Escargot
Ok, what is escargot??? First time i heard it, it seemed to be some kind of cargo service whatever :D (forgive me for passing too many French class :D). I got introduced for the first time with escargot when I was having dinner with my family. My dad ordered …

Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers Chicken Marinara
Who doesn’t love Chicken Marinara - the combination of fried chicken breast with meaty spaghetti swimming in savory marinara sauce? It seems like a travesty to “healthify” this satisfying dish but Healthy Choice has dared to attempt this. I’ve tried a lot of Healthy Choice Café …
Kellogg’s Nutrigrain Bar (Strawberry)
These bars are great, inexpensive snacks. They usually come in boxes of 8, and they are simple fruit filled bars of a cereal. I like strawberry best, but there are other flavours such as Mixed Berry and Apple.
These snacks are not very filling. They are a little bit sweet, …
Cousin’s Meatball Subs
A couple days ago, I was in the mood for a meatball sub. Normally, I get these at Subway but Cousin’s was on the way home so I stopped their instead.
It was OK, but I think I still prefer Subway’s version.
I’m a huge Cousin’s fan, mostly because they do …

Great Value Extra Raisin Bran
I couldn’t find my favorite cereal at my local Wal-Mart. I freaked out, afraid that Wal-Mart had discontinued their Great Value Extra Raisin Bran Cereal.

Cows-a chocolate filled butter toffee candy

These candies are addictive! Once …
Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake
I feel that Entenmann’s Marble Loaf Cake is worthy of being purchased if you are someone that enjoys the flavor combination of vanilla and chocolate. Although there is certainly more vanilla to this marble cake than chocolate, both flavors I feel are still represented well and both flavors come …
Nesquick Strawberry Syrup
I just recently tried the Nesquick syrup in strawberry flavor. It is great on top of ice cream, mixed with milk, or in a milkshake. It has excellent sweet strawberry flavor, and at $2.49/16oz is a good value for it’s size. The syrup is thick- with a consistency thicker …
Cascade Ice Sparkling Water organic Lemon Lime

Strongbow England’s Dry Cider
I find it hard to imagine finding very many words to describe a drink, especially when it is not a high-end, famous wine or single-malt scotch, or something equally as unique or one-of-a-kind. I do enjoy beer, wine and cider, but I
have lately found a truly refreshing, uniquely-flavoured drink …
Richard Childress Vineyards Peach Salsa
When I took a recent trip to North Carolina, I stopped by the Childress Vineyards and picked up a few of their products made with local ingredients. The best of the best was their peach salsa. I have tried some of their other salsa types, but this one is …

Edy’s Grand Vanilla Ice Cream
There were two reasons why I purchased the Edy’s Vanilla ice cream: First, I had previously tried one of their other flavors and I had been quite satisfied; second, I have not had a lot of great experiences with vanilla ice cream and I wanted to give Edy’s a …

Alpro Hazelnut Original
You don’t have to be vegan to love plant-based milk. I love eating oatmeal for breakfast, but I absolutely hate the oatmeal made with milk. The water-based oatmeal also gets boring sometimes and you want something creamier, so that’s when vegan milk comes in handy. Almond milk seems to be …

Kitkat Chunky Chocolate Bar
The Kitkat is such a simple chocolate bar, so when it launched the Kitkat chunky, it was a another great product extension. Always seen as the light chocolate bar, but perhaps some people saw it as not filling enough or even perhaps not manly enough as it was often …

Wye River Eastern Shore Style Oyster Stew Soup

President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal
When I bought the President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal, I thought of it as a “poor man’s Special K”. Personally, I am not big on brand names (whether it’s food or clothing), so I picked up the PC brand instead of Kellogg’s.
The cereal is a mix of dried …
