Question: How was the product?

I am very impressed that there isn't any type of sweetener or salt in this Baby Gourmet Organic baby food.  It is surprisingly difficult to find baby food without salt and some type of sugar.  The ingredients in this formula are:  Organic pear, organic broccoli, organic spinach, ascorbic acid, organic lemon juice concentrate.The packaging lists it as 2 servings, but I think most babies can/will eat the entire package.  This is not always the case, though, so the twist on/off lid makes it very convenient for storing in the refrigerator.  The one thing I don't like is that it's difficult to see/feel if you've really gotten all of the food out of the pouch.  The food is quite expensive, and I don't like the thought of not being able to get every little drop out of the packaging.All in all, this is a great food -- tastes great, has wonderful ingredients, doesn't have unnecessary additives, and is very convenient.

Question: How tangy is the flavor?

I love to have meal bars in my purse because they are great when I don't have time to stop and eat a snack (and might otherwise reach for fast food).  However, many of them have long ingredient lists or leave something to be desired in flavor.  These Pure bars address this completely.  Much like the Lara bars they have a short list of minimally processed ingredients.  If you're tried of bars with lots of additives or ingredients you cannot pronounce you will likely find this refreshing.  The taste is also pretty decent.  Granted, it's all a matter of personal preferences, but I find these okay to eat.  It's not something I would excitedly eat over dessert, but i's definitely palatable and reminds me of a blueberry muffin.  If you've tried the Lara bars I would say the flavor and consistency are very similar.  That said, they are definitely not as tasty or texturally appealing as the bars that have more ingredients (i.e. Odwalla or Luna).  Of course, it's all about making tradeoffs so if a long ingredient list doesn't bother you, you may prefer the other two brands.  However, if you're looking for somehting with a short ingredient list that is raw, vegan, gluten-free, or certified organic this is a good choice.The bottom line is this.  I personally think it's hard to make a bar with only a few ingredients that are all natural that tastes as good as the more processed bars, but overall this one does a pretty good job.

Question: What do you think about flavor?

Flavor: It has a reasonably bold flavor, which I like (I find k-cups are often weak in flavor relative to what you'd get at a coffee shop for instance).  And it doesn't have a much acidity or after taste - clean finish.  I wouldn't call it complex or particularly interesting - just a good basic coffee.Packaging - regular box.  Would have preferred a perforated top that can store in the cabinet without pulling it out to get the kcups.

Question: How is the smell?

As we've all seen, there are numerous energy drinks out there. Many of them are loaded with artificial chemicals. For those who are interested in something more natural, Nestle has released this drink and you should consider it.As far as the ingredients go, they are all natural (with the exception of added carbonation which isn't a big deal). The first ingredients are apple juice and lemon juice so that should tell you something. No artificial colors or flavors. If you like apple juice, this one tastes pretty good. It's not a strong apple flavor as there is no added sugar other than what occurs naturally in the apple juice.As far as energy? What can I say? It works. Charged me right up and I didn't crash afterwords which is nice. The cans are 90 calories each which is from the natural sugar in the apple juice. Of course, this means you shouldn't drink half a dozen of these in a day as those calories will rise pretty quickly. All in all, this is a great, natural energy drink that won't drain you after two hours.

Question: Does the chips a good cooking point?

When I have a choice of potato chips I always choose a thick cut kettle cooked chip like these ones. Locally we have a company that does this type like very well, but Kettle brand chips are always a close second favorite.The Sriracha flavor of this one is very close to the real thing, but a bit more mild. I didn't expect to be able to finish the bag with a real Sriracha heat, but I didn't have a problem with these.Overall the chips are tasty, they have very nice potato flavor and a great crunch! I like the bag size also as it satisfies my chip craving without eating too many.

Question: How is the product?

It's very tasty but very high in calories. I use a little in my yogart instead of a bowl of cereal; because of the calories. The ingredients are healthy, lots of good stuff.The recommended serving size is only 1/3 cup and that's 130 calories before the milk. it has 3.5g of unsaturated fat, 5g fiber but only 6g of sugar; it's loaded with carbs 22g and only 20g of sodium. It's whole grains (oats, brown rice, buckwheat,amaranth, millet, quinoa) flax seed, cane juice, canola, molasses, cinnamon, sea salt with added vitamin E, chicory root,and it's glutten free

Question: How is product?

The color of the bar isn't appetizing; however, the taste is pleasant though a little too nutty for my preference.  I have organic products in the past...and well...this definitely superior to those..this one actually tasted good....many of the others left a cardboard sensation with a nasty medicinal aftertaste.  This one did not.  No added sugar as far as I can tell.  The kids didn't like it because it wasn't sweet enough...but isn't that the point of being organic...getting away from processed sugars and stuff.

Question: How is cookie?

First, I am not a HUGE cookie fan. I tend to like savory or salty snacks, or cake. But I do love chocolate and peppermint patties (York,or the former "After Eight" thin mints)/ These cookies were a pleasing surprise for me, because it combines both, while leaving the cookie moist and flavorful. Some cookies that include mint, are just a little too dry for me. Since there is actual peppermint filling, as opposed to just peppermint-flavored cookie, I liked these cookies very much. I gave these cookies a 4/5 due to the texture and flavor based on my tastes. If the chocolate was a tad sweeter I may have given them a 5. Overall, a fun, refreshing and different snack-give them a try!

Question: How is the flavor?

Not what I would call a cold season tea, Blackberry Vanilla Caffeine Free Herbal Tea from Lipton has a very interesting fruity flavor, more reminiscent of a spring day than the upcoming fall season.The tea has a strong tart side so I would recommend reducing the brew time from the recommended 4 to 6 minutes.  Do not be put off by the deep red color, it makes you think raspberry but that is not the flavor that you will taste.For a change, I brewed four pyramid bags in three cups of water and after it cooled, poured it over a glass of ice.  This is my preferred method of drinking it.  I do not like sugar in my tea, but decided to give it a little whirl.  Something happened with this mix, because I came away with an artificial aftertaste.  If you prefer more of a black tea taste in you iced tea, add an extra Lipton orange pekoe bag.  A perfect combination.Overall, a good product for warm weather drinking, excellent iced and the tart flavor hits the right spot.

Question: Why do I have a tea green?

I have been drinking a lot of green tea, every day, for about 8 years, when I heard that it might help with allergies. I have terrible dst/pollen allergies which manifest as an itchy throat and uncontrollable cough, and have never found anything to control it. And green tea works.Lipton regular green tea is good, and with the blackberry and pomegranate flavors added, this is a super good-for-you and a super delicious drink. I drink it hot and cold. Try it with a little honey!!!

Question: How is the flavor?

I just tried this Puroast Low Acid Coffee and from first impressions the coffee is very nice and the low acid nature helps with the sour-y aftertaste that I generally experience when drinking black coffee.I tried the coffee several different ways; black , with cream & sugar, and even with condensed milk.  The coffee was made in aKeurig B-70 B70 Platinum Single-Cup Home Brewing Systemwith the my Solofill Cup, Refillable K-Cup For Keurig K-Cup Brewers, Red k-cup filter that allows me to use the coffee of my choice.  In all instances I filled the my k-cup to the brim of the filler pod and gently tapped but not tamping the grounds.  the water temperature is set to the max (which i believe is about 208 F) and made the largest serving available.  This is how I usually drink my coffee in the morning whether in a my k-cup or using the disposable kcups so its the best for me to judge the difference.Even in the largest serving, the coffee is still plenty bold and has great aroma and body.  I generally avoid drinking black coffee because of that acidic aftertaste that I don't particularly like.  That is the reason that I generally use both cream and sugar.  With this low acid blend, I can definitely drink this black if that's what I'm in the mood for.

Question: How much is the flavor on this?

The best thing about this mint-mocha coffee is that the flavor is more subtle than in a lot of flavored brews.  I generally drink my coffee black and enjoy even the cheapest brands, so I'm not looking for added flavors to overwhelm the basic taste.

Question: What is the flavor of the roses?

This version of the water flavor enhancer has too little flavor for too much money.  My husband took half of the bottle to work with him to use during his breaks.  He said he used the entire half bottle in one regular bottle of aquafina water.  It gave it so little flavor it just made it undrinkable.  I would buy other flavors of the MIO but not this one!

Question: How is the product?

This is the first time I've used this brand.  It appears to be the same as other brands I've tried (Trader Joe's and Harvest something?), and they all seemed about the same to me - I never had two side-by-side to do a taste or cooking test, but using them one after the other, I was unable to distinguish between them.I know the Trader Joe's brand was half the price of the first brand we tried, but I don't remember how their price compares to Viva Labs.My mother-in-law, who happened to be here when we opened the Viva Labs jar, said it was far more coconut flavored than the brands she has tried.  For some things, I'd count that as a positive, but most recently, we made home-made Magic Shell, and the coconut flavor was a bit too strong for putting on flavored ice creams.But, in short, next time I go to buy a jar, I'll check this brand out and see how it compares price-wise with what I get locally.Note: I was given this jar by the manufacturer in exchange for a review (whether positive or negative).

It appears to be the same as other brands I've tried (Trader Joe's and Harvest something?), and they all seemed about the same to me - I never had two side-by-side to do a taste or cooking test, but using them one after the other, I was unable to distinguish between them.I know the Trader Joe's brand was half the price of the first brand we tried, but I don't remember how their price compares to Viva Labs.My mother-in-law, who happened to be here when we opened the Viva Labs jar, said it was far more coconut flavored than the brands she has tried. For some things, I'd count that as a positive, but most recently, we made home-made Magic Shell, and the <hl> coconut flavor was a bit too strong <hl> for putting on flavored ice creams.But, in short, next time I go to buy a jar, I'll check this brand out and see how it compares price-wise with what I get locally.Note: I was given this jar by the manufacturer in exchange for a review (whether positive or negative).


Question: What is flavor?

I really liked these.  The apple and cinnamon flavors are mild and natural-tasting, and the texture of the crackers is very good.  They're not as crumbly as regular graham crackers -- perhaps because of the added oats.  While I used this package just for snacking, I think I'll try making a cheesecake crust with my next package.  I think it will add a delicious "kick" to the crust.

Question: How pleasing is the aroma?

The tea has a nice spice flavor, medium dark reddish brown coloring, and light aroma.  I did not find the tea to be as spicy as some other brands, but it was delicious none the less.

Question: What are cookies?

I got theses yesterday, tried a couple, and put them out on the counter. Everyone in the house has been grabbing one as they walk by. There are only three left.These cookies are light,crispy and flavorful. They're just sweet enough to satisfy without loading you up with sugar.These are a winner. I'm going to snag one of the last ones now while I have a chance.

Question: How lovely is the flavor?

I got into herbal teas a few years ago and went crazy, trying many different flavors.  I eventually realized that there were two general classes of teas: those padded with hibiscus and rose hips, and those more pure (less flowery) in flavor.  Lipton Blackberry Vanilla falls into the former category, with an immediate taste and fragrance of rose.  If you drink herbal teas, you likely already know if this is a good or bad thing to you.  Otherwise, the color is dark and beautiful, and the blackberry flavor is pronounced and good.  The vanilla is appropriately subtle.Whether sweetened or straight, I found this tea very pleasant and soothing.  If you don't mind eating a bouquet, it will likely please you too.

Question: How is the reaction to food and preservatives?

It is nearly impossible to get my teenager to drink water, so these Mio flavor enhancers are a lifesaver in our house! I personally prefer the peach tea one because it has a more natural flavor, and I think this one is a bit sharp on the throat if you use enough to get a good flavor (not really a burning sensation but you feel it, if that makes sense). My younger son doesn't like them at all because he feels they're either too weak and they bother his throat if he makes it strong enough. We now have five flavors in the house to give my teenager variety and to keep him drinking water. They are definitely worth a try, as each person will have individual tastes.

Question: How is flavor?

I'll confess I've never heard of the Pu'erh tree, and since I am an herbal tea, rather than a black tea drinker, I had some reservations about whether I would like this because I was afraid it would taste too much like black tea.  I'm pleased to report it does not.  It has a unique flavor that I really don't know how to describe.  The box describes it as "earthy" and that's as good a description as any.  The other flavor it is infused with is ginger.  It was the addition of the ginger that prompted me to try this as I love the flavor of ginger, so I was disappointed to find that I can neither smell nor taste any ginger in this tea.What I like about it is that those are the only two ingredients: Pu'erh and Ginger, both organic.  You can't get purer than that, and I like that there are no hidden ingredients I have to worry about.  While the flavor is earthy, it is not strong, even when I leave the tea bag in to steep while drinking the tea.

Question: How is the tea?

I find it sometimes bemusing to write reviews on tea, this being my second or third review of various teas. However, that said, I am no expert conesour when it comes to tea so my review is completely from a layman's perspective. This tea is nice with a strong hint of fruitiness. It is not bitter and does not leave a filmy aftertaste in your mouth like some do. Overall, it is pleasant to drink and, given all the benefits of green tea, I highly recommend this as something a little different if you enjoy green tea. thanks.

Question: Which flavor do you like chocolate or vanilla?

Whew! These things... man, these things are delicious.If you like white chocolate, buy these. At the price (a quarter a pop) they're well worth it.The white chocolate shell on these is soft, sort of flexible. Inside is a white chocolate filling that is DELICIOUS. Several guests have tried these, and it's fun watching their eyes go wide when the flavor hits. These make for a decadent treat and look really classy left in a bowl for guests. Of all the individually wrapped bonbons or truffles I've had, I think these are my favorite. The white chocolate really is just so luxurious and delicious.FIVE STARS!

Question: What would be a perfect mix for you?

I'm a big chile head.I fancy myself as a connoisseur of hot chiles, an aficionado of hot stuff, if you will. Let's say it right off the bat, this sauce is not that hot. Considering that the chile ingredient is Habanero, which is a 10 on the hot temperature scale, I was quite surprised. I grow many different type of chiles, including Habaneros and use them for cooking, sauces etc. The Habanero is very difficult to work into a sauce. even a salsa because it is so hot and dominate. Not so with this  sauce. There is just a taste of heat, mostly as an afterburner that hardly effects the overall taste.The fusion of exotic ingredients creates new flavors that work quite nicely. So if you think this might be too hot, fear not, it is just very tasty. It is an excellent grilling sauce. It works well with fish and chicken best but do not limit your choices. Anything that you want to perk up will benefit from this delicious sauce. I recently ran out of my favorite New Mexico chile honey for my breakfast toast(I told you I was a chile head)so after reading the ingredients of this sauce I decided to spread some on my toast. It was an outstanding flavor for the toast, with just a hint of heat. The first two listed ingredients are sugar and honey so you see it is actually rather sweet. Another use for this sauce I tried, that is a little unconventional too, but not for a chile head though, is to mix it in a soft cheese,like goat cheese. Try this spread over crackers for a real treat. Anyway, I thought I would just throw in a few suggestions that I tried this flavorful sauce on that you might try. I highly recommend this sauce to spice up your life!

Question: How do you rate the flavor?

I don't care if it is just juice concentrate, reconstituted with carbonated water instead of plain water -- the stuff tastes good!  The carbonation makes it taste nice and light, instead of super-sweet or -strong like many juices.  As a heartfelt devourer of all things cherry, I really liked this Switch black cherry drink.On the other hand, it was so tasty, so light, so refreshing, that I easily could have knocked down three or four of these SMALL 8.3 ounce cans.  However, seeing as the primary ingredient is (reconstituted) APPLE juice (that's right, NOT cherry!) and the tiny can has 130 Calories of sugars (natural to the juice, I'm sure, but still) - it is probably a good thing the can is so small, or I'd have had 500 calories just like that!  Even Coke only has about 100 calories per 8 ounces!Anyway, Switch tastes awesome.  When I get more, I want to try it as a mixer with vodka.  And I wish the flavor was a little bit more cherry and less apple/grape.

Question: How about the tea?

This aromatic tea is pure pleasure - spicy, fragrant and relaxing, while at the same time being an ideal first-tea-of-the-day wake-up. Its warming tones mellows out any irritations you might wake up to and the scent of the tea as it steeps is heavenly. The only drawback is the fact that it only has 16 bags in the box!! This could easily become a fixation tea for me, if I wanted to totally break away from all the other great teas in my collection. A truly wonderful addition to my tea pantry, and one I plan on keeping in stock.

Question: Is this product bad?

I was pleasantly surprised by this drink.  It really doesn't have any added sugar, and the flavor is very natural.  The carbonation is light, so if you're looking for something with a lot of kick, this might not suit you.  But I think it compliments the fruit flavor nicely.Two things took me aback:  First, that the can was just a bit over 8oz, which is small for those of us used to normal-size carbonated beverage cans.  And second, in spite of having no added sugar, it's really quite sweet.  I found it almost too sweet for my taste.It's a nice change from soda, but given the amount you get for the price, I don't think it's a great deal.

Question: Is it a bad flavor what it feels like?

OK, let me start out by saying that I love nuts and none more so than cashews. Whenever there is a bowl of them at a party, you will find me nearby happily munching away. And so when I saw that these cashews came “lightly roasted with natural sea salt and a hint of pepper,” let’s just say that I was intrigued.I got the canister of the nuts (I like the new packaging that Emerald has come up with), I cracked it open and poured out a handful for inspection. What I noticed right off the bat was that there wasn’t a hint of black pepper on these nuts, there was a shout! That’s right, at least with the nuts I got, there was more pepper on the nuts than salt.Never one to turn my back on cashews I started munching. As other reviewers have said, the taste of pepper was very strong, making eating them an entirely new experience. Depending on what you are drinking, these hot little nuts might really do it for you. But, when my entire family had gathered around it was found that I was the only one who found them to be edible. They are quite different and quite interesting, but they are definitely not for everyone.So, while my family gives them a firm thumbs down, I give them a guarded thumb’s up. Are they terrible, ruined cashews? I don’t think so...just know what you are getting.

They are quite different and quite interesting, but they are definitely not for everyone.So, while my family gives them a firm thumbs down, I give them a guarded thumb’s up. Are they terrible, ruined cashews? I don’t think so...just know what you are getting.

Whenever there is a bowl of them at a party, <hl> you will find me nearby happily munching away <hl> .


Question: How fantastic is the aroma?

I brewed the Gevalia Dark Chocolate Truffle coffee both in a Cuisinart automatic brew coffee maker and a french press. I followed the instructions on the package - 1 rounded tablespoon for each 6 ounce cup of coffee. I found the same taste results with both methods. I like a good cup of black coffee but am not fanatical about it. I do grind fresh bold or medium body beans each morning and use filtered water to prepare the pot.As someone who usually adds a little espresso or instant espresso powder to most chocolate recipes I know this flavor combination is a wonderful marriage. Depending on the percentage of espresso to chocolate, the result is either a deep mocha flavor with the coffee playing a major role, or a small addition will result in complex chocolate flavor with no obvious coffee component.  Unfortunately, with the Gevalia Dark Chocolate Truffle coffee the merger of coffee and chocolate adversely affected both the coffee and the chocolate flavor.There is a definite aftertaste from the artificial flavor, and the coffee itself is bitter and acidic. I do not know if the artificial flavor affected the coffee or the coffee is bitter and acidic on its own but, after each sip I had an involuntary puckering reaction, not my lips, but the inside of my cheeks as if I was consuming something containing acetic acid, like vinegar, not that it tasted like vinegar - it didn't.  The flavor was remarkably unpleasant, and when the cup cooled off, it tasted worse. Even the aroma while brewing smelled artificial.The other reviewers who mention how greatly improved the flavor became once cream was added is an indication of a consistent problem.  I love the taste of coffee and like it unadorned - no cream or sugar. I only add cream if I am in a restaurant and the coffee doesn't taste good. I use the cream to doctor-it-up in hopes of salvaging some of the flavor and masking the poor aspects whether caused by bitterness or coffee that's been sitting in the pot too long.  This coffee is no exception, the cream vastly improved the drinkability, but the action is akin to smearing butter on a day old roll. Underneath it is still a stale roll, and although the butter tastes delicious, it would not be accurate to call the combination a buttery delight.On the positive side, flavored coffees are usually light body and the Gevalia is definitely medium body. The packaging is quite attractive and the name is clever, but in the end may work against the product because Dark Chocolate Truffle evokes a clear taste profile for most people and the coffee doesn't live up to the name. I am rating the coffee three stars instead of less because if the purchaser always uses cream in their coffee, many of the taste issues I encountered should be if not resolved, at least mitigated.

Question: Where can i buy some potatoe chip?

I like the texture of these chips.  They are lighter and crisper and less dense/hard than typical tortilla chips and therefore much kinder to the interior of my mouth.  These chips remind me of Bugles, not in shape but in texture.  To me the chili lime version is too spicy hot but my daughter and son in law don't agree.  We all liked the ranch flavor, both straight from the bag and with hummus.  The chips are good and I appreciate that they have less fat and fewer calories.  But they are not so great that I would go out and buy more.

Question: How much was the content of seeds and nuts?

I'm trying my first bar of PURE Organic Cherry Cashew Raw Fruit and Nut Bar as I type this. The package contains all vital information including ingredients, and a list of all the positive things it has in it (rich in Omega 3's, etc.) as well as a list of what it does not have (like gluten, diary, soy, transfats, etc.).  The bar itself is dark brown and fairly soft. As I bite into it, the texture is pleasing and right away I can see a few small bits of nuts and dates.  The taste is pleasing, with tart cherries balancing the taste of dates.  Fortuantely, there is no "sawdust" feel as I swallow, just a bit of grainyness that you might expect from a healthy raw fruit and nut bar.  All in all, a very pleasant and tasty experience.

Question: How is the flavor?

This back to nature cereal with summer berries was delicious but gone in 2 1/2 bowls.  Maybe I have really bigbowls?  It has an excellent flavor, much better than other cardboard varieties and the berries seemed real, notrubbery.  Flakes soaked up milk quickly and weren't scratchy.  Just right amount of sweetness unless you are addicted to sugar.  Didn't have that dry musty taste of high fiber cereals.

Question: How is the quality of flavor?

Initial responses:Sight - looks like a green tea in color. Realize that there are solid chunks in the drink (I think it might be the aloe). I like the fact that all the ingredients are recognizable. I think the only thing that might be acting as a preservative is the citric acid.Smell - floral and citrus - smells really good.Feel - the chunks are noticeable in the mouth when drinking. Somewhat difficult to drink as the chunks either get stuck in my teeth and block the flow of tea (not joking) or get stuck on the outside of my mouth. Otherwise refreshing.Taste - The chunks are like little explosions of flavor. I am fairly certain that the chunks are aloe vera. The green tea taste is distinct but not overpowering. The passion fruit flavor gives this a very floral taste. Sweet to the taste. Leaves a lingering bitterness/tartness after drinking. Somewhat unpleasant.Overall impressions:This is a relatively low calorie (80) and somewhat refreshing drink. However, the amount of sugar within (and this is a considerable factor) and the related taste associations keep me from giving this more stars. This drink has 19g of sugar, the equivalent of about 1 1/3 tablespoon. It is the second ingredient listed. Granted, some of the sugars may come from the Aloe Vera (or even perhaps the passion fruit flavor?). But based on the Mayo Clinic's analysis of 2010 Dietary recommendations, by having this one drink you've already had over 1/9 of your daily recommended sugar for men, and over 1/6 for women. This is a little disconcerting, in my opinion. When you look at something (especially like tea, and aloe, and passion fruit) like this drink, you think of things that are generally healthy. There's just so much sugar in this that it becomes difficult for me to give this a more positive review.I think that the only redeeming aspect of this is that the calories are not ALL empty calories (like a soda) as you're assumedly getting antioxidants from the green tea - but why not just drink green tea in that case?

Question: How is the product?

I loved these savory teas. Granted, I've not tried other brands, so I've no comparison. I thought each of the flavors was clear and strong--though I steeped mine quite longer than the recommended 10 minutes. At the recommended time, the flavor was just piquing. Letting them go about twice that brought them to a fullness I enjoyed.I take mine with just a pinch of salt, enough to enhance both the savory and sweet notes, and the flavors were delicious. I will definitely buy these again, and will keep my eye out for other combinations.

Question: How is the tea?

My husband Patrick & I enjoyed the experience immensely.One caution, since the color is so vibrant, be careful of staining opportunities.

Question: How about the tea?

Numi Teas are the most wonderful teas I've tasted in a long time. I recently became acquainted with them at an event where they were the tea of choice on the dessert table. I used to love Tazo but Numi is my new favorite. First off, as soon as you open the box, the fragrance of the tea hits you. And cardamom has to be one of the most glorious fragrances on the planet. It's a sweet, gentle fragrance that affects my mood and makes me happy. It also tastes good (cardamom, in general, tastes amazing in everything - I wonder why we Americans don't use it more regularly). This tea also has a slightly spicy flavor but not as spicy as say a strong chai tea. I have tried this with a little milk but prefer it without in general.Pu-erh Tea is a tea that is fermented as opposed to oxidized. I believe traditional oolong black teas and green teas are oxidized. Oxidized teas do have a lot of health benefits but apparently, fermented tea also has numerous benefits without the punch of caffeine. Fermented tea is reportedly better for the digestive process than oxidized teas but I don't know what the science really is on that.Delicious, richness in a cup. Price is a bit high but it really is a lovely tea. Maybe as a treat.

Question: Why is the product good?

This is a very good tasting granola. The almonds in the "banana nut" flavor are very hard, so if this is not a problem go for it and try it out! The cost is high for such a small amount of granola and it doesn't last long even buying it in bulk packages of pack of six in 12 ounce packs. It's all natural which is good, but for the cost I think it would be worth the time to buy the ingredients yourself to save some money.

Question: How is the flavor?

Taste? Ok. The strawberry and banana flavors weren't bad, but there is an acidic bite to the drink as well. Tastes like Red Bull mixed up with Hawaiian Punch.Healthy? Naw. 20 grams of sugar. All natural ingredients . . . but I doubt it is any healthier than your average soda.Energy? Yep. Same caffeine as a cup of coffee.Overall: If you want to wake up in the morning without drinking coffee or Diet Coke, this could be your drink of choice. The flavor is not great, but its comparable with the other energy drinks out there and you will get your caffeine fix.
