Great Value Vegetable Beef Condensed Soup
This soup didn’t sit well with me. I’m sure it was due to the chunks of beef. They were kind of flavorless and not so tender, either. They required quite a lot of chewing and when I was chewing the meat, I wasn’t really enjoying it because the flavor …

Pringles Restaurant Cravers Mozzarella Sticks and Marinara

Michelina’s Chili-Mac frozen dinner

Three Barrels French Brandy
One of the first drinks that could be termed —˜spirits’ in present-day terms was —˜cognac’. Now the French lay claim to many inventions and they have every right to do so. The first moving film was made by a Frenchman (strangely enough, it was filmed in a front garden …
Little Debbie Easter Puffs
I am not all that crazy about Little Debbie Easter Puffs, although I would be if they would just remove one thing from the puffs. These puffs have chocolate on the inside and marshmallow on the outside and there is also a white icing coated beneath the marshmallow. There …
