This corn attracts more birds and squirrels than both my other feeders combined. Good deal bulk purchase, will definitely purchase more.

I tried everything to get my dog (small, 13 pounds) to take his antibiotics and pain meds after surgery. No matter what he spit them right back out. Bought these, followed the directions and eat ate them right up! No questions asked! I love pill pockets!

I have tried every type of coffee I could find and none was a good as Cock full of Nuts. I which it was available locally. I have to pay as much for the shipping as I do for the coffee.

I'll get this out of the way first... If you are expecting the quality of a few tenths of an ounce of instant "mix" to be the same as a fresh pressed glass of Apple Cider, you're expectations are way too high for a product like this. This is a fancy instant drink mix in a K-Cup package. Just got my first package and made my first cup and it is pretty darn good. I paid $8.50 with the subscribe and save discount and for 24 K-Cups (around 35 cents each), I think it is a pretty good deal. You can taste the sometimes over-sweetness of the fake sugar used (heck, they only have 10 calories, there has to be a trade off!) but I regularly use Splenda in my coffee so it was not a problem. If you are looking for an alternative to coffee or tea in your Keurig brewer, this is a pretty good option and a pretty good price.

These mushrooms were easy to reconstitute and, when used as a component in another recipe, they add an excellent flavor and texture. Before I purchased them, I noticed that one reviewer said that these mushrooms didn't have any flavor, which caused me a little anxiety about ordering them. I believe I know why he/she might believe that is the case. The mushrooms themselves don't have huge amounts of flavor when you pull them out of the soaking liquid. When you reconstitute them, be certain to keep the soaking liquid. DON'T DISCARD IT because that's where most of the flavor is. I suspect that might have been what happened in the other reviewer's case. You can strain the liquid or run it through a coffee filter to remove grit. Then reduce the soaking liquid to add back into sauces or other morel recipes and the flavor can actually become more intense with the reconstituted mushrooms. All in all I'm very satisfied with this purchase, even though they are very expensive.

This ginger beer is, from what I've been told is the original ginger beer that was used to concoct the now famous "dark n stormy". The product did not disappoint. My order took almost a month to arrive though. The first shipment was damaged in transit by FedEx. The second shipment arrived fairly quickly courtesy of UPS. Second shipment was one bottle short of a full 24 bottles.

I LOVE these! I don't drink soda anymore because I'm trying to be healthier, so when I'm craving a coke I grab these. Perfect coke taste, with a lot less calories and sugar!

The Lavazza Super Crema Espresso Whole Bean Coffee is the best coffee I've found. We used to buy the regular Lavazza locally, but this has a nicer crema & a much better price in the coffee club here at Amazon. I have a Saeco espresso machine & I look forward to brewing this up every morning. I love the convenience of having the coffee delivered right to my door. I can always change the delivery date if I find we aren't using it quick enough, or need it sooner. This was the first club like this we tried with Amazon, & I have been very pleased with it. I'm getting a high quality coffee for a great price & with no hassle.

These are a little misleading as I thought they were the Nylabone Advanced Oral Care "Fresh Breath" "Plak Buster" Dental Hearts. They look the exact same, green hearts & say just about the exact same thing on the package but they are not the same. The "Fresh Breath" dental hearts make my yorkie's bad breath go away instantly where as these did not at all. I still used them on my Pitbull which helped with tarter/ plaque on her teeth.

Hey guys I am allergic to water, air, ceiling fans, pillows, and thumbtacks. Do not come into contact with any of these things on my list because they may be dangerous. You should all do some research on the dangers of them before purchasing, I am not blaming the makers of air for making me allergic to it but I am going to supposedly consume it then preach about the dangers of it and give it a bad rating. If you are a fan of the show House you might remember this clinic patient: "A recent ex-smoker comes in with diarrhea. The patient is using gum to deal with his oral fixation. House points out the sorbitol sweetener in the gum is a laxative." I like this gum and especially the thin packaging, it was a good price here on Amazon.

I have never found Altoids to be lacking. Also bought the new licorice flavor. It is really nice if you like licorice, and I do. Good price.
5,011
I think this is the best finishing salt ever. Melts in your mouth, delicate flakes. I have purchased it for friends and they are thrilled to find a new culinary delight.

Doing very well after several months in the office, great addition. Plus the bonsai is easy to trim and keep tidy. Make great lasting gifts.

This is such a weak tasting tea, that it is barely better than drinking hot water. Even using two tea bags per cup, it is deficient. Considering the very high cost (I paid around $11 for the tin) it's ridiculously expensive, particularly when using two bags per cup. I complained to customer service, and they told me herb teas are supposed to be weak, and I should doctor it up with sugar and milk. Then offered, if I shipped it back, to replace it with a different one. Are they kidding....I have to ship it back in order for them to replace the $11 tin? I think the real problem is, when you look at the tea bag, there is barely anything in it....looks like not even half a teaspoon of "tea". I guess putting adequate tea in the bag might have dipped into their profit margin. I'd skip this one and go for another brand.

Amazingly and briefly, the local grocery store offered this during the holiday season last year at an inflated price common to this area. I tried it regardless out of curiosity and desire to learn more about maple syrup grades. I was richly rewarded with this one. Luckily I kept the label and ordered online at a much better price and more reliable availability. The robust flavor, sweetness, aroma and viscosity (yes, thickness matters) are full-bodied and satisfying without that miserable cloying aftertaste of "maple flavored" sugar syrups. Flavor perception is very personal, so I'll not waste space in description. What is important is that this syrup fulfills my expectations of what maple syrup should be.

The herbs of Provence are a good addition to seasoning for all kitchens. They can be uses for a dash of flavor & are not overpowering. I am enjoying trying them on various dishes I cook for family meals.
5,016
These are great baked potato chips for those who are watching their fat intake! Love them!
5,017
While the plastic packaging seemed oh-so-convenient for me, when I opened the first bottle and took a sip- YUCK. Plastic is all I taste. Then I noticed that it was also from concentrate!? What!? Way to ruin your product Zico. Wish I'd read these reviews first.

The last time Kellogg's attempted a "honey nut" cornflake I was not impressed. While the flavor was good the flakes were extremely "crunchy", bordering on hard. I had to let them soak a bit before the texture would be acceptable. They were not the "Frosted Flakes" with a honey nut flavor I was expecting. "Cruncy Nut" is what I expected the first time. The smell of honey hits your nose every time the package is opened. The flavor is moderately strong honey with a hint of nut on a flake that is crunchy but *not* hard. The texture is very similar to "Frosted Flakes" and the crunch holds up in milk similarly to "Frosted Flakes". This one's earned a regular place on my cereal shelf.

I have used organic valley skim milk for baking, hot coco,yogurt,smoothies, cereals etc. I also use this product for ice cream. I have a NINJA mixer, I'm sure you have seen it advertised, I put a cup of cold water, three heaping teaspoons of organic valley skim milk, four packets of STEVIA and 1 cup or 1 1/2 cups of frozen strawberries or frozen peaches in mixer, pulse approx 4 times and then hold down top for approx 1 min, use judgement. YOU HAVE ICE CREAM, very low in calories. Great product!

I understand that many of our daily products are now made in China. And I am not saying that all products made in China are bad. I own many products around the house that are made in China. But food is something I refuse to buy that are made in China. In the product description, it does not specify that it's made in China. On the box I received indicates that it's ******************************************************************************************* MANUFACTURED BY Guangzhou Yongwant Foods Co., Ltd IMPORTED BY Liberty Richter Bloomfield, NJ 07003 ******************************************************************************************* I thought I would share with others who feels the same before wasting your money. My purchase 1 box (6 packs) went straight to the trash.

This is by far the best root beer that I've ever tasted. Bold sassafras and licorice flavors.
5,022
i got these in about 4-5 days after payment. i gave them one each when i got them. and put the rest away for Christmas... well my dogs didn't stupid they go up the the closet and sniff every time i open it lol so i assume they loved them
5,023
This is the best tasting sugar free shortbread cookie ever. Doesn't even taste sugar free.
5,024
I have to agree with the recent reviews, these are just so so as far as taste. I bought them as a lightning deal special thinking these would be a little healthier and keep me away from the Kettle chips that I love...after eating a bag of these, I want the Kettle chips back. They are ok but not as good as a fried chip. Maybe eating these will discourage me from chips period. Like some other people making comments, I'll probably finish the box and not buy again. They remind me of Pringle chips just smaller and maybe a little puffier.

I recently received an Iced Tea maker, so before using this tea in the traditional sense which is with hot water, I decided to use it as an Iced Tea. It was very delicious. The Peppermint is very strong and you can really taste and smell it. I don't use sugar in my tea. I like them without and this flavor really stands out. The smell of it is very strong. My wife said it smelled like cough syrup. But, the taste of it was nothing like cough syrup. The makers of the tea, Higgins & Burke, put out good flavor tea. I will add this one to my favorites.
5,026
A very flavorful cereal with or without milk. The sweetness of the honey and the lightly salted peanuts were a tasty combination. Crunchy Nut didn't last a week in my household. I would definitely purchase this item in the future. If the price was right.
5,027
I love granola and I love Kind products but the Vanilla Blueberry Clusters were not a favorite of mine. The blueberry flavor was great. Tasted like fresh blueberries but the vanilla taste was a little off and the granola itself tasted a little stale. It didn't have a balanced flavor either. I was either hit with blueberry, vanilla or oats. The flavors competed instead of complimenting.
5,028
I recently reviewed the Extend Bar Peanut Butter Chocolate Delight, 15-Count, 21.16-Ounce Box, the Extend Bar Peanut Butter Crunch, 15-Count, 21.16-Ounce Boxand the Extend Bar Apple Cinnamon Delight, 15-Count, 21.16-Ounce Box and loved all 3. I have now had the opportunity to try their newest flavor bar and it was even better. The fact that the bars deliver long term energy and are clinically validated would have been enough for me, but they once again raised the bar on nutrition bar taste. I will be a life-long customer. Thank you Amazon for carrying these and thank you ExtendSnacks for bringing such great products to market for people with diabetes like myself.
5,029
It sounds delicious, but the taste is just too fruity, and not all that good tasting. It just tastes weird, for lack of a better description. I enjoyed Van Houtte French Vanilla and Creme Brulee flavors, but this one will be re-gifted:) I wish you could get smaller samplers without having to commit to this many.

I'd been eying the Nylabone Dental Dinos in our local pet store for awhile but put off purchasing one for our four month old sheltie figuring it'd be too hard or too heavy for him at such a young age... but then we revived one from my mother (non-dog owner) as a gift for the puppy and he loves it! It's his favorite chew after the Nylabone Edibles (he's a little glutton) and he can spend hours chewing on it from all angles. He wasn't so keen on it to start out with, but a little playing (hold it out and then pull it back- not mean just to get him to chase it) has turned it into one of his favorite toys. It's durable, easy to clean and the shape is quite engaging. He can manipulate it, chew on the various limbs and carry it all around the house.

Tried these on a whim, after seeing them at gas stations for all these years. The Berry taste took a week to get used to, but now I thoroughly enjoy them. It's hard to say if these specifically perk me up and get me going like a caffeine pill, but I do believe they keep me from being exhausted. I guess I'd speculate that instead of elevating you, they keep you at a constant level, whatever level you happen to be at one you drink one. If you're already tired, IDK how much these would work. Keep in mind the following after reading the above: I have, in my 30 years on this planet, taken far more caffeine than is recommended. I consider myself very tolerant of its affects now. My MD told me to stop taking so much caffeine because it was damaging my kidneys. This probably doesn't help, but it (hopefully) isn't as bad a straight dose of No-Doze.
5,032
Fantastic tasting potato chips. I love the individual bags, great for kids and adults too. No trans fat, no cholesterol, no artifical stuff. Low in sodium and high in potassium, which is great for people like me with HBP. Only problem is Amazon is out of stock some times and price is high.
5,033
We like to mix this with regular coffee because it's so strong and rich by itself that it makes it go further and isn't too overpowering.
5,034
Not only does this store all those annoying little Kcups, but I put sugar packs and creamers it it too. The black top is great because it doesn't show every little splash of coffee. A much better solution that the tree-type stands!
5,035
Interesting water with a weirdly high pH (9.5). I liked the taste. Tried it after a hot day and it was nice and refreshing. I wouldn't necessarily drink it by the case load though since it has an awkward aftertaste and goes flat once the bottle is opened (I never realize water can go flat like soda).
5,036
I was so happy when I decided to look for Runts on Amazon. I have not been able to find them in any stores in my area for a few years now.
5,037
This is good stuff for quick veggies and a little carbohydrate energy. Sadly it might be cheaper at your grocery store than here.
5,038
I got the Mystic Morning flavor, and if this is what a medium roast from this brand tastes like, I wonder how deep their dark roasts go. It's a bracing flavor profile in the morning, the kind of coffee that'll put hair on your chest. If you want your coffee strong enough to get up and walk away on its own, this is for you. Bear in mind though that an 8 oz pack will not go very far.
5,039
We just love this popcorn. It's just like being at the theater -- only better. Doesn't have that fake butter flavor that our theater has.
5,040
A great workout supplement. Tastes great, adds a little pep and yet doesn't make you feel crazy.
5,041
Since I feed my dogs Science Diet (recommended by my vet), I've been giving this to them as 1/4 of their regular meal. Honestly, they really do enjoy the taste and often times will finish this food before their regular food. Using it as a snack or 1/4 of their meal, they have not had any stomach upset. There are dry kibble bits along with a more moist kibble.The more moist parts are flakes which seem elastic and rubbery. It has a savory scent which just calls them to the dinner bowl. You can separate the moister bits and keep them as reward or treats, another tip given by my vet.
5,042
Yes it's bright green, yes it is full of sugar, but by gum is this mint syrup delicious! Like several other reviewers, I grew up in Europe where this can be considered a fairly common drink. Most cafés in France, Belgium and even Italy will carry a mint syrup, and no, they don't use it in coffee! Add a dash (or four) to cold water (flat or sparkling) and you have created what is easily one of the most refreshing drinks imaginable. The mint tastes is not overly sugary, making it excellent as a cocktail mixer/modifier (alcoholic or virgin). Use Teisseire mint syrup to add a punch in flavor and presentation! I highly recommend that you give this sirop de menthe a try!!
5,043
From a taste standpoint, my son really loved these. I like that they are relatively "clean" in ingredients, but simply contain too much added sweetener. Not only is 17g of sugar very high for a granola bar, my 9-year old daughter and I actually found the taste too sweet and cloying (and not enough almond!)
5,044
Once I tasted Hazelnut coffee, I was hooked! Now it's the only coffee I drink. Maxwell House Hazelnut is my favorite brand, but it has been hard to find sometimes in stores. Until we can order it on Amazon, try either Don Francisco's Hazelnut or even Target's Market Pantry Hazelnut Brand - both are very good.
5,045
Great price for this stuff! It definitely works for me, gives me a good kick when I get the afternoon sleepy-effect. They have a really long expiry (2013) so there is no harm in buying in bulk.
5,046
This is the best all around 1st cup in the morning coffee ever! I love it. Perfect flavor.
5,047
Even though I do not drink coffee, I take pride in ordering my wife's coffee. I have ordered many types of hard to get coffee on-line from this company. Delivery was prompt, and company very efficient, thanks
5,048
UPS just delivered this, and it was a melted mess. It's not a big circular box, as pictured, but a rather small, rectangular box (with perhaps half the chocolates as pictured - if wrappers count). And when we opened the box, what we found was a box of chocolate sauce. No individual piece survived. What a mess. ADDENDUM: I complained of this Saturday evening. By Monday afternoon they processed a full refund, including shipping fees. Guess it was just a fluke.
5,049
I bought this product through Amazon because I could get 6 containers shipped to my home for the same price as it cost me at the store. And the closest place I could get it is a 45 minutes drive one way. Flax is a great source of Omega 3's and it can be added to almost anything. I use it on my cereal, scrambled eggs, in protien drinks and in yogurt just to name a few. And my husband even likes it! He says it adds a slightly nutty taste to things.
5,050
Very tasty I love them! Good healthy snack when I am craving sugar. I like to eat dried fruit but this has now been my new alternative! Thanks
5,051
I can't drink caffeine after 2PM so I rely on herbal teas for comfort drinks in the afternoon and evening. But every once in awhile I want a cuppa that has a bit of zing to it. This tea is how I get it. [ASIN:B003D4IUUW Stash Premium Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea, Tea Bags, 30-Count Boxes (Pack of 6)]] - great flavor and an absolutely fabulous price. And it's delivered to me...I don't have to go try to find it in the local store.
5,052
I've tried a few Clear products in recent months, and the Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Strong Lengths Nourishing conditioner is probably my least favorite of the bunch. It's not the worst conditioner I've ever tried and actually smells better than some of their other products, but it just didn't leave my hair as soft and manageable as, say, Clear's Volumizing Root Boost conditioner. That might be because it's more about strengthening your hair than leaving it soft, but I didn't notice much help for me there, nor did I have any less tangles (sometimes gets severely tangled in the front, to the point that I basically have to cut the knots out). Now, I realize that my hair might not be what this product is aimed for, as I don't really have long lengths (currently about shoulder length, long-ish for a guy), but my wife's definitely is, as hers is long (mid back) and can be prone to breakage (naturally quite curly, but often heat-straightened). She didn't particularly care for it either, also preferring some of Clear's other products (again, just didn't seem to condition as well to her either; this is probably why this one is still half-full while the others are almost empty). There are worse conditioners out there, but if you're looking for something that's going to really make a noticeable difference, then there are much better options within Clear's own product line at the very same price point.

My daughter introduced me the first time I went to visit her ... I could not stop eating until finish the package! since then, when it comes to Brazil she carries 50 packages! half and half for me to distribute to the family! the contrast of the chocolate with salty pretzel makes me mad. Delicious, addictive ... Minha filha me apresentou na primeira vez que fui visitá-la... Nao consegui parar de comer ate acabar o pacote! desde então, quando ela vem ao Brasil ela me traz 50 pacotes! metade para mim e a outra metade distribuo com a família! o contraste do chocolate com o salgado do pretzel me faz enlouquecer. Delicioso, viciante...
5,054
I like these and think they are tasty-good to keep on hand in the car or in your briefcase when a hunger pang attacks
5,055
So glad that there are companies that are making products without gmo. This magnesium tastes great and when I drink it I can feel my system soaking up the nutrient, and feel the relaxing effects immediately. Great stuff. I have more relaxed energy and have slept much better since taking this product.
5,056
Keeping it short and sweet- It's a delicious product, great gift size or quantity to have in your house so your cabinet is not full of unhealthy sugars but still is a nice treat. Easy to make- will definitely buy again
5,057
I last bought this in May 2011, for around $26. I used to get it for around $17 on Subscribe and Save, before Amazon ended that option. I had to stop buying all my k-cups from amazon, because the big warehouse club has an 80-pack of Donut House and Caribou blend varieties for $33. I first thought it was just the coffee product that amazon was having pricing issues with, but their prices seem to be inflating across the board, while their competitors are not reflecting the same sort of steep increases. I've found myself going to v*t*c*st.com for many of the repetitive grocery items that I used to order through amazon. The main difference I can see is that amazon's competitors don't have to worry about pleasing Wall Street, so their prices are kept more honest. Italian Blend coffee is a decent mild coffee, my wife's favorite. We'll keep ordering it, but it won't be from amazon.
5,058
Three of the seven herbs are not growing and the selection of plants isn't very good, think they should offer single plants.
5,059
Butterscotch (butter rum) lifesavers are hard to find in the stores (the individually wrapped ones), so I buy a case of these every so often for my elderly mother. She likes to put a few in her purse and enjoys eating a few a day. Because they are individually wrapped as well as sealed in the larger bag, they have a long shelf life. I wish more stores would carry this flavor so I would not have to pay the shipping costs. But it is for my mom. What can I say? :)
5,060
The product is great. However, I, too, received 12 - 8 oz. packages instead of 12 - 10 oz. packages as advertized. So, as long as you don't mind getting ripped by 20% ...... keep this in mind when ordering.
5,061
Not happy. To much iced tea, decaf, hot chocolate, iced coffee,etc. The coffee that was there was mostly so dark & extra bold it was almost not drinkable. Seems like this is the stuff nobody is buying in this variety pack. WOULD NOT RECCOMEND THIS ONE!!!!!
5,062
Love good horse radish, and this is the BEST!!! Always looking for the hottest I can find, and I finally have, again. Having worked in Restaurants, "Atomic" was available, but only in Costco size containers...I would always take a little home (with permission) when needed. But, now it is available for purchase...SWEET! This will clear your sinuses! Love this product!
5,063
I used to love the smokehouse almonds but the last few cans I bought SUCKED! Bland with little flavor. Does anyone know if they changed ingredients or recipes or something?
5,064
Length:: 0:59 Mins Our family has tried a number of different types of MIO, unfortunately the Peach tea is definitely not a favorite in our home. My daughter actually mixes it with the MIO Mango Peach, 1.62 Ounce (Pack of 4) and prefers that flavor.
5,065
These zesty snack chips are a great low-calorie snack. They're also high in fiber and protein.
5,066
I like the portion size on this one. Son started eating this at 5 1/2 months. No issue with feeding him cold or hot he eats it. I like the benefits of DHA and I like the listed Vegetables/Grains. I like the pricing, no tax, and free shipping to my door. Can't beat the price for pack of 8 in the stores. we get this food delivered too. The packs are easy to throw in diaper bag w/spoon and feed him. Less mess and fuss. Our son's 11 months now and still eats this.
5,067
This is my second order of the Coconut Bubble Tea Powder. I am constantly searching for new recipes to use it with. I tried Green tea base, white tea; rice milk. All tastes good. Since it is such a large quantity, I was not prepared on where or how to store it. Now, I store it in a large glass jar with a wide top glass canister with tight fitting lid available at Crate and Barrel or Walmart.
5,068
This is an incredible honey. Thick, complex and tasty. Good with anything. Just a 1/2 teaspoon creates a heavenly experience!
5,069
This coffee is just ok; personally I prefer Barrista Italian - it's just more robust. Barrista may cost more, but the flavor is far superior to Tully's.
5,070
Service was quick and painless. I have searched all over for this product and finally found it through Amazon. Thank you for your fast, courteous, service.
5,071
***** Well, this is MY dark chocolate. Creamy, lavender-y---absolutely perfect! You don't really taste the blueberries per se, as they just set off the lavender, which is subtle and perfect. This is Dagoba and organic chocolate at its best. Not only is it incredibly pleasurable to eat this bar---it's good for you as well, full of anti-oxidants. I'm thrilled that Amazon offers them so affordably in a twelve pack. If you enjoy dark chocolate, you will NOT be disappointed. *****
5,072
We like these Sugar Free Licorice candies. They are small and strong with good licroice flavor. Small box fits in your pocket or purse easily.
5,073
Let me first say, I have never written a review on amazon. I didn't even buy my chocolate from amazon but from the the Leonidas website directly. It is phenominal. It is delicious. It is the best chocolate ever! The dark chocolate assortment is my favorite. The fillings are like little clouds of deliciousnesss! These chocolates are so good, I sought out a place to rave about them.
5,074
These are by far my favorite chips, they are extremely crunchy (similar to other Kettle style chips), but it's the extreme Vinegar flavor that differentiates these from lesser fried potato snacks. I've tried several other brands of Salt and Vinegar and none of them come close.
5,075
I ordered this flavor of k-cup from Amazon because it sounded so darn good...and it is!! The flavors mix and mingle in your mouth when you drink it. I use cream in my coffee and it doesn't dilute the delightful flavor. Try it, you will be pleased.
5,076
These are quite tasty and by far the leanest, highest protein you will find. Great price as well! They are twice as big as a Slim Jim too, just WAYYYY healthier :)
5,077
Newman's Own Organic Pretzels are far better than any other pretzel I've eaten. As most probably know, any product Newman's Own produces is superior to competitor brands. My favorite Newman's Own pretzel however is their Organic Spelt Flour Pretzel. Once you eaten them, no other pretzel compares. Unfortunaly, very few retail outlets carry Newman's Own Organic Spelt Pretzels. The only stores I've been able to find them is at the Whole Foods Grocery Chain. There are not many Whole Foods around, but it worth the trip.

These were really taste. I prefer buttered couscous, but these are really good. Good substitute for rice or other side dishes.

When I learned about the many benefits and uses of coconut oil I had to try it, so I ordered 2 jars -one for my pantry for cooking/smoothies etc. and one for my bathroom to use as a body cream. Since I didn't know what brand to choose and didn't have any prior experience with coconut oil I decided to get one jar of the NUTIVA brand and one jar of the NATURE'S WAY brand. Here's my initial opinion of both: With my Nutiva jar there's a sticker indicating the expiration date and package/creation date of the actual oil, whereas with my Nature's Way jar there's nothing like that. When I opened both of them up to try and to just generally check them out I tasted a tiny amount of both and it was very clear that the Nutiva jar's coconut oil tasted much better. I'm not sure exactly why, but to me the Nature's Way coconut oil didn't taste as good, it was kind of toasty in a bad way. It was very easy for me to decide to use the Nutiva brand coconut oil for my cooking and in my smoothies and the Nature's Way coconut oil for my skin. I've since read that this difference in taste could be because the Nutiva brand coconut oil was fresher and the Nature's Way older. Or it could be quality, I'm really not sure. But I am sure that from now on I'm going to just be buying the Nutiva brand Coconut Oil (just ordered 2 more big jars of it). :) To say that the Nature's Way coconut oil was toasty still isn't exactly the right word -toasty sounds like something good... when it's so not, but I really can't think of a better word to describe the difference. I've found a lot of uses for coconut oil and have used it for many things with great results so far. It's hard to believe one little oil can do so much! Weird actually, but everything I've tried it with so far has had positive results. So here's a list of weird, random, but completely amazing things I've found coconut oil to do: -Works better than any make-up remover: seriously, just use a nickle size amount or less on your eyes to get all eye make-up off in a flash. -Helps clear up acne: One night after using it to take off my eye make-up I decided to use it as an all over face make-up remover... then decided my face felt so good I didn't want to use anything else (hint: leave the coconut oil on your face for a minute and then get your water and washcloth really really hot to wipe it all away). I googled to see if this was okay to do and it turns out coconut oil can help get rid of acne! You can use it as a facewash. Strange but true. BUT I also found out that Castor Oil works even better for this (and like coconut oil still moisturizes your face and keeps it from drying out), so I've ordered a small bottle of that to use instead in the future... but still, coconut oil has worked really well for me and apparently others. When you have skin like mine (I'm 25) that occassionally breaks out but still is a little dry sometimes it's hard finding the right balance and exactly the right thing to use -I feel like now I've figured out some great secret to getting it right. -You can use it as a deoderant: This one I read online and decided to try on a day where I wasn't really doing anything or working out. It felt weird -like I was putting some kind of lotion or body creme under my arms instead of my normal Secret deoderant. But guess what? It worked! I have since been trying it on days where I actually do work out and it STILL is working. Craziness! It keeps me dry and smelling good the same as my old deoderant did. AND there's no aluminum zirconium (have no idea how to spell that correctly) which I know is now supposedly bad for you (most deoderants still use it though) because it's connected/correlated with Alzheimers. So... an all natural, organic, one ingredient deoderant that feels like a body creme -doesn't get much better than that! Plus my underarms are looking softer/nicer. :) -You can use it on your scalp and hair: Now I've tried this several times and although I DO like the way it moisturizes my hair, I don't like the way my hair looks after I wash it out... it's just kind of lanky/heavy. Not in an extreme way or anything, but I like my hair to have lots of body. So while I do recommend coconut oil to help heal frazzled hair and stimulate hair growth I don't recommend doing it right before any big event in your life... maybe like a few days before so you get the benefit of the moisturized, healthy hair, without any worries about styling it. This is another one where I've looked it up and found that Castor Oil when massaged in the scalp can stimulate hair growth/fast hair growth even better -so now that I've got that bottle on the way to me from amazon I'll probably be using that instead, at least on my scalp. -You can use it as a body creme and even a BODY WASH. Yepp. A body WASH. Sounds crazy, but it makes my skin look SO good. Better than it's ever looked actually. Coconut oil has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties (and of course is moisturizing) and will clean your skin while hydrating it. So no harsh chemicals or detergents touch your skin -and if you have sensitive skin like I do, well this stuff might just be your new best friend, must-have, can't live without it ever, stuff! I used to have a minor skin problem on my arms that I absolutely hated. Just general redness, sensitivity, and tiny little red dots on the tops of my arms (that I've had since childhood). Now I absolutely don't -and it's literally all because of coconut oil. Maybe it's because I'm not putting soaps/bodywash on my skin anymore or maybe it's because coconut oil is really that awesome, but it has basically cured my arms and has made the skin all over my body look amazing! I seriously can't believe how good it makes my skin look! The best thing to do is to literally use it like a body wash all over -rinse off and then either just towel dry and go or towel dry and then reapply again if your skin is dry or it's winter or you live in a dry climate. When you reapply you're going to have to have some kind of small towel to wipe off excess with before you put on clothes. Either way it makes your skin look great. :) You can also use it to shave with apparently but I haven't tried that. I'm using it to make my own homemade body scrubs and of course using it as a body creme and loving it! -You can feed it to your dogs (one tablespoon a day) to make their coats shiny. (I've been giving it to both my dogs, although not every single day and they love it. -It can help you lose weight. Apparently it has a lot of really GOOD for you fats that your body doesn't treat like other fats and it actually helps you lose weight (learned this from Dr. Oz). Plus it tastes good when you cook with it and put it in smoothies. Actually I LOVE it in smoothies, it just adds an extra tropical coconut flavor. :-) -You can use it for Oil Pulling. -You can use it as a lip balm. Plus I know there's so much more but that's all I can think of right now! Basically it's really good stuff that I am now believing everyone should have in their home! :-)

Christmas Stollen has been a tradition in our family for 30 years - recently my mother and father passed away - My sister and I wanted to keep the tradition alive - unfortunately - the Christmas chore of obtaining the Stollen had always been my father's task. I live in Minnesota and all my family lived in Washington, DC - I looked online and inquired around locally - the best I found was the Kuchenmeister Marzipan Christmas Stollen. My Sister and I were able to keep our family tradition going through our first Christmas without our parents. The occasion was poignant, both happy and sad; full of remembrances. The stollen was the highlight of our Christmas morning. Keeping a happy holiday remembrance fresh and joyful in our hearts. We'll be customers for life...

I ordered 3 packages because i love this product. Order was received in a timely manner however I am very disappointed that the seller stooped so low as to take a marker and attempt to hide a year old expiration date! Starbucks however posts expiration dates inside on individual packets as 08.10.2011. I have purchased expired product before and to my taste could not tell any difference in this wonderful product. Just don't attempt to hide stuff!

It not only taste great, it gives a great kick whenever you needed it. I hear it does not add too much calories from cycling pro's :) so, I am good with it.

This is my favorite coconut oil for eating and moisturizing both. It is unrefined virgin coconut oil and has that great coconut smell (and taste!). If you want odorless / tasteless coconut oil - make sure you purchase the REFINED coconut oil. Coconut oil has never made me nauseous and this one is no different - it's one of the best, highest quality oils I've ever had and I highly recommend from everything from cooking (does not degrade at high heat like olive oil) to moisturizing (coconut glow and super shiny hair!). Bought a smaller size initially and went through it in no time flat. The gallon size lasts me a good 3-4 months (cooking and moisturizing). Editing this on 05/19/2012: "perfect price" at the time, by the way, was $56.15 shipped via Amazon Prime. Hello inflation?

Though this product is a little spendy I was pleased with the flavor and that it mixed well with other ingredients. It made homemade ice cream taste much more creamy. Good stuff!

Even though this item is listed under the Gluten free category, it is not. The ingredients state that it contains wheat protein. Do not order this if you need GF food. Bad reviewing by Amazon!

This product is great. I made homemade raisin filled cookies for christmas and my family loves them. The filling tastes just like the homemade kind. You can't buy raising pie filling in stores anymore and I don't exactly have the time to cook the raisins and make my own so I tried this product. It's perfect.

This is the most pitiful excuse for a bonsai that I have ever seen in my life. It consists of a twig in a cheap plastic pot. Nothing at all like the photo. I would never do business with this company again. Amazon should be ashamed for dealing with this company!

It's reasonably priced, tasty and an unusual color. I've replaced my regular table salt with it. I still cook with iodized salt to make sure I get my requirement as I didn't see any indication of iodine content in this product. Amazon delivery was on target as usual.

I ordered this as what is said to be a more bio-available source of chromium and B12, as well as essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements, vs most of the peddled chromium supplements. I haven't tried sprinkling it directly on food but I have enjoyed adding it to my shakes and the flavors it imparts. A blender helps when adding to liquids as it seems to mix about as well as powdered cocoa.

Great for cooking and/or flavor, and easy to calibrate for best results ! It provides for easy transition from table salt to sea salt which is full of minerals and good for health.

My dogs liked this food and they did quite well on it. Only drawback I don't like the smell. I normally feed them the chicken variety. Overall, my dogs have done great on all of the Wellness foods. I saw a difference in my lab puppy's behavior within a day! My senior dog seems to have lost a little of her extra weight and she has a lot of energy for a 13 yr old.

I've used these now in bread and in chummas. Holds up well -- bit more flavor (nuttier) than regular sesame seeds. I like that they come in glass jars rather than plastic for storing over a period of time.

I have tried LOTS of different protein bars. I don't eat those with high sugar alcohol levels and try to find items with as few unnatural ingredients as possible. These have a few ingredients I am not super crazy about, but wow are they good! Easy to take along and really tastes like you are splurging on a candy bar! I would highly recommend.

In general I have always found NOW foods to be a company that takes quality seriously. I have bought flax seed from other sources before, only to find it rancid when I opened the bag. This product was fresh as can be, and has stored well for me since I bought it a few months ago. Not only does NOW sell a fresh product, but Amazon must store it properly or have a very high turnover rate, because the product I received was very fresh. Storage makes a difference with flax. The price for 6 bags was lower than I've seen elsewhere. I store one open bag at a time in my refrigerator and keep the rest in the freezer. They have kept well for me. I use milled flax seed to make a variety of foods, mostly homemade granola and low-carbohydrate, high-fiber baked goods. It serves as a good flour replacer in some recipes.
