Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice Cajun Style
This is a rice dish with a flavorful bite! There’s much more to this side dish than just white rice, although white rice does make up a major portion of what’s found in this package. I enjoy the flavor of green peppers, and there’s bits and pieces of green …
Donald Duck Orange Juice
Donald Duck brand orange juice is my favorite type of orange juice. It comes in a 48 ounce can for about $1.29. You can buy it at most Wal-mart Stores. It has a sort of zing to the flavor that makes it stand out above the rest. …
Aunt Jemima: Original Syrup
Aunt Jemima: Original Syrup is a syrup that has a pretty rich flavor to it. It is, however, one of the more expensive syrups, so I typically do not purchase it unless I have a good coupon or it is on sale at an attractive price. I can purchase …
Tesco Garlic Salt
This product from the seasoning and spices range at Tesco is a welcome addition to any spice rack. It’s a garlic powder/salt type of thing, so doesn’t have the potency of a fresh alternative or the flavour of a paste, but for the money, it’s a good alternative that’ll …
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. …
Stouffer’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
Stouffer’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce is nothing all that spectacular or special. I bought it once and was moderately satisfied with what it had to offer to me and then I tried a few other of Stouffer’s frozen pasta meals and I have never felt a need to purchase …
Nabisco Strawberry Newtons Fruit Chewy Cookies

Kraft Honey Barbeque Sauce
When it comes to cookouts, for me, there is nothing better than a good bottle of Kraft honey barbeque sauce somewhere close to me. Even though it’s probably intended for cooking (but not limited to), I prefer to use it as a dipping sauce and for cooking.
The design of …
Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo
I was disappointed with Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo ice cream. What dragged this ice cream down in my eyes was the lack of Oreo cookie pieces. I didn’t think the ice cream contained enough pieces of Oreo cookie to justify the price tag of nearly three dollars and …
McDonald’s McSkillet Burrito
We had been hearing all the commercials about the McDonald’s McSkillet Burrito and seen where they talked about it on a couple of morning news programs, as nutrition experts decried how many calories and grams of fat this breakfast item had. Of course, this piqued our curiosity. …
Dairy Queen French Fries
I don’t know much about how Dairy Queen French Fries are prepared, but they are closer to what I like than many other fast food places are. I am someone who really loves a good side order of French fries, or if I get a combo meal it …
Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle
Recently, I got brave and tried out a new product: Kraft Sandwich Shop Mayo - Chipotle flavor. They actually have four new sandwich spreads, the others being hot and spicy, horseradish - Dijon, and garlic & herb. I ended up with two flavors, so in the future …
Lays Barbecue Flavor Potato Chips
Oddly, as a child I really didn’t like Lays Barbecue Flavor Potato Chips. It wasn’t the Lays brand, but the barbecue taste didn’t appeal to me. We had it alot because my sister preferred it over the classic chips. However, as did some other foods, the …
Taco Bell Volcano Taco
I like spicy food, crunchy tacos, and nacho cheese, so I thought I would like Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for sure. Unfortunately, I was wrong. The Volcano Taco was very disappointing, and I’m glad I had the rest of their box meal to fall back on.
I found the …

Sunkist Green Tea
Buying a Sunkist Green Tea is a good decision not. I guess though it was just about Php13.00, or $0.30. This is how much it was sold in supermarkets; I just saw in some convenient stores they sell it for Php4.00 more. I just love trying out …

Totino’s Crispy Crust Party Pizza
Despite its rather festive and unusualy name, Totino’s Cripy Crust Party Pizza is actually a very simple product. It is an affordable and tasty frozen pizza product. Although some frozen pizzas have gotten elaborate and as expensive as ordering pizza from a pizzeria, Totino’s Pizzas are still …
Nestle Coffee-mate Coffee Creamer

I tried this gold wrappered chocolate lollipop the other day as I was rushing in between appointments and wanted a quick treat. As a lollipop, this one will appeal to anyone, child or adult. Unlike most lollipop’s, which are very sweet, this one is almost, but not quite, bitter …
Little Debbie Easter Egg Brownies
Despite all the fancy and colorful coloring, these Little Debbie Easter Egg Brownies are really no different from Little Debbie’s other brownie products, like the fudge and cosmic varieties. The brownie is the same as is the flavor, essentially. The only difference pretty much is the colorful Easter design …

Pringles Original Chips - 0.81-Ounce Units
I really do not recommend purchasing these units no matter when you plan on using them, be it on the go, work, picnic or anything. The reason I do not recommend these units is because they are a bit too pricey for the amount of chips that comes in …

I found myself wandering the snack aisle at Wal-Marts yesterday and marveled at all the new choices of snack cakes and treats. Since I often pack a few items in my son’s backpack and he always ignores anything I consider healthy, I figured I budge a little …
Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes
The Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes are sold only at Walmart stores as this is a Walmart brand product. For twelve cakes, the price for a box is two dollars. I feel that the price for these cakes is fair considering the quantity and quality. The cakes never taste …

Old Dutch All Dressed Potato Chips
Old Dutch All Dressed Potato Chips are easily some of the most forgettable chips that I have ever tried. While that certainly is not a good thing, it actually is not a terribly bad thing, either. The reason I say that is because while the potato chips do not …
