In n Out French Fries
In n Out French fries first caught my attention with its extra quantity being offered at no extra price than other fast food chains. But later on when I came to know more about their fries, I think In n Out French fries are very different in preparation and …
KETTLE KORN
While doing the standard grocery shopping last week, my husband popped what looked like regular microwavable pop corn into our cart. When we decided to have pop corn, later, we were NOT happy! What we had purchased was not regular popcorn that we normally buy, that is made by …
Nalley’s Garlic, Dill & Onions Petites
Nalley’s “Garlic, Dill & Onions Petites” are a very good small pickle with lots of flavor that are available for a pretty good price. I think they are very similar to their, more expensive French cousins, the cornichon, but are more readily available and usually about half the price.
I think …
Spaans Spiced Windmill Sugar-Free Cookies
Once more, for the third time exploring my near diabetic Papa’s arsenal of store-bought holiday treats, we have Spaans Sugar Free Spiced Windmill cookies next on the buffet line. (For clearer context, see my other Spaans cookie reviews, such as Lemon Chiffon and Ginger Bars.)
So…how does this latest “commandeered …
Jacobs 3in1
Lately I started drinking instant coffee drinks instead of real coffee. I like coffee a lot but i started noticing that it doesn’t make me feel good each time I take one. Actually sometimes I even feel rather strange in my stomach. About 1month ago I went to the …
Strawberry Peanut Butter M&Ms
One day I was shopping at Walmart and I was browsing the candy racks, something I shouldn’t have been doing in the first place but always seem to be doing, and a reddish bag that said M&Ms caught my eye. I picked it up and took a closer …
Halls Cool Mint Flavor Candy
I was suffering from a dry cough until my Supervisor at work gave me Halls to lessen the itchiness on my throat. She said mint flavor candy like Halls can lessen the irritation and itchiness and can make your throat feel refresh because of the mint. It did. In …
Highliner Multigrain Tilapia Breaded Filets
I have long been a fan of Highliner fish products but often find they are too pricey for my budget. Recently, my local supermarket had a half off sale so I bough Highliner Multigrain Tilapia Breaded Filets in a 680gram box for $4.99CDN.
I had never eaten Tilapia fish before, …
Tesco Twin Pack Supersweet Sweetcorn Cobs
If you have never had corn on the cob before then I must rave about how good it tastes, but these particular cobs - the Supersweet ones from Tesco - are particularly good as they are lovely and sweet. Yesterday at the supermarket I actually picked up two …
Nature’s Place 100 Percent Organic Maple Syrup
I love real maple syrup on my pancakes, French toast, in my sweet roasted carrot recipe, baked sweet potatoes and even over vanilla ice cream. The kind of real maple syrup I get is usually from my local maple farm, but lately it has been pricy and with the …
Grandma’s Homestyle Big Cookie Oatmeal Raisin
Although I don’t like oatmeal raisin as much as chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies, this two pack of cookies nonetheless proved to be a flavorful treat. The two cookies that come in a pack are rich with oatmeal flavor and the raisin pieces that decorate the cookie are …
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers turned out to be positively terrible! These were just about the worst ice cream sandwiches that I have ever tried. What made them so bad, exactly? Quite simply, the flavor was horrid! Whether it was the vanilla ice cream or the chocolate cookies that …
Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts
I was disappointed with Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts. I had hoped that the blueberry donut would be as soft and flavorful as the blueberry muffins made by Mrs. Freshley’s, but what I found is a donut that really does not have a whole lot of blueberry flavor to …
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 …
Nicies Fruit Punch Drink
I was not aware that the brand “Nicies” that makes a popular banana chips her also made drinks until recently, as I was only familiar with their more popular product. When I saw it selling in a small shop my curiosity was increased, and I decided that I was …
Aro brown bread (wheat flour)
The Aro brown bread is big size bread and the shape of which is square. This bread is made using the wheat flour. And that is why it is called as brown bread. As I have already mentioned in my earlier reviews that the Aro branded …
Private Selection Amber Honey Apple Spice Upside down cake
Private selection is that gourmet brand Kroger food stores has with the simplistic black labels with beautiful pictures of the product in the background. Its the brand that’s typically more affordable than the name brands you’re used to or trust. With this Amber Honey Apple spice Upside down cake, …
Giovanni Rana, Sfoglaivelo Torellini with Gorgonzola and walnuts
When I saw this product on a discount I took it immediately and I immediately knew what my lunch for that day was going to be. I like gorgonzola and I like walnuts so I was expecting a very delicious and delicate although intensive taste. Well, I guess sometimes …
Garden Banana chips
The garden ready to eat banana chips is another interesting recipe or the food by the Garden Company. These are the lite and crispy chips made using very tender bananas. These bananas are sprinkled with some salt and some tastemaker and these chips give very good taste …
Stouffer’s Pork Cutlet
Stouffer’s Pork Cutlet would be pretty bland if not for the toppings that are found on the pork cutlet. The pork cutlet itself is really pretty tasteless and dull, although it is fairly tender, so at least that is a plus. The toppings that I am referring to is …
Lay’s chili potato chips
Whenever I go to park or beach or watch movie, I definitely purchase Lay’s potato chips. Because they are spicy and tasty. There are various flavors but I like chili flavor very much. Sometimes at home I take these chips along with tea. They are good evening time snacks. …
Fritos: Southwest Enchilada Blackbean Dip
Fritos is that brand that many commonly know for their corn chips, and bean dips. I’ve always personally liked getting the original bean dip, served with tortilla chips, or Doritos. With all that being said, I gave one of the different flavors of bean dip a try, which was the …
Gropper, Strawberry Yogurt
I don’t like to eat yogurts very much as they just make me hungry so I eat them and I have to eat some other things like bread after. So when I eat the yogurt I eat twice and this is very bad thing. That’s why I don’t even …
Oscar Mayer Bun-length Premium Beef Franks
When the grocery store was out of my usual Ball Park beef franks this week, I decided to purchase Oscar Mayer Bun-length Premium Beef Franks. I didn’t even know that Oscar Mayer made a bun-length hot dog, so that was a pleasant surprise. Of course, I was …
Eatons Original Jamaican Jerk Tomato Ketchup
When I saw the unopened bottle of Eaton’s Original Jamaican Jerk Tomato Ketchup in the pantry at home, I was very eager to try it since I had never tried jerk tomato ketchup, and the ketchup sounded like it would have an interesting taste. Well, sad to say when …
Al Haaq’s Potato Salad
I absolutely love potato salad and when I started working at my current job all the workers and even the boos kept on talking about Al Haaq’s BBQ food. I put it off for a long time but one evening I finally gave in and bought a box of …
Selecta Ice Cream Take Two!
For sultry days, ice cream is definitely a treat. But, whatever the weather is, I wouldn’t say no for an ice cream. Despite my liking for this cold and yummy treat, I prefer to only indulge in it every now and then. So when my occasional craving strikes, I …
Panera Chipotle Chicken Signature Sandwich
What attracted me to try this sandwich was not the chicken, or the applewood-smoked bacon, or the smoked cheddar, or even Panera’s tomato basil loaf bread. It was the ancho chipotle spread, which is a creamy, spicy and smoky spread that’s supposed to meld the components of the …
Aunt Jemima Ham & Egg Scramble
Aunt Jemima Ham & Egg Scramble is a frozen breakfast meal that is both good and bad. How can it be both? Well, because the ham is fairly good, but the eggs are most certainly bad. The ham has a relatively good flavor to it, although admittedly it is …
Dairy Queen Corn Dogs
Since I was a kid, I loved corn dogs. They were a favorite taste and a different way of eating hot dogs, only they never have felt like hot dogs to me. I remember eating that at the state fair. That’s where they were the best. …
Caribas Cassava Chips
I like most types of chips, from banana chips to plantain chips, corn chips and even potato chips. However, one thing that has caught my attention recently is Cassava chips. I started seeing packs of them being sold as soon as the recession started, since for some reason, bananas …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Bordeaux Cherry Chocolate
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Bordeaux Cherry Chocolate is a fairly enjoyable flavor combination that I like to have every five or six months. The reason I like this ice cream is because it successfully combines both dark cherries and dark chocolate. The resulting combination is really a quite …
Nissin Cup Noodles
Nissin Cup noodles are rally one of the best instant noodles in the market; a small cup is about 7 pesos more than the packed instant noodles; at least I don’t have to look for a container where I can cook the noodles with. Nissin Cup Noodles have chicken …
Nestle Butterfinger Singles
Yesterday I was in the candy lane at Walmart, trying to decided what type of candy I wanted. There were some of my favorites, Hersey Kisses, and Reese’s Peanut Butter cups. Well, I don’t do this often, but yesterday I did. I went out on a limb and bought …
On-Cor Sliced Turkey Dinner
I wanted something a bit different for dinner last night but didn’t want to spend a fortune. So, I once again headed to one of the local grocery stores and, avoiding the pizza section, looked in the freezer section.
I ended up bringing home a sliced turkey dinner from the …
Rolly pop strawberry
I’ve already tastes Rolly pop strawberry of peach and raspberry and I must say that I really liked them because they have very natural taste although they are rather cheap, much cheaper than Chupa Chups but in my opinion they are much better than Chupa Chups.
Rolly pop strawberry comes …
Kellogg’s Eggo Maple Syrup Cereal
I did not care too much for this cereal. I did not find the maple syrup flavor to be all that rich or delicious. It certainly did exist, but the taste was not as great as I had hoped it would be. Frankly, I would prefer to eat an …
Doral Full Flavor 100s Cigarettes
Since beginning my smoking habit three years ago, Dorals have been my brand of choice. It began originally because my roommate smoked them and I wanted to be able to bum from her without sacrificing my preference. They were also the least-trashy brand of the trashy brands, and were …
Terra Sweets & Carrots
Terra Sweets & Carrots are potato chips, although they certainly represent something very different from the typical potato chip. For one thing, these chips somehow manage to hold a full and compete serving of vegetables. Now I am skeptical, especially since potato chips in general are, well, a junk …
Ginger Tea
When there are days that I find myself having bits of constipation or unable to break wind, I would opt for Ginger Tea. This is one of the best solutions ever and do not ever take for granted the best usage of Ginger Tea.
Yes, the taste is not …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Chocolate Chunk Cookie
I must say, I do not care for Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Chocolate Chunk Cookie as much as I do for the other premium chocolate varieties made by Blue Bunny. The reason is I do not like the chocolate chunks used in this ice cream. It is not …
Wilson’s Cherry Tomatoes
I like making salads to go with dinner but it’s hard to find quality tomatoes around here; unless you pay a fortune at the farmer’s market.
That’s why I was pleasantly surprised by the Wilson’s brand of Cherry Tomatoes I bought the other day.
My biggest problem with tomatoes is they …
Kissables candy
Hershey’s new Kissables candies are just adorable, if you ask me. They are like miniature, colored Hershey’s Kisses with some personality and bling to them! They are a candy-coated chocolate product that live up to their cute disposition, too! They’re tasty and just by eating a …
Argentina Corned Beef
I’ve first seen this Argentina Corned Beef in a TV commercial, and that made a big impression to me of the product. I first tried it with the small can they have in stores and started liking it. From then on, it became the brand I …
Special K Cereal
I am on a quest to lose weight. So is every other woman that I have talked to, we all want the same thing, to look like we did twenty years ago. Well it isn’t going to happen but there are ways to lose some …
Coke Zero
I do not really enjoy drinking softdrinks or sodas as much as others may have. I’d say I do drink once in a while when I am out on a dinner or lunch with friends. But most of the time I would still be caught drinking iced teas or …
Trek Cocoa Brownie Wholefood Energy Bar
I have recently discovered these Trek bars in Sainsbury’s and for me, they have been a good find considering my lifestyle. To describe them, they are oblong brownies made with cocoa and are about 5.5 inches by 2.5 inches in size. They come in white packet with …
Great Value: Steamable Broccoli & Cauliflower
Great Value: Steamable Broccoli & Cauliflower is a variety of frozen vegetables that I likely will not purchase again. I have been trying to develop a taste for cauliflower, but I have not endured much success and probably never will despite my desire to like it. I thought that …
