Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice - Jasmine
If you’re a fan of Jasmine rice but aren’t a rice cooker then I highly recommend giving this product a try. It is probably my favorite rice on the market today. I’ve never been good at cooking rice. I always have to buy the precooked rice …
Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
Douwe Egberts Pure Indulgence Instant Coffee
Douwe Egberts Pure Indulgence is an excellent instant coffee with a lovely flavour. I like a coffee with a lot of strength to it but without harshness or bitterness and this coffee fits the bill. It is good and strong so I, as a total caffeine addict, …
Odwalla Chocolate Protein Shake Protein Smoothie
Odawlla is that brand that I am no stranger to. Whenever I am browsing in the health food section in my favorite grocery stores, I scan and look for Odwalla. I can appreciate their products, because they are tasty, convenient and great for on the go. I also …
Hostess Twinkies
What I love about Hostess Twinkies is that they are a very simple dessert treat. I like the fact that they are almost like an eclair in shape and style but without chocolate. They are elongated sponge cakes with cream in the beginning, the middle, and the end of …
Digiorno 12″ Rising Crust Three Meat
This is one of Digorno’s better frozen pizzas. The amount of toppings on this pizza is impressive and includes pepperoni, beef and sausage. The pepperoni topping is about the best of the three because the pepperoni has the most flavor. There’s a lot of it, too. I think there’s …
Roast beef sandwich from Safeway
Safeway stores has another in its selection of very good sandwiches. The sandwich is roast beef with crumbles of bleu cheese with lettuce and tomatos on focaccio bread. It is delicious. Bleu cheese isn’t a cheese I’d normally expect with roast beast, but it’s delicious.
I had this sandwich recently …
Angostura Soy Sauce
It was the holiday season and I was rushing for ingredients to make a special dinner for some relatives I would be having over. Unfortunately one of the ingredients I needed to pick up at the store was soy sauce.
I think everyone had the same idea I did and …
Bermudez Domino Cookies (Vanilla Cream)
I love to try different types of cookies and there is a company here in my country named Bermudez which specializes in all sorts of cookies and biscuits. One of their recent cookies (maybe only came out a few years back) is named Domino and there are a couple …
Betty Crocker Microwave Delights
I love cake and brownies, but I live alone so it’s often a bad idea to cok a whole pan of browniess. I either can’t eat them all, or I try to eat them all which is a slo a horrible idea. Betty Crocker has just come out with …
Mikado —“ Strawberry and cream milk chocolate
Although I am not a big fan of chocolate with strawberries about a week ago I saw this all new collection of Mikado Summer Edition chocolates and I bought all three of them. The first 2 were apricot and cream and lime and cream and I was expecting the …

Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs
A decade or so ago, I happened upon Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs. Since I’m a kid at heart anyway, and since I loved their canned product of the same meal, I decided to give it a try. Anything that can save me cleanup gets my …
Grandi Rum chocolate bars
I went to Getro and there I saw these Grandi Rum chocolate bars. Grandi is a Getro brand and I really don’t like shop brands because they are often of a very lousy quality. I’ve tried a bunch of Grandi stuff and I can’t really say that I liked …
Johnsonville Classic Italian-Style Meatballs
I was at our local grocery store a few days ago and, as I often do, I took a few minutes to check out the specials in the meat department. As it turns out, they had bags of Johnsonville Classic Italian-Style Meatballs on sale for $5.99.
We use frozen meatballs …
Danone Dahi Nutri 4Plus Plain Yogurt
I bought Danone Dahi Nutri 4 plus because of so many wonderful reasons. It was a regular practice when we go to grocery, we do buy yogurt as part of my grocery list. But this is the very first time that we used the brand Danone.
Dahi or what we …
Sunshine Snacks Corn Chips
Sunshine Snacks is a popular local brand for snack foods and one of their products is Corn Chips. This snack comes in a very light .28g package. This is not surprising since the chips themselves are pretty light but also very crispy. Since it is so small it is …
Appy fizz
Appy fizz is a new drink which is an apple juice, introduced in the market recently. It is a cool drink to hang up with. I have tasted this drink and it is good for adults. It simply tastes like the apple and some what like …
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs w/ Egg Noodles (frozen dinner)
Swedish meatballs are wonderful. I’ve made them several times and have really fallen in love with the recipe. I decided to try Stouffer’s version of the meal and see what it’s frozen entrée had to offer. I was pleased with the flavor. …
Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill
Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill is a sandwich that is, admittedly, huge. The large chicken breast will really make your eyes go wide! Unfortunately, I just did not care for this sandwich too much because I am not a great big fan of grilled chicken. I much prefer the …
Arizona Golden Bear Lemonade with Strawberry Beverage
I was given the opportunity to try Arizona Golden Bear Lemonade with Strawberry one evening when my older sister came over with a variety of products she spotted at her neighborhood grocery store. Usually she picks up a can or two of the original Arizona tea, but this time …
Cabbage Rolls
I hate to hate food, but Cabbage Rolls ain’t that ‘cool’ for me. I just dislike the idea of cabbages stuffed into some bread and be eating it like that. But here is another food option idea for cabbage lovers out there. You can perhaps try this …
Crystal Light Energy - On the Go
Crystal Light is one of the best things to have happened to the beverage market in the last couple of decades. I’ve yet to be disappointed in any of their products.
The latest is their Crystal Light Energy On the Go packages. This is the absolute most convenient …
Ferrero Rocher Chocolates
I’m going to talk about a sweet I’ve been wanting to eat for some time now.
These are the Ferrero Rocher chocolates, some snacks that are reeeeeally good and consisting of a ball of chocolate with almonds on the outside, a small cookie on it’s internal spherical shape and a …
Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Chocolaty Chip Bars
Due to my digestive problems, I need to eat about 40 grams of fiber a day. It isn’t easy to find healthy sources of fiber because most healthy sources tend to be bland, not to mention unpalatable as well. Whenever I buy snacks, I always look at …
Del Monte Spaghetti Sauce
I had been making or cooking spaghetti in so many occasions. Before i only used catchup to taste and color. I have some ways of my own to make my own variant of spaghetti. Until i discover that Del Monte Spaghetti sauce could just simplify all of it. I …
Starbucks Via Ready Brew, Italian Roast
I don’t really go to Starbucks anymore, but when I did I was always into their dark roasts like Sumatra or Italian roast. I haven’t had instant coffee in even longer, because it isn’t the best tasting coffee usually. Instant is something I felt I had moved on from. …
Diet Pepsi
I love Diet Pepsi. I think that I am addicted. The problem is they are not good for you. I don’t know if it is the carbonation, the taste or the caffeine.
The label says that there are 0 calories, …
Alexia Garlic Baguette Twin Pack
Some things just go well together. Things like peanut butter and jelly, for one, taste good when eaten separately yet great when enjoyed together. Another example of two things that taste good separately yet much better when paired together is pasta or pizza and garlic bread. Adding garlic bread …
Perdue Chicken Breasts
My wife and I recently purchased a box of Perdue chicken breasts because we were looking to stock up our freezer and they were a pretty good deal (11 in a box for under $10). Or, at least a the time we purchased them, they seemed like it.
We made …
Fit & Active Light Butter Popcorn
When they say “light”, they mean light! I don’t think though I’ll ever be able to get used to a lightly buttered popcorn, especially when the popcorn is as bland as this one. It has almost no flavor at all. Oddly enough, the buttery aroma was stronger than the …
Stouffer’s Harvest Apples
Stouffer’s Harvest Apples make for a relatively delightful side dish or after dinner treat. The reason I use the word “relatively” is because I believe that these apple slices could stand some improvement. Where the improvement could be made is in the flavor. There is not a great deal …
Quaker Oatmeal Instant
I purchase this product regularly and my family enjoys it but several weeks ago we found something wrong with the quality control of an envelope of Maple & Brown Sugar instant Oatmeal (a piece of paper or something like a peanut skin inside the package) and I wrote to …
Marzetti Sesame Ginger Salad Dressing
Every time my husband goes to the grocery store by himself I get scared of what he might bring home with him this time. Granted he usually does pretty well but it’s guaranteed that there will be at least one item that has me raising an eyebrow. Lately he …
Ranch Dressing with Bacon
We had discovered Ranch dressing with bacon by accident: my father-in-law had mistakenly bought a bottle of it instead of regular Ranch and gave it to us to try. Our family loved the rich taste with a touch of bacon flavor, we now buy only this kind of Ranch. …
Sierra Mist Soda
Sierra Mist Soda came out years ago from PepsiCo as their response to the popularity of their rival’s 7-Up Soda. I love 7-Up, but I was willing to try the new drink. Over the years, we’ve had it many times, just as my family has tried various …
Digiorno’s Crispy Flatbread Pizzas
I’m not sure exactly when Digiorno came out with their great tasting Crispy Flatbread Pizzas but I recently started enjoying them and fell in love with their amazing taste and their ease of dinner preparation and clean up. These pizzas
are available in the frozen pizza section of most grocery …
Cafe Breton’s Gallete Don Quixote Gourmet Crepe
I love crepes. There are a lot of restaurants serving crepes but no one has ever topped my favorite from café Breton. This restaurant has been in the business for years and they are still number one in my book.
This afternoon my husband and I were so hungry we …
Argentina Corned Beef
Argentina Corned Beef according to its advertisement is fortified with zinc and iron. However, I still could not enjoy eating this corned beef. It contains too much food coloring. One time we went on picnic and one of my friends brought some cans of Argentina corned bees. She …
Vitazone Soursop Lemon
I like cold drinks. Almost any kinds of cold drinks. If I don’t have the time or energy to make some cold drinks, I opt by buying some of them. One of the drink I love to buy is Vitazone, it is a vitamin isotonic drink. …
Rustler’s Burger
I would say the most common Microwave Food I eat is probably Burgers. You can pick up so many different brands of Micro Burgers and I would say that Burgers are probably my most favourite food in a certain sense, well fast food anyway. Not the most healthiest food …
Nestle Coffee-mate Coffee Creamer
I am very particular with my coffee; actually, that is the dialogue of my father. He drinks coffee four times a day. In the morning, he has to have black coffee and after lunch a sweetened coffee and at night, two cups of coffee with Coffee-mate. Maybe I adopted …

I love to drink sprite because in my opinion it is one of the best drinks and it goes along side almost anything. I love Sprite and I have been drinking it for years. One of the main reasons that I love Sprite is because I know …
Maggi Coconut milk powder mix
I recently found this very cool product Maggi coconut mix in the supermarket which can be a very good alternative to the coconut powder placed in cans and bottles because it is not only very easy to use and I don’t have to worry using a can opener but …
