Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
I had no plans to buy ice cream when I first entered Tesco, but this Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream caught my eye because of the vibrant packaging and the fact Ben & Jerry’s is a famous name in ice cream. I had picked up the one with …
Sapore vero Fillets of mackerel in Olive Oil
I like Fillets of mackerel but I don’t eat them very often because they are too heavy and sometimes I feel the taste of them in my mouth for hours so I prefer not to eat them very often.
This Fillets of mackerel in Olive Oil come in small golden …
Little Debbie Devil Squares Cakes
I do not like the Little Debbie Devil Squares Cakes as much as I do the Devil Creme Cakes because these square cakes have a slightly hard chocolate exterior where as the creme cakes have a soft exterior. The slightly hard exterior on the square cakes is really hardly …
Fanta soda
When the brand of soda Fanta became popular a couple years ago, I was interested in trying it because I had heard a couple people say that it tasted pretty good. I think it might have come out around the time that D&G, what used to be the major …
Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix
For hot cocoa lovers, Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix with Rich Chocolate Flavor is a winner. Boasting it contains “Natural Antioxidents” (of which I can’t personally attest), perhaps more importantly it has a nice and smooth flavor with miniature marshmallows sprinkled generously throughout. It is 99.9% caffeine free …
Moccona Espresso
I am very fussy about my coffee. Not too strong, not too weak, but just right and Moccona Espresso certainly delivers the goods.
Most coffee tastes bitter to me and leaves an after taste that I find unpleasant, but not Moccona Espresso.
It is a mild, pleasant tasting coffee that …
Cream-O Chocolate Cookies
When I usually work long shifts, I do not have time to sit down and eat a full lunch or meal. It really gets to me and sometimes in the middle of working, my head aches already and I feel that I am running low on sugar and I …
San Marino Tuna Fillet- Spanish Style
The Product
The container is a round gold tin can. The total weight of the product is 180 grams.
This has a signature scent of a Spanish style flavor that is spicy but in a mouthwatering way.
The taste is initially spicy but on the later chew, I could feel the …
Del Monte Fruit to Go - Diced Peaches
For convenience, I prefer food that is individually packaged. It fits my lifestyle, even if sometimes it means it costs a little more. It’s actually more economical because instead of food going to waste, everything is optimized. This is especially true for canned fruits. I …
Grimmway Farms Baby Carrots
I picked up a bag of Grimmway Farms Cut & Peeled Baby Carrots. I was looking for a healthy snack when I was at the grocery store. This is one of the things I found because carrots are great for you. Carrots are very …
Jack Daniels
There are some things that are simply icons. I guess that Jack Daniels falls into that category. It has a —˜Good Ol’ Boy’ stamp that gives it a certain street credibility. It isn’t something that makes people think you’re trying to gain some superiority over them by drinking it. …
hint - Strawberry Kiwi
The Strawberry Kiwi flavored water by hint is something I found to be tasty, although really, I think I could have done without the kiwi. Kiwi is not something that I have ever been able to really enjoy, and I certainly prefer strawberry several times over to the flavor …
Americana Mayonnaise
Earlier on in my life, I wasn’t really a lover of mayonnaise. It was only until recently though that I’ve come to appreciate mayonnaise in a good sandwich. I’ve also realised that not all mayonnaise are as good as others in terms of taste especially after trying quite a …
Pillsbury Grands Frozen Biscuits
Pillsbury Grands Frozen Biscuits are delicious and quite large, too! I have three with my dinner once a week and boy do they ever add the meal! I alternate between these three varieties: Buttermilk, Butter Tastin’ and Flaky Layers. The Buttermilk Grands are so soft and flavorful, the Butter …
Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers
This is a breakfast sandwich that didn’t agree with my stomach. The bits and pieces of sausage in the biscuit were gummy and tasted undercooked and as a result didn’t taste good. When I cook sausage patties on the stove, they certainly don’t come out tasting like this. For …
Tesco Finest Wexford Cheddar and Oregano Roll
I tried this roll, bought from Tesco’s instore bakery section, and it is absolutely beautiful. I could never give up carbs as I love bread too much and I like trying out different kinds. In the instore bakery at Tesco you can just buy rolls individually so …
LifeSavers candy
I like LifeSavers mint candy, it is one of my favorite candy-dish fillers. LifeSavers are available as Wint-o-Green (mint) and Pepp-o-Mint (peppermint); a well-sized 13 oz bag costs $1.98. Each candy is individually wrapped, and each has “LifeSavers” impressed on it. The candies are white, round, with a hole …
Wheat Thins Sundried Tomato & Basil
These Wheat Thins are pleasant to the taste. They don’t offer a real rich flavor, but they’re pleasant to have. There are three mild flavors baked into these Wheat Thins: sun-dried tomatoes, rosemary and basil. The sun-dried tomatoes offer a slight sweetness to the Wheat Thins, while the basil …
Ritz Crackers
Ritz Crackers are just about the only crackers I can think of which are tasty enough to eat on their own. They are small, only two inches in diameter, so I sometimes just pop one or two in my mouth for a quick snack. They are crisp …
Encore Coffee
I like the taste of coffee, but I have a sensitive stomach so I cant drink it very often. I can have about a shot glass worth of coffee before my stomach gets upset. So when I saw the add for the coffee that’s supposed to be …
Dog On It
Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …
Burger King Hashed Browns
This review is going to focus on Burger King Hashed Browns which is part of their current breakfast menu. I had my latest purchase of this food item just this morning, in fact.

Gatorade Thirst Quencher: Watermelon Strawberry
I gave a different flavor of Gatorade Thirst Quencher a try, called Strawberry Watermelon. I have to say after a few other choice flavors this is probably has to be one my top favorite ones. Next to my all time favorite grape flavored one of course.
I was first …
The Better Chip Jalapeno and Sea Salt Tortilla Chips 2 oz snack size
I recently noticed the cafeteria where I work had started to offer more healthy options as side items. Specifically, I found The Better Chip Jalapeno and Sea Salt Tortilla Chips. I love jalapeno flavored chips but until now all that was offered were full fat potato chips. These are …

Baci Perugina White, pralines by Nestle
When it comes to while chocolate I must say that I am not a big fan. Mostly it is too sweet and too buttery. Actually, I think that I have read it somewhere that most connoisseurs do not even consider white chocolate to be chocolate because it does not contain …
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 …

FullBars - Lose Weight
I decided that I would try some of the FullBars that are advertised as weight-loss aids. These bars are really good, and I did feel full, so I hope they are going to be the “magic” that I need to lose some weight. I could taste …
White Pear Arbor Mist
I am not a big drinker, but when I do decide to indulge in something alcoholic, I look for something that is fruity and the taste of alcohol is very little. Arbor Mist has always been my go to drink for Sunday dinners with the family, or when I …

Great Value Wheat Crackers
Great Value is the store brand used by good old Wal-Mart, and they\’re products are usually pretty tasty (in fact often times they are the same stuff you’ll buy in the name brands, just in a different box), so I decided to give the Great Value wheat crackers a …
Steak n’ Shake in Ocala Florida’s Strawberry Milk Shake
The Steak n’ Shake in Ocala Florida on Southwest College Road, is a fairly popular place that offers speedy service, friendly staff and delicious food. And the Strawberry Milk Shake is one that I know I will keep coming back for. It’s important to know, that usually I do …
Andes Cherry Jubilee Thins
Andes Mints are something that I was likely to find during the holidays when I was a child. Every year it seemed like my parents bought a box and kept them in the cupboards for those times when company came over. If they didn’t buy a box, the odds …

Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks sell for two dollars and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Five cheesy breadsticks come in a box. Breadsticks that are filled with cheese aren’t cheap, regardless of what store I go to, but the Cooper’s brand found at ALDI Food Markets is about the …
NY Texas Toast
Take a huge slice of french bread, addd butter, garlic and some parmesan cheese, and you’ll have NY Texas Toast. I really love this bread, it makes a wonderful snack after work. This is also a really great thing to have on hand when you’re cooking an authentic italian …

Hershey’s 100 Calorie Crisp Wafer Bar

Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco
When I hear the word Volcano I think of extremely hot lava that could burn anything before it even touches it, so when I bit into Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for the first time I felt like someone had lied to me. The taco was not hot at all, …
Stouffer’s Corn Soufflé
Stouffer’s Corn Soufflé is not something that is going to appeal to a lot of people, I do not think. Even to people, like me, that have had this before, albeit not from Stouffer’s, might not enjoy this that much. I did not particularly care for this corn soufflé …
Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins
I find these Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins to be rather plain and boring. There is simply not much to them. The muffin cake is alright, although somewhat on the dry side. I prefer my muffins to be quite moist and fresh - that is most certainly when …

Viactiv Calcium Soft Chew
I bought Viactiv Calcium Soft Chew in Chocolate flavor, to be exact, “new improved flavor” which in my opinion does not taste any different. It is still soft and chewy, but as a matter of fact, doesn’t even taste like chocolate at all, tastes more like caramel to be …
