Asda Smart Price Tinned Rice Pudding
If I had to sum up this rice pudding in 3 words, I would say, creamy, tasty and cheap.
I normally buy a proper brand rice pudding or buy my own, but I spotted these one week in my local Asda store going on special offer of 5p each! The …
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer is something I get from time to time, but those are rare times, mostly because it just cost so darn much. This is considered a big time treat for me, and as a result, I really only buy the product once or twice a …
Cascade Ice Sparkling Water organic Lemon Lime
Sparkling Water, is a beverage I can deeply appreciate, since it gives the same bubbly and fizz that one craves from soda. So to say when I spotted Cascade Ice Sparkling Water organic Lemon Lime, at my neighborhood Kroger, I was excited. I am no stranger to the brand …
Batchelors Classic Vegetable Condensed Soup
I have had some of this Classic Vegetable Condensed Soup from Batchelors for my supper tonight and it was totally delicious. I have had a bit of a craze on vegetable soup lately and this one is particularly tasty, one of the best soups in a can out …
Klondike Original Ice Cream
This brand of ice cream is one of those I like. Although I buy this regularly when I go shopping, this is not my best choice of ice cream. It is cheaper though compared to my favorite one so I still buy it and stock it in our fridge. …
Gourmet Select Party Mix
This six ounce snack mix from the Dollar Tree is pretty bland. There are only three kinds of snacks to be found in a bag: garlic toast, pretzels and wheat snacks. There are no cheese snacks or sweet snacks, just basically salt and garlic snacks. The flavors thus don’t …
Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey Chipotle Barbecue Sauce
I first tasted Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey Chipotle Barbecue sauce at my grandparents’ house. It was sent to my grandparents by my aunt from the United States. It tasted so good that I asked her to buy one for me too.
This sauce is one of …
Kelloggs Nutrigrain cereal bars
Kelloggs Nutrigrain cereal bars are delicious. They come in many different flavors. My favorites are the cherry and mixed berry. They are only 140 calories each and are a great breakfast substitute. They are mixed with whole grains and fruit filling in a soft …
Ben & Jerry’s Single-Serve Ice Cream
My wife and daughter ran out to Walmart yesterday afternoon and came home with Ben & Jerry Single-Serve ice cream cups as a treat.
I personally don’t really like ice cream all that much (just in ice cream sandwiches and bars) but did think this was an interesting concept. It …
Always Save Canned Kidney Beans
In recent months, my family and I have purchased off-brand versions of products in an effort to save money on our grocery bill. We now have our favorite generic brands that we trust to taste good and be a good value. However, one brand we do not like is …
KC Candy Super Mint
In my country there is a candy company by the name of KC Candy and they make lots of sweets. One of their newest candies is called Super Mint. I never gave this candy a second look as I passed in on the grocery store shelves because it held …
KFC Cheesy Meltz
I just bought the new product of KFC at their Trinoma Branch, I have been eyeing on this for quite sometime already every since I saw this in a poster in ther Makati Branch. Well, This new product claims to be toasted, cheesy and of course delicious. I must …
3 Musketeers with Cherry and Dark Chocolate
I have to admit that I don’t like cherry flavored things, and I really don’t like dark chocolate, especially cheap dark chocolate. Cheap dark chocolate tends to taste really bitter and kind of off, as if it is spoiled. I decided that I wanted to try these candy bars …
Mickey’s Malt Liquor
I think Mickey’s Malt Liquor has a great taste compared to other Malt Liquor’s. The beer is smooth and does not have a bad aftertaste. The bottle even looks cool. If you are just starting to drink Malt Liquor I would say this is the perfect 40oz to start …
Jose Ole Mini Tacos
I love tacos, but don’t like the mess involved with making them from scratch, and I just don’t get to Taco Bell as frequently as I’d like. I’ve tried various products in the past to try and satisfy my taco cravings, but Jose Ole Mini Tacos is the …
Great Value: Frozen Pancakes Buttermilk
Great Value: Frozen Pancakes Buttermilk are pretty bland and I did not enjoy them enough to purchase them again. One of the main reasons I did not care for these pancakes is because they felt apart very, very easily, which is no big surprise to me since water, not …
Swanson Pot Pies
Whenever I shop for pot pies, I try to balance quality with price. I want something that is filling and tastes great. But, I also hate spending more than a $1 each on them.
That’s why I ended up purchasing Swanson Turkey pot pies the other day. They looked like …
Great Value Sausage Breakfast Bowl
There is nothing like waking up in the morning to a home cooked breakfast , but who has the time to cook one from scratch. I absolutely love Great Value products , because they taste homemade and you can cook them in minutes. One of my favorite foods they …
Little Debbie Boston Creme Rolls
Wow oh wow are these Little Debbie Boston Creme Rolls deliciously tasty! Everything about these rolls I find simply scrumptious and Little Debbie did a simply superb job of recreating the flavor and texture of the original Boston creme roll, from the rich and flavorful creme to the wonderfully …
Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies
I do not find Entenmann’s Little Bites Brownies to be all that good at all. While there is most definitely a chocolate flavor baked into the brownies, there is not nearly enough to create a truly delicious brownie treat. These brownies could also be a little more moist than …
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Powdered
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Powdered are probably my favorite of the three Little Debbie mini-donut product line. The powdered sugar on these donuts can most definitely be messy, but the powdered sugar does give the donuts quite a lot of
flavor! One bite into one of these mini-donuts will result …
McDonald’s Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
I’d been craving a McDonald’s frozen strawberry lemonade ever since I’d been brainwashed by the commercials. It looks so cold and lemony. I love lemonade and live in the scorching hot dessert, so I wanted to try one of these lemonades really bad. I finally got the chance and …
Nugatti Hazelnut/Cocoa Spread 200g
I just found the perfect competition of Nutella, it’s Nugatti which I just bought for $1. I thought the packaging looked like Nutella, so I bought it. The price is about the same, although Nutella has a lot more content at 13 ounces. This is a …
Nestle Rolo Cookies
These lovely big cookies, called Rolo Cookies from Nestle, were going cheap at Sainsbury’s and I just had to have them. They only cost me 50 pence, reduced from one pound and for that you get five big, thick, crumbly cookies. They are called Rolo Cookies because …
Sobe Lifewater - Orange Tangerine
I have been looking for a long time for a good beverage that is going to keep me refreshed in the hot summer months and Sobe Lifewater really does the trick for me. Even though it is like $1 a bottle, there are a lot of times that you …
Value Choice Pizza
I do a lot of shopping at one of our locally owned grocery stores. And, as a result of that, I have seen the Value Choice pizzas they have offered for sale. However, they were selling them for about $1 and, since I could buy a slightly larger Totino’s …
Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton
Eating the right food is important to our health. Health experts advise us not to to eat too much instant food mainly because of the all the preservatives present on them. I remember one e-mail I read about the risk of eating too much instant noodles.
But being busy at …
Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties
I’ve been hearing about Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties for years, but I’ve never had them; at least, not to my knowledge. When presented with both a coupon and the item on sale recently, though, I decided to give them a try and see if they lived …
Country Kitchens Syrup LIte
This breakfast syrup product is definitely not worth trying. I bought some by mistake because the label on front had a sticker on it that hid the word “Lite”. I had been buying the company’s (Pinnacle foods group) regular County Kitchens syrup for some time and was happy with …
Breyers Caramel Praline Crunch
Breyers Caramel Praline Crunch is one of the better and tastier ice cream creations to come out of Breyers. First off, I am a real lover of caramel, and this ice cream definitely delivers on the caramel flavor. The caramel swirls are really pretty plentiful and offer up a …
Marie Callender’s Chicken Pot Pies 16.5oz Size
I try to cook from scratch, but there will always be a place in my freezer for premade oven bake meals for nights when I’m just not up to it and don’t want to make a mess of the kitchen. Besides, I don’t have the first clue as to …
M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies
There’s something about the smell of M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies that gets your attention right away. I’ve grown up eating these candy treats, so that’s decades worth of experience. The taste is consistently good, something helped out by the milk chocolate ingredient.
M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies …
Cherry Coke Zero
We were visiting my cousin recently and the only sugar free drink she had was cherry coke zero. I didn’t particularly like the regular coke zero, but thought I’d give the cherry one a try.
Much to my surprise I liked it! I haven’t had cherry flavored coke in …
Coffee Baileys
For Christmas this year my drink of choice was Baileys, as it is every year. This time however I decided to opt for their Coffee flavour to ring the changes. Baileys, for those of you who don’t know, is a cream liqueur which is usually drunk alone …
Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil
A few months ago I bought some Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil and oh man does this stuff have so many purposes. I use it for cooking, as a healthy supplement, and for beauty purposes. It is wonderful stuff and I will be always keeping this coconut oil on …
Recheks Food Pride Fresh Chicken Legs & Thighs
My parents surprised us the other day by buying a bunch of meat from Recheks Food Pride here in town and giving us half of it (money has been a bit tight after having the baby and they wanted to make sure we had something in our freezer).
One of …
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee is a decent instant coffee with a very smooth taste, but for me it just lacks in something. I am not sure if I am saying that it lacks in body or in strength, but for me, even if I put a really …
Hershey’s Drops - Cookies ‘n’ Creme
Branded as ‘New!’ at the top left of the package, this little bag of sweets called out to me. Being an avid lover of the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme chocolate bars, I felt that anything with, well, cookies and cream, couldn’t go wrong. So I bought it.
On the package …
Lay’s salt & vinegar flavored potato chips
You can find the bags of salt & vinegar flavored Lay’s in 2 sizes, but I always buy the big one as I’m really in love with this potato chips. It’s true that, like many other brands, they fill the bags with more air than potatoes, but that’s only …
Bird’s Eye Voila: Beef Lo Mein
Bird’s Eye Voila beef lo mein is another quick dinner I wanted to give a try because whenever I’m in the mall, my first thought is: Where is the Chinese food? I always order the chicken, rice, and vegetables; I’ve never given beef lo mein a try until I …
Oscar Mayer Deli-Creations
Last year, Oscar Mayer debuted its Deli-Creations line, and boy are they good! The goal behind the various sandwiches is to give the consumer ‘fresh baked taste in 60 seconds’. Amazingly, it’s true!
What I love about these handy lunch and dinner items is that everything you need …
Quorn Smoky Ham Style Slices
I had not had a ham sandwich for about twenty five years before trying these —˜vegetarian ham’ slices from the Quorn brand recently. I saw them in Tesco at the pretty low price of £1.20 for about eight slices. I had a craving for a ham sandwich …
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload!
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload! is an ice cream that I think will appeal to a majority of people that can’t get enough of peanut butter. There’s quite a lot of peanut butter flavor to this ice cream and it’s delightfully delicious, I think. First of all, the ice …
Alexia Crunchy Snacks - Waffle Fries Aged Cheddar Cheese
Alexia Crunchy Snacks - Waffle Fries Aged Cheddar Cheese is something that I used to snack on and have with sandwiches before I discovered Sun Chips. After I found, tried and loved Sun Chips, I never felt a desire to purchase these again. That is because the Sun Chips …

Settembrini cookies (Mulino bianco)
Possibly the best cookies from Mulino bianco, the line of baked goods made by Barilla, the famous Italian company —“ and that’s saying something¨!
True to their name, these “September cookies” contain a surprisingly high amount of delicious, moist and not overly sweet fig filling, sitting at the heart of a …
Nestle Bear Brand Busog Lusog Family Cereal Drink
Nestle Bear Brand launched its Busog Lusog Family Cereal Drink recently and I was given several packets of it. I have grown up with most of Nestle products, and Bear Brand is the milk that I grew up with, and so I thought that was an assurance of …
Bird’s Eye Voila Garlic Chicken
Some frozen foods are very good and satisfying. Some frozen foods are disgusting. Other frozen foods are in-between: you would eat them again if you had to, but given the choice, no way. Bird’s Eye Voila dinners come in many flavors and textures, and Garlic Chicken sounds pretty good, …
Zingo Sweet and Spicy Sauce
This is the new product that I have tasted from Del Monte which is also the maker of my favorite banana ketchup. We went for a grocery this week and I have bought this delicious sauce to taste since most of the dishes I prepare were fried so the …
