Not being a particularly avid chocolate consumer I only discovered these venerable French bonbons (the factory, while backed by big capital now, has been in operation since 1922) only two years ago, while shopping for my aunt who IS a chocolate addict.
I’ll admit the first thing that made my notice …

I first tried Vanilla Yogurt Burst Cheerios when I went on vacation by my grandparents. It was a new item that just hit the shelves of grocery stores and my grandmother love yogurt, so she bought a box of the Vanilla Yogurt Burst Cheerios. I was skeptical of how …

Often while I’m out during the summer I get incredibly thirsty. Nor does it help any that the temperatures are hovering near ninety with high humidity. To top it off, I’m often walking on foot and that just makes me more parched than ever. I need a drink to …

Zvecevo is not one of my favourite brands of chocolate. Actually there chocolates aren’t special at all so I rarely buy them, they haven’t made anything new for ages. That’s why my surprise was great when I saw a great looking collection of chocolates in white wrapping with golden …

Whole grain wheat cereal certainly isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I know of family and friends that find shredded wheat cereal to be dry and unpleasant in texture. I will say it’s not my favorite kind of cereal, either, but I like it enough to have on occasion. It’s …

This is good news for …

“Chubby” was a Trinidadian soft drink product which came out in the nineteen nineties in Jamaica when I was about six or so years old. I guess the product was named Chubby because it was in a small stout plastic bottle, which at the time to me, made it …

Log Cabin: Original Syrup is one of my absolute flavor syrups to use. The reason it is a real favorite of mine is because the syrup is very rich and it is one of the thicker syrups on the market. It is syrup that greatly enhances my enjoyment of …

I find this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Double Chocolate to be superior to the no bake cheesecake line. The reason I find this particular product to be superior is because of the rich and scrumptious double chocolate flavor that comes with this dessert. The chocolate tastes just like …

I am a type of person that got thirsty very often. I don’t like water that much, the fact that it has no taste. I rather drink juice or iced tea, but iced tea makes me thirstier. So I prefer to drink juices, actually I love juices, my favorite …

I find these Little Debbie Snack Pie - Cherry variety to be far superior to the apple variety. Where as the apple variety lacked real, authentic apple flavor and just seemed to have an overall dull flavor, this cherry variety is quite rich in precisely the flavor it should …

I have tried different kinds of apple liquor, but the one that Granpomier produces is one of my favourites.
The bad thing is the price, as it is also one of the most expensive ones.
This is a soft liquor, as it contains a 20% of alcohol. Because it is not …

I’ve never tried any of the Reser’s Main St. Bistro products before. In fact, I haven’t even seen them before. As a fluke, I was in the deli section of the store and just happened to glance over at some of the prepared foods. I noticed …

Wild Cherry Pepsi is Pepsi’s equivalent to Cherry Coke. Don’t know which one of the two competing companies had come up with the idea of adding cherry flavor first, but it doesn’t matter, I love them both. Wild Cherry Pepsi offers a nice combination of cherry and cola taste. …

I had often heard of the Kellog’s Nutrigrain Cereal Bar from advertisements, but never had the chance to try it until recently even though I really wanted to. This was mostly because the places where I had seen it being sold, were selling it at a very expensive price …

The brand of coffee we use in our home is the Bru, which has excellent flavour and the taste. This is not an international or very famous brand of coffee, but it gives the real taste of coffee. I am not a coffee lover since the …

I love popcorn and watching movies, so when I picked up some videos at Blockbuster Video I also grabbed some popcorn from my local grocery store. I love lots of butter on my popcorn so the “movie theater butter” flavor really appealed to me.

I made a grilled lemon herb chicken over angel hair pasta. I was a bit apprehensive because sauces made with wine that are already on the shelf have a different flavor than sauces made with fresh wine. In any case, I used this sauce after I …

I really like the fresh blueberry bagels from my local Kroger bakery. They are just the right combination of soft and chewy.
The reason they are so good is that I can eat them straight from the package or toast them with a little butter. Since mornings are always so …

I love chocolate. Unfortunately my aging body could no longer accommodate the sugar and the fat that makes chocolate so sweet and seductive. So I’ve learned to ignore the 99 cent bars by simply telling myself that they are too sweet and are not luscious enough. It was …

I was really excited to find that Amy’s Kitchen now makes baked beans. I have a hard time finding a vegetarian version of prepared baked beans or at least any selection of vegetarian baked beans. It was nice to find another brand, especially a brand that is natural and …

Mom’s Best Naturals Raisin Bran is a cereal that’s comparable to Kellogg’s Raisin Bran cereal. The only difference between the two cereals that I can make out is the price. The Kellogg’s cereal is about thirty cents more in price compared to the Mom’s Best Naturals cereal, which retails …

Since I discovered how tasty grilled or roasted red peppers are, I have included them in my diet quite a lot, which is good as they are very nutritious. Of course, they are lovely for anybody to eat but as a vegetarian I am glad to have discovered …

Metromint - Peppermint Water is more or less about as good as hint peppermint water, and if I had to choose the better tasting flavored water, I do not think that I could. Much like the hint flavored water line, this water is also pretty pure and healthy. The …

On a recent trip to my local mega-store, I came upon Hot2Go Coffee Lattes, made by Copper Mountain. Priced at less than $1.50 each, I decided to grab a few.

These are the most gorgeous cereal bars —“ possibly the best I have ever had. I think it is the addition of Belgian chocolate that helps a great deal as the milk chocolate coats one side of the bar is quite a generous layer. These are from …

I’m not a vegan, so when I first heard about Silk Soy Milk I didn’t put too much thought into trying it. All I knew was that the commercials showing people drinking it like it was the most delicious thing in the world were pretty tempting. To be honest, …

I discovered this great healthy snack some years ago when I was still active at the gym. It was in a supermarket beside the gym, and at the time I
had vowed to not only cut my calories, but eat healthy as well. My only guilt after that though was …

Have you ever tasted the Goldilocks Cassava Cake? It’s certainly one of the best I’ve ever tasted. Its sweetness is just enough for those who like it sweet. It’s also tender and soft so it’s really a delight to eat. At the same time, you will taste the cassava …

I personally prefer the Cloverhill Bakery - Strawberry Long John Cake over all the other long john pastries that this company makes and sells in the grocery stores. It may just be because strawberry is one of my favorite flavors to let rest on my taste buds, but I …

They call it the original — Kelloggs Corn Flakes Cereal. It’s certainly the most recognizable and purest of the Kelloggs family of cereals. My father loved this product tremendously. It was pretty much a staple in our cupboards as I grew up.
As for me, I wasn’t …

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 …

Jell-o Instant Pudding - Vanilla flavor is a variety that I quite enjoy, although personally, I do prefer the french vanilla variety. I find that the french vanilla variety has a stronger and richer vanilla flavor and that this variety is a little on the weaker side in terms …
