Hello! I’m reviewing Wendy’s newest promotions, The Chicken Temptations line.
There’s three varieties: Sweet and Spicy Asian, Bold Buffalo, and Honey Barbecue. The only kind I haven’t tried is the Honey BBQ.
Looks?: The meal consists of about 8-10 “boneless” wings (chicken breast meat), and is filling. Of course it doesn’t …
Milka Mini Snow Balls
If you like Milka chocolate as much as I do than I must recommend you to try Milka Mini Snow Balls because they are just delicious. I adore seasonal products because they always come in nice looking bags and wrappings plus as they are seasonal they are expensive at the …

Bigelow Mint Medley Herb Tea
Inspired by my success with Bigelow Red Raspberry tea (love it!), I decided to try another type of tea of this brand: Bigelow Mint Medley. I bought it at Walmart. The tea comes in a nice, distinctively green, box of 20 tea bags. Mint Medley contains no caffeine, and …
Carnation Instant Breakfast
I have a horrible habit of not eating breakfast because I’m always on the go and sometimes I just don’t want to eat. We constantly hear that breakfast is an important meal that should not be skipped. So, I decided to give this product a try. The …
Great Value Jelly
We go through a lot of jelly in our house, both grape and strawberry. So, we naturally are always looking for the best quality for the best price.
This is why we started buying the Great Value brand.
We weren’t going to do this at first. But, I couldn’t pass up …
Fruit Magic
“5 a day” is what Fruit Magic have for their advertisement. It sticks to the mind like a glue, that we have to eat or drink fruits and veggies everyday to be healthy. Well I used to really enjoy an order from Fruit Magic. I really believe that they …
Tesco Kick Energy Drink
This is the Supermarket Tesco’s version of the brand name version of an Energy Drink. I do sometimes drink the brand name version but it is so expensive compared to the Supermarket ones.
This comes in the same 250ml tin and cost 43p. Sometimes this can be on offer …
Pepsi: Blue Drink
The Pepsi drink called “Blue” was a carbonated beverage that was “invented” by the Pepsi company about five years ago. Prior to inventing the soda they had run ads asking the public to vote on which color of carbonated drink that they would buy and the winner was apparently …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Cheesy Meatball Rigatoni
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Cheesy Meatball Rigatoni is quite a flavorful meal that I enjoy for the most part. About the only thing that I do not very much like about this meal are the meatballs. The meatballs simply are not very tasty. Perhaps it is because I like …
Cloverleaf Chunk Light Tuna
The product is sold in a 170g can. It uses yellow fish tuna marinated in water. I would have to rate this one as an average product. It is not really tasty nor anything special that I would recommend. But I do have to say that I have definitely …
Country Crock Margarine
Product Description: Tub-sized margarine spread that is available at most grocery stores in the dairy/butter section.
What I liked about this product: As is usually the case, my decision to buy this product was based on price and, compared to other brands, this is one of the most affordable ones …
Hilo Value Hot Pepper Sauce
I never really had an interest in putting hot pepper sauce on my food because most of the brands that were bought before now were too hot for me, and I don’t usually like putting a lot of pepper on my food. Therefore, if I absolutely must, I would …
Reggae Style Ginger Beer by JCS
If your a fan of the spicy flavor of the ginger fruit and you like soda then I would recommend the JCS Reggae country style brand Ginger Beer soda. I dont know why it has beer in the title because it is non alcholic but it’s a drink …
Chun King Vegetables and sauce mix

Max’s Bakeshop’s Wheat Bread

Aldi Asia Specialties Thai Green Curry Sauce
Asia Specialties is a range of ethnic food products available at UK branches of the discount supermarket Aldi. The Thai Green Curry Sauce from this range costs 89p for a 350g jar and a Red variety is also available, but in my opinion is not quite as nice as …
Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup
I find Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup cookies to be somewhat average in terms of flavor. For a dollar eighty-nine, they just aren’t quite worth the money. These peanut butter cookies are not all peanut butter, but rather, there are pockets of peanut butter. …
Breakfast Best Pumpkin Spice Waffles
Come the end of September, beginning of October, it’s a happy time for pumpkin lovers! This is the time of the year when foods and drinks get an infusion of pumpkin flavoring. Pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin bread and of course, pumpkin pie, are all common …

Kirkland Signature (BJ’s Brand) Vanilla Soy Milk
I love milk products too much to stop eating them but I was glad this product is lactose free since I’m lactose intolerant. It also states it’s calcium/vitamin enriched & USDA certified organic. I’m not a “health nut” by any means but I was pleasantly surprised by the taste. …

The black fungus mushroom which is dried …
Asda Smart Price Mayonaise
I would say that Mayonaise is 1 of my favourite things to use as a spread or perhaps on my Chips. I don’t tend to eat chips plain and like to have something to dip them in and that’s where this comes in. I suppose this is pretty versatile …
Tootsie Roll Pops
With all that candy out there, you’d think it would be easy to latch onto one favorite forever and ever. But no, there are so many choices a hungry person lusting after some sugar finds themself bewildered. But the choice is simple: Go buy a chocolate Tootsie …
Kroger Brand Sweetened Iced Tea
Usually I opt for Mayfield’s Iced Tea, since I’ve grown accustomed to the flavor. But one day I decided to try the store brand iced tea, just to see how “disgusting” it was-so that I’d have a reason to go back to buying the Mayfield brand. …
Healthy Kitchen Experience

Jack n Jill Cloud 9 Chocolate Bar
And here’s another chocolate I love to eat over and over again. The sweetness of the luscious caramel is so mouth-watering and the peanuts inside the choco coating is real crunchy. And what I am talking about is Cloud 9, it really melts in the mouth.
Cloud 9 is …
Little Bites Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
This quite an odd combination of flavors. Banana and chocolate, together? I have heard and seen people eat bananas dipped in chocolate before, but I have never done so myself. As for these Little Bites Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, I still really cannot say what I think of a …
Albertsons Banana Nut ice cream
This flavor caught my eyes very unexpectedly when I was shopping at Albertsons. And with around a dollar off from regular price, I decided to give Albertsons Banana Nut ice cream a try instead of my usual brands of Breyer’s and Dreyer’s. The experience of tasting this ice cream …

Goya Cream White Chocolate
Goya is a local chocolate brand here in the Philippines. As a child it was one of the brands my mom gave me. I think it’s less popular to the kids of the new generation though. In its effort to reintroduce the brand they produced new variety to …

Hersheys Powdered Cocoa- 8 oz. can
I have tried several other name brands of powered cocoa when making recipes that call for it. Each time, I come back to using Hershey’s Cocoa because of the rich flavor it has. Hershey’s has mastered powered cocoa. With the several other brands I have used, I have not …

Asia Specialties Crispy Noodle Shrimp
My wife did some shopping at our local Aldi the other day and picked up some much needed groceries for our house.
As she was asked to do, she looked for some items that were somewhat different than what we normally would have for dinner. One of those items was …
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 …
Gardenia Wheat Bread
Another wheat bread I was able to try again lately is this Gardenia Wheat Bread. It comes in a transparent plastic packaging with green label and cost P51 pesos. It’s just a half loaf of about 10 slices, I think. Each slice is not really that …
