On the streets of Philadelphia

Advantages: Excellent performances, story and sound track
Disadvantages: None

...making to have challenged so many people to confront their own prejudices and ignorance. Dealing with the highly provocative subject of homosexuality and AIDS, Philadelphia does an excellent job of disbanding many of the myths surrounding both of the subjects. Not only does Philadelphia tell a powerful story of injustice, it is also a beautifully shot film, which has many scenes which will tug at your heart strings. It also allowed Tom Hanks to demonstrate that he was more than capable of performing serious roles as he had previously been better known for his comedy roles. There were some critics who suggested that Hanks was not convincing as a homosexual, what did they expect a bloke wearing lipstick, lycra and high heals. Part of the beauty of the film was that it attempted to destroy society's stereotypes of how homosexuals looked and acted...

Review of Philadelphia (DVD)

Philadelphia Fan!!

Advantages: Taste great, ok for calories, great snack food
Disadvantages: Sometimes the 'dippers' can be too large to dip

...I only came about this product last week when shopping at Tesco's. I only noticed them because they were in special offer and since trying them, they have become one of my favourite snacks. Philadelphia Splendips are very similar to Dairylea dunkers but they also have a sweet variety as well as savoury. Philadelphia Splendips There are four varieties of Philadelphia Splendips. These are Thai Sweet Chilli, Chives, Cheesecake and Nachos. Philadelphia Splendips come in a container similar to Dairylea Dunkers except that they have three compartment rather than two. Half of the container if taken up with the 'dipper' section and the other half is split into two sections, containing cheese and then whatever flavour you have picked. The container has a foil lid which peels off and is easy to remove. The containers themselves are...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Splendips

kraft philadelphia xtra light

Advantages: Low Fat
Disadvantages: Negligible fiber content.

...philadeplphia extra light was founded by a American milkman by back in 1872, which is a long time ago, I am really suprised the Kraft company make a time line story about this. I am sure most people are familiar with the kraft Philadelphia Television advert from a few years ago which I will not bother talking about in too great detail as it showed a beautiful female sitting down on a Sun Bed ouside on a warm summer's day looking to enjoy herself by eating the original version of Philadelphia spread. So here I am now reviewing kraft's extra Light Spread. I am thinking to myself, what would the Television advert look like now. This part of the opinion is where it shall end. The Product itself was launched in 2001 with less than six per cent fat content inside. Today it contains four point seven grams of fat. Basic ingredients...

Transform A Snack

Advantages: A decent crisp...
Disadvantages: ...Kind of

...Another culinary delight for you here (and it is a delight!), that is the world-renowned Transform-A-Snack...well, renowned in parts of the UK I guess... One walking around a local Tesco Metro yesterday lunchtime I came across these bad boys right next to the Space Raiders...of course, the first dilemma was which one of these to choose. Both were 25p, 28 gram bags and undoubtedly awful compared to some of the other crisps on offer, but easily the cheapest! I've risked it all though and gone for the "TAS." They come in a 'spicy' flavour, which fear not, just tastes like tomato rather than some outlandish spiced products from the sub-continent...oh wait, we're talking about budget crisps here... Most people will remember these from their youth, the same with Space Raiders, but the packaging has improved slightly from what I remember...

Happy snack highchair

Advantages: Great all round chair
Disadvantages: None

...When my 4 month old little boy tipped him bouncer seat up for the thrid time, due to his size, I decided that would have to get on the internet and the Argos catalogue out and get him a highchair. Despite all the available chairs stating that they are all suitable from 6 months to 3 years I decidede to use my own descretion as a mother and buy him one. I opted for the Chicco happy snack highchair due to the fact that it was a great price and the seat also reclined to 2 further positions aswell as the upright position. The highchair has a very sturdy metal frame which measures 27 inches high from floor to the bottom of the seat. the width is 18 inches and when opened out the depth of the legs spans 30 inches. The seat measures approximately 17 inches high and 14 inches wide, it is also approximately 10 inces deep. In total...

My baguette is filled with Philadelphia cheese

Advantages: tastes fabulous, healthy
Disadvantages: none

...Kraft Philadelphia Light Garlic and Herbs is a medium fat soft cheese made in Germany. I like to taste cheese of different nations because cheese can taste very different. Price and Package ------------------------- This cheese comes in a white oval plastic tub which contains 300 g of soft cheese. The lid is silver coloured plastic. The tub can be opened and re-closed easily and keeps the cheese fresh. Naturally it has to be refrigerated. Its price is 1.82 pounds in Sainsbury?s which is about average I think. Now (24 November 2009) it is on offer buy 1 and add 1 free. Taste and texture ---------------------- It is a white thick cheese that can be spread easily. There are small pieces of green herbs in it. The garlic cannot be observed as it has very mild taste but the herbs give the cheese a very nice taste. There is a secret...

Want a low fat lunch? Philadelphia's Light with Bazil

Advantages: Great packaging, good flavour, impressive taste!
Disadvantages: None at all!!!!

...If you have read any of my previous reviews then you will have seen that I sometimes struggle with what to have for my lunch everyday. I tend to get bored quite quickly with food and whilst I have fads of items where I cannot get enough of them, not long after I am soon fed up. I have recently been on a bit of a soup fad but know that before long I will tire of it. Whilst going to heat my soup up in the works kitchen I saw a colleague toasting herself a bagel and then spreading something on it?. This something was Philadelphia Light with added bazil! So a new idea for my lunch and off I went to my local Supermarket, Tesco to pick myself a tub up. I have never had Kraft?s Philadelphia before but have often treated myself to some soft cheeses, especially at Christmas time. A couple of reasons drew me to the product, the fact that it...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Light with Basil

Splendid Snack

Advantages: Taste great, good value for money, convenient for packed lunch
Disadvantages: Only 4 varieties

...I have been a fan of Philadelphia Splendips for about the last 8 months and find that there are great for a snack in the evenings or for taking to work in your packed lunch! About Philadelphia Splendips There are four varieties of Philadelphia Splendips which are Thai Sweet Chilli, Chives, Cheesecake and Nachos. Philadelphia Splendips come in a container with three compartments. Half of the container is taken up with the item you dip section and the other half is split into two sections, one of which contains the cheese and the other holds the other flavouring (which obviously varies depending on which variety of Splendip you have chosen). The container has a foil lid which I sometimes find a bit stiff to remove so be careful as one time when I went to open them, I pulled too hard and half the contend came flying out onto my lap...
