11,300 | Love this wine!! tastes amazinggggggg and affordable! cant go wrong with any Rodney Strong wine!!any year...wish I had a glass right now mmm! |
11,301 | Just wanted to say I give these 5 stars even for not being on a diet that calls for them. Less salty than crackers, and more tender than pretzels or packages of breadsticks I remember from many years ago.
One box of these is 3.5 oz in weight total, 440 calories, and 6 grams of fat. And that's divided into 5 packets of about 7 sticks each. Pretty hard to overeat these very badly! |
11,302 | Diamond Almonds
Almonds are a good source of magnesium. One ounce contain approximately 20% of the RDA for an adult recommended dietary allowance (RDA)
Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) the amounts of selected nutrients considered adequate to meet the known nutrient needs of healthy people. The RDA is based on scientific knowledge and has been presented by a committee of the Food and Nutrition Board (FNB) of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS). The Canadian equivalent is the Recommended Nutrient Intakes. RDA is generally accepted throughout the world as a valid source of information. At least 40 different nations have as well as organizations have published standards similar to the RDA.
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health. Approximately 50% of total body magnesium is found in bone. The other half is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Only 1% of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant.
Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Dietary magnesium is absorbed in the small intestines. Are you taking enough magnesium in the diet? The recommended daily allowance is 300mgs/day for men, 350mgs for women. Magnesium is extremely safe by mouth - too much simply causes diarrhea. Try increasing the amount of magnesium you take by mouth until it causes diarrhea, then reduce the dose slightly so it does not. This is called taking magnesium to bowel tolerance (just like using vitamin C to bowel tolerance.
Almonds are a good source of Fiber.
One ounce contains approximately 12% of the RDA for an adult.
So, in summary, Almonds are a very healthy snack, so what's left to say?
Two things:
1st be cautious about "bowel tolerance" or "happy bowels" if you prefer.
2nd Taste. I realize that taste is a personal thing. That's why they make chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla.
Here's my current favorites"
1st Blue Diamond Dark mint dark chocolate (reminds me of the chocolate mint Girl Scout Cookies with less sugar).
2nd Blue diamond Dark Chocolate Oven Roasted
3rd Blue diamond Blue Butter Toffee
4thd Blue Diamond Almonds Bold Habanero BBQ (reminds me of BBQ potato chips again with less sugar).
5th Bold Blazin Buffalo Wing
6th Blue Diamond Almonds Cinnamon Brown Sugar
7th Blue Diamond Almonds Lime `n Chili
8th Blue Diamond Almonds Smokehouse
9th Bold Wasabi & Soy Sauce
But that's just me: you might have a completely different take on these flavors.
4th and 5th are very close.

11,303 | These are very good. And they are just the right size for a guilt-free, daily chocolate fix. I first heard of these from my organic food delivery website. I had 4 of these mints delivered with my last order and liked them so much I thought I'd order 7 mints for next week. That would be JUST enough to have one a day, but not enough to get me into any trouble. Amazon's price is, of course, the best price on these I've found, so am ordering a whole box.
Let's see, 64 mints, at one mint a day, should last 2 months.... I'll let you know how that goes! If that doesn't work out as planned, I may have to go back to Plan A - having just 7 a week delivered. |
11,304 | This price is way more than everywhere else! you can purchase this product in the official web site for $9.99 a can! |
11,305 | We'd just bought a new Keurig coffeemaker and wanted to try an assortment to see what we liked.
We love Green Mountain blend coffee, but the Breakfast Blend was a big disappointment. It is a light roast, but it tastes as though something was added to make it bitter. Maybe it's chicory. Whatever it is, the aftertaste is unpleasant.
Dark Magic was okay for a darker roast, but we have found other dark roasts by Green Mountain that we like better.
If you are looking to try different kinds, it is much better to find a local grocer that sells k-cups individually. |
11,306 | this is a good name and a good value; the texture and size of the jerky is fine,
but be prepared for the salt. It ruined it for me. |
11,307 | I'm glad I was able to find this on Amazon. I love this tea and it's difficult to locate. The item was shipped quickly! Thanks |
11,308 | it's good but i found the same stuff in my supermarket for a buck or so cheeper |
11,309 | Our Jackabee (Russell/Beagle mix)seemed to love the taste of this food more than the "regular over-the-counter" food from the store. In fact, he couldn't wait to eat it. He probably would have eaten more if we allowed him to gorge himself on it. There were no adverse reactions to the switch. You just have to slowly wean your dog off the cheap stuff, otherwise, you dog could experience loose stools. |
11,310 | Although the product grew very quickly (within one week) and our cats absolutely loved the product, we ended up throwing it in the trash after two weeks because of some sort of mold or fungal growth. I'm assuming that the particular seeds used in the product must be more prone to fungal growth. We kept the pot in the laundry room during the day so the cats wouldn't eat themselves silly, so perhaps the location was too warm in addition to the contents staying moist all the time. Regardless, I would never purchase this product again because I don't want to risk my cats getting sick from it. We are trying other brands of kitty grass to see how the will work - we're trying to satisfy their craving for greens so they will stop eating my houseplants. |
11,311 | Apples and chamomile - who knew it would be so soothing together? My favorite herbal tea! |
11,312 | My Children absolutely loved this. They invariably chose it for their lunchboxes everyday. My only problem was that we ran out of it and I havent been able to order it since it has been out of stock all month. I like that it is a snack with some nutritional value. A little pricey but amazon's price was by far more reasonable than the brick and mortar stores around me. Thanks amazon. |
11,313 | These are soooo good but make sure you shake the bag and evenly spread the pieces out within the bag and micro for about 70-90 seconds depending on your microwave. Always keep an eye on the bag once it blows up to its full area DON'T let it go for any longer than 20 seconds or they will burn and with the hot and spicy your kitchen and your eyes will feel like you have been pepper sprayed. Little more difficult to cook but its worth it. Enjoy |
11,314 | This would be even better if there was a little more variety. It would be nice to have some flavored coffees included. But, the coffee that is included is good. Just need a little more "variety" in their "variety sampler". |
11,315 | This berry is gross! It even made me sick! I would not advise any one to buy this item. |
11,316 | This is more spicy and flavorful than the Green Mountain brand. For those that enjoy a robust flavored cider, this is the one. I obtained mine from the local Walmart for $7.98 |
11,317 | Pros:
Dog will do anything for this treat.
Doesn't smell as bad as many other treats.
Easy to break into smaller pieces.
Nothing artificial, easy digestion.
Cons:
More costly than other dog treats.
Overall, this is a great product. While more expensive, my dog will do anything for this treat. He has several phobias, including getting in and out of the car, and walking through doorways, but he ignores all of his fears to get to this treat. |
11,318 | I won't eat most light or fat free dressings because if you read the label, what they take out, they generally replace with sugar and sugar spikes my appetite big time and yet, a 1 TBS serving of my favorite regular Hidden Valley Ranch dressing doesn't even begin to cover my salad the way I'd like. I'd need at least 3 TBS to make it how I want and that's just too much fat for one meal. It's almost the RDA for an entire day so that's not really feasible for me.
What to do??
I was THRILLED to find this dressing at my local supermarket. I think it tastes "okay" right out of the bottle but to my tastebuds, it does leave something to be desired. To make it into something I look forward to eating, I do the following:
Hidden Valley Ranch has such a strong flavor so I can take 1 TBS of it, 2 TBS of Walden Farms Ranch dressing and approximately 2 TBS of water. Mix well and I have enough dressing for a good sized salad - about 1.5 to 2 cups of greens and it tastes GOOD to me. I don't feel at all deprived and I'm getting fewer calories (there are 70 calories in 1 TBS of Hidden Valley Ranch dressing) and it's plenty thick for what I want it to do and that's cover the salad. I don't want it drenched exactly but I want that ranch flavor with every bite. I eat this dressing almost exclusively now on any kind of salad - turkey taco, chef, asian greens, etc.
Sometimes I'll add 1 TBS of flaxseed oil to the mix to get the benefit of the omega 3's however, be aware that 1 TBS of flaxseed oil has approximately 120 calories in it so if you're watching calories then take that into consideration.
The above recipe is also not a bad dip for veggies though it is somewhat thin in consistency. I like it best on salads. |
11,319 | I love this coconut oil! It tastes good and stays fresh in my cupboard in the container. It is exactly what I wanted and works beautifully for my family. |
11,320 | I've been eating these dried cherries since Christmas 2007. Every order has tasted the same; they have always been tart and delicious. (One small exception: one package had a few cherries that tasted "earthy." However, I've decided to overlook that aberration because the remainder of the cherries in that package tasted delicious & that hasn't happened again.) I've also never had an issue with timely delivery of the products (I hope I didn't just jinx myself!) |
11,321 | My cats don't have dental problems, fortunately, but I thought I would try this product just to see if they would even like it. They gobbled it up, and managed to keep it down, so they must like it.
Haven't had it long enough to know if it contributed to their dental health. |
11,322 | I was SOOOO glad to find these on Amazon - and even happier to see that they offered auto delivery. I don't care for Mediterranean or Turkish apricots as much, and California apricots have become increasingly hard to find. My local grocery store (a MAJOR chain) recently stopped carrying them, so I immediately started searching online to see where they might be available. Of course, Amazon was the first place I looked. I love to cook these (just boil in some water for 15-20 minutes) and maybe add some sugar or artificial sweetener and eat them - especially when a lot of fresh fruits aren't in season. I often eat them in place of jelly on toast. But really - if you are searching for apricots to use to make a pie or smaller fried pies, these apricots can't be beat. They are tart, have a great flavor, and cook up much better than other types of apricots, which usually remain whole, chunky or tough, even after cooking. Thanks, Amazon, for carrying these - and Sun-Maid, please continue to make them available! |
11,323 | Even though the item says "Pack of 6," I only received one. I called them up to see where the other 5 were, and they said that Amazon put it incorrectly. Seriously?? They are issuing a refund, but still. I wanted 6, which is what the item says, and instead and only getting the 1. Should we just not trust what's on Amazon now??? |
11,324 | This bar is great for getting raw fruit and nuts into your family. Could the nuts be chopped a bit smaller? Sure. But then the whole bar would be too mushy. Could they use fewer dates (to cut the sugar) and make the bar as moist? Doubtful. Cheries are tough as dried fruit goes, and I'm guessing that's the reason for the excessive dates. (Note, though, I can't stand plain dates and I don't notice the flavor or find them overwhelming. I'd just like a more tart, less sweet bar.)
This is the alternative to giving yourself and your family dried fruit--this bar is softer, easier to share, and slightly more flavorful than the best dried fruit. It makes nuts palatable to kids who think they don't like nuts. And that means more protein into your diet (though not as much as I'd like, it has exponentially more than plain fruit).
Great bar. Good price through Amazon. Stash these bars in your car, your briefcase, your desk drawer, your diaper bag, your kids' backpacks, and your family's workout bags. |
11,325 | THIS WAS AEWFUL TASTED TERRIBLE AFTER A FEW SIPS I COULDN'T GIVE THE SODA AWAY TO CONSTRUCTION WORKERS WORKING AT A NEARBY HOME. |
11,326 | Took a chance on these mini chips and I have not been disappointed. They have a delicious flavor! I have been so pleased with them that I have just re-ordered! |
11,327 | My almost-11-year-old lab (who still believes he is a puppy) struggles with a food allergies and hip dysplasia. We've tried every premium dog food under the sun and just found Innova EVO about a month ago. In that month, his energy is up, his hips seem to be stronger, his coat has become thick and shiny and he no longer scratches... at all! This stuff is amazing! He used to have redness on his stomach and in his ears and that's all gone too. I am thrilled with the results - our sweet boy is feeling good and happy again and I love knowing we've found something that works so well for him. Thanks Innova! |
11,328 | I have tried so many K cups I can't keep track of them all, but the Hazelnut from Gloria Jean's is still my all time fave. |
11,329 | These are a tasty snack that hit the spot. you can eat them plain, or crumble them up and toss in salads. they are not too salty and are satisfying. |
11,330 | I recieved the product very quickly, no problems at all with payment or with shipping. I expected a more true pupmkin flavor, it is more of a spice flavor. It is good, just not what i expected. |
11,331 | We lived in Canada for three years and it is the only coffee we drank while there. There was a Tim Horton's on every block. It's good coffee and once you get the taste for it you just want to always have it around. It became my every day blend. Then we moved to Texas where there is none to be found.
Needless to say when I discovered it here several months ago I jumped on it. We like to grind our own beans so I bought a 2lb bag. Then I went to order again just to find it was unavailable. Bummer we were out for a while. Then I saw the 12 1lb bag case become available so I decided to spring for the $83.00 and got the case of 12 1lb bags. That was pretty convenient. We just opened one and kept the rest in the spare refrigerator unopened. I did not wait to run out this time so I went to re-order the 1lb bags and found them unavailable.
Well look here now, its the 2lb bag again so I bought several of those. Bottom line. If your into the beans stock up and start looking to reorder before you run out.
Now all we need is the K cup version for the times I just want one more cup. |
11,332 | (Im sorry for my english, im not from eua)This is very pretty, but teast like nothing, are just to see, not to eat! i used for my 2 year old b. party for my daghter, the theme was snow white, i used to put in the whitch table as a magic potion! it was beautifoul, i gave 4 stars just for the taste, if u want to buy to eat, dont, it teast like nothing! |
11,333 | For some reason, the Celestial Seasonings Chai Tea is hard for me to find. I have tried about 5 other brands, including all the major and some regional tea brands, and nothing else compares to this blend. Thanks for making this readily available and at a great price.
Service was really fast and everything arrived in perfect condition. |
11,334 | This oatmeal is great and organic. Much better price than Baby's r Us or Ralphs. Good ingredients. Would buy again. |
11,335 | we really enjoyed the quality and taste of this product. If you do subscribe and save and have free shipping its a great deal. |
11,336 | These puffs are great. My little man loves them and they are gluten free which is the best part.plus they tastes really good. |
11,337 | The big problem with these crackers is that you can't stop eating them. Great with pate or chopped chicken liver spread. |
11,338 | Started ordering these yummy, rich chocolate cookies a few months ago.As most chocolate lovers know,it's not worth it to eat poor quality chocolate. These are filled with dark chocolate bits and are soft and creamy in the mouth.Actually they are so good that eating "just one" is truly satisfying. |
11,339 | This item arrived pretty quick- ordered on Monday and arrived on Thursday. The packaging was secure and it arrived in great shape.
After using this in my smoothies I will defintely continue to use hempseed as a major ingredient. I felt an energy boost and my mood was vastly improved! |
11,340 | Years ago Philips and Douwe Egberts were partners in the development of the machine and coffee pods. The copyright on the pod system was ruled invalid and a decision was made to offer the pods via on line vendors only; no more brick and mortar stores. Philips then sold their share of the coffee business to Douwe Egberts and are moving pod production to Brazil. This is causing the delay, especially with the Dark Roast. According to Senseo the coffee should be by June or July at the latest. Or so they say. I am surprised that they have not made this info more available. Seems like many will simply move on to another coffee machine. Meanwhile try using a regular coffee filter and espresso grind your own coffee. I've tried Starbucks coffee and not bad. Less creama, but good flavor. Google 'make your own coffee pods' to see the methods used to trim the filter and pack the coffee. It's easy, but not so easy as dropping two pods and pushing the start button. |
11,341 | I am always looking for decent products without high fructose corn syrup, or even corn syrup at all, and grenadine syrup without it is VERY hard to find. This Monin syrup fills the bill and tastes great too. Natural Tequila Sunrises, here we come. |
11,342 | I would always go to Starbucks whenever I was in the mood for peppermint hot cocoa because I didn't know of any brands that sold individual packages of it. Then I discovered Stephen's.. I can honestly say that I will never have to go back to Starbucks again when I'm craving hot cocoa. This is the best hot cocoa I have ever tasted in my entire life, it really does taste like Christmas in a cup!! |
11,343 | Okay I have recently order this product, & when it came into the Mail.
I noticed that one was the RIGHT box & then the other box wasn't even the 'same kind' as the OTHER one!
So I had one RIGHT & the other WRONG!! but next time it would be more helpful, if both were the SAME! |
11,344 | This is the best tasting snack I've ever had. at work they have them in the vending machine, and on a daily basis I get them. I decided I should order some for myself instead of using all my change in the machine! They are healthy for you, and taste as though you have scooped up fresh salsa onto a chip. The brown rice chips themselves are delicious, very light with an interesting taste. I highly recommend this! |
11,345 | My dogs get more excited over Greenies than any other treat. I have one German Shorthair that is a notoriously finicky eater, and she has flat-out refused many varieties of dental bones. Not only do the Greenies do a great job of keeping her teeth clean, but she practically does back flips when it's time for her daily chew.
I have pointers between 45 and 60 pounds, and the regular size is great for them. Greenies are not a chew that will last very long (usually about 30 seconds with my dogs) - but they do the job. The chew's consistency is just right for a dental bone. I give one to each dog after their evening meal, and afterwards there is no food residue left on their teeth.
Dental bones aren't the kind of treats that I use frequently or for training. I give 1 per day to help with oral hygiene. Based on that use of this product I have yet to find anything that compete with Greenies. |
11,346 | Yes, they are good. However, they are absolutely inundated with the flavoring stuff, which is initially satisfying then becomes "too much". And certainly isn't good for the waistline or general nutritional issues.
AND the package can't be opened without a sharp implement. I couldn't pull it apart at the top as I am used to doing. I don't normally carry a knife or scissors and don't have rodent teeth. Well, I was hungry and was able to rip the bag using my car key. Even then, the bag was *wow* thick and tough.
On the package it says these are "Krinkle Cut" chips. Turns out that means the corrugated kind, not what I wanted. I don't eat ripple/ridged style chips any more because they take the skin off the roof of my mouth. So this information is important.
These are good but so are other brands with which I don't have these problems. |
11,347 | This pearls were exactly what I was looking for and made delicious tapioca pudding. My only complaint is that you have to order so many boxes. What am I going to do with all that tapioca?? Two or three would've lasted me a long time. |
11,348 | You can't beat these natural treats. My dogs love them and they align well with their raw diet. Great value ordering on Amazon too, sell for $12 more at my local pet store. |
11,349 | My cat loves Greenies!!!! Great being able to order online as I live in a very small town and have to drive 35 miles to a pet store to be able to purchase them.
Thank you |
11,350 | About half this box of toffee had such a burnt flavor it had to be thrown out. Very disappointing. I cannot recommend this product. |
11,351 | This cookie was flacid, soggy and dismal. It tasted like dough, was overly sweet and lacked the choc depth "indulgence" normally implies |
11,352 | My daughter and son in law LOVE this coffee. I'm not a flavored coffee drinker and they are. She now says it is her favorite coffee. |
11,353 | I expected these to be crunchy. They were chewy, tough, salty and fishing. I was very dissapointed. Gross, would never buy again. |
11,354 | I bought a poper from Discount Tommy a few years back, and have ordered and used there popcorn since. It pops easily and completely every time. I prefer the premixed packaging as it's already measured and ready to go. Also makes storage much easier. |
11,355 | My dogs love the taste of it. my worry is the next day one of them vomit the entire food he just ate plus the one from the previous day. I have to said I did not gradually change to this food, so maybe that is the reason. but I notice lots of urine more than normal. I just don't feel comfortable feeding this food to my dogs. |
11,356 | This is very tasty and special olive oil. It is so rich, delicious and luxurious. We use lots of olive oil in our house, and this is truly the best we've tasted! |
11,357 | I ORDERED KETTLE CHIPS IN THE FOLLOWING FLAVVORS
SALT & FRESH GROUND PEPPER
TUSCAN 3 CHEESE
N.Y. CHEDDAR AND HERS
THEY ALL TASTED THE SAME TO ME. IF THERE IS A VARIETY PACK SUGGEST U ORDER BEFORE ORDERING LARGE SIZE.
I WISH I COULD RETURN THE UNOPENED BAGS. |
11,358 | This flavor is very hard to find in the stores around here. Either they don't carry it or it is always sold out. The price is less than I can buy it for when I do find it by about 25%. The fresh berry flavor in these has me buying them several times a year. You won't get a single bite from first to last that isn't loaded with berries. Just add water, mix lightly, put into your muffin tins or papers and bake. They even smell like fresh berries when they are baking... I don't buy any other flavor or brand since the first time I tried these. |
11,359 | These cups are simply little plastic container with coffee grounds...no filtration AT ALL. Grounds leak out into coffee cup. Terrible! It almost seems like these are defective they are so bad. One customer posted the picture of a practically empty cup after brewing next to an actual K-cup full of coffee grounds...yeah, because when you use thse all the coffee grounds end up in your cup. DO NOT BUY! |
11,360 | We bought a large popcorn machine for our children and our guests and it's a hit!! Everyone loves it. It's just like being at a movie and it's super easy to use. |
11,361 | I bought this because it sounded like a less-refined sugar (such as Rapadura, which is granular rather than crystalline). I would have given this one star except I see, looking at the description, that it does say on the product page that the ingredients are "Cane sugar crystals and food grade carnauba wax". Had I noticed this ahead of time I wouldn't have ordered it - food grade carnauba wax?? YUM!!! And I don't think there's any way to get crystals from sugar cane other than by refining it the same way white cane table sugar is refined, and then adding molasses back in.
As far as the flavor and texture, which previous reviewers found so remarkable - to me it tastes exactly like dark brown sugar from the supermarket, and has a similar texture, but with a burned-molasses aftertaste that stayed with me for hours, even after I ate an apple to try and get rid of it - that's the "strong,lingering flavor" that the description mentions, I guess. Actually, when you think about it, that's what sugar cane grown in volcanic ash WOULD taste like. Also I got the same "cattle prod to the brain" - type jolt from this stuff that I used to get from refined white or brown sugar, which I no longer eat.
So since I'm going to immediately give this away to friends who still eat refined sugar, I can't speak to how this would work in barbecue or brownies or any of the other things mentioned in the other reviews. I was going to try some of it in coffee, just to be fair, and to see if the aftertaste problem was less intense that way, however I can't re-open the jar! It was almost impossible to open the first time - I had to bang the edge of the lid on the countertop multiple times and then run hot water over it - but I thought it would be easier to open after that, since I didn't tighten the lid down hard when I replaced it. I don't usually have problems opening jars, so I don't know, maybe it's made this way on purpose to keep the contents fresh or something. If I were going to keep this for myself, the only way I could get it open at this point would be to slice into the plastic container with a serrated bread knife - not the safest way to open a jar.
The two 2.8 lb. jars were $28.00, I think, and thank Heaven I got free shipping, however I could have gotten an equivalent amount of dark brown sugar at the grocery store for less than $10.00, if that's what I had wanted. So I hate to go against some of the other really quite lyrical reviews of this stuff, but to me it's just incredibly expensive, funny-tasting, impossible-to-open brown sugar. |
11,362 | I use it to help jump start my weight loss regime. I sometimes flip flop up and down 8 pounds when I am not careful and i drink this tea for about 3 days and I shed it all. It is NOT a gentle cleanser though it will have your stomach turning and yearning but in 8-12 hours it does the cleansing job and it usually only does it for the first go round.
I would say go for it, if you need to get a jump start but DONT expect a good tasting tea very bitter. I DONT sweeten at all, I break the bags so i can swallow some of the bark in the tea as well. Good Luck |
11,363 | So glad I read the reviews and ordered this maple syrup. It is very good and the price is right too! A winner you should take a chance on. |
11,364 | I have tased a variety of molasses brands over the years , and Brer Rabit is definitely the best . I use it to make BBQ sauce and baked beans. For gingerbread cookies and other dishes, I prefer the Dark version of Brer Rabbit , rather then the Bladkstrap . My dog also loves Blackstrap Brer Rabbit molasses. The only way she will eat dry dog food is if it has 1 tablespoon of molasses stirred in. |
11,365 | I didn't realize when I bought these that they were made in China. In fact, I fed them to my dogs until someone looking at the package pointed it out to me. I'm a little leery of buying dogs treats from China and other developing countries since the melamime incident. Who knows what oversight there is on the production. So, now I order *only* Snook's sweet potatoe dog chews from Healthy Happy Pet (through Amazon). These are organic dried sweet potato chunks made in the US and my dogs **love them**. I also get Sam's Yams but the Snook's are nice and crunchy. I got a small bag for my sister's Shih Tzus and they loved them as well. If Dogswell would find a place in the US to make their products, I'd be willing to buy. But as long as they are made in China-- won't do it anymore. |
11,366 | My grandmother had a jar of these out at all times. When I came over, the only thing left was a graveyard of aluminum wrappers and the trademark paper.
This is a wonderful and affordable way to get the Hershey chocolate experience. If you enjoy them in warm(not hot) climates, they are great. In hot climates, they lose there integrity and become a bit too soft. In cold climates, they become the dreaded Hershey's "plastic", a dark looking thing which is not very rich or creamy. Hershey's was always an affordable brand and never meant to be premium. If you long for the Swiss chocolate experience, then there are better choices.
For dieters, these MIGHT be perfect; put them in a jar and take one at a time, a few per day. For some of us(read: all of us), that's a tall order. |
11,367 | We go through an unhealthy level of this stuff in my house so Amazon carrying it in 12pks at a price cheaper than going to the store is perfect. If you like spicy food the hot version is just right for you. Now, everyone I talk to doesn't seem to grasp how versatile Rotel is and thinks it's just for mixing with Velveeta and making queso dip with. How very wrong they are! (although that is a great use of it as well) Here's some of the things we regularly do with Rotel:
~Add to a grilled chicken/turkey/chicken/etc and cheese quesadilla
~Add to spaghetti sauce
~Add a can to taco meat as the liquid portion when you add the seasoning
~Use to make salsa
~I use a can (along with broth) as part of the soup base when I make spicy chicken noodle soup
~Use to make spicy tomato baked mac and cheese (or simply add some to a box of Kraft, it's delicious)
Really anything you'd normally enjoy tomatoes with Rotel works great for and adds a spicy kick. |
11,368 | I love these for so many reasons...
Of course, they're awesome for fresh breath AND they're sugar free.
They also, at least to me, make an amazing cough suppressant when I'm having an allergy attack (dust, pollen...). Way better (and faster) than popping an antihistamine. I also tend to get a bit queasy on the winding roads in our area. Popping a few of these somehow alleviate that feeling. Oddly, the large sugary Altoids don't seem to pack enough punch to accomplish either of these. There's just something about the little ones.
The smaller size of the mints and their tins are also much easier to carry along than original Altoids. They take up very little room in my purse and nightstand. I'll wait on a box of these from Amazon before I'd buy a few tins of the original Altoids now! |
11,369 | This bread is delicious and very easy to fix with our bread machine. Living with out bread is no longer necessary with this product. |
11,370 | The tea has a smooth pleasant taste. I leave the bag in the cup until the last drop. No matter how long the timespan, it never tastes bitter. Also, I leave the paper holder attached so its weight stops the tag from flying into the tea.
I used to be able to buy this in local grocery stores but they all stopped carrying it. It was cheaper in the stores and it would be nice if the price online was $1 cheaper per box. |
11,371 | This is the worst tasting fiber cereal I have ever eaten! It was so bad I would have sent it back, but I am living in the middle of the South Pacific and it would have been too costly. It tasted like unpoped popcorn kernels, gets stuck in back of throat, and has an after taste. Yuk! I feed it to the chickens. Don't waste your money on this. |
11,372 | Its a nice wind down at night. Taste takes some getting used to but not too bad. Sweeten with a litte honey. The health benefits make up for the taste. The product arrived as reported. |
11,373 | Nestle Hot Cocoa Mix has always been a part of my family as a child and into adulthood. This stuff is chocolaty and tastes great when sipped on a cool Winter night with family and friends, next to a blazing fireplace while reminiscing about the years gone by. If only those years could be relived.. there would be time to enjoy more of this memorable drink.
Please rate this review if you found it helpful. |
11,374 | This is one of the best mustards I have ever tasted. Found this in 2003 and have been ordering it online ever since. This is a sweet hot mustard and we use it in and on everything. |
11,375 | I absolutely adore Zuke's as a company - & my dog does, too! This is the only treat she's even been actively excited about as soon as I touch the bag. Their small size has made them an invaluable training reward, and even the smell is good! 5 paws up! |
11,376 | These cereal bars are fantastic. All of their verities have great fruit flavors and not to mention NO added sugar (fruit juice sweetened and plenty sweet enough). Perfect for a mid-morning snack or otherwise. |
11,377 | Okay, I admit it.
I was sucked in my the most adorable, romantic commercials for a cat food product that I have
ever seen. I vowed to buy at least some Fancy Feast each week just to show my support for that commercial! LOL
The cats love the wet food. It is very expensive, and from what I have read on the labels, you are
definitely paying for the IMAGE, not the quality or quantity of the food. (The cans are only 3 ounces
compared with 5.5 ounces in the other can styles.) I still get it, and they love the ones with cheese the most.
So, I thought we'd give the dry food a try. I had my husband grab a bag when he was at the grocery store.
How bad could it be, right? Same company, same "gourmet" promotion on the foods, so surely it has great stuff
in it, right? Well, shocker - NOPE.
Fancy Feast is made by the Purina company in St Louis, MO. They are the same ones who make the generic dog chow,
cat chow, rabbit chow, ________ (fill in the blank) critter chow. They are all full of fillers that animals don't need,
because it is cheap to manufacture. Why I thought this might be different, I do not know.
First off, food mfgs have found the kitty equivalent of addictive MSG, and load their foods with it.
This one is no different. Note that BOTH our cats went crazy over this food, inhaling it out of my hand
before I could even get more out of the package. Fancy Feast knows how to make things that smell/taste good to cats.
However, most food mfgs know how to make things that TASTE good - how they got there, well, you might not really want to know.
Here's the ingredients list (which is in the order of the QUANTITY of the item) for this "gourmet" cat chow - bear with me, this is
a really long list of iffy ingredients, artificial junk and food coloring):
Brewers Rice
Poultry By Product Meal
CORN GLUTEN meal
Animal fat preserved with mixed tocopherols
Ground Yellow Corn
Soybean Meal
Animal Liver Flavor
Chicken
Turkey
Phosphoric Acid
Calcium Carbonate (in case they get indigestion?! This is what's in Tums!)
Salt
Natural & Artificial Flavors
Potassium Chloride
Dried Yeast
Choline Chloride
Added Color, Red 40, Yellow 5, Blue 2 and "other colors" (Why?!?)
Taurine
Zinc Sulfate
Ferrous Sulfate
Vitamin E Supplement
Niacin
Manganese Sulfate
Vitamin A Supplement
Calcium Pantothenate
Thiamine Mononitrate
Copper Sulfate
Riboflavin Supplement
Vitamin B12 Supplement
Pyridoxine
Hydrochloride
Folic Acid
Vitamin D3 Supplement
Calcium Iodate
Biotin
Menadione Sodium Bisulfite Complex (a form of Vit K)
Sodium Selenite.
Sounds yummy, huh?
The meat is way down the list, after all the corn, soybean and rice fillers and glutens.
How on earth does cat food need artificial food dyes? The cats won't care.
There are many known reactions to food dyes in people - I am sure our pets don't need it either.
Was the food too yellow with all the grain meal and gluten, or too white from all the fats?
So, the cats love it. I will now consider this the equivalent of a bag of potato chips for humans -
okay some times, but NOT all the time. I'll have to watch our oldest cat. He gets super itchy with wheat
grain or gluten in foods, so I'll watch for reactions to the corn.
Cats are carnivorous, and do not eat grains in the wild. However, especially with the manufacturing plant
smack dab in farming country, they can apparently get all kinds of leftover grains cheap?
If you buy this for your kitties, just know that you are buying the IMAGE more than a quality food.
This is not really different than the super cheap pet food.
Overall, I was really disappointed to read that ingredients list, when they could do SO much better for our pets.
We'll use this as their treats, rather than their main dry food. We'll stick with our Blue Buffalo for that, which is
grain free and actually has meat for the first ingredient!
Fancy Feast - marketing genius, but sloppy on the nutrition. |
11,378 | This coffee is bold...but not too bold...it is my very favorite...If you like a strong coffee that is not bitter...you will enjoy this coffee... |
11,379 | The pods do not fit the Senseo machines unless you use a double holder. Even then the coffee is like tinted water. The flavor would be fine if it were stronger. I also had several pods that were broken when I opened the individual bags. |
11,380 | I am wary of celebrity chef endorsements for coffee, but I was wrong here...this coffee is BOLD, DARK and beautiful.....one of the best K-cup's of coffee I have tasted so far. Excellent balance with cream, this along with Green Mountain dark magic are my two favorite K-cups! |
11,381 | If you love peanut butter but don't like all the calories, PB2 is for you! Easy to mix, just add water. And it's an excellent source of protein. |
11,382 | I used this tea for the first time today and it is like a fine powder. I have an infuser that has very very fine holes and it still went right through them and into my cup. I love the Twinings tea but this is not useable and I will have to throw it out. |
11,383 | This is the most wonderful chip in the world. I love them. They are very crunchy and have a nice jalapeno taste. |
11,384 | This cereal is very yummy, however, for those prone to cavities or have deep groves in your teeth, beware. This easily sticks to your teeth and requires spending time with floss and toothpicks to remove. Simply brushing does not do. It also has a lot of artificial dyes and flavoring. The dyes will make your bowel movements green for several days (no kidding, this happened to me and my husband). With that said, I till keep eating this cereal at a minimum. I've also been having some stomach problems, not sure if it's related to this. |
11,385 | This has proved to be a very pleasant coffee. The vanilla flavoring is not overpowering, just a nice taste that makes this kind of a special coffee, very good for sharing with guests. I picked it up just before the holiday season and it has made a very nice holiday treat (especially good with cookies.) But, I can see buying it year round as it is a very good morning coffee as well. If anything the bag went a little too fast. |
11,386 | I was fascinated by the description of these new K-cups and decided to take a chance after reading the reviews. I am very pleasantly surprised at the wonderfully flavorful coffee that they made! I am very particular about my coffee and like only very dark flavorful roasts. I had not really been pleased with any of the K-cups--some of course were better than others--and had pretty much settled on Starbucks Verona as my favorite, but these are better! (And--MUCH less expensive!)
My Keurig Platinum is at my beach home (only weekend usage and not every weekend at that!) so I was a bit concerned about this style K-cup staying fresh once the individual bag was opened. A bag ended up staying very fresh for several weeks--of course I resealed the bag with a couple of clips as well as I could--so this is no longer a concern of mine. I will be a regular consumer! |
11,387 | This was my first time purchasing the Garvey's Organic Pancake mix and it was great. Supporting local companies is a great thing and the size of the package was just right for my family. Not one pancake was left over from breakfast, outstanding product. |
11,388 | It adds a smoky flavor to food but doesn't taste like bacon to me. The baconaise is good but same thing, it doesn't taste like bacon just smoky. All in all its a good product but i was disappointed that it didn't taste any more like bacon than it did after all I had read and heard about it. |
11,389 | My dog loves interactive toys and it seems its the only way I can get her to actually eat her meals. I bought this thing (mini size) with high hopes but once I got it in its done nothing but disappoint. First of all I think I may have a defective product since there is absolutely no way I can get the middle cylinder out. I looked this up online and it seems numerous others are having this problem. Therefore strike 1: can't clean the thing which I can see getting gunky real fast. Fine I can't remove the cylinder, maybe I'll just throw some small treats in there and see how she likes it. Put it on the hardwood floor and BAM BAM BAM BAM it goes. Try constantly throwing a slightly heavy plastic object at your furniture, walls, and floor...my neighbors are going to freak! Strike 2: SO LOUD. Ok, maybe its because I can't take the cylinder out/defective but after five minutes of banging not a single treat has fell out and my dog is getting frustrated. Fine its the human's turn...okay I'm shaking, I'm turning, I'm shaking, I'm turning, now I'm peeking through the hole and shaking and shaking and shaking....NOTHING. Seriously? I had to maneuver the cube (the thing is set at minimum difficulty) and could only get one of the treats out after doing some pretty delicate turns and rotations. Hows my dog suppose to do that with her nose and mouth? Strike 3: treat dispenser that doesn't dispense treats. Maybe the thing keeping my cylinder from coming out is keeping treats from coming out as well. Doesn't matter...I'm over it. |
11,390 | I mix 2 tablespoons a day and smear it on rye toast!.....YUM....just like when I was a kid but this time without all the fat and calories! |
11,391 | Have only had the Keurig for about 2 months. The Timothy's Italian blend was in one of the sample packs. One cup, and I was hooked. Usually bold & extra bold are deliciously strong but also have a bite to them that ruins the taste of the coffee for me. It tastes like the brewed coffee was burned. The Italian blend has the perfect combo of strength & fullness, without the bite. It is sooo smooth. I know that everyone has their own taste in coffee, but to my mind this is "kewl beans" (don't know what that means, but heard it somewhere and it sounds right, lol) Absolutely delicious. |
11,392 | I enjoy hempseed, primarily I sprinkle it over my salads to add a nutty and nutritious component.
I like buying this in bulk because it saves money over the expensive 1 pound or half-pound bags I can get at the store.
My complaint about this product is that you never know what you'll get. Sometimes it's fairly free of hulls (seed coats) and sometime it's just full of them
And they're hard to deal with - very hard pieces of shells that interfere with the enjoyment of whatever you are eating.
I guess you could spend time separating the pieces out, but that is a labor-intensive process and at that point it becomes more economical (time is money) to buy the 1 pound or half-pound bag at the store from a company that pays more attention to what they are packaging.
I kust got a new shipment and it is absolutely full of seed coat fragments.
Grrrrr.... |
11,393 | The Soda Club machine is great. We enjoy all the flavors (excluding the mango one). I read the other reviews, my family doesn't understand what after taste they are refering too. I have been drinking Pepsi all my life. It is finally great to have soda without aspartame and corn syrup! Plus, I am saving lugging 2-liter jugs from the grocery store and have cut down on the amount of garbage I throw out. There are a lot of flavors at [...]. Yeah for Soda Club!! |
11,394 | I found this Kaniwa interesting (and hard to find). It cooked easily, but is very small-- about the size of a poppy seed. So, I used it to thicken up a lentil dahl. It would be hard to eat Kaniwa by itself, but is useful in soups and the like. |
11,395 | So we've purchased this product (not from Amazon)for our Scottish Terrier and he ate them with gusto. But he has gotten violently ill several times after eating them. regrettably as much as he loves them we're not going to give them to him anymore. He was very ill and I've never seen a dog throw up like these made him. Usually our dog throws up whatever makes him sick and moves on none the less for wear... These however had him shaking and projectile vomiting, and whimpering and crying in pain.. we were very scared for him... As a matter of fact he just got sick and that's what made us write this... we are watching over him right now as he pulls himself together.
In any event, unfairly or not, anything foodstuff made in China is suspect and these are made in china . We are not going to purchase these again and would recommend strongly that no one else purchase these or any other treat/food made in China until quality control is MUCH improved...
Thanx... |
11,396 | I have had Community Coffee before, never this blend. Dark, rich, not bitter. Excellent cup of coffee. Has become my favorite. |
11,397 | I received very good service from Amazon and fast shipping through Prime when receiving this product. However, I was not as satisfied with the syrup itself. In comparison to Torani's other sugar free syrup's, I would say that the brown sugar cinnamon variety is lacking. Whenever I use it in hot cocoa or coffee I get this strange sour and slightly bitter aftertaste. I have tried using less of the syrup to avoid this, but I then find that I can't taste the brown sugar cinnamon flavor at all. I was a bigger fan of the hazelnut sugar free syrup, which is probably what I will go back to after I finish off my supply of this flavor. |
11,398 | I was actually pretty disappointed with these, which really is inconvenient now that I have an entire case of them! A bunch of them were all but broken when I opened the boxes, and my kids aren't big fans of them either. They are picky, but pizza or anything even remotely pizza usually never fails... no such luck here. That and plan on having to bake them to warm them (which takes 25 plus minutes), otherwise they come out a bit soggy from the microwave... |
11,399 | My daughter will start school this fall and i was concerned about lunches and fruit-to-go choices. We've bought several different fruit pouches at a local organic store and she and I loved these the most. It it not overly sweet (and a strawberry variation as well), tastes really good. She can easily eat 2 of these every day.
I really like the fact that it has no sugar and color added + it is organic. Just fruit puree.
I, personally, don't like banana variation, but it's just because of my own personal preferences (i like fresh bananas more than cooked), other than that, my daughter approved all of flavors to 10 stars. |
