16,900 | It was better than expected. I sent it as a gift to my cousin and she was very happy with the presentation and the items in it. |
16,901 | I often find with decaf coffee to be somewhat on the weak side: not in this product. The coffee had a strong grip, but not bitter, and had a smooth rounded experience when a creamer is used (note this coffee works well with a soy creamer). You do not need to apply any extra heap of coffee to compensate for a 'decaf' option! With such a strong grip, I would not recommend milk or low fat milk as you might as well drink it as is! |
16,902 | I love the cranberry bar. It has the right about of crunch and sweetness. I eat them midday and it keeps me full until dinner. Some people were complaining that the nuts in the bars were a bit stale. I didn't run across that problem, but they were sticky (just pop them in the fridge and they should be fine). You can buy them at kroger but they are much cheaper at amazon (almost half the price if you get a subscription).
I also had the dark chocolate cherry bar but I didn't buy it from amazon. It's really sweet and not to my liking. It's a good replacement if you normally eat a candy bar but that's just my opinion.
Go order some you won't regret it. |
16,903 | These are my Mom's favorites.
She's 88, and has returned to lifes simple pleasures.
She looks forward to a lollipop after dinner every night,
and so far these are her favorites! |
16,904 | Cinnamon Mentos are Great. The only thing that would make them better is if they were sold in the small boxes. |
16,905 | My husband is gluten sensitive, dairy sensitive, and diabetic. And, he has a sweet tooth. We were thrilled to find that these candies are allowed with all of his eating issues. Plus, they are GOOD! Thanks to Amazon for carrying them. |
16,906 | I ordered these for my sister in law who found some in a liquidation store and fell in love with them. Our online search brough us to amazon so she had me order 10 bags of these. These are just like home made like back in the day. |
16,907 | True Orange is awesome. It is dehydrated oranges, with no chemicals or additives. It can be used for any recipe that requires oranges, and it can also be used for flavorings. There are so many wonderful recipes that are made with True Orange.
Not only does True Orange make some delectable recipes and can be used for mouthwatering flavors, but it has a long shelf life. Fresh oranges only last a certain amount of time.
True Orange is truly wonderful. There are indeed some recipes that True Orange (or True Lemon or True Lime) will make or break. |
16,908 | I adore white chocolate. I admit the price of Milka is a
bit high(well, alot high) but if you don't pig out on
any candy all the time, the price is worth it. Problem is
when you finish one bar, next day you want another one.
And forget eating half a bar and putting away the other
half for any length of time. You can always find it. |
16,909 | Great tasty beef jerky, hands down the the best on the market. I eat a lot of jerky and snackmasters is by far the superior brand in the jerky market. I have been a customer for 10 years and have never been disappointed. |
16,910 | This is the best kimchi I have ever purchased on-line. Of course, it is not as good as my mom's kimchi but it is very close. Being half Korean, a former military kid and a kimchi eater since I was 2 years old (I have pictures!), I have to say that this kimchi is very, very good. The only downside is the portions. The bag is small. Only enough for, maybe, three servings but if you don't have ready access to kimchi (my mom is 75 years old with arthritis in both hands) then try this kimchi. The package arrived quickly and was packed well. Also, please remember that food, like beauty, is in the eye/palate of the beholder/taster. What tastes good to you may not to someone else. I have to go, I am ordering two more bags of kimchi right now. |
16,911 | For some stupid reason I've never thought to look online for these! I just bought 2 big mamas thinking I was grabbing the tijuanas but it's all good cause I just found these. Im tooscared to buy the big jars I see in the grocery store that look like these cause in the jar it looks gross lol. During a lunch break with one of my coworkers I grabbed 3 or 4 tijuanas & when we got back to work I started munching on one & everyone was looking at me laughing with their noses turned up but my girl was willing to try one & she LOVED it!! Every now & then she would even stop & buy me one on her way to work. So glad I could turn someone on to these. Didn't mean to write a book but I'm so glad I don't have to grab 3 at a time at different gas stations anymore. Will be ordering asap!! |
16,912 | I've always like Sugar-in-the-Raw but it is usually too expensive. Amazon has this priced very reasonably and I've been buying it regularly. I also try to avoid any food with hi-fructose corn syrup, and this sugar is what I like. |
16,913 | Received the 2lb Bag of the FISHER FROSTED WALNUTS a month ago. Today was the first opportunity I got to taste and use them. Much to my surprise and disappointment the nuts were old and rancid. What a waste. Do not recommend. |
16,914 | I have a 5 month old Australian shepherd and she could not get the treats out--we couldn't either. What we finally ended up doing was boring a hole at the bottom; luckily my husband had the tools to make a smooth hole big enough for her kibbles. It now works very well as a treat dispenser, but my dog doesn't really play with it like a toy. |
16,915 | I love the taste of the protein chips and the high quality ingredients that were used. It's the perfect way to get protein and fiber at the same time. The chips arrived very quickly and in perfect condition. I highly recommend this product. |
16,916 | Cal's Tupelo honey is the best I've ever tasted. I have certain food allergies and Cal's tupelo does not cause an allergic reaction like other types of honey I've tried such as clover honey. I've been buying this honey for years at health food stores--now it's only available online through Amazon. Squeeze bottle seal could be better--honey sometimes seeps out of top seal on the squeeze bottle which makes the jar sticky when it arrives. |
16,917 | Very easy to prepare. There is no need to rinse first. Very healthy alternative to pasta and rice. I would recommend this to all my friends. |
16,918 | This is sort of what I imagine apple cider and gelatin would turn out as. If you want to pay $5.00 for low-cal jello, then this is for you. It tastes good...it's just waaaaaay over-priced for what it is. Definitley more apple jelly than apple butter...but not even that. |
16,919 | Talk about a versatile new product. Drink it hot on a winter morning, drink it iced on a summer afternoon, mix it with your favorite coctail, add it to a marinade, combine it with your your best herbs- I love it all! It's smooth and almost silky texture and lack of tannins make it great for anything. How has it taken so long to make it to the states! |
16,920 | I bought a jar of this arrabiata sauce in my local supermarket. It's the best commercial sauce from a jar, at least that I've ever come across. I regularly travel to Italy and DO know what good sauce is like. Maybe the other reviewers were talking about a different flavor in this series. This one's got a liitle bite to it and it's thick and rich with flavor. I'd recommend you give it a try. |
16,921 | Unfortunately they do not use much pearl powdery stuff on these. They are uneven with some having tails, the luster is flat and on most there is nothing but an ugly yellowish sugar ball showing through. I could have done better elsewhere and next time I will. |
16,922 | I was starting to think that Snyder and I just didn't share the same idea about what's good in snack flavors. I have tried several of their other pretzel pieces flavors (Buffalo Wing and Honey Mustard) and was very disappointed. I have to say, that these Cheddar Cheese flavor pieces are not just good, but spectacularly good! They have a very rich, buttery cheese flavor with pleasant yeasty aftertaste. These are totally addictive. It's very easy to munch through the entire large bag in one setting. |
16,923 | Don't expect the full octane sugary stuff, but paired with some tequila, ice and fresh lime juice I really enjoyed this! |
16,924 | You are reading the review for a reason. The reviews speak for themselves. This stuff is second to none. Buy it. End of story. |
16,925 | I love these and I'm glad SeaSnax is making them with olive oil and not canola or vegetable oil. I'm a paleo/primal eater and try to avoid all those nasty oils. These are perfect when you are craving something salty like chips or nuts, and the entire package only has 14 calories! It's a great way to get you day's supply of iodine without having to eat other seaweed products and seasonings, which I have tried but have never found something I like to eat on a consistent basis. |
16,926 | Have been drinking this coffee for a while. I use each K-cup twice -- to fill my travel mug -- I make one with an 8oz cup and use it again with a 6oz cup. |
16,927 | Excellent dark (dunkel) whole grain rye, not dry, does not fall apart. Arrived double boxed and intact. Would recommend highly. Definitely not anywhere close to soft, spongy, American whitebread. Good source of fiber and protein. Will re-order and try all their products. |
16,928 | I'd keep these on hand for emergency food prep only, the exact situation we faced (snowed in, couldn't get to store). Luckily, we still had power during the snowstorm so we made the product as instructed.
One tip here: remember that microwave ovens all cook at different temps and speeds, adjust cooking time accordingly. This should be gooey and not hard as a rock. We had two packages and had to test one before finding the right cooking time.
The taste: Totally disappointing. While we all wanted a sweet treat, this barely met our needs, providing only calories and some energy, making me qualify it as suitable for "emergencies only". As far as providing a taste of sweetness, yes, this was fine. However, it fell far short of the "warm delight" promised by the cover photo and title. There was a decided hint of preservatives and some unpleasant flavors, creating an unsatisfactory culinary experience. No one expects a microwave mix to be high cuisine but this was barely palatable.
We don't have gourmet standards by any means but this was not liked by anyone in the family, although the adults managed to eat our portions. The kids? Forget it.
However, although I couldn't find them here, we DID try some mixes during the snowstorm that exceeded our expectations. One was Better Homes and Gardens Chocolate Chip mix. If you can find it, get it. It not only came in a lovely container but included the bonus of a year's subscription to BH & Gardens for only $5.00, a bargain rate (optional, not required to subscribe to buy mix ). The mix in container cost $5.99 so we felt this was a better use of our money, leaving us with a reusable and microwavable container and tasty cookies for the $5.99. If we wanted, we had a monthly magazine for another $5.00. You do the math and conduct a taste test and I think you'll agree that "warm delights" aren't so delightful. Just a thought. |
16,929 | This is a surprisingly good product. I waited a few months before opening my first out of fear. The 100% whole wheat bread came out so soft in my zojirushi bread maker. I was surprised. The wheat has a bit of bitterness just like any other whole wheat bread. But thats the only hitch. Both my 7 month old and 3.5 year old at it happily as myself. I do like the company a lot better now. |
16,930 | I found these when I was on vacation in the Bahamas. They taste like a graham cracker and shortbread cookie combined. Great simple cookie. I have had trouble finding in the States. I am glad I found them on Amazon. I can't wait to order the chocolate flavors. |
16,931 | This is what I will be eating in heaven or what I will be tempted with in hell. They are the BEST gummy bears EVER!!! We have to keep them in a sealed container in the kitchen because when we had them in the living room the disappeared to quick, forcing yourself to get up and walk into the kitchen to get more atleast makes you think twice about eating to many. To bad it isn't a totally effective deterant. |
16,932 | Got a new Keurig coffee maker and wanted to buy some tea to brew in it. Twinings peppermint tea is great...even my 14 year old daughter likes it. |
16,933 | The drink is nothing exemplary in my opinion. Its taste is tolerable but nothing that made me want to order more of the product. While it is 100% juice and contains 100% of one's recommended daily amount of vitamin C, I could not agree that it had a "great taste and refreshment" about it.
The drink also left a little bitter aftertaste. However, this was not a big deal.
The can was probably more negative to me than anything. I am not certain why is was necessary to use an aluminum can for 8.5 ounces. Of course, this is switchbev's choice. However, I think it a poor one for our environment. |
16,934 | My family loves the entire line of Kind Healthy Grains products! These natural ingredients products are great tasting and great for you, especially if you are on the look out for gluten free food. I found the Cinnamon Oat Clusters delicious coming in close as a first compared to the Maple Walnut Clusters which currently lines my cupboards.
I feel this product is a great addition to add to my yogurt, to eat with milk as a breakfast cereal, and it's also a good stand along snack. It's got a great crunch, the texture is desirable, and the flavor is pretty tasty. My 3 year old which a picky eater loves this stuff so you can be sure that I'll probably be taking advantage of the awesome subscribe and save deal that Amazon.com offers!
If you are wanting to try it before subscribing, you can find this product in most stores. I was thrilled to find at my local Market of Choice grocery store and am so glad to see it here on Amazon. |
16,935 | I grew up on these noodles but cannot find them in the grocery store. I was nervous about buying them online but they ship quickly and taste as good as I remember! |
16,936 | I love to keep some of this in my cupboard because first of all, my family loves it and secondly, it gets a giggle each time I show anyone. I grew up with this dessert in the UK and thought nothing of the name till I moved to the USA....makes me giggle now too....ha ha |
16,937 | Very good and I really love the disks of dark chocolate. My only criticism is that you need to use milk instead of just water. Just my personal preference, and maybe I'll try mixing it with an "instant" product. |
16,938 | I did not not like Streit's chicken soup mix.....It did not have the good taste of Carmel Chicken soup mix...... |
16,939 | I'm new to Gluten Free/Dairy Free/ Soy Free Food.
I found this Oatmeal on Amazon and ordered all three different tastes. Really tasty flavor and I love it. Eat this now every morning. But I put only hot water on it and let it sit for a few minutes. I like the taste better then cold water and microwave, which tastes stale to me. |
16,940 | One of the best tasting crackers ever! Even if I wasn't gluten free, I would really like these. Flavorful, light and very crunchy. I eat them with cheese, tuna, avacado or plain. They handle that need for crunch and are nutritionally a good choice! |
16,941 | Moist and soft. Great rum cake. I been to their bakery in Key West and try out every flavor they offer. I love the classic, banana and key lime. Just enough rum but not over powering. You have to try it! |
16,942 | WAS ON AMAZON PRIME FOR A SHORT TIME, WILL BUY AGAIN WHEN IT RETURNS. SHIPPING TOO HIGH OTHERWISE. |
16,943 | the package is a very good quatity wize , but the size of the piece itself is small which would not give the effect needed . |
16,944 | These are so good!! Some of the best chocolate coffee beans I have ever had!!! This seller is wonderful as well. Product arrived within 2 days!!! I would strongly recommend this product!!! ENJOY!!! |
16,945 | These are real meat, not that terrible tasting slim-jim jerky fake meat garbage... From the very first bite the taste from these old wisconsin snack sticks is ooooh sooooo satisfying for any meaty snack craving you might get. Mmmmmmm
Old wisconsin is the only meat for me... YUM! |
16,946 | Our little dog Bean loves his Zuke's treats. They are small, moist and perfect for training. Bean is very picky about food and treats, but he will always sit down and roll over for these perfect little bites.
I highly recommend them. Too bad they don't make dog food as well. |
16,947 | Could not find this product in stores anywhere. Found it on Amazon, received it quickly, husband loves it! |
16,948 | I was glad to be able to find this product on Amazon. My 5 year old son loves lemonade and country time is the only one he will drink. I hope you continue to carry this product.
I was wondering if you could carry pink lemonade. |
16,949 | So this is what I have been missing all of these years. Delicious BUT it does take a HALF AN HOUR to cook! |
16,950 | It's very hard to find this product, at all, in the store. This was a great find and a great deal. |
16,951 | This syrup is not quite as good as it's competitor, but it is ok. It makes a decent latte. It is priced better, and I will probably buy it again. |
16,952 | I love this tea....on auto delivery. As an Oregonian, I love that this is a local product. |
16,953 | I love the lavazza brand of coffee. I liked this roast ok, but i would recommend buy the rosa over this roast. |
16,954 | I have been purchasing this cat food for my persian since he was a kitten. He is the pickiest cat I have EVER seen, refuses to eat chicken, salmon, or tuna as a treat. He sticks his nose up to the food that was recommended by the vet. And HE LOVES this food. I had him on just the basic Royal Canin, but he was coughing up mutliple hairballs in a day that I couldn't keep up with cleaning them. I swtiched over to the intense hairball shortly after, and now, years later I can honestly say he has coughed up maybe two hairballs at the most. It's a little expensive in the pet store, so online its at least ten dollars cheaper. I did see corn as a large ingredient, but its been amazing for my cat and I will not switch to anything else... not like he would eat it anyways! |
16,955 | These taste like Bisquick with macaroni and cheese powder mixed in. That's probably more or less what they are. If these are restaurant-style, I shudder to imagine this restaurant in my mind. I bet it serves potato flakes and Jell-O instant cheesecake too. There are other cheddar biscuit mixes out there that at least come close to the flavor of the ones at Red Lobster. These come close to the flavor of cheddar sand. (I don't like them.) |
16,956 | At fifty I do like many things that are au courant. Velveeta is yesterday, and is comfort to me. From a time if I could get a package, macaroni noodles, and some milk, I might survive the month. It isn't surprising I use this to make a dip for corn chips, nor is it particularly earth shattering that after surgeries a nice bowl of mac and cheese calmed tummies that hadn't eaten in twenty or more days trying to come back to normal.
So what can I offer. Freda Vandervort taught me to make marcaroni and cheese
and it was simple. I still prefer it to grainy versions with expensive cheeses. Here's the scoop.
Buy some good macaroni, large, and cook it until just tender. I usually make about three cups cooked, one uncooked. Drain put back in the pan. To that add about a cup of milk, a stick of butter, about a cup of chopped Velveeta. Cook and melt, stir and if you want it yummier add half milk, half cream or use half and half. I've taken this after cooking straight to the table. But I've also taken it, put it in a baking dish, shredded cheddar over the top or bread crumbs and baked awhile. And added this or that.
But frankly I just like it sometimes and appreciate the product when my tummy is thinking of days gone by. My daughter today stated she loves macaroni and cheese, as I served it, so I feel good about that. |
16,957 | i'm watching my calorie intake - and after reading all the reviews, i had to try this.
its truly amazing.
my favorite is to add 1 tbs. to about 1/2 cup vanilla fat free yogurt for breakfast. SO good! |
16,958 | I had ordered the spaghetti & it was wonderful, so I ordered the pasta. I knew it was coming in a "bulk" order, but I didn't expect it just thrown in a box! It comes in a large cardboard shipping box. When I opened it, there was a flimsy plastic bag with the 10 lbs of pasta. No advertising, no individual boxes. The bag was ripped in several places and the pasta fell all over like those annoying packaging peanuts! I like the product, but I just didn't know I was going to have to find several storage bags to keep it in. Just be aware! |
16,959 | Some folks listen to waves crashing on CD. Others pop pills. When I need a brief escape from this wild world, I gnaw on some Twizzlers. Lightly sweet and easy to pack around, Twizzlers are one of the best candies out there. I don't even have to mention that they're a low-fat delicacy, but some healthnuts do need a sugary fix sometimes, and Twizzlers can get the job done without totally throwing off a diet.
Highly recommended to anyone who loves life. These little treasures are the perfect little break from reality. |
16,960 | These bars have a good combination of nuts, are low glycemic and a satisfying snack for in-between meals or when meals are delayed. Wonderful for gluten/dairy intolerance. They travel well too. |
16,961 | The flavor is pretty good. It's sweet, tart, and tangy. The calories are okay, 135 calories in an 8.3 oz can. You wouldn't want to drink a lot of it every day, but 135 calories is fine for once or twice a day. The fizz is light, similar to Fanta, which is something I really like about this product. The only thing I don't like is the taste that the vitamin c adds. The extra vitamin c gives it an aftertaste similar to red bull and other energy drinks. I think this product would taste a lot better without it, and I don't see any real value in having it. Vitamin C is one of the easiest vitamins to get. There aren't a lot of people in the modern world running around with scurvy.
The other concern is price. This stuff is very expensive, almost $1 per 8.3 oz can. The idea here is suppose to be that this is a soda replacement. At that price, I don't think so. A 12 pack of soda (with 12 oz cans) typially runs from $3 - $5. The Switch costs more than double that. If this product wants to compete with the soda market they really need to bring the price down.
If you like this, just get some low sodium Pellegrino and some concentrated juices. You can mix your own for a lot less and not have the vitamin c aftertaste. |
16,962 | So if you're worried about getting enough protein but are grossed out by slim fast and the like... these are perfect. The other reviewers aren't kidding when they say it tastes just like chocolate milk. Very tasty, much better than any other protein drink I've tried. Sweet but not too sweet, and very chocolatey. I want to try the vanilla flavor, but I like chocolate so much I'm going to wait until I get sick of these first. TRY THIS! You won't regret it. |
16,963 | The smell was horrible and they reminded me of squid. I just could not stomach them. They also have a rubbery texture making them difficult to eat. |
16,964 | I agree with the previous reviews. I bought this believing Kikkoman to be a reliable brand name and was horrifically wrong. It smelled like a mustard sauce as soon as I opened it and I too thought that cooking it would alter/improve the flavor. This product is nothing like any curry I have ever tried and I have tried many. Stick with what you know - avoid this product if you don't want to be disappointed. |
16,965 | I am a coffee connoi-sewer. :)
I say sewer because I drink a freaking large amount of coffee!!
Oh, and I am particular.
Since I drink so much coffee, I was looking for a coffee roaster with
good prices who sold in bulk. Enter 'Coffee Bean Direct'. I first went
to their website, but didn't like the costly shipping. Then I noticed I
could purchase from them, through the great and powerful Amazon, with free
shipping!!
I bought the 5-lb Italian Roast Espresso, whole bean and French Roast.
Expecting the worst, I was pleased when I opened the bags. The coffee was
fresh and still had the coffee bean oil on the beans.
I ground some up and brewed it. The aroma is incredible and full. I can smell
it coming from the kitchen, in my bedroom upstairs when I wake up.
The flavor is rich and full, but smooth, without much acidic bitterness. The
Italian Roast has just a touch of sweet aftertaste, as it should. Very similar
to Star Bucks, but much less expensive.
The French roast could be a little bit richer flavor, but as it is, for the price,
you will be pleased.
I've ordered more than twice now. And have just ordered the Peruvian Italian Roast.
My phalanges are crossed. Now if they would just make a German or Turkish roast.
But then, I'm just dreaming now...
Enjoy |
16,966 | I did place an order with Amazon for this particular item, but it was canceled because the supplier at the time was not able to provide it (it was not PetFoodDirect - I have had excellent service from them through Amazon). I managed to order the 4Eva through another source, and the kitties like it. It was something I wanted because the majority of BFF (and Soulistic, made by the same company) are tuna based (other fish added too, but mostly tuna and fish). Once in a while it would be nice to have something else; we get tired of the same thing every meal too! In general the BFF foods are a good choice - better quality, not outrageous prices. |
16,967 | So, the concept of this is actually pretty good in my opinion. You have this little bottle, and you add as much of the flavor as you want to a glass of water to meet your tastes.
With this flavor "Sweet Tea" I think you have to really really like sweet tea in order to appreciate this. I like sweet tea, but even at the lowest dose suggestion I could never get a taste that really suited me. I tried a couple other times with less (than recommended) and still was not able to get it to my liking.
I can appreciate that this will be a product that some will absolutely love. But, I also think it is one that some people (like me) just don't like. I would be curious to try other flavors though. Maybe one of them is more to my liking. |
16,968 | The delicious ingredients of Raw Organic Dark Chocolate L.O.V.E. Cup with Yacon Syrup-1 ozs. / Raw Organic Dark Chocolate L.O.V.E. Cup with Agave Nectar-1 ozs. are simply Cacao, Yacon Syrup, and Himalayan salt. These are packaged by [...]301-703-4116 and sold here on Amazon. Yacon is probably my most favorite sweetener but because of its expense, I don't use it exclusively. In my opinion is the healthiest sweetener as well as the best-tasting sweetener. It is wonderful to see it offered in this chocolate. I ordered 7 cups and they arrived quickly and in great condition. Out of the wrapper and papercup, they weighed in at about 1.04oz. Each had more cacao nibs on the top than shown on the photo and as I am not a fan of the nibs, I knocked mine off into the disposal and just eat the creamy part. Some chocolate without sunflower lecithin or soy lecithin can have an inferior texture but these are Raw Organic Dark Chocolate L.O.V.E. cups with Yacon Syrup are creamy with a superb texture. You don't get the cane sugar roller coaster rush but the flavor is delicious and satisifies that I-want-a-chocolate-treat craving. Great job Natural Zing!
Here is an excerpt from an article by Sirova Raw Foods about Yacon
Yacon Root Powder: Health Benefits of this Andean Superfood
Yacon, also known as Apple of the Earth, is a lot more deserving of its nickname than regular potatoes, whose French name "pommes de terre" literally means "apples of the earth". Indeed, the yacon root, native of the Andes, actually tastes quite similar to a traditional apple, and is a lot sweeter as well.
But, is its sweetness incompatible with its low-glycemic properties? Not at all. Its sweet taste is due to its high concentration of inulin, a sugar which is not recognized by our body, and therefore does not affect it the way regular sugar does. After ingesting yacon root, the sugars are simply eliminated without causing spikes in blood sugar levels. Also, yacon root is quite low in calories compared to main sources of sugar, and therefore does not contribute to weight gain in the same proportions.
Yacon is also quite common in Andean remedies, and for good reason. Amongst many studies:
A Chinese study found that "the extract from the leaves of Smallantus sonchifolius (yacon) was found to show potent anti-diabetic activity,"
An Argentinian study determined that "yacon syrup is a good source of fructooligosaccharides and its long-term consumption produced beneficial health effects on obese pre-menopausal women with insulin resistance,"
A Swiss study concluded that "yacon markedly accelerates colonic transit in healthy individuals. Due to the low caloric content of yacon, the root could be a useful treatment in constipated diabetics or obese patients."
Yacon root is also thought to be prebiotic, and helpful in helping recolonize the digestive system with healthy bacteria in cases of bacterial imbalance.
According to David Wolfe in his book "Superfoods: The Food and Medicine of the Future", "As a prebiotic, yacon is good for digestion, stimulates positive colon health, and helps with the absorption of calcium, magnesium, and B vitamins. Yacon helps to regulate friendly intestinal flora, and espeically improves the growth of certain probiotics (...), thus helping to reduce constipation. Yacon root contains significant quantities of potassium and antioxidants. Because of its high antioxidant value, yacon is beneficial in reducing free-radical damage in the body, especially in the colon." |
16,969 | I was not a chocolate fan, not at all in the past until I taste the Lindt Lindor white truffles. The delicious and silky taste just beyond explanation. Pamper yourself one of this you will hook on it quickly! Now I am looking everywhere to stock Lindo white in my house! |
16,970 | I have been gluten free for 13 years, and am so happy that there is so much more out there to eat. The fact that General Mills reformulated Chex to make them GF is fabulous! First main stream company to realize the huge need for GF products; hopefully many more will follow their lead!
I just tried Udi's products, and these Blueberry muffins are FANTASTIC!! I can't believe that they are dairy free as well! Most GF bread products have to be heated, or toasted to be edible-these are perfect right out of the package! I dare anyone to be able to tell that they are gluten free! Totally moist, flavorful, and filling. My only issue is the expense-$2/muffin is outrageous, and the cost will prohibit many celiacs from enjoying Udi's products. I know that they will be a rare treat for me, although I keep thinking about them because they are the best gf product I have EVER ate! Great job UDI'S, now just make them affordable. |
16,971 | This product is very helpful in training my dogs. I find that it's much more convienant then treats. I will certainly be ordering more. |
16,972 | The Jet drinks are unbelievable, they are so natural tasting, full of REAL fruit juices not one ounce of artificial taste in them. That mixed with the tea, which I don't taste, makes them so healthy! I had gotten a Mango one at a culinary school and went online to find if I could purchase a box and have made them for the whole family in the blender. I have gotten alot of servings from one box Very Satisfied!!! |
16,973 | I am a new espresso machine owner and am experimenting to find the best (least bitter) yet strong espresso.. I tried Cafe Bustelo which is decent and an Italian brand from grocery store. This brand is so far the smoothest yet still strong which is important to me. I also use in French Press when I am in the mood for good ole regular coffee. |
16,974 | This is the best GF bread I have tasted. My daughter had her first PB&J in months and nearly cried. I have been eating it a slice at a time with nothing and have been enjoyed it so much. I have even had to slap the hands of non GF people in the house ( son and husband) . Amazing is all I can say. Will be on auto ship for sure! |
16,975 | just the right amount of hot. just the right amount of spice. just the right amount of vinegar undertones. the best words i can use to share the taste of this sauce with you is that it is like a-1 had a baby with worcestershire sauce and that baby had an affair with a bowl of mild-hot peppers and, before being bottled, asked balsamic vinegar to join the dance. for years i had to sweet talk different restaurants into selling me a bottle and usually just ended up taking advantage of the mercy shown to me as they slipped me one without charge. the day i discovered amazon and roland and mexgrocer joined forces and made my bottle of yummy available to buy directly, i felt like a child on christmas morning. it is nothing less than one of the best sauces from a bottle i have ever tasted. while i enjoy making many sauces from scratch (i.e. black bean sauce, tsuyu, ketjap manis, etc.), i readily admit that my counter would not be perfect complete without my beloved tabasco, cajun power garlic sauce, red boat fish sauce, sambal oelek, zingerman's oils and vinegars, mitoku organic mikawa mirin, organic bluegrass soy sauce, dragonfly super premium flavored oyster sauce, koon chun hoisin, sriracha, made in mexico or made in france maggi sauce, lea & perrins worcestershire, and finally a continuous supply of... drumroll please... roland balsamic hot pepper sauce. yes, i know i just went a bit overboard on you with my counter list"ing", but now you see how the simple thought of re-ordering this sauce pushes me into the way-too-excited hard core foodie stratosphere. :-) thank you one million times over amazon and roland and mexgrocer! |
16,976 | hard to chew, didn't like it. Bought 5 lb packet, nobody in family is interested... wastage of money |
16,977 | I first saw these in Dubai. It was the best Chocolate I ever had. I bought a bunch to bring home but didn't have a whole lot of luck finding it here in the States. Then I saw this on Amazon. I ordered it as a surprise for my husband. It's a little pricey but worth every dime. |
16,978 | Our kitty seems to be partial to the Friskies pink can: salmon and beef. This brand, though more expensive, did not seem to generate the enthusiasm that she has for the Friskies. She actually walked away and left this sitting. Maybe this would have generated more active gulping in the cold winter months (she's an outdoor cat) or maybe her tastes are just more pedestrian?
The catfood has a pleasant color, looks fresh and smells OK. It does generate a little of its own juice.
Surprising that she wasn't more interested in this well touted chicken catfood. Who knows-maybe she just prefers fish???
Who knows what lurks in the minds of kitties........ |
16,979 | While this kheer does not have a strong flavor, it was very good. It comes with loose rice and 2 packets, one with sugar and one with spices and nuts. The packet of sugar seemed quite large to me so I only used 1/2. I figured that I can always add more sugar if it needed it but it did not. My family is trying to limit our sugar consumption. In my view, 1/2 the sugar seems to allow the flavor of the spices and milk to come out more. Bottom line, the flavor is good and you can adjust the sugar as it comes separate in a package. I would buy again. Directions say to add 4 cups milk and cook for 40 minutes. Ingredients: rice, sugar, almonds, pistachios, raisins, spices |
16,980 | We ordered the Almond Apricot, Almond Coconut, and the Mango Macadamia.
We actually liked them in the order listed.
I think we will only order Almond Apricot again.
They were good! |
16,981 | I've tried this and the Chocolate Peanut Butter. The Chocolate Peanut butter is too sweet for me, but it's tasty. A friend gave me a couple of packets of each flavor. I made each using skim milk (it's what I had), using a decent ice-crushing blender (Oster, with 6 blades).
This one has the same great flavor of a Starbucks Frappuccino, maybe even a little bolder and sweeter; but you don't get that layer of flavorless ice on top when you're half way done. It was more like a milkshake, all the way down! And after drinking one, you can definitely tell there's some caffeine as well. I like the Espresso flavor so much that I subscribed to the 25 packs at 6 month intervals, so I can keep this as a Saturday morning habit.
You could probably also use vodka for the liquid, and make a very tasty "Espresso Martini" flavored frozen drink!
Note that the nutritional information is for one serving. Each packet makes two servings. |
16,982 | These delightfully tasting onions is what makes the difference in a vodka gibson.I used to have regular onions in my gibsons and they were ok, but having a bartender make me one with these onions showed me the difference an onion can make. Glad that I walked into that bar..... |
16,983 | It was wonderful, the chocolate was smooth and not waxy like hershey's chocolate. It tasted great and I loved the little bars they are perfect for sharing with little children so you dont give them too much sugar. All in all A great product. |
16,984 | Delicious and comes with a tea ball! I will definitely be purchasing more for the holidays, as these make fantastic gift items! :) |
16,985 | We feed our baby this Wholesome Breakfast at any time of the day, not just for breakfast. We're happy she's getting a good balance of vitamins and minerals. Most jarred baby food is pretty light on the calories and nutrition, but the plain cereals that are fortified with essential vitamins/minerals are so boring and don't train a baby to enjoy different flavors. We've been mixing cereal into our baby's food to enhance the nutrition, but that's inconvenient and messy. This Wholesome Breakfast provides the best of both worlds: the vitamins/minerals of a fortified cereal but with the stronger flavors of a real food. Also, our baby is a picky eater, so we're thrilled to find something she likes that's more substantial than Puffs! |
16,986 | I'd never tasted coconut milk and made the purchase because so many of the recipes in a recent cookbook purchase required coconut milk. I chose the Roland Coconut Milk based on the reviews and because it is organic. Well, I received my order a week ago and while I've not used the milk in any recipes, I'm hooked. I followed the advice of other reviewers and dilute the milk with a can of water and store in a glass quart pitcher. The only mishap was that I first used cold purified water so the milk wasn't smooth. In recent batches I heat the purified water to room temperature or a little warmer and then mix it with the milk. I've found the consistency to be much better.
Also, many reviewers reported that some of the cans in their shipment were dented or otherwise damaged. The company must have corrected this issue because mine arrived in a tight fitting box with no damage. |
16,987 | I'm a big fan of Blue Diamond brand Almonds. I really like the bold flavors, Habanero BBQ and Lime & Chili. I've never seen the Jalapeno Smokehouse flavor at the local grocery store so when I saw them on Amazon I decided to buy them.
I'm pleased to say that I wasn't disappointed. This is right up there with my favorite flavors. It has just enough heat and jalapeno flavor with just a little bit of smoke. To me, these have almost as much heat as the Habanero flavor. Which isn't a bad thing. I like spicy.
I would defiantly recommend these if you like the Bold line of Blue Diamond Almonds. |
16,988 | This makes a very thoughtful gift for just about anyone on your christmas shopping list. Delivered on time and packaged well, you can rest assured it will arrive fresh for the holidays. |
16,989 | Love this vinagarette. It is low in calorie, yet not full of chemicals and artificial sweeteners. Great price compared to my local health food store where an 8oz bottle of the same thing is close to $4. |
16,990 | For anyone who is purchasing this product because it was labeled low sodium, do not purchase. I informed customer service that the description needs to be updated but until it is, it has 420 mg of salt per serving which isn't even 'reduced sodium' much less 'low sodium' as that would need to be 140 mg or less per serving.
I did not use the product so I cannot speak to it's rating from that perspective, just didn't want anyone to waste their time if they are watching sodium intake. |
16,991 | I don't really know what else to say about it. It is truly the best herbal tea i have found. My husband isn't even a tea drinker and now he's started drinking it too. It's not just for Christmas time! |
16,992 | These are decent Granola bars to give a try-out. There is not much chocolate flavor, to me it seemed more fiber and peanut butter oriented and that's leaves your mouth a dry after-taste.
One thing that annoyed me is that some peanut butter drops fall off. Just a pet peeve of mine but wanted to point it out for others like me. Dont see why they couldn't just make it a drizzle like the chocolate or inside the bar.
Anyways, overall its got a decent taste and if your in the market for specifically a chocolate and peanut butter Granola bar, you can give this a try-out. Also one thing to consider is these are relatively high in fat for (10% daily sat. fat) and calories (110). |
16,993 | i am a newcomer to the world of basalmic vinegar and its offshoots. while i have purchased a few mid-priced bv's and have enjoyed just about all of them, i know i will never be able to afford the top shelf balsamic. oh, i could buy it one time and enjoy it so much it would ruin the experience of "going back" to the regular balsamic-enter the glaze. this has a syrupy consistancy i can only imagine the really expensive stuff has-it tastes perfect on anything. fresh fruit and vegetables scream to be covered. even my eggs this morning appreciate the sweet, silky bath of this glaze! while a little may go a long way, i can see me blazing through these two bottles in not much time. if you love bv you will enjoy this glaze without having to scrape together enough coins to get the more expensive stuff. it's that good. |
16,994 | There are so many ways this can of natural goodness can be served. I find more ways as time goes along, but I fall back on my favorite. I open the can, drain the liquid in a cup, drink it, yum, pour the beans in a bowl with the bottom lined with crushed organic saltine crackers to absorb moisture, fork on organic sweet pickle relish and chopped ginger (from a jar) and chow down. I don't heat it up, I like it room temp with the relish and ginger cold or just out of the cabinet. I buy as pack of 12, 15-ounce cans a month from Amazon. I used to buy 4 packs of 12 (48 cans - so I wouldn't every run out), but I have found other treats to fill in and I was liking them too much I think. :) |
16,995 | I tried this product solely for the fact it has Wolfgang's name on it. I should have stuck with Timothy's brand. This was way too strong to be labeled a breakfast coffee, more like a dinner coffee. I will not be buying this again, also way too expensive compared to the others. |
16,996 | All 5 of my dogs agree--this is their #1 favorite treat. It is especially good for my seniors as they are able to easily chew these and still get satisfaction. |
16,997 | I placed my order on 8/23 and received my package today 8/27 so we're off to a pretty good start. I haven't used the beans yet but did open the package and WOW! what an amazingly potent aroma, it's intoxicating. I've never used vanilla beans before but am anxious to try them out... and if the aroma have "staying power" I'm sure whatever I use the beans in will smell and taste Simply Irresistible! |
16,998 | I've been a serious black tea drinker my whole life, thanks to a British mom. She bought this tea for me as a christmas present last year. I have since ordered more online. It's seasonal around December but you can still find it here on Amazon or on other websites. I now have a few tins in stock. This is a lovely spiced black tea mix that does very well with some honey and milk or on it's own (it's not too bitter).
A lovely tea for a cold morning or after a long day of work.
love it. will continue to buy more. |
16,999 | I have never ordered this candy before but was unable to find bulk amounts locally. I was a little nervous about the flavor as well as the claim that 2 day shipping was possible. I was so pleased when the package arrived just as claimed, on the 2nd day after my order. I was even more happy when I tasted the gummis and they were delicious and fresh! I'm so excited, I'm ordering more right now! We are using these at my daughter's wedding reception in 2 weeks and I know they will arrive in plenty of time! Thank you!! |
