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. …
Bell’s Whisky

Now I found that these …
Mamee monster snack
Mamee monster - The title alone will create the impression of a terribly unhealthy, but incredibly delicious snack. It is one of the better ‘Made in Malaysia’ snacks, as compared to snacks like ‘Super ring’ (a cheap version of Cheezels) and the like.
Mamee monster is essentially a packet of …
Creamfields Sunflower Light Spread
Creamfields Sunflower Light Spread is not only cheap, but it is low in fat and calories and it also tastes pretty good considering it is not real butter. I would always prefer to have real butter for certain things, such as melted on a baked potato, but I …
King’s Grand Cappucino Chips Ice Cream

So in the …

Zestea - Jasmine Tea Flavored

Olympic Gelee candy
I like pineapple and I usually like all products made with it, except candies sometimes because the pineapple sometimes makes them taste like glue. Fortunately that is not the case with this jelly candy. My sister brought home a bag full of jelly candies a few days a go …
Haagen-Dazs Pineapple Coconut Ice Cream
The combination of pineapple and coconut is one of my best-loved combinations. I was so excited to see that Haagen-Dazs made it into an ice cream. In my opinion it’s hard to beat fresh, fruity and slightly sour pineapple mixed with creamy and rich coconut.
This ice cream has a …
Choco Lava Chocolate Drink
Drinking hot beverage is something we love especially in rainy season or winter season in Western countries. When I was in Shanghai, one of the drinks I ordered in their Starbucks branch was hot chocolate because I did not know any of their drink. It has always been a …
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Entrees - Ham and Cheese Croissant
Previously, I’ve reviewed other varieties of the new Jimmy Dean Breakfast Entrees, and today I’m adding a new one to the list — the Ham and Cheese Croissant. When Jimmy Dean gets a product right, it’s usually dead on right and so yummy. When they get it …
Maggi Magic Sarap All-In-One Seasoning
I never know how to cook until I went abroad to work. I had no choice, it’s either eating out, which is more expensive, or cooking at home. Eating out is not only more expensive, but I have to eat the same food over and over again. So I …
Supportan Drink ( Cappuccino Flavor )
I thought Supportan drink was just another coffee drink but it had something else to offer. One time, somebody gave me one bottle of it and I was so out of it. The packaging and the entire appearance looked like another cold coffee beverage. This is manufactured by the pharmaceutical …
Pizza Hut WingStreet Wedge Fries
I just did another review for Pizza Hut WingStreet Wings, a product I’d just purchased for the first time. I really don’t know why I decided to buy the chicken, but I suspect a part of it was seeing these Pizza Hut WingStreet Wedge Fries advertised on their …
Spitz Sunflower Seeds: Dill Pickle Flavor

We all know how expensive Steak Umms and Quaker Maid are, well I found a really good product, and it’s called Blue Diamond Sandwich Steaks. They are 100% all beef. The Sandwich Steaks come in a 12OZ box, which is 6 steaks. These steaks are just as good as …
Di’Giorno Self Rising Stuff Crust Cheesburger Pizza
Who can resist the tasty combination of sauce, cheese and a variety of toppings on a doughy crust, I know I can’t! And if it wasn’t obvious already I was talking about pizza. Recently I have tried Di’Giorno’s self rising, stuffed crust, cheeseburger pizza! Talking about it alone is …

Each and every state in India has its own unique dishes and variations.
I love to cook a variety of cuisines from all over the …
A and W Root Beer Soda
The A&W food chain has changed a lot over the years of its existence. I must admit I long for the good old days, but that’s not what this review is about. The one thing that this restaurant is primarily known for is its root beer. …
Kroger Bakery - Apple Streusel
The Apple Streusel pie offered only at Kroger and found in the bakery section, is, unfortunately, not quite as good as I had hoped that it would be. The reason I was disappointed with this pie is because it lacked a rich and delicious cinnamon flavor that I could …
Laphroaig Malt Whisky
In Gaelic, the language of the people who once occupied the greater part of the kingdom, —˜whisky’ means —˜the water of life’ and the effect of a good whisky on a glum person can be quite interesting. There are some of us in Scotland who may be considered to …
Life Savers Pep-O-Mint Mints

Jolly Rancher hard candy
Too be honest Jolly Rancher candy sucks and is horrible and the candy sucks, plain and simple the candy is horrible. I don’t like how hard this garbage is because it feels as if it is meant to be impossible to bite and chew this candy which is annoying …
Blue Bell Butter Pecan Half Gallon Ice Cream
Growing up, I remember living off butter pecan ice cream. Well, not really but during the hot summers in the South, my grandma and I would sit on the porch eating mountains of butter pecan ice cream. My grandma is no longer living, but I do make it back …

Udi’s Gluten Free White Bread
It is difficult to find a great tasting gluten free white bread. I was very happy to discover this one. I had been eating a different one for a long time but it was a cheese bread, not the regular white bread. I put off trying Udi’s bread because …
Great Value Jelly
We go through a lot of jelly in our house, both grape and strawberry. So, we naturally are always looking for the best quality for the best price.

We weren’t going to do this at first. But, I couldn’t pass up …
Best Choice Toaster Pastries in Frosted Strawberry

The other day while I was shopping at the Dollar General, I walked down one of their grocery aisles and saw they had only two bags of egg noodles on their shelf. Thinking they must be good if all of the other bags were sold out, I put the …

Pepsi One
Pepsi One is the perfect choice for those of us who like Pepsi and watch our calories intake. I have tried Diet Pepsi and I did not like it. There is a definite taste difference from regular Pepsi that I didn’t appreciate. Diet Pepsi is just not the same, …
Kitchens of India Heat and Eat packs
I find so many supposedly ‘instant’ dishes that can be found in the supermarket are not really instant at all. Some of them you have to fiddle around with cups of milk and spoonfuls of margarine, others take almost an hour in the oven or are just very messy. …
Spaans Lemon Chiffon Sugar-Free Cookies
Guess what? The Holiday Season 2014 is here! (Yipee.)
Your “level of yip and ee” may vary depending on your level of necessary preparedness for the season. Family, fun, presents and treat temptations galore right? We all know the score. I bring that first part up because, as per …
Kroger Raisin Bran
Kroger Raisin Bran contains just as many raisins and just as many crunchy flakes as the name brand Kellogg’s Raisin Bran, plus, the Kroger store brand variety is sold for a lower price. That is why I purchase the Kroger store brand over the name brand. It is just …

comes together and is smooth and …
Kozy Shack Chocolate Pudding
I don’t often buy pre-mixed ready to eat puddings, but I made the exception with Kozy Shack. I was in my local grocery store and came across a cardboard container with four ready mixed, chocolate puddings. The cardboard backing said that these Kozy Shack chocolate puddings only have 60 …
Orville Redenbacher’s Pop Up Bowl
I love Orville Redenbacher’s and I love new gimmicks when it comes to snack foods so I didn’t need any convincing to try the new Pop Up microwavable bowls that came out last year. I was turned on by the thought of less clean up and I thought it …
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 …
