Digiorno 12″ Rising Crust Spinach and Mushroom
This was a disappointing pizza put out by Digiorno. The spinach topping hardly contributed any flavor to this pizza. Perhaps if more spinach had been used, this pizza would have actually had a real spinach flavor to it rather than a fleeting spinach flavor that did very little for …
Alaga: Pancake Butter Maple Syrup
Alaga: Pancake Butter Maple Syrup is a syrup that is actually not all that bad, really, which honestly surprised me since the name was one that I did not recognize and the shape of the bottle, in the form of what appears to be a child-friendly bear. This is …
Melissa’s Soy Slices Jalapeño Flavor
I’m not vegan, but I enjoy trying new things and finding occasional alternatives from mainstream foods, so I’m on stranger to these sorts of things.
This package of 12 single slices actually has as note on the back that says it “contains milk (dairy)”. So it almost seems …
Raley’s Fine Foods Brown and Serve Rolls
I love good bread, and while this isn’t the best out there, Raley’s Fine Foods Brown and Serve Rolls is definitely an inexpensive choice that satisfies.
These days, I have to weigh every penny I spend. When looking for rolls, there are many options available. I’ve found, though, …
Taylors of Harrogate Lazy Sunday Ground Coffee
I applied for an introductory sample of this Taylors Lazy Sunday Ground Coffee as I love trying new brands and, as I say in all my coffee reviews, I am a coffee fiend and cannot get enough of the stuff. They generously sent me enough for an eight-cup …
May Non-Alcoholic Sparkling White Grape Juice
Traditionally, I have been in charge of the arrangements for the holiday meals of the family. My relatives are so picky and I have to confess, the kitchen is not my domain and so I exert extra effort to make our holiday meals festive. I spend most of the …
Red Bull Energy Drink
Red Bull gives you wings, um not! I have to stay up late three out of five days and this drink does absolutely nothing to help. The taste isn’t bad, but why would I spend three dollars on a drink for its taste if that isn’t its selling point. …
Knorr Pasta Sides Chicken
The name of this Pasta Side might be a little misleading because there actually isn’t any bits or pieces of chicken in this Pasta Side. What is in this Pasta Side is a sauce that has the flavor of chicken. The sauce, although thicker than the broth in a …
Munchini Choco Sticks
My grandmother loves to shop for bargain stuff in the barter. She loves to buy Apollo wafer sticks and just recently she bought this Munchy’s Munchini Choco Wafer Sticks. It comes in a huge plastic bin with a red handle. For 480 grams of chocolate cream wafer sticks, this …
Grapefruit the Healer
Who would have thought that a simple little grapefruit could heal many different kinds of infections? Well, the answer is in the testing of the valuable fruit. I once encountered a problem with mosquitoes when one of my children was allergic to the mosquito bite. He …
Fairprice Sardines in Tomato Sauce
Fairprice’s Sardines in Tomato Sauce (155gm) is the house brand of Fairprice supermarket. I bought a few tins of Fairprice’s Sardines in Tomato Sauce, the 155gm tins, when there was a promotion.
I like a good bargain. In term of pricing, Fairprice’s Sardines in Tomato Sauce is a …
All Natural Nantucket Nectars Squeezed Lemonade
My husband and I went to Noodles and Company for dinner the other night. After you get done ordering your food and your ready for a drink, instead of them just handing you over a cup so you can walk over to the soda fountain you have the …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
One in a while I indulge myself and eat a sinfully delicious stack of pancakes. I cook for one, but most packaging are for several people. I was glad that I saw Magnolia Pancake Plus in a 200g packaging in the grocery. The label said that it can make …
Stash Premium Chai Spice Black Tea
I really love tea. I love the way it tastes, I love the way it feels to sit with a cup of tea and just relax or the way that having it to go allows me to bring some comfort of home into the outside world. I’m sure you …
Bush Reduced Sodium Pinto Beans
I was introduced to Bush beans a few years back by my mother who absolutely loves Bush bean. I have been using them ever since. They are brand that you can not go wrong with when you are in a hurry for a meal or need something …
Great Value Buttery Smooth Crackers
Great value is the brand made by Wal-mart that is what I like to call the —˜cheaper store brand’ alternative to the name brand products. Depending on what the product is, I usually try my luck and get Great Value’s product. I’ve come across some good, and I’ve come …
Lipton Teas
I love teas! I guess there is no one that has ever tasted almost all tea variants in the whole of metro manila as me. I love teas, red tea, green tea, korean ginseng teas (not as much as i like green teas) and i also love Milk teas! …
Conditorei Coppenrath and Wiese Toffee Cheesecake
Conditorei Coppenrath & Wiese are a Germany company and today I picked up their Toffee Cheesecake from my local supermarket Heron for only £1.25. Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts and I thought that was a good price. I prefer chocolate or toffee cheesecakes to fruit …
Nestle Blue Riband Dark chocolate biscuits
Nestle’s Blue Riband biscuits have been a nice, tasty treat for as long as I can remember, and are still pretty popular, but more recently the company has introduced Blue Riband Dark, which as the name implies are coated with plain rather than the traditional milk chocolate. Also in …
Arabian Mocha Sanani Coffee
When looking at the starbucks menu of whole bean coffe, arabian is by far the most exppensive, costing almost 150% the cost of the otehr coffees.
So why so expensive?
Arabian Mocha Sanani is aa complex coffee, with so many different berry and herb flavors hitting your tounge, your swear you …
Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls Classic
Few things in life give me as much joy as when I bite into a warm freshly made Cinnabon Cinnamon roll. In fact I would do some pretty shameful things just to get a cup of the cream cheese based frosting that comes with them.
The cinnamon rolls themselves …
Bama (Real) Mayonnaise
I have always been a die-hard Hellman’s mayonnaise fan, but after trying Bama brand mayonnaise, I am hooked. We were shopping at our health food grocery store, EarthFare, and I realized we were out of mayonnaise. EarthFare only sells products with no artificial additives, so when we went to …
Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar
I first recommended it to my mum and aunts for their stiff joints and she has been taking it for over a year now. Tremendous benefits as they feel they no longer get so much joint pain or stiffness upon waking in the morning or climbing stairs. Lately I …
Jacobs 3in1
Lately I started drinking instant coffee drinks instead of real coffee. I like coffee a lot but i started noticing that it doesn’t make me feel good each time I take one. Actually sometimes I even feel rather strange in my stomach. About 1month ago I went to the …
Tofutti Cuties’
Tofutti Cuties’ are totally terrible! What a horrid creation this is. I have no idea what the company used in place of vanilla and chocolate, but boy oh boy do the replacements totally not work at all! The stuff looks like chocolate and looks like vanilla, but the stuff …
Mildura Instant Ginger Drink with Honey
I hate ginger. It’s hot, it’s spicy, and I think it has a horrible taste. Despite how everyone around me tells me how nutritional ginger is, I still can’t bring myself to eat it. I will scoop out all ginger in my dish. I do my best …
Little Debbie Nutty Bars
Little Debbie Nutty Bars make for a crunchy and tasty snack once and awhile. I like how the peanut butter has a good, authentic flavor to it and how well it tastes on top of the wafer bars. The combination is certainly a delightful one! I would like to …
Raspberry Shake at Jack in the Box
I love to drink milk shakes and have ordered one at almost every fast food location. The only thing I hate is that most places stick to the same old strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. If I want something different I usually go to Sonic, because they are one of …
Sonur Tea
Darjeeling Black Tea has always been know for it taste and quality and is no doubt one of the fines products sold around the world. People pay about a 3-4 $ just for 100g of the tea and is really quite an expensive product but it has plenty of …
Great Value Fruit Cocktail
I bought a can of Great Value Fruit Cocktail despite my husband’s warning that this brand was not so good as our favorite Del Monte. But Great Value is considerably cheaper, so I thought I would give it a try. The fruit cocktail consists of diced pears, peaches, pineapple, …
Quaker 100% Whole Grain Old Fashioned Oats
Oatmeal for breakfast is probably one of the best things the mankind has ever invented. I don’t really like savoury breakfast foods and the oatmeal is my favourite thing to eat, and not just for breakfast. That alone makes chosing the best oats a very important thing for me. But …
Annies Homegrown Gluten Free Rice Pasta and Cheddar
Being on a gluten free diet is horrible, but I have to be on one because I am highly allergic to gluten. One of the foods I have been craving on a gluten free diet is macaroni and cheese. However, I cannot just have any kind of macaroni and …
M&Ms Limited Addition Coconut
One day I was on my way to Turkey Hill to get gas, and out the corner of my eye I saw a display of what appeared to be M&Ms. So I walked over to take a closer look and sure enough that’s what it was. …
Wyler’s Light Drink Mix
Wyler’s Light, similar to Crystal Light only cheaper, has come out with a drink mix called Cool Raspberry. It’s sugar-free, low in calories, and absolutely delicious. Add one packet to two quarts of water, stir, and start sipping your lovely concoction. Take your drink out on the patio and …
Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake
Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake is a pretty decent side dish, although it is by no means perfect. By that, I mean the diced potatoes come across as not tasting fresh. if you have ever tasted boxed potatoes, I think you will discover that this potato bake shares a little …
Kolak Kure Green Chutney Flavour Maize Snacks
I tried a bag of Kolak Kure Green Chutney Flavour Maize Snacks for the first time today, but I would not buy these again. They may suit you if you have different tastebuds to me though. These come in a largeish, green and yellow 90g bag and …
Nestle Pops
Nestle Ice Cream now has a new product called the nestle pops. This new ice cream is a new innovative ice cream product that you do not need to eat it with a cone or even a spoon.
Nestle Pops is a vanilla ice cream coated with chocolate that looks …
MITR PHOL Natural Granulated Sugar 2 kg
MITR PHOL natural granulated sugar is my first choice when it comes to white sugar. It comes in a transparent, yet durable packaging. To me, it’s very important that the packaging for sugar is good.
After all, I’d tried buying other sugar brands in the supermarket, and I’d …
Ferrero Rocher
This truffles were always my favourite ones. There are different kinds of them, with dark chocolate and hazelnuts, with milk chocolate and hazelnuts and now they made few new flavours like the one with coconuts, pistachios, lemon and almonds.
I’ve tasted most of them but I like classical taste the …
Options Outrageous Orange Instant Hot Chocolate Drink
When I was a weight-obsessed teenager, I would often have an Options hot chocolate drink, taking a couple to work to have instead of coffee. I can see why because they are only 33 calories per drink which is nothing. The Options instant hot chocolate drinks are …
L’Oven White Bread
I picked up bread the other day thinking we didn’t have any at home. But, as it turns out, my wife convinced my parents to pick up some groceries for us since they were at the store anyway and she didn’t want to go out in the cold with …
Greek Gods Yogurt in Honey Flavor
I really like yogurt and one of my favorite brands has to be nestle. However, I saw this product at Publix and since I had a dollar off coupon for the product I decided to get it. They are a little expensive at about three dollars a …
Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop
The Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop is really not that terrific, in my opinion. The reason I am not won over with these bomb pops is because of the flavor. There are supposed to be a multitude of flavors to be found on these bomb pops, but what …
MN brand mango pickle
I have said a lot about the MN brand mango pickles. And now I am going to talk about the MN brand mango pickle. The very good quality tender mangoes are cut in to cubes and these cubes are used to make the pickle. The spices …
Pillsbury Perfect Portions Refrigerated Big Buttermilk Biscuits
Many people associate Pillsbury with biscuits, and this is exactly why you should. This new way of packaging their Big Buttermilk Biscuits is a great idea. 10 buttermilk biscuits come packeed in a small cardboard box and wrapped in pairs in plastic that you easily peel apart starting at …
Little Debbie Lemon Muffins
Little Debbie Lemon Muffins are not all that incredible in my opinion. Although I do like the flavor of lemon, I am not crazy about it like I am with certain other flavors. Perhaps that is the reason why I did not find these muffins to be outrageously delicious. …
Kroger Cocoa Crispy Rice
Kroger Cocoa Crispy Rice is a tasty cereal that I feel is just as good as Kellogg’s Cocoa Krispies and if you are a regular purchaser of the Kellogg’s variety, I recommend that you give the Kroger brand a try if you have one near you. Also, because it …
Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers
We, my daughter and I, first discovered the Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers at my aunt’s place. She has bought it for her sons to snack on. They tasted great and my daughter loved it and had seconds. So, I asked her where she bought them. She said it was …
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, Butter Substitute
I love butter on everything I eat. I bake with butter and use it to top every type of bread. I like to use butter to saute and even fry on occasion. Although I love butter and think it absolutely makes every meal delicious, I was trying to cut …
