Izze Sparkling Lime Mint Mojito Beverage
I had the fortunate opportunity to try Izze Sparkling Lime Mint Mojito Beverage, one evening when shopping in my neighborhood ninety-nine cent store. I am no stranger to the Izze beverage, and did not hesitate to place a couple of bottles in my cart.
Izze Sparkling Beverages is blended …
Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix
Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix allows for the creation of average tasting pancakes. The reason I say average is because this pancake mix requires the addition of water opposed to milk. Pancakes that are made using water typically fall apart easier and do not quite taste as good or come …
Doctor Kracker: Klassic 3 Seed Crispbreads
I was introduced to these crispbread by my grandmother when visiting over her house one day. The brand name is what attracted my attention to the box. I’ve heard my fair share of out of the ordinary brand names, some so exotic that you have to look twice. Doctor …
Glutino Gluten Free Cheddar Crackers
These crackers taste as good, if not better, than regular cheddar crackers. That might seem like a bold statement because gluten free foods often don’t taste the same or as great but in this case, it’s the truth.
The box when purchased contains two silver packages of these crackers. The …
Banoffee Pie
Our Christmas holiday meals will not be complete without a special dessert on the table. My relatives will never forgive me if I just pick-up the usual cakes that are sold in commercial bakeshops such as Red Ribbon and Goldilocks. Our dessert has to be unique and extra delicious, …
Tesco Value Spicy Curry Flavour Noodle Snack
This Spicy Curry Flavour Noodle Quick Snack is from Tesco’s Value range and it only cost a mere 32p or thereabouts. Sometimes these really cheap, economy products turn out to be not so bad and sometimes they are so disgusting that it is just false economy to buy …
Mrs. Freshley’s Pecan Danish
I enjoy pecans and pecan-flavored treats, but unfortunately, I cannot say that I enjoy Mrs. Freshley’s Pecan Danish. The reason I cannot say that I enjoy this flavor variety is because the pecan flavor is somewhat disappointing. It is not as strong and scrumptious as I was hoping it …
Miss Milkie White Chocolate bath
I got this Miss Milkie White Chocolate bath for ma birthday 2 years ago and it is still amoust full. I used it once and never again. The thing is that it is too dense and I feel sticky after using it. I was planing to use it during …
Tesco Value Golden Vegetable Savoury Rice
This Golden Vegetable Savoury Rice is from Tesco’s bargain ‘Value’ range which I have been sampling a lot of lately. This was a very low price at only 28 pence for a sachet and I would use one sachet as a side dish to two, or possibly three …
Stouffer’s Extra Cheese French Bread Pizza
Stouffer’s Extra Cheese French Bread Pizza is an enjoyable treat that I think cheese lovers will be satisfied with. I definitely consider myself a cheese lover and I find this pizza to be an enjoyable one to have. I think it is one of the best frozen French bread …
Hershey’s Cookie’s N Cream Milk
Hershey’s Cookies N Cream Milk is de-li-cious! I have tried a lot of breakfast shakes, milkshakes, protein shakes, and other milk products, but none stand a chance against Cookies N Cream. The taste is similar to that of the Hershey Cookies N Cream candy bar. Besides the …
Magnum Ice Cream Almond
I was really intrigued about Magnum ice cream because of the TV commercial that is associated with feeling like a royalty. So I have to buy it and decide it is worth the hype.
I bought mine from the local convenient store and it is Php55 ($1.37USD). Judging from the …
Fleischmann Simply Homemade Baking Mix Italian Herb Flavor
When it comes to baking cakes, cupcakes, cookies and candies I am fine in the kitchen, but when it comes to baking breads and pastries from scratch that is when my flaws show. I came across Fleischmann simply baking homemade baking bread kit while I was on the baking aisle …
Sainsbury’s Basics Chocolate Dessert Mix
This chocolate dessert from Sainsbury’s ‘Basics’ range is supposed to be like a cheap version of Angel Delight and it is only 9 pence per sachet. I frequently buy a cheap version of Angel Delight from Tesco’s ‘Value’ range but as they do not do a chocolate flavour …
Little Debbie Fall Brownies
Although these Little Debbie Fall Brownies are decorated quite attractively, they really are nothing more than a different colored version of Little Debbie’s Cosmic Brownies. These brownies simply have orange food coloring and leaf-shaped colored candies on top. The taste, however, is identical to the cosmic brownies year-round product. …
Lipton Green Tea
Lipton Green Tea is a line of green tea bags which you can seep and prepare. They are in a box, weighing 10 g, and available in local stores.
The green tea sachets are stored in a box. Each sachet had to be torn to prepare a single drink. It …
Arrowhead Mills Organic Corn Grits
I am a big fan of polenta and I often buy it already prepared. It wasn’t until I came across a recipe for homemade polenta for the pressure cooker that I found out how easy and how much better homemade could be. The recipe I had called for corn …
Texas Pete: Red Hot Sauce
This hot sauce is indeed hot! It burns and doesn’t quit burning for a few moments. I like that I don’t need to pour it on, either. A little will do! That being said, it’s not just hot, but flavorful too. The flavor of the sauce reminds me of …
Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties
I’ve been hearing about Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties for years, but I’ve never had them; at least, not to my knowledge. When presented with both a coupon and the item on sale recently, though, I decided to give them a try and see if they lived …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Cheddar Cheese
This variety of Pringles is absolutely terrific if you are a cheddar cheese type of person! I was really surprised by the amount of rich cheddar baked into these crunchy and oil free potato chips! This potato chip will really set one’s taste buds ablaze! I was surprised that …
Creme de Pirouline Artisan Rolled Wafers Chocolate Hazelnut
This European rolled wafers with chocolate hazelnut filling tastes so good. The chocolate is evenly distributed that you really can taste it in each bite. The wafers are perfectly made. It looks like the thin sheets of wafers were rolled to form a stick, making it a bit thick …
Foster Farms Southwestern Chicken Breast Strips
Another something new I’ve tried recently are Foster Farms Southwestern Chicken Breast Strips. Foster Farms is a trusted name for chicken and the price was right for experimenting. I loved the package, which allowed me to see the chicken I was purchasing and which was also a …
Duncan Hines Premium Frosting in Milk Chocolate
Chocolate cake is admittedly one of my guilty pleasures. I don’t allow myself to indulge in it too often but do enjoy it every now and then. Lately I’ve also been into baking and am trying many baking recipes. I bought a chocolate cake mix to try out and …
Cote D’ Or Hazelnut Dark Chocolate
I am fond of eating milk chocolate with nuts and dark chocolate bars with nuts, so when I saw this dark chocolate bar at Duty Free and I noticed I still haven’t tasted this particular brand since it was new to me, I decided to buy it at $5.80 …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Double Chocolate
I find this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Double Chocolate to be superior to the no bake cheesecake line. The reason I find this particular product to be superior is because of the rich and scrumptious double chocolate flavor that comes with this dessert. The chocolate tastes just like …
Ritz Toasted Chips
I recently acquired a coupon for the new toasted chips by Ritz and thought I would give them a try. The chips are essentially very thin crackers that have been toasted and then put in a bag. They are very tasty and are not as fattening as other chip …
Sun Chips - Harvest Cheddar
Sun Chips - Harvest Cheddar are a healthier alternative to potato chips and they are a tasty alternative, too. While this particular variety is not my favorite or even my second favorite of the Sun Chips line, I have purchased these every now and then and I do enjoy …
Carnival Skittles
I walked into a liquor store back in May and for my job was to pick up a bunch of candy for a party pinata. I picked up a package of this limited edition edition of Skittles entitled “Carnival Skittles”. I decided to treat myself to package too and …
Smucker’s Blackberry Syrup
Smucker’s Blackberry Syrup is a fruit syrup topping that can go on such typical breakfast foods as pancakes or waffles. It retails for around two dollars and forty cents, which is pretty high considering the size of the bottle is just twelve ounces. Making blackberry syrup is more expensive, …
Concord Foods Candy Apple Kit
Ever since I attended my first parade candy apples have been my must have treat. My grandma and I would sit along the parade route enjoying our sticky heaven of red sugar coated on a nice red apple. I have always wanted to make them at home, I just never …
Yoplait Original Boston Creme Pie Yogurt
One of the last yogurts that I bought was the “Yoplait Original Boston Creme Pie Yogurt.” While I knew that the Yoplait brand has some interesting yogurt flavours, I actually did not know that their “Boston Creme Pie” flavour existed until I actually saw it in the supermarket. Therefore, …
Quaker Oats oat meal cookies
I’m usually not the type of person who has a big appetite, but when I find a food that actually impresses my taste buds, I binge on it. The actual thought of bingeing on food makes someone on a diet feel very guilty. Well, I found out that there’s …
DiGiorno For One - Pepperoni Pizza
Today I tried DiGiorno For One - Pepperoni Pizza for the first time. I’ve been wanting to try some for a while since the commercials make it the brand sound so wonderful.
One thing I’m noticing now in the microwave trays that food is cooked on is that some …
El Monterey Frozen Beef and Bean Burritos
Before you dive into the rest of this article gentle reader, I have a confession to make.
I recently committed heresy, well a form of heresy for Southeast Texas anyway. If you couldn’t tell from the title, I bought FROZEN Mexican food! I know, I know *blushes* for shame, for …
Great Value Chocolate Chip Cookies
The Great Value Chocolate Chip Cookies come in a pack that contains approximately twenty-five chocolate chip cookies for around one dollar and forty cents. I only purchased a package of these chocolate chip cookies once as I really very much prefer baking the refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough as …
Heinz Tomato Ketchup
I have had hit or miss luck with Heinz Tomato Ketchup. Sometimes, I will purchase a bottle and I will enjoy ketchup that is good and thick and other times, I will purchase a bottle and I will be disappointed with the watery makeup of the ketchup. I positively …
Smucker’s Blueberry Syrup
I wasn’t too pleased with this blueberry syrup. The main reason that I wasn’t very satisfied with this syrup is because it wasn’t as thick as the syrup I’m used to using, and that syrup is made and sold by Log Cabin. This syrup from Smucker’s was more watery …
Nissin Cup noodles
If you want to enjoy some ready to eat food then I think Nissin Cup noodles are really something you will enjoy eating. All we need is to add a cup of water to the noodles and leave it covered for about 3-4 minutes and the noodles are ready …
V soft drink can
V is a carbonated drink that is designed to give you energy. It comes in four different varieties in different colored cans. Even though I’m a bit of a soft drink addict, I can’t say I like V all that much - it’s just ok, but certainly not my …
Perk Poppers chocolate
I knew about this chocolate since a long time but I never tasted it. Perk Poppers are actually a set of oval balls containing biscuit-like fillings coated with chocolate. They are packed in a small bag, which is half the size of a cargo pocket. I ate this chocolate …

Kinky Vodka
I was having a girls night in and we all wanted to try new alcohols and critic them.
I am mixed drinks type of girl and it usually takes me twenty minutes to pick what I want out of the alcohol aisle. I am very picky when it comes …
El Aguila Tortilla Chips
I’ve been avoiding purchasing snacks like chips for years because I don’t think they’re all that good for you with all the artificial flavors and preservatives and of course if I’m dieting there’s the empty calories. However, my boyfriend actually requested chips so I was trying to find some …
Oroweat Country Potato Bread
Oroweat is that brand of bread that has always been a favorite in my household. Not only for its health benefits of being a natural food, with no preservatives, high fructose corn syrup or any other artificial ingredients that plagues most food nowadays. In my opinion it’s the closet to …
Hershey’s Shell Topping
I love Hershey’s Shell Topping. I first came across this product when looking for a chocolate ice cream topping at the grocery store. I love making chocolate covered strawberries, so when I saw the Hershey’s Shell Topping, I thought I might try it with my strawberries. The …
Mars Ice Cream
I know we are approaching winter but I am reviewing the Mars Ice Cream anyway because I buy this in for my freezer all year round, they are so delicious. They are basically small choc ices —“ shorter and fatter than Mars bars —“ with the same milk …
French Fries from Wendy’s
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 …
