I drink a lot of pepsi. So when pepsi came out with their pepsi points I was thrilled because it meant I could get a little something back from all the money I spend on their product. I like most people am skeptical though of contest though at first. …

I should say not all buns are the same. I have tasted far better Chinese buns than what I have had for dinner today; but of course this isn’t the worst of them all. I am talking about “siopao buns”. Ministop a convenient store has these kind of buns …

Walmart’s brand, Great Value, makes many generic alternatives in almost any category. Last week I purchased a powdered drink mix made by (or distributed by) Walmart, made to be similar to name brand “Crystal Light.” It is sugar free, sweetened with aspartame, and has five calories per serving.
I wasn’t …

Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Chicken Rising Crust Spinach & Garlic Pizza is a twelve-inch frozen pizza that sells for three dollars and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. I haven’t come across this brand of pizza anywhere else, but other stores that specialize in off-brands nay carry the …

I am a big fan of Garlic breads and so as my daughter is. I make garlic bread at home using French bread but it is quite a hassle as there are so many brands of garlic breads available in stores at a reasonable price. I usually bought frozen …

Twinkies Golden Sponge Cake is a snack that I used to enjoy more as a kid than I do as an adult. I used to like the sponge cake texture and taste, but now it kind of disgusts me. The creme on the inside is still pretty tasty and …

My husband just loves Entenmann’s donuts. He thinks they are the greatest, and this is what convinced me to try them. They come in boxes of 8, fairly large donuts. They come in different varieties as well. There are boxes of mixed assortements (regular, powdered …

I make it a special point to always try any grilled chicken breast sandwich that is offered at a franchise restaurant for two reasons. One, it’s a healthier option than a hamburger. Two, these restaurants offer the chicken breast sandwich out of obligation for those who don’t …

Cadbury’s Star Bar is one of my favourite chocolate bars. Before writing this review, I nipped onto Wikipedia to remind myself when they first came out as I have been buying these regularly since the 1980s. Interestingly, it pointed out that this Star Bar only exists because …

M&M’s have been one my favourite milk chocolate in color coated candy form. I like it better over the original peanut version of this chocolate. Infact, the minis are small in size and looks very cute. Easy to attract my son when he becomes cranky with few of …

Jell-o Gelatin - Peach variety is one that I only have every so often. I am not much of a peach eater, but I do have one from time to time. I am the same way with this gelatin, I simply have it from time to time. The peach …

Tea is one of my favorite drinks to sip on throughout the day. Because I love tea so much, I am a very big critic of it. I absolutely hate harsh teas that leave a sour taste in my mouth. I recently saw a bottle of tea on sale …

Betty Crocker wild blueberry muffin mix is a discovery I just made on my last grocery shopping venture. When it comes to large boxes of muffin mix, I tend to stay away from them because A) I have a preferred muffin mix and 2) there is too much muffin …

The Goldilocks Black Forest Cake has always been my preference when it comes to Black Forest Cake. It is only the Black Forest Cake that has perfect sweetness and it does not have too much wine too. It is not like other Black Forest Cakes that has very noticeable …

We had barbecue for dinner last night and one of the side dishes we ended up making was green beans from the brand Wylwood.
I’m familiar with this brand and have had no major complaints about it. And, once again, the brand did not disappoint.
First, there was a large quantity …

I’ve been a coffee drinker for several years now. Typically, I used to drink Walmart brand, or Great Value brand coffee. It is very affordable and has a decent taste. However, just a couple of weeks ago I discovered a new favorite kind of coffee that I now drink …

I am lover of instant coffee. To be more precise, I like it strong, sweet - and preferably cool. And yet, I am not a great fan of iced coffee… with the exception of one single brand: Jacobs Ice Coffee.
I have noticed there are two “ice coffee” produced by Jacobs. …

Durian is an exotic fruit grown mostly in Asia, mostly in Thailand, Malaysia and the Philippines. Here in my country the Philippines, durian is grown mostly in the Southern part of the country, largely in Davao, although the surrounding towns have also successfully grown this only in the past …

I bought this product from Kroger on sale for $2.35 this past October hanging in the refrigerated cheese section and I thought it would be an easy way to switch up the chicken that I was going to make for dinner that night. It comes with all the bread …

Pizza Hut has started a new trend and it’s growing. Other pizza chains are doing this as well now, and that’s serving up pasta orders for delivery as well as inside the restaurants. I’ve been very hesitant to try these pastas, but a recent promotion was good …

I had never really been a Honey Bun fan until recently when I was given a honey bun at a friend’s house as a breakfast food item. I should say off the bat, these things aren’t good for you. I don’t remember the exact numbers but I remember thinking …

I just purchased a box of Chung’s Pork Egg Rolls and they are excellent. There are 4 egg rolls in a box, each egg roll is about the size of the ones you would get in a Chinese restaurant. They can be prepared in the microwave or in the …

I really enjoy eating planters honey roasted peanuts. Im not usually a fan of mixed nuts, or even just regular peanuts. The honey roasted however are a great combination of salty and sweet that I really enjoy eating.
You can usually purchase the honey roasted planters nuts from the same …

I’m not a person who eats a ton of fish. It used to be one of my favorite foods but it is so darn expensive when you try to buy it at the store; even fish sticks.
However, my wife and I have been eating it more often now so …

Breakfast for me is usually a egg and sausage sandwich, and almost always eaten while I am on the go. Then there are the moments when I can sit down to a nice plate of breakfast. One product that I’ve come to enjoy with both of these methods of …

I’m not a huge hamburger helper meal lover. I’ve tried the no name hamburger helper meals and decided in the future I would pass. This one the Family Size Lasanga Hamburger Helper by Betty Crocker was actually pretty good.
It comes in a 335g box that includes egg noodles and …

I’ve purchased See’s Old Fashioned Milk Chocolate Drops for years from the local See’s store.. A lot of shoppers actually purchase these drops to use for baking in cookies and such, but one day one of the clerks mentioned that she kept them around as a treat. …

I’ve been a coffee lover since I started working straight out of college. Since I’m not used to offices where the air cons are adjusted too low for me to tolerate, one of the things I do to warm myself up is by drinking mugs of coffee. We own …

I used to drink quite a lot of Diet Coca Cola but recently Pepsi Max has been on special offer so I’ve taken to drinking that. Today though I picked up a small 500ml bottle of Diet Coke and I can honestly say I don’t know why I …

The new Cherry 7 up Antioxidant tastes disgusting. I have a weakness for anything that uses the word antioxidant. Antioxidants are known to help decrease cancer risk and because I have undergone cancer (ovarian twice and breast once) three times in my thirty two years of life, …

Among all the snacks and chocolate bars Mars is not my favourite one, it is not even very high on my list. I used to eat them only while I was little and my father was buying them. For me Mars, Snickers, Bounty and Twix are in the same …

I am concerned about keeping my family healthy, as are most mothers. I have been pleased at the deluge of more healthful items available in the regular grocery stores as of late. In particular, I have been very happy with Kellogg’s new organic Rice Krispies and Frosted Mini-Wheat’s cereals.
In …

So, I was at my mother’s house the other day and she and my sister were discussing the New McDonald’s Frappe drinks. Apparently they received free coupons in the mail to try them with. Immediately I thought how unfair, I didn’t receive any free coupons. Low …

I have tried Koka noodle tin. It is ready made noodle tin. Just add hot water to this tin and eat , that’s all. No need to cook, no need to boil, no need to add vegetables or spices. A small pack of masala powder and green pease, corn …

Good Flow Austin’s Own Good flow Honey Green Tea, by the brand Texas Tea, is a beverage I had the opportunity to try one busy afternoon. I was in the mood for something other than water and for something that wasn’t carbonated. So to say a bottle of tea …

The Cloverhill Bakery - Cinnamon Bun is not something that I will be looking to purchase again because I did not enjoy the bun all that much aside from the soft dough. Oh sure, it was definitely sweet, but the problem I have is, there is too much emphasis …

It’s getting close to spring time and spring and summer bring hot temperatures. When it gets that hot it’s time to find something to cool you down. Wendy’s new frosty float is the perfect option on those hot days to do just that. Wendy’s restaurants have their own version …

I really like this entrée. I continually find that Lean Cuisine has great offerings and knows how to both make typically “unhealthy” meals healthy, and knows how to make healthy meals taste great that might not otherwise would. Their Salmon with Basil Frozen Entrée is an example, in my …

Stouffer’s Smoked Turkey Club Panini is not quite as good as some of Stouffer’s other frozen sandwiches, but I nonetheless still enjoyed the sandwich and will likely purchase it again now and then. The smoked turkey slices have a good flavor to them, and I am not even that …

As a vegan who has experimented with almost all types of main brands of soymilk, I would have to say by far the best tasting one is Silk Chocolate Soymilk.
I have been drinking this stuff for years now, and have still not become tired of it. For those of …

I’m a huge peanut butter fan and everything peanut butter flavoured immediately goes into my cart. I really love Reese’s peanut butter cups, however, I’ve been hearing a lot about Justin’s Dark Chocolate peanut butter cups lately, which are also organic, lower in sugar and vegan. I haven’t seen them …

Of all the candies, this one is a chocolate bar. Frankly, I don’t know why Cadbury labels this a candy, when it’s not a candy in the real sense. My idea of a candy is that it is most likely round, hard and sweet. But all …

On my quest for low fat healthy dinners, I recently bought Lean Cuisine’s Oriental Beef Stirfry dinner for $2.99CDN.
I had only ever had Lean cuisine chicken dinners before, so I was curious as to how good the beef one would be.
The meal looked great on the cardboard box. Lot’s …

I rarely eat corned beef because they have a taste that is not appealing to me, sometimes I try this canned beef but I end up losing my appetite because most of canned beef in the market today are coarse and dry. I like canned tuna more than corned …

I really like Betty Crocker supermoist cake mix. It is something that is easy to use and is a quality product. I have had several of their mixes and have never had one that I thought was bad. My latest purchase was Betty Crocker Supermoist White cake mix.
It makes …

I am the mother of 3 children and I did not have any problem with my first and second kid but when I had my 3rd baby, I did not have the sufficient milk to feed my little baby. I was very much worried about it, because I …

I bought a bottle of red wine at the weekend, not really thinking about what kind I was getting. It’s —˜Arniston Bay’ and it was on a special offer at one of the major supermarkets, so I decided to give it a try. It tuned out to be …

The Aro brown bread is big size bread and the shape of which is square. This bread is made using the wheat flour. And that is why it is called as brown bread. As I have already mentioned in my earlier reviews that the Aro branded …

Who doesn’t love Easy Mac??!?! When you are in college with only a microwave in your dorm room and the eatery is closed, what do you do? You pour the noodles in a bowl, pour some water in the bowl, put it in the microwave a few …

Although Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Chocolate is certainly an enjoyable and refreshing treat, it is not quite as rich and creamy as the premium homemade chocolate ice cream, also made by Blue Bunny. This original ice cream does not have quite as strong and delicious of a chocolate …
