to prepare. You just have to pour some …
Aunt Jemima: Original Syrup

Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes Taco Bell
I don’t usually stray from Taco Bell’s main menu. I’ve been eating the same 4 or 5 value meals since I was in fifth grade (save for minor changes to the menu.) Well, I ended up trying a 1/2 pound cheesy potato burrito and loved it, but I didn’t …

Tyson Bread Chicken Patties
In my opinion, there is nothing better than having an occasional chicken sandwich; however, not all brands who produce chicken patties are good. Originally, my mom started me on Tyson bread chicken patties, but it was I who would continue to eat them.
I like how the chicken patties …
Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar
Sometimes I don’t like change, and I sure hope the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar remains unchanged. I say this because in Fall 2008, the Hershey Company began replacing the very expensive cocoa butter which gives their chocolates that taste we all love and crave with vegetable oil. …

Marie Callender’s Frozen Chicken Pot Pies

Blue Bunny King Size Chocolate Eclair Ice Cream Bar
Blue Bunny King Size Chocolate Eclair Ice Cream Bar just does not seem to work very well for me. I quite enjoy a good, flavorful eclair, but this is not something that reminds of an eclair. The chocolate in this frozen treat is not all that creamy or even …

Contessa Green Cuisine Meals
While I like the concept behind Contessa Green Cuisine meals; make a frozen food product while working to reduce pollution, I have to say I found myself unimpressed when I had one of the dinners last night.
I had the Chicken Stir Fry and it had zero taste. It was …
Busy Baker Snack Crackers

Silk Brand Chocolate Soy MIlk
Silk is known for their line of healthy soy milk drinks. One such drink is supposed to be a “rich, velvety” milk chocolate flavored beverage. My first roommate in college was adamantly vegetarian and gave me daily lectures on my murderous meat-eating ways, trying to force various …
Glaceau Vitamin Water
Well I wil say the good stuff first. I appreciate the Glaceau Vitamin Water people for the fact that they don’t use high fructose corn syrup to sweeten their beverages. It is one of the cheapest and most overused sweeteners as of today. Many kids are becoming allergic because …
Marilan Peanut Filled Wafers

Healthsmart Chocolite Chocolate Pecan Cluster Bar

Virgil’s Root Beer
If you like root beer, and have developed a taste for more nuanced brews, you will love Virgil’s. It generally comes in four-packs and isn’t the cheapest option around, but it has a pretty interesting composition that makes for very enjoyable drinking.
