19,200	The hot cocoa does have a sugar substitute in it, but as far as I could tell, wasn't strong enough to leave that bitter aftertaste you get when they put a lot of it in the ingredients. If you have a very very sophisticated palate perhaps you could taste it a little, but it doesn't take away from the taste of the cocoa, so as far as I'm concerned it wasn't an issue. I would say this is on par with the type of cocoa you'd get in a coffee machine, which is fine, because I don't hate coffee machine cocoa. I have only tried the peppermint so far, and it tasted like peppermint... what can I say? That's what it's supposed to taste like.
19,201	Great flavor, the real thing! Only draw back was the price, it was definitely too high (The same thing in Thailand is less than 1/2 the price). Wish it could 30% cheaper or half some bulk purchase discount, then I'll definitely stock it up since it's such a natural and good-for-you kind of food.
19,202	My dogs love these sweet potato treats. I feed my dogs grain-free diets and other high-end supplements, so of course I wanted a treat that followed our feeding ethic. This is low in protein and fat, so it is gentle on the stomach of puppies and sick dogs alike. My dogs go crazy over these. They love the taste and since these are a little tough, it takes them a bit longer to finish them, which is great because dogs usually swallow treats whole. They are not extremely tough though. Puppies can eat them. Even though the bag does not have an indication to refrigerate after opening, please do so. They will last longer and remain fresher. Plus, you could prevent mold growth. Amazon sells these by far at the most affordable price. Specialty stores sell these treats up to twice as much as Amazon does, so I suggest you buy them from Amazon. If you want a healthy treat, this is the way to go. :)
19,203	I have been a user of this tea for the last five years and even have compared it with several other brands. It keeps coming out the winner! It is truly a great product and makes the best brew for a honest tea lover.
19,204	When I got the bags, I threw them in the washer for an initial wash, since I plan to use them for groceries. When they came out of the wash, 3 of the 6 bags had their designs peeling off. They looked horrid. Kind of like they were leprous or something. The other 3 bags were still fine, so I hung those out to dry while trying to figure out what to do with the 3 bags that were failing. I tried just peeling the rest of the design off by hand, but that was just making a mess and was taking forever. Plus, a couple areas of the design were still stuck on. Eventually, I came up with the brilliant idea of tossing the bags back in the washer to see if a second washing, this time with hot water, would remove the rest of the design. Well, after trying a few different things, I ended up just tossing the 3 bags with peeling designs. They were making a mess and looked absolutely awful, so there was no way I was going to use them. Very disappointed with the product. I'm afraid to use the other 3 bags, because I'm guessing they'll end up the same way soon. Poor quality. I'd rather not have any design than have one that peels...
19,205	I use to be able to buy this in town and when I couldn't find it anymore I was worried. It is the BEST ever and now I dont have to worry about running out. Thank you so much. Will be ordering again soon.
19,206	Our dogs liked them OK...but!~....Greenies Dental Chews for Dogs, Teenie Pack, 96 Chews....they are pricey and our two pooches love ....Veggi Dental Chews ...that's all we buy them now on Amazon of course!~
19,207	This Chai tea has such a great flavor. I drink it year round. In the summer I make iced tea out of it and always keep a container in the refrigerator. Once it cools off outside and I need to warm up I switch to hot tea. I've tried several other brands and always come back to this one. My grocery store stopped carrying the decaf version which I like since I drink so much iced tea in the summer, so I'm happy to see it on Amazon.
19,208	This tea brews an incredibly flavorful, smooth tea. The tea bags are very large - enough for an entire tea pot... almost too big for an individual cup. Tastes great.
19,209	I have used Sportea for years. It is the best--refreshing, with no calories, and great for energy without the lows.
19,210	Nice Job! Day five after I made the order, these items still haven't shipped. This is really pretty poor IMO. I like the product and occasionally purchase it in my local store. It's a good product. I 'm rating the shipping experience.
19,211	I loved this product!! I made sushi using the Sushezi and it came out great!! For me, the ginger is the essential ingredient to finish the sushi. It can be a little thickly cut, but for me, this is not bothersome. I will definitely order this again.
19,212	As a French Roast fan, I bought this brand of K-cup with high expectations, considering the name attached to it. I was disappointed. It has a hearty aroma and full-bodied flavor but leaves a bitter aftertaste. If you're a lover of the more robust roasts, I would recommend trying the Coffee People Kona Blend Island Style, Extra Bold K-Cups for Keurig Brewers (Pack of 50) instead. It is a smooth blend with none of the bitterness that delivers that kick you're likely looking for.
19,213	I was skeptical going in- two tablespoons for 45 calories while regular peanut butter was 180? Yeah, right. So it may be a bit spendy and you DO have to mix it yourself. Small price to pay! Tastes even better than regular peanut butter and I can eat it daily, getting the nutrients of peanuts without the fat and extra calories!! A month later, and I'm almost done with the bag. I'll DEFINITELY be purchasing again.
19,214	I was interested in what Starbucks would do with a lighter roast with vanilla flavor since I like some flavored coffees especially chocolate raspberry. However, I found this roast was still too dark and bitter for me. I tried it black, with creamer alone and with creamer and sugar together and disliked it thorougly in all cases. I made a pot and shared it with friends: Several of my friends enjoyed it thouugh others wouldn't even try it. Overall, if you like Starbucks typical dark roast and like (sweet) vanilla coffee this is likely to be something you will enjoy.
19,215	unlike some of the vanillas you buy at the store this one only has 10% alcohol so it tastes so much better...baked goods are only as good as the products you put in them and this vanilla helps make that difference. there might be even better vanillas out there but this one has satisfied me extremely!
19,216	We first started buying Izze drinks when my wife was pregnant and she was looking for alternatives to soda and coffee. The Izze products were among her favorites -- especially the Black Cherry flavor. The Pomegranate variety is tasty as well, consisting of 70% fruit juice and 30% sparkling water. They make for a refreshing drink, although not a very large one (just over 8 ounces). One thing to note is that these drinks have 80 calories each, so that is something to be aware of. They're better than soda, but are far from calorie-free.
19,217	The winter here in Afghanistan has been colder than anyone can remember and it has snowed here more than it has ever snowed in the last 10 years. One thing that helps keep my bones toasty is this fine quality hot chocolate. I first got turned on to this brand when I took a free sample from a care package at the local Red Cross on post. From the first cup I was hooked. This is the best tasting instant hot cocoa I ever had...ever! After this, I can no longer go back to the less expensive products. Every sip of this cocoa is like being on top of mount Everest with the cold brisk wind flowing through your hair but at the same time a warm fuzzy sensation is circulating throughout your body keeping you warm from the hard mountain top conditions. Yes! It's that good! Try it for yourself.
19,218	I work on a swinging schedule upwards of 80 hours per week. I had always enjoyed seeds and as I saw my waistline growing due to pounding back energy drinks, sugar, anything caffeinated, I grabbed a bag of seeds to keep myself preoccupied and alert while I worked. These seeds truly are a "snacktivity" as they say on every bag. Enjoy every last seed in these big, money saving bags!
19,219	This glazed flavors are tasty and healthier than other sweet snacks. Arrived from Amazon in good condition so have no issues with buying them online. The price is reasonable but still on the high side.
19,220	This is excellent honey with a delicate flavor suited to many uses. I like it in hot tea or simply drizzled on fruit or cereal. It definitely beats the usual products from most grocery stores.
19,221	This coconut is sweet and moist and the preferred brand used in my Grandmother's delicious, buttery, coconut and pecan German Chocolate Cake frosting. Grandma isn't here anymore, but every time I make this frosting for a birthday or any special day I always think of her.
19,222	I like the taste of this sweetener and I am a huge fan of stevia, but my problem with it is that agave is the first ingredient. Now, contrary to popular myth, as someone in the food biz I can say that that does NOT mean it's mostly agave. As you can verify on the FDA website, ingredients are not listed in the order of what they contain most of as most people believe, but they are listed in order of weight...which means if there are 2 ounces of agave in a pack and one ounce of stevia, (I just made that weight up for explanation) then agave will be read first...even is there is a tablespoon of agave and 2 tablespoons of stevia in a packed (again, that amount is used just for explanation...doesn't contain near that much in a packet.). Since stevia weighs next to nothing, it still may very well be the main ingredient, but we do know there is a good deal of agave... and that's my issue. I actually switched to stevia from using agave as a sweetener (although I still use it occasionally.) because of the controversy and studies showing that it may very well have the same weight-gain effects as high fructose corn syrup due to how your body processes it. There are some very well respected doctors such as Dr Mercola who say this. I scoffed at first, until more reports said the same. I haven't made up my mind yet, but in the meantime I cut back on agave so when I bought stevia I didn't expect to find it there. But it's listed first in these packets. Why do they add another sweetener? Stevia is SO sweet that you have to. It takes a few grains to sweeten a drink...there would be nothing in the packet otherwise. However, I perfer to find it cut with erithritol as this does not spike your blood sure, is all natural, and zero calories. I now simply buy straight stevia in order to sweeten my coffee...in liquid form. It's not mixed with anything and is very economical. One drop sweetens an entire cup of coffee and the liquid form means it mixes perfectly. This isn't a bad sweetener...it could be a bit sweeter if I had my say...but my main gripe is I believe they'd have better marketing if they cut it with another natural zero calorie sweetener with less current controversy. For agave lovers, however, it would be the best pick. For me, I'm lukewarm. Now, add to that it has silica...this is not in any other stevia products I've bought. Look, I just want stevia...or a stevia and eriythritol blend...but not a mix of stevia and stuff I don't want. Anyone consuming stevia is likely a label reader so I think this product would do well to tigthen its' belt in order to compete...and by that, I mean stick with cleaner ingredients.
19,223	Very reasonable in price and value. Easily digestable and protein absorption was through the roof! The taste, well, it tastes like dust, but hey, it works! I mixed it slowly in other foods or drinks. I used the hemp chocolate shake to flavor it, but be careful of too much fiber. But it is an excellant product!!!!!
19,224	Last year I decided that I wanted to start eating healthier, to deal with some health issues, to get them under control before they became serious, and would be forced to change my diet. One of the ways I have found in part due to thanks to my father who is a borderline diabetic, he does take meds for it, but it does seem to run really high on his side of the family. He taught me what to look for when making wiser food choices. I knew that I wasn't getting enough fiber in my diet, that according to my father that carboyhydrates turn into sugar, which fiber helps to counterbalance that out, and to limit the amount of sugar that I eat. So, now I read every food label if there is one before I make a food purchase. It does take longer to grocery shop, but in almost a year I have lost 37 pounds, which at least to me is impressive. I know that alot of my weight loss is due to eating healthier, watching what I eat, making healthier food choices. After awhile of doing this it does become a way of life. The scale does NOT lie!! So, I started trying various granola bars, and have found that Kellogg's makes my favorite granola bars as well as other healthy snacks that are also low in carbohydrates, high in fiber, and low in sugar. My father told me to limit the amount of carbohydrates I eat in any given product to less than 20 grams, there are 17 grams in these Special K Chocolately Peanut Butter Granola Bars, there are 4 grams of fiber which is 16% of your daily fiber, so these are definitely a good source of fiber, and my father told me to limit my sugars in any given product to less than 10 grams. These granola bars have 7 grams of sugar. To me they taste almost like a candy bar so that I do not feel deprived. These particular granola bars are chewy, have a chocolate peanutty taste that is not overwhelming. They do leave me feeling satisfied, and they also help to control my appetite. The total fat grams are 3 grams, which is only 5% of your daily value. The amount of saturated fat is 2 grams, which is 10% of your daily value, and 4 grams of protein which is 6% of your daily value. These granola bars have 10 % of thiamin,niacin,and vitamin B6. Each bar is 110 calories. The amount of sodium per bar is 85 mg, which is 4% of your daily value. What is helpful is on the front of the box they do spell out on the upper right hand corner of the box how many calories each bar has, as well as how much saturated fat, sodium, and sugars in each bar for quick reference. The front of the box also shows that there are 4 grams of fiber per bar, which is in a green circle, and 4 grams of protein is in a blue circle. Each box contains 5 granola bars. I do want to warn you which I have found that most products that do contain a fair amount of fiber in them, they tell you to increase your fiber intake slowly, because if you do eat too much fiber at one time it will cause some intestinal discomfort. Products that are high in fiber do leave you feeling full longer. To me, Kellogg's products have a proven time tested track record quality to them, and they continue to come out with new and healthier products, which is really a plus for those of us who are trying to eat healthier, and making wiser food choices, to have such a wide array of products to choose from. As long as Kellogg's continues to come out with new innovative food products, I will be continue to buy them. They have so many food choices to pick from, you will never get bored or feel deprived, and as an added bonus you will feel healthier too, and lose some weight in the process. To me these Kellogg's Granola Bars are good food choice for everyone, whether you are trying to lose weight or not.
19,225	I was looking for a low carb bar that tasted good and had a higher protein content. This KIND bar was perfect with 10g protein/bar and only 15g of carbs and it tastes absolutely delicious! I like the fact that it has a lot of nuts (which their good fats) which helps it break down slower and more evenly so that you don't get hungry as quick and your body gets to absorb the nutrients more evenly. I bought the high protein KIND bard with the dark chocolate as well but this Almond Walnut Macadamia one tastes better. I highly recommend it!
19,226	I decided to try the Lavazza blue pack (Crema e Gusto) instead of the one that I had found to be perfect in Europe, the Red pack or Lavazza Rossa. I like it but not as much as the Rossa. For my taste it is a little too mocha flavored and I prefer the more robust cafe espresso flavor of the red pack. The price for either coffee is very competetive, particularly if you take advantage of the subscription ordering option. I will be switching back to the Lavazza Rossa.
19,227	This is the only variety of Wellness food that my cat refuses to eat. It is also the only variety that smells horrid. Most of the varieties actually smell good, especially the chicken or turkey flavors. This one is nauseating. In fact, the first can I opened smelled so bad that I thought the product was spoiled and opened a second. Now, either both were spoiled or neither were and it just smells horrific. Too bad, as the product isn't inexpensive (though this Amazon sale is, perhaps because it doesn't sell well??).
19,228	My mom gave me a box of this a few years ago and I had just recently gotten around to trying it. It was excellent. I bought another box and the second I opened the first packet I could smell that they had changed the recipe. Checking the back of the two boxes confirmed it. Cinnamon is about all I taste when I drink it, although the aftertaste has a hint of clove. Pretty expensive for something that tastes mixed by a child.
19,229	I understand the other reviewer's side, and they are smaller rolls, however, the other stores may be cheaper for the candies but the amount they charge for shipping is more than the smarties cost! This is a goodly amount for a reasonable price.
19,230	After a visit to Maui in 1998, I have been longing for a tasty, reasonably priced blend to recapture those glorious memories. I have found it; smooth and tasty and well worth its price!
19,231	I ordered these off of amazon after reading several reviews. I discovered I have multiple food allergies and this is the only "treat" I have found that I am able to have. I think these cookies are great. Good texture, if a little dense (aren't all gluten free products?), with a nice lemon flavor. The cookies are also big, so if you want to eat just one serving, which is half the cookie, it is satisfying. I have also tried warming them up and dipping them in a bit of rice milk, yum! Liked them so much that I have ordered these again and have also decided to try the ginger ones too.
19,232	The Mojito is so good! Tastes like the real deal, and if you want to add a little somthing to make it more of an adult drink it makes a great low cal mixer as well!! Love them will be getting more ASAP!!
19,233	the packs are definitely not that easy to use, big and bulky, they could have cut it down A LOT and been just fine. the popcorn is GOOD, good quality. most of the kernels pop and are very tasty. the oil is ok, not quite theater quality, but not bad, the salt, however, is a different story all together. i does not taste good, NOT good at all. if you use the whole portion it is FAR too salty, and definitely does not taste like theater popcorn, in fact the first batch i made i was so disappointed i thought i should have just kept buying microwaveable. however I've been playing and experimenting, as i don't ant to waste a whole $25. i definitely like using all of the kernals and oil, and about 3/4th of the salt, it seems pretty good this way. i will buy a different brand next time, or just buy a whole box of salt directly from the theater and substitute that salt for this, however it is convenient and not too bad after you figure out the perfect recipe for you and your family.
19,234	I did some cooking last night with chicken tenders, sliced Vidalia onions and 8 ounces of this and it was terrific. I sauteed the tenders in a bit of oil, then dumped my onions on top and added the broth and it all cook down. It made the most amazing glaze. I also love their chicken broth but decided last night to try the veggie version I also love the 8 ounce containers as I live alone and have thrown out remainder of a 32 ounce too often.
19,235	I am torn as what to rate this snack bar. My wife really liked them and I thought they were just okay. So I shall list the good and bad. The GOOD: chocolatey and chewy and only 3 WW points. The BAD: Small in size, only 5 in a box and bland tasting. I may purchase and give it another try.
19,236	I love having a cup of Jasmine Blossom Gream tea at night. It is very tasty and calming. It does not have the bitterness of the Japanese green tea and the flavor is floral.
19,237	It's hard to tell if this is a truly good coffee. It very may well be when the beans are fresh. As soon as I opened the bag there was that vague smell, almost musty and definitely stale. I made a pot anyway. (I'm cheap that way.) Honestly, the stale smell is not evident after brewing but this is a mediocre coffee at best. Maybe it would be better if the beans had been fresh, maybe not. The flavor is almost rich, almost dark, almost really good. It just somehow misses the mark. The beans themselves were, aside from the smell, decent; uniform, a good color and firm. I've had much better coffee and I've had much worse.
19,238	It's true. I've never seen him want food that wasn't in my kids happy meals more than this. He even whined for more after his bowl was empty. This stuff is great for at least one dog!
19,239	I'm a junior in high school and I absolutely love these. They are so yummy and healthy. They're great when I'm in a hurry and want something quick to eat. Over the summer I do chores for over an hour before breakfast and these are great to keep me from getting super between the time I wake up and the time I get to eat. I would recommend these to anyone.
19,240	This baby food is delicious! My son (8 months) LOVES this and will eat almost the entire container. It's hard to find in the store in stage 2 they seem to only carry the 3rd stage jars of this in store. My only wish was that it didnt expire so quickly from when I received them 5 months
19,241	This is hands down the best Turkey Jerky I've had. We used to buy it at Trader Joes, but it was then discontinued and replaced with their own, inferior brand. I was then on a hunt to find it elsewhere. This jerky walks a great line of not being either too dry or too soft, has great turkey flavor and a salty, pleasing teriyaki flavor. Some may think this is too salty - for me it is perfect, but I love salty things.
19,242	I have yet to meet a cat that didn't L O V E these treats ... even the most finicky cat will probably beg for more!
19,243	My wife and I decided that we wanted to begin having miso soup for dinner on a more regular basis, so purchased this miso paste as an essential ingredient for my miso soup recipe. I was totally impressed with the amazing taste and overall product quality. Needless to say, I am reordering and will continue to do so. I want to say that my picky kids love my Miso soup as well -- for kids that seem to only want mac & cheese, they are gorging themselves on (much healthier) miso soup now. This makes me happy. By the way, I also highly recommend the Morinu firm silken tofu and the Ajinomoto Hon Dashi Soup Stock which I both purchased from Amazon. If interested, my Miso Soup recipe is as follows: 1 package of Morinu firm silken tofu, 2 tsp Dashi soup stock, 3 Tbs white miso paste (this stuff), 4 cups of water and 2 chopped scallions -- we also reconstitute shitake mushrooms, add dried wakame seaweed (highly recommend either Eden or Emerald Cove from Amazon as well), add shaved daikon, etc. However, this recipe is awesome just as is... We live in Northern California with some of the best Japanese restaurants in the world, but this recipe blows away (or at least equals) what you can get from any restaurant. I have also made an amazing miso salad dressing from this miso paste as well! But I digress... I highly recommend this miso paste!
19,244	These are just like any other noodles... the only difference is that it takes twice as much to cook. The sauce that comes with it is EXTREMELY HORRIBLE. It tastes so bad that I had to use my own spaghetti sauce. 1. Would I eat the rest I have left? Only if I'm really hungry. 2. Would I buy it again? No 3. Would I recommend it? No
19,245	I purchased this jam for gifts for Christmas. Everyone loved the jam and my family thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you so very much.
19,246	I did a comparison taste test on this Pacific Foods Hemp Milk Original and the Living Harvest Tempt Hemp Milk Original. This hemp milk has a thicker-than-dairy, smoother mouth feel due to the Xanthan gum...too thick IMHO. I can also taste the brown rice syrup sweetener which Pacific Foods puts in all their milks. In comparison, the Living Harvest milk does not have a faux creaminess agent added to it and tastes more straightly of mild, sweet hemp milk rather than brown rice syrup. For these reasons I prefer the LH Tempt milk. I like the thinner and better flavor.
19,247	If you are looking for a substitute for the discontinued Kraft hot drink mix Postum, Pero doesn't taste much like Postum. Postum had a much smoother, slightly sweet taste. Pero has a bitter flavor, which to me tastes like stale coffee. If you are a coffee drinker and want to cut down on caffeine, a good decaf coffee tastes much better than Pero. By the way, Postum was made from from wheat bran, wheat, molasses, and maltodextrin made from from corn. The ingredients of Pero are malted barley, barley, and chicory; so it is quite different.
19,248	I was afraid to try this flavor but I was surprised, they are pretty good. I put these in my healthy vending machines and they sell. [...].
19,249	These bars taste very good. I am a big fan of them. I use these as my morning pick me up.
19,250	I buy this coffee from a Japanese grocery store. (Though I would happily buy it from Amazon if the price were similar.) I prepare it by heating a mug of equal quantities of milk and water in the microwave, then adding a tablespoon of this coffee and some sugar. I imagine, like all instant coffee, it would taste pretty nasty without the milk, but with milk it actually is good. This is the fastest way to obtain a cup of tolerable coffee that I know of, short of buying it already made.
19,251	Google "propylene glycol" to find out why. I bought this product, along with several others, without running the ingredients by my wife first (a nurse of 30 years) she was surprised when she noticed it.. we went a googling, and poured my $50 order down the drain afterwards. There's "pure" and then there's "not so much".....
19,252	I loved this bread. Very tasty with a good texture and taste. I tried making something similar from scratch and it didn't turn out anything like this bread. Slices great warm or cold. I bake for my boss and her family and they all voted a resounding "Yes, we like this" when I brought her in a loaf. Freezes well and toasts up great either plain or with butter or cream cheese. My boss ate hers with spaghetti after lightly toasting. She said it was outstanding and wanted more (am I surprised, no). Would highly recommend if you want a good Italian style bread. I made mine in my horizonetal Wolfgang Puck breadmaker and used a crisp or dark crust setting. I tried all other settings, light and medium and the bread came out great with a little different texture but still great nonetheless.
19,253	I wish there was some way to tell everyone about Amazon's warehouse deals in the grocery section! SNYDER's Pretzels are extremely well known. To find them on the warehouse deal was amazing. I got 12 one pound bags for apx 18.00! Usually, they sell for 3.29 a bag! These were shipped from Pennsylvania the home of the Snyder company in their own box with no room to spare (thus little to no breakage)! They have an expiration date of May 13, 2012 which is a little over 3 months from today(Feb 15)! This averages out to about a bag a week. These are big fat pretzels. One just fits in the palm of my hand. I tried one and it is absolutely NOT stale! This is indeed a fantastic find and savings!
19,254	... in fact it might just be the exact same formula as your closest local/national grocery store brand but with the added bonus of costing about 30% more. We had recently been using this formula until we ran out and I had to make an emergency run to the local grocery store for a quick replacement. The closest thing they had was their organic store brand. Funny thing is, when I got home to compare the two I noticed the ingredients are EXACTLY the same as well as some of the machine writing on the bottom of the cans where you can find the sell by date. From what I can gather after doing a bit of research the formula ingredients used to be different but have recently changed without letting customers know. Virtually all store brand organic formulas come from one manufacturing plant whether you buy it at store X or Y and it seems that Earth's Best is now being produced in this same facility but charging a premium price. I suggest checking this out for yourself, you might be able to save some money.
19,255	This is one of the best coffee flavors ever created. Quality of coffee is top shelf, highly recommend! * * ***
19,256	These were great for party favors. They were delivered on time and no cracks. The kids loved them so I am assume the flavor was good.
19,257	High quality with no bad ingredients. Our 3 dogs love them, and we use them for training as well as treats. Highly recommend.
19,258	Ok I read the other reviews and said "How bad can it be?" Let me tell you it smells like a wet dog that got sprayed by a skunk when it is brewing. As you drink it every once and a while you get that odor. It doesn't taste half bad (no Kahlua flavor though more Hazelnutty). I can't make this at home the house stinks for hours and my dog won't go in the kitchen after I brew it. I took it to work and put it on the table in the kitchen area where free stuff disappears fast. I can't give this coffee away. It's a shame I had high hopes for this flavor. Believe the other reviews, this coffee smells bad!
19,259	I too have been "bugged" by black flying insects in my Miracle-Gro potting soil. I've thrown out bug-contaminated soil, and sprayed with insect killer. I went online to see if others were having the same problem with Miracle-Gro soil, and they have. I also wrote an email to Scott's, the company that manufactures Miracle-Gro, and am hoping to get a response (probably not, but you never know!) In the meanwhile, I'm going to see if I can find a cleaner soil to pot my plants in.
19,260	This is the most disgusting crap I have ever tried to eat! no matter what you do to it, it still has a weird slimy texture. I would rather just count the calories in regular pasta than to eat this stuff.
19,261	Am a huge fan of this cereal so got the jumbo 4 pack which lasted me a very, very long while. It was packed well and tasted fresh so no complaints
19,262	The candy necklaces I received from this company were stale. I threw the whole containter out. Very disappointed. Debbie Palmeri.
19,263	received product promptly on time and in good order. it is a delicious product and will order more soon. i love mexican food and this is great stuff. a jar of this with some chips along with a margarita with some jose cuevro is fine as wine.
19,264	For the cost this is not a good snack but if you don't mind how expensive they are then these can't be beat for calorie counters. A single bag offers tremendous taste and fulfillment for such low levels of calories and fat. My wife loves Popchips and I don't count calories but we both love these fries (mostly). Brief flavour rundown: Jalapeno is very hot. Tastes good. If you like jalapeno, you'll love these. Honey Mustard is the best flavour. Rich, bold, strong taste, very flavourful and high quality. Sea Salt is good but bare and basic. Honey BBQ is great. Weak BBQ flavour compared to most potato chips but still quality. Vinegar is decent, pretty good vinegar taste, again weak compared to most potato chips. Vintage Cheddar is the poorest of the lot, with a dry and musty white cheddar taste, which though real, tastes fake.
19,265	This is my favorite beef jerky, hands down. This is the most bomb-diggety jerky around. Very salty, a bit tough, just perfect. I ordered from Choo Choo R Snacks. I got my jerky sooner than expected, and it was packaged well. I would definitely use them again to get jerky. I can't say enough how pleased I am. I highly recommend this jerky and seller.
19,266	My family has two Yorkies and a Chihuahua. They are not aggressive chewers so these are perfect treats. The quality and price are the best anywhere. I bought these twice from Amazon and will definitely buy again.
19,267	We love, love, love this espresso! We've tried almost all the lavazza coffees and this one is our favorite! We have a jura espresso machine and with this espresso we have the perfect latte every time. Highly recommend it!
19,268	The sliver size is perfect for a snack instead of a full pig ear. My dog can't get enough of these, but this allows me to space the treats out thrughout the day to equal a full size ear. Kinda like a "quick crunch."
19,269	I love this product, and every other flavor that I've tried (grape, mixed berry, and strawberry). However, I didn't like this flavor at all. It has a strange bitter aftertaste.
19,270	I really missed Aloe after being in So Ko for 2 years... Saw this by chance on Amazon, and had to get some! Its a little sweeter, this one uses Honey to sweeten, but still that good ol Aloe drink flavor.
19,271	My doctors at work expect Jelly Bellies when they come in to see the patients. I was going broke. But now that I found out about Belly Flops, made by the Jelly Belly folks, just irregulars, I'm thrilled. So are the doctors....I think they're eating TWICE as many!!! Haha.
19,272	This product was disappointing, the honey tasted like any other brand of nondescript honey, no hints of blueberry whatsoever. I have had blueberry honey from a blueberry farm that did taste mildly of blueberry. I do not recommend McLure's Blueberry Honey product.
19,273	This brand is the best tasting to me. I've tried others, and don't like them, (except for Garden of Eden brand). This smells and taste like coconut. I toast sprouted bread, spread this on it, add a little salt, and maybe some nutritional yeast. Or I use some agave nectar instead of the yeast for a sweet fix. I bought a gallon of another brand, and I don't like it. I will be buying more of this brand.
19,274	I enjoy starbucks hot chocolate, it has good flavor and doesn't seem too sweet. Can become a bit caked up in the can but overall a good product.
19,275	the product description currently describes 3 twelve ounce units. However, I only received one. Not happy about that. Maybe a bit expensive, given that it's only one small container.
19,276	I love this coffee, and my Mespresso machine but buying the capsules here is double the cost. Can you black flag shady vendors?
19,277	Firstly, the product itself - good taste, excellent sweetener, easy to use. It is sort of expensive, so I only buy it on sale. I prefer honey for most sweetening applications, but the agave nectar is actually easier to use, as it is somewhat less viscous and dissolves more easily. On another note, I have never had trouble with the packaging, which is often a problem with gooey liquid items from Amazon. There are seals under the bottle tops, plus shrink wrap over the tops, and the bottles also come shrinkwrapped together. As always, be careful in ordering liquid products through the mail. A rotting box of leaking goo is the bane of the delivery worker and an unwelcome addition to your doorstep. Thirdly, this product comes in other sizes/packaging. I recommend exploring all options to get the best price, and consider Subscribe and Save as well. We can use regular shipments here at our house anyway, since we seldom use granulated sugar.
19,278	I've only cooked with coconut oil a few time. But I like that it a very light oil and give off a great coconut aroma. There's nothing that you can not do with respect to pan frying or stir frying.
19,279	My walker hound is a very picky eater. He does not like milk bones, snausages, or most of the usual cheap dog junk food. He doesn't even like those popular greenies or any other dental chew we have tried. At least, we found these. He absolutely love them. Our other dog likes them too, but he likes everything. They do have a mild smell but it isn't unpleasant to me. The first ingredients are brown rice and quinoa so I like that these aren't made out of junk fillers like so many dog treats and chews. on the market.
19,280	In general, I love Coffee People coffee. My only beef with them in general is that I often get coffee grounds in my brewed coffee, and I don't usually have this happen with other brands of K-cups. But it's usually not many; only one or two. My other problem with this particular order was that one of the K-cups was punctured, so my package arrived covered in coffee grounds. But Amazon was very kind about it, and shipped me a replacement quickly. Other than that, though, this is tasty, strong coffee. I just wish they'd put it on Subscribe & Save.
19,281	This Hickory Smoked flavor is my favorite of the Primal Strips lot. The strips are moist, tender, unusually flavorful, and just the right size. Even my carnivorous relatives in Wisconsin took to these Strips. My only outstanding concern is that Primal Strips are manufactured in Taiwan, which means their production is outside the domain of US food safety and inspection. However, having consumed over two dozen of these strips in the past month, I remain happy and healthy.
19,282	Unless you're some sort of raw food eating hippie, you'd be better off getting your protein elsewhere. This stuff tastes like and has the consistency of grass / dirt. It's pretty hard to stomach, unless you try mixing it with several things. Definitely not worth the trouble or inconvenience. I bought some based on the good reviews posted here and boy do I regret it.
19,283	It didn't pack a lot of punch taste-wise but it smelled glorious and really warmed up some cold days. All in all, easy, convenient, and a great match with peppermint schnapps!
19,284	When I found myself the owner of a dog so smart that I could tell her to unlock the car door and she could do it ( I kid you not, Biscit has the brain of a human 4 year old...) I began to look at animals differently...she truly became even more my my "baby" each day. Now let me backtrack into the day I decided to begin researching dog food with this baby in my life... I was a physician recruiter and had to visit a hospital in a town in Texas where they have more cows per capital than anywhere else in the U.S. in order to utilize them for human consumption. I had several tours of this town and found out by the owners of several companies that it was no accident one of the largest dog food manufacturers is also here. (It is not Newmans own...bear with me) At first that sounds good to you, doesnt' it? That they must be using, for this other company, food grade meat in their dog food? Well, I personally, first hand, watched bull dozers pick up dying and dead cattle. I was proudly told how smart it was that THESE cows are then taken to the dog food plant. (remember, this is NOT Newman's Own, it was what lead me to find Newman's Own) (!) I had many conversations about this...no they dont find out what's wrong with the cows. They are the cancerous, diseased, unhealthy cows that go into this other maker's food. I was appalled. And yes, I was told how great it was because they buy them for nothing from the cattle company and no they aren't supposed to...but they can and they were ever so proud. Fast forward to a couple years ago with the dog food recall when pets were dying from diseased meat being in their food because of this very reason...cows with diseases so bad that it made pets die got into many brands of the cheap commerical dog foods. The reason why Newman's Own was one of a handful of companies who had no recall? They are one of the few companies that use FDA certified HUMAN GRADE meat. See label. Yep, they are allowed to put things that are not allowed to be eaten by humans in most other dog foods...unless you find a company that uses food grade meat. Most people dont know this! Better yet, Newmans' own uses organic. I'll be honest, I dont use this food all the time. I learned about it from someone who shows Pomeranians and uses this because her dogs coats look better because it helps their health. I actually make a lot of my dog's food after my day at the cattle plant that I unwittingly visited. But I am not always long on time and when I find myself there, I use these or a dry dog food that's organic and human grade from Flint River Ranch, another company a vet told me about. Okay so on to my studies for the past 5 years in dog health. This became fascinating to me...many vets found that many health related issues with dogs began (or multiplied) when commercial dog foods began being made for convenience. Think about it...not only are they suddenly not getting food grade food unless you buy something like Newman's Own, but humans are told how bad processed food is, yet dogs eat the same thing each day, processed food. Many vets are on board to change this in spite of the fact that most veterinary schools are funded by the major dog food manufacturers...so...you figure that out... (p.s. in the old days dogs got table scraps...but these table scraps were in the days before humans ate processed foods with artificial ingredients and preservatives...so dogs eating the meats and vegetables were healthier than today when we buy special food for them! But bear with me...Newman's Own has changed all this!) So anyhoo...the best place for info is to go to dog shows and ask about diet because health is studied here for coat and longevity and ease in litters etc when it's thier living and life. I have yet to meet a champion who eats commercial dog food unless it's organic with the balance of minerals,veg, good carbs, etc. like Newman's Own. Many also do a raw diet with veg and brown rice.) Many of the minerals needed in the commercial brands are actually added then baked out and many have cornmeal as the main ingredient because it's cheapest... if you look at the nutritional info on Newman's own, even if you don't care that it's human grade and organic, you will see that the balance of protein, vitamin, minerals, etc is ALL the exact measure now studied by dog health experts as ideal. This is hard to find. So, should you, too, have a dog that is a member of the family, my 5 years of research has led me to praise the Newman's Own label (even for what I eat for myself in their other HUMAN grocery products!) and if you want to supplement this dog food with home cooked meals the best guide to curing your dog through a diet natural to what they need is Dr Pitcairn's book of natural health for dogs and cats. (get the most recent edition if you do; he updates them the more he researches.) He's studied this far more than I'll ever be able to and is a top vet who teaches other vets about what they dont learn in vet school: major PREVENTATIVE measures through natural diet. He began his own quest when someone brought in either a wolf or coyote and he made the connection that whenever he saw wild dogs they didn't have teeth with tartar build up and so many health issues that our house dogs who aren't outside as much wind up with--then he started tracing back to when some of the cancers and skin problems etc began and it was with the emergence of commercial cheap dog food. Coyotes get veg from the tummies of what they kill, there are minerals, things they need from bones, there are things that naturally prevent tartar, fleas etc that we have removed from the diet of our house dogs. (my own dogs now have coats so shiny strangers comment each time I take them out...and p.s. we live in the woods and they have no fleas!) I, personally, have helped friends CURE "health" issues in their pets that were actually food issues that their vets kept "treating" without ever suggesting they change to a natural diet. They spent tons on medicine for skin problems etc then at my prodding gave them GOOD dog food and "cured" them! Newmans Own has taken dog food out of the profit center and into care. While it can't cure all ails as much as balanced vitamin enriched homemade food may in my opinion, it is a staple in my pantry. I also use Flint River Ranch at the recommendation of my vet who studies the same issues. He loves them both. I am a raving fan. and, p.s. no I have no monetary interest in this company which isI why I also recommended other food options and brands...but I care enough about animals to be long-winded due to my years of study on it.
19,285	I had purchased something similar to these at a cat show. But when I tried to find them in stores it was nearly impossible. I was so happy when I found these. My loves them and gobbles them up. It is the only cat treat she will eat and I have tried them all. she hates all other treats and just walks away. But these she begs for literally. If you have a finicky cat like mine, these will be a hit. I even sprinkle it on her food so she will eat it, and the dust at the bottom is great for that. I highly recommend these treats for cats. Update: I have continued to purchase these and they are still the only treat either one of my cats will eat. The older cat has apparently taught the kitten these are the only treats worth eating. Still a great product and I have never had problems like other reviewers had.
19,286	I have tried all of the French vanilla Kcups options for Keurig brewers. This one is in the top two. You should try it if you are a French Vanilla fan!
19,287	These tasted so gross to me. :( Yuck. These were supposed to help with nausea....not cause it. I do not recommend this product.
19,288	When I was growing up, every year just after Thanks Giving, our home would be filled with multitudes of boxes from the Swiss Colony. From cheese spreads, meat logs, candies, and most importantly, the petit's fours! I remember Swiss Colony Petit's Fours being much larger, tastier and not dry as stale cake that has been sitting around for months before shipping. I was very disappointed in the flavor and quality of these little cakes and they are not at all the quality I remember growing up. It has been about 14 years since I had anything from the Swiss Colony and I have to say, it will be the last time I order anything from them. There are so many companies out there now that make them bigger, better and fresher (I know, I picked up a box from a famous brand at a local mall kiosk) than what I had when I purchased these. Granted, the price was cheaper...but I guess I got what I paid for. Very disappointed Swiss Colony!
19,289	We love this all natural, organic apricot. Very sweet and soft. Worth the money. You pay more at a health food store per bag. I,ve been shopping from the health food stores for over 25 years. Let me say that the color is not as bright and cheerful as the non- organic counterpart but keep in mind that this is all natural. It was not treated with chemicals, preservatives or colorings. This is good tasting and good for you. For me, it is good quality and deliscious. I will order this again and other natural fruit products by them. Enjoy!
19,290	Kuchen Meister Rum Stollen 750g package is nicely boxed and well wrapped. I would have perferred it slightly less dry and with more rum flavor. However, this is not to say this is not an excellent product and quite tasty. Yes, I would buy the product again.
19,291	I love Fiji water. I can never quite put my finger on what is different about it, but it is a significant and positive difference. It feels different too. There are other nutrients in it, which are listed on the bottle, and this makes me feel like it is an enhanced experience of drinking water to stay healthy and hydrated. I definitely recommend it. (I also like the low prices and free shipping that are sometimes available on Amazon).
19,292	If you love black licorice and tea this is the best tea ever made. It is not too strong but just enough licorice flavor. Perfect on a chilly evening with milk. Yummy!
19,293	I have a young Siberian Husky who recently developed an allergy to the feed he's been eating since he was a puppy. This was a natural, no-corn, no-grain food, so I was pretty surprised to say the least. We had a couple of weeks of headaches ruling out parasites or other intestinal problems to figure out the cause of his chronic loose stools. After resorting to Dr. Google, I decided to give Pro Plan Sensitive a try. The change was DRAMATIC. Within a few days, my dog's stool firmed up and has been fine and regular since... sure beats having to get up three times a night for a poor dog with an upset stomach and unpredictable bowel movements! If you're having similar problems and have ruled out other medical causes (which you should always do, especially if your dog has a tendency to eat things he is not supposed to), I recommend you give this feed a try. We have a wagging tail and a happy tummy that agrees!
19,294	My dog loved the taste. They are perfect for a treat, but once a pill of ANY size was inserted, he would find it, spit it out and eat the treat. Maybe for some dogs, but did not work for mine.
19,295	The first time I used this product I loved it. Easy and quick to prepare with an excellent taste. I prepared some seasoned steak tips and mix them with the Santa Fe beans. It was great as a soup or poured over a baked potato with cheese. I plan to keep this product in my pantry. An excellent food.
19,296	I have been using this product for several years since I discovered it on Amazon. I have GERD (esophageal reflux disease) and I can't drink formulations that either have too much sugar or too much acid. This drink does not set me off like some of the other flavors do. I has a very pleasant apple flavor, that you swear is real apple juice. I usually mix two measuring cups (included) into a 70oz Camelback and place it into the fridge for my next day's ride. The drink will stay cool for two hours. This product does have sugars, although not much. It has about 90 calories per measure, which is enough for a good ride around town. If you are a marathoner, then you will need more calories and may need to suppliment your drink with power bars. But this is enough for us casual riders. If you don't want the calories, then you can decrease your measurements accordingly. This is the only drink for me and I hope they never take it off the market.
19,297	I had a bag of these during a trip to London. I was looking for Walker's Frazzles but this was the only bacon-flavored chips I could find at the Tesco. The taste is very similar to Frazzles if not better. It tastes just like bacon! Even suitable for vegetarians.
19,298	Other reviewers said these prunes are dry, but they aren't anymore! They must have changed the way they process/package them. Now they come in a pouch, rather than the round tub, and you are supposed to refrigerate after opening. I didn't with the first pouch and they were fine though. I bought these prunes before because they are organic, $ goes to charity and they are a lot less expensive than at Whole Foods, but now I also buy them because they are moist, yummy and the best!
19,299	I tasted Lavazza many times being in Italy as well in France and excellent quality (taste, smell) of it can't be confused with anything else. Have to regret - I'm EXTREMELY disappointed with this "Lavazza Super Crema" beans from Amazon - it's under-roasted, bitter and acid taste, weak (yes, there was a typo) and unpleasant smell and crema....well, even relatively old coffee beans from TJ Maxx produce better crema with proper grind&tamping or even just with the pressurized portafilter. I'm using semi-automatic espresso machine (DeLongi BAR32 before and now Saeco Aroma, Breville BCG450XL Conical Burr Grinder) about 5 years (I mean I'm not a novice for espresso), and have tried this beans immediately after the bag was opened (1st "news" - very weak smell), used fresh grind, careful and dense tamping, machine is properly heated and primed. The consumption date on the package marked as October of 2011 and I know that Lavazza's shelf life is 14 months - therefore, received in March 2010, it's 6 months old roast, not too fresh but I had used much older roasts without any problems. Not sure how it works for latte but as espresso coffee it's wasted money and lost expectation. Don't be fooled by positive reviews - some people never tried the real espresso and some even don't like it but coffee-infused milk drink. Also note that Amazon sells some Lavazza coffee's for much higher price and no "subscription" proposed. The attractive price($16 per kg with subscription)is definitely result of poor quality - something wrong with this "Lavazza Super Crema" coffee.
