I’ve been a user of Ken’s salad dressings ever since they first became available in my local grocery stores. I was previously a person who complained about bottled salad dressings. I did not particularly care for the over processed taste and I could detect when one was …

I came home last night once again expecting leftovers for dinner. However, my wife apparently had other plans (unlike me, she has no problem throwing out uneaten food every Sunday) and, instead, was making spaghetti and meatballs.
Whenever I make spaghetti, I prefer making my sauce rather than using sauce …

I have tried every skittle out there…I like them ok but they are a little to sugary for me. So when skittles came out with the Ice Cream Limited Edition Flavor I thought why not. I purchased a bag and tried the first flavor, vanilla. Amazing, it taste just …

Why is Zubrowka the tastiest vodka in the world, unique among the rest? Well, it’s from Poland, so you know it’s good. And it’s made from grass that the Polish buffalo roam on when they roam across the Polish lands. So it’s a yellowish color and …

Every now and then, I get a craving for chocolate and ice cream, and Wendy’s frostys are a refreshing solution. Recently they’ve been advertising their new blended frostys, supposedly more like milk shakes.
Turns out those are kind of ridiculous. You pay more money for something that tastes exactly the …

I decided to try the new Southern Style Chicken Sandwich from the McDonald’s in Fairfield, NJ. When I first unwrapped this sandwich I was surprised to see that there were no condiments. The sandwich looked like it was a descent size. The chicken breast on this …

I do not feel that the Dillman Farm - All Natural Cherry Butter Fruit Spread goes quite as well with my morning breakfast as the apple or pumpkin or blueberry spreads do, but I must say that this spread does have a very strong and quite rich cherry flavor …

I am a big fan of Illinois wine. I am not a wine snob and probably officially wouldn?t know what experts call a really good wine if you hit me with it.
But, I am a fan of good tasting wines. I prefer whites, usually, because they are sweeter without …

Maxwell House French Roast Coffee is a medium dark roast coffee made from 100% Arabica beans. I purchase it in the 34.5 ounce plastic container. The container is easy to open and close, and keeps the coffee adequately fresh. (I go through the container in about …

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.
I found it a few weeks later in new packaging. I was relieved, but I soon pondered why Wal-Mart had changed it. Did they ruin …

I have tried almost every type of bottled water out there, at least the inexpensive ones. When I drink bottled water I look for one of two things. I either want a water that has somewhat of a processed taste. This means that I can actually taste that it …

For tourist and travelers like me, going to Dumaguete City is nothing without stopping by and eating at Sans Rival. This is a name quite synonymous to Dumaguete City as if without this pastry shop, dumaguete City ceased to exist in the minds of visitors.
…

Before ALDI opened up in my area, I used to purchase the Walmart Great Value Garlic Texas Toast because it was the cheapest Texas Toast I could find at just a dollar seventy-four a box for eight slices. That easily beat the national brands like New York Style and …

Mother dairies lick lolies is the name of the ice candies. It comes in many flavors and many shapes. The banana, apple, pineapple and mango many such flavors are very tasty. These ice candies are only available in the ice cream parlors. The cost of …

Sobe Enegrize Citrus Energy was one of the flavors I decide to try when it and some of the other flavor Elixirs were on sale at Kroger for eighty-cents each. So to say this one and other flavors were tossed in my cart for purchase. I designated this one …

I went looking for an energy drink at my local grocery store because I had a long drive I had to do one afternoon and evening that would require me to be awake for 19 hours that day. I distrust a lot of the energy drinks like Red Bull, because …

Drinking hot beverage is something we love especially in rainy season or winter season in Western countries. When I was in Shanghai, one of the drinks I ordered in their Starbucks branch was hot chocolate because I did not know any of their drink. It has always been a …

Wendy’s - Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger is a good alternative for me if I do not want something that is as heavy as the Baconator sandwich. This sandwich is quite a bit smaller, yet it can still help to make for a satisfying lunch if I add a cup of …

I always like to try new chocolate bars and as I like Mars bars I thought I would try a packet of Mars Planets. These are basically little milk chocolate balls with three different centers —“ chewy, crispy and soft —“ which are supposed to be the different …

I love a good freebie, so when Taco Bell handed out free coupons to try their new limeade drink, I couldn’t pass it up.
This new Taco Bell drink comes in a lime and cherry flavor. I went back and forth on which one to try, but ultimately settled …

Everyone has been raving about the goodness that Acai berries have. People have been saying that Acai berries have greater antioxidants than other fruits. It is difficult to find Acai berries here in the Philippines so when there was an opportunity for my aunt to send us a huge …

I am a big fan of Garlic breads and so as my daughter is. I make garlic bread at home using French bread but it is quite a hassle as there are so many brands of garlic breads available in stores at a reasonable price. I usually bought frozen …

I love to eat pasta. I recently purchased Prego’s Roasted garlic Parmesan pasta sauce and was very impressed with its taste. I tend to put a lot of Parmesan cheese on my pasta. With this pasta sauce I felt like I didn?t have to ass as much cheese to …

I don’t know how many people have experienced curried duck before but it is pretty popular here in my country and also pretty expensive. My absolute favourite curried duck is cooked by a man named Roger. He just gets all the measurements right every time it seems.
Curried duck goes …

I’m nursing a seasonal cold, so I went to the store to find that orange juice, normally a little higher than other juices, was jacked up suspiciously higher than normal. Instead of selling in to the cold-time mania, I opted to try some Tropicana fruit punch instead. Two quarts …

When it comes to dieting one of my favorite things to keep around the house is yogurt. I can eat it for a snack, for breakfast and for desert without feeling too guilty about the carbs and calories that it has. One of my favorite brands is …

I drink coffee. About twice daily or less, not much compared to those coffee lovers. I can only drink them when they’re cold and iced, can’t have them if they’re hot or warm or in between, they must be cold and iced. Okay, enough about my …

It is my mother-in-law’s birthday and so my husband told me to buy her mom something which doesn’t have to be expensive as our simple present and so I chose to buy this Surprise Cake from Max’s Bakeshop.
I have already tried some of …

I have been a fan of Knorr soups as they are easy to make and my family loves the soups. The soup powder comes in a 52 g pack and is produced by Hindustan Lever Ltd in India. It is very easy to make the soup from the powder …

While nothing can really come close to homemade ginger cookies, these ginger cookies from Kroger aren’t half bad. They are a little harder than I’m used to as the ones that come homemade are a bit on the softer side, but the harder texture isn’t a problem for me. …

BARILLA, the Italian pasta maker, is probably the most popular among the “big” commercial pasta producers. Some of its success may be attributed to the variety and the sheer ubiquity of their many products. But they wouldn’t be as popular as they are if they weren’t simply good - surely …

My daughter just woke up from her nap and, since she hasn’t eaten anything since breakfast (it’s now 2 in the afternoon), I went looking for something for her to eat.
She wasn’t really eating her lunch (she ate part of it but the cat kept distracting her), I decided …

I have found a perfect combination: a blend of peanut butter and dark chocolate. I’ve always liked chocolate candy with peanut butter inside, and often wished someone would come up with the idea of mixing these two tastes in some kind of butter or spread. Well, it turns out …

I bought Sunkist California Pistachios when they were on sale, and still they were a bit expensive, almost $5 for a 14 oz plastic container. For some reason, pistachios are always more pricy than peanuts. Still, once in a while I treat myself to them. Sunkist pistachios are dry …

The first time I heard about a drink that combines juice and milk I felt sceptical about it. Since I was a kid I was always told not to mix juice and milk. However, one day a friend treated me to one, and I decided to try it.
This product …

Cereal was my favorite food before I became hypoglycemic, and I would eat it for most of my meals. After getting sick, I was faced with the realization that I would have to say “Goodbye” to most of my beloved brands. One that I can still enjoy, …

I don’t eat many ready meals, finding they always taste far too salty for me and mostly have an incredible amount of fat in them. Add to this the fact that these days most ready meals take around forty five minutes to cook in the oven and you …

After two weeks of being sick and thinking I had the flu I ended up visiting the doctor where they ran a few test including a urine test. The doctor ended up diagnosing me with a severe bladder infection. However, knowing my history with bad reactions to prescription antibiotics …

This is my favorite cookie, ever. It may be a simple kind of cookie, but it sure is a real tasty one! The cookie is very easy to bite into and break off, although I wouldn’t classify it as a soft cookie. The underside of the cookie is coated …

I love Minute Maid Fruit Punch and it’s certainly my most favorite brand of fruit punch juice. Minute Maid Fruit Punch is available in my different containers and sizes. I love the fact that I am able to enjoy a small bottle Minute Maid Fruit Punch …

I’m a big lover of mint and everything mint-flavoured and luckily there’s enough minty things out there. Lindt is my favourite chocolate brand that doesn’t change its quality standards and keeps up with the job of making high quality Swiss chocolate, famous all around the world. They also happen to …

I enjoy baking all sorts of goods including cakes, pies, cookies, breads and etc. especially during the holiday season and family gatherings throughout the year. I pride myself on using the freshest ingredients and making everything from scratch. No, it’s not always easy and it can be time consuming …

Let me start off by saying that I’m not a big fan of Mexican candy. I’ve tried some in the past and while I like a lot of the chocolate flavored stuff, everything else I usually ignore. There’s a small Mexican booth in one of my local flea markets …

This wholemeal sliced bread is a small, 400g loaf from the in-store bakery at Tesco. This is a plain, golden brown wholemeal loaf with no fancy additions such as seeds, but it is very good and tastes nice, not to mention the fact that it contains wholegrain goodness …

I know what you’re thinking. How can anyone submit a review for perhaps the blandest, most uninspiring sandwich that McDonald’s “manufactures” in its franchises. But those who skip over this little sandwich on the fast food menu are missing out on something: simple goodness. Packing in …

Halo- halo is one of the Filipinos most favorite dessert or snack especially during summer. It is usually a mixture sweetened corn kernels, sweet preserved beans (red beans, chick peas), coconut meat (macapuno), jackfruit (langka), pounded dried rice (pinipig), sweet yam (ube), custard or creme caramel, cream flan (leche …

I’ve always enjoyed Sorrento’s many fine cheese products both in cooking and simply as a healthy and quick snack. Recently I tried their “Sticksters” cheese for kids (although grown ups can eat it too!). It is along the same idea as the stringsters type of cheese but the sticksters …

I’m not really a biscuit fan until my mom made me try the Pillsbury Grands butter flaky biscuits. They turned out to be the opposite of most of the biscuits I’ve eaten, and the best part was that I actually ate them instead of throwing them out.
Somehow I ended …

My aunt gave us a pack of JinXuan Tea Tomatoes which are preserved small tomatoes, probably cherry tomatoes. They are packed in small red plastic packaging which holds 1-2 pieces. The wrapper is not transparent so you cannot see what the product looks like.
The product itself looks …

I don’t recall seeing Snickers Creme Hearts in years past so it may be a new item for the 2010 Valentine’s Day celebration. These small one-ounce treats come in a red package which actually shows what the candy will like out though it’s a conceptual image and not …
