General Mills Boo Berry Cereal
General Mills Boo Berry cereal is a very sweet cereal. There’s far more sugary sweetness than berry flavoring to this cereal, and that was disappointing. There’s some blueberry-flavored cereal pieces, but the blueberry flavoring is so faint that the moment that I taste the blueberry, it’s gone. What is …

Tesco Value Spicy Curry Flavour Noodle Snack
This Spicy Curry Flavour Noodle Quick Snack is from Tesco’s Value range and it only cost a mere 32p or thereabouts. Sometimes these really cheap, economy products turn out to be not so bad and sometimes they are so disgusting that it is just false economy to buy …
General Mills Count Chocula Cereal

The reason why I bought Oishi Berri Plunge is its packaging. It has a cute packaging; the color is pink with red lettering. The color looks appealing to me maybe because I am a girl. There is a picture of the flakes on the packaging; however, it does not …

Great Value: Chocolate Cupcakes

Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee
Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee offers a little taste of heaven. Considering the standard retail price of one sachet which is only PHP5, that is quite a feat! I’ve always patronized nescafe. However, before they introduced the 3 in 1 product, I could never get the flavor …

Jennie-O So Easy Turkey Parmesan
