Mrs. Freshley’s Bear Claw Danish
This is supposed to be a bear claw? Mrs. Freshley’s Bear Claw Danish really does not taste much like a bear claw in my opinion. There is very little almond flavor to be tasted and enjoyed. There is no raisin flavor either, and raisins are pretty common in bear …
Raw Organic Cacao Nibs from Now Foods
Trying new superfoods is pretty much my hobby. Every 2 months or so I order a bunch of stuff that is said to be really great for you and test it out. To be honest, most of the time the things I order don’t become my staples, but it’s still …

Tampico Tropical Punch
Even though I have seen this drink in shops and supermarkets several times, I never actually bought one and so I never got to taste it for a long time after I saw it for the first time. The only time I actually did get to taste the Tampico …
Tim Horton’s Hot Chocolate Mix
I love Tim Horton’s coffee. It’s less acidic than most coffees I can buy, and it’s always fresh and hot. So, it was no surprise that when I ordered a Tim Horton’s hot chocolate recently, it was also smooth, creamy, delicious. It’s just the right amount of milkiness, sweet …

Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Ozark Black Walnut
I did not care too much for this Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Ozark Black Walnut. The reason I did not care too much for this ice cream is because there did not seem to be very many walnuts. I do not know if I just happened to get …
PowerAde Sports Drink Strawberry Lemonade Flavor
I am not a huge water drinker and usually need to go with something flavored to even have more than a couple sips. Till now I have drank Propel for the most part to get my necessary water intake every day, but the other day I had a …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Peanut Butter Cup
I must say, compared to the double chocolate and Oreo varieties, this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Peanut Butter Cup really turned out to be quite the disappointment, even more so than the no-bake cheesecake varieties. The reason I found this product to be disappointing is because there was …
Liver Spread Spaghetti
I don’t like cooking much. As a matter of fact I don’t even know how to fry or how to cook rice (so much for my womanly duties). I always stay away from the kitchen but I do watch alot of cooking shows both local and international (I especially …

Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Sandwich
Despite Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Sandwich having the word “pretzel” in the name of the product, these sandwiches are not really that crispy or crunchy. The small sandwiches are actually on the soft side. Also, these sandwiches are not too salty either. While that might not sound …

Crystal Light Lemonade
Crystal Light Lemonade comes in a powder form. You buy it and mix it with water. I usually take two canisters at a time. Mixing them with water, they fit perfectly in a gallon jug.
Crystal Light Lemonade is just the right combination of sweet and tart. I don’t like …
Aunt Jemima Butter Rich Syrup
Aunt Jemima Butter Rich Syrup has a distinctive flavor to it that separates it from the original syrup. The main difference is this syrup has a very real butter flavor integrated with the normal syrup flavor. The butter flavor is most certainly rich and real, however, that did not …

This chocolade is produced in Switzerland and like almost all Swiss chocolate this chocolate is perfect and I really enjoy everything about it. I like the shape of it because you just bite it, it would look silly to bite a standard bar of chocolate because it is thin …

Stouffer’s Easy Express Cheesy Garlic Lasagna
Stouffer’s Easy Express Cheesy Garlic Lasagna is a bland meal that I have no real reason to purchase a second time. Although the name on the box of this lasagna sounds quite tasty, the actual product does not do a good job at all of living up to its …
Fairprice Sardines in Tomato Sauce
Fairprice’s Sardines in Tomato Sauce (155gm) is the house brand of Fairprice supermarket. I bought a few tins of Fairprice’s Sardines in Tomato Sauce, the 155gm tins, when there was a promotion.

Mrs. Freshley’s Valentine’s Day: Sweet Treats Pink Snowballs

Focaccio with sun dried tomatoes, basil and fresh mozzarella

Blue Bunny Chips Galore! Ice Cream Sandwich

Dickinson’s Lemon Curd
For those unfamiliar with lemon curd, this sugary spread is typically used on English scones. However, I like having it with many other breakfast foods. The quality of jarred lemon curd seems to run the gamut between abysmal and superb. Dickinson’s is the best I’ve tried so far.
If I’m …
Monster Energy Drinks
OK so a couple of months ago I tried a Monster energy drink that my friend gave me. I think it tasted OK, it was not that great. I thought the flavor was a little nasty but I could still drink it. I think a lot of it had …
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies breakfast cereal

Care Bear Gummy Bears
I recently tried the best gummy bears ever: Care Bear fruit flavored gummy bears. They are really flavorful and fruity as some gummies are quite bland and boring in the taste department. These gummies cost around one dollar per box and you get quite a few little gummy bears in …
Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn - Cheddar Cheese

It is a meat filled …
Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes
The Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes are sold only at Walmart stores as this is a Walmart brand product. For twelve cakes, the price for a box is two dollars. I feel that the price for these cakes is fair considering the quantity and quality. The cakes never taste …
Lontong (Compressed Rice)
Lontong, or in English known as Compressed Rice is tasty! I’m not sure about people from UK and US; whether they have the chance to have a taste of this delicious food. It is actually like rice-form, and I don’t know whether to label it as just rice …
