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 …

Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi
While on a shopping trip to Target recently I found some Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi. It was on sale for 3.33 for a twelve pack. I knew that I would really like this so I bought a twelve pack. The price was excellent also, so that did …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun
I do not feel that there is anything particularly special about Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun compared with the other honey buns made by other companies that can be found in the grocery store, but I nonetheless enjoyed what was likely my one and only purchase of a Mrs. …
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffin
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffins turned out to be a disappointment. I thought that perhaps these chocolate chip muffins would be a little more moist than the regular calorie counterpart, but these turned out to be just as dry. I do not like dry muffins because …
Hershey’s: Rich Chocolate Special Dark Syrup
Hershey’s: Rich Chocolate Special Dark Syrup is not quite as good as the regular chocolate syrup, but I did not feel as if my money was wasted on this syrup, so that is always a good thing. It really comes down to preference, I suppose. Dark chocolate is something …
Chef Style Maggi Cream of Mushroom Healthy Soup
This is one of my comfort foods. It is so easy to prepare plus the fact that my family loves it and it was good for our health. It is not even difficult to find since most local stores, groceries and malls do sell Maggi products, be it noodles …
Goya Jack Mackerel in Brine
Recently I got the craving to make my grandmother’s old world fishburger recipe, which calls for a can of jack mackerel. However, after looking on the shelves of the two nearest supermarkets for the usual brand I buy, Chicken of the Sea, I couldn’t find any. The spot on …
Bristot Classic Esspresso Coffee
I really can’t do without the coffee in the morning, it is actually the first thing I do when I open my eyes to go and put the moka on the stove to boil. I like to have a lot of coffee at home so that it never happened …
Kraft Stove Top Stuffing
Convenience isn’t everything, especially when it comes to food.
Convenience is important these days, especially with all of the other activities that fill up our time. So, instead of stuffing a chicken and roasting it, I thought that I would try Stove Top stuffing. It’s easy to …
Season’s Choice Italian Vegetable Blend
We made Pork Chops last night for dinner and, to go with it, my wife decided to make the last bag of Season’s Choice vegetables in our freezer, their Italian Blend.
Those vegetables were OK but weren’t as good as other vegetables we have purchased from this particular brand in …
Thorntons 12 Mini Chocolate Brownies
I spotted these Mini Chocolate Brownies in Sainsbury’s and based on the picture of the brownies on the label, I just had to have them as they looked sumptuous. I associate Thorntons with delicious, luxurious chocolate products but I did not know they made brownies available in the …
Amul Ice cream
Amul ice creams are the real ice creams. They are very good in quality and price. These ice creams are not very costly but they are very tasty and yummy. There are many kind of ice creams in the market and I have tried many of …
Smart Balance Omega Peanut Butter
I am an avid bargain hunter. I love shopping at dollar stores (and almost a dollar stores) to see what I can find. I also love chunky or crunchy peanut butter. I’ll eat it on buttered toast for breakfast or have the occasional PBJ sandwich. …
Lasco Tin Mackerel in Chunky Tomato Sauce
While I’m not a huge lover of tinned foods, especially tin fish, I don’t mind the occasional tin mackerel especially if it’s prepared properly and it has a particular texture. Most recently, I’ve discovered that the “Lasco Mackerel Chunky in Tomato Sauce” is one of the brands of tin …
Hilo Coconut Cooking Oil
For years, my parents had searched for a cooking oil that was healthier than the others, and a few years ago they found out that coconut oil was one of the better oils to use. Around that time, we had started buying coconut oil in bulk, and these days …
Kombucha Tea Healthy Home Brew
There are several variations of Kombucha tea, but this review is for the kind you brew at home rather than the kind you purchase at health food stores. Kombucha tea has been around for centuries, but is gaining more and more popularity for its health benefits. The …
Tortellini Four cheeses (BARILLA)
BARILLA, the Italian pasta maker, is probably the most popular among the “big” commercial pasta producers. Some of its success may be attributed to the variety and the sheer ubiquity of their many products. But they wouldn’t be as popular as they are if they weren’t simply good - surely …
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream comes in a one point five quart container for two dollars and forty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. This is an all natural ice cream that’s all good in my book! This ice cream combines two tasty things: chocolate cookies and …
Noel Saltin Crackers
I’ve never really thought of myself as a fan of crackers, especially salty ones, but I have to say that eating Noel’s Saltin Crackers can be quite addictive. I’m enjoyng some right now in fact as I’m writing this, and am forcing myself not to reach into the bag …
Prego Heart Smart Traditional Italian Tomato Sauce
I was clearing up the pantry the other day, and I saw the Prego Heart Smart Traditional Italian Tomato Sauce. As it was already nearing expiry date, I decided to cook a Sunday meal for my family using it. I don’t usually cook, but pasta seemed very …
Del monte tomato sauce
I loved cooking and one of the best ingredients I put in my recipe is Del monte tomato sauce. Del monte tomato sauce is made from 100% fresh tomatoes, which contains lycopene that reduces the risk of heart disease and some cancer.
It is more healthy that other spices, I …
Coco-Choco chrispy cream yogurt
I took this yogurt because I actually think it was stracciatella one, you know those white vanilla ones with chocolate chips, just when I got home I realised it was made of coconuts and not stracciatella, it was a small disappointment I must admit but as I like coconuts, …
Bake & Churn Ice Cream Store
I was thinking of what to put on the dining table for Christmas Eve and day, when I remembered that we use to eat ice cream cake for special occasions when I was younger. Unfortunately however, there are not a lot of shops selling ice cream cake. I thought …
Jell-o Gelatin - Berry Blue
Jell-o Gelatin - Berry Blue is quite the delicious treat to have as a snack or as a dessert! If you like blueberries like me, I think you will find this gelatin to be both a beautiful sight and a totally tasty treat! The blueberry flavor is very rich …
Mrs. Dash Italian Medley Salt-Free Seasoning Blend
I enjoy these seasoning blends because they have a lot flavor to them and don’t contain any sodium, which I think my diet could certainly use much less of. This Italian-style variety has a nice, pleasant, slightly sweet and slightly spicy scent and flavor that seems to me like …
Nestle Coffee Mate Coffee Whithener
My coffee time will never be satisfying without my Nestle Coffee Mate creamer. I know it’s fattening some says. But drinking coffee is the only pleasure I give to myself in between housechores, work and errands. There was a time when I ran out of Coffee …
Yoplait French Vanilla
Along with the Banana Creme and Strawberry varieties produced by Yoplait, the French Vanilla variety is among my favorites. Vanilla, in general, I love, especially in the form of ice cream, but it is very tasty in yogurt too, as this product proves. Every spoonful is rich in French …
Life Savers Pep-O-Mint Mints
I grew up on Life Savers, and I had two favorites — butterscotch and peppermint. I loved both flavors tremendously. As years passed, the Life Savers company began to expand their offerings, and now they have a package of just my favorite peppermints which they call Life …
Coca Cola cherry zero
I really like Coca Cola cherrry zero. This is a product that is a little bit difficult to find but they have it at Target and that is where I can find it. This product is very good and tasty and I think well worth the dollar …
Lipton Iced Tea
I bought one can of Lipton Iced Tea from the US. Although I love juice especially the freshly squeezed ones, I still crave for iced tea sometimes. During days when the sun is extremely hot, it is one of the best treat to drink one glass of iced tea. I …
Real Canadian Natural Spring Water
This is a great tasting water that was made in Canada. I live in Canada so I can say with pride that this brand is far better than some of the bigger company brands such as Nestle, Dasani, and Aberfoyle. Firstly, REAL CANADIAN sells its water for a lower …
Hershey’s Caramel Syrup
I do not know a single person, adult or child, that hasn’t at least heard of Hershey’s chocolate or strawberry flavored syrup. But up until recently, I didn’t know that there was such a thing as Hershey’s Caramel syrup, which is the same as previous strawberry and chocolate syrup, …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate Fudge
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate Fudge is not quite as sensational as the chocolate variety, in my opinion. The chocolate fudge has a more subdued flavor to it that I feel detracts from the flavor of the pudding. I prefer pudding that has an incredibly rich and delicious flavor …
Tang Orange juice
When I go to the supermarket, it has been very hard to choose the right powdered juice drink because the market offers a lot nowadays. And I mean a lot of different brands. But I always go back to my trusted brand which I was also brought up …
The Big Wiener Deal at Wienerschnitzel
I ate the Big Wiener Deal at Wienerschnitzel the other day. This combo is a great deal for the month of May. The deal will be going on until May 31th and then it will be expired. I think the Big Wiener Deal is a very good deal. The …
Betty Crocker Creamy Mashed Potatoes Box Mix
I like Betty Crocker mashed potatoes box mix, but I also have a love and hate relationship with it because even though the finished potatoes are good, I often find myself have to fix the mashed potatoes which has become part of the cooking process at this point.
Betty Crocker has …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Grilled Whiskey Steak
Café Steamers is an ingenious line of frozen food products developed by Healthy Choice. It has a unique product design that steams the food so that certain ingredients stay moist while other ingredients don’t dry out. I’ve tried some of the Café Steamers and was pretty satisfied. …
Mang Tomas Lechon Sauce
Mang Tomas lechon sauce is a very versatile product. Each household probably owns at least a bottle of this. The lechon sauce is blended just right and it comes and regular and hot and spicy variety. This sauce is perfect for cooking and as a dipping sauce. It goes …
Nutrisystem BBQ Sauce
I have recently started the Nutrisystem Advance program for women. One of the foods I had was the BBQ Sauce over Beef, Beans, and Rice. It is 270 calories.
I cooked it in the microwave. It really smelled good. I am usually hungry come …
Cream Chicken Soup from Pizza Hut
Whenever we dine at Pizza Hut we always ordered pan Pizza and soup. Our favorite is Cream Chicken Soup. Pizza Hut has a value meal for the price of $ 2.32. It includes a small size of pan Pizza with soup. The soup is serves first as an appetizer …
Fiber One Oats & Chocolate Chewy Bars
I like having granola bars (or something similar) on hand in our house. This is both because they work great as part of school lunches and because it’s always nice to have something like that within easy reach if I don’t get time to have a big lunch and …
Old El Paso Hard and Soft Taco Dinner Kit
Thanks to a new product I just found, I can now make tacos at home again, which is something that makes me very happy. For years, I have rarely purchased taco kits from the grocery store because I like hard tacos and my husband likes soft ones, so I …

Pudina chutney or Mint Sauce is an accompniment served with traditional Indian food. It is made by grinding mint leaves with salt, pepper, green chilli and lime juice with a little quantity of water. It tastes well when it is both tangy as well spicy in taste …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - White Chocolate
Jell-o Instant Pudding - White Chocolate is a flavor variety that I do not quite care for really, especially compared to the traditional chocolate flavored pudding. The white chocolate does not quite have as rich of a flavor and is thus not as deliciously enjoyable as the chocolate pudding. …
Batchelors Super Noodles
I have enjoyed Batchelors Super Noodles since I was a kid, although I am convinced there is probably not much nutritional value to them. The other thing about them is that they are not very filling and I am sure to be hungry again an hour after having …
Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh - Turkey
Since I’ve had some good luck with other new Oscar Mayer products, when I saw their new Deli Fresh, I decided to give it a try, too. I’m a turkey lover, so selected the oven roasted turkey breast (shaved).
It comes in a rectangular plastic container that is touted …
San Mig Coffee Extra Strong
I love coffee and tea (but mostly coffee). When I have the time, I prepare it myself, brewing it as strong as I can. But I usually do not have the luxury of time, and so I have tried looking for instant coffee that is really strong. I stumbled …
Great Value: Sour Cream & Onion
Great Value: Sour Cream & Onion are just as good as the name brand products. Compared with the Lays and Pringles Sour Cream & Onion varieties, the Walmart Great Value brand stacks up very well in terms of flavor and beats the name brand when it comes to value. …
