Our Family Corn Dogs
Product description: Box of frozen, battered corn dogs. I found them on sale for $1.99 this past Sunday.

Knorr’s instant chicken delight soup mix
I love to eat chicken soup, but the process of making chicken soup is lengthy, so I bought this instant soup from “Knorr”. This soup is really easy to make, even a child can make this. I took a pan, and pour water in it, and I pour all …

Weetabix as an Economical, Healthy Breakfast
The humble breakfast cereal is often dismissed by the public as just so much junk. Its supposed health benefits are discussed and highlighted in TV adverts; it is used as an example of healthy eating, yet most are little more than excuses for manufacturers to sell sweet things disguised …
Busy Baker Snack Crackers
I was in the mood for something to snack on at work this morning but I didn’t really have a whole lot of money with me (my paycheck doesn’t show up in my bank account until mid-day) so I had to settle for something that was about $1.
I ended …

Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace
Maitre Pierre Tarte d’Alsace is not so easy to spell, and even harder to say, but the meal certainly is one that I enjoyed! It is somewhat like a pizza, although it lacks cheese and tomato sauce. The crispy crust is wonderfully flaky. It tastes great, too. Then there …
Judge Chewing Gum
Judge chewing gum is one of the most favorite chewing gums of the kids here in the Philippines. My son loves it. I too have come to like it. Well, it’s in small square size. But what I like about it is it’s minty flavor. It’s not too strong …
M&M’s Plain Chocolate
This brand has been around for ages. I think I started eating M&M’s when I was still a little kid. For some reason, this has always been one of my favorite chocolate pieces. More so than Toblerone, kisses and such. (Although I would have to say that the plain …
Little Debbie Snacks Zebra Cakes
Little Debbie Snacks Zebra Cakes offer a welcomed change of pace from all the chocolate snacks and dessert items in the grocery store today. Now, there is some chocolate to be found on these cakes - they are called Zebra cakes after all - but the amount of chocolate …

Rellenong Bangus
Lately we had a lot of bangus (milkfish) in our house. There are some nice people that keep on selling these bangus on a cheap deal. The bangus sold are even big, just that it isn’t that tasty. For the past few weeks, we didn’t eat anything except dishes …

Because of my previous experience with the Lean Pocket Philly cheese steak, I wanted to expand my lunch menu to another pastry sandwich: The Lean Pocket ham and cheese. I’ve had the Hot pocket ham and cheese and they are the best, so I thought the Lean Pocket ham …
Chocolate Ecstasy Ice Cream
New Zealand Natural Ice Cream is pretty hard, especially around me but it’s also really good. Unfortunately it’s also a little expensive so I consider it a luxury item and not something I’d buy unless I had a good week or a little extra money to spare. When I …
Homemade Hot Chocolate
I am a devoted fan of hot chocolate, and I will drink it all year long no matter what the temperature is. And sure there are plenty of brands of instant hot chocolate packed away in paper packages that need nothing more than to just add water. However, ever …

Thai & Co. Restaurant and Bar London
I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. From the outside it looks smart, clean and tasteful, with its wooden floors and attractive oriental designs. It has a very clean-cut and modern feel to it, and it has a sense of minimalism, which immediately makes …
Sara Lee Classic Dinner Rolls
Fairly new on the market are Sara Lee Classic Dinner Rolls. Sara Lee has come a long way over the last decade. No longer a dessert mainstay, they are into everything. They even own the Jimmy Dean sausage products that I love so much, and they …
Marie Callender’s Rigatoni Marinara Classico
Marie Callender’s has a bunch of new flavors out for their Fresh Flavor Steamer line. I’ve tried a couple of the original ones and wasn’t that impressed, but these new flavors sounded enticing, so I began with Rigatoni Marinara Classico which, per the package, is “Rigatoni in a …
Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry Chocolate
I have heard about Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry Chocolate from my friends and seen about it on TV but I have not tried it. I like cherry and chocolate together. I was an exclusive diet coke drinker in the past.
But in the last year I had some problems …
Nestle Bear brand sterilized full cream milk
I love drinking milk since I was a child and what my parents gave me before it’s Nestle bear brand sterilized full cream milk. It is available in a can that is ready to drink.And until now I prefer this brand than any other fresh milk.
When I went for …
Tostitos Salsa Con Queso Medium
Tostitos Salsa Con Queso Medium is a dipping sauce that goes great with tortilla chips. I like this dipping sauce quite a bit because it’s more than a Monterey Jack cheese dipping sauce. It’s got other ingredients mixed in there that give the dipping sauce extra flavor and a …
Bulls-eye Texas Style Barbecue Sauce

Bakers Inn Sliced Bakery Bread
I am not at all hesitant to reveal that I have found the bread of all breads right at my local supermarket! Bakers Inn produces sliced breads that come in a brown bag, and they are fabulous. I really feel like I am eating fresh bread each …
Nature’s Nectar 100% Juice Mango Tangerine
One-hundred percent fruit juice isn’t always priced at what I consider to be an affordable amount of money. Without sales or coupons, juice that isn’t diluted with water generally runs for over three dollars. It’s for that reason that when I came across the Nature’s Nectar brand of mango …
Smucker’s Cider Apple Butter
Smucker’s Cider Apple Butter is simply delightful in both flavor and texture. It is, I think, my favorite flavor to spread on top of toast and bagels. The cider apple butter is quite rich and delicious in flavor, and the butter part not only gives the spread some additional …

Nestle is a very good and old company which produces many kind of chocolates and other such milk products. And now I am going to share my experience about using the Nestle Milo health drink, which I used for my kids. I had heard a lot about …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Pizza
This is most certainly not one of Pringles most successful creations, in my opinion. In fact, I would really rate this flavor variety quite low because I did not think of pizza when I tried one of these chips. I know what pizza tastes like because I eat it …
Podravka Ketchup
I really like ketchup but I can’t eat every ketchup because I really don’t like those sweet ones which don’t even taste like ketchup. I’ve tried a lot of different ketchups in my life and I hated more of them than I liked them. Even some of the very …
Nesquick Strawberry Syrup
I just recently tried the Nesquick syrup in strawberry flavor. It is great on top of ice cream, mixed with milk, or in a milkshake. It has excellent sweet strawberry flavor, and at $2.49/16oz is a good value for it’s size. The syrup is thick- with a consistency thicker …
Maxwell House Half-Caff Coffee
My boyfriend and I are usually faithful Nescafe drinkers. However, we ran out of coffee and a friend was nice enough to give us a brand new jar of Maxwell House Half-Caff. I wasn’t too keen on the whole Half-Caff idea at first, but after thinking about how much …
Great Taste Coffee Desserts in Black Forest
I love coffee. I love desserts. And I love the coffee desserts manufactured by Universal Robina Corporation. I have tasted all of them, and although my all-time favorite flavor for coffee, coffee creamer, ice cream or cake is hazelnut, the Great Taste Coffee Desserts in Black Forest is running …
Tang Pineapple Orange Powdered Juice Drink
I always supplement my diet with a glass of juice so that I can have better appetite in eating. Pineapple Orange is one of the best flavors. When I go to the restaurant to eat, I choose this flavor when there is no available “Four Seasons”. Del Monte has …
Quaker Cinnamon Life
I bought Quaker Cinnamon Life while out shopping with my daughter because it was on sale for $1.99/box. I had planned to find Kellogg’s Crispix, but couldn’t pass up the price on the Life. Cereal takes a big chunk of the budget these days.
Well, I had my …
Atkinson’s Long Boys
Atkinson’s Long Boys were a new type of candy for me, though not for the rest of the world. These candies have been around for at least 60 years, but I had never heard of them before. I’m the type of person who loves to try new things no …
Stouffer’s lasagna with meat and sauce
