McCann's offers a variety of oatmeal options, including instant flavors. It cooks up thicker than other brands but may be a bit liquidy with Apples & Cinnamon flavor. You need to buy in bulk, which is great for families.
McCann's makes oatmeal for every oatmeal connoisseur, whether one likes it from the raw pellet state that cooks for half an hour, to the sloth addled instant, which can be done in the microwave for under three minutes. It's all good, that's for sure, and the beauty of the instant variety is that it is available in different flavors as well as regular. This variety pack allows different tastes to be explored, as well as giving you a chance to experience the difference between McCann's and other well-known oatmeals. What I personally like about McCann's is that it cooks up thicker and with more body than the top brand here in America. The Apples & Cinnamon, though, tends to be a little liquidy so you may want to experiment with the amount of water you add. In my 1300watt microwave the oatmeal cooks up in about one minute and twenty-seven seconds, so you should also watch that to get a handle on how much time and water to use. The only bad thing -- if you can consider it a bad thing -- about this offering is that you have to buy in lot so you'll end up with six ten-count boxes. This is good if you have a whole family of oatmeal-eaters, but if you're a single person alone -- well, love oatmeal.

The writer found various items at a specific store in Vermont. They describe the extreme spiciness of Ass Kickin Peanuts and plan to play a prank on their colleague with them. They advise precautions for consuming the peanuts and express their intention to keep them to themselves while possibly giving their colleague a gift that may offend him.
This wasn't in stock the last time I looked. I had to go to the Vermont Country Store in Weston to find it along with a jaw harp, Cranberry Horseradish Sauce, Fartless Black Bean Salsa, Apple Cider Jelly, Newton's Cradle Art in Motion and the staple Vermont Maple Syrup.Back to the Ass Kickin Peanuts. They are hot. They will activate the perspiration glands behind your ears and under your arms. It requires a beverage as advertised, a glass of very cold milk, and a box of Kleenex since it will make your nose run. They look like ordinary peanuts which is already giving me ideas for work. I suspect that some people have been hitting my goodies in my absence, especially my colleague Greg. I'm going to take this to work at earliest opportunity and empty the contents of this can into an ordinary Planters Peanuts can, and then see whose crying or whose nose is running when I return.The can should be shaken to ensure the spices are evenly distributed. It is important to wash your hands after consumption and not touch the eyes.You'll go nuts over these Ass-Kickin' Peanuts.P.S. I'm not sharing the peanuts, not deliberately, and I'll probably give Greg the jaw harp for Christmas. He'll be so insulted.

Maltitol, a sugar substitute, can cause digestive issues such as bloating, cramping, and gas for some people. It can also lead to nausea, diarrhea, and headaches. The writer had a negative experience with maltitol after consuming sugar-free chocolates and sugar-free popcorn. They advise caution for those who may have a bad reaction to maltitol.
Buyer Beware Please! This sweetener is not for everybody. Maltitol is an alcohol sugar and can be undigestible in the body. You will know a short time after consuming it if you are one of the unsuspecting many who cannot digest it by the extreme intestinal bloating and cramping and massive amounts of gas a person can experience. Nausea, diarrhea & headaches can also be experienced. I learned my lesson the hard way years ago when I fell in love with the sugar-free chocolates suzanne sommers used to sell. I thought I'd found sugar-free chocolate nirvana at first taste but the bliss was short lived when the terrible side effects of maltitol kicked in. The discomfort was unlike anything I had ever felt before. I blew up like a balloon and had very painful abdominal cramping. As the symptoms passed, this too was very unpleasant. Though hard for me to believe a low calorie sweetener could be the culprit, all symptoms were gone when I stopped eating the chocolate. My hunch it had something to do with the maltitol were unfortunately confirmed for me about a year later when I purchased some delicious sugar-free popcorn at my local market. The taste was amazing and while I was looking at the label wondering what could possibly make this yummy, new sugarfree treat taste so good, my heart sank when I followed the little asterisk next to sugarfree sweetener* down to the very bottom of the label and read "maltitol" in tiny little letters! Thank goodness I'd eaten only a little. I still ended up with all the same side-effects but for a much shorter duration. Some people can use maltitol to their heart's content but others, like me, can have a bad reaction to it. In case you're like me, ... it's not you ...it's the maltitol!

I switched from drinking coffee to Royal King 100% Natural Organic Green Tea for its taste and health benefits. I recommend adding a little honey to enhance the flavor. There are some cons regarding packaging and occasional tea bag ripping, but overall it's a great everyday tea.
I have been drinking Royal King 100% Natural Organic Green Tea (100 tea bags x 2g each) as my every day tea for several years now. I buy 12 boxes at a time to save on shipping. For many years I used to drink coffee from morning till night. But finally I realized that drinking so much coffee was not healthy for me. I finally resolved to improve my health and stopped drinking coffee all together. I tried many alternative drinks to replace my coffee habit. I found that green tea was not only good tasting it also has health benefits. Green tea is one of the few drinks that actually makes you healthier (coffe and other drinks do not) - the only healthier drink is quality cold water. In my opinion, for the price, Royal King 100% Natural Organic Green Tea is one of the best tasting teas. This green tea has a beautiful golden color, the taste is bright and fresh. I recommend adding a tiny amount of Y.S. Organic Bee Farms RAW HONEY to the tea to add sweetness and health benefits too. I also give myself a treat once in a while by having a much more expense tea (Tribute Xi Hu Long Jing) but this fantastic tea is not practical for me to drink as my every day tea (although I would if I could afford it).Cons: On my latest shipment the package shown on the Amazon page is different than the one shipped. The one shipped displays "NATURALLY HIGH IN POLYPHENOL CATECHINS" (a key contributive element to the possible health effects of tea), whereas the Amazon package displays "CAFFENE FREE". So I am not sure if this green tea is Caffene free or not. The other con is that sometimes the tea bag rips open when I unwrap the string from around the tea bag. So if the string seems stuck to the tea bag I put the bag in the hot water to unstick it.

I tried a new cat food for my two cats. The younger one liked it right away, and even the older one who usually refuses diet changes enjoyed it. It's more expensive, but I prefer it to unhealthy alternatives. After 9 months, I'm upgrading my rating to 5 stars. The female cat is healthy and agile. I tried a different flavor, but went back to this one.
I had heard a little about this product from the local pet store, then tried a small bag for our 2 cats of about 3 and 6 years respectively. The female, younger one took to it right away, and the older male, who was unfortunately weaned on the junk cat food with all the corn meal and etc... in it, and would usually refuse a diet change, actually liked it too. The older male is overweight and we were trying to switch him to soft food on the doctor's request, but he totally refused it. He is a posh cat after all. He still consumes too many calories, the fatty, but at least I know he's eating good food. Of course, I know this product seems to cost more than most other feline food on the market, but I just can't see feeding our animals the lousy alternatives that are out there, marketed as being healthy. Why do commercials show cats eating a vegetarian diet which is mostly corn meal? Is that right? I'll stay with this for now, but stay tuned.I'm updating this review after 9 months of using this cat food for our two cats. I upgraded the stars from 4 to 5 as it really has been a good food for the two of them. Garfield still eats a little too much, but he's just a big cat who doesn't exercise much, let's face it. Our female cat will be 4 years old in a couple months and she's so healthy. She's tiny, but happy and agile. I tried the chicken version of Holistic Select, but Garfield seemd to miss this sardine version so we went back to this one. I've ordered the duck version and will update this once they try it.

The 8" Cinnamon Coffee Cake from FantasiCakes is made with fresh ingredients, has a generous size, and comes with delicious icing. It arrived quickly and stayed in good condition. The cake is moist, filling, and has a great cinnamon and vanilla flavor. Perfect for breakfast with coffee.
I couldn't wait to try the 8″ Cinnamon Coffee Cake because it is made with fresh eggs, creamy sour cream, Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla and is topped and filled with cinnamon streusel. This 8″ Cinnamon Coffee Cake is available online for only $18.95. Now, I have had my fair share of cinnamon coffee cakes, but, let me just tell you that the FantasiCakes Cinnamon Coffee Cake really "takes the cake" with size, price, quality and taste.The cake arrived very fast and was carefully packaged so that it arrived in almost perfect condition. It also comes with a large tub of white icing that you can drizzle over the top, before serving. I couldn't believe how large the size was and it actually fed my family of 5 for us to enjoy during breakfast, for three days. The cake itself is thick and almost has a solid but sponge cake type consistency that is really moist and very filling. The flavors are to die for with the sticky cinnamon outside and sweet cinnamon and vanilla swirled throughout the inside of the cake. The icing really tops it off beautifully and gives it that moist and sticky sweet flavor. Pair the cake with your morning coffee and you've got the perfect breakfast treat!

We tried Canidae Platinum for senior cats and saw positive results. The youngest cat is still overweight, but the other two are more active and playful. The food change improved their overall well-being. Starting early with this food can be more effective for weight issues, and the glucosamine benefits older cat
We have three cats, the youngest is about eleven years old, another is fifteen and our oldest is, well ancient. That is what the vet told us ten years ago. The youngest is a blob. When he lays down, he looks like a footstool. The other two are arthritic and skinny.Since we had such success with Canidae Platinum for senior dogs, I figured that we'd give it a try for our cats. I'd had them on low ash Purina One Urinary tract formula for their entire lives and thankfully we had no UT problems.Buster, the youngest, is still a blob after six months plus on Felidae for Senior and Overweight cats. However, the other two are now much more active and we can tell that they are really "feeling better" since we changed their food to Felidae. Even Prissy, the ancient one has started to play and tease the dogs by getting them to chase her, where before when she was on Purina One, all she wanted to do was to sleep.I think that if you can get your cat on this fairly early in their weight problems, it'll be more effective.However, the glucosamine will certainly help your older fur balls have a happier life.

Felidae changed their formula without updating the label, causing issues for our cats. Cats are sensitive to food changes and it can affect their eating habits. We almost lost two cats due to the stress of a new home, and then the formula change exacerbated the problem. We switched their food and they started eating again. I advise against purchasing this food and encourage others to report their experiences to consumer affairs and the FDA.
As with canidae, Felidae has also changed their formula. Cats do not like change when it comes to their food. And they just had to change it without putting it on their label. We noticed the color of the food had changed and so did the smell. (As you will notice I have also reviewd the Canidae, and this all happened the same time the dogs were having issues.)Prior to the change in food we had almost lost two of our cats because we had moved to a new home. If cats get "upset" because of a change in enviorment, or a loud noise they can stop eating. It depends on the cat. Two of them had stopped eating and had lost a lot of weight. We took them to the vet and it took months to get them back to normal. It has been a year since then and they are better. Then the formula for this food changed.We started to noitce they were not eating as much and it started to bug us. We asked the shop owner of the feed store and she had no knowledge of any change to the food. It wasn't until the we were in there with other customers yelling about their dogs food making their dogs sick. Right away we changed the cats food and they started chowing down and haven't suffered one bit like our dogs have.Cats are sensitve animals and changes to thier food could cause them to stop eating. Anyone thinking of purchasing this food should not do it! We have 5 rescued and fixed cats, none of which are picky eaters and the change in this formula could have been the death of them had we not found out about the change in their formula.I urge anyone that has had these problems to go to the consumer affairs website and also the FDA website and write a letter to them to let them know how this has affected your animal. As with canidae they do not care how the change has affected my animals, and tell me not to buy it. This is just horrible!

This seasoning is too spicy for us, but adding sour cream made it edible. We prefer milder fajita mixes like McCormick's. It's easy to make and versatile. I suggest adding more veggies and maybe chopped tomato to reduce the heat.
My husband and I are both kind of wimpy when it comes to hot things and this seasoning is just a bit too spicy for us. It definitely makes you sweat a bit when you're eating it. It was still edible to us by adding a good sized dollop of sour cream but I don't think I would buy it again due to the heat. We prefer the milder McCormick's brand of Fajita mix. I've also had fajitas in a couple of different restaurants and it wasn't as spicy as this mix is.If you like super spicy then this is not burning hot so you might want to keep that in mind. To me it was more than medium hot but not by too much.I gave it three stars because it was pretty easy to make and it's versatile in that you could vary the veggies you put in it. You take a plastic bag, a couple of tbs of vegetable oil, 1/4 cup water and mix the seasoning, water and oil together then add the chicken strips to the bag and let it marinate for 5 minutes. In the meantime, it says to stir fry your veggies (peppers and onion) but I found it easier to just cook the chicken and veggies together and I don't think it affected quality or taste. I also used extra virgin olive oil rather than vegetable oil.I have one more package of this to use and next time I'm going to add more veggies and maybe some chopped tomato to cut the heat a bit more.

###Human: Summarize the following Amazon reviews into 70 to 100 words while maintaining the user experience, and write it in first person perspective My husband and I are both kind of wimpy when it comes to hot things and this seasoning is just a bit too spicy for us. It definitely makes you sweat a bit when you're eating it. It was still edible to us by adding a good sized dollop of sour cream but I don't think I would buy it again due to the heat. We prefer the milder McCormick's brand of Fajita mix. I've also had fajitas in a couple of different restaurants and it wasn't as spicy as this mix is.If you like super spicy then this is not burning hot so you might want to keep that in mind. To me it was more than medium hot but not by too much.I gave it three stars because it was pretty easy to make and it's versatile in that you could vary the veggies you put in it. You take a plastic bag, a couple of tbs of vegetable oil, 1/4 cup water and mix the seasoning, water and oil together then add the chicken strips to the bag and let it marinate for 5 minutes. In the meantime, it says to stir fry your veggies (peppers and onion) but I found it easier to just cook the chicken and veggies together and I don't think it affected quality or taste. I also used extra virgin olive oil rather than vegetable oil.I have one more package of this to use and next time I'm going to add more veggies and maybe some chopped tomato to cut the heat a bit more. ###Assistant: This seasoning is too spicy for us, but adding sour cream made it edible. We prefer milder fajita mixes like McCormick's. It's easy to make and versatile. I suggest adding more veggies and maybe chopped tomato to reduce the heat.

Initially fed expensive food, puppies had consistent gas issues. Switched to cheaper PuppyChow and gas problems resolved.
The recommendation when we bought our puppies (lhasa/bichon mix and lhasa/poodle mix) was that we continue them on the food that they have had since being weaned. This is a somewhat expensive food so I can't say that we were terribly pleased but we loaded up on the stuff and headed home.Let me just say this, I have had small dogs before. Never have I seen such gas issues. Both of them consistently had foul gas. Consistently. Usually when they're sitting on our laps but, you know. They're dogs.When we got through the first bag of this stuff, we purchased more on amazon. It was a great price for it since we got a 40 lb bag for the price of (I think) a 15 lb bag at Petco. But, they continued to have gas. I mean, they loved the food, don't get me wrong and they loved it more when we'd mix in some water and it would be like soft food. Somehow that made their gas worse but I think I'll have to give that responsible to the speed with which they chowed down- can't blame the food itself for gluttony.Eventually, we switched their food. No more farting. I think it was due to the high fat content which undoubtedly is necessary for very small puppies. They just need that in their diet. I think that we were advised to keep them on it for much longer than was useful (they said up until 1 year). Yeah right, you try dealing with gas for that long. Around 6 mos of age we switched to PuppyChow. Much better. Granted, they don't like it as much, but we humans like it a whole lot better.

Guayaki is a healthier energy drink with less caffeine but still not recommended if you're sensitive to caffeine. It provides an energy boost without the side effects of irritability and nervousness. However, if you're not sensitive to caffeine, it's a good option as it's not loaded with sugar or chemicals. The energy boost lasts for 4 to 5 hours. Remember to have a protein drink in the morning and avoid heavy, fattening foods to stay energized during the day.
Yes, it's probably healthier than 5-Hour Energy or Starbucks shots but if you're looking to avoid a caffeine overload, this is still not for you. Most energy drinks cannot be made w/ out a high dosage of caffeine. I believe the caffeine content of 1 Guayaki shot is 150 mL - probably lower than other un-healthy energy shot drinks but I believe most other people avoid the top brands b/c they contain too much caffeine and/or sugar. If you do not react well to caffeine, Guayaki is not a good buy either. I definitely feel an energy boost w/ 1 full Guayaki shot but not w/ out all the other caffeine side effects - irritability, nervousness, mood-swings. Caffeine overdose is why I stopped drinking coffee. But it looks even organic energy drinks are still not safe.Now you're NOT sensitive to caffeine, then it's a great buy. It's not loaded w/ sugar. The taste is easy and pleasant. It's not loaded w/ a bunch of chemicals like 5-Hour shots or Starbucks drinks. And the energy boost lasts for about 4 to 5 hours. Takes about 5 to 7 minutes to kick in but all this probably depends on your body/weight.Side note - if you want to feel energized during the day, have a protein drink first thing in the morning and stay away for heavy, fattening foods during the day that will make you feel sluggish and sleepy!

Disappointed with recent purchase of Sugar in the Raw due to lighter color and smaller crystal size. Called their hotline and was informed about a problem with their recent sugar crop resulting in less molasses and smaller crystals. Many similar complaints received. They assured the issue will be resolved with their newer crop indicated by a specific date code. Current product quality not worth the price compared to cheaper alternatives. Will consider repurchasing once they have a better crop.
I have used and liked Sugar in the Raw for many years, after being introduced to it in a Starbucks. My most recent purchase, however, was disappointing. The sugar was lighter in color and had a crystal size maybe 1/4th of the regular size. Having large crystals was something I always really liked about Sugar in the Raw. It enhanced the quality of mixed drinks and of lattes. I called their hotline to complain and was told that they had had a problem with their recent sugar crop and that the result was less molasses in the sugar. They have had many complaints of a similar nature. This, they claimed, also reduced the crystal size. They said this problem should go away with their newer crop. The representative said that the new-crop sugar will have a 6-10 digit date code (without ANY spaces) that ends with a "1" and no letters. The trailing digits are a date code using the Julian calendar. (My recent bad-purchase had a space after the initial sequence of numbers and then ended with a "51A"). Bottom line: their current product is not much better than much cheaper products. When they get a better crop, I'll go back to purchasing Sugar in the Raw.

Received Keurig Elite for Christmas and excited to try different coffee pods. Sample pack included four Green Mountain Coffee pods. Initial disappointment with Dark Magic, Decaf, and Breakfast Blend. Almost gave up on Green Mountain until trying Nantucket Blend, which turned out to be pleasing and flavorful without being overwhelming. Added flavored creamer and it compared well to Caribou Blend. While not groundbreaking, it's a solid option among Keurig choices. Will consider buying more in the future. Open to trying other Green Mountain coffees as well. Overall, a good go-to choice.
When we received our Keurig Elite for Christmas, we were so excited to break open the sample pack of pods to try out different blends and flavors. Of the 12 pods we had in the box, four were Green Mountain Coffee brand. I'd never tried anything from this company before, but from what I had researched online, they have the largest range of Keurig pods and have even bought out competitors to produce coffee under their brand names as well.Unfortunately, I was immediately disappointed by the quality of the coffee. We tried their Dark Magic, Decaf and Breakfast Blend and all were underwhelming, to say the least. I was almost completely set on writing off Green Mountain altogther.We had one GM pod left and being of the mindset of waste-not-want-not, I figured I'd give it one last go around before forgetting about them completely. And I'm glad I did.The Nantucket Blend is a perfectly pleasing cup of coffee. It is nice and flavorful without being thick and pungent (unlike some of the other GM blends we tried). I added some flavored creamer to it and it almost measures up to our go-to Caribou Blend pods. Almost. All in all, this is a very standard cup of coffee which, while it isn't anything new or exciting, is very pleasing and definitely one of the better Keurig options we've been able to test out. When we run out of all the pods we've accumulated, I'll probably pick up a box of these as well.Now that I know Green Mountain isn't completely disappointing I'll definitely be open to trying a few more of their coffees (with our promotion for getting the bewer we ordered Green Mountain Coffee Golden French Toast, K-Cup Portion Pack for Keurig K-Cup Brewers, 24-Count to try as well) and see how it goes from there.If you're looking for a go-to choice, this is your cup!

The mushrooms were mostly large and re-hydrated well. About 25% were broken, but it wasn't a problem. There were small/minced pieces that are useful for gravies. The product is a mix from China and Italy. Dried mushrooms are convenient and add flavor to soups, stews, and pasta. Roland brand is recommended and worth buying again.
I was pretty pleased with these mushrooms. They were mostly large pieces, re-hydrated well and had good flavor. I'd estimate about 25% of the contents were broken into medium to small pieces, most likely due to the shaking about in transit. Not a problem since I sometimes break the large pieces into smaller ones for some recipes. There was a small amount (perhaps an ounce or so) of very small/minced-size/dust-like pieces. Still useful to add into gravies and the like. Nothing gets wasted!The label says it is a product of China and Italy. Nothing was specified as to the proportion from each country.I'm quite fond of dried mushrooms. While they may lack the texture you can get only when using fresh ones, the convenience of always having them on hand is a big plus. Additionally, I find the broth used to re-hydrate them adds a wonderful flavor to soups and stews. To save time and add flavor, I sometimes add the dried mushrooms directly into the soup or stew without re-hydrating them. Really helps meld all the flavors together. I also am fond of adding some to the cooking water when boiling pasta. The pasta picks up a wonderful earthy flavor when it cooks in the mushroom-infused water.This was the first time I used the Roland brand (got it on a price dip from the Amazon Warehouse), and would certainly buy them again. Highly recommend.

Sea Salt & Vinegar Kettle Brand chips are a tangy complement to vegetable trays. They're gourmet, healthier, and come in various flavors. Recommended with wine, particularly semi-sweet white wine like German-style Riesling.
I'm addicted to salty and tangy flavors, so when I opened my first bag of Sea Salt & Vinegar Kettle Brand chips I knew I had a perfect complement to my vegetable trays of cucumber, carrot, celery and cherry tomatoes. Skip the dip; balance the tangy chips by alternating bites of raw vegetable.As an Oregonian, I'm proud to share these delectable snacks with friends, especially those living outside our state and who haven't experienced gourmet chips. I tell them Kettle Brand does for potato chips what microbrews did for beer.Kettle Brand potato chips are unmistakable--a light gold color, rich flavor and amazing crunch. Kettle Brand chips are also a healthier snacking option than the major chip brands. Kettle Brand chips don't have trans fats, MSG or artificial flavors and colorings. The company also has a line of organic potato chips and all of their products are certified Kosher.I also recommend Kettle Chips Honey Dijon and Kettle Chips Spicy Thai.Annette Solomon, a reporter for the Salem Statesman Journal recently noted that a glass of wine goes nicely with these chips. Solomon wrote, "...you could be missing out on a wonderful pairing. These chips are spicy, so you would want to select a semi-sweet white wine. Also, a moderate amount of acid will subdue the strong flavors of ginger, lime, garlic and cilantro without over-powering them. Classically, a German-style Riesling fits these parameters perfectly."

These Honey Dijon chips bring a terrific balance of salty, tangy, sweet and crunchy.

Discovered delicious Kettle Chips with sea salt and vinegar at Trader Joe's. Love at first bite. Thick, crunchy, tongue-puckering tang and crunch. Nutritious, hand-cooked in small batches. Perfect with any meal. Can't stop eating them, hiding from kids. Love them so much.
I first discovered Kettle Chips with sea salt and vinegar while shopping at Trader Joe's with my daughter Mindy. I couldn't believe how tasty they were; the best chip I had ever eaten. It was love at first bite, and I've been munching them ever since.Other things in their favor: they're thicker than other chips, so don't crumble as I'm devouring them; they're delightfully crunchy; and the salt-and-vinegar combination is heavenly. I tried to create an original line to describe this palate-pleasing taste treat, but couldn't beat what the manufacturer said: tongue-puckering tang and crunch. Isn't that poetic?As for health values, since Kettle Chips are not peeled during preparation, I'm getting more nutrition, such as potassium and vitamin C. My mother would approve of that, and the fact that they're hand-cooked in small batches.I often enjoy Kettle Chips as an afternoon snack with my favorite soda or iced tea, but they're also delicious with a tuna sandwich or a hot dog for lunch. Well, actually Kettle Chips go perfect with everything ... except "sweets," of course.My only problem is that they're so delicious I can't stop eating them. That's the reason I chose these smaller packets; I figured 24 could last me almost a month, if I was a good girl, kept my appetite under control--and hid them from the kids! For the sake of fewer calories, I try hard and have succeeded so far. It isn't easy, but ...Have I told you how much I love them?Reviewed by: Betty Dravis, 2008Millennium Babe: The Prophecy

Kettle Chips offers a range of flavors, but some can be nauseating. However, their plain chips are fantastic. Thick cuts, fried to a dark golden brown, crunchy, and lightly salted with sea salt. Highly recommended. Some claim they are burnt, but it's actually the caramelization of natural sugars during cooking. The colors and flavors are deep and rich. The chips may appear oily, but Kettle Foods uses high-quality, trans fat-free oils like expeller-pressed sunflower and safflower oil. The oiliness is natural and a sign of quality. These chips have a natural potato flavor. Their unsalted chips are also great for those watching their salt intake. The best you can get.
With Kettle Chips, you really have to be careful. Some of their flavors are nauseating. With that said, they DO make fantastic plain chips. Thick cuts of potato, fried to a dark golden brown. They are crunchy and lightly salted with sea salt. I can't recommend these chips enough. You won't regret it.Some people say they are burnt but they aren't. From their website: "Take a quick look and you'll see an immediate difference: Kettle Brand® Potato Chips are a beautiful tawny gold. During cooking, the natural sugars of our select potatoes caramelize, creating chips from light gold to a deep amber. The results are flavors as deep and rich as the colors, and an artisanal display in every bag"Some have also said that these chips are oily, which is true. But they explain that on their website: "At Kettle Foods we exclusively use expeller pressed high monounsaturated sunflower and/or safflower oil to make Kettle Brand® products. Both of these oils are naturally free of trans fatty acids and are not hydrogenated in any way. We have taken the extra step of sending our products to independent third party labs to test for the presence of trans fats and results indicate we are "trans fat free" meaning none were detected. You will see zero trans fats listed on our packaging." That oiliness is natural and happens when quality oil is being used.You will not find chips with such a natural potato flavor. I'm also a fan of their unsalted potato chips. For those of us watching our salt intake, the unsalted chips is the best you can get. Period.

Thick cuts, fried to a dark golden brown, crunchy, and lightly salted with sea salt. Highly recommended.

These chips are the best I've ever eaten. Discovered them in 2007 at CostPlus World Market. Became hooked and bought many bags. Couldn't find them locally but found them on Amazon. Bought a pack of 12 and they're delicious. Perfect for spring and summer cookouts. Hidden gem in the snack world. Buy and fall in love!
These are among the best chips I have ever eaten! I first came upon them when I visited a CostPlus World Market store in Opelika, AL, in the Tiger Town Mall, in 2007. I wasn't a big fan of dijon-flavored anything, but I decided to give these chips a try. I was hooked. I probably ended up buying over a dozen bags within just a few months' time. I searched all over my part of Alabama (the northwestern part of the state) and could not find them. I later tried to find them at the World Market in Hoover, at the Patton Creek Shopping Center, and they did not carry this flavor. However, when I learned that they were available on Amazon.com, and also available for PRIME Shipping - I bought them as soon as I read "Kettle Chips Honey Dijon, 9-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12)!"You get a pretty big box, filled with 12 bags of these delicious morsels. They last quite a while, but I will re-order, very, very soon! I suggest you buy them, in this bulk form, and enjoy them - you won't be disappointed! They go great with hamburgers and hot dogs - so they're perfect for spring and this coming summer's outdoor activities and cook-outs!Take my word for it, these chips are a hidden gem lost in the world of snack foods! Buy some today, and fall in love like me!

Kettle Brand chips from Oregon are a must-try. They have a delicious flavor, crispy texture, and are healthier than other chip brands. Pair Spicy Thai chips with a semi-sweet white wine, and enjoy Honey Dijon chips with BBQ dishes. Sea Salt & Vinegar chips go well with raw vegetables. Overall, highly recommended! Available on Amazon.com.
As an Oregonian, I make a point of sharing these Oregon-made snacks with friends who visit the state. I tell them the Kettle Brand does for potato chips what microbrew does for beer.Kettle Brand potato chips are unmistakable--a light gold color, rich flavor and amazing crunch. Kettle Brand chips are also a healthier snacking option than the major chip brands. Kettle Brand chips don't have trans fats, MSG or artificial flavors and colorings. The company also has a line of organic potato chips and all of their products are certified Kosher.Annette Solomon, a reporter for the Salem Statesman Journal noted that a glass of wine goes nicely with Spicy Thai chips. Solomon wrote, "...you could be missing out on a wonderful pairing. These chips are spicy, so you would want to select a semi-sweet white wine. Also, a moderate amount of acid will subdue the strong flavors of ginger, lime, garlic and cilantro without over-powering them. Classically, a German-style Riesling fits these parameters perfectly."I also recommend Kettle Chips Honey Dijon and Kettle Chips Sea Salt & Vinegar.The Honey Dijon chips bring a terrific balance of salty, tangy, sweet and crunchy. Other brands I've tried use too much mustard flavor, which overpowers the Honey Dijon pairing. The Honey Dijon chips make a great side dish on a BBQ plate with baked beans, coleslaw or potato salad and grilled meat. Naturally, they also go down great with beer.The Sea Salt & Vinegar chips are a perfect complement to vegetable trays of cucumber, carrot, celery and cherry tomatoes. Skip the dip; balance the tangy chips by alternating bites of raw vegetable.In summary, I highly recommend Kettle Brand chips, a great buy on Amazon.com.

Initially disliked LorAnn oil, found out that adding it to cream and vanilla enhances flavor. Use sparingly as it is very strong.
So I got this and tasted it strait out of the bottle, it tasted like smoky flavored milk - YUCK! I was depressed I was stuck with 4 bottles of this. It sat on my shelf and I forgot about it. Last weekend I tasted a Zevia cream soda and was not pleased with the flavor, it tasted weird and smokey like the LorAnn oil I had gotten. I tried to doctor up the soda with a little SF Vanilla Torani syrup and a tablespoon of heavy cream - IT TASTED AMAZING!!! The odd smokiness was gone and it had a wonderful rich mouthfeel.So I wanted to see if this would help the LorAnn oil too. I put a cup of whipping cream in a bowl and added a teaspoon of vanilla and tasted it, it tasted fine. Then I added ONE DROP of the oil, it is very strong, and stirred it in - IT TASTED SO MUCH BETTER! I whipped it up and put it on fruit and it was such a treat.Now I will always whip a drop of it with vanilla into desserts and whip cream. It was such a happy accident to find out how to use it. When added to vanilla it really adds a new depth of flavor and tastes so different than just out of the bottle or on its own in cream.It is VERY potent so only use a drop and increase after tasting, if you add too much it will ruin the recipe so use a light touch.

Vernor's is an old-fashioned ginger soda from Michigan with a distinct taste. It has a strong vanilla presence, is smoother and sweeter than ginger ale. The recipe has changed over the years, now using high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar. Vernor's is aged in oak barrels for 3 years, resulting in its smoothness. It is known for its use as a home remedy for upset stomachs. It is a regional soda and may soon be sold in glass bottles again. There are books available on its history and marketing.
I like "Vernor's", and drink it all the time. It is old fashioned drink from Michigan, since 1866, and the labeling was known for its lovely green and gold colors and the gnome character. If you look at the can it is actually called ginger soda instead of ale and is different than typical ginger ale in taste. Vernors has a strong vanilla presence, is smoother and more moist, and sweeter than a ginger ale. It is closer to a cream soda than ginger ale, very good. A ginger ale is more dry, higher in carbonation, and has a spicier bite to it. Vernors has 39 grams sugar per can, versus 33 grams per can for Schweppes Ginger Ale. Neither has caffeine.The recipe has changed a bit over the years mostly in the choice of sweeteners. They use the same high fructose corn syrup that the cost-cutting mega soda companies use, rather than the cane sugar they used to use. The down side to that is that the corn syrup syrup drowns out some of the flavors. Many microbrews are using cane sugar again, although it costs more, to get a better taste. Vernor's is still aged in oak barrels for 3 years, no doubt accounting for the smoothness. All in all a great soda for anytime. The soda is also known, like other ginger drinks, for its use as a home remedy for an upset stomach.Vernor's is a regional soda, and there are many areas of the country you can't find it in. That is why it sells here. They may be selling it in glass bottles again soon, at least there is a page that says so the day I am writing this comment. Search at Amazon for ASIN: B001JK2SEG to see what I mean. Vernors has quite a history, and there are two books at Amazon about the soda. The first is Vernor's Ginger Ale (Images of America: Michigan) ISBN-10: 0738551856. The second book is "The Vernor's Story: From Gnomes to Now" ISBN-10: 0472066978 a book about the company's marketing green and gold packaging with the famous gnome, and Vernor's fans.

Madhava's agave nectar is a great substitute for maple syrup, barley malt, or brown rice syrup. It is used in baking and as a topping for waffles and pancakes. Use 1/3 to 1/2 less agave nectar than other sweeteners, reduce oven heat by 25 degrees F, and adjust oil or add coconut flour to maintain consistency. Agave nectar doesn't crystallize like other sugars, making it unsuitable for hard candy. The light version is recommended for a less caramel flavor.
If you want to find a good flavor substitute for maple syrup, barley malt, or brown rice syrup, this will do nicely. I use Madhava's agave nectar in my baked goods all the time, and am always pleased with the results. At the time I'm writing this, Amazon was out of stock as a vendor. However, when it was in stock, it was priced well for the 2-pack.Other than baking, I've used it to top waffles, pancakes, and in small doses (1/2 teaspoon) added it to oatmeal. A little goes a long way.Using agave nectar: Use 1/3 to 1/2 less agave nectar than you would another sweetener (depending on your taste and the recipe. Recipes with dried fruit need much less), cut the heat in the oven by 25 degrees F; if there is oil in the recipe, cut it by 1/3 (alternately, use a tablespoon or two of sifted coconut flour to absorb more of the liquid -- just don't use too much or your recipe will be dry). Additionally, when baking, make sure to mix it with the wet ingredients prior to adding it to the dry. Most bakers might already know this, but remember to read recipes first because sugar is typically added with dry ingredients (unless beaten with butter first).Agave nectar does not crystalize like other sugars do, so you won't be able to substitute it for corn syrup in making hard candy. However, I highly recommend it for baking. It makes everything moister.If you are looking for less caramel flavor, you'll need to use the light version of this product (equally good in all applications).

17-Day Diet success with Low-Glycemic eating; amber agave nectar for sweetening, mellow taste, higher sweetening power, not used in kombucha, primary uses: yogurt, baking, salad dressings; limited consumption; cheaper than local stores, "Best by" date 2015.
We have been using 17-Day Diet guided by Low-Glycemic eating for about 6-7 months, with fair success. This amber agave nectar has become our primary sweetener because of the low glycemic effect on blood sugar. The taste is mellow,and the sweetening power is higher than sugar [so you use less], but without the "twang" of honey. the one thing I have not tried it on (still using sugar) is making kombucha - I still use sugar, as I'm not sure it would be a good idea to introduce a raw element into kombucha. But actually, that may just be my own over-caution and nothing related to actual chemistry or circumstance.Our primary uses are sweetening yogurt, using it in the little baking I do, and use in salad dressings, fruit desserts, etc. Because we are limiting our sweets consumption,we don't use a lot of this, but it's nice to have when we need it. I plan to try using it in some homemade jams later this season. I buy it on subscription, and the cost is about 33% less than the local WalMart and more than 50% less than the health food store on this same brand. "Best by" date on the bottles I received in May is 2015.

Good quality canned meats, used in various dishes like dirty rice, taco salad, chicken with wild rice, and pork with stuffing. Turkey given to a neighbor. No large chunks of fat or gristle. Fair proportion of liquids to meat. Meat not seasoned, versatile for any flavoring. Mild "spam"-like texture and taste, but better. Avoid frying in the meat fat, gives a slightly rancid taste. Higher calories and price, stocking for emergencies. Will buy more.
This is pretty good canned meat. The sausage I used in dirty rice, the hamburger I used for taco salad, the chicken with wild rice, and the pork with stuffing. the turkey I gave to a neighbor because I don't eat it. The various meats are all pretty good quality and was enough for 3 large portions each can. There weren't large chunks of fat or gristle in any of the cans, which I've experienced plenty with some brands of canned meats. The proportion of liquids to meat was fair too, it's not one of those with a spoonful of meat and the rest is liquid either, though it does all need to be cooked and shrinks quite a bit due to high fat content in the meat. None of the meat was seasoned, at all. This is very helpful as the meat can be used with any flavoring. There is a mild "spam"-like texture and taste to the meats(but way better than spam any day), almost a brine or something, that's why I heavily seasoned it. Don't plan on frying anything in the fat from these meats, it gave everything a slightly rancid, soury taste...no idea why! Due to the higher calories and higher price, I will only stock this as emergency food. I will buy more for that reason.

This Annie's Inc. macaroni and cheese is made in the USA with excellent organic integrity and eco-friendly packaging. It uses organic dairy ingredients and supports family farms. The preparation time is around 10 minutes. It contains dairy and wheat and may have come into contact with egg and soy products during processing. While the mac and cheese is easy to make and has a great texture, the cheese packet lacks sufficient flavor and coating for the pasta. Adding additional organic cheese is recommended.

The pasta was produced without antibiotics, synthetic hormones, or persistent pesticides.This pasta is simple to make and it has a wonderful texture. There are 2.5 servings per box (2.5 oz).

To add that wonderful rich smooth cheese flavor that accompanies mac and cheese, you will have to add your own organic cheese.The cheese packet falls flat on flavor and it does not contain a sufficient amount to coat the pasta. I give this mac and cheese a 5/5 on packaging, 5/5 for maintain organic integrity, 5/5 on texture, and a 2/5 for flavor.

Bluegrass soy sauce is a good gift option with a unique flavor compared to regular soy sauces. It starts salty, becomes flat, and ends with complex flavors. Kikoman, on the other hand, is less salty with a round and full flavor. Personally, I prefer Kikoman for dipping sushi. Bluegrass is still a good soy sauce, and each brand has its own distinct flavor. It can be a unique Kentucky gift for Asian friends.
This is pretty good regular style soy sauce. But it is not super-wonderful-better than any other good quality soy sauce you can buy in an Asian market. The main value is as a unique gift. In the Japanese soy sauce world, there are 4 types: regular, mild (usukuchi), for raw fish (sashimi) and light colored. Bluegrass soy sauce is regular style. Compared to Kikoman (a good commercial brand that is widely available) Bluegrass starts saltier, is flat in the middle, then ends with a complex & interesting flavor. Kikoman is less salty initially and has a round, full flavor in the middle. Doesn't have the complex ending flavors. For me, the initial saltiness of Bluegrass is a minus and Kikoman's full middle flavor is a plus. I prefere Kikoman, especially for dipping sushi where the flavor is more direct. But I lived in Japan for many years and am used to the standard Japanese flavor. I haven't tried Bluegrass blended in other food as a background flavor, which is how soy sauce is usually used. Bluegrass is a perfectly good soy sauce. Each brand has a different flavor and everyone has their favorite. If you want a unique Kentucky gift for an Asian friend, this is different than the standard bottle of Bourbon or box of chocolate.

This coffee is good but not exceptional. It's a mellow blend, but only 15% Kona. Delivery is slow. The three-star rating is due to the coffee being only 15% Kona, which was not clearly stated in the product description. The taste and quantity of the coffee are satisfactory, and I would recommend it with the awareness that it's a blend with only 15% Kona.
This coffee is good but, for me, it's nothing special. I will buy it again because it's a nice, mellow blend, and my favorite daily coffee, Nabob, must now be shipped from Canada. However, on my first order to the Canadian company, it's taking a long time to be delivered (still haven't gotten it).The reason for only three stars is not about the quality of the coffee but the fact that the description of the product does not mention the fact that this "Kona coffee" is actually only 15% Kona. If you look very carefully at the photo of the disc, you can see that information, and there's a legal disclaimer saying that the product may not match exactly with the description. So it's my fault for not reading more carefully, but I was happy to see what I thought was 100% Kona and wasn't careful. I've bought the 15% Kona before in a local store and did know that there was such a product in the Tassimo discs, but I just read the product title and ordered.As I said, the coffee tastes good, the amount of coffee is the usual amount, neither the small cups of some European coffees or the extra large size, and I would recommend the coffee. Just be aware that this is blended coffee with only 15% Kona. And don't expect it to come in a flash, as it did when Amazon Prime delivered it.

The Milka Naps Mix Gift Box is a unique and enjoyable gift for those seeking a change from the usual American brands. It offers a selection of delicious Milka flavors, including hazelnuts and alpine milk. While distribution in the United States is limited, it can be found in international grocery stores and occasionally in eclectic grocers. Milka, known for its smooth and creamy texture, surpasses the taste of Hershey's and Nestle. Overall, I highly recommend the Milka Naps Mix Gift Box.
The Milka Naps Mix Gift Box is a fun, unique gift for those tired of Whitman's and the usual American brands. Nothing wrong with Whitman's, but sometimes a change of look and flavor is nice.As a sampler, it provides only a few of the Milka options. Four flavors are here: noisette, hazelnuts, alpine milk and strawberry. All are delicious, though I don't like strawberry/chocolate (in any candy) personally, and give those away to eager friends. The Naps box are perfect for coffee tables and as a standalone dish at work.Milka and its famous purple cow, is owned by Kraft, is an eastern European chocolate originally produced in Switzerland and is available in Germany, Austria, Hungary and other nearby countries.Distribution is still weak in the United States, but can be found increasingly in larger cities. Usually, then, it is found only in international grocery stores, though it pops up in eclectic grocers from time to time. It has been around 100 years. Whether or not Kraft will change the recipe has yet to be seen. For now, the texture and taste are better than Hershey's and Nestle. It is a smoother, creamier basic chocolate.I fully recommend the Milka Naps Mix Gift Box.Anthony Trendleditor, HungarianBookstore.com

I needed a gingerbread kit for my preschool class but couldn't find one, so I ordered from Amazon. The first kit arrived broken, and the second one as well. I think it's the kit's fault, not the shipping. The candies were a mess in the first kit, but intact in the second. Overall, I suggest avoiding this kit and trying something else.
I am a preschool teacher and do a G is for Gingerbread unit every January. I was on vacation during Christmas and when I got back not a gingerbread kit was to be found. Which is odd. I needed one for my preschool class and needed it in less then a week. I looked everywhere and could not find ont. So I had one overnighted from Amazon on NYE and it came yesterday. I pick this one because of the Rudolph theme. The gingerbread itself came broken. Like unable to use would need a glue gun to get it to work broken. It's non returnable. I called Amazon, they were nice enough to order me a second one since I spend a ton of money each year with them. This one also came broken. I order A LOT from Amazon and things do not come broken. I think only one time have I had returned something because it was broken in 100's of orders. But two of the same thing in a row?! I think it's the kit itself and nothing to do with how it was shipped. I will say most come UPS and overnight comes Fed Ed. But it's bubble wrapped very well. I think the gingerbread isn't good and cracks in shipping and breaks off. The rest of the kit is very cute. The first kit the candies had spilled out and where a mess in the box. But the second kit while the gingerbread was all broken up again the candies were all in their bags. Too bad. But I would try something else, stay away from this one.

This dog food is amazing. Dogs' coats improve, shed less, eat less, and have fewer bathroom trips. Chronic ear and eye problems clear up. Price for the food increased significantly in a month. Will explore local vet or Petco for cheaper options.
I bought this for my one year old Cocker. However all the dogs love it. All their coats look better, they all shed less, eat less, use the bathroom less, my Cocker used to have this one chronic ear since the time I have had her as a puppy that it just gave her problems. It seems to have cleared up, no more smell. Her eyes give her less problems. And my 7yr old Yorkie he eats less, he used to throw up all the time had the most sensitive tummy. Our black lab mix, hot spots and she would just lick her fur off. All these great changes in a matter of a month. I do mix it roughly 50/50 with Naturals dog food blend. They are doing great.Sept 2012I love this breed specific food, however I just went to place my next bi-monthly order and I am shocked at the price hike in just over a month! I paid$41.79 on Aug 3 for a 25lb bag and here it is Sept 20Th and the price has is now $53.94, a difference of $12.15 in price! This is a huge amount to go up considering that I am assuming this is a price gouge; due to the speculation over crops :( I will look to my local vet for this product. I can get a large bag now less at Petco as well with the discounts they offer. They will order a larger bag if you ask.

These chocolate-dipped cracker sticks taste like a mix of chocolate and graham cracker. They come in individually sealed packets with clever packaging. Each packet has 210 calories and is a good snack option. Contains milk, wheat, soybeans, and sheanut. Facility also processes eggs and peanuts. Great snack at a great price, but avoid ordering in hot climates as they may melt during shipping.
I'm not sure how you review something that's as subjective as taste, but suffice to say that if you like chocolate and graham cracker, you'll like this (it doesn't taste exactly like either of those, but that's the closest analogy for me). The sticks themselves are a cracker of some kind, dipped in chocolate, with one end left just normal cracker to you don't get your fingers covered in chocolate while eating.Here's some of the nitty gritty details - each of the boxes contain two individually sealed packets, that contain probably 20 or so of the sticks. The packets themselves are really cleverly designed, with a little slit cut in the folded part, you just grab both sides and pull, and it opens up the package without any hassle - gotta love Japanese product design! :) Another nice design touch is that when you open it properly the grabbing-side of the stick is right at the top.Each of the packets has 210 calories (90 from fat), and about 80mg of sodium - so in terms of snacks this is a pretty good option. It does contain milk, wheat, soybeans and sheanut - so if any of these are an issue for you, then you'll want to pass. It also says on the packaging that the facility they're manufactured in also processes eggs and peanuts - the product doesn't use either of them, but the disclosure is nice if you're particularly sensitive to either.Overall a great snack at a great price - the 10 pack really is 20 of the packets, so that's quite a few snacks. One note, if you live in a hot climate, don't order them in the summer because they will melt together (in shipping)! Duh! :)

Pocky is a fun snack with slim biscuity sticks dipped in chocolate or strawberry flavor. It's like a cross between waffle cones and pretzels. Not a health food but okay in moderation. Coconut chocolate flavor is recommended. Popular in manga and anime. Avoid ordering in hot weather to prevent melting. Look for local stores specializing in Japanese snacks.
Pocky is just plain fun to eat. I discovered these snacks at an anime convention (though I'd heard about them before and had seen manga characters eating them). They are very, very slim sticks of biscuity stuff (the flavor to me is a cross between waffle cones and pretzels) that have a charming tiny popping crispness. The chocolate flavor, a nice non-bitter, non-dark, generically pleasing choco-taste, seems to be the most popular (given how fast they sell out at cons), but I prefer the flavor of the strawberry which is like strawberry ice cream. Very nice.This is by no means a health food (it's in the same category as a cookie, it's got fat and sugar and non-healthful ingredients). But hey, it's junk food. We all know it's supposed to be OCCASIONAL and not habitual in the diet. Unless you're really prone to binge-eating or can't stop yourself a whole one of these smaller boxes is not a huge calorie splurge if you stick to a reasonable number. 10 of the chocolate pocky sticks will set you back 125 calories with 5 grams of fat, 3 of them saturated. I wouldn't recommend just scarfing down multiple boxes. In fact, just nibble these slowly and have fun with the cool texture effect.If you love the flavor of coconut-chocolate together (like Almond Joy) try the coconut chocolate ones. They're really so good, oh man. Hubby says the taste reminds him of the Girl Scout 'caramel delights" cookies which are, in turn, similar to the old Yes Yes cookies (from the seventies or so).Anyway, if you have read manga or seen anime with young folks eating those stick-looking treats, or seen footage of cute Japanese girls nibbling at skinny little stick treats, this is what they were eating. :) Fun treats.However, with this crazy hot summer, I'd recommend you look for a local retailer or wait until fall's cooler weather. You might get a sticky, clumped mess of Pocky sticks in this deep summer weather. (Look for local stores that specialize in Japanese anime or manga and they'll likely carry Japanese snacks like these. In South Florida, Tate's Comics has them in a variety of flavors..and FRESH and NOT MELTED).

Deceptive packaging with mostly air inside. Snack bars are smaller than expected with a mediocre taste. Cookies are tiny despite the misleading box picture. The company tries to cater to allergens but falls short in taste and quality. Granola clusters are hard and unpleasant. Not recommended to buy.
This product must qualify for some sort of deceptive packaging award. The box only contains 5 bars and the wrappers are smaller than normal, so at least 50% of the interior of the box is air. Then when you unwrap the bar you find they are only about 60% the length of a "normal" snack bar. The rest of it is empty air inside the wrapper. If they were to not include wrappers those 5 bars would occupy less than 25% of the space inside the box.As far as taste goes they are so-so. On the dry side with a hint of berry flavor. Celiacs, who are used to inferior products, won't be disappointed in the taste of this one.I've also had their cookies and they suffer from the same sort of deceptive packaging. The picture on the side of the box shows what most of us would consider a normal sized cookie. But when you open the box you find that it mostly contains a plastic tray holding cookies about the size of a quarter.I really want to like this company. They seem to be trying hard and coming out with new products and keeping allergens out of the production process. That is why I've continued to try their products. I bought their granola many times, always wanting to like it, but it is some of the worst food I've ever had. The "clusters" are hard as the partially popped kernels at the bottom of your bag of popcorn and more fitting for gerbils than people.All in all I would not recommend Enjoy Life foods.

###Human: Summarize the following Amazon reviews into 70 to 100 words while maintaining the user experience, and write it in first person perspective This product must qualify for some sort of deceptive packaging award. The box only contains 5 bars and the wrappers are smaller than normal, so at least 50% of the interior of the box is air. Then when you unwrap the bar you find they are only about 60% the length of a "normal" snack bar. The rest of it is empty air inside the wrapper. If they were to not include wrappers those 5 bars would occupy less than 25% of the space inside the box.As far as taste goes they are so-so. On the dry side with a hint of berry flavor. Celiacs, who are used to inferior products, won't be disappointed in the taste of this one.I've also had their cookies and they suffer from the same sort of deceptive packaging. The picture on the side of the box shows what most of us would consider a normal sized cookie. But when you open the box you find that it mostly contains a plastic tray holding cookies about the size of a quarter.I really want to like this company.

Snack bars are smaller than expected with a mediocre taste. Cookies are tiny despite the misleading box picture. The company tries to cater to allergens but falls short in taste and quality. Granola clusters are hard and unpleasant. Not recommended to buy.

Numi's Flower Jewel offers a unique tea experience with white Jasmine tea. The tea jewels open up in water, forming a flower shape. The flavor is mild, rich, and soothing, with balanced jasmine notes. Multiple infusions can be enjoyed. However, the price-to-tea ratio is high, and the jewels are fragile, prone to falling apart. Improved packaging is needed. Recommended for those seeking an aesthetically pleasing tea experience.
For those looking for a more exotic tea drinking experience and who like white Jasmine tea, Numi's Flower Jewel is worth a look. About the size of a gum-ball, these jewels slowly open in water to form a flower shape around the central amaranth flower. They are meant to be decorative so glass teapot is a must when preparing this tea.Decorative does not mean tasteless. As a white tea, the flavor is mild, but rich and soothing. The jasmine is wonderful but does not overpower the tea. I have had stronger jasmine teas, but this one is quite balanced and tasty. I used a small glass pot when preparing it and was able to get more than 7 yummy infusions out of the jewel before the flavor and scent began to fade. The white tea tips are plentiful and of a high quality and don't get bitter if seeped for long periods.I must deduct some points though for the high price to tea ratio and the fragility of the flower jewels. Pouring hot water directly on them can cause pieces to fall of and after the 3rd or 4th infusion more of the flower starts to fall apart, though to be fair the main flower shape remains fairly intact. Some even come out of the box starting to missing the central flower or bits of leaf. Better packaging might solve this.If you want a tea experience that looks as good as it tastes and smells, or are entertaining and want a conversation piece, then Numi Tea Flower Jewel should be on your short list.

Our 10-month-old twins love this baby food with organic apples, carrots, brown rice, and lentils. It provides a complete protein despite lentils not being a prime ingredient. They enjoy the sweet potato and fruit varieties too. The packaging is excellent, with reliable delivery. It's not available in local stores, so we appreciate the subscription service. Each serving has 70 calories and provides essential nutrients. Note that the daily intake percentage is based on an adult.
Both our twins love this one right from the start but it's not loaded with lentils (see ingredients below). We introduced it when they were 7 months old and now they're 10 months. I'm glad they are eating something green because we couldn't get them to eat the one with peas when we tried at 7 months, but we got them to eat the peas later at 9 months.Their favorite vegetable is sweet potato and we've also tried sweet potato with cinnamon. They love all the fruit varieties.I'm glad they love this one because lentils and brown rice form a complete protein, although a view of the ingredients shows that lentils is not one of the prime ingredients.This one also has carrots and I've heard all babies like carrots. I don't know if they would like it without the carrots. I haven't seen this one - lentils and brown rice - in our local stores, so I'm glad to get it here. Along with some others, we get this one with the subscription. Of course, with twins one is forced to buy more in bulk and we're so busy that it's great to get these delivered.The packaging is excellent. I've ordered an unbelievable number of cases of jars of different types and only had one jar arrive broken.Ingredients per label: Water, organic apples, organic carrots, organic brown rice, organic lentils, organic canola oil.This has 70 calories, 10% protein, 100% vitamin A, 4% vitamin C, 2% calcium and 4% iron.I'm informed that the daily intake percentage is based on an adult.

As a coffee lover, I was hesitant to try this instant coffee but was pleasantly surprised by the taste. While not equal to fresh brewed, it is acceptable. I initially bought a 38-pack for $7 at a local grocery store, which seemed high. Online prices are around $7 for a 19-count, so I recommend checking local stores for better deals. The math shows that online prices can be more expensive, even with bulk options.
I am a coffee fanatic but have always stayed away from these because I never liked instant coffee and my assumption was that this would be similar. I really enjoy the Starbucks VIA instant coffee - but I drink so much, it is rather expensive so I thought I would give this a try. Both my wife and I were pleasantly surprised with the taste. I don't think it equals fresh brewed but it is very acceptable. I bought my first 38 pack at my local grocery store for about $7. That seemed a little high but I figured I would check online to find the best price. As I started calculating all of the online prices, they are charging about $7 bucks for the 19 count. I would suggest that you check your local grocery stores as you might be able to find it cheaper. So you don't have to do the math...$7 / 38 = .184 per single. Online price $27 / 114 = .236 (shipping not calculated in). Looking at a supposed discount coffee supplier, you can get a case of 12 boxes for $69, no sales tax and free shipping...sounds like a great deal?? 12 x 19 = 228 singles so $69 / 228 = .302 per single - the most expensive at all.

Kellogg's Muesli is not like European-style muesli. It consists mostly of flake cereal, while true muesli has no flakes. European mueslis require soaking to avoid chewiness. Rolled grains in muesli are less processed than flakes. Kellogg's product contains HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). Try other mueslis from Amazon or local health-food stores for a superior product. Bob's Red Mill is a satisfying option. Quaker is surprising for not offering a muesli product considering their rolled grain production.
On a trip to Italy, muesli is what all the hotels had for breakfast as their cold cereal and I loved it. Imagine how excited I was when I saw that Kellog's sold this product. What did I learn?: despite the similar name, this cereal is quite unlike European-style muesli. While the overall mix of grains and fruits is similar, this cereal is mostly a flake cereal, while a true muesli has no cereal flakes at all."Real" muesli is made of rolled (not flaked) grains; this has pluses and minuses. On the plus side, milk does not turn European mueslis to mush in a couple of minutes like it does flake cereals. On the minus side, European mueslis have to be soaked in milk or yogurt for about ten minutes or so (i.e. while you are in the shower, or while the coffee is brewing) or the cereal will be a bit on the chewy side. For those that are concerned about eating processed foods, rolled grains have been processed less than flaked ones. (Rolled grains are lightly steamed and then rolled and lightly toasted; flaked grains are fully steam-cooked until they are mush, pressed into flakes, fully baked and then usually sprayed with sugar to extend "time-to-mushiness.") And certainly only the Kellog's product contains HFCS.You owe it to yourself to try one of the many other mueslis from Amazon (or better yet, single boxes from a local health-foods store if you have one) and see what you prefer. I eat the Bob's Red Mill product available on Amazon (and one of my local grocery chains) instead of this, and am much more satisfied. I haven't tried Familia (but I'm not crazy about the idea of the "fruit flakes"), and the Dorset products are too fruit and nut heavy for me. The other products are a hair more expensive than the Kellog's, but I'm willing to plunk down an extra dime or so per breakfast for a far superior product.I'm surprised Quaker doesn't sell a muesli product... Given that they have to be the largest producer of rolled grains in the U.S., you'd think it would be a natural fit for them.

High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is detrimental to health and has replaced other sweeteners in many foods. It can lead to weight gain, obesity, type-2 diabetes, hypertension, elevated cholesterol levels, liver damage, and exposure to mercury. Manufacturers like Kellogg's are gradually removing HFCS from their products. HFCS is made from genetically modified corn linked to systemic pesticides causing harm to bees. Avoiding HFCS is important for personal health and bee conservation. Watch documentaries like "Vanishing of the Bees," "Food Matters," and "Food Inc." for eye-opening insights.
It's no secret that high fructose corn syrup is detrimental to your health. Unfortunately, it's also no secret that it has replaced other forms of sugar in a disturbingly large number of manufactured foods. Even worse is that most high fructose corn syrup is made from genetically modified corn.Since the late 1980s, HFCS has replaced regular table sugar, honey, and similar sweeteners in practically everything. Prolonged consumption of HFCS is now the topic of much debate and we are learning that it can cause long-term damage to the body.High Fructose Corn Syrup Dangers1. Significant Risk of Weight Gain & Obesity2. Increased Risk of Developing Type-2 Diabetes3. Hypertension and Elevated "Bad" Cholesterol Levels4. Long-Term Liver Damage5. Mercury Exposure from HFCSKelloggs and other manufacturers know this and are slowly getting rid of this sweetner. Look at the cover of Post Rain Bran. They are advertising that it contains NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP.I applaud them for this. High Fructose Corn Syrup is made from genetically modified corn from Monsanto which uses systemic pesticides in their seeds which is causing Colony collapse disorder in bees. I am a bee keeper and have been avoiding all products with HFCS in them to save my family and the bees. Watch vanishing of the Bees,Food Matters and Food Inc. They are all sold on Amazon. Excellent movies which will change your health dramatically and the way you think and eat.

La Perruche brown sugar cubes are my favorite despite being expensive. The unique flavor is attributed to the terroir of African sugar from Swaziland and/or the Congo. The denser, irregularly shaped cubes offer a rich, molasses-y taste. The flavor is distinct and darker compared to other brown sugar cubes. Despite the cost, purchasing with free shipping via Amazon Prime is now a better deal. Highly recommended.
Yes, these cubes are expensive; in fact, I almost gave them four stars for the expense. Regardless, these sugar cubes are my favorite sugar product. I've tried every brown sugar and cane sugar product you can find on Amazon and in your grocery store, and none of them compare to the rich, sweet, unique flavor of the brown sugar cubes by La Perruche. Because I've tried so many brown sugar products, I believe the difference is the terroir, or the ground/land, where this sugar is grown. La Perruche sugar cubes are made from African grown sugar; more specifically, sugar grown in Swaziland and/or the Congo. Also, the cubes are denser than many sugar cubes. I don't know from a scientific perspective how this is accomplished, but the cubes are not regularly sized, but are large and irregularly shaped, and heavier/sturdier than "cut" cubes by other producers.The flavor is a rich, distinct and more molasses-y flavor than other brown sugar cubes, and is somewhat darker as well. I wish I could describe the flavor better, but it has been several months since I was able to find a somewhat affordable supply. BTW, now that this product is being sold with free shipping via Amazon Prime, I just purchased several boxes - it is a much better deal as of the date of this review than it was a few months ago. Recommended!

Nature's Recipe Farm Selects dog food looks like the photograph on the bag and contains small kibble with dried carrots and peas. Dogs readily eat it mixed with other foods. The ingredient list indicates good quality, except for animal digest. The price is relatively high compared to other brands like Rachel Ray and Buffalo Blue. Recommended for those with one pet and no budget constraints, but for households with multiple dogs, it may be too expensive to feed exclusively. Mixing with a less expensive food is suggested.
Nature's Recipe is now a division of that mega company Del Monte Foods. The neat thing about this food is that it really does look like the photograph on the bag. It consists of smallish kibble with pieces of dried carrots and peas mixed in. When the bag was first opened the girls ate small amounts of Farm Selects unmixed and readily took to it. Since then they've been eating it mixed with their Blue food. I thought Evie and Piper might fuss with the dried vegetables in there, but they don't specifically target the vegetables to leave behind.The quality of this food is obvious to one who reads the ingredient list. Only one ingredient, that animal digest, makes me cringe a little. The girls don't mind it a bit. For goodness alone I can heartily recommend this natural food, but the price on it is relatively high. Rachel Ray's dry dog food, for example, is about half the price of Farm Stands Selects, and Buffalo Blue is about the same price. For a household like ours with three dogs, the Farm Stands Selects is too pricey to feed the girls exclusively. We'd feel obliged to mix another good, but less expensive food with it. For those with one pet and for whom money is not an issue, I say you can't go wrong with Farm Selects.

Uncle Ray's Wavy potato chips are of poor quality, broken, and brown. The sour cream and onion flavored chips were disappointing, with deflated bags and bottom-of-the-barrel flakes. The seasoning is excessive, resembling the top coming off a salt shaker. Multiple bags had the same issue. Overall, very disappointed and will not purchase again.
Bought Uncle Ray's Wavy's 16 oz potato chips because purchased Uncle Ray's 16 oz barbque potato chips in the past and was very pleased. Oh how wrong we were. Do not purchase the Wavy's chips!!!!!!!!!! They are the quality of buying a no name bag of chips from a roadside service station store; broken, brown, very poor quality. Very, very disappointed. DO NOT.......DO NOT......DO NOT purchase Uncle Ray's 16 oz Wavy potato chipsOCTOBER 03, 2012Bought Uncle Ray's sour cream and onion flavored chips for the 5th shipment with extreme disappointment. The other (4) four shipments were very good which is why we continued to buy this flavor.The additive that when you like an item and start to buy a lot, it will change for the worse is proving to be true for us. This shipment of chips are awful. Bags are extremely deflated, so was expecting to be stale; however, was not so - cannot not explain the semi-flat bags. Chips seem to be the bottom of the barrel flakes. You know when you try to salt your food and the top comes off, the seasoning on these chips is like that. It appears that the top came off a full bottle or these are the bottom of the barrel crumbled chips where the seasoning has covered the chips too, too much. . We just opened (3)three bags just now because the first bags was awful, opened second bag - awful, opened 3rd bag - also was awful. LEFT WITH 6 MORE ,PROBABLY NOT EDIBLE, BAGS. THE CHIPS REALLY APPEAR TO BE THE NOT SO FRESH, BURNED/BOTTOM OF THE BARREL, GET RID OF LEFTOVERS. VERY, VERY, DISAPPOINTED. WILL NOT BUY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh how wrong we were. Do not purchase the Wavy's chips!!!!!!!!!! They are the quality of buying a no name bag of chips from a roadside service station store; broken, brown, very poor quality. Very, very disappointed. DO NOT.......DO NOT......DO NOT purchase Uncle Ray's 16 oz Wavy potato chipsOCTOBER 03, 2012Bought Uncle Ray's sour cream and onion flavored chips for the 5th shipment with extreme disappointment. The other (4) four shipments were very good which is why we continued to buy this flavor.The additive that when you like an item and start to buy a lot, it will change for the worse is proving to be true for us. This shipment of chips are awful. Bags are extremely deflated, so was expecting to be stale; however, was not so - cannot not explain the semi-flat bags. Chips seem to be the bottom of the barrel flakes. You know when you try to salt your food and the top comes off, the seasoning on these chips is like that. It appears that the top came off a full bottle or these are the bottom of the barrel crumbled chips where the seasoning has covered the chips too, too much. . We just opened (3)three bags just now because the first bags was awful, opened second bag - awful, opened 3rd bag - also was awful. LEFT WITH 6 MORE ,PROBABLY NOT EDIBLE, BAGS. THE CHIPS REALLY APPEAR TO BE THE NOT SO FRESH, BURNED/BOTTOM OF THE BARREL, GET RID OF LEFTOVERS. VERY, VERY, DISAPPOINTED. WILL NOT BUY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ###Assistant: Uncle Ray's Wavy potato chips are of poor quality, broken, and brown. The sour cream and onion flavored chips were disappointing, with deflated bags and bottom-of-the-barrel flakes. The seasoning is excessive, resembling the top coming off a salt shaker. Multiple bags had the same issue. Overall, very disappointed and will not purchase again.

White tea is a favorite beverage known for its high antioxidants and low caffeine content. The Choice brand offers a unique tea experience with pyramid-shaped, biodegradable bags containing actual leaves. The added Lychee and Osmanthus flavors may be overpowering for some, resembling sweet, green apples. It's an acquired taste that may or may not be preferred over time. The premium price and off-balance flavors make it unlikely for repeat purchases. Rated as 'Okay' with 3 stars.
Just in case, if anyone doesn't know what WHITE tea is, as opposed to green or black, let's quote Wikipedia: "white tea is fast-dried, while green tea is roasted in an oven or pan (while kept moving for even curing). Oolong and black teas are fermented before curing." What does it mean? For me, it translates into my favorite beverage to start the day with and to keep me going through the day. Objectively and scientifically speaking, white tea is said to have more anti-oxidants and less caffeine so, in my view, it's overall better than coffee or the black or green varieties.This particular product, while it comes in tea bags, it's not exactly your 'supermarket' variety. Unlike the cheap teas, black, green, herbal or white that are delivered crushed inside paper bags, the 'Choice' brand is delivered in pyramid shaped, biodegradable, nylon-like bags that ensure that what you get is actual leaves, not some indistinct crushed powder.This being a white tea, 'delicate' and 'subtle' and the required adjectives to use but they may not apply in this case. I found the added flowers to be a little too strong, bordering to overpowering for my taste. The Lychee and Osmanthus aromas can be an acquired taste - think of sweet, green apples for an equivalent more familiar aroma. If it's not 'love at the first sip', give it some time and you may not only tolerate it but prefer it to other flavors. Or not.INGREDIENTS:- organic, fair trade certified White Tea- natural Lychee flavor- organic Osmanthus flavor- contains caffeineThe somewhat off-balance added flavors and the premium price are not likely to turn me into a repeat customer. Time will tell but at this time 3 stars (meaning 'it's Okay') seem to be the fair rating.

9 Lives cat food is loved by all seven of my cats, ranging from 3 to 18 years old. It doesn't cause digestive or urinary issues and doesn't result in offensive litter pan odors. The 15 lb bag is conveniently available on Amazon with free shipping. I also mix it with Iams in the orange bag, which my cats enjoy. Foster cats have thrived on this brand as well. It may take time for your cats to adjust, but the quality and price make it a satisfying choice.
My cats (7 of them) love this food so I was glad to see Amazon is carrying it again. The local stores do not carry a 15 lb bag, only the 3.5lbs and 12 lbs. This food is sealed very well, and is fresh. I have tried expensive brands and really cheapo brands of cat food, and so far 9 lives agrees very well with my cats. This food does not "rifle" through them or cause overly offensive litter pan odors (like cheapo cat food) and their digestive and urinary tracts are all healthy. My cats ages range from 3 years to 18 years old, and believe me, this 9 Lives brand and flavor are something they all like. The price is a really good deal especially for prime as the shipping is free.I also buy the Iams in the orange bag for my cats for a variety and putting some of that in a bowl dry as well as wetted down with water in another bowl is something they really love. Again, no intestinal issues or litter pan issues as they have been eating this combination for several years now.If you do try this, or switch your cat(s) over, be patient as it may take a week or so for your cats digestive system to adjust. In the end, I think you will be very pleased with the quality and price.Also, we used to take in foster cats, and fed them this 9 Lives brand, and they all did very well.

I purchased coupons for Omaha Steaks and was excited to try their products. However, I was disappointed with the quality and quantity of the steaks and hamburgers. The meat was inferior to what I can find at a good butcher shop. The prices, even with the coupons, were high. To make matters worse, I received a coupon for a better deal after my purchase. I recommend spending your money at a good butcher or grocery store instead.
For christmas I ordered some coupons from my daughters school for $30.00 off Ohama steaks. I was excited to try them as I have been bombarded with their ads for the last 2 years and I was ready to test them out. I went on-line and looked at their packages and was so looking forward to receiving my package of fine foods and cook them. I made my choice and fell for some of the last min. add-ons, by choice. I went to pay and use the gift cards and well you can only use one at a time, having 2 for $15.00 I naturally thought I was getting $30.00 off the total. With that said I was still willing to go ahead with the order. $129.00 later I had ordered one of the package deals and the add-ons. I received my order ups in 5-7 days packaged in a styro cooler. packaged in the cooler were several cardboard boxes with vacuumed packaged tiny steaks. I am a person who loves to grill and do so about 4 nights a week, so I know a little about meat, and how to cook it. First this is not high end Dry-aged meat or wet aged this is inferior to quality meat that can be bought at a good butcher. The steaks are about $30.00 a pound after shipping and the high prices. The Hamburgers are tiny frozen pucks that are dry. I am so disappointed in the quantity and quality, I really have no words to describe how disappointed I am with this whole deal. To top everything off I received a e-mail coupon for $20.00 off my next order so the coupon that I purchased was $5.00 more than on-line deals. Wow Do yourself a favor and spend your money in a good butcher shop of grocery store!!!

I received stuffed baked potatoes in my Omaha Steaks order and found them delicious. Oven cooking yielded crispy cheese on top and a soft potato underneath. While making your own may be cheaper, these potatoes make a great addition to an Omaha Steaks order. They don't contain partially hydrogenated oils or high fructose corn syrup, making them a healthier option compared to store-bought or homemade versions. Each potato has 8 grams of saturated fat but also provides 3 grams of fiber. Overall, the stuffed baked potatoes are tasty and made with quality ingredients.
I received 4 of these in my first ever Omaha Steaks order that I received today. I wasn't sure what to expect, but so far, I've been pleased. I tore the plastic open, put the frozen potato on a baking sheet in the oven and put it on 350. 45 minutes later it was done and turned out being delicious. The cheese filling was crispy on-top and the potato itself underneath was nice and soft. No way would they come out as good if put in the microwave, so I'd say oven cooking these is definitely the way to go. Now, you can obviously make your own stuffed baked potatoes for far cheaper then what Omaha charges for these alone, but as long as you get a good deal on the Omaha website, these simply make a great addition to any Omaha steaks order. As delicious are they are though, I wouldn't order a box of JUST these off the site due to the added shipping costs. But like I said, as long as they're part of a nicely priced packaged deal, I'll definitely take them. Actually, I probably wouldn't order any packaged deal in the future from Omaha that didn't include these. A big plus, at least for me, is if you check the ingredients list on these, there's no partially hydrogenated oils, so there's no traces of trans fats, which is very rare with stuffed baked potatoes. Also no high fructose corn syrup, which is another rarity on a food product like this and is always a plus. If you make your own or buy them frozen from your grocery store for example, chances are, the butter used, sour cream, etc. will be full of chemicals, trans fats & high fructose corn syrup. These, not so much. So there is a definite degree of quality with Omahas stuffed baked potatoes. Each potato does have 8 grams of saturated fat, which is 42% the DRV, but that's obviously to be expected with anything that contains bacon, cheese and sour cream. I was also expecting there to be no fiber, but it turns out there's 3grams of fiber per baked potato half. Another plus. Overall, the stuffed baked potato was very tasty and actually relatively healthy, being made with quality ingredients.

Bird's custard powder elevates trifle-making to another level compared to grocery-store pudding packages. I purchased a large quantity and enjoyed sending surprise packs to friends and relatives. Making English trifle with Bird's custard powder, store-bought pound cake, thawed fruit, and sherry wine or sweetened juice is easy and delicious. Non-dairy whipped "creme" adds the final touch. I highly recommend this product and the reasonable price on Amazon. Give it a try and enjoy!
After you've made the customary, authentic English trifle with Bird's custard powder you might not want to go back to the usual grocery-store pudding packages. I DID purchase a large quantity of Bird's custard power, the pack of six, but the packs have a longish shelf life, and I enjoyed sending a surprise pack/container to a friend who is originally from England.At Christmas, I will also include a container of Bird's custard powder to special relatives and friends so they can learn how easy it is to make excellent trifle with this product. For my non-English family and friends, I will include laminated instructions based on my own successes with Bird's custard recipe for trifle.English trifle is so easy to make with the following: Bird's custard powder, store-bought pound cake, thawed frozen fruit, some sherry wine (or slightly sweetened juice from the thawed frozen fruit) poured over the small slices of cake. For the final touch, add non-dairy whipped "creme." Delicious and inexpensive! I highly recommend this product and am so pleased to be able to purchase it through Amazon. And the price for the six containers is so very reasonable as to almost be unreal. Go for it!
