At a cookout, a friend showed up with this stuff. I was the first to take the plunge. I tried to pour just a drop onto a small plate of nachos, but more than I wanted came out - maybe a 1/2 teaspoon. I mixed it around and dug in; it was good, but packs some serious 5 alarm heat. It is sweetly smoky, but this lasts only for the initial few seconds before the blazing, unquenchable inferno from the pit of hell begins. My eyes watered. Sweat formed on my brow. My nose ran. Brutal... just brutal. Another friend poured this stuff on his burger like ketchup (dripping down the side), and ate it like it was nothing! I can only conclude that my friend has a cast iron stomach.

and they definitely do, being as i tried out this whole 24 pack. They taste alright and not too much fat or calories but i dont know why but they give me gas!! At first I was confused but then I realised when I ate them is when Id later stink up the room. Never again!

This was my first gel experience, and this product really works! It kicks in rather quickly and is easy even on my more sensitive stomach. Since I require supplementation every 6 miles or so, I like something that provides long-lasting energy and tastes decent, and this gel does both. The taste is orangy with an undertone of caramel, which may sound a bit strange, but it's actually pretty good. I'll buy this again.

There is no one anymore that is not low on Magnesium. This is a great product to take before you go to bed. I love that is has Calcium and Potassium right along with it for balance. Helps with night cramps and sleeplessness and heart cramps. It is a must when you take certain medication that will deplete you of Calcium and Potassium!

If you love jalapeno chips then Kettle is a must try.<br />Nice and cruncy with the kick of jalapeno.<br />Delicious.<br />Addicting.<br />Recommended.

The K-Kaps work great. I have told a number of friends who own Keurig coffee makers to purchase them. I love the idea of grinding my own coffee and reusing the cups to make my coffee.

When I saw Nature's Variety Instinct Raw Boost Bites Freeze-Dried Treats in the Chicken flavor, I thought it would be a nice treat for my four indoor cats. I opened it up the very night the package arrived and gave one to each cat. They were interested in these treats at first, licking at them, sniffing them, and one cat even nibbled a little of it. That was the extent of their interest, however. All four treats were still laying on the floor 24 hours later. I've never seen these cats turn their nose up at a treat and they have never left one alone that long.<br /><br />I set cat food on the porch for some of the neighborhood strays, and along with those kitties I see raccoons, skunks, and possums visit my porch every night. I took the four treats my cats turned down and put them on the porch. The next day I found that not even the scavengers liked these treats.<br /><br />The package says these treats are for cats or dogs, so I took the rest of the package to work, where my boss brings his dog every day. CD (the dog) wasn't so sure about the first one, but took it anyway and ate it after looking at it for a bit. After that first one, she ate another right away when she got it and seems to enjoy them without hesitation now.<br /><br />I would say that these are probably not a good buy for your cats, based on my kitties' reactions, but your dog might give it a shot.

I love this tea. It has an AMAZING creamy strawberry scent and I just can't get enough of it!<br />Unfortunately like with most teas, the scent is better than taste. I like mixing it with lemon juice and honey - it gets to be simply divine!<br />I like using my big mug and have to put 2 tea bags to get the right flavor. I have a feeling I'll go through it pretty quick. I drink it every day and would recommend this tea to everyone.

This is horrible soup!! I love chicken soup, any kind of chicken soup but this is tasteless and watery. The chick piece that was in my can was tough and stringy. The four dumplings in the can were soggy and gummy. Just awful soup. I have eleven more cans. I guess I'll add soup to the dogs food. I rate this even less the one star!!

My little Yorkie would not eat her dry food but just sprinkle some of these crushed chicken treats on the food and she goobles everything up...thank you so much for a great product. The Halo dry food is the best size for little dogs too.

Have been usuing these for a few years. This product was very fresh and packeged nicely.

Since I got this for my elderly, frail cat who turns up her nose at a lot of canned food, I guess I'll rely on her judgment for the review. She thinks it's pretty good. I bought a case without her even trying it (didn't have at my local pet store) by reading testimonials about it on different sites and because she'll usually eat something with chicken. I like that nutritionally, it looked like a very high quality, digestible cat food. It worked out, as she's eating it. Hopefully, it will even help her put on a little weight, but just the fact she likes it and isn't throwing it up is a big plus. I think getting it on Amazon is the way to go because cheaper AND got delivered quickly and free shipping.

These noodles don't really stay whole. Spelt is wonderful but maybe this is not the best for for it. Try not to over cook it.

Trying to be more adventerous in everything I do, I gave Veri Peri sauce a whirl. Friends had tried it and raved. Because it is an emulsion, it can be used as a marinade which adds a whole dimension to foods like chicken and pork. And , an added plus, spicy foods rev up digestion so I've actually lost a few pounds...coincidence? Anyway, you will not be disappointed...try it!!

EXCELLENT BREW! TRIED OTHERS, ALWAYS COME BACK TO THE BEST. SELECT BLEND ONLY FOR SERIOUS COFFEE DRINKERS. THANKS, AMAZON AND GREEN MOUNTAIN!

I finally, FINALLY found a dark chocolate that I love... Only to have it swept off the shelves and replaced with a disgusting 'new recipe' that reminded me of chocolate I bought on sale at a dollar store once. One of the other reviewers said 'waxy and tasteless' and that about sums it up. Plus, I find it insulting that they would trumpet NEW RECIPE!! on the box, and expect the consumer to assume that it was improved, as opposed to ruined.<br /><br />Lindt-- Charge more, I don't care, but don't sacrifice the quality of your products. Americans are SICK TO DEATH of soy products in EVERYTHING.

This juice is truly magical. It has given me such energy and vitality I didn't know I could have. I no longer get that late afternoon slump and I just keep going until bed time. I sleep great. I know it's good for me too with all the wholesome nutrients a whole food supplies. I don't bother with a multiple vitamin anymore. This is all I need for the most part. I just love it and recommend it highly to anyone wanting to do something healthy for themselves. So drink to good health. Thanks Goji.

Could not taste any residual oil spill taste at all. Not too fishy either. The price was amazing. Highly recommended.

My husband and I owned a retail store in 1990 amd we used to buy the coffee wholesale from Coffee Masters to sell in our store. We even visited their manufacturing plant and it was a class act and the owners were great people. Whole bean coffee was not "popular" back then as it is now. When we sold our store, we missed having all their great coffees at our fingertips. When I found out they sell coffee on Amazon, I was delighted. It is several dollars cheaper than the Millstone brand that you find in the retail stores and it is a far better product. We have our account set up on auto-ship and with that program you get a discounted price. The excellent thing about this program is you can cancel at any time, change the type and flavor of coffee you want and change the delivery times. It is a win-win situation because you get excellent coffee for an excellent price. Thank you Coffee Masters for making your product available on the internet. I will be a customer for life!<br /><br />Diana O'Rourke

My 9.5-month-old son loves every food we've given him. When he reached 9 months we added these yogurts to the menu, and he absolutely adores them. I love the fact that they don't have to be refrigerated, so are easy to toss in the diaper bag, use when we're out and about, etc. I wish they didn't have any sugar in addition to what naturally occurs in milk and fruit, but they're still better than pudding (that's why I didn't rate them 5 stars). I'm so happy to see them available on Subscribe & Save because our local grocery store charges $3.49/four-pack and we go through a four-pack every week. The only thing I wish they'd make is a variety pack so that I didn't have to get six four-packs of all the same flavor. Oh, and I hope Amazon will start carrying the pear flavor, too. (Can someone explain to me why the peach is 25 cents cheaper per four-pack than the banana?)

Been desperate to find a product I could use in place of cornstarch and flour for thickening sauces and gravies. I am seriously allergic to both.<br /><br />Purchased this and substituted it baking non gluten bread also. I pressed it to a fine powder before I measured it for my receipes.<br />It worked great.

My vet recommended these, and the Wonder Dog loves them! They're a bit pricey and smell terrible to me, but apparently smell great to a dog!

Peychaud's Bitters is the defining ingredient in the classic New Orlean's cocktail known as the Sazerac, allegedly the first "cocktail" invented in the U.S., dating to the pre-Civil War period.<br />As such, there's no substitute! It lends a mildly bitter taste and a sophisticated aroma to any beverage. In addition to mixing it for Sazeracs (check on line for various recipe versions), I add 7 - 10 drops to an iced glass of tonic or lemon-lime soda when I want a super-low-alcohol beverage with the taste of an alcohol cocktail. I find it soothes both the nerves and the digestive system.

I have been feeding this to my 2 chihuahua mix dogs for years now. One is very picky and this is the only food she would eat. I have tried switching to other kibble, but this one is the only one that doesn't make them sick. Highly recommend this food for anyone with small dogs.

My two traditional striped cats eat mostly dry Science Diet cat food with a few NuCat vitamins added. They also get Iams canned chicken, turkey, or beef once a day. Brownie prefers the dry food but will eat some canned food only when the can is freshly opened. Pi likes both. We tried the Petite Cuisine Variety Pack (Yellowfin, Snapper, Tuna & Sole, Tuna & Shrimp) and the Petite Cuisine Variety Pack (Chinese Chicken & Chicken Pot Pie) over the course of sixteen days. Each cat got about one-quarter can each day. I alternated cans of chicken and fish varieties.<br /><br />At first, the felines were enthusiastic. After a while they tired of the chicken. Pi would only lick up the gravy, while Brownie refused to even look at it. The fish was better received. They like the yellowfin and the tuna & shrimp. The cat vote is for two of the six varieties.<br /><br />There is, however, a question of mercury in ocean fish. A 1995 study in Japan found that cats that ate tuna had a higher concentration of mercury in their fur than cats that ate dry cat food. The study and its results are discussed in an article that you can find on the web by using the search term "all about tuna fish". I posted a question on the Petite Cuisine web site as to whether they had tested their products for mercury. I have not received an answer. My conclusion is that it may be ok to give the cats fish as an occasional treat but not as a steady diet.

These are everything the typical broom-handle-thick American breadsticks are not: thin, tasty and just so stylishly Italian. You can find these at Prego and other upscale Italian restaurants. But just as bad currency drives out good, those big fat sticks have muscled their way onto grocery shelves, and driven off these delicate treasures. That's how I came to order here. Plan ahead and you'll be ready the next time you need just the right thing to accompany that delicious <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FDN6WG">Alessi Thin Breadsticks, 3-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12)</a>pasta or salad.

OK, these things are good. In so many ways. Do you like a bit of fiery black pepper on your tongue? Along with a bit of salt and a hint of sweetness? Then this is your snack. If you like healthy snacks that are very filling, then this is your snack. And if you just kind of dig chick peas, this is your snack. Oh, and if you like snacks that last after opening, then this is your snack. (We just found a pack we had opened during a car trip a few weeks ago, eaten half the package (did I mention filling?) and then folded over and put in the glove box. Snacked on today -- and still pretty damn good.)

This energy drink does a good job at keeping you alert without giving you the jitters. I like that it uses honey instead of sugar or artificial sweeteners. While the taste is not something I would go for on its own, it is better than many energy drinks and nothing that would discourage me from continuing to drink it.

I ordered 4boxes for presents. one tea bag which is lemon tea was empty. Little bit disappointed.

I order this for my developmentally delayed son who has dryeye syndrome due to a thyroid condition. He drinks two or more cups per day and also uses the tea bags as a poultice on his eyes. It seems to be helping.

I purchased these food markers so my little one could draw on his fondant covered birthday cake. He had a blast "decorating" his cake, his little friends even "signed" their names on his cake. If the fondant seemed to be getting soft during the process of writing, I just popped the cake back in fridge every 15 minutes or so. I just had to remind the kids to not press very hard...the lighter touch the better.

(B000E123N2) et.alles. I really am hooked on this product line, despite reading other reviews that say thus-and-such doesn't taste like the restaurant versions. I don't get out much, so I will never have that experience to spoil my own enjoyment. I also read a complaint about the noodles. Well, they are vacuum sealed, and depending on the noodle, might retain their natural noodle aroma, but that is all. Anything else said is bunkum.<br />I would suggest that the packets of dehydrated spices, and blocks of goodies that comes with Tom Yum, for instance, be heated in a minimal amount of water first, and then covered with the noodles. This will allow the spices to rehydrate in the best way possible, and makes the product tastier.<br />These are not inexpensive; once you find the ones you like, order them through 'Subscribe and Save' for the extra savings. You can stagger their delivery so you get one a month.<br />And by all means, ENJOY !

My Maltese pup was given a chewable heartworm combo pill to use and the first time I offered it to him, he all but ran away. Lucky me, I was prepared because I had already purchased these pill pockets. I carefully slipped the heartworm pill into one and pinched it closed, then gave him the good boy talk. He took the pill pocket and thoroughly enjoyed eating it, including the insert. Problem solved.<br /><br />Whoever came up with this idea has my thanks. These would have saved me a lot of trouble in the past with other dogs. I just hope Puka doesn't catch on as he gets older. I'm thinking about giving him a pinch of one every now and then to reinforce it being a treat instead of medicine. They are very soft and sticky and apparently very tasty.

This is only the second time I have purchased pure maple syrup. The first I bought at the grocery store; it was a grade A. It lacked much maple flavor. So I bought this grade B syrup, thinking the stronger flavor would be better liked. We hate it. It has a very bitter after taste. I don't know what to do now becuase we don't like the grade B, but the grade A isn't strong enough in flavor.

This is good pantry pasta for lazy days.<br />All you need to do is boil the pasta then make or buy a sauce.

The gum came very quickly and my grandson loves it. The only problem is that this is the first time I purchased the refill for his gum machine and I did not pay attention to the 20 oz size. It only filled the machine about half up. Next time I will order a larger size.

This coffee is very smooth and has a great flavor, medium roast, without being bitter.<br /><br />The pods do not fit in a Keurig machine so you will need to cut each one and empty it into a Keurig insert for regular coffee grounds such as the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051SU0OW">ekobrew Cup, refillable filter for Keurig Brewers, Brown, 1-Count</a>. This seems to work fine for me, just be sure you don't over fill as the pod may contain a bit more grounds than needed for a Keurig.

Ordered this along with a belgian waffle maker. Very good combination. Excellent taste if you like strawberries.

A fantastic handy snack high in protein. Healthy and so delicious you will want to eat the whole bag!

This cutting board is well made, attractive, and a perfect size for 2 person dinners. Other boards I looked at had a very narrow well. I like the depth of the well around the edge-no juices running over and under the cutting board. I love it.

I am very happy with Amazon service including the speedy shipment. I am also very happy the product Amazon is carrying. This product is only available in selected specialty stores in the area. And tend to be expensive. Sometime they only carry small selection in store. You have to wait long time for a special order. Amazon is making the product available with a wide selection of variaty and affortable. Thanks.

My dachshund dog, Barney, ABSOLUTEY LOVES THIS TOY. He loves for us to put dog food kibble in it, and then he entertains himself for hours. He is very crafty in that he knows exactly how to get the cookies out of the jug. He rolls it until he can get it against a solid surface and then he flips it upside down and gets the cookies out. This toy is great, because I have two dogs, and they usually are always fighting to share toys, but the other dachshund, Cooper, doesn't like this toy, so Barney can have it all to himself. Strongly recommend this toy!

My 2 year old and my 8 month old both love these. I wish there were more calories in these but they are yummy and perfect for toddlers learning to feed themselves. Dissolves very quickly. The sweet potato and peach flavour are my favorites. :)

If you crave cereal or granola, but can't tolerate regular cereals, flour, or gluten, this cereal is amazing.<br /><br />It tastes great, is crunchy, and really satisfying. I pair it with unsweetened, vanilla hemp milk, raw almond butter, and stevia. Yum!
1
They taste great while you're eating them...but wheeeeew...the aftertaste is awful. Not only that, it's very hard to get rid of. I like the sea salt, and the white cheddar, but the sea salt and vinegar is the my favorite (very, very, salty).

Kind Bars come in many flavors but this is my favorite. It allows you to have something made from healthy and organic ingredients that still seems like having a candy bar-just healthy. Received my last shipment and my bars were stale/hard as a rock. Never had this happen before.

My wife and I first tried the Alessi Chicken Soup two years ago. It is delicious and simple to make. And it is easy on the budget since it makes enough for 4 adult people. We usually add a little chicken to the mix and maybe some extra peas and onions to taste. With or without additions, it is a tasty wholesome soup. We're always surprised at how big and plump the noodles become after cooking.

These lollipops are seriously the best lollipops I've ever tasted! I received one as a sample and have been addicted to them ever since. The only reason I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 is that I thought there would be a better variety of flavors. There are 5 containers of 30 with the same 4 flavors in them.

Please do your research on pet foods and what is actually good for your cats. Hills science diet is a horrible food filled with horrible ingredients. They charge an outrageous price because it's the #1 vet recommended food. This is a joke and the only reason why it's rated #1 buy vets is because Hills gives money to soon to be vets to help them go through school. Then they sell the cat food to them cheap so they can jack up the price and make a nice profit off of your marketing foolishness. Read the back of the labels of Hills brand and you will see that most of the top ingredients are grains or cheap meat by products which are the feathers, bones, unwanted organs from animals, basically all of the stuff we wouldn't eat. Please try another brand like orijen or evo. your cat will thank you.

What I like about wafers is the lightweight effect. Thought these would be similar to Manner wafers, with many exceedingly thin layers, however they are very different. The three wafers per piece are thick and crunchy rather than lightweight and paper-thin. In addition, the filling is scant and dry. The wafers lose their crispness very quickly when exposed to air, so must be eaten immediately upon opening. Given that these wafers have ingredients similar to those of the Manner competitor, they are overpriced and inferior in taste and texture. Other household members don't like them either, so I will have to give them away. Will not buy again.

I love my Soda Stream, and most of the mixes I've used have been quite good (pretty much any of their fruit flavors, their Dr. Pepper substitute, Root Beer and Energy Drink have all been quite tasty), however the one flavor that really stands out as a disappointment is the cola flavor. I can forgive the fact that it doesn't taste like Coke or Pepsi-- I have tried other "b-list" colas that tasted good in their own way-- however, this one is overall just plain bland. It's not sweet enough, and it lacks the "kick" that I expect from a cola. I tried making the most of it by adding additional ingredients-- once I used vanilla, and it made the soda even more bland. The other time i used some cheap whisky my room mate bought, and it was probably the nastiest mixed drink I've ever had (I'm not a heavy drinker though, keep in mind, and I blame the crappy alcohol more than the soda for that one).<br /><br />I have not explored other options for cola syrups yet, but this is one I don't expect I'll be buying again unless they change the formula. I'm pretty sure there's got to be a better option out there that does not involve spending $150 on a 5 gallon bag of Coca Cola syrup (which would have the high fructose corn syrup that I've been trying to avoid anyway).

We recently recieved 2 samples of the 5-Hour Energy and my Husband and my Son inlaw used them the next morning. They had both just gotten off from working night shift, my son in law a 8-10hr shift and my hubby a 12hr shift. They had to work on the car so both took the 5-Hour energy shots and were up all day. Not only did it give them the energy to stay awake and alert enough to fix the car, they also fixed the mower, built on a clubhouse for the kids and cut up a fallen treee in the yard. So in my oppinion the 5-Hour Energy is well worth the cost, and I would buy and use them again. "I received a free sample of 5-Hour ENERGY® from Smiley360."

While I do think these treats are healthy and nutritious, they are on the large size. I generally break them in to 4 pieces (the biscuit itself is scored), and then break them again for the treat.

I was just in a local grocery store that is geared towards healther foods where they were giving out samples of these. After just 1 I was hooked. I picked up the Sesame garlic, and as another reviewer warned, you may find yourself eating the entire bag!!

We've been purchasing this elsewhere for a few years, but this was an irresistible deal. We just love this very rich "expresso" flavor. Great for coffee lovers! Individual wrap is a plus, too.
1
Purchased 1 case and it only came with 1 dented can. I ordered 3 more cases and half of them were dented. They were very poorly packaged. They were shrink wrapped in packs of 12 and packed in a box with some brown paper around it. The boxes were much bigger that the shrink wrapped cans and they obviously shifted and moved around during transport. have not purchased again and wont.

Nice tea, the aroma was great, nice to have a hot cup of tea and a good book when the weather turns cold.

As a mom with Celiac disease with one son that has a tree nut allergy and another that has a soy allergy, I really wanted to like these cookies. We are used to cooking everything from scratch to ensure the safety of our food. Wouldn't it be great to have a cookie that my tree nut allergic son and I could grab on the go? I paid a visit to my local Starbucks to pick up a 1.25 oz. pack of the sugar cookies and excitedly opened the package. The smell alone was enough to immediately turn me off. The bag had a synthetic odd smell inside. I took a bite of the cookie and noted its crunchiness-a good thing about the cookie- but then was overwhelmed by an extremely unpleasant aftertaste. It almost tasted like burnt popcorn with an artifical butter flavor. A very odd and unpalatable taste indeed. I was so disappointed. I really liked the story of Dr. Lucy and the idea of the cookie, but most definitely did NOT like the cookie. Although I would classify myself as a bit of a food snob with high standards, I put that aside when reviewing this cookie. I do not think even the less discerning customer would enjoy this cookie.

Stinky fish sauce...mildly disgusting and of questionable origin just like it's supposed to be. Use in miso soup instead of dashi and it's pretty close on the taste.

This review is written by a non soda-drinker; it's not that I never drink pop, it's just that I know it's not that good for my teeth or my body, so, up until receiving a bunch of Izze through Amazon Vine, I probably have drank at most 1 pop a month (probably less) for about the past 5 years. Since I'm not an everyday soda drinker, I'm not particularly concerned when I do drink one that it's low in calories, "diet," or anything else--it's just gotta satisfy my very occasional desire for a soda. With this in mind, I'll keep my reviews (yeah, I did request 4 different ones--should last me about 10 years at this rate!) of Izze short and simple.<br /><br />Of the two I've tried, I like this blackberry one less. I do like it, but the flavor is less reminiscent of actual blackberries and more reminiscent of that generic blackberry flavor that comes in soda and other products. I actually like the very small (8.4 oz) cans a lot, since it doesn't take much for me to get a soda fix, and I probably don't need twice as much refined sugar that comes in a larger can. It's soda, and it tastes good--if you buy your soda from Amazon.com(!?!), I recommend giving this a try.

We just moved, and can no longer buy the trader joe's cat food our two cats love. I ordered this because of the great reviews and healthy ingredients, hoping it would help one cat's health. (He recently had an overnight stay in a vet's office because of tummy issues.)<br /><br />Well, the first time I put it in their dishes, both cats just sniffed it and walked away. Later, one cat would take one in his mouth,then spit it out on the floor. These are cats who eat everything (including things they shouldn't) and get VERY excited for breakfast. Eventually, they stopped even walking toward their dishes when I poured more food in. One cat was barely eating anything. The other one (with tummy issues) suddenly became more interested in eating leaves tracked in the house. Finally, I broke down and bought them <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PJQWLQ">Purina One Indoor Advantage Cat Food, Hairball and Healthy Weight Formula, 7-Pound Bag</a> at the store and they LOVE it. Plus the first ingredient is chicken (not chicken meal or by-product), not green peas. Right now they're eating half natural balance and half purina one, until they use up the bag.<br /><br />I'm sure this is great healthy food, if your cats will eat it. I did notice that they have very healthy looking stools in the ole litter box when eating it (Gross, but important, I know. The things we do for our cats!)<br /><br />Hope this helps another person who really loves her cats.

This product is so perfect for flavored iced tea. It is fantastic. If you like flavored tea you'll love this added to your home brewed

I have sampled various types of Starbucks flavored coffee over the years, and I have found that Starbucks coffee, no matter what the flavor, is usually very consistent. Upon opening the bag and brewing my first cup, I knew that Starbucks had a winner here.<br />I like my coffee strong; perhaps this comes from drinking it daily. In any event I found that the vanilla flavored Natural Fusions coffee produced a strong (but not bitter) cup of coffee. The vanilla is a nice balance to the bold Starbucks coffee and makes this a good coffee to drink both iced and hot. One thing I did notice, which I did not like, was a sweet aftertaste. The vanilla flavoring is not overwhelming, so I was surprised with the aftertaste. Of course taste is totally subjective, and others who drink this coffee may not notice, or be bothered, by the aftertaste.<br />Bottom line, I would certainly recommend this, especially if you like vanilla ground coffee.

I received this product in a gift package from a friend. I see that it's used in pasta but I decided to use it for breakfast instead. Fried about 2tbsp of it up with onion and tomato, and then cracked eggs overtop and covered for about 5mins. Came out quite delicious, but be careful it's very spicy! I like heat so that's not a problem but for someone more sensitive use about 1/4 just for flavor (you can always add more at the end).<br /><br />Anyway, I would recommend it.

Really love O.N.E coconut water. The mango flavor is sweet, good for my sweet tooth, but other people may prefer the unflavored coconut water for refreshment without sweetness.

Another great example of this fine chocolate makers produce. Good service and fast delivery too

I love these crackers. I bring them to work in a baggie and when I am craving something crunchy like chips they are perfect and basically healthy. They are a little expensive but well worth the price. They have always tasted fresh and I keep an eye on the expiration date. I don't think they contain preservatives so I eat them before they expire. I will order them as long as they are available.
1
This salt is so amazing. It has a great flavor and the price is much less than I could find locally.
1
Really like all the flavors and seems like a great deal. Love it with my instant hot water heater.

I am not a regular drinker of Crystal Light products, but I enjoyed this one. It mixes easily (even with cold water), which means it would whip up fast even with company over. Not sure how much similarity to a mojito there is, as it smells like lemonade and tastes more like limeade with a hint of mint.<br /><br />Though I haven't tried it with alcohol, I think it would pair nicely with Absolut Citron or something else of that nature (if you're not watching your calories too closely).<br /><br />If I'm figuring the price right, it's $22.40 for 20 pitchers (it comes in a pack of 4, each container has 5 mixers) of this stuff, which isn't a bad price. It would be nice to keep on hand during the late spring and through the summer as a nice, cool drink. (But perhaps jazz it up with some fresh mint.)
1
A friend brought this back for me from Mexico and now, I can't go back to anything else. I even bought a very large bottle of 100% pure vanilla extract after my bottle of Molina was gone and could not bear it, I dumped it down the sink. I don't even want to try anything else.

I have tried many, many pre-workout powders over the past few years so I thought I would start writing reviews to help consumers by giving my personal experience with all the supplements I have tried.<br />PROS:<br />-Mild stimulant for those looking for just a little extra kick.<br />-Label specifies amount of caffeine (270 mg/serving) there are very few supplements that specify actual amount of caffeine.<br />-Affordable for tight budgets.<br />-Taste is not the best but tolerable compared to some.<br />-No creatine if you don't want/like creatine in your pre-workout.<br />-Not as many ingredients as some others, so to me, less ingredients= less fillers and additives. (In most cases)<br />CONS:<br />-No Nitric Oxide ingredients from what I read. (L-Arginine, etc.) I had to stack with my N.O. supplement (Nitrix) to get a pump.<br />-No creatine if you want creatine in your pre-workout.<br />-Too much sodium, which may make you feel slightly bloated sometimes.<br /><br />I recommend this product to those on a tight budget and are looking for a little bit of an energy kick before lighter workouts. For those who need a real pump and a smack in the face for their workouts, I suggest a stronger pre-workout.

Like others I ordered this on a lightning deal and it's great value.<br />I gave four stars for flavor and freshness, it IS some of the best jerky I've tasted.<br />I was a little disappointed however, the first bag and first few pieces were moist, soft and really good, then the next couple of pieces were like rawhide, with some obvious jerked gristle, which took some serious chewing, and detracted from the quality of the rest in the bag.<br />I thought this was a one off, but the second and third bag have been the same, mostly soft and satisfying, but about 25% smokey boot leather.<br />I don't know whether it's quality control, but it seems like "pot luck" with what's in the bag.<br />All that said, I haven't had the jaw ache I get from the popular brands so it's still good..........just not perfect.

I love that green mountain has made blueberry K cups; I have always loved brewing the coffee in my pot and I am very satisfied that I can make it in a single serving use. the smell is great. I do wish the taste was a bit stronger, but it's perfect with a teaspoon of sugar. The price was excellent too! I am very glad it has dropped and made it more affordable. It's cheaper here than in the store. Will definatly order again

Mio works great if you want to sweeten water, especially as a substitute for soda. For people who choose to eat low carb, such as the Atkins method, this provides a way to enjoy a sweet tasting drink without the carb or sugar penalty. I wanted to avoid diet soda and anything sweetened by Aspartame too (as suggested in the Atkins book). MIO is just the ticket (it's sweetened by Splenda). This stuff is small, easy to use and tastes good to. It helps me to drink plenty of water and provides easy travel options. I also use it to flavor water when camping, hiking, at work and on weekend trips. The bottle is so small and light and sweetens 24 cups worth of water.<br /><br />When I first started using this, I would over flavor things. After just a few times it's easy to determine about how much to squeeze into the size of container you are using. The fluid is very concentrated so be careful not to splash or spray it on your clothes. 1 bottle lasts me several days and I drink it all day long. It dissolves instantly, just a little stir and your drink is ready. If you really crave the Soda fizz, you can add it to plain soda water too.<br /><br />Mango Peach is my favorite flavor. I rank the flavors about like this:<br />1. Mango Peach<br />2. Fruit Punch<br />3. Strawberry Watermelon<br />4. Orange Tangerine<br />5. Berry Pomegranate<br /><br />The price varies wildly, check your local stores too. Give it a shot and you'll be happy you did.<br /><br />5 stars for a great product, providing a carb free option.

I'm always looking for different chew toys to keep my Bull-Terrier and Bichon/Shi-Tzu mix occupied. I've bought a lot of different ones, and though others are not left completely unplayed with (chewed) both dogs go back to the Busy Buddy bouncy bone. Typically, it takes about 2 month for them to chew the bone ends down to a near nub. I pull off the ball and save it for them to play with and throw away the core. At this point we've gone through approximately 20 of these in three years with lots of other nylon bone type products thrown in. In the end, at least one of these ALWAYS has to be in the toy basket. Its now a trustworthy standard. I know that I should probably keep 2 in there, but its fun to watch them steal it from each other. :-) Great product!

Many reds show their depth closer to room temperature. For those vinophiles who appreciate a red that holds up to a decent chill, Gnarly Head's 2010 Merlot is an excellent value.<br /><br />Gnarly Head is a wine brand I usually ignore, but for a pizza dinner I wanted a cheap red, and this was under $8. With no time to chill, the first glass was underwhelming. A bit too much acidity came through on the finish, and the wine had diesel notes--a common characteristic in some ambitious reds, but not one I like in a merlot.<br /><br />In a startling turnaround, the next day's drinking with a decent chill proved this to be an outstanding red for the money. Lush, with loads of varied dark fruit, and a velvet finish with excellent balance, it shone when served cooler, something many reds do poorly. Highly recommended at 55 degrees F, and a good choice for white wine drinkers who normally shun reds.

These cookies taste great, are soft and chewy and are easy to pack and carry in individual packages. However I do question how healthy they are. They do seem to taste of preservatives because they remain the same even a month later. Not freshly made, but great for a quick easy snack on occasion.

Our French Bulldog will eat just about any sort of treat, so I can't comment for those who have picky eaters. We bought these with an eye towards reducing gas and they have worked great. We can give him a handful of these per day without a increase in farts. Great price too for how many are included.

My cat loves these bubbles. All I have to say is "Do you want bubbles?" and she comes running out from wherever she may be hiding. She meows and pounces on the bubbles. I am giving them a rating of 4 though because they smell horrible. If they drip on anything white it will turn green, but can easily be cleaned with some water and a sponge!!!!

My puppy loves to chew, so I got these. She likes them until the meat entwined in them is gone, then she goes to something else. Plus they can be VERY dangerous. I saw her chewing on something one day and went to look. She had found one of these she'd left where I didn't see it and had chewed it to where the end was gooey and mushy. I've read that if they swallow this part, it can get caught in their intestines and block them OR in their throat and choke them. I threw them away after reading that and reading sad stories of others who had to take their dog to the vet, expensive surgeries and such. I'll never buy them or anything like them again. I don't get anything for her that is rawhide, can splinter, etc. The best thing I've found for her to chew on that is edible and safe is called "Beefeaters Sweet Potato Snacks For Dogs". Do a search here on amazon.com or on Google and you can find them from $8.99 and up, but they're worth it to have something safe for your dog to chew on. They are all natural, satisfies her need to chew, is full of vitamins and most importantly, SAFE for her. They come in a huge bag, so for my little 6 pounder, they last a long time. Sometimes I even cut one in half and give it to her. The slices are pretty big, so they'd be very good for big dogs too. Stay clear of ANYTHING rawhide or like that if you love your four-legged baby.

If you are going to buy this to eat for enjoyment you sir are outta luck! These jelly beans are nasty and only good for some pranks on friends! Includes every FLAVOR for the most variety of nastiness (For the most part they are nasty). I love them for pranks!

First, I have to say, my dogs love this treat. I like that it has the sweet potato, but that was until the FDA started warning about chicken treats from China. Chinese produced chicken treats, like Kingdom Pets, are causing kidney failure in dogs.<br /><br />Kingdom Pets has yet to test, or release test results of their product.<br /><br />I'd avoid any chicken or other dog treats that come from China. This isn't the first time Chinese based pet products have caused a problem.

The only concern I have is the best by date. If you only buy a bag at a time no problem.

These Salt and Vinegar Almonds are one of the best snack foods I have ever tasted! They're just tangy enough to give you a good kick. Hard to find in my local stores, so I came to Amazon and bought a case :-)

I hate when people throw around the words Miracle Product about anything. It sounds so douchey. So... I've decided that would be the title of my review. I think in general, coconuts are one of the most insanely useful nuts/fruits/things(?) found in nature. Coconut water is extremely delicious (Amy & Brian's brand or C2O, the other brands can be meh), coconut milk is a great substitute for milk in certain non-dairy applications for all you hipster vegans, and Tom Hanks made a best buddy out of a whole coconut.<br /><br />Coconut oil, when it comes in the pressed extra virgin form, like with Nutiva or the other kinds you can purchase thru GNC, Vitamin World, etc. is also a miracle product. It has a lot of applications. It stays solid at room temperature which is pretty gnarly. That's not a pro nor a con, just wanted to get that out there. Knocking over an open container of this oil doesn't mean you have a mess to clean up, it just means your a klutz. It's great for hair care, so say my black friends. I have pretty thick hair so I don't really need it for that. It's awesome for skin care too, like for acne scarring or minor skin blemishes. It's completely anti-fungal and antibacterial so that means it's an all natural lubrication. That last one was not something I have any personal experience with either, it's just something I wanted to type to make any readers still here uncomfortable. But it's true according to many "What to use coconut oil for" websites. It's also good to add as a means of healthy fat to a protein shake or vegetable concoction a la Joe Rogan Experience kale shakes in the morning. Lastly, the real thing I use it for, is baking. It's a substitute for butter at a ratio of 1:1, and a substitute for shortening at .75:1, meaning 3/4 cup of coconut oil is 1 cup of shortening. Check this page out:<br />[...]<br /><br />The ChezUs recipe for banana bread is awesome. Ok, I'm not writing any more stuff about coconut oil, don't be so goddamn lazy, go research (google) it on your own. I was just supposed to write 20 words on this product but started my rant. Buy it. Or don't. I don't really care what you do. But if you do buy it, buy the 54 fl oz. jar like I did because it doesn't really spoil, more is better, and because I said so.

Where I live, Pistachios have been more expensive than some of the other nuts, so I haven't used them much. But buying them in bulk like this made them more reasonable.<br /><br />I've been enjoying them quite a bit. They are soft, almost like a Cashew, yet flavorful. Excellent for chopping and using in muffins. I'm also going to try making a salad dressing with them, and maybe some deserts.<br /><br />The quality of these was very good, they appear to be quite fresh.

I'm from Brazil and grown up with a lot of polenta but after coming to US i had problems finding something that produced the same creamy texture i was used to. I didnt want to use regular corn since most of it is genetically modified. I stayed with local ground heirloom corn from small farms which is very tasty but didnt remind of home.<br />i was very happy when i come across De La Estancia polenta. Now everytime I'm homesick I can just scoop some in a pot and its ready in a minute. And it works great for baking too.

I really was surprised at how bad this stuff really was. When I ordered it I figured with ingredients like ginger and lemon that it would make a satisfying hot wintertime drink. But alas it was downright terrible. I heated the right amount of water as per its directions and found it extremely strong and bitter. So I added more water and mix and this time added some honey for flavor and still found it too strong, and very unsatisfying. Finally I cut it with extra water and that was all she wrote, it was still bad. Worse I feel than the taste of this stuff when actually drinking it was the terrible aftertaste that lasts for some time. An hour later I could still taste some of it lingering, and it was not at all pleasant. I do not, and cannot recommend this drink at all....

I ordered the 5 oz package and received 3 oz! Amazon was unable to replace. Ordered me to mail back. Not a satisfactory transaction. Hoosier Hill Farm seller is sloppy and Amazon did not offer an agreeable solution.

My Jack Russell has problems with patella luxation. I decided against surgery after researching the success rate of it and 5 years after it was diagnosed she is still OK. I keep her weight down and give her plenty of long walks to stengthen her ligaments. The vet told me she would probably have problems with arthritis so I give her one of these chicken strips daily and also give her liquid glucosamine choindroitin on a small piece of bread. My dog loves the chicken strips, the price on Amazon is better than me buying the indivdual packs from the store and having the glucosamine in it is another way for me to administer glucosamine to her in a way that is tasty.

I'm not much of a candy eater but these pomegranate twists are much more tempting than standard licorice. Organic is great but it still has sugar and corn syrup. Don't get the idea this is health food, just because it comes from Newman's Own. However, just about everyone deserves some wasted (or waisted) calories now and then. These are small and relatively better for you than most... so go ahead and indulge.<br /><br />I took the package into work. They were gone in a couple of minutes with lots of rave reviews, including my own.

For less than $2 a bag, this is a great deal. Raisins are raisins and at my local grocery store these go for $3 a bag. The only thing that's cheaper is the huge 24 oz boxes of store brand raisins, which I rather not get since they're so huge.

They were as advertised. Not the top quality but fine for what I need them for. I grind them into powder and add to recipes in equal quantities with soy sauce. Sposed to enhance umami flavor. Good value for the price.

I use to buy these as a kid and loved them. But you never see them anymore. When I found them on the internet and ordered them, I was pleasantly surprised that they still have that wonderful flavor I loved as a kid. I'll be sure to order more!!!

Nostalgia moment: Perched on the counters of my mother's kitchen, my friends and I would eagerly await her magic mix of Carnation malt (generously added), Mayfield chocolate ice cream and enough milk to smooth it all together. She mixed it in a big bowl with a spoon and served the thick malts in cups with a spoon. Awesome chocolate malts! Those malts were perfect snacks for late night original series Star Trek. I am so glad to find it available here.

I have had this on order for about a total of 8 bags. I first had a good experience and what seemed like a quality jerky and continued to keep it ordered on my subscribe and save account. The next 2 bags were awful. There were tiny bits and they were extra hard and grisly. I thought maybe it was just a bad run and let the next order come through. They were terrible also. It was like there was one or two decent strips of meat, and the rest was inedible. I'm not sure how this keeps happening. I had meant to cancel this subscription but remembered after I was shipped another pack of two. Maybe they'll be better but I haven't been eager to to open them. Roll of the dice, I guess.

Any dog puppy to senior and any breed dog loves these treats. They go crazy over them!!! They are healthy too. I have been buying them for a few years now. How I first found out about them is I read an article online about the oldest dog to live ate these treats. So that made me want to buy them for the health of them. So I do feel good about feeding healthy treats that dogs really like the taste of!!!

The first can that I got of this wonderful oil was packed in a poor way: an old, reused box with not enough padding. When I complained the company was quick to respond - with an apology and a new can packed well for the mail. I was impressed with their responsiveness. The Merula oil itself was excellent - a great treat.

I know, low- carb and pasta seem to be unlikely partners... My husband is diabetic so we don't do pasta. We do now! It really did not raise his blood sugar ( made sure of the serving size) It tastes as good as any regular pasta, texture was good. I recommend for anyone watching carbs.
