Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake
Although this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake is not nearly as good as a cheesecake that is baked fresh or purchased already made from the grocery store, for the price that this item is sold at Super Wal*Mart, it is actually a decent deal. The cherry cheesecake, …
Trader Joe’s Handcrafted Cheese Enchiladas
I really wanted to like these cheese enchiladas. They looked so yummy and I generally really like frozen Mexican food. Unfortunately, I really wasn’t that impressed with them.
This nearly 10 ounce package provides two cheese enchiladas in a microwaveable container. However, the microwaving instructions were confusing. They tell you …
Snow Crab Clusters
As long as I can remember, seafood has always been a part of my diet. I originally started eating–I think–blue crabs, but it wasn’t until I was in high school when I discovered my new love for snow crab clusters.
Snow crab clusters are mainly the legs from the snow …
McCormick Original Taco Seasoning Mix
As I have begun to prepare more Mexican food at home, I have also been searching for a decent easy and quick mix for tacos. That is why I tried out McCormick Original Taco Seasoning Mix recently.

Sainsbury’s Harvest Grain Continental Bread Rolls
I love brown bread and obviously it has more fibre and health vitamins than white bread, but some brown rolls can taste a little bland and are a chore to eat. These on the other hand, are delicious and every bit as nice as a white continental bread …
Heinz Original Tomato ketchup
Of all the tomato ketchup that I could find in the supermarket I’ve always chose the Heinz ones not because of it is a well known name but because I’ve simply love it’s taste. Actually, Heinz tomato ketchup is almost perfect and I’ve always had it every time …
Dorina Hazelnut milk chocolates

Quaker Instant Oatmeal
Except for the fact that it tastes like my niece’s baby food, it’s really good. There are different flavors like chocolate and banana and honey, but we buy chocolate flavor more often. The other flavor reminds me of the taste of bottled baby food, and it grosses me out. …
Terra Yukon Gold Salt & Pepper Potato Chips
I found these chips by sheer coincidence. I was ordering a sandwich to be delivered from a restaurant, and the girl taking my order asked me what chips I would like with my sandwich. Well, not being the biggest chip fan, I hesitated. A coworker sitting with me said …
Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Belgian Milk Chocolate
I treated myself to a bar of this Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Belgian Milk chocolate today and I can tell you, this is really gorgeous chocolate and was a nice treat. This was only a smallish bar of 40g of chocolate measuring just over two inches by about …
Kelloggs Coco Pops

BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail
I have enjoyed BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail for some eight months (bought at a Sav-A-Lot store in Tucson at under two Dollars) especially for its pleasant raspberry flavor, even when diluted one part juice with two parts water. A 64 oz. bottle bought on May 10, 2007 - …
Nescafe Azera Barista Style Instant Coffee Range
I first decided to try the Azera coffee range when I became addicted to proper ground coffee but didn’t like the inconvenience of making it. I was never satisfied with the regular granules and found them harsh and bitter if I ever wanted to try them without milk.
Now this …

Trident White Chewing Gum
I love Trident White peppermint flavored chewing gum. My girlfriend bought that particular pack of gum, and now we both chew it. There’s something about the taste that isn’t as overbearing as other flavored gum. Okay, I’ll explain:
After brushing my teeth, I feel a light build-up of toothpaste still …
Sauces for Wings
I am a chicken wing lover. I know it’s not much meat on a chicken wing but I love them anyway. But wings that come with different flavors and spices make them much more delicious. I particulary like Carribean Jerk, Asian Zing, Teriyaki, and Mango Habanero. Some people think …
Tazo Passion Tea
The other day I purchased some Tazo tea and I thought that it would be worthy of a review. Now I’m a big tea snob, and won’t settle for just any kind of tea. I purchased Tazo’s Passion tea and I was expecting it to be like some other …
J Higgs Cashews
I recently purchased a container of J Higgs cashews during one of our rare trips to our local Save-a-Lot store. They were $2.99, but I figured it would be a nice snack to have whenever I’m sitting at watching TV.
Overall, this was a decent product. It wasn’t as good …
Pringles Multigrain Crisps Cheesy Cheddar
I really like the concept behind multigrain crisps. They’re like potato chips, except a little easier on the body because they contain parts of grains that contribute to a healthier heart and lower bad cholesterol. Now these crisps aren’t what I would consider a health food, not at all, …

Dove Peanut Butter chocolate bars

Bacon Cheese Whopper (Burger King)

Coca-Cola Zero
