Nestle After Eights Dark Chocolate Mints
These luxurious chocolates have been around for many years and I can remember back in the 1970s our family always had After Eights at Christmas especially. They are individually wrapped, wafer thin dark chocolate squares with a peppermint fondant inside.
These chocolate mints are not at all …
M&Ms Dark Chocolate
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.
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that my all time favourite M&Ms …
Mastroianni Bros - Italian Raisin Bread
Mastroianni Bros - Italian Raisin Bread is a bread that I will not spend money on again. The reason is I did not enjoy it very much. Although I most definitely like raisins, I did not find this bread to be loaded with the tasty, natural candies that I …
OMG! Organic Matcha Powder
Matcha lattes are a big thing now and I believe there are actual caffes dedicated to that drink, which make it in different flavors. At first I was really grossed out by the idea of the green tea with milk, but then I tried it a few times and I …

After a funeral some Sundays ago, my family and I, along with several other people who were there, were invited to stop at the house of one of the children of the deceased for some refreshments. When we got there, they were serving both food and drink and bottled …
Homemade Hidden Valley Ranch
You aren’t going to believe it, but I think I’m the only person on the face of the planet that had never tried this stuff. A co-worker of mine was recently talking about how she has to water it down because it’s too thick for her. I immediately thought, …
Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake
The Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake is something that I found to be mildly satisfying. The reason I use the word mild is simply because I feel this cake could have been better, but I cannot say I was overly disappointed in because I did enjoy it. …
Land Law Fat whip, Peach and Maracuja
I usually don’t eat yogurts and whips because they are not a real meal. They are too little and they has lots of calories. They also just make me hungry even more than i was before. But sometimes I bring them with me when I have lessons all day …
Texas Tea: Austin’s Own Goodflow Honey Green Tea

Entenmann’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Buns
I find Entenmann’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Buns to be a fairly delightful treat to have, especially when the buns have been warmed up in the microwave and are nice and warm. Yum! That is the way to maximize flavor, in my opinion. The raisin flavor is quite prominent and …
Rellenong Bangus
Lately we had a lot of bangus (milkfish) in our house. There are some nice people that keep on selling these bangus on a cheap deal. The bangus sold are even big, just that it isn’t that tasty. For the past few weeks, we didn’t eat anything except dishes …
Tasty Bite Madras Lentils
I’ve been trying my hand at meals that are prepared without meat. One my favorite ways to carry on in with this trend is by eating lentils. They are a simple alternative, inexpensive and very healthy, and can also be prepared in a variety of ways. One day …
Malt-O-Meal Multigrain Cinnamon Spooners
Whole grain wheat cereal certainly isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I know of family and friends that find shredded wheat cereal to be dry and unpleasant in texture. I will say it’s not my favorite kind of cereal, either, but I like it enough to have on occasion. It’s …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice
Minute maid has been around for quite some time. It’s actually a big brand in the States and my dad would actually buy the concentrated type that you put in the freezer.

One of the things we picked up was canned peas. We did this because it is the …
Carte d’Or lemon ice cream

There are many flavours, and one of them is lemon. This lemon …
Breyers Chocolate Chip
Breyers Chocolate Chip is one that I found to be disappointing. The reason I found it to be disappointing is because there really was not a whole lot of chocolate chips decorating the vanilla ice cream. I was hoping that the ice cream would be loaded with rich chocolate …

Mtn Dew Citrus Cherry soda
I tried the Mtn Dew Citrus Cherry flavor of soda. All I can say is—¦YUK! This soda I can honestly say tasted worse to me than nasty cough medicine!

Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace
Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace is not so easy to spell, and even harder to say, but the meal certainly is one that I enjoyed! It is somewhat like a pizza, although it lacks cheese and tomato sauce. The crispy crust is wonderfully flaky. It tastes great, too. Then there …
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. …
Quaker’s Apple Cinnamon Instant Oatmeal Packet
Quaker is known for its variety of breakfast and snack foods that not only promise health but also promise great taste as well. With their box of instant apple cinnamon oatmeal packets, there is no doubt that it has made breakfast very simple, but the flavor is not that …
Blue Bunny BIG Star Bar - Vanilla
Blue Bunny BIG Star Bar - Vanilla is a pretty decent treat that I enjoy having from time to time. I must say, these star bars are indeed quite big! The word “big” appears capitalized on the box for very good reason! These star bars are really quite filling …

Arizona Blueberry White Tea
I’m not normally a person who tries new beverages; especially when it comes to “flavored” teas. I like tea in general but have never been a fan of teas that offer some sort of fruit flavor as well as its natural taste.
However, my wife recently picked up some Blueberry …
Hungry Howie’s Large Pepperoni Specials
I had never had Hungry Howie’s pizza until we moved to Florida. They do have a few of them in Indiana but not near where I was living at; so I had never tried them. I had noticed their outside advertisement on their sign on the first day we …
Target’s Lunch Counter
While running errands one day, I stopped off at Target’s in-store Lunch Counter for a quick meal. I’ve eaten there in the past on occasion, but I hadn’t been there for several months. They used to serve French fries and a tasty chicken breast sandwich, but that is long …

Chowking’s Pork Chao Fan

Bakery Fresh Peanut Butter Cookies
The weather is turning icy around here, so we went to the Dollar General to stock up on things that we might need if we can’t get out of the house for a few days. Of course these essentials included comfort/junk food. Peanut butter cookies is one of the …
Lambertz Exquisit Biscuits, Chockies

Pop Weaver Microwave Popcorn with Butter
In my home popcorn has always been a preferred snack. I love orville Redenbacher’s but wanted to try something different. I purchased the Pop Weaver brand popcorn with butter. I don’t know if the quality of this popcorn is just not up to par, or if it sat on …

Chick-fil-A Waffle Potato Fries
The Waffle Potato Fries at Chick-fil-A are much better than the typical fast food fry, in my opinion. They are superior to McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Whataburger’s fries because unlike the fries served by the aforementioned fast food restaurants, these waffle fries do not taste horrid as soon as they …

Vera Mango Suckers

Kellogg’s Smart Start Healthy Heart Cinnamon Raisin
