Campbell’s Chunky Soup

Smuckers Uncrustables peanut butter & jelly sandwiches
Smuckers uncrustables have been around for a few years if I remember correctly. When I first saw them I thought they were a completely pointless idea. I was like why would anyone want to spend around $5 on a box of 10 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches when you …
BERRI Brand Mixed Fruit Juice 2.4 Liters
I am not a huge fan of fresh juice, but when it was on sale in the nearest grocery store, I was tempted to purchase a huge bottle. I saw the BERRI brand of Mixed Fruits juice. This came in a huge plastic bottle. This was a 2.4 Liter …
Popcorn Indiana Chip’ins All natural popcorn chips sea salt

Rice Cakes
Rice cakes, when they first came out, used to be dry and flavourless - something like eating paper. Now, rice cakes are no longer so dry, and definitely not flavourless. The savoury tomato & basil rice cakes from Quaker boast of 0 trans fat, 1.5 g fat, and 50 …

Sugar Crisp Cereal
Sugar Crisp was, and probably still is, my favorite cereal as a child. While my sister liked Froot Loops, and they are fantastic, Sugar Crisp just won me over. My sister was never quite as sold on Sugar Crisp, although, I do believe that she is coming around to …
Talenti Gelato in Tahitian Vanilla Bean
I really like the Talenti brand, and I buy a lot of their gelato flavors, despite the high price; however, the Tahitian Vanilla Bean, while a good base for other desserts, is not one of their best flavors.
At about $5 per pint, this is a fairly expensive ice …

Franck 3in1
Lately I go nuts about instant coffee drinks, I really don’t know if that’s because I am just too lazy to prepair a real coffee because it is much easier to prepair an instant one or just because these instant coffees are always more delicious. Yesterday I went to …
Roseland Hot Italian Sausage
I was a bit hesitant to try Roseland Hot Italian Sausage because Italian sausage prices in the grocery stores have really seemed to jump up in price recently. This was selling for about twenty cents under three dollars at ALDI, so it was several dollars cheaper than the Italian …
Snapps Creamy Golden Mushroom Bites
Snapps creamy golden mushroom bites are a snack/appetizer I purchased at super Wal-Mart because it was on sale. I wasn’t familiar with the brand, however, I do like a good mushroom bite. This product was one of two Snapps appetizers/snacks that I purchased.
I’m not going to lie, the mushroom …

My cousin had a street food party yesterday and got a Food Channel cart to set up in her house. Food Channel sells one of the best shawarmas around and has several stalls around the metro. We used to hire the cart a lot for our parties, …
PurAqua Frut Flavored Water Variety Pack
I found this flavored water from PurAqua, and yes, it’s spelled “frut” as opposed to “fruit” on the packaging for some odd reason, to be more refreshing than flavorful. Naturally, it’s going to be refreshing because it’s water, and when it’s enjoyed good and cold, it’s a refreshing, thirst-quencher. …
Yoplait Creamy Harvest Peach Yogurt
My all time favorite creamy yogurt to eat for a healthy snack or breakfast is the Yoplait Creamy Harvest Peach Yogurt. It is almost fat free and has a real yummy creamy peach flavor to it that taste like you are eating a delicious dessert. I not only love …

Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup
Campbell’s is a trusted maker of soups and I have been eating their products since I was a child. As expected, they have also been adapting their products towards more healthy eating trends, which is why they now offer soups with lower calories and lower levels of sodium.

Happy Harvest Kidney Beans
I decided to make chili again last week and, needing some kidney beans to go into it, I ended up running to the store.
Because I didn’t want to spend too much money (chili is a great way to keep the food budget under control because you can make a …
AmicaVedre mayonnaise
Sometimes the cheapest things are the best, well maybe not THE BEST but at lest among the best and they can go handed hand with much cheaper products of the same kind. That’s the case with AmicaVerde . I don’t eat mayonnaise very often, but sometimes I have periods …
TYKU

Nicies Fruit Punch Drink
I was not aware that the brand “Nicies” that makes a popular banana chips her also made drinks until recently, as I was only familiar with their more popular product. When I saw it selling in a small shop my curiosity was increased, and I decided that I was …
Lemon Square Power Pops Cereal Snack Milk Flavor
I admit the first time I get to taste Power Pops I was enthusiastic about it because this is the first time I get to taste hard rice that is sweet. Power Pops is a crispy chewy cereal snack with real butter and milk. It contains 100% cereal goodness …

Haagen-Dazs Pineapple Coconut Ice Cream
The combination of pineapple and coconut is one of my best-loved combinations. I was so excited to see that Haagen-Dazs made it into an ice cream. In my opinion it’s hard to beat fresh, fruity and slightly sour pineapple mixed with creamy and rich coconut.
This ice cream has a …
Lehmann Absinthe
Absinthe is an alcoholic drink made from a mix of mainly wormwood, fennel and anise, amongst other plants. There are many different brands of this drink, but I’m going to talk about the one from Lehmann.
The first thing that called my attention about absinthe is its particular green colour. …
Nature’s Path Organic Chia Plus Coconut Chia Granola Cereal
I purchased a box of Nature’s Path Organic Coconut Chia Granola Cereal from my neighborhood Aldis for $2.79. As a lover of all things crunchy and granola, I was excited to give this granola a try.
The idea of getting whole grains, AlA Omega 3’s, and fiber all in one …
Checkers’ Cheese Fries
If you haven’t tried the Checkers’ cheese fries, then you’re missing out. The fries alone are the best ever, followed by McDonald’s fries. The Checkers’ fries are specially seasoned, and the nacho cheese on top just makes it a nightmare for a health fanatic.
The best thing about ordering up …

Coca Cola Cleans Toilet Bowl Stains
I live in the mountains and my water comes from a well. Over time, I had thick mineral deposits in the bottom of the toilet bowl. It looked horrible. I tried CLR, Rustoleum, Bam, Kaboom, and about every cleaner I could find. Nothing would dissolve …
Lay’s Stax
I thought I’d try these the other day because I felt like eating something crunchy. I tried the cheddar flavour, for no particular reason.

POMEGRANAT JUICE
I am very aware of the differences between pure juices and juices that have additives, colorings, preservatives, etc.. I truly enjoy drinking the pure juices, as they are so much healthier to drink, and so much more cost effective, as I am not paying for ‘junk’ I don’t want …
Stouffer’s Sausage French Bread Pizza
Stouffer’s Sausage French Bread Pizza is not that hot. For one thing, the sausage looks like small pebbles. I do not like sausage that is cut up into super small pieces and then sprinkled on top of the pizza. That is not how I like my sausage pizza. I …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Pizza
This is most certainly not one of Pringles most successful creations, in my opinion. In fact, I would really rate this flavor variety quite low because I did not think of pizza when I tried one of these chips. I know what pizza tastes like because I eat it …

Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites
I started buying Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites Mini Pasta Shells and Meatballs when my store stopped carrying their regular spaghetti and meatballs. I really don’t know why they did that; it really made me an unhappy camper.
Regardless, Chef Boyardee Mini-Bites Mini Pasta Shells and Meatballs aren’t bad. They …

General Mills Golden Grahams Cereal
I always used to love Golden Grahams when I was younger. This was probably one of my favorite cereals, because General Mills took the concept of graham crackers and put them in a cereal. I don’t know of any other cereal company that uses graham crackers in their cereal. …
