Elmer Candy: You’re a Purr-fect Valentine box
For me, the joy of holidays sometimes mean treating myself to seasonal candies I wouldn’t normally buy, especially if they are on sale. Recently, I took a chance on Elmer Candy: You’re a Purr-fect Valentine box of candies.
The box is heart shaped and features an adorable kitty cat …
Lowes Foods seltzer,tonic water or club soda
I’m not really much for one to drink tonic water or club soda. However, it does really well for getting out stains from the carpets and some of the clothes that we wear. I buy Lowes Foods seltzer,tonic water or club soda to keep on hand for quick …
Honey Bun - Cinnamon Roll
As a product of Jamaica, the company label Honey Bun which produces the ‘microwave me’ Cinnamon Roll did a very good job, but to me, it was a little too late as I discovered the microwave method long before they have placed it on their label. LOL. But as …
Mrs. Freshley’s Doughnut Sticks
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Doughnut Sticks to be a tasty treat to have every once and a great while. Granted, these doughnut sticks are not quite as fresh as the doughnuts that can be purchased at the local doughnut shop or the doughnuts that are sold behind the glass …
Diamond Crystal Popcorn and Nut Salt
Although I can’t say much for the butter popcorn topping that this company makes, I can say that they did a superb job with this popcorn salt. What I like about this popcorn salt is that it’s not like regular salt. Regular salt is real small in size and …
Nestle Coffee Mate Creamer
Before, I wasn’t fond of putting creamer on my coffee. I’m just enjoying the bittersweet taste of the coffee. It was just recently when I got addicted to the coffee-plus-creamer combination. And it’s all because of Nestle Coffee Mate that I started my obsession. Anyway, our family is a …
Hershey’s Cookies and Mint Candy Bar
This is my favorite andy bar ever. About 10 years ago these candy bars were availibel everywhere Hershey bars were sold, so you could pick them up at the gas station, grocery store etc,. the one day, suddenly, they were gone.
Recently I have found them at a few locations …
Hawaiian Punch- Fruit Juicy Red
Hawaiian Punch is kind of ehh.. wishy washy with me? I just had it today for the first time in about 6 months and I thought it was the best! I saw some earlier today sitting in a school trash can half dranken and it made me want some! …
Bajadera Kras
This is a very unique tit bit, it carries the label of Croatian Creation, and it is the first and only product that carries that label. It won golden medals on different fairs because f its high quality. It is made of fine nougat blended with almonds which gives …
Emerald Cocoa Roast Almonds (Dark Chocolate Flavor)
For anyone wanting to get more nuts in their diet, this is the perfect product, even if you don’t like the taste of nuts. Almonds are very healthy and a great way to get protein if you don’t eat meat. The light dusting of cocoa powder makes them an …
Friendly Farms All Natural Almond Milk Chocolate
Almond milk is a wonderful substitute to have in place of traditional dairy milk. In many respects, it’s a healthier, albeit a little pricier, alternative, that’s great to have if one doesn’t mind the somewhat nutty taste that it has. It is made from almonds after all, so it’s …
IttiBitz Cotton Candy Ice Cream
IttiBitz Cotton Candy ice cream is a sweet, delight I found in the ice cream aisle of super Wal-Mart. It’s pretty small but the flavor packs a mean punch if you’re into cotton candy.
IttiBitz is one of those “dots” ice cream; not exactly from the company Dots, but it …
Hunt’s Tomato Ketchup
There is a lot that I like about Hunt’s Tomato Ketchup, although there are some things that I feel could be improved that would make this ketchup even better. First though, let me say that this is a really rich ketchup that does a superb job of adding a …
Knorr Fiesta Sides Taco Rice
I like tacos on occasion, so I thought that maybe I’d like this particular Fiesta Side from Knorr. Turns out though that this Fiesta Side doesn’t really remind me of tacos and it also didn’t impress me all that much, either. What this Fiesta Side essentially is is rice, …
Arby’s Large Roast Beef
Arby’s has worked on changing their image for a number of years now, offering more upscale items such as their market-fresh sandwiches and other items. What it all comes down to in my mind though is the roast beef. They’ve always been the place to go for the best …
Edwards Singles Chocolate Creme Pie
A while back, I tried an Edwards product for the first time and was just insanely happy with it, so recently, I purchased a couple of their other offerings to see if lightning could strike twice. One of these was Edwards Singles Chocolate Creme Pie. I’m not a …
Kellogg’s Low Fat Granola With Raisins
Kellogg’s Low Fat Granola With Raisins is a tasty cereal that is also pretty nutritious as well! In this cereal is no bad ingredients such as hydrogenated fats or trans fat. I can feel good about eating this cereal knowing that I am not ingesting ingredients that are bad …
Mizone - Orange Lime
To keep healthy, everyday at least we must drink eight glass of water, but I really difficult to do it. I’m the kind of person who not drink water much, maybe thats why my skin feels dry. But, to keep my body from dehidration, I like to drink Mizone. …
Jack-N-the-Box French Fries
Jack-n-the-box fries are pretty disappointing because I expected them to taste a lot better. Jack-n-the-box has a lot of really great offerings, which is why I stop by the fast food place whenever I get the chance, which isn’t that often. I love a lot of their different foods, …
Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bar
Well, I can taste the chocolate, but not so much the raspberry in these Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bars. The chocolate is definitely quite prominent as it is on the outside and on the inside. The outside chocolate is dark chocolate while the chocolate on the inside …
Great Value: Original Potato Chips
I used to purchase these Great Value: Original Potato Chips before I tried the ripple potato chips one day, and since I tried the ripple chips, I have not purchased these since and I do not see myself purchasing them again. While there is really nothing wrong with these …
Nonni’s Biscotti Cioccolati
When it comes to endulging in a wonderfully authentic-seeming Italian cookie, Nonni’s Biscotti can’t be beat!
Although they are made either with one edge dipped in chocolate or not, I definitely prefer the chocolate for the additional flavor layer and texture it provides. Crunchy and hard with toasted almond slivers, …
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Wheat Bread
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Wheat Bread was tried by me for taking a break from usual white breads that I buy and also because of health conscious decision to get some whole grains in the diet. As the name suggest, the bread was soft and smooth. To my …
Best Choice Bran Cereal with Raisins
I am one of those shoppers who is not afraid to try a generic product if the price is right! One product I recently tried was our store’s generic version of Raisin Bran Cereal, best Choice Bran Cereal with Raisins. I am the only one in my …
Great Value Flame-Broiled Hamburger
Two Great Value Flame-Broiled Hamburgers come in a package at Walmart for two dollars and thirty cents. The hamburgers are individually wrapped and come on sesame buns. The hamburgers can either be cooked in the oven or microwave. Since the hamburger patties come already positioned on the sesame buns, …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Arctic Strawberry
This sorbet treat is quite similar to the Del Monte Strawberry Snow Storm tubes. In fact, there’s no noticeable difference in taste. What is different, and this is pretty inconsequential, at least for me, is that one, namely the sorbet, comes in a cup and is eaten with a …
Mrs. Field’s Cookies
I was rather surprised to find that Mrs. Field’s cookie shop in my local mall, wanted four dollars for five cookies! Now, I could perhaps understand this price if the cookies were cake-sized, but rather, they are more morsel-like in size. So, while their marketing ploy to …
Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets
Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets were always my favorite out of the whole Tastykake line of baked goodies. I have eaten the peanut butter Kandy Kakes and the chocolate cup cakes, but I think there is something about the Butterscotch Krimpets that makes them the best. I love the flavor of …
Maestrani Swiss organic chocolate raspberry
I must say that I was expecting much more of this chocolate. When you read Swiss on the chocolate wrapping you immediately know you are going to have a treat, especially if the wrapping itself looks very expensive too. Bio is a synonym for health in my head so …
Pizza Hut Star Pops
Just a couple of months ago, I learned about Star Pops from a commercial. I do buy Pizza most of the time as a treat for my family whenever I received my paycheck. It is always a party at home whenever I bring home Pizza. I do bring two …
Edy’s Slow Churned Rich & Creamy Vanilla Yogurt Blends
I always thought that Edy’s ice creams were good. When I saw that they had frozen yogurt, I was curious about these products. I ended up trying their vanilla flavor. I love frozen yogurt but I personally rarely see it in grocery stores, so I don’t often have access …
Coffee Bean And Tea Leaf Cafe
Coffee Bean And Tea Leaf is a cafe located on the second floor of Robinson Mall. I have been going to this place a lot of times because I like this place. It serves a lot of food, but they are different from the usual things served at most …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Tesco Crunchy Peanut Butter
I must admit I’m a peanut butter fanatic. I’ll eat it on toast, in sandwiches with jam and in quite a few other variations. My favorite brand was Sunkist, and I say WAS because for some reason it began to lose its special taste and texture that I …
Mr. Pudding - Vanilla
I’ve only seen Mr. Pudding pudding products at ALDI, and I think I know why: they just aren’t that good. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla pudding, and the same can be said for the chocolate pudding, too. Four cups come in a pack and each cup is three …
Betty Crocker Mac and Cheese: Grilled Cheese Flavor
I previously tried the original flavor of Betty Crocker Mac and Cheese and liked it fairly well. I initially expected it to taste like kraft Mac and cheese, but I was surprised instead to find that it didn’t.
Betty Crocker Mac and Cheese Grilled Cheese Flavor is different from …
Anchor Butter
My favourite brand of butter is Anchor butter as I am yet to taste another brand of butter that can even come close to competing with it. I first tasted it when I would go to my grandmother’s house when I was very little and she would make breakfast …
Koestlin Saltas peanuts
Koestlin Saltas peanuts are actually salted sticks filled with natural peanuts. I really like peanuts in everything so when I found out that they started making sticks with peanuts filling I had to try them out. I don’t usually eat sticks but since they started making these with peanuts …
Munchies Traditional Mix
Munchies Traditional Mix is a pretty average, run of the mill type of mix that does not really do anything different or special to set it apart from the other snack mixes that can be found in grocery stores and supermarkets. It is actually a mix that is inferior …
Happy Farms Deluxe American Cheese Slices
Happy Farms Deluxe American Cheese Slices retails for three dollars and thirty cents for twenty-four slices. It’s a good cheese that I have no complaints towards, but it’s a cheese that I won’t be purchasing again simply because I can get the same exact cheese and the same number …
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix is not something I will purchase again. The reason is, it just does not taste that much better than the pound cake I purchase already made in the grocery store. Why should I go through the trouble of making my own pound cake from …
Good day biscuits
The good day biscuits available in India are very tasty and delicious, they are full of cashew nuts and it just easily melts in your mouth when u eat them. They are high in calories but very tasty and good to eat whenever u are hungry as a …
Coke Zero No Sugar
I made a promise to myself to cut down my intake of carbonated drinks and make it a habit instead of drinking more water. But sometimes it is really very tempting specially after a heavy meal or during a tired day or when you have to fight the urge …
Entenmann’s Cinnamon Swirl Buns
I much prefer the cinnamon swirl buns with raisins compared to Entenmann’s 8 Cinnamon Swirl Buns. The reason for my preference is twofold. First of all, I like raisins, so naturally, I would prefer the variety that actually contains raisins. Second of all, the raisins gave the bun some …
Nescafe 3in1 classic
I rarely buy instant coffee drinks because I consider that a waste of money but I also like to have it at home because sometimes I really don’t feel like making coffee for myself only and then I prepare myself an instant coffee drink which is a coffee and …
Milo Food Drink
The Drink “Milo” must be as old as time itself since I initially thought it was a drink which came here in the nineties when I was a little girl, but my mother said recently that she used to drink it too as a child. Nevertheless, even though I …
Arizona Sweet Tea Southern Style
I am from the southern United States where our staple foods include fried chicken, collard greens, corn bread, and sweet tea. When it comes to drinking sweet tea, I am just like all southern people who believe the sweetness of the tea is an indicator of how good …
Private Selection Penne Rigate
Most of the time I buy rice pasta but it is not as easy to come by. I have to drive all the way to my closest Trader Joe’s, which isn’t too close or I have to pay too much for some online. Since I don’t have celiac disease …
Mac n Cheese
I have a confession to make. When the chill of winter sets in, on many a Friday night all I want to do is plant myself in front of my non-existent fireplace with a heaping pot of the gluey orange stuff. No date or dinner out with friends can …
McCormick Sausage Flavor Country Gravy
By just stirring in 2 cups of water and bringing this powdered mix to a boil, you can have a tasty gravy to put on fried chicken or biscuits. A little heavier on the black pepper than I might have originally wanted, still it’s an easy and relatively quick …
