Preparing food is not an easy job because it needs time and skill, for people on the go like me, I’m too busy to prepare foods so I try different instant foods that will satisfy me. I already tried cereals, oatmeal, bread and spread and instant noodles, and as …

Stouffer’s Chicken à la King is meal that is fairly filling and also fairly tasty, too. The all white pieces of chicken found in this meal are quite good and authentic in flavor. With the chicken are mushrooms, onions, celery, peas, white rice and a creamy sauce. That is …

My family and I have made an effort to save money at the grocery store. So, I recently decided to try a generic version of our favorite peanuts. We usually buy the Planter’s brand, but it can be so expensive if it is not on sale. So, I purchased …

It is Christmastime and here in the Philippines that means that all our relatives from other countries are coming home and bringing with them a little bit of wherever they came from, which we call pasalubong. This year, one of our relatives brought home Donckels Belgian Truffles from the …

I started buying these a while back because I wanted to have options that were quick & simple but that were not unhealthy. As a busy student & part time worker, I don’t have time sometimes to prepare a meal so these are really helpful for on the go …

Rold Gold Pretzel rods are one of my favorite of the long (about 7 or 8 inches long) pretzel sticks that were traditional in my childhood years. These are not the little, thin pretzel sticks; these are the longer thicker sticks.
In terms of taste, I really like the …

Just a few weeks ago, I discovered that there are Wrigley’s Doublemint sugarfree mints in canisters available at the grocery store I frequent, Shopwise —“ Pasong Tamo corner Vito Cruz Streets, Makati City.
Each 8.4 oz. canister contains 35 mints and costs P 78.50. This is quite expensive for mints …

What can I say about chips. There are so many brands and flavors to choose from on the store shelves today. Everybody’s tastebuds are different. I personally go for spicy chips. Well my daughter spends more time in the snack isle, than I do. She always brings me …

I adore Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies. They were recommended to me about twenty years ago, and I was very happy to get my first bag. Pepperidge Farm is a quality brand, anyway, but I just hadn’t ever had any of their cookies until a friend suggested these. …

Creamed tomato soup is my absolute favourite type of soup. Tomato tastes too tart for me without the cream, but with the cream to smooth out that lovely flavour, I just love it. I tried out this one from Morrisons own brand and the fact that it …

I do not think I have ever tasted worse macaroni and cheese than the boxed Pasta Roni Shells and White Cheddar. This stuff is positively terrible in both taste and texture. Let me first start with the texture because that is something that really made me just want to …

The Great Value Taco Shells come twelve to a pack for one dollar at Walmart. They are yellow corn taco shells and I think they taste as good and fresh as the taco shells sold under the name brands. On a couple of occasions, I’ve purchased these taco shells …

I love Oreos and here in my country they have a multitude of package sizes starting from small packages that contain only four cookies in them (which are the ones I am writing about) to the large packages which contains about 3 rows of these delicious morsels.
I decided to …

Carl’s Jr. isn’t located all over the United States, but it is a large presence on the west coast and has been for many years. Whereas McDonald’s was always your basic fried hamburger and then Burger King became the broil king, Carl’s Jr.’s niche was charbroiled burgers. …

Continuing on with my holiday-season-stealing of my folks store-bought cookie arsenal (see my previous post on Spaans Lemon Chiffon cookies for more context) next up, Spaans Ginger Bars Sugar Free Cookies.
On the plus side once again, as apparently customary with Spaans’ packaging, you get a whole 10 oz tub …

I’m always on the look out for new sweet treats to try. We decided to forgo trick or treating for our little one this year and decided simply to buy her candy instead, but we wanted to find something a little bit different, and what I discovered a Marshmallow …

A quality wall’s is a very good company which is popular for its products. This company mainly produces the different kinds of ice creams. Recently there is an ice cream introduced in the market for this hot summer by quality walls. The name of that ice …

This is a snack that doesn’t deliver essential vitamins or nutrients to the body, but it’s a snack that won’t do much damage at all to the body, either, since there’s no fat of any type and no cholesterol either. It’s also a simple snack. It’s both sweet as …

Recently, I had a similar pasta meal that I just loved to pieces so when I saw Marie Callender’s Three Cheese Stuffed Rigatoni & Chicken, I decided to give it a try as well and see if it was as good, or at least close.
This product consists of ricotta, …

I really like this popcorn! It is my favorite of all the different kinds and brands I’ve tried. The only negative I see about it at all is that it’s a little greasy, but most popcorn’s I’ve tried have been.
It has just the right amount of butter on …

I was a bit leery about trying this particular meal, as I’d never had Chicken ala King before. I’ve been told that it’s very similar to the filling that is found in chicken pot pies. But the picture on the cover of the box didn’t …

Metromint - Lemonmint Water is a delicious blend of lemon and mint flavored water. The flavored water is slightly tangy and most certainly refreshing. Mint and lemon work surprisingly well together and the resulting creation is pretty pleasant! Each sip of this flavored water excites my taste buds and …

We purchased another box of Rite Bite nutrition bar but this time it was assorted in flavor and I get to taste for the first time the Fruity Choco flavor which is also another stellar from Rite Bite.
Rite Bite has a lot of varieties to offer for a snack …

With the autoimmune disease I have I tend to lack energy and when I like energy, my immune system becomes weaker. One of the ways I help keep my energy levels up and my immune system healthy is with the Natures Plus Chocolate Spirutein Shake. I love this shake …

Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix produces bars that I am not too, too crazy about. I mean, the lime bars are alright, but I probably will not purchase these bars again for a good long while, if ever again. I will say though that there are some definite positives …

Even though I’m a little wary of eating too much processed meat these days, one thing I like even more than pork bacon is turkey bacon, and so I was quite eager to try the “Butterball Everyday Turkey Bacon” even though it was the first time that we were …

In my house, finding cheap side dishes that give us both quality and quantity is a must. Knorr’s newest product, Sides Plus Veggies, fits this category perfectly.
For only $1.50 at Wal-mart, the Sides Plus Veggies gives us plenty of food for our money. One pack is enough for our …

I started eating Rice a Roni a few years ago while I was in college. I recently found the whole grain version at the store and purchased a box. The whole grain version is really great tasting, and makes a nice side item with any meal. I have been …

This is a delicious Italian Side from Knorr! It’s got this very rich sauce that has a great triple flavor to it: the sauce has a mixture of lemon, garlic and butter! Each of the three flavors really stand out and complement one another pretty well. The garlic seasoning …

I gave a different flavor of Gatorade Thirst Quencher a try, called Strawberry Watermelon. I have to say after a few other choice flavors this is probably has to be one my top favorite ones. Next to my all time favorite grape flavored one of course.
I was first …

I recently acquired a coupon for the new toasted chips by Ritz and thought I would give them a try. The chips are essentially very thin crackers that have been toasted and then put in a bag. They are very tasty and are not as fattening as other chip …

After trying out Kopoki Kopiccino, Nescafe released their own instant version of Cappuccino. After green tea, I am always delighted to see varieties of coffees in the supermarket.

Safeway Diet Orange flavored soda sucks to put it lightly! I was really hoping for a better tasting product from this company, because I have had good luck with some of their other brand products. This soda is just plain yuchy! There is really nothing good …

The other day at the supermarket I was shopping and saw a new product on the shelves in the drinks aisle. It was a Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Apple Juice by a company named Eva. They had a few other flavours available but I decided to try this flavour first.
I got …

I love eating strawberry shortcake, and even though I don’t know how to make the cake from scratch, I do know how to substitute one for a store bought cake. My main cake of choice: Sara Lee butter pound cake. People don’t really use pound cakes for strawberry shortcake, …

I recently bought a bottle of McCormick’s Irish Cream for around twenty dollars. For those who are looking for a nice, cheap bottle to sip on, this bottle will certainly do the trick. It is always hard to review an article because you can never review simply for the …

One of my roommates in college really loved the chewy sweetarts but she especially loved the sour ones. I never really liked sour candy and the smell alone was enough to drive me crazy. I never really liked the candy at all, but I was kind of intrigued when …

There is nothing like waking up in the morning to a home cooked breakfast , but who has the time to cook one from scratch. I absolutely love Great Value products , because they taste homemade and you can cook them in minutes. One of my favorite foods they …

In the last couple of months I have been trying to decrease my consumption of soda and increase my consumption of water. Unfortunately, however, I do not like the taste of plain water very much so my attempts have not been as successful as I had hoped. …

I’ve been a pretty loyal user of Orville Redenbacher’s microwave popcorn for years so just prepared a bag of their newest product — Orville Redenbacher’s Natural Popcorn. Per the bag, it has a reduced cooking time. Other flavors are also available, but I’ve only had the natural …

I’m not a complete stranger to the brand So Delicious. I was introduced to it by Aunt when she was visiting one summer, and she brought some of their products. She’s a real health nut and tends to stay away from dairy products. She’s not allergic but she tends …

I am a fan of pretzels and jalapeno so I thought it would be a good idea to try the Snyder’s of Hanover Jalapeno Pretzel Pieces. I had never tried the pretzel brand before but it looked very enticing and high quality in its shiny foil packaging.
The pretzels …

I found a small 6 pack of this beer at my grocery store, and since I like wheat beers and watermelon, I figured I would give it a shot. While this isn’t my favorite brew, it’s definitely a refreshing twist on one wheat beer.
The first thing that drew me …

I’m not exactly sure why moe’s calls this burrito a joey bag of doughnuts. I somehow imagine it is some sort of inside joke, of refrence to a song or movie that I just dont understand. This burritto however is by far one of my favorites.
What it is is …

I rarely buy instant coffee drinks because I consider that a waste of money but I also like to have it at home because sometimes I really don’t feel like making coffee for myself only and then I prepare myself an instant coffee drink which is a coffee and …

While out, someone suggested that I try a new pre-mixed bottled alcoholic drink made by Bacardi. I was a little apprehensive at first because some of these drinks don’t really taste very potent. Or they are so full of sugars that you can’t really taste …

I’ve been seeing Must Be Mom’s booths in a lot of malls and bazaars selling their delicious looking baked goods, but I have never tasted any of their products until last night, as someone gave a box of it to my dad. My dad was given the box …
