International delight: Almond Joy Creamer
As a coffee drinker I like to use liquid creamer instead of the standard powdered version of it. For the simple fact that its blends better than the power does. Not only does it blend better but it at times sweetens the coffee, enhances the flavor or better yet …

Grilled Baja Chicken at O’Charley’s Restaurant
This delicious satisfying dish is sadly only offered during the summer months. But when it’s available, I made a mad dash for the door. There are a number of things that’s appealing about this dish. First, the price is very affordable for what you get. …
Count Chocula Energy Drink
Fans of Generation pop culture and trivia will get a huge kick out of the inclusion of the Count Chocula brand into the world of energy drinks. Yes, it was only a short time ago that the great Count (along with Boo Berry and Franken Berry) was a …
Lipton Pure Green Tea Bags
De-caffeneiting my self proved to be difficult. Getting the taste of tea for the first time was off-putting. I couldn’t imagine making a commitment to drinking tea every morning since I stopped the habit due to health reasons. Caffeine naturally has a propensity to increase the …

Milka’s Cookies & Cream version of their Alpine Milk Chocolate is one of a couple of limited edition bars that have recently been on sale in a number of shops in the United Kingdom. They seem to be sold mostly in branches of the Poundland discount shop, although they …
Entenmann’s 8 Crumb Donuts
I was moderately impressed with Entenmann’s 8 Crumb Donuts. This is essentially a coffee cake made into a donut. The donut is on the crunchy side and features cinnamon baked into the crumb topping. This is a unique donut creation that I have not seen before. I personally feel …
Bob Evans Breakfast Bakes Bacon, Egg, Cheese and Hash Browns

Ashirwad iodised salt
My mother uses the Ashirwad iodised salt in our house to prepare the food. Actually this salt is iodised, and is very good for the health. Our body needs the proper quantity of iodine every day and that we can get by using the Ashirwad iodised salt. …
Pringles Original
It’s so easy to spot this in the supermarket - - -a tall red coloured tube, at the top is a picture of a white man sporting bushy eyebrows and handle bar moustache and the red bow, below that the bright yellow letters spelling out PRINGLES. I don’t know …
Farm Rich Mini Bacon Cheeseburgers

Product Description: Brand of beef steaks ranging from round steak to sirloin. These are available at select stores. The price varies a bit depending on the steak itself but, on average, runs about $3 per pound.

Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops are terrible. They simply are. To my taste buds, these mini muffin tops are almost totally tasteless and plus, because they are so small, eating one does nothing for me at all. I know that these are not intended to …
Kraft Philadelphia Cooking Creme
Product Description: Similar to Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese, this product is a thick creme that can be melted to make a variety of dishes. We paid a little over $2 for it at one of our stores (thanks to a coupon) and used it instead of pasta sauce when …
Cadbury Dairy Milk Apricot Cumble Crunch
Ever since I started eating chocolates, I always choose Cadbury, although honestly, I don’t have any brand preference. I have tried different kinds of Cadbury. From milk chocolates (dairy milk) to other types with nuts or fruit mixture. Of all these Cadburry chocolates, I love the plain one the …
Grace Finest Quality Tea
My parents love drinking tea like a lot of other Jamaicans, and since things have gotten pretty hard financially, usually what they buy these days are brands like “Red Rose Tea” since those tend to be less expensive. However, when they can afford it, I normally see them try …
Excelsior Premium Bran and Oats Cream Crackers
Normally I am used to the Excelsior Cream Crackers made of flour, but recently my grandmother introduced me to the Excelsior Premium Bran and Oats Cream Crackers which she said was not only healthy, but didn’t cost much. Since I usually prefer foods made of bran to flour, I …
Chapman’s Premium Ice Cream
I usually buy Chapman’s Premium Ice Cream when I’m sad or on special occassions. Well… That isn’t completely true because the quality of this fine brand makes me often ignore my diet or that little voice in my head urging me to throw caution to the wind and please …
Betty Crocker Au gratin Potatoes
We had steak for dinner last night and one of the side dishes my wife made with it was Betty Crocker’s Au Gratin potatoes. Those actually turned out to be one of the better things we ate.
I liked how you could make them right in the oven with the …
Hershey’s dark chocolate
I am a chocolate-lover and my most favorite chocolate is Hershey’s dark chocolate.Many people doesn’t like dark chocolate since it is mildly sweetened.But i feel that a little bitterness add much to the taste of the chocolate.
Most chocolates makes me dizzy after eating them because of the sugar content,but …
Shamrock Otap
Another one of Cebu City’s (Philippine tourist destination) best is the pastry called OTAP. Many bakeshops and pastry shops have mastered this delicacy, but of course, Shamrock Brand stands out in taste. Shamrock is a much known product in Cebu and even in Manila City. Its product not only …

Caesar’s Beef Shepherd’s Pie
When I went to the mall the other day I had no idea what to have for lunch. I always have Kentucky Fried Chicken or Chicken Noodles. I decided I would have something different. I headed over to Caesar’s and had a look at their buffet spread. I saw …
The Keg Steakhouse and Bar Seasoning Salt
Seasoning salt seems a rather silly thing to get excited about, because in reality, aren’t all seasoning salts made with the same ingredients, and look and taste exactly alike? I thought so too-generally, I tried to always have some on hand, mainly to flavour steaks, hamburgers and even salads, …
Kombucha Wonder Drink, Traditional Kombucha Beverage
Kombucha Wonder Drink, Traditional Kombucha is a beverage I found on sale while shopping at Aldi’s one afternoon. I was first attracted to the product when I spotted it on sale. Sometimes, Aldi carries random products that have limited quantities. This was the case with this beverage. At the …
Family Pantry Toaster Pastries
We bought a box of toaster pastries from the brand Family Pantry the other day and have been having them for breakfast the past two days. I have to say, they are some of the crappiest toaster pastries we have ever had.
These, of course, are a generic version of …
Oatmeal Crisp Triple Berry
I often eat cereal for breakfast, and have been trying to eat more healthy cereals. I am now on my third box of Oatmeal Crisp Triple Berry, which I like because it is crunchy and flavourful.
I like the bits of dried berry, although I do find the strawberry pieces …
Land, Low Fat Whip, Raspberry
I don’t like to eat yogurt and food like that specially in the evening because they make me just more hungry. But I can’t resist if I have Low Fat Whip, Raspberry in my fridge so I don’t buy it very often. It has 113 kcal per 100gr but …
Todai Seafood & Sushi Buffet in Puente Hills Mall
Todai Seafood Buffet…where do I start? Okay, I’ll start by giving the bottom line: this place is amazing. Before coming, I was a little skeptical that an all-you-can-eat Japanese buffet would be any good; most Asian buffets fall flat in the flavor department and are overpriced. True …
Malteasers
I only have to see a television commercial for Malteasers and I will be craving them until I get myself down to the shop. They consist of little malted honeycomb balls covered in a thick layer of milk chocolate and they are delicious. I love that malted …
Krusteaz Bakery Style Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix
Krusteaz Bakery Style Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix is a cookie mix that I am really pretty pleased with. I have found that the chocolate chip cookies that originate from this mix come quite chewy and the flavor is really very scrumptious! The chocolate chunks literally are chunks and what …
Kellogg’s Corn Flakes breakfast cereal
It probably sounds fairly cliched to say it, but sometimes I find that the original really is the best, and that is most definitely the case when it comes to corn flakes. Although I have often been quite favourably impressed by the supermarket own brands, none of them has …
Stouffer’s Pepperoni Bread Pizza
I like Stouffer’s food: I think it’s the best in term of quality and taste. I saw a pizza in the grocery store when I browsing the “junk food” aisle. The thing that caught my attention about the Stouffer’s pepperoni bread pizza is that the crust of the pizza …
Pringles
I’m old enough to remember when Pringles first came out on the market; or at least became popular enough where people actually heard of them.
And, throughout the years, the chips have made some interesting claims ranging from being whole chips because they are in a can and not in …
Filipino Adobo
Rice is the staple food in the Philippines. And what goes perfectly with rice? I’d say adobo. It’s a native Filipino dish which is basically just meat (chicken or pork) cooked to simmer in a mixture of soy sauce and vinegar as well as some seasoning. Preparing it is …
Diet Coke
I like diet soda, but I love diet coke it is by far the best tasting diet cola on the market in my opinion. I am not embarrassed to admit that I suck down a ton of diet coke every day. It is my vice, I am addicted to it, …
Nestle Dark Chocolate with orange peel
I must admit that for a long time I’ve been wanting to buy Nestle Dark Chocolate with orange peel but it is always so expensive, usually it costs about 1,50Euro and it has only 90 grams so I usually take Milka chocolate which has 100g and I find it …
McDonald’s restaurant (UBC location)
This particular McDonald’s restaurant is almost always busy, probably because of its location on a university campus. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, it’s still a fairly clean location. (I’ve been in some McDonald’s restaurants that were not). So it’s your standard bright and cheerful McDonald’s (although it …
Gatorade
I live in a hot tropical country. It is very important to hydrate my body all the time especially during hot summer days. A good beverage to have is Gatorade. It is healthy and not bad for the body unlike sodas. This product has evolved over the years. It …
Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips
Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …
Cheetos Twisted Puffs Cheese Flavored Snack
Cheetos has been my all time favorite snack. Twisted Puffs is kind of new to me though. I don’t know if it’s already old, but it’s just recently that I discovered it. It’s good but I still think that the original one tastes better. Cheetos Twisted Puffs looks and …
Michael Angelos Meat Lasagna
Michael Angelos Meat Lasagna is a product I began purchasing about two years ago and overall, I’m pleased with it.
The product is preservative free and is prepared with ground beef that is sauted with fresh garlic and onions. It also includes tomatoes and a blend of Italian spices. …
Lance Cheese on Wheat Crackers
Ever since I was a small child I have always enjoyed Lance Cheese on Wheat crackers. The crackers are only sold packaged in packs of six; you can find them sometimes in vending machines. These are by far my favorite packaged cracker simply because of how different they are …
Frito Lay All in ONe Party Mix
I can’t say I have ever really been a fan of most party mixes, since most of them I have come in contact with contain things like pretzels which I have never acquired the taste of; but recently, when I saw the “Frito Lay All in One Party Mix” …
Lean Cuisine Rosemary Chicken
This is one of my favorite Lean Cuisine meals! I feel so health-conscious every time I eat it. Lean Cuisine describes this meal as “Roasted chicken tenderloins with a garlic-rosemary sauce with spinach and brown and wild rice.”
If you are dieting by counting your daily calories, at 210 calories, …
Tang Mango Powdered Juice Drink
Mango is one of the most delicious fruits for me and the most refreshing juice to drink. It makes my lunchtime complete and enjoyable. A glass of mango juice with ice cubes, it is already satisfying to imagine. My quest to look for the perfect mango juice drink was …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Garlic Bread Pepperoni Pizza
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Garlic Bread Pepperoni Pizza sells for just two dollars and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. It’s a twelve inch pizza. I suppose for the amount of money I paid for this pizza, it was acceptable, but I didn’t enjoy it all that much. …
White King Champ-O-Rado Chocolate Ride Porridge
When I was a kid I usually look forward to meals in the afternoon or what we call in the Philippines “merienda” because my mom made such good food. Sometimes I get to eat chocolate rice porridge or what we call “champorado” and I always liked it that I …
