I’ve reviewed a lot of heat and eat burgers this year, and although I’ve had them from 7-Eleven before, my past bites were generally a “brand name”, like the Big A, from the Chef Pierre company in Cleveland, a big supplier to mini-marts, schools, food service, the military. This is the first one I’ve had… Continue reading 7-Eleven “Fresh to Go” Cheeseburger Review

Home Cookin ‘ – Ball Park Brand Flame Grilled Beef Patties
I’ve tested a lot of ‘heat and eat’ burger patties at home, from the frozen varieties like Fred Meyer Frozen Mini Cheeseburgers, Private Selection Angus Beef Patties, and Trader Joes Kobe Style, White Castle, to the convenience store types like Big A Angus Charbroil, and the 7-Eleven Cheeseburger, With the exception of the mini mart burgers, the other patties… Continue reading Home Cookin ‘ – Ball Park Brand Flame Grilled Beef Patties

Microwave the soup, drop the shrimp in when it… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – CP Brand Shrimp Tom Yum Soup

No idea what I had to eat that nite, for sure it wasn’t ribs, cause that particular dish is never on… Continue reading Home Cookin’ Test – Tony Romas Pulled Pork BBQ

Oh, sure, lots of deli counters have a slab of meat that they will shave into bits for you – some pressed,… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – Stone Ridge Ranch Corned Beef
Home Cookin’ – Private Selections Marble Hearth Pizza
This is a short and (not so) sweet review. I was intrigued by the packaging and photo, but unimpressed with the product. The Private Selections brand (a house brand for Kroger affiliated stores) Marble Hearth Pizza, with pepperoni and roasted garlic didn’t have much going for it. While the crust was OK, and the presence… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – Private Selections Marble Hearth Pizza
