7up Soft Drink
Although I generally don’t find myself choosing 7up as a first or even second option when I’m buying soda, there is still that rare moment over a period of time when I’ll crave one. The reason why I don’t necessarily crave 7up a lot is because first of all, …
Cooley Family Farm
My fiance and I enrolled for this growing season in the Cooley Family Farm’s Harvest Basket program. This program costs $18 a week for the 13 week season, paid upfront at the beginning of the season, and entitles you to a basket full of seasonal vegetables every week.
The …
Cheerios Snack Mix
Cheerios Snack Mix is a nice little snack mix that can satisfy hunger pangs. I like Cheerios the cereal, and was not very sure about Cheerios as a snack mix. Cheerios the cereal is very healthy and many kids grew up on it, so why create a snack mix? …
Aia Wudy Hot dog
I don’t like hot dogs usually because I know they are always made from the worst part of the leftovers of the meat. My Dad was working in the place where they used to produce hot dog so after some stories I’ve heard I didn’t wanna eat hot dogs …
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 …
Papa Murphy’s Philly Cheesesteak Pizza
I’m usually a big Papa Murphy’s Take ‘N Bake fan. But, I have to say I’m not a huge fan of their Philly Cheesesteak Pizza.
The pizza was nothing like the advertisement that enticed me to buy it. There was plenty of cheese, including a cheddar cheese sauce that wasn’t too …
Ligo Luncheon Meat
I was looking for something new for breakfast in a small grocery store when I noticed this Ligo Luncheon Meat. That was really my first time to see such product from Ligo. I was able to buy other products made by Ligo like canned sardines in tomato sauce, mackerel, …
Diet Pepsi
Diet Pepsi is perhaps the worst diet soda on the market. It always tastes flat and looses any carbonation quickly. It tastes like rancid water, not a soft drink.
On the up side, Diet Pepsi has no calories, fat, etc. If you are on a diet or trying to watch …
Bertolli Vegetable Fat Spread with Olive Oil
This is an excellent butter-like spread from Bertolli. I do like the taste of real butter but of course these —˜spread straight from the fridge’ type spreads are convenient but they do not always taste so good. This one really does taste good and it has certain …
Ruffles Potato Chips
“R R R Ruffles Have Ridges!”
That’s been the long-time tagline for Ruffles Potato Chips, and it’s pretty appropriate for this product, which is definitely characterized by thick ridges that make it unique from other potato chips on the market; that is, until some of them also began making chips …

Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup Single Pack Shrimp Flavor
I remember when ramen noodles were referred to a poor’s man meal because only poor people and college students would eat it, and I know I had my college apartment filled to the max with them. They were cheap and good and to this day I still like to eat …
Excelsior All Natural Whole Wheat Biscuits
I love eating whole wheat foods from time to time and “Excelsior ALl Natural Whole Wheat Biscuits” are one of those foods. In fact, ever since my grandmother introduced me to them years ago, I have found a few other reasons to like them since.

McDonald’s Big Mac
There is no denying the fact that these are tasty hamburgers, but they are probably one of the worst things you can order when you go out for fast food.

30 Count Chocolate Bar Variety Pack
My biggest problem with this thirty count variety pack packaged and released by M & M Mars is that it’s very uneven in the different number of chocolate candy bars. By that, I mean, while there’s thirty Snickers bars, there’s only three 3 Musketeers. There’s eight Twix bars but …
Old Orchard Healthy Balance Juices

Samba Corned Beef
I am being particular when it comes to preserved canned foods. It has to meet my quality. When I check on the canned goods, I have to read the expiration date and the external properties of the can. It should not have bend sides, because when you see that …

Twistos Baked Snack Bites Asiago Flavor

Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones
I found this Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones to be a satisfactory treat, although admittedly, I did expect more from this ice cream cone. The vanilla ice cream, for one, just was not as good as it normally is. Generally, Blue Bunny has pretty tasty vanilla …

San Mig Coffee
