14,200 | I've recently gone on a health kick. One of my new regimens is taking cayenne pepper on a daily basis. I knew the small grocery store containers wouldn't be very economical for my purpose and had also read that the hotter the pepper the better so I went straight to Amazon. Of all of the different offerings I found, this one seemed to be the best deal. I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered it but was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. It came in two separate mylar bags of 1lb. each. The bags aren't resealable so I had to put it into another container. I found that one bag fits perfectly into a 1 quart Mason jar. I will say that taking cayenne pepper all by itself is not an easy thing to do, but I'm getting used to it. It helps that this pepper has an excellent flavor. It's not all heat. So, whether you are using it in a recipe, making your own hot sauce or taking it as a daily supplement, I think you will be satisfied with the flavor and heat of Frontier's ground chili peppers. And the price is hard to beat.
For those of you who are new to taking cayenne pepper as a daily supplement or are considering it, here's my experience: The first time I tried it I used 1tsp. in 8oz. of warm water as a sort of tea as I had read on several different natural health forums. I found that it was way too hot for me and 8oz. of it was a lot more than I could make myself drink. My next attempt was 1tsp. dumped on the back of my tongue and washed down with plenty of cold water.. around 16oz. I found that this was bearable, but that a full teaspoon was a lot to swallow. Much of it fell to the side between my cheek and gums... not pleasant. I have since reduced the amount to 1/2tsp and found this to be optimum for me. Surprisingly, there were no ill affects such as heartburn or reflux for me and have read that it will cure stomach ulcers. My only warning is not to take it on an empty stomach. My wife did that the first time she tried it and I'm not sure if I'll ever get her to try it again. |
14,201 | I ordered these because they reminded me of canned brown bread I had as a kid. My wife frequently reminds me that my memories of things are more pleasant than the actual reality. That is the case here. The ones with raisins are fat free. They taste very artificial. Not even as good as an MRE (army food). The flavor is bland. The consistency is artificial. I felt nauseous afterwards. If you just want to experience canned bread, try a different one. |
14,202 | My dog is allergic to almost all major ingredients in almost all dog food. I feed him RAW food but it's getting kind of expensive. He doesn't like eating chicken. Which is the cheapest of all RAW food. He is highly allergic to beef, turkey, duck, egg, wheat, soy, barley, sweet potato, and his list goes on =( So its very hard to find a dog food that has nothing he is allergic too. Have tried so many brands it's unbelievable. Because even if one item is on the very bottom of the list he would break out everywhere for days. his nose turn pink etc. I feed him raw food which he loves and has no problem at all but we travel & sometimes its very hard to have raw meat with you. So it's just a bit easier if he ate kibbles. His poop is solid hard with Avoderm Salmon Grain Free. His coat is shiner & soft. The only thing I don't like about this is that Peas is the 1st ingredients on the list. Also tomato pomace is a controversial ingredient most people say its a by-product remaining after processing tomatoes into juice, soup and ketchup.
But so far my dog is very happy eating this and he can't wait until it's time for him to eat.
But I will keep looking for something better which is really hard unless I make my own dog food which I don't have time for =( |
14,203 | I love that I am able to find such dessert flavors in a tea. No calories!
This tea is creamy and tangy and makes quite a comforting cup!
I think that it would be delicious with a splash of milk or some sugar, but it is enjoyable by itself. |
14,204 | I contacted the seller regarding the best type the raw or liquid type for baking and they recommended the raw type. I was disappointed with the results. Since then, I tried this in iced tea and again, was disappointed. I had to continually stir the contents of a large pitcher because the honey sunk to the bottom. The taste of the honey never diminished, but it was a pain in the neck to do the stirring every time I wanted a glass of iced tea. Next time I will buy the regular honey. |
14,205 | I definitely didn't like the flavor of this and didn't taste any berry whatsoever! I actually tasted coconut?!? I ended up giving these away for free! |
14,206 | These chips are quite literally a mixed bag. If not for the yucca chips (I think it's the yuccas), this would be a solid 5 star bag of chips. The problem with the yucca chips is that they are very hard and difficult to chew. The reviewer below who complained of jaw problems after eating them was not off the mark. I had minor jaw pain myself after eating them. I am not sure why, but half to most of the bag consists of these undesired tooth killers. They are also the chips with the least flavor out of the bunch, so I'm guessing they are also the cheapest to produce. It's a shame, because the yuccas are really dragging this bag of chips down and keeping me from recommending it. Get with it, Terra! |
14,207 | These bones are awesome! My dogs love them - it's great.
I purchased these for $22, and went back to buy some more and now they are $32 which is a huge increase in price. I don't understand why there was this big increase? I don't really want to buy them anymore. |
14,208 | I bought these for my girlfriend on her birthday along with some flowers and she loved them. She liked them so much that I had to get her another order when she was done! I also liked that they had the option to pack with ice packs because I ordered in the summer and didn't want them to be melted when they arrived. I am very happy with the product... as is my lovely lady :) |
14,209 | I love this storage unit. It holds so much more than other versions.. PLUS it seems more sturdy than the single stack storage unit. However-- beware of the size. If you intend to put this inside of a cabinet make sure to measure. |
14,210 | I needed a dog food to try & curb my little one from eating her own poop...not 100% but it's slowly working. She likes it. Since she is so small she has some trouble with the size but is getting more used to it and is eating more each day. Was skeptical about sweet potato curbing the "poop appeal" but am slowly thinking there might be something to it. |
14,211 | I love this brand of k-cup! Just the right blend for me... not too strong, not too light... just right. Amazon gives you the best value when buying k-cups :) |
14,212 | My wife loves this cereal. When I saw this for sale on Amazon for the great price it was listed at, we jumped on it - and likely will again too. Much more expensive to buy in grocery stores! |
14,213 | We discovered FibreGourmet pastas recently. We have tried the Fettuccine, Rotini, Penne so far. We love all of them. You MUST cook them a little longer than directions say to. I'm not sure you can overcook them. They seem to stay Al Dente, which we enjoy! Love the high fiber, low calories. |
14,214 | I love these almonds, and for quite a while when I purchased them, they came straight from Amazon. The price was reasonable and with a Prime membership, they arrived quickly.
For some reason, the almonds no longer come straight from Amazon; rather, they come from a vendor I wasn't familiar with. The price went up and I now had to pay shipping, but I went for it anyway.
Big mistake.
I was immediately suspicious when the product arrived. When the almonds shipped directly from Amazon, they came in a sealed box from Emerald Nuts.
This vendor threw individual boxes of almonds into another shipping box.
Why does that matter? The sealed case product was of very high quality. These individual boxes were absolutely terrible and tasted old.
This is an educated guess, but my gut feeling is that these were purchased at a discount by the vendor and then sent to customers at full price. At least I hope that's what happened, because these almonds were just awful. Chewy and stale.
I miss buying these, but as long as they come from the current reseller at an inflated price, inflated shipping, and inferior product, I will not purchase them again. If we're ever lucky enough that Amazon starts carrying them straight from Emerald, I'm in.
Check the source of the product; I personally recommend you not buy if they're not shipping directly from Amazon. |
14,215 | Okay, maybe the heading exagerates just a tad... Red Popcorn has a MUCH more tender husk than regular popcorn does and when it pops, it explodes the kernel so well that the husks basically disappear. When it pops, it looks pretty much like any other popcorn, except that the popped kernels are slightly smaller than usual. The meet is white, but you can see the little bits of red kernel in them. You would never know that the pretty, white popcorn you were eating started out red-colored if you hadn't seen it before popping.
The flavor is great! It smelled "toastier" as it was popping than other popcorns we've tried. We tried it all different ways, with toppings ranging from sweet to savory and every way was good.
We also liked the fact that it is grown by Amish people and are happy to support their efforts to raise their crops the "old way." They believe in sustainable farming and a clean, wholesome way of life. No ConAgra multi-national conglomerates here, just real, individual farmers making a living off their land.
Great products raised and produced by real farmers. What better reasons do you need to buy some of this really tasty popcorn!? |
14,216 | Of all energy gels, the chocolate Gu has to be the best. Chocolate Gu tastes just like cake frosting...mmmmm. It stands on its own and would be a worthwhile dessert.
Drink plenty of water with this one. I've found that the chocolate flavor requires just a little more water to wash it down...must be the frosting texture.
After my first experience with Chocolate Outrage Gu, I experimented with a Ziploc bag full of Betty Crocker frosting. It had the same effect, but was a bit messy. |
14,217 | The service for return was poor. The product reached me melted and fully bloomed (chocolate was white with spots and streaks on the surface). Though this is something that can be reused by melting, not for the seeding for which I'd needed this. They were not agreeing for return for a product that reached me in a form that was not acceptable. I had to explain my need and purpose. They did not refund my previous shipment or tax nor did they pay for the return shipment. I ended up paying $25 for the return shipment. The product is a lot costly through this vendor. Actually double its price. I bought a 5kg block of the same chocolate from a local Callebaut vendor. Please research your local listings. Stop buying through these channels. If you want Callebaut chocolates, call the number in the callebaut website and get the contacts of the local distributor. While through this vendor the milk/white chocolate for 1kg costed me close to $50 with shipping, I bought the 5kg block from the local distributor for just $47!! |
14,218 | This hot sauce is so tasty with Mexican food / Tex Mex that for me personally, nothing even touches it. This isn't a hot sauce that I would use for Buffalo Wings or home fries. This stuff lends itself to tacos, nachos, burritos etc so well that it's hard to describe. I'm a hot sauce fanatic and I love habenero hot sauces, but habenero hot sauce just doesn't work on a taco like this stuff does. I always thought it did, and it is very yummy, but not like this stuff on Tex mex or Mexican chow. I live in Upstate New York and travel a lot for business. I buy this stuff on the west coast for $1.29 a bottle at the grocery store, bubble wrap it and bring it home in my luggage. I think about this hot sauce some times. It's amazing. To put it in perspective for you west coasters, I hate Tapatio. It's got too much vinegar. This stuff does not. I would like to thank the creator of this hot suace, because it's that good. It really stands out on Tex Mex especially. Mmmmm.YUMMY ! ! ! ! |
14,219 | Pero Instant Natural Beverage, 7-Ounce Canisters (Pack of 6) My husband and I love this drink. It is tasty with creamer for a hot drink or without creamer and with ice for a cold beverage. We sweeten ours with Stevia, and since Pero has no caffeine, and contains Barley, Chicory, and Rye, well, how can we go wrong? No fat, low carbs, low calories! Wouldn't be without it. Unlike coffee, it is not addictive because when we don't have it, we don't get withdrawals. We just miss it. |
14,220 | If Keurig brewers were evaluated by this particular K-Cup, Keurig would be out of business. Wolfgang Puck - French Roast Melange Francais is inexcusably terrible coffee. Aroma hints of singed oak leave and the top note is simply bitter. Mid taste is like the bottom ounces of a days old Kwiki-Mart carafe. Mouth feel is harsh and leaves an appalling coating. The after taste leads one to immediately brush ones teeth. I simply couldn't believe my Keurig was capable of making such a bad cup of coffee, so I tried again a week later with same results. I use average-to-good filtered water and have no problems with other brands like Green Mountain, Tulleys, nor Emeril's. Everyone I know that has a Keurig learned of it via word of mouth or a shared cup. Usually the results are stunning, and the Keurig invasion lives on. When I share I'll stick with offering The Coffee Peoples' Black Tiger or Jet Fuel. Now I have 22 more WP/FR K-cups sitting in the bottom draw of my china cabinet to get rid of. Let me know if you want them, as I'd be embarrassed to even give them away. Sorry Wolfgang, but what the Puck - your French Roast is unpardonably horrible, and at K-cup prices I'll not be duped again. I'll stay away from any of the other WP offerings. |
14,221 | I have a hard time believing Benriach 15 Dark Rum cask finished single malt whiskey is really aged 15 years. It's tow-headed pale yellow: among the lightest colored whiskey's I've ever seen. The aroma is nice - marshmallow, cake batter and butterscotch. With extended time a clear pineapple note comes to dominate the aroma. The pineapple and butterscotch aroma (pineapple upside down cake?) is yummy. On the tongue it is filigreed and lacy. Cerial honey, cake batter up front. There are some fruit esters at midpalate (apricot and sugar cane) and distant wood notes at the finish which is moderately short. My issue here is that there is too little oomph. What flavor there is here is nice - but there's a bit too little for my taste. Looking, smelling, and drinking this I would guess it has 8 years in the wood - not 15. |
14,222 | I have been doing Atkins for months now and having Carbquik has really helped me stay on it without cheating (much). It takes a little experimentation to make recipes come out right, but once you do it is really good stuff. Adding cream and butter liberally helps make really good biscuits. My girlfriend also makes some great meat and Carbquik casseroles.
Some people complain about it not being perfect but ITS LOW CARB BREAD. It tastes amazing when you don't have bread. Anything with a biscuit like texture will come out good and will be a joy to eat.
I can only hope that they come out with more products like this. I love my food and this definitely helps me eat the dishes I crave while staying on a diabetic friendly diet. |
14,223 | Nothing like this oil in mac and cheese or on eggs. A very good value compared to other truffle oils in the market. |
14,224 | We used to feed my dog Science Diet Nature's Best but it is being discontinued and we had to find something new. After much research we decided to go with Wellness CORE. I have a 2.5 year old Golden Retriever and immediately we noticed a huge change in her appetite. We always assumed she was a finicky eater before because she seemed disinterested in her food and wouldn't eat her full meal. As soon as we switched her food to CORE she started eating her entire meal and shows way more eagerness while waiting to be served. I'm glad we made the switch to CORE and my only regret is that we didn't do it sooner. |
14,225 | It's good. If you like darker, but not bitter, it's a decent cup of Joe. I will buy it again. Guests of mine that also had it commented on how they liked it. The flavor is a crowd pleaser, but nothing really exceptional to it that I could call out. |
14,226 | I drink my coffee in much the same way a 12 year old probably would...very light and very sweet. I found this coffee drink to be extremely bitter and not nearly sweet enough. I noticed some people here saying this was too sweet, but I just did NOT find that to be the case. It also left a very strong and not-so-pleasant after taste. If you like your coffee strong and black, then you'll probably really like this. However if you're a cream and sugar kinda person, this will most likely be too bitter for you. |
14,227 | Shipping was prompt. Packaging was good. However, the 'bulk' product was actually more expensive (~$1 or 13% more) and not as good as available locally 'by-the-piece' in downtown Chicago.
In addition, we were hoping that there would be nutritional information. There was not. Instead, there were 76 pieces in a plain plastic bag weighing 16.1 ounces.
So, overall the vendor performed well but there was no value added.
Quality Comparison
-----------------------
The wrapping was similar but the candy is less sweet like it contains HFCS instead of honey and the texture is noticeably coarser and seems to stick to our teeth a lot more. This made us miss the nutritional disclosures even more.
Cost Comparison
--------------------
Bayside Candy on Amazon = $8.59 / 76 pieces = $0.113
Downtown Chicago at Kramer's Health Foods = $7.60 / 76 pieces = $0.10 or about $1 less for the same quantity and we have the flexibility to buy as many or few as we like.
In short, we found no advantage and will continue to drop at in the local health food shop and get our sesame treats along with a friendly smile and without the extra packaging waste or wait for delivery. Amazon's great, but you can't win 'em all. |
14,228 | Thanks Amazon for providing great punctual service for a great product. Will do business with you in the future! |
14,229 | First of all, I'm not a big Tea drinker. I'm far less than an aficionado. I'm 24 years old and hopelessly addicted to coffee and energy drinks. I've always entertained the idea of switching to Tea for health reasons, but have never made the transition mainly due to the taste of tea. I enjoy feeling healthy and coffee made me too jittery, energy drinks offer too much in a can and 5 hour energy shots work but are expensive. On top of it all, coffee, energy drinks and 5 hour energy shots devastated my intestinal track. (I drink all without sugar and use nondairy fat free creamer due to lactose intolerance)
I tried various Green and Black Teas, but I couldn't get past the taste. However, the trouble was finding a balance between something I could enjoy drinking with no additives, but still get a decent amount of caffeine and ECGC. Then I came across Celestial's Honey Lemon Ginseng Green Tea. I know Ginseng is one of few "natural" roots scientifically proven to improve alertness, so that was an added bonus. The first time I tried it, I instantly enjoyed it. Although the caffeine and ECGC levels aren't as high as other brands, taste comes first and foremost for me. Now it is all I drink, besides Celestial's Sleepy Time blend.
I don't work for Celestial, but I kinda wish I did, because I am so happy to have finally found a tea I actually ENJOY drinking.
Since I'm not a huge tea drinker, I'd recommend it to first time tea drinkers and casual tea drinkers alike. |
14,230 | Wonderful jerky that is full of flavor and is not overly dry like the jerky you get at gas stations. I would recommend this to anyone who loves jerky. |
14,231 | My 13-month old loves these! They almost always satisfy her in the car or stroller. They do have a larger portion of sugar than I like, so I try to give her 1/2 at a time... but it's sugar from the fruit, not added sugar, so I don't mind as much. They have great taste and are easy to take along in the diaper bag or a pocket. Hands will be sticky after your kid is done with this snack...
This is a 5-star product except for the sugar content... although I'm not sure I'm being fair deducting a star for natural sugar. It's not more than an actual apple or banana... it's just that there's more sugar than she usually eats in one snack. |
14,232 | If you love your dog, do not purchase these treats. I do not believe all the hype about them. You might as well hand over to your mutt any light plastic in your joint, because that is what these treats resemble. Oh, and be ready to perform removal of partially visible fecal matter from your dog's anus after ingestion of the above "chipz". I never knew a dog could scream. My tale has thus ended. Please heed my warning. |
14,233 | I love this gum! I can't find it anywhere but here! I keep buying it. It ships very fast and I've been happy with every purchase. |
14,234 | I absolutely love this product. I can't drink regular coffee so I have to drink decaf and the taste is awesome. |
14,235 | As a lover of flavored coffees this is one of my favorites. Not too strong or too weak. |
14,236 | I am hawaiian and we appreciate the light -airy heritage extremely long hair that is our signature. This product is a wonder worker to keep my hair soft, the cuticles are stronger, and I like the fragrance, too. |
14,237 | These are so much better than the pre-packaged ones. Not too many calories. I cook mine for 2 min and 20 seconds in a very small microwave. |
14,238 | Received the Petite Lite Greenies 27 oz box today. The picture shows a count of 96 bones, but I only got a box of 45. I realize that the picture shows the Teenie size w/96 and 27oz, so naturally the next size up Petite would have fewer bones, but I think receiving only 45 is a bit deceiving. 45 bones for almost $25 isn't bad, but I won't be purchasing on a regular basis. These are for a Christmas gift, so they are a splurge anyway! My dogs, a Chihuahua, MinPin and Shichon love them! |
14,239 | These are just delicious brownies. They are more cake-like to me that the brownies I grew up eating, which are ultra-rich and fudgy, but these brownies fill the void PERFECTLY!
My son has allergies to peanuts, tree nuts and milder allergies to eggs, and so I really am thankful that I can have access to a boxed brownie that he can help me make (he can't help if I do anything with eggs) and that everyone LOVES to eat.
Real Simple magazine ranked these at the top of their brownie-from-a-box list, and those included brownies that had the top allergens.
My best friend, who has no food allergies, thinks these are the best brownies she's ever eaten. Pretty high praise!!!
Thanks again, Cherrybrook Kitchen--your brownies and whole-wheat pancakes are life-savers--literally!!!! And tasty, to boot! |
14,240 | Okay, it is a good rice. Tilda Basmati is a completely fantastic rice if separate rice grains are an important thing to you.
I should say that I purchased a Zojirushi NS-LAC05 rice cooker. If you want rice to make a difference, buy a really good rice cooker. Rice does not have to be a filler substance.
Tilda Basmati Rice has extra-super long grains. The grains are so long that many of them curl after being prepared. This is an absolutely superb rice if a fluffy, separate grain rice is of high priority. There is a place for that and I am quite thankful for my purchase for that category of need. Tilda really is a great, high quality rice for common rice needs.
Since I got my Zojirushi rice cooker, well, the cooker really brings out the differences in rice. If you just prepare your rice in a saucepan on the stove, it really doesn't matter all that much to buy an upper level quality rice IMHO. No offense to saucepan/stove-top people. Rice is a good and often necessary food item. Stove-top prep is certainly better than not having it. HOWEVER, my Zojirushi rice cooker has really made rice a whole 'nuther deal.
And to my point: Tilda Basmati is a really great rice if you want fluffy rice with separate rice grains. Fluffy rice with separate grains is a totally valid category. In fact, it may be what most people want. I feel that my Tilda Basmati is a very high quality rice. My only disappointment is that it is in that extra long grain category and the fact that it produces very separate rice grains, which could be a very positive aspect to many, if not most. I just happen to like rice that sticks together more.
I would buy it again in a heartbeat next time I need long grain rice that has very separate grains. Since I purchased a 10-Pound bag, I may not need to buy more for a while.
Very highly recommended if you want fluffy rice with separate grains. Not much good for sushi rice. |
14,241 | I used to prefer any Ceylon or orange pekoe tea when drinking black, until trying this "English Afternoon" tea by Twinnings. It just has a distinctive flavor that I have not tasted anywhere else. It's difficult to describe, so I would suggest trying a single box somewhere before committing to the case of 6 here. I have this product on subscription now due to my 3-cups-a-day habit! It's not too bitter, and it has this well-rounded flavor and full bodied mouthfeel (for a tea!). I love it!
It also seems to have a natural sweetness to it (especially compared to Ceylon), and I highly recommend it with milk and sugar. Enjoy! |
14,242 | I use these syrups in my protein shakes with coffee. They are terrific, I buy them all the time. |
14,243 | This is my new favorite go-to carbonated beverage. It does have a super fake-sugar aftertaste, so that's always a plus for me. So far, I have only tried the orange-mango flavor, but I also ordered the strawberry kiwi, seeing as I love this one so much! To top it off, the shipping on this was extremely fast! |
14,244 | MiO's Liquid Peach is a low-to-no-calorie mixer. Mixing a squirt or two of it with an 8 to 16 oz. glass of water creates the equivalent of what I'll call "peach water." While that tastes fine, mixing in more liquid makes the drink stronger than I prefer. The peach flavor, however, is a nice change from water with lime or lemon and doesn't require me to wring the juice out of a peach. Worth a try. |
14,245 | I use this grapefruit oil in a detox recipe I found online and I like it. I plan to use it in aromatherapy also, but haven't done so yet. The smell is energizing and I would also like to use it in homemade cosmetics and candles. |
14,246 | These were my babies first food she could self feed and she still loves them. I think she started eating them around six months or so. |
14,247 | I am a tea drinker so why not drink a tea that is good for you. This tea is mild and slightly fragrant. I am concerned however that this tea came in newer individual packets that look newer then the tea bag itself. I also thought that this tea was a little over priced, since I am able to go to an Asian market and get green tea cheaper. |
14,248 | I love drinking flavored coffee black, and this one is particularly tasty! It is wonderful that they make it in a K-cup - we have this in the office and now I can enjoy it at home, too! |
14,249 | This puzzle is more difficult to solve than other Kyjen puzzles. My only problem is that they can pull the purple sliding parts off. |
14,250 | The Amazon product info claims they are a certified organic product. The picture claims DOP certified. Neither appears to be true. The cans I received were just "certified", and it didn't say by who. There is no USDA Organic label either. I also knew all these things before I bought them since they are well documented in the Amazon reviews already, so I wasn't surprised by what I received.
On the plus side, they are better tomatoes than I can buy canned in the grocery stores locally, so I'm happy enough with them, and I used reward points from my Amazon.com Visa to buy them, so they were essentially free to me.
Would I buy them again? Maybe. If couldn't get any of the Strianese D.O.P. certified San Marzano tomatoes, then yes I probably would. As I said, they are tasty and I do like them better than what I can buy locally, but they aren't the top tomato when it comes to what I can mail order. |
14,251 | This crust took a little experimentation at first, but now it makes a very good gluten-free pizza. I found that using extra olive oil and white rice flour keeps it from being so sticky - I even grease and sprinkle the baking sheet with rice flour to prevent sticking. Too much water can ruin it, though hot water seems to work best. Also, baking the crust before applying the toppings works best. |
14,252 | My dog loves them, but I originally bought them because I wanted to switch over from the jerkey treats out of China. For clarification these treats aren't jerkey....my dog gobbles them in about 1.5 seconds but she is greatful. The best part about them is they are made in the USA so no worries about poisining. The cons are they are EXPENSIVE for what you get. But I guess anything in the US is going to be more expensive than China. I'd rather support local than China anyday!!!!! |
14,253 | This is an assortment of K-cups for chai tea and chai tea lattes. It is a convenient way to taste test various products without buying a lot of any single one. They come loosely packed in a plain white box. |
14,254 | I first tried these chips when I was deployed to Iraq, and they are still the same great chips. Grippo's never disappoints. |
14,255 | I tried this tea recently and It tasted just fine. It tasted better to me than they're regular black tea, but I have tasted other brands that have tasted just as good as this too. I wish the bags were sealed to prevent them from gradually losing their flavor though. You can use a mesh screen tea ball to do the same thing with loose tea, if you dont wanna pay extra for the pyramids. |
14,256 | These were a bit stale when they arrived. Other than that I have no complaints. Pear and margarita are the best flavors! |
14,257 | When a peanut butter addict like me says this is better, it is saying a lot
Wonderfull flavor, Very creamy texture, almost to creamy, more like a puree.
Not to oily or sweet, just right. doesn't stick to the roof of your mouth.
Organic makes it even better and healthier |
14,258 | Have been buying Bustelo for years and was happy to see this Supreme which I was not acquainted with. I strongly recommend it - delicious coffee all the time. |
14,259 | Barilla's new pantry Mezze Penne products are an exciting lineup. You can enjoy a hot pasta meal in 60 seconds. Furthermore, the product stores at room temperature, which allows you to take it to work to use in a work microwave, or to have it shipped from a store like Amazon.com without worry in most climates. This product includes the Traditional Marinara Sauce.
The pasta sauce is stored in a bin above the pasta. To prepare the meal, you peal back the top seal to expose the sauce and allow ventilation. You heat it for 60 seconds. Let it cool, remove the rest of the seal carefully, pour the sauce on the pasta, transfer it to a plate should you wish, and eat! It's fast, and it is simple. No refrigeration required. It truly is a nifty idea.
The only downside is that they are not the tastiest products. I have tried the Tomato & Basic, Marina, and Spicy Marina. It's extremely difficult for me to tell a difference between any of the sauces. The sauces are not great. Just ok. My favorite is probably the Spicy Marina, but it's truly stretching it to call one my favorite and again, to even differentiate the taste between sauces is difficult.
In terms of the pasta, it comes out slightly gooey and not as soft as it could be. Just ok. There are some additional instructions provided, to add some water to the pasta after the first 60 seconds and cook longer, but these instructions are not completely clear. I tried this once, and the pasta did not change at all.
Overall, a brilliant idea. With the great storage ability, it's not bad to have one or two of these on hand for a long work day, when you want a simple lunch or dinner fast. However, in general, I would not want to consume these on a daily basis. Perhaps, over time, they will improve the product. If they could include just a slightly higher quality sauce and pasta, it could be a real winner. Right now, just ok. |
14,260 | I love mushrooms. I been eating them all my life. From fresh to dried to brined. I wouldn't call these mushrooms, but rather a mess. This is a 3rd different roland brand mushrooms I bought and all 3 been mediocre at best. I think the problem is 2 fold. 1, the mushroom come in this flavorless goo that it suffocates it. 2 preboiling them kills the flavor and makes it taste like cardboard. I have had these dried and brined before and all the time they had texture to them. These do not have any flavor or texture. Dissapointed. You are better off buying fresh button mushrooms than these! |
14,261 | Tasted this coffee while on vacation at my sister's home in Minnesota and was instantly hooked! Has that full round flavor of deep roasted coffee -- can't imagine drinking any thing else when I make my morning brew! Eight O'Clock Coffee does the French Roast Bean proud! |
14,262 | The product tastes great! It is an excellent product for those who are trying to lose weight. I highly recommend this product. |
14,263 | Great worms and a great value for money. A bit on the sour side, as the sour will overpower the flavor of the worms, which are quite enjoyably flavored, so I took one star off. I have been pleased with other albanese products as well |
14,264 | OK, not really magic, but it sure does make you feel better when you have a cold. It also does wonders at soothing a sore tummy.
Honestly, the first time I tried this drink, I thought it smelled kind of funny. But once I took a couple of sips, the warmth of the ginger, and the sweet taste of honey, all combined and cleared my sinuses, soothed my sore throat, and made me feel really relaxed. Now, it just smells like ginger and honey to me, and I know it will make me feel better.
I also drink it when I have an upset stomach. The ginger makes you feel like all your stomach muscles relax and it warms you up from the inside. It settles queasiness too.
But don't just think of this as a medicinal drink. It's tasty, and is a great addition to my collection of tea. Even when I'm not feeling a cold or a stomach ache, it's a great way to warm up and relax! |
14,265 | Love this product! It adds flavor to your water without all the nasty artificial sweetners. Hope this product is here to stay! |
14,266 | Since starting Wellness wet food, not only does my cat love it, but certain problems she has had cleared up - throwing up, and chronic watery eyes have disappeared. One thing - she gets finicky about eating it when it's cold. At room temp she devours it! |
14,267 | Its hard to get our niece to eat much when she's over at our house every week. She likes Cheerios, and that's about it. I can't ever get her to eat fruit or vegetables.
So thank goodness for products like the Baby Gourmet Organic Puree!
She has gobbled one of these down each of the past three time's she's been at our house, even asking for one last time instead of Cheerios!
The pouch is really toddler safe as well, which is a bonus. The lid goes on securely and definitely takes an adult to open, so she hasn't been able to get into them without our knowing.
Really great treat for a toddler! |
14,268 | We were pleasantly surprised with this product. The cranberries were moist and delicious. Have used other products from this company and they have all been good. The delivery was good. We highly recommend this product and will order again. |
14,269 | I started ordering popcorn from Amazon because out local grocery stores only sell one brand of regular popcorn. Most of the popcorn they sell is microwave. Since there is only one to buy, there is no comparison price shopping and the stores seem to be taking advantage of this. This was very tasty popcorn. I tried many of the different Amish Country Brand popcorns. This was by far the best. The price is very reasonable even taking shipping into consideration. |
14,270 | Pros:
- Extremely fragrant
- Full bodied
- Can be steeped twice
- Nice air-tight container
- Organic
Cons:
- Price
The Tao of Tea, Blue Flower Earl Grey Black Tea is the best Earl Grey I have ever tasted, and I would recommend it to anyone.
The Tao of Tea, Blue Flower Earl Grey Black Tea, Loose Leaf, 3.5-Ounce Tins (Pack of 2) |
14,271 | These are hands-down the absolute best Salt & Vinegar chips you can buy. They have a great, strong flavor that has left me addicted. These are certainly my favorite chips. I highly recommend trying them! |
14,272 | I really though that this was gonna taste kinda funky.. I mean, I hate flavored water in general. This spearmint Metromint water was a GREAT surprise! Drinking it cold was so amazingly refreshing; it also helped relieve mid-day hunger because of its flavoring. I think it would be a great weight-loss supplement.
I haven't tried any of the other flavors -- I thought chocolate was a little too crazy -- but now I'm definitely going to. Thanks @ Dallas, too, for the info on the chocolate water. Can't wait to give it a shot. |
14,273 | I bake homemade bread daily and use lots of yeast.The 4 ounce jars are $4 each .This bag was 2 pounds and I got free shipping with it so saved a bundle and the yeast is really nice and fresh.I had saved some of my old yeast jars so I put a couple in the refrigerator and freeze the rest for later |
14,274 | I can't stand aspartame and Splenda because of the chemical aftertaste, but I read good things about stevia and glucose tolerance (search PubMed on NIH's website for stevia), so wanted to give it a try. I can definitely tell the difference between sugar and Truvia. It leaves sort of a woody/licorice aftertaste in my mouth, but the taste does not linger as long as the aftertaste from Splenda. Truvia is not nearly as unpleasant as Splenda, but I think I would prefer tea or coffee unsweetened over sweetened with Truvia.
Just to prove that I wasn't being unconsciously biased against Truvia, I asked my husband to brew a pot of coffee, split it equally into two measuring cups, and add 2 teaspoons of sugar to one cup and 1 packet of Truvia to the other. (In case this seems somewhat arbitrary, Truvia states that 1 packet is equal to about 2 teaspoons of sugar, in sweetness.) I didn't want down two cups of coffee at once, so I drank several shot glasses of the differently-sweetened coffee. After several blind taste tests, I could tell which one was Truvia and which one was sugar every time. Also, the aftertaste seemed to get worse as the coffee cooled.
My husband could also tell the difference between Truvia and sugar, but he didn't seem to mind the taste very much. A friend of ours can't tell the difference between Truvia and sugar at all. So before you spring for a box (or 6 boxes, on Amazon) of Truvia, as it is fairly expensive compared to Splenda or sugar, you should try a packet or two elsewhere first.
As for how sweet it is compared to sugar - it seems plenty sweet to me but I usually don't put a lot of sugar in my drinks. Some suggestions to mitigate the aftertaste are: put it in a hot drink (and drink it while it's hot), or put it in a drink with lots of other flavors to mask it, like strong chai (I could still taste it through the chai, but it's not as bad), or use half sugar and half Truvia. |
14,275 | I didn't care for it but after reading other comments I'll try it again.
It had a dried fish like taste to me and I could only manage a couple sips.
I put it on ice with nothing else, no sugar and didn't like it.
The Orange pekoe is good and the Earl Grey is fantastic but
that's My opinion.
The Earl Grey will open your eyes like caffeinated coffee!
My favorite of the 3 I've tried.
The orange pekoe don't seem to have caffeine but has a great taste!
Bed time tea :) |
14,276 | JFG is an excellent mayonnaise made and sold in the south. My family was in the grocery business back in the 30's through 80's. The JFG salesman made weekly calls to keep us well stocked. JFG was best known as a coffee manufacturer.
I ordered the 4-quart case a couple of months ago and had it delivered to my cousin in Kansas where you cannot buy it in the stores. My father and his brother (my cousin's father) both made pimento cheese using JFG mayo. My cousin's son made a batch soon after the mayo arrived and can now make several more batches. |
14,277 | We sent it to my Grandma for Mother's Day. It was ordered the Thursday before and arrived Saturday in time! She absolutely loved it!!! |
14,278 | This tea which actually contains no tea is a good, decaf alternative. Nice flavor and light red color to enjoy. |
14,279 | I dislike almonds. I've never known quite why. There's something about them I've just never cared for. So I approached this product with more than a little trepidation.
Thankfully my concerns were meaningless! This is tasty, crispy, crunchy and good. The almonds are all very smell, and with almost no taste of almonds at all. In fact, I really, really liked it, not just tolerated it. I liked it well enough that, if I were at a store and saw this for sale, I'd probably buy it, and that's really saying something for me! |
14,280 | My husband will not use ANY other kind of chili powder. We are unable to find it in grocery stores, so I buy a 6-pack for him every year and put the bottles in his stocking. It truly is the BEST chili powder available. |
14,281 | This product has worked out very well for us. And the delivery was a breeze. It arrived in 2-3 days. |
14,282 | My husband was diagnosed with diabetes more than 5 years ago. I have used this ever since. It does not have bad ingredients that other artificial sweeteners have. His doctor was also pleased with the write up on it. You can even bakae with this with no bitter taste. Use in same equal measure and regular sugar. |
14,283 | These are the BEST I've ever had. Family always ends up with 1/2lb to 1lb because they ask if I ordered anymore. All-in-all these are the best Swedish Fish I've purchased. Great people to work with as well... Thank you!! |
14,284 | These are 60% juice, because they are sweetened with water and a natural sweetener. Still tasty, and I like the little bottle sizes. I like that it doesn't taste like saccharin. |
14,285 | Everything is better with bacon. Will keep 2 and give 2 for stocking stuffers to share the joy this year. |
14,286 | May be an acquired taste for some but these chips are deelish... My husband eats them and he doesn't like "healthy foods" ... It is NOT a low calorie chip, but natural and no wheat and no weird ingredients...love :) |
14,287 | Every morning, I have hot chocolate mixed with instant coffee and some cinnamon. This is a great choice because it is only 25 calories a packet, with 30% of your daily calcium requirement. I tried the similar product by Swiss Miss, but it doesn't dissolve fully like this one does, it leaves big clumps on the side of the cup and sediment on the bottom so I was very happy to go back to this one, even though it's more expensive, because it dissolves very well and has a great taste.
It's great that Amazon carries this by the case. It's cheaper than buying it at my local grocery here in California, however, when I lived in New England it was cheaper at the local store. I was thinking the only thing that would make it better would be if they sold it in cannisters so I wouldn't have to deal with all these little packets and boxes, and I just noticed today that Amazon HAS THIS in cannisters now. Woohoo! |
14,288 | I have to admit that those chips are so good that they are highly addictive. I can't stop eating them!!! It's crunchy and seasoned at the right amount of flavor and salt. Just perfect!!! Believe me, some chips are so salty, I can't finish a small bag. But this one... I just keep on eating! |
14,289 | i've tried all kinds of energy drinks and dislike the metallic aftertaste of most of them. i don't know why there are so many out as they basically taste all the same. i really like steaz products. this energy drink actually does have flavor and is good to drink. it does give you energy without the quick burst and crash. drink steaz and do your body good! |
14,290 | product had a few heart shaped pieces in the bag...They were very good but the squares were ok at best...won't buy again! |
14,291 | I bought this a few years ago and really liked it. They must have changed the recipe because this just tasted odd, sort of medicinal. |
14,292 | I starting eating Brazil nuts daily about 3 years ago after reading the Mayo Clinic thought they might be helpful for middle aged women with arthritis in their knees. Brazil nuts are loaded with selenium, magnesium, & copper, making them a very healthy food. My knees have improved, but don't know if the Brazil nuts had anything to do with it. I'd never eaten them before, but have come to really like them. I've tried several brands from different websites, but have found these to be the best. I also like the fact that Amazon offers free shipping on orders over $25. Other websites can charge almost as much for postage as for the nuts. |
14,293 | This hot sauce is my family's favorite because of the flavor it adds to any meal. I have to have it all the time regardless of the meal and it's good every time. |
14,294 | I drink one of these everyday. The strawberries and cream RTD is probably my favorite, which cookies and cream being second. These are perfect for when you are out and can't get some sort of healthy snack. |
14,295 | These cookies are great tasting, crisp and sometimes hard to find. It was great to get a bunch on Amazon. My husband loves these. |
14,296 | This is simply exquisite chocolate - better than Vahlrona and better than any other I have had the pleasure of tasting. Single origin chocolate is definitely a different, better breed and anything in this line - all unique and all very distinctive, flavorful and positively gorgeous - are good choices. Also, remember that any recipe that calls for 70% could use even the 65% Santander too - Get into the 55% Santander and it's more of a semi-sweet use, but let me tell you, it's the most muscular semi I've ever tasted. These are all wonderful eating or cooking chocolates - truly the earmark of a good chocolate product. If you cannot stomach eating it, but it taste "adequate" in recipes, pass it by.
This is truly amazing chocolate. |
14,297 | I have tried using these traps from time to time for over a year unsuccessfully. But, after reading some of the reviews here for the other Victor Out O' Sight trap, I realized I wasn't setting them right. And, I caught one mole yesterday, and another today. So, I'm excited that I've finally come up with a way to catch them.
I'm sharing my technique for setting them in the hope it will help you:
1) Find an active tunnel. You can just walk around the yard and step down on raised areas, then come back later and see if they get raised up again.
2) Cut a couple of scrap pieces of wood that are 3/8" or 1/2" thick by four or five inches long, by say, five or six inches high. You'll use these to hold the grooves you cut for the trap legs when you push down on the soil.
4) Get a garden tool that can cut down through any roots, like a hatchet, or a flat-blade tool with wooden shaft and a handle (don't know what you call it, but that's what I use).
5) Get a tool you can use to find the center of the tunnel. I use a discarded mop handle that I drilled a hole in the end of and glued in a six inch nail.
6) Probe the tunnel to approximately locate it's center, and just leave it sticking in the center for now.
7) Set the trap on the ground along the tunnel near where you will place it so you can see how far apart to cut the grooves for the trap legs.
8) Cut the first groove for the trap legs as clean as you can; then, feel down in the cut line to locate the tunnel. Use a finger to locate the tunnel.
9) Stick one of your scrap pieces of wood in this groove, and tap it down firmly.
10) Then cut the other groove so the other legs will go in it.
11) Again, run a finger down in this cut to locate the other end of the tunnel. You do this because the tunnel may turn some, and you'll need to turn your trap too.
12) Stick the other scrap piece of wood in it.
11) Now, step down with your heel between the two pieces of scrap wood. You want this dirt to be very firm. I do this, then also tap down with the end of my flat blade tool to get it extra firm. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
12) Next, wiggle the two pieces of wood back and forth, and in and out to open up the two grooves a little, them pull them out.
13) Set the trap into the two grooves while observing the clearance between the ground and the traps bottom lever. You don't want it to contact the ground or you'll spring the trap. Incidentally, you should have the trap safety ON at this point.
14) Now, use a finger to feel the clearance between the ground and the lever; and, push and/or tap the trap down slowly until it is only 1/16th inch or so from the ground.
15) Release the trap's safety. I repeat: Release the trap's safety. I seem to frequently forget to do this.
16) Take some loose soil or leaves and just drop them around the trap legs to prevent sunlight from getting down to the tunnel.
17) GOOD LUCK! |
14,298 | Salty, too hard to bite, and tastes like chewing on a salt lick. With so much sodium, this is totally a terrible choice. Do not buy! |
14,299 | I have never tasted such a poor excuse for a cocoa drink. It has such a bad aftertaste that I checked the box to see if I ordered sugarfree by mistake! I will toss this and chalk it up to a loss but if you are reading this, dont buy this brand. Its downright awful! |
