TastyKake Fall Edition Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts

I like to chew gum on ocassion, in order to keep my jaws busy. I have never stuck to one brand or type of gum and will try anyone of them at least once. The last time I went to buy some gum I was looking for the …
Toblerone chocolate

The coconut pineapple mcfloat has pineapple soda with icecream on …
Banquet Frozen Dinner Turkey with mashed potatoes and peas

I am impressed with this Strawberry Flavour Whip from the Tesco Value range and it only costs a puny six pence for a 38g sachet. I had been craving some Angel Delight but when shopping in Tesco with a friend, she persuaded me to try this ridiculously cheap …
Entenmann’s 8 Rich Frosted Donuts
There really is not anything all that remarkable about Entenmann’s 8 Rich Frosted Donuts. They are simply chocolate frosted donuts with a yellow cake interior. Simple is not necessarily a bad thing if the simple ingredients result in a tasty treat, but in this particular instance, simple is not …

M&Ms has been an institution as far as candy coated chocolates are concerned. Nowadays there are a variety of flavours to choose from. Be it with almonds, peanuts or those weird crispies which I haven’t seen lately.

Your Best Face (YBF) Defend

I was really hesitant to apply it at first knowing that I have no experiences with …
Blue Bunny Chips Galore! Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny Chips Galore! Ice Cream Sandwich is an alright frozen treat that I really thought that I would enjoy more. The chocolate semi-sweet chips were not sweet at all. I know that they are only supposed to be moderately sweet, but they were not even that. They were …

With 5 varieties to choose from, Builders Breakfast, in my own frank opinion …
Zattarans red Beans and rice

Clara Ole Thousand Island Dressing
I love eating fish because it does not have fats and it has health benefits. Salmon can prevent wrinkles and takes care of the heart like no other. But in cooking it, avoid deep frying any food. This would save you from absorbing oil in your system. I usually …
Little Debbie Raisin Creme Pies
Although I enjoy munching on raisins fairly regularly, I do not at all care for these Little Debbie Raisin Creme Pies. The reason I am not at all delighted with this pie is because the raisin flavor is not what I expected to be. I was really very disappointed …
Magnolia Cream Cheese Spread
I was a loyal user of Cheez Whiz when I came to know Magnolia Cream Cheese. During that time I was looking for alternative for Cheez Whiz since it was not available. I choose Magnolia since I haven’t tried it and I find the consistency thick because I opened …
Tofuking Northern Tofu
Since I decided to convert to be a vegetarian having a tofu in almost all of my dishes at home makes my cooking even more appealing most especially that I particularly make lots of dishes that need tofu on it as a good substitute for a red meat or …

OKF COCO Natural Coconut Water

Magnum Double Peanut Butter Ice Cream Bars
I picked up the new Magnum Double Peanut Butter ice cream bars the other day at the store after seeing several adds for it on tv. I am a sucker for anything with peanut butter and chocolate. The cost was $3.99 for a box of 3.
This …
Izze Juice Beverage in Sparkling Grapefruit
This is a drink that I enjoy having once in a while, and I really should drink it more often, because it contains 70% pure fruit juice. It is basically like a grapefruit cocktail, because it is grapefruit juice (along with apple, orange, and other juices) combined with sparkling …
Mammoth Dill
I grew my first Mammoth Dill from seed about two months ago, and it’s finally gone to the flowering and seed stage. It grew to about 3’ tall and a foot wide before beginning to flower, and I’m told that if I cut the flowers off that it will …
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix is not something I will purchase again. The reason is, it just does not taste that much better than the pound cake I purchase already made in the grocery store. Why should I go through the trouble of making my own pound cake from …
The Co-operative Light Soft Cheese
I like to always have a soft cheese spread in my food cupboard so I can get a quick snack when I want to without too much effort. I have it spread on a slightly warmed bagel, or on crackers or Ryvita for example, and I have …
