Campbell's Kitchen Classics Chicken Noodle Soup



$1.00 at Dollar Tree. Much tastier than their original chicken noodle soup that you gotta mix with water. Other than carrots, I enjoyed this soup. Bought 4 more cans later on. This was sold during the late summer in my area.

Mrs. Renfro's Hot Habanero Salsa



Found this branded salsa over at National Wholesale Liquidator for $1.49 on clearance. Tried it with Dollar Tree corn chips and had mixed feelings about it; the salsa was tasty but was seriously hot. I had to drink a good amount of water to compensate for the hotness. Probably would but it again for same price.

Crider Chicken Bologna



Found this product over at Dollar Tree for $1 and this is the best bologna that I ever had; very delicate and has the right amount of salt to it. Bought 10+ cans later and then some. I recommend this bologna if you like bologna meat.

Pampa Lightly Smoked Herring Fillets in Oil



Very blandish and almost unsalted herring fillets. Wouldn't buy them again.

Eden's Kitchen Choice Pineapple Slices in Light Syrup




Not as good as Dole or Del Monte, but not bad for a generic pineapple slices, and the quantity for $1 bring it as a good value.

Chef Boyardee Chicken Alfredo




The pasta was blandish as well as low flavor to the sauce, that hinted on artificial ingredients. It was okay but I didn't like it much. Another thing is that I didn't have time for that; I did, but who does that?! Fuck that shit, but I'd probably eat it again, if I had no other choice. Its okay.

Garden Made Cauliflower Georgian Style



Found this open jar of cauliflowers in sauce at my grandparents' place, took sample bite and ate whatever was in the jar - it was that good. I checked the Russian stores in my area and none of them carry it in stock. If I will find any more of these jars, I will buy at least 4 of them.

Manco Pride Corned Beef

Decent corned beef other than being a bit too salty. It was $3.50 at the Deals store.

Breckenridge Farms Zesty Dill Spears



These zesty dill spears from the Deals store cost just $1.00 per jar and they are great: nice-n'-vinegar-briny just like I like them. Sometimes I just eat them plain, and sometimes in a sandwich. They run out of these pretty frequently, and are out of stock for several weeks before the store gets a new shipment of them of dozen or so boxes with 12 jars to a box.

Premium Chunk Chicken with Ketchup

This one is from 2008, when I tried dieting: the chicken was okay by itself other than being a bit bland, so I used some ketchup as a dip to give some flavor to the chicken.

Canned Beans

I ate this in 2008 when I tried to lose weight. This stuff was nasty by itself. I only ate it once and will never eat it again. I didn't even finished the plate.

Euphoria Canned Tomatoes



Decent, semi-sweet tomatoes that were pickled with garlic and dill. A bit soft, rather than my preference of firm-ish tomatoes, but still not bad.

Del Monte Lite Mixed Fruit



Pretty decent canned fruit dessert. Not too sweet and I would agree that it is kind of light.

Campbell's Chunky Hearty Cheeseburger Soup





Less than a month ago, around the time just before the Super Bowl I noticed this Campbell's ad on YouTube, and this flavor was mentioned there, so I wrote it down on the Post-It note [just to seal-in the fact that the cheeseburger soup actually exist and that I have not made it up] and then couple of days went to local supermarkets to check if they have it up on the shelves up for purchase. None of the 4 supermarkets in my area had it since they carry just the baseline flavors, and one of the supermarket employees could not believe me that there is actually a cheeseburger flavor and thought that I was just messing with her. Then I figured that I should just go and check out if they have this soup flavor over at Target, since they have expanded assortment there. It took me a while to find it [since it was on one of the lower shelves] and the price was right: $1.44 per can. The soup tastes creamy and a bit sauce, which I think is just right. There are also potato pieces and flake-sized unidentified pieces of vegetables. Despite my hate for bfor boiled potato pieces in the soups, I actually ate these without disgust since the cheesy soup was so good that it masked-out the potatoes. But the best part was the micro-sized burger bites that were just awesome while coated in the cheesy soup. I love this soup! But I can definitely see that it may not be everyone's "cup of tea". I will buy more cans of it next time when I will be over at Target.

Custom Mashed Potatoes with Luncheon Meat






Made this mashed potatoes with luncheon meat couple of days ago. Luncheon meat was okay, other than being a bit salty on the outside, but otherwise it was fine and tender. Mashed potatoes came out okay, but I did not took into account the extra sauces and did not compensated with extra potato flakes, so it come out a  bit mushy, but 15 minutes after it simmered down, the potatoes were alright and I ate it all. Here is what I used for it:

Water
Milk
Butter
Garlic Knots Sauce
Hot Sauce
BBQ Sauce
Salt
Pepper Powder
Cheese Powder
Basil Flakes
Potato Flakes

Campbell's Home-Style Italian Style Wedding Soup


This soup is one of the products in the Campbell's new Home Style soup lineup/collection. It tastes excellent: rich home-style taste that is totally enjoyable. They sell this soup for $2.99 per can near my place, but I got it at target for $1.44 per can and its on sale until January. I bought 6 more cans after I tried this soup and I have 2 of them left. Its nicely balanced and the meatballs are very similar to the ones like my grandma used to make, but she ground the onions into the chicken meat.
