When I was in high school, I started becoming concern with my health and diverting attention to healthy foods. With the help of my school, which started banishing junk foods in the canteen, I gave up eating junk foods. I would rather nimble bread or popcorn when watching TV. …

I went to the store today looking for something sweet and what caught my eye was ice cream fridge, and discounts, of course. I saw this big 1kg ice cream by Algida was on an almost 50% discount so I bought it. There were four different flavors in the container …

Eclipse Peppermint Gum is just okay, nothing fancy about it and nothing worth bragging about to you guys. I am a big gum chewer, and I enjoy many of the sugarless brands, but not this one. I mean, if there is nothing available, I will chew it, …

I have been a Hellman’s Real Mayo user for years and was happy to participate in a campaign with Bzzagent.com whereby you try out products and then spread buzz about those products. The buzz should be honest and if you dislike a product, they want to know about …

As a convenience, M & M meat shops are pretty good. A little bit on the expensive side, but you definitely get what you pay for, type of thing. The latest thing I have tried is the Bumbleberry Blossoms, which are individual little pies. They’re really cute - shaped …

I tried a 300g tub of this Houmous from Lidl for only 99p. This Meadowfresh brand seems to be Lidl’s own brand judging from the label. This is a good price for such a large tub and I was looking forward to getting home and dunking some …

Hillshire Farm Deli Select Premium Hearty Slices - Hardwood Smoked Turkey Breast is one of the latest additions to the Deli Select line of deli meats available in stores. I like this particular line. I’ve now tried several Deli Select varieties and have enjoyed all of them to …

The Mueller’s brand has always been a must-have when it came to various pastas. I especially love their elbow macaroni because I’m always making macaroni and cheese for big Sunday dinners.
The Mueller’s elbow macaroni comes in two sizes: The regular box and the family size box. I usually buy …

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 …

If you are looking to beef up your diet with some good veggies, it’s a good idea to seek out frozen vegetables. They are filled with vitamins and minerals that don’t seem to seep out until after they are cooked too much. In fact, frozen veggies …

So, I was at my mother’s house the other day and she and my sister were discussing the New McDonald’s Frappe drinks. Apparently they received free coupons in the mail to try them with. Immediately I thought how unfair, I didn’t receive any free coupons. Low …

These miniature Cheeto-type snacks were my baby’s first finger foods. I was worried at first because of choking issues but that went away fairly quickly. He seemed to really enjoy these and would suck on them at first, until he got the hang of chewing. They resemble short little …

These Keebler Fudge Striped cookies are the 100 calorie packs. Pretty good I’d have to say taste wise. Not my favorite cookie or sweet treat to eat out there but it can definently satisfy me. The cookies have an interesting taste that do taste pretty good if you have …

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 …

Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill is a sandwich that is, admittedly, huge. The large chicken breast will really make your eyes go wide! Unfortunately, I just did not care for this sandwich too much because I am not a great big fan of grilled chicken. I much prefer the …

I have reviewed Bigelow Red Raspberry Herbal Tea here before, and I rated it 10 out of 10. However, I have recently noticed that the quality of this product has changed, so I have decided to write another review that will reflect these changes.

There are big and small evils in this world. One of the small but unavoidable evils are Dill Pickles In Sandwiches. I hate dill pickles to begin with, and I especially detest them in sandwiches. They taste sour. They make my face twist. They also have this wicked tendency …

During these hard economic times, one of the best ways to save money is by watching how much you spend at the grocery store. I have recently started buying more generic products. Though some are very good, others are just terrible and down right inedible. I do, however, love …

I have been to numerous McDonald’s branches, from Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and many more but I could not find anything close to our homegrown choices. I had tried eating at Singapore when I happen to stop by a mall and the nearest fast food was McDonald’s. It is …

In the quest for healthier snack foods, many companies have created new variations of their traditional more unhealthy food products. Such is the case with Lays which came out with a baked potato chip line several years back. I really wanted to like the Lays Original Regular …

I’m a snack person: There are times when I’ll make a snack from scratch and there are times when I’ll seek out a premade snack. I wasn’t introduced to the Breakstone’s cottage doubles until I was in my third or fourth year of high school. To this day, it’s …

I love candles. They smell so good and relax me. I especially love food smelling candles. I love this one by Kathy Ireland. You can find these at Wal Green’s and probably Wal Mart. It looks like it’s made for the kitchen; it comes in a long-ish jar and …

I don’t go into Panera’s that often, but every once in a while it is relaxing to sit in there and have an unusual drink. The Iced Chai Tea Latte is my favorite drink from Panera’s, so whenever I go there and I don’t know what else to get, …

I haven’t had Hamburger Helper in years and wasn’t really a fan of it when I was a kid. However, I saw that they had a brand new Hamburger Helper that you could heat in the microwave, and I thought that I should give it a try because maybe …

The Edwards Hersey’s chocolate cream pie is the second of the two Edwards’ pies I had the opportunity to taste. I knew that the Hersey’s chocolate cream pie would be good because they resemble the pies I’ve order from Burger King.
The Edwards Hersey’s chocolate cream pie came the exact …

Good Sense Roasted & Salted Sunflower Nuts come in a resealable plastic bag. I bought a 10 oz bag for something like $1.38, which I thought was a good price. The nuts come already peeled, so you won’t have to worry about that (although I know some people who …

Sometimes there really is an advantage to buying at a club store or some place where they sell big packages of items. I love Oreo cookies. The cheapest I can get these now is on sale for $2.50 for an 18 ounce package. However, those $2.50 …

Chick-fil-A Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel is one of the few menu items from the Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant that I have actually been disappointed with and have no desire to purchase again. The reason I was disappointed with this sandwich is because I did not think that the …

I have loved banana chips ever since I was a little girl. However, the thing I didn’t like about especially the Chippies brand which people would buy for me sometimes was that the chips tended to be a bit crude and tough. SO they tasted alright, but it was …

I mentioned in another review that I ordered pasta from Pizza Hut this past weekend. Along with lasagna, I ended up purchasing some of their chicken Alfredo (they had a 2-for-one sale going on).
I wasn’t a huge fan of their lasagna (which is normally my favorite food), but this …

I don’t really go to Starbucks anymore, but when I did I was always into their dark roasts like Sumatra or Italian roast. I haven’t had instant coffee in even longer, because it isn’t the best tasting coffee usually. Instant is something I felt I had moved on from. …

I’ve tried a great many TV dinners because I need some very quick lunch options, so when I was in my local grocery store last week and saw Banquet had a new pork patty meal I had to try it. It’s the usual small portion of meat and gravy, with …

After seeing another one of her other cakes, I wanted to try this one. Though, I’m not crazy about lemon flavored food items, this cake actually turned out to be the best. The frosting can be a little sweet for some but for me it was just fine. However, …

The Asian Noodle Stir Fry is not one of my favorite dishes by Amy’s Meals. The portion is to small and it does not fill me up. To me this makes it a bad meal because it is 300 calories. I do not like that because I would …

Chex Mix Select Snack Mix Dark Chocolate comes in a five point five ounce bag and sells for two dollars and seventy-nine cents a bag. I personally think the price on this snack mix is too high even though I did find the snack mix to be relatively enjoyable …

Hormel Real Crumbled Bacon Bits is a product I’ve been using for the last few years since it first came out. As always, Hormel is one of my trusted brands, so when they come out with something new that I’m in need of, I’m not hesitant to give …

I am not a cigar smoker who has the —˜packet habit’. That term may not mean anything to you, but it’s a symptom of cigarette smokers’ behaviour. They have that little packet out of their pocket with great regularity and out comes another coffin nail. Cigar smokers tend to …

I saw an item on the menu at taco bell. The item was called the Cheesy nachos. I figured with the word cheesy, they have to be at least somewhat good. I was wrong completely. When I got the nachos, it wasn’t even nachos. It was some tortilla chips …

Last week, I bought a trial 18 oz jar of Great Value Apricot & Pineapple preserves. Today we have finished it, and it is already on our grocery list for the next trip to the store. Yes, we all loved it. I am not particularly fond of apricot, but …

This review is of the Spicy Tomato & Sweet Onion variety of Dolmio’s Taste of Summer Stir-In pasta sauce. This is absolutely delicious and low calorie too at only 83 calories in half the tub, which is their recommended portion per person. I find that only a …

Today I ate lunch at Wendy’s Old Fashioned Hamburger Restaurant and my lunch included French fries. I’ve always loved French fries so eating at a fast food restaurant that serves them is a plus. While not the absolute best French fries around (McDonald’s is the best tasting), the ones …

My husband and I decided to try a low salt, low fat diet so I could lose my baby weight, as well as lower my blood pressure, which was high from my pregnancy. I always find myself in need of a mid afternoon snack, so my blood sugar doesn’t …

I find Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup cookies to be somewhat average in terms of flavor. For a dollar eighty-nine, they just aren’t quite worth the money. These peanut butter cookies are not all peanut butter, but rather, there are pockets of peanut butter. …
