Quick and easy to make iced tea. Tastes great! I would recommend this product and I plan of buying again.
113,101
Tasted just like I remembered, when my mother made it at my childhood farm home. This jelly was just delicious although, due to shipping cost, rather pricey. I received this very quickly after placing the order with Amazon.

Please ignore the one-star comments, if you check the bag the main ingredient IS in fact whole grain brown rice and the second is rice flower. With anything that is gluten free you have to add another "binder" which is where the corn flour comes in. For someone who has celiac disease and cannot have Sunchips, because they contain wheat (a key binder to any chip, cookie or cereal) this is an excellent product. My spouse and I buy these a lot because they are gluten free and absolutely delicious!

My name is Gary, and I am using my son's account because haven't figured out my own Amazon account yet - I buy this product locally, and wanted to have a way to share my experience with others my age who might be like me across the US. I I started drinking this water about a year ago. I will turn 75 years old in August. This water makes me feel great - Try it, you will be surprised at how much better you feel.

BOB'S VS. BISQUICK: I went to Bob's Buckwheat Pancake Mix (have now gone through two 4-packs!) from using Bisquick, mainly to get away from the refined flour and get some better, whole grain nutrition. I'm happy I did, and wouldn't go back; it's my body I'm feeding. The negative is, and some others have noted it here, is that this mix doesn't produce particularly light, fluffy pancakes. They're good, but not super light like Bisquick did. Maybe if you beat and fold in egg whites (but I don't eat eggs). That's not to say they don't rise, or they aren't good, and great tasting. BOB'S VS MADE FROM SCRATCH No comparison. I bought organic bulk buckwheat flour (which you can get pretty inexpensive in a 25lb bag if you're a nut) from Amazon; search for "Great River Organic Milling." I then made my own egg-less, butter-less, milk-less version from something I found on the web: 3/4c Buckwheat flour 3/4c Whole wheat flour 1.5 tsp Baking Powder 1/2 tsp Baking Soda (I think you could switch this to Baking Powder, but this came from the recepie) 1/4 tsp salt 1 tbsp (that's tablespoon) Agave Nectar (you can totally skip this; it's a low glycemic index sweetener) 2 tbsp olive oil (you could use melted coconut oil if you're worried about the heat on the olive oil). I wouldn't skip the oil though; buckwheat can be a bit sticky on the pan, even a no-stick. water to consistency (I'm assuming you've made pancakes before; I never measure my water) *Cook IMMEDIATELY after adding the water. Do not let it sit around for 20 min. *Cook on lightly oiled no-stick pan; I use cast iron and it's great, but you do need a little oil as Buckwheat is a bit sticky. Good lord, they were ridiculously light and fluffy. Amazingly so. Blew Bob's out of the water. I haven't tried 100% buckwheat flour yet, but after doing some more reading, it appears that would work fine as well. I'm not sure why Bob's mix produces pancakes that are so heavy in comparison, because it's basically the same ingredients. Perhaps it's something about a fresh mix. Maybe the baking powder/soda goes flat???? I have no idea, but I'm doing all mine from scratch from now on. No question about it. SUMMARY: If you really want to just open a bag and use it, I think Bob's is great stuff, and good for you. If you want super fluffy pancakes, make your own; they're much better, and that way you can also go all-Buckwheat.

The price of this cat food is far above the value. Fifty percent ot my cats did not like it.

If you are looking for freeze-dried sweet corn, you won't find it here. This item is basically half-popped corn, coated in oil. It is not sweet. It tastes pretty much like popcorn. Though advertised as low in fat, it contains 7 grams of fat per 28 gram serving. I'm not even sure that this product has been freeze-dried, like other Crunchies products. For freeze-dried sweet corn, I'd suggest Just Corn. Admittedly, I haven't tried any other brands. However, it is leagues better than these Crunchies, which I am now stuck with 12 packs of.

Barry's tea has a wonderful rich but not bitter flavor. I drink it every morning.
113,108
These guys rock! Nice refreshing drink with a little extra kick to help you wind down.I will reorder! Thanks again Mood and Mind!

This purchase disappointed me for two reasons. First, I had never before tried the redskin version of Feridies Virginia peanuts, and I found them to be more like regular peanuts (like Planters) in both size and texture than the large, super-crunchy Virginia variety I was expecting. Second, the peanuts in the cans were a bit on the stale side. Unfortunately, this is a frequent problem with nut cans that are sealed with those flimsy foil tops, but this was the first time I had encountered any degree of staleness with Feridies products. When I ordered these redskin peanuts, I also placed a separate order for the regular (non-redskin) Feridies Virginia peanuts, and they seemed perfectly fresh. My guess is that the cans of redskins had been languishing on the shelf for a bit too long. It would have been helpful to find some kind of "sell by" label on the cans, as the Virginia peanuts from Harry & David always have.

I love this catfood because..it is All natural. (Chicken is the FIRST Ingredient listed on the can..Much lower cost than other natural canned catfoods.. I checked it out..like -40 cents a can less! Now that is a savings.. I buy it here at Amazon..good price and Most of the time it is Free Shipping! Lots of good healthy ingredients. My two cats love the INDOOR Formula..and they are Picky eaters. I can HIGHLY Recommend this product.
113,111
Love black olives and tapenades. Sorry that this one was rather salty and pricey. Great only with food as a condiment.

In all my years of home baking (I am now a young 67), I have not tasted gingerbread as good! The right combination of spices make these cookies mild but flavorful and delicious! They're all-natural (even the icing packet) and fun to make. The small cookie cutter included makes more than enough cookies to go around at your holiday celebration or cookie exchange. Thank you Lazy Baker!!!!
113,113
If you miss homemade snickerdoodles, look no further! They were simple enough for my 10 year old daughter to make, and they are just like the cookies I remember growing up. They only trouble is they disappear way too fast.

Thanks for sending them. The students and faculty at Davidson College in the Music Dept. will enjoy them. Bill Vinson Davidson, NC

Just tried this Pumkin Spice Coffee. Spouse said it left an after taste. I couldn't taste the Pumkin -- the only reason to buy Pumkin Spice coffee. Label says its Low Acidic -- that's a plus if the coffee was better. Bean Coffee Engineer's have some work to do on this Pumkin Blend. PROBLEM: We got use to GODAVIA, Pumkin Spice Coffee which is the VERY VERY BEST! Unfortunately it is also $$$$$ VERY Pricey.

WARNING MEMBERS~~~~ This item is NO LONGER MADE by Starbucks for Tassimo Machines. This item is now PRICED AT OVER $7.00 PER T-DISK!!!! This is a VERY SAD SITUATION, as this STARBUCKS T-Disk was my 89 Year Old Mother's favorite item for her Tassimo Coffee Maker. She tried the Nobu brand, and found it very weak and not as robust and flavorable. TASSIMO HAS BEEN DELT A FATAL BLOW BY STARBUCKS!

JR Mushrooms earned my undying devotion when they noticed I had clicked the order button twice and ordered two pounds of peppercorns. Just as I was realizing this, they emailed to ask if I REALLY wanted two pounds. Great Work! The peppercorns came quickly and are fresh and fragrant--and a lifetime supply. Since then, I ordered vanilla bean pods too. Also, good value and quickly delivered.

I personally prefer a heavier Jasmine flavor to my green tea. However, this is an excellent tea and one that I would recommend.
113,119
Ughh..... My gawd. These things taste awful. Has no flavor, no kick, barely even fizzes. It's rather terrible. A local charity drive received some of these and sent this off to some hungry kids in Cambodia and the kids sent the entire shipment back saying they rather risk drinking the cholera-laden water from the nearby stream. I cant recommend anyone drinking this unless they've previously had their taste buds burned off with sulfuric acid. In that case....bottoms up! 2 stars...one extra because it's only 99 cents at most stores for when you have no money to quench the thirst and Arizona or Brisk arent available.
113,120
this is the best tea either hot or cold. I am receiving radiation treatments for cancer of the parotid gland and have mostly lost my sense of taste however, this tea still tastes great!

Eukanuba is a well-respected name in pet foods, and it's a bit pricier than some other big brands. So when we wanted to switch our cat Caesar from Iam's and saw this on sale, I figured that I was getting quite a bargain. Oh the folly... Chicken by-product meal, Corn grits and corn meal are three of the four top ingredients. This is what the high cost buys - by-products and corn? If we wanted to continue giving him crappy ingredients then we'd have kept buying Iams and saved the cash (not to mention the fact that Caesar actually liked it)! I imagine the weight-loss claim is probably true, because my cat would eat just enough of this to get by...he hated it! We decided to change to a new brand after half a bag, phasing the new food in with the Eukanuba in growing proportions. Throughout this short period, the kibble from the other brand was always gone first. If Caesar had liked it, I probably wouldn't stick with it on principle...I don't think I should pay top-dollar for substandard ingredients. Luckily, Caesar came to that conclusion all by himself!
113,122
I bought this for my boyfriend as a Fathers day gift. He loves hot sauce so I wanted to really get him something hot! He loves it!!! He is now the prank master though! Good hot sauce!!!!!!! HE LOVES IT!!!

When you buy an item like this, you know the chances of it being great or even good are fairly slim, but you expect that it will be edible. In the case of Thai Kitchen's Pad Thai bowl, that's a hideoussly misguided expectation. The "vegetables" included are dried shavings, not even as substantive as the tiny carrot chunks you get in a Cup O' Soup; and the sauce? It's like some terrible sweet and sour sauce you'd get from McDonald's--terminally sweet, with no hint of anything I've ever tasted at even a budget-on-the-run Thai restaurant. I've never had anything so repulsive--and I once mistook chocolate syrup for gravy and served it on turkey.
113,124
This is a great black tea. I drink lots of teas and taste wise can really tell the difference between many qualities of tea. This is a good one!
113,125
I work nights and sleep during the day. This door allows my dogs to go outside and back in on their own!!! Thus, no more lost sleep letting them out! It also keeps other unwanted critters out. You would not want a skunk or raccoon following them back in, trust me on this!!! Ive been there!!! The door is a bit pricey but in my opinion well worth the price! You wont be disappointed............
113,126
This is not just your average Lipton Tea, they have rolled it into tiny balls, they called it gunpowder. They flavor is better to me than the average Lipton at the local store. The price is good, and quality is too!
113,127
I've tasted this coffee at a friend's house and it is fabulous. The $7.95 shipping fee that New Lines Sales charges for an $8.00 can of Lavazza in Blu is outrageous and ridiculous!
113,128
I like roast without a burnt flavor yet I like a bold cup of coffe. This has a great balance between the two. It is a full rich blend with only a very mild hint of a very mild burnt aftertaste. Hardly noticeable at all but still there in the background. However, it does not detract from the full rich flavor of this cup. If you are looking for a milder cup of coffee I would suggest Timothy's World Coffee Kona Blend K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 50)

The pumpkin I ordered came well wrapped, fresh and was delivered on time. A few of the cans were bent/dropped/mashed, but overall the condition of the package was good.

My small yorkie licked it, but besides that wouldn't touch it. He disliked the smell. He doesn't seem to like hard dog chews. In the case some helpful kind soul passes this review, can anyone recommend a healthy chew for small dogs that do not contain fillers (wheat, etc.) that is soft?
113,131
Product arrived promptly and was absolutely fresh. The quantity (60-70 leaves) was correct. Very pleased with the value.
113,132
I was looking for a frozen beverage base to thicken and help flavor my ice-blended espresso drinks, and Frozen Explosion fits the bill. It enhances coffee flavor so well that I even use it in hot coffee as a creamer/sweetener instead of milk and sugar.

I was quite happy to give this EBOOST Acai Pomegranate product a try - after all, I love pomegranates and really like acai...I couldn't taste either of those flavors in this drink. I added a pouch to 8 fluid ounces of water - it immediately begin to fizz and ended up making a tiny bit of a pink mess (this powder foams like crazy when added to water): strike one. Then I gave it a bit of time to settle before giving it a try: wow, I was very taken aback. The flavor is very mineral-y, both from first taste all the way thru to after-taste, where it gets even worse, way worse: strike two. I took a look at the package quite a bit closer then, to see if all this was worth it, at least hoping to find some type of super-positive health boost worth all the foaming, and mineral (yucky) flavor: there wasn't anything. Strike Three. I agree that these minerals and vitamins are good & necessary, but I wouldn't use this particular method to get them: there are much better products on the market to take in things this powder touts like zinc. And that's that... And to end, the product is pink. Very pink. Now, I like pink, but I was taken aback by this: my main complaint is this doesn't taste like acai or pomegranante at all, so it just doesn't live up to its name.
113,134
I love sour power belts the best. These are great because they are individually wrapped so even in our humid climate they won't stick together and plus is makes it easier to share.... not too much though ;)

I had tried every store and warehouse clubs in our area and could not find the Smoked Sweet Paprika. I gave homemade cookbooks to friends for Christmas and one of my recipes called for 1 cup of Smoked Sweet Paprika. Everyone was waiting for the book because of the BBQ ribs recipe and it called for the spice. For 4 months I looked for it. The sauce requires a cup of smoked sweet paprika. I was so thankful that I could give not only the cook book but the valuable spice that went with it as part of their Christmas Present. With instructions where to buy the spice the next time they needed it... SOOO Thankyou Amazon for helping me find that perfect last minute gift for my friends.... ,

Watch out, these brownies will make you gain weight. The fudgy ones are especially great. Easy to make.

I kept reading recommendations for Valrhona Cocoa Powder and what a difference it makes in baking. Frankly, I thought the recommenders were embellishing a bit....until I tried it. I have only found it online and at gourmet food stores and since using it in baking recipes, I will NEVER use any other cocoa powder. It is truly the difference between a good product and an outstanding one. I ran out of Valrhona in the middle of making cupcakes for a wedding shower and rushed back to the gourmet shop for some more, they were out of it and sold me a "comparable Dutch processed" cocoa. It was NOT even close to being a good substitute for the Valrhona. I will not run out of it again. If you haven't tried it, do yourself a favor and get some!

I love this gluten. I've used other, more expensive gluten & this is just as good, if not better. I use it all the time in my baking. I love it. Connie
113,139
Good soda substitute for good health. Gets boring. Need to change it up in terms of flavor. Get different ones. Best when cold.

I have ordered other Walden Farms zero calorie products but the consistancy is just wrong. But, this salad dressing is just perfect. I use the ranch and the thousand island. It's definitely worth it. I'm Diabetic and having a salad is hard because salad dressing has so many calories. But this product cuts that down completely! Very tasty - a bit of a kick.
113,141
While I agree with the other reviewers such as Van Halen Fan & Pete, I disagree with 1 part. Honestly, Pepsi DOES have more sweetness as well as tasting a bit more bland than Coke, but other than that, I don't see THAT much more difference than the seperate tastes in the Regular kinds. Anyway, any of the Coke flavors are defeniatly better than any type of Pepsi. Sure, I don't mind any Pepsi AT ALL, but Coke in every way Pawnz Pepsi with the stronger taste & caffeine. Sorry for another band comparison, but, Coke is like Black Sabbath, 2 things that make me strong & proud to be me everyday, while Pepsi is like Green Day, 2 things I fairly like, but too Suguary & Watery for me. :P Anyway, I reccomend everybody to buy a 6-pack of Coke every week at their local Grocery shop! Smell y'all later! >_>

This is not a Gluten Free product. Oats, unless specified, contain gluten. For those in a GF/CF diet, I would not recommend this bar.
113,143
These snacks are totally tasty and satifying! I take them to my beach volleyball tournaments and EVERYONE wants them. I've started giving them to my friends as birthday gifts....they love them so much. I have serious trouble finding these in my local stores, so I turned to Amazon to find them and VOILA!! I bought a case of them to last me a while! The pumpernickel is a great pretzel flavor and the jalepeno cheddar adds a nice light spicy touch. I eat them like Oreos; I split it open and lick the cheddar in the middle, then eat the pretzel ends!! :) Kinda fun to eat! Trust me when I say they are delicious. Oh....and don't just buy one bag, you will definitely want more!!! Enjoy!!
113,144
this company makes the absolute best sea vegetables. and the prices when you buy in bulk can't be beat! just about half the price than in the local health food store. i go through bags of these all year round, because i eat a lot of soup. fantastic! they add flavor and not really any fishiness. and there is a lot in each bag, so you can make many batches. they're so good for you and you can barely taste them (i use an immersion blender so they get incorporated, for skeptical family members who wouldn't normally eat seaweed)-why not get a whole bunch?
113,145
Ignore the previous posts about poor quality, ie dried up, etc., they just aren't familiar with coconut oil. It is the best for popcorn hands down. This is the best price you will find for coconut oil...I highly recommend!!!
113,146
Very good spaghetti, however, must be eaten as soon as it is cooked, otherwise will stick together. It is healthy and nutritious. We like it and enjoy very much.
113,147
Krusteaz Pumpkin Pie Bars are out of this world! We first made them for a big party that we hosted and the guests just went nuts over them. They were all gone before we even got a chance to try them, so we had to make more to find out what all the hoopla was about! Well, the guests were right and they are absolutely amazing!!! We buy 5 boxes at a time now, usually from Amazon since the local stores only stock it seasonally, but it is definitely worth purchasing. They are very easy to make and we love them right out of the oven, but I think that they are even more amazing after being in the refrigerator overnight. If you love pumpkin, you must give this a try!

My first bowl arrived in March, well packaged and I was very excited to open the box. To my surprise, the DoMatcha Handcrafted Bowl was smaller than I had anticipated. I have seen others that hold more, making the whisking process easier, which avoids spills over the side. It would have been helpful to have the capacity available, before ordering.The bowl is very pretty and does look exactly like the photo. My only concern was with the lack of smooth glazing around the top edge of the bowl. Running my finger along the edge gave me concern about drinking from a surface that appeared sharp to the touch. I checked to see if the bowl could be returned. Unfortunately it could not, so I called Amazon customer service for assistance. They confirmed that the bowl could not be returned however they would send me another as a replacement. The second bowl arrived promptly within the week. I am very sad to report that the second bowl is exactly the same as the first. Same feel to the top edge of the bowl. This makes me wonder how mass produced these bowls are. So now I have two bowls which I will most likely use for mixing and not drinking. I guess I expected better quality for the price of this bowl.

The great Northern popcorn popper we use these in seems to be used almost daily, since we have 8 and 10 year old girls, and their friends, who are always wanting a snack (specially after school). Although we also use the separate corn and oil also, the packs are just as good tasting, and sometimes a little handier when in a hurry, or out of the separate ingredients. The popcorn is very good either way.
113,150
It makes a good meal with only chicken and butter. You can get a better dish if you add vegetables and some coconut milk.
113,151
Too hard- my cats are not happy with them @ all- they are like shoe leather. They loved the chicken treats, but these are not comparable.
113,152
Length:: 0:33 Mins I ordered two cases of this. The one I got in a gift basket, was just great. It was cream style corn, nice and creamy. But, the ones I ordered directly from Glory, turned out to be just plain old whole corn!! I would bother ordering this. Watch the video, you be the judge. I sent them an email, wait to see what happens?

These Idahoan "instant" mashed potatoes are a godsend. Quick: name some other food that can be ready in less than 5 minutes and is "real", even though cooked from a mix? These are real, dehydrated potatoes, and they're unbelievably fast to prepare. Just put 2 cups of tap water into a microwaveable bowl, add the contents of one of these bags, stir a little to mix and to get rid of the biggest lumps, and microwave for 3 1/2 minutes. That's it. When finished, just stir and enjoy. Don't think fast means yucky. They taste delicious, and you can fool people into thinking they're leftover homemade or leftovers from a restaurant. Incredibly good to have on hand. My favorite is the Idahoan Mashed Potatoes, Four Cheese, 4-Ounce Package (Pack of 12) -- out of this world! I tried this Loaded version because the Four Cheese were temporarily unavailable from Amazon itself, and a third party supplier was overcharging by about 400%. The Loaded are pretty good -- not quite as good as the Four Cheese, but still great to have in the pantry. When you come home late from work, confront the fridge with exhaustion, and think longingly of your favorite ethnic hangout or even take-out, to combat that urge you need resources at hand! We keep thin ham steaks in the freezer and turkey kielbasa in the fridge for just such occasions, both of which are fully-cooked and just require searing/heating in just minutes. These wonderful mashed potatoes can be ready even before those are and will complement any entree. Add a fresh steamed vegetable and/or simple salad (or even, if you're really wiped out, high-quality canned or frozen vegetables -- try keeping a can of cut green beans, drained, in the fridge marinating with some fresh chopped onion and a wonderful vinaigrette as an instant salad for just such emergencies!), and you can have a meal on the table faster than you can get back home with takeout. Better for the budget, better for the waistline, and yet still delicious comfort food!!! :) FYI: Although I wouldn't try it with the Loaded, you can serve the Four Cheese or the Idahoan Mashed Potatoes, Buttery Homestyle, 4-Ounce Package (Pack of 12) for a dinner party, even -- they're that good!

Ever since I first tasted the wonders of rose candy, I was hooked. But it was most difficult for me to find. This rose candy isn't like the kind I had first tried, but is very lovely none the less! The outside is deliciously rosey, but the center has a strong anise flavor. I do believe there is even aniseed in the very middle. But that's just fine with me, it's delicious.
113,155
Although the shipping was prompt and it was packed well (wasn't dried out), the Fukien tea tree I recieved was full of aphids, scale and mites. I sprayed it multiple times with insecticidal soap and wiped some of the leaves down individually. The leaves were also very dirty and mottled/testured. I would not recommend this to anyone and I wish I could get my money back but its more hassle than it is worth to ship it back.
113,156
My dog can be picky when it comes to treats and I always worry it's going to be a waste when I buy a new treat for her, but this product looked good and the description was in line with the kind of thing I like to feed her so I wanted to give it a try. I don't want a bunch of filler or weird chemicals for my dog and thankfully there are a few companies out there that seem to agree, Zuke's being one of them. In my opinion, the price is fair for the quality you receive and I never buy low-end dog treats anyway, so it seemed like a good deal in comparison to the prices I usually pay. My dog LOVED these treats and ran to her treat jar hoping to get one ALL the time when we had some of these in there. She "asks" for treats less often when it's something else in there like rawhides. So, we both give this product 5 stars and we'll definitely be ordering them again as well as trying out the other varieties. :)

Love PB2 Chocolate Powdered peanut butter. Tastes great, not a lot of calories, easy to store, and combined chocolate and peanut butter! What's not to love? Well worth the price.
113,158
The absolute best mulling spices to make the absolute best warm spiced cider I have ever tasted! Brew it up in your crock pot and serve a crowd or warm a smaller amoount on the stove top for you and a friend. You won't be disappointed.
113,159
So simple! small but nice! I bought it for a family on thanksgiving holiday. they liked it. Also, it came in a very short time. Thanks Wine country Gift Basket

i was very happy with my espresso coffee. lavaza has a strong but not bitter taste. i will buy again.
113,161
To me, this sauce is like a combination of A-1, Heinz 57, and the old Lea & Perrins steak sauces. It's important to note the dd/mm/yy "best by" dates, but then if you order the four-bottle pack, you get to share with any British sitcom afficionados. I don't know of any British sitcom that doesn't mention "brown sauce", and this is the "real deal"! Of course, if I were to use this in my bangers & mash, I'd go through half a bottle or more at one swoop. Still, it'll happen soon, and I'll have to order more. Refrigerate after opening. No added preservatives. Too bad they had to slap a US label on the side for nutrition facts. I'd like to see the EU standards and peeling the label strips those off. (I might have to use stamp-collecting techniques on the next bottle.) As the bottle states, "Everything goes well with HP Sauce. It's great on your favourite foods including sausages, bacon sandwiches, and chips. Why not try on snacks like jacket potatoes or baked beans." While "jacket potatoes" are just baked potatoes for us Americans, and hardly a snack, what about using it as a dip for potato chips (not just french fries a.k.a. "chips")? Oy, and there's no fat in the sauce!
113,162
very good ..very yummy... just wish jalapeno potato came in super share bags !!!! that would be super awesome !
113,163
To me the flavor is crossed between thousand island dressing and bacon bits. If you like both of those, go for it. I put it on sandwiches and it tastes ok. Probably not something I would buy again though.
113,164
This is a great product! If you like jasmine Green Tea, you should try this one because I know that you will love it!
113,165
this product really tastes like plastic with a raisin in it!!! i was deeply disappointed! i will not recommend this product to anyone!

***** Moroccan Mint is a premium Numi tea. This herbal tea is certified organic and is kosher. On the box, the manufacturer says it better than I ever could: "In the Moroccan spring, the snow melts off the Atlas Mountains, watering the plains below. As the days warm, some of the most soothing, refreshing and full-flavored mint flourishes in this ancient land of the Berbers. With a flavor as light and lively as a newly picked leaf, our choice organic mint will become your favorite mint teasan. An all-day or after-dinner delight, no wonder the Moroccans drink ten cups a day." If you like Numi teas, get it---you won't be sorry. If you are new to Numi but love mint teas, this is one that will not disappoint. *****

The problem with stevia based sweeteners for coffee and thick drinks is the aftertaste. If you like the taste of French Roast, stevia based sugars will leave a bitter-sweet aftertaste that masks it. Xylitol may have 9.6 cal per tablespoon, but this is very acceptable compared to regular sugar, honey, and agave. I cannot believe some people are shortsighted enough to pan Xlear and Xylosweet simply because they have operations in The Peoples Republic of China. Strangely enough, Xylitol was discovered by Russian chemists many years ago and was first used there to manage diabetes. Just think if the food industry in The USA did not have such a stranglehold on the FDA, and Xylitol reached the penetration that it should. Type 2 diabetes and all of the other health related problems in the USA related to obesity and excess sugar intake would probably cut the cost of health care by over $40 Billion per year. So lets put things into perspective. Some people in the West have a problem with a company that operates in The PRC, but neither China nor Russia has ever introduced ASPARTAME and other unhealthy artificial sweeteners and enabled their respective regulatory organs to conspire with private concerns to cover up and mask the detrimental side effects of a product like Aspartame. Xylitol offers the best of both worlds, a 5 chain carbon sugar that does not metabolize like glucose, fights cavities, low calorie intake, and is perfect for coffee drinkers because of its lack of aftertaste. Coffee is where most people get their sugar, and if all the soda drinkers migrated to coffee with xylitol, obesity and type 2 diabetes would be cut by 70%.

If you like coconut water, you'll love it! I've tried several types of coconut water, and this one is the best by far. I love this brand because I can actually taste the natural coconut, without any artificial flavors or added sweeteners. It's packed with nutrients, such as potassium, which make it perfect for recovering after work outs. Most of the time, I drink it chilled with dinner. Also,the aluminum can does a pretty good job of preserving the freshness without adding any additional "flavors" such as in the case of plastic bottles. Ordering from Amazon Subscription service is a bonus because it is sometimes difficult to locate this drink in the supermarket (plus it hardly is ever on sale). I wish it came in a pack of 16 instead of 12.

Perhaps some of you are like I was... wanting to take advantage of the health benefits of oatmeal, but uncertain how to prepare it so that you and your family will actually eat it. After experimenting a bit, and reading lots of recipes, I've come up with a simple, yet tasty way to prepare McCANN's Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal. Give it a try, and you may decide that oatmeal can be a healthy and delicious addition to your breakfast menu. Recipe: - Start by bringing 3 cups of water to a boil (about 3 minutes in the microwave). - In a medium saucepot, melt 1 tablespoon of butter then add 1 cup of oats. Toast the oats on medium heat for about 3 minutes. - Add the boiling water to the toasted oats and simmer for 25 minutes. Don't stir. It should get to a soft bubbling simmer. If it boils to hard, you stove is set too hot, so turn it down or it will burn. - Add 1 cup of milk (or can do with a mix of milk and buttermilk). - Cook an additional 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Makes 4-5 good size servings with excellent texture and consistency. It thickens once it sits a little bit. You can increase or decrease the milk to adjust the consistency as desired. You can also save it for up to a week in the refrigerator without much difference in taste. Just store in small sealed bowls. Each can of McCANNs oatmeal makes about 16-20 servings. Everyone likes to top and sweeten their oatmeal differently (sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, raisins, etc.). Only add the toppings when you're ready to eat it, not before storing in the refrigerator. For my serving, I like to add 2 tsp of brown sugar, a sprinkle of cinnamon, about 1/2 tbsp of butter, and then top with chopped pecans. Very tasty. Hope you enjoy! Please be kind enough to indicate if reviews are helpful.

This is by far the best K-cup coffee I have tasted. Has a big bold taste with lots of flavor. Unfortunately the price is too high so will only buy on special occasions.

People seemed to be confused about the Matcha labeling. It's actually called Matcha blend, the tea in the bag is Sencha tea and the remaining powder in the bag after the tea bag is removed is the Matcha. According to the label, you sprinkle the Matcha powder on your tea after it is done steeping. I'm no tea expert but it tastes pretty good to me and the price is right, as long as you buy it from Costco where it retails for around 12 dollars.

Although they are in crunchy chip form, they really do taste like apples!! Not only that, the crunchy factor and taste combine to make apples funner, tastier, and better to eat! So if you have a kid that refuses to eat fruits like apples, this is the best alternate method!

Cumin is such a wonderful background spice for a warm blend of tastes, like garlic, hot peppers, ground chile peppers, paprika, onion, turmeric, honey, maple syrup. . . and the list goes on. This package is the perfect size for keeping close to the stove, because it is so easy to handle - but difficult to find in that size. Amazon always has it, and even ships it to your door!

Wonderful to NOT have the leaves to deal with and to ALWAYS have to spit out, just have the "meat"

I was afraid to buy this product because of the split on positive and negative results, but I guess I am one of the lucky ones. It came out really well, I have a Hi-rise bread maker if that helps. All you do is add warm water et voila. It sliced really well with a bread knife and it was fluffy on the inside with a harder crust, but not too hard. I also used the "medium crust" on my bread maker just to see how that would turn out. I may try light next time to see how it does. All-in-all very easy, no mess when using the bread maker, and very yummy for toast, sandwiches, and french toast. I gave it 4 stars because eating it just plain like you would with bakery style loaves isn't all that tasty. I need it toasted with butter or something.Then again maybe this isn't the bread to do that with. One last thing-- I wasn't expecting 6 boxes of this stuff when I ordered it, so if you're tight on space you may want to consider that. I thought it was 6 envelopes in one box. Not a negative since we have room, but could be bad if you aren't expecting it.

We purchased after reading reviews expected tea to taste possibly like a peppermint patty, no such luck very mild hint of the mint and chocolate. Dissappointed, considering sending remaining quantity back.

This tea is great! Nowhere else can you get one POUND of high quality tea for $12 shipped to your door. I used to pay $30 for a sub-par product, but no more! You know it's a fresh, high quality tea when it takes 3-6 days for a fresh made batch to start to stink in the fridge. I used to drink Lipton every day, and it takes between 1 and 2 weeks for Lipton (a lower quality tea) to 'go bad' in the fridge. If you know anything about tea, you will know that the more 'processed' and less 'natural' it is, the longer it stays fresh. Davidson's starts to smell anywhere between 3-6 days for me. Highly recommended, you'll love it!

I got excited when I saw Tic Tac's new blue "powermints" and ordered the carton of 12. Unfortunately these really don't taste like typical breath mints ... they taste like MENTHOL COUGH DROPS. This wouldn't be such an issue if I wasn't an ex-smoker, but menthol reminds me of cigarettes. I'll be switching back to my favorite "wintergreen" Tic Tacs.

Here's a little item I picked up at my nearby Fresh and Easy Store. It's a British company and they have a lot of imported items. I was looking over their imports and found cans of Heinz Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce. Now, why would anyone import such a mundane item as canned spaghetti all the way from England? Well my only response was that it must be very good. So I tried a can. I'm not used to eating canned spaghetti and I can't recall any since my poverty-stricken graduate school days. In any case, I was curious. It was excellent, the best canned spaghetti I can ever recall eating! No wonder they import it. You can't get stuff this good in the American brands, at least not that I'm aware of. Would it displace the regularly prepared spaghetti in my diet? No, but for canned spaghetti, this is really good.

Not as mind blowing as their olives. Peloponnese is a fantastic company; their olives are extremely high quality. Nonetheless, I thought these would be even better than they were. They are very good, but I like their competitor "Al Wadi"'s grape leaves just as much.

I have been drinking Good Earth Decaf Green Tea for many years and it is my favorite tea. This tea is not purely green tea leaves - it also contains lemongrass and other flavors. It is flavorful but mild. Ingredients: Decaffeinated Green Tea, Lemongrass, Natural Flavors (Contains Soy Lecithin), Rose Petals and Peppermint. Be aware that the Good Earth Decaf Green Tea does not have the more delicate flavor as real Japanese green tea (and not a roasted flavor like Genmai), but it is great as an everyday tea. If you are expecting green tea like in Japanese restaurants, this is not it - if you want that, get high quality loose tea leaves and brew it with the correct temperature water in a teapot. (Although maybe the Good Earth green tea would taste more similar to Japanese green tea if brewed like Japanese green tea should be - read on...) I often leave my tea bag steeping for a long time (I know, not recommended for green tea, but it likely does extract more of the beneficial antioxidants), up to 30 min, and this tea does not get bitter. It also does not get bitter if the tea sits around before drinking. One Good Earth tea bag works fine for my large 16 oz mug. I have found that other brands of tea can be weak and not flavorful if using only one bag for 16 oz water. I also like that this tea is decaf since even the smaller amount of caffeine in green tea affects me. Decaf green teas are somewhat hard to find. This company uses a CO2 process for decaffeination, preferable to a solvent extraction process. Note that this product is available in 18-count and 25-count boxes. My local grocery store has stopped carrying the 25-count and only stocks the 18-count. I like that Amazon carries the 25-count boxes since I go through a lot of this tea! It is also a better deal at Amazon. I have tried many other brands of green tea (decaf and regular) over the years and keep coming back to Good Earth brand. Highly recommended.

Inspite of the steep price of this cat litter, it is well worth buying, but unfortunately, it hardly lasts longer than one month.

I first tried this coffee from a 39oz. can I got at a canned food warehouse. They don`t sell it on the west coast so I just had to hope it would show up again. It did once but that was it. Since then I have found out I can get it thru amazon. The price is not bad, but the shipping, and time it takes to get here is. It is absolutely the best. Forget starbucks or anything else.

Both my small dogs (5 yr old maltese and a 2 year old yorkie) love these dental chews. They seem to be healthy and the chlorhexadine helps fight tartar.

I have a feeling that those who gave this product bad reviews had very little experience with low carb eating. Does it taste like a regular high carb pancake from Waffle House? Of course not. Is it yummy in its own right? Oh, yes. A quarter cup of mix makes four decent sized pancakes, which I cheerfully cover with low-sugar peanut butter or low-carb jam. Sometimes, I'll eat them with just a little butter when I'm craving bread. I do have to water the batter down some, as it's very thick. I've also used this mix to successfully create beer batter for frying chicken or fish or veggies--it puffs up a good bit when frying, so a little batter goes a long way. (If you decide to use the mix as batter, you may want to add some salt.)

Our son shipped this gift for Fathers Day, it was ordered in time, but definitely not received on time. Three days late. The amount of goodies for the price is not in line in our opinion. Folks are trying to buy a gift when they can't think of something, and the receiver won't usually tell the gifter it was not worth the price and this cycle continues.

I have been using the CLEAR MEN SCALP THERAPY Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for about a week. It comes in a 12.9 ounce bottle with convenient flat ends on both top and bottom, which means that when the bottle starts to empty, it can be stored on its top in order to get the remaining contents out easily. The ingredients include: ginseng, mint, and tea tree. The shampoo itself is a milky cream which emerges readily from the container. The shampoo is not oily or greasy and appears not to leave residues. Any odor is not apparent to me. After one week of use, my scalp feels clean. My hair tends to curl, especially in the rain-forest environment where I live. However, this shampoo seems to flatten my curls. You may or may not like that effect. On the negative side, the shampoo is irritating if you get it in your eyes. Maybe this is caused by the mint. Altogether, I like this shampoo and plan to continue to use it.

Top notch quality. I used it in making fondant for my grandmother's wedding cake and it worked like a charm. I did 8 batches of fondant with it and still had about a half a teaspoon left over. The flavor is nice as well. This is what you expect from a product with Wiltons name on it!!

Solid strips of flavorful beef, slightly tenderized with natural papaya enzymes, gives this jerky a nice bite without stressing out your jaw muscles. Pleasant natural smoke and pepper flavor doesn't overwhelm like so many other brands - the beef flavor comes through. Very low fat (0.5 g) and carb (1 g)per 1 oz serving make this jerky my South Beach Phase 2 snack of choice. Great for an on-the-go protein fix. BTW - 1 oz is a substantial portion to snack on!!!

Postum was a grain beverage that was the answer to coffee for people who didn't drink caffeine beverages. My dad drank postum all the time for breakfast or weekends. The great thing back in those days (1970s) was that even us kids (5 of us) would drink it with him. It doesn't have that pungent coffee smell but it was soooo good to us kids. A little milk and sugar made it look like a creamy cup of coffee, add a bagel and donut-YUMMY!. I drank it up until it was discontinued November of 2007. What a real retro memory.

The stores in our city, Wal-Mart and HEB, at one time, handled the Chocolate Fudge pudding. However, as with many products, as soon as it began to catch on and fly off the shelves, some brilliant purchasing agent decides to discontinue the product. Such is the case with these two stores... leaving a host of taste buds craving the rich chocolate flavor. I decided to try the internet, and to my pleasant surprise, I found the delicious morsel available at Amazon. Pleased, as I so often am, with Amazon's range of available products, I pounced upon the opportunity and purchased a case of this deceptively low calorie dessert treat. Now, we can enjoy the dessert with wild abandon, secure in the knowledge there IS a source. Thank you.

I like Apple Cider and I can have more than one of these for far less calories (10) than the normal cider (80). In fact, I can drink two in the evening as I'm relaxing and I do not have to worry about the calories. If you're used to drinking drinks flavored with aspartame, then these will be just fine! My husband doesn't like them because of the artificial flavoring. And he also doesn't have to worry about his weight like I do. So I bought two kinds of apple cider and neither of us touch the other's cider.

Yummy! So great! If you enjoy mint and chocolate these are for you! Tasty mint cookies dipped in chocolate and you can eat a whole bag with only 100 calories! Definitely worth the money

This tea provides a luscious and refreshing break from your daily grind and helps you relax as well. It's got a great cherry apple taste to it that is not overpowering and if you let it steep about three minutes you're bound to enjoy it as much as I do! Each bag contains all-natural ingredients including hibiscus, cinnamon, chamomile, cranberries and apples. There's some vitamin C in it, too. There are no artificial ingredients! The stringless tea bags can easily be removed from your cup whenever you want just by using a spoon or anything similar to get them out of the cup. Stir the tea bag around and up and down a bit while it's in your cup before you drink it. It's also kosher if that matters to you. The tea is also caffeine free, which is a plus for those of us who don't want caffeine in our diets. That is something I always prefer. If you like a cherry apple, very slightly tart flavor to your tea, this is highly recommended! Enjoy!

This mustard is excellent! While it may not be the mustard you'd want for everyday recipes and is by no means the subtle mustard you'd want with many sandwiches it shines when it comes time to BBQ. Using this mustard when you BBQ chicken/hamburgers/Turkey burgers(especially) and about any marinade you'd use mustard for is a real treat. There is a somewhat pungent quality to the mustard that while it smells somewhat unpleasant when you first open it, it cooks extremely well. The taste is something you can't replace.

This was a fantastic treat that was truly enjoyed by everyone!! What I liked most about this candy is that each piece was wrapped by itself so you could just enjoy one or more if you really wanted too!! It also made for a nice grab and go treat!!

My seeds arrived 3 days after ordering and I immediately began germinating to grow a few nice patches of grass. Almost all of the seeds sprouted and easily grew in soil. I had left them in the container too long and the roots tangled bad and got ripped but they're pretty tough and still grew. The patches also came out real green and thick. I will keep buying them from here!
