Nutella Hazlenut Spread
I seem to remember that Nutella Hazlenut spread was launched onto the UK market when I was a kid in the 70s but when it came out, I looked at it as the Holy Grail of spreads for children. I hope I am not pregnant or anything …
Lay’s salt & vinegar flavored potato chips
You can find the bags of salt & vinegar flavored Lay’s in 2 sizes, but I always buy the big one as I’m really in love with this potato chips. It’s true that, like many other brands, they fill the bags with more air than potatoes, but that’s only …
Trebor Extra Strong Mints
Trebor Extra Strong Mints are my least favourite brand of mints although I usually accept one if they are offered to me as they are good for freshening breath. They are good at freshening breath precisely because they are so strong that I start to grimace as I …
Froot Loops Cereal
Froot Loops have been a welcome favorite of my sister’s and mine daily breakfast routine for quite a while now. It started in childhood. I think that Froot Loops was my sis’ favorite cereal at that time, and while it wasn’t mine, Sugar Crisp was always tops, it was …
Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie
I enjoyed Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie much more than the apple pie variety. The reason I enjoyed the blueberry variety more is quite simple really: the blueberry filling has a pretty delightful flavor! The filling reminds me of scrumptious blueberries, as it most certainly should. The pie tastes even …
Ranch Dressing with Bacon
We had discovered Ranch dressing with bacon by accident: my father-in-law had mistakenly bought a bottle of it instead of regular Ranch and gave it to us to try. Our family loved the rich taste with a touch of bacon flavor, we now buy only this kind of Ranch. …
Dill Pickles
There are big and small evils in this world. One of the small but unavoidable evils are Dill Pickles In Sandwiches. I hate dill pickles to begin with, and I especially detest them in sandwiches. They taste sour. They make my face twist. They also have this wicked tendency …
Secure Soy Complete Meal Replacement
For those who want to buy this product, let me be the first to tell you that it’s full of chemicals. There’s Sucralose aka Splenda and Aspartame. If you don’t know what Aspartame, it’s the most dangerous additive in our foods. It can cause a lot of illnesses, from …
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips

Ainsley Harriott Asparagus & Leek Risotto
This is another gorgeous risotto dish from Ainsley Harriott’s brand. It is so convenient to make, difficult to get wrong actually, and it tastes amazing. This is a dried risotto mix that you can make on the hob or even in the microwave and I made mine …
Dare Bear Paws - Chocolate Chip
Although maybe not the best choice for a snack nutrition wise, I love these cookies, and my kids always ask for them when we are at the store.

Hormel REV #1 Pepperoni Pizza

Walkers Quavers
Walkers Quavers are delicious and they have been around for as long as I can remember. If I see anyone eating Quavers it always makes me fancy a packet and if you are a fan of cheese like me you should like them too. Quavers are technically …
Old London Melba Snacks White Cheddar
Cheddar is not a cheese that I often keep in my refrigerator, but I do not mind tasting it. I do mind however spending nearly five dollars for a cracker that does not have a very satisfying flavor and that describes these crackers In the case of Old London …
2007 St. Clements Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley
I’m not much of a white wine drinker because it’s often too sweet for me, so I asked the wine shop owner to recommend me a good, not-to-sweet white wine. He recommended this one, and I’m definitely a fan.
Although it doesn’t have the delicate notes of citrus or …
Goldilocks Fresh Lumpia

Crispy Minis Delights snack food
I don’t normally try these 100 calorie or 90 calorie snack packs, partially because I prefer to make snacks from scratch and partially because I find them a bit annoying - as if you can’t just enjoy a little snack, the company has to portion control for you. But …
Clover Valley Strawberry Lemonade
I tried Clover Valley Strawberry Lemonade as a addition to my dinner, chilled and over ice. I personally love different flavors combined with lemonade. With this it isn’t no difference.

Baja Beef Chalupas from Taco Bell
I am addicted to Baja Beef Chalupas from Taco Bell. It’s horrible. They have too many calories, and I can never eat just one. The substandard ground beef and fiesta salsa lure me in every time I go to Taco Bell.
In the late 90s, they also …
Happy Harvest Peas
We made a steak dinner last night and planned on having corn on the cob to go with it. However, we only had four ears of corn; not enough for our family. So, my wife made another vegetable to go with it, peas from the brand Happy Harvest.
These were …

Pound Cake
I recently just bought a pound cake at the grocery store for a dollar. It was kind of small but still worth it just for a dollar. That’s cheap compared to a lot of foods now a days. I really liked this cake. I thought I wouldn’t because it …
Blue Bunny King Size Cookies ‘n Cream Ice Cream Bar

Aquelle Lemon flavored mineral water
I have never really been one to buy bottled water as I believe this to be something of a waste, as I am already paying for water to come out of my taps.
While bottled water has never been on any of my shopping lists, I got to taste some …
Salted Egg (Itlog Na Maalat)

Ore-Ida Steak Fries
I decided to make sloppy joes for dinner last night and, since I needed a side dish to go with them, I ended up picking up a bag of Ore-Ida steak fries. I wasn’t impressed with this purchase.
First of all, what kind of fries don’t come in a re-closable …
McCormick California Style Garlic Powder
Anything garlic is normally a winner with me, but I’m not a big fan of McCormick California Style Garlic Powder. This garlic powder comes with parsley and contains no MSG.
