This one, some people describe the scent similar as talcum powder we use when we were child. I don't mind of the scent. The positive is they may use some African Macadamia oil in the ingredients. Negative is scalp turns oily a bit faster than before if you keep using bottle after bottle, and especially if you have a problem with itchy scalp, it will worsen the situation. This is what I conclude with after only using three bottles of this shampoo. The usual price is almost $8, and hardly ever seen promotion on this one. Safeway usually sells for $4.99 or 5.99. I don't recommend entirly replace other shampoos solely by this. This shampoo is at the best if you only use it two times a month. -

Ben&Jerry;'s is always my favourite ice cream brand.
This peanut butter and cookie flavour is kind of weird when I first heard about it. The picture of this product looks much more tasty than the actual stuff. To be honest, I don't like peanut butter companioned with ice cream, too creamy and greasy. The cookie part is where the weirdest, because it's just wet version of cookie crumbles. I poured a bit of red wine on the ice cream, made the combination actually had a unique flavour.. :p
So far, I would purchase other flavours over this one. I like it contains almond, Non-diary concept is fine, but a bit watery with the final result.

I read reviews here before I buy this one. I thought it's not going to be any bad if a few people think it is a great choice. Turns out it was the worst cake I have ever bought in the past. This is why people should buy real bakery cake instead of the brand chain products. They never put any visible effort in product. They just assume consumer has average taste-bud, and never would find out they use cheap materials for making "cake". This one is not even supposed to be called as cake. They use chocolate cream on top that you could taste how cheaply it is made, and the basic layer is the worst. Both layer doesn't compliment each other, and they are not combined as much of an acceptable sweet tooth journey. I would never buy this one again, and don't even think about serving this one as your dessert. It has a higher possibility of ruining your party for sure. -
Liberte Mediterranee Yogurt — Caramel

I don't get why people think this is how creamy yogurt should be, and it doesn't even taste close to a real Greek yogurt. I can't taste the thickness of a greek yogurt. Obviously it has been diluted either with water or something else. Also it tastes very artificially with the so-called caramel. The whole thing just doesn't have the quality to be called as a "yogurt". I can actually taste the unnaturalness, and Liberte Mediterranee is the only yogurt I actually have seen in the market that contains amount of trans fat. Clearly it's not a low-fat diet choice.. -

This summer there's one new choice of yogurt beverage for me- Kefir. I don't like Liberté Méditerranée- too diluted, but their kefir is much better!!! There are three flavours- Mango, Strawberry and Plain. I would choose plain most of the time because it actually has a taste similar to the Chinese yogurt I always sip when I was a child. Strawberry is the sweetest one. Mango also is a happy choice. It has a right amount of sweetness mixed with a hint of mango's sour. -

Stacy's chips often are sold at a moderately higher price than any other average chip brands you can find in store. I bought one bag because Checkout 51 is having an offer on Stacy's. I thought why not give this a try? I wasn't expecting much until I opened up this bag of pita chip, holy moly! they are simply delicious!! Crunchy, thick and only a bit of sweet combined with salty. What a genius combination! You are not gonna forget how crispy this chip is. Don't forget It also has a very high calories of 240 per 13 chips, so better not finish one bag in a day... : ) I would definitely buy this again or try another flavour...
Today is raining, but this cinnamon chip actually made my day brighter.

It's just too expensive for an ice cream, but everything in that container is simply a deluxe chocolate tour. What you can taste is skim milk with real chocolate. I don't want to buy those cheap ice cream, because all you get isn't natural at all. I once bought a huge container of Breyers ice cream. It has gross unnatural taste now compares to 5 years before, and this indeed is a waste of money! Every one in a while Canadian Superstore sell them for around $4.00 or even less- I just can't remember the price now. I remember seeing them sold $3.5 at Target, but Target now has officially gone in Canada. Zweet also offer a $0.75 cash back once in a while, but I wouldn't recommend using the cash back on $5.00 price range, because it's still not a good deal. What I would do is comparing every major supermarket's price during the offer week, grab the cheapest supermarket deal then apply the -$0.75 on the cheapest price, so I could get an even more cheaper deal. If there's no match up on a good deal between Zweet and Supermarket, I won't buy at all. -

Well, I have to say this is the most outstanding store in Canada, and It is my favourite! There's on in Metrotown, let's just say if I only have one hour to stop by, I would definitely spend that time in Winners.
- They have this big selection of beauty products section where you can find latest brand name makeup, skincare and perfume. more important is the price. Recently they started to carry more up-scaled and trendy brands.
- Their handbag selection is a dream. If you want to search for something more quality, then go to the downtown branch. You could find something really charming and higher handcrafted. They often update their handbag inventory.
- The women clothing section somehow needs some more work. I don't know why, I just couldn't find anything worth to buy for a while in this summer. Still it feels like a treasure hunt once you search out something that match your taste or style.
Not too mention they often have huge discount on clothes. I would recommend people who traveling across Canada to shop here, because you can find anything that's worth every dollar you spend in this store.

Definitely not better than the chai latte of this brand. The combination of both strong filtered water-ish coffee and loads of sugar make it very powerful and too sweet. It is quite watery enough that you barely can taste the authentication of coffee bean. I guess it's because they use cocoa as if they are producing something called "coffee''. It's just too far away as being named with Moka. -

I truly love this tea. It has a spicy and rich flavour of cinnamon. I don't find the french vanilla taste is quite obvious since other natural components have already been to much like cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and ginger. Most of the time I like to drink it with only boiled water. It's just purely a simple joy. Twining's tends to be a bit expensive compares to other general tea brands in Canada. You can always get a good deal at shopper's drug mart. I'm going to try it by adding some milk to see what it tastes like... -
