I really trust That spicely cayenne powder is the purest out there. I find no ther labels on other products that specify how pure these peppers they are using in their product! I went through a pound of this stuff within 3 months and my digetive issues are all cleared up thanks to the power of this stuff. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to heal themselves naturally!

This is meant to be reusable but after staying outside last summer the plastic just became flimsy. What this means is I couldn't get the lid on it at all this year, it buckled and bent and ended up with a couple holes from the bending. Of course getting the lid on was a nasty struggle before once it's filled, the bait filled water will splash and I don't particularly like the idea of bacteria spores hatching on my hands. If the lid screwed on all this could be averted. It didn't come with a rain guard either.
The bait itself works like a charm, can't complain about that. I think I might make my own container and just buy bait.

I've tried more than ten different brands. I've tried things billed as "stock" and things billed as "broth." I've tried powdered and cubed and pastes and the liquid in a box. So one day I tried these.
I was totally shocked. The flavor was large and complex, not overly salty, and the most like real homemade chicken stock of anything I've tried.
The packs look about like what you would find in a BBQ dipping packet from a fast food restaurant, and are about the same size. It comes out of the pack gelatinous, just like real stock is when it is cold (though I suspect some industrial food magic is involved there). It gradually dissolves in the hot water. I found that it dissolved completely with no difficulty.
I have so far used it to flavor grains when cooking them, in a slowcooker with roasted chicken, and as soup. Delicious every way. Highly recommended.

My kids love Double Chocolate Krave Cereal. It's very chocolatey. The only thing I don't like about it is it will get soft in milk pretty quickly. The crunch just won't be there if I let it soak just a little too long. Otherwise, it's quite tasty.
Also makes a great dry snack. Just grab a handful for a quick pick-me-up.

I used 5 Hour Energy after eight hours at work to complete a twelve hour day. My alertness and energy improved after about ten minutes.I felt great. It works better than a cup of coffee and I felt more alert and the effects lasted longer. I also had no jitters. I will definitely use this product from now on. I received a free sample of 5 Hour Energy from smiley360.5 Hour Energy Energy Shots, Berry, 12 pk

This is my daughter's favorite brand. Beside making the pancakes & the cookies, she adds this flour to some other gf mixes to give the cookies or cakes more rise or fluff. She has used it more than I and has convinced me to do as she does. All Pamela products that she has used she loves.

The smell in the single serve package is a little off putting, but I suspect that that's because it is actually the smell of good, organic coffee. Even brewing, the smell is a bit sharp, but that first cup is...
Wow...
I was shocked drinking it, actually. The flavor was not too terribly robust, but not so weak as to be merely coffee-flavored water. Indeed, the flavor is one which is almost minty, but not overbearingly so. I love my dark, robust coffee (the dark the better) in the mornings when I would rather climb under the bed. This coffee, however, seems to be one that I can drink with just about anything thing, at any time.
As a matter of fact, I'm going to have other cup now.
If you are looking for a fair trade, organic coffee that doesn't taste like it, but will add flavor to your morning without tons of sugar and non-dairy dairy creamer. This is a coffee I could drink without that stuff.
Good stuff!

I had previously been feeding my daughter Similac Organic, but after their recall of their powder products it was difficult for me to find the Organic formula in the liquid form, so I needed to switch brands. I chose Earth's Best and have been extremely happy with that choice. My daughter really likes it and she rarely spits up anymore since I switched. She has reflux and takes medication for it but the difference has been dramatic since she started eating the Earth's Best formula.

We found this at BJ's before I started shopping on Amazon. My wife and I were disappointed with it after having tried the Twinings in the sample pack that came with our brewer. The Twinings is much smoother and balanced than the Bigelow.
When I wrote this, Amazon was out of the Twinings and only one vendor was selling it at nearly double the normal price.

Be warned - this is NOT the product you can sometimes find in your supermarkets. This is a mini-canister with 3 2-quart packs that makes 6 quarts, NOT the full size canister with 6 2-quart packs that makes 12 quarts. I misread it and found out the hard way.

I don't think anyone expects couscous in a box to be spectacular, but this stuff smelled and tasted awful. All of the other flavors we've tried from this brand (chicken, mushroom, Mediterranean curry) were actually pretty decent, so it was a surprise just how awful this one was. Avoid at all cost!

I ORDERED THESE FLOWERS NOT KNOWING AMAZON HAD AN OPTION AND PLACE TO PUT A MESSAGE TO MY GIFT RECIPIENT, AND REALIZED AFTER I HAD ORDERED THAT THERE WAS AN OPTION. I REALLY WANTED TO PUT A SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR MY MOTHER IN LAW ON MOTHERS DAY SO I CONTACTED THE VENDOR AND THEY RUSHED AND PUT MY SPECIAL MESSAGE ON THE FLOWERS PRIOR TO DELIVERY WITHOUT CHARGING ME ANY EXTRA. WHEN MY MOTHER IN LAW RECEIVED THEM - SHE COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW BEAUTIFUL THE ROSES WERE AND HOW LONG THEY LASTED. WE MADE HER WEEK - WE ACTUALLY MADE HER 2 WEEKS BECAUSE THEY LASTED THAT LONG! SHE SENT US PICTURES OF THE FLOWERS EVERY DAY SHOWING US HOW STUNNING THEY WERE AND STILL WERE AND STILL WERE... I WOULD DEFINITELY PURCHASE THESE AGAIN!

The item pictured may be the old, brown box, but the product delivered is the newly formulated Black Currant and Walnut cereal. Hmmmm. I wonder why they took out the added Vitamins and minerals? And the ingredient list is not quite the same - and now seems to upset my tummy like the high protein 'Crunch' cereals do. Not nearly as badly though.... Still. It is the only cereal with black currants that I know of. The real 'super fruit'.

Our 6 year old German Shepherd was a rescue that started out with Parvovirus. He is thin and a picky eater but really likes Gravy Train. Could not find a local retailer that sold it (until recently) so I turned to Amazon and found the Gravy Train. We got a huge bag that lasted until we found a local place. The bag was in good condition and food was fresh. Happy dog!

Dear Amazon,
Thank you very much for the order of Rockstar Drinks that I had ordered! Rockstar is my favorite drink and I was sooooo HAPPY to find it on Amazon for a very cheap price! I couldn't believe it! The Shipping was very fast and the drinks were great and between my Husband and I, were gone within five days! It was exceptional service and exceptional price! I would DEFINITELY order my Rockstars from Amazon again!!! Thank you!! ;)Rockstar Energy Drink, 16 Ounce Can (Pack of 24)

Regular oreos are good but the golden ones are way better. First you don't have that embarrassing dark pieces stuck between your teeth like regular Oreos. And the golden just have a better flavor.

I think the packaging is ingenious -- who would have thought to put great meat juices into what looks like a bottle of roll on deodorant!
YAAAA -- 10 points for ingenuity ! And the dogs love licking the little roller.

I originally found the big jar of these at Costco. They had them for about a minute and then they were gone. Thank goodness for Amazon, because I'm hooked on these almonds. If you like anything salt & vinegar, you'll love 'em! Now if Amazon could offer the large economy-size jar, all would be right with the world.

I enjoy the Newman's Own Pretzels on a regular basis and decided to start buying them by the case as my local grocery store stopped carrying them. The first two cases I bought from a different distributor were fine, however in the last case I purchased from Amazon, all the pretzels tasted stale, although the bags weren't out of expiration and didn't appear to be opened. I was very disappointed with this batch.

I purchased this Bonsai as a gift for my Grandmother, who's an artist. I thought it would be cool to see how creative she can be when pruning the tree. She said she received the Bonsai well packaged and healthy. She also states it's easy to care for and it's growing well. When she prunes it, I will upload pics.

My Shih Tzu is seven and has had one Greenie a day for years. She is happy, healthy and has great teeth. She begs for her Greenie every morning. Don't worry about Greenies causing allergies! The main source of allergies is CORN in dog food. Do your little one a favor and go to a grain free or reduced grain dog food. When you think about it, wild dogs didn't eat corn meal! If your little one has allergies, you will be amazed at the immediate healing.

This tea is my go to tea for everyday! It is nearly indestructible! I've forgotten about it and it has steeped for 15 minutes and still tastes great! I can brew it, put it in my travel mug, go to the gym and an hour and a half later it still tastes great! Can't beat the value either at about $5 a bag. If I recall correctly it is about $7 at the Stash store in Oregon. This is the tea that got me drinking green tea!

Recommend this, even if you are someone NOT watching your sodium intake. I even make sure I keep this in my car for whenever I eat out at some restaurant--much, much better than any other kind of salt combinations or spices. Wish the BACON SALT people would see about getting their product into places like: LONGHORN STEAK HOUSE, CHILI's, APPLEBEES, BOB EVANS, OLIVE GARDEN, FUDDRUCKERS, etc. People would be placing orders for it like crazy!
Thanks, BACON SALT dudes!

This was a really nice, refreshing drink. The strawberry-watermelon blend was sweet but not too much so, and it has just a little carbonation that makes it a little edgier than plain juice. The best part of it is that it didn't have the overwhelming grape or pear taste that natural juice products usually have. A lot of the others use grape or pear syrup to get the sweetness and it overwhelms the flavor you actually paid for. This one tasted exactly like strawberries and watermelon. I'll definitely be buying these in the future, and I hope they make them available in a large size, too.

I picked up a bag of these locally (not on Amazon) for my bf's treat-driven English Setter. He needed to take pills for a few weeks to clear up a skin condition, but half the time he would spit the pill out. First time trying the pill pockets and he gobbled it right down. Never had a problem giving the pills again. I guess for a dog who is picky about treats it might not work, but for ours it was a perfect solution. He thought he was getting a delicious treat.

This is the best chai latte available for k-cups but it is still a step back from getting a chai at a coffee shop. I think it's the powdered milk or the sweetener used that I taste differently, but the spice mix is spot on if you use the small cup setting. The big cup setting can dilute the flavor a bit and make it taste weak.
If I'm headed into work and I want a chai, I'll still stop at starbucks and get one because the gap is big enough that it's worth the extra money to get a freshly made chai.

We like the vanilla and chocolate and usually like strawberry milk we purchase at the supermarket but this had too strange a flavor. I find Organic Valley's "competitor" on Amazon has a little better flavors in their brand. This being said...we do like the chocolate flavor the best in Organic Valley.

Degree's Silver Ion deodorant was one of the few I could use, because I am allergic to the aluminum compounds in antiperspirants in most deodorants. Degree discontinued the Silver Ion series and I was very disappointed, but learned that the Time Released Degree replaced the Silver Ion with the silver in it. I love it!

Similar to the caveat I placed at the start of my recent Amazon Vine review of some running shoes, let me state that I'm not an expert on the health benefits of various types of bottled water. I'm just going to tell you whether I liked the taste of this product and communicate any other layman's benefits that occur to me. Fair enough?
Anyway, I did like the taste of this Essentia water, though it's quite different from the crisper, more minerally (if that's a word) brands of bottled water I usually buy. This water is very soft (or silky, as the description on the bottle says), giving me a smoother, creamier thirst-quenching experience than the harder, splashier sensation I am used to when tossing back some bottled water. But variety is the spice of life, right?
The big, 1.5 liter bottles are convenient, not so huge that they're hard to store in the fridge or on the counter (I put a few bottles in each location, so I'd have both cold and room-temperature water always available), but large enough that you don't constantly have to pop open a new bottle to get a little water.
I still prefer water that, for whatever reason (a different pH level, higher mineral content, blah, blah, blah), tastes harder and crisper, but I'd get this water from time to time to taste something different. If you're into softer, silkier water on a more regular basis, though, this Essentia water will probably be a particularly big hit with you.
Like I said at the outset, however, I don't have much to say about the health benefits of this Essentia product. Perhaps you can combine my mainly taste-oriented review with another review or two that credibly addresses your health questions, and you'll get a good sense about whether this water is for you. Good luck!

This is my third order within 2 months from Amazon on the Jim Beam Jalapeno Sunflower seeds. I went though average a pack a day for the first two orders, the seeds are not that spicy and salty outside, and so flavorful inside. It's so addicative and I was so happy that I finally found my favor snack. I gave both 5 star reviews on the first two orders.
Now this order I received is a totally different story, same brand; same package; but taste so different (the bad way) that I thought I ordered from some other brands. The package does say it's roasted by BIGs now, It's really Salty and spicy outside, but inside has no taste at all. I opened the first bag two days ago and still have more than half left. I dun know when am I going to finish all 12 packs of them, but I am sure I won't be ordering Jim Beam sunflower seed again.

Enfamil advertised this product as having the same trust ingredients so I assumed that milk (or equivalent) would be the first ingredient. I bought this giant box and realized after feeding this stuff to my son for a few days that the first ingredient is CORN SYRUP SOLIDS! The box says that there are easily digestible carbohydrates but technically corn syrup (fructose) is sugar and not a complex carbohydrate. The equivalent with Similac also has corn syrup as the first ingredient. I have stopped using Enfamil and I am now using Gerber Good Start Gentle (first ingredient whey protein). It doesn't really work that well and it takes forever to dissolve but at least I am not feeding my kid corn syrup.

This is better than diet but falls short of brand name cola taste. I feel the cola flavor is a little "spicy" and not fruity enough. I tried a few mixin's and now I think it is great. If it came as good as I can mix it, I would give it five stars. If you decide to try this product, get some True Lemon or Lime, True Orange, stevia packets (with a high level, 90% or better, of steviosides for cleaner,sweeter flavor, and a bottle of cherry snow cone syrup if you like cherry cola. I use a half packet of lemon and Orange, 1 packet of stevia, and a short squirt of cherry per liter bottle. Now the flavor falls between generic and brand name. Cheaper than using cans, but not cheaper than using two liter bottles. The calorie count is about a third of normal cola. You have to be comfortable with Splenda and Ace-K as Soda Stream uses those to offset some of the sugar (not corn Syrup a plus). Thankfully no Nutrasweet/aspartame as I get terrible headaches from that.

Now that reports are all over saying how Agave is processed and "read" by your body the same as High Fructose Corn Syrup, I've stopped using that.
There are loads of information of artificial sweeteners, with some other countries banning them.
Then there is Stevia.
First, do NOT taste any Stevia product right out of the packet to judge it. Stevia is far sweeter than sugar or artificial sweeteners so it will just be "too much" pouring it in your mouth or tasting it straight. However, on food or in coffee it's excellent.
I would have thought there isn't much more to say on that until I recently tried Stevia in the Raw and felt it bad enough to write a comparison review.
Do I think Truvia is too expensive? Yes. Why can't a competitor surface and charge less? I haven't yet found one.
I thought I had but then found that Stevia in the Raw is not raw--it's mixed with Dextrose which is a form of glucose. Then I found that a box of 50 packets of Stevia in the Raw weighs 1.75 ounces whereas a box of Truvia weighs 4.9. This wouldn't matter except for there really isn't nearly enough Stevia in the Raw in one packet to sweeten anything. They truly gave you WAY less in every packet to make the price seem better in getting 50 packets. Put 1/4 of the amount in every packet and you have to use 4 packs of Stevia in the Raw to equal one packet of Truvia.
Come on people...bring on a real competitor. I want better pricing but so far Truvia is the only thing I'll use. I have found other Stevia products in spoonable form but my grocery has no other ones in packets of any other brand and I prefer packets.

...but I love these things! Bagged pork rinds from the grocery are beyond disgusting. They don't look, smell or taste appealing. But fresh nuked pork rinds are a very different story. These pigskins come out toasty and, dare I say it? Delicious! Significantly lighter and more airy than their grocery store counterparts. "They" say you can use them to scoop up salsa or dip, but they're very good on their own, and I think the porky taste wouldn't go well with salsa anyway. Maybe french onion dip - I'll have to try that.
These pork rinds seemed fairly salty to me. But when I crave chips and such, it's usually the salt (and crunch) that I'm really after, so it wasn't a problem. Microwaving pork rinds - who knew?

If you like dark, strong coffee, this is your best bet for Tassimo. I love this stuff.
That said: recent news reports have Kraft and Starbucks ending their relationship, so Starbucks T-Discs may soon go away. Since nobody knows for sure what will happen to the Tassimo part of their arrangement, don't but a Tassimo machine just for Starbucks until the dust settles on the Kraft/Sbux divorce!

This is honestly the best tasting cereal out there. It's plenty chocolately, which also means it's quite sugary, but surprisingly, its sugar content is 8g per serving, which is less than a lot of cereals (specifically, the sugary kids' cereals). Depending on how you feel about sugar, I wouldn't count on it being a "healthy" breakfast food, but it sure makes a tasty one. It's also an excellent snack. I hate to admit it, but I can eat (and have eaten) a whole box of these in a single day - by myself.
Regarding the gluten free issue - all the boxes I've received (and have purchased in local stores) say on them that they are gluten free. I believe that the other reviewers are taking issue with the ingredients list posted on this product description page, as opposed to an ingredients list directly from the box. This is, therefore, not an issue with the Chex, but with Amazon's description. The ingredients list is posted online by General Mills here: [...]

The noodles that come with this pack are already cooked and soft and vacuum-sealed. They're like authentic fresh udon noodles. Just don't overcook them, no more than three minutes at a full boil, otherwise they get too soggy/soft. The soup base is rather plain (as with all of their flavors) but it isn't meant to taste like oriental-style ramen noodle soup seasoning packets. This really is meant to be garnished with vegetables for a more complete meal, otherwise it doesn't seem very substantial. One serving per package. About 280 cal and 1.5 grams (1500 mg) sodium per pack/serving. OUCH! But that's common for these soups anyway.

If you're expecting something sweet, and almost syrupy like a slightly watered down version of coconut milk -- you're in for a shock. This has a much lighter taste, just a hint of coconut rather than an overwhelming flavor, but I really enjoyed it. It's satisfying but not really all that sweet. It's especially good when it's icy, icy cold -- a real unexpected taste on a summer day.

This gum has Maltitol in it which can cause gastric distress to people sensitive to this ingredient. It also has Mannitol and Sorbitol, these are all within the first 4 ingredients of the gum! Be careful if you are sensitive to these sweetener replacements. Just chewing 2 pieces gave me an upset stomach within an hour of chewing. My mistake, I should have paid better attention to the list of ingredients on package.

My two dogs (shih tzu and malkie) love these. They are more crunchy than jerky, which concerned me at first, but the 'girls' handle nicely. They receive one treat per day and this is usually it. I also love that it's made in the USA. I have repurchased several times and highly recommend.

I was looking for a way to avoid the HFCS in soda without giving it up entirely. Instead of using the home brew method, I make soda using cans of seltzer. For regular root beer I use 3 TBS of sugar. For diet I use 1 tsp of Stevita Stevia. I mention the brand only because different stevias vary in sweetness. I mix a small amount of hot water with the sweetener in a glass until it is dissolved, then add 1/4 tsp of McCormick Root Beer Concentrate. To that I add a 12 oz can of seltzer and ice. Tastes great and only takes a few minutes to mix it up. Fast and convenient! Another favorite of mine is to use 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract instead of the Root Beer Concentrate to make cream soda.

My wife and I tried this conditioner several times and enjoyed it. We felt that our hair was more vibrant, stronger, and had more volume than usual. We like the fragrance and found that it lasted for hours. Our hair was easy to rinse after using the conditioner and looked good. We also liked the design of the bottle.

Scottish Breakfast Tea is a very robust tea. Although probably not a purist way to drink it, I like it with lemon and sugar which both enhance the slightly smokey flavor. A great tea for making a pot in the evening, but it is good any time. If you like Liptons or Red Rose, Scottish Breakfast Tea is not for you. If you want serious tea, this is the right stuff. One more comment - it is easier to buy it through Amazon than it is through the English Tea Store. Go figure.

Not the best Earl Grey I have tasted but certainly acceptable for regular drinking. The exceptional price makes it a great value. Stronger Bergamot than other Early Grey's I have tried. I didn't find the smokiness other have described. Perhaps the quality varies from batch to batch. I stick to the instructions and use one rounded teaspoon per 8 ounce cup or it gets bitter for me. Makes for a lighter cup than other Earl grey's but that is what I like about it.

These are pretty interesting... They aren't that good at all. We bought them on a road trip, and landed at a hotel one night. All the fast food places were closed, so we ate what was left of our food... two packages of these. My daughter (who is GFCF) had opened them and spit them out... my sister and I ate them, and gagged... but, we were hungry (ha)...
They have the pretzel crunch, but the taste is off... Maybe if there was more salt.. or flavor..
I wouldn't but them again.

SHIPPING
As was stated by many others, the shipping for this product is too hard on the cans. Of my four cans, one was nearly undamaged. One had cosmetic damage in the form of a dented side. The other two were dented to the extent of having sharp creases in the bottom and flaws near the seal lines at the top. I never buy cans like those at the supermarket.
COOKING
The cooking went much better than I expected. The evening before, I put 1/4 cup chopped black walnuts, 10 pitted prunes cut into pieces with scissors, and two cups of water into my saucepan. I brought this mixture to a boil over a simmering-level flame on my propane stove. I dumped in one-half-cup of McCann's steel cut oats and stirred. I waited for the mixture to come to a boil again, stirred it a little, turned off the flame, put a lid on the saucepan, and went to bed. In the morning I was surprised to find that it was perfectly edible with no further cooking. I did heat it up again on the stove before serving but it stuck to the pot, so I think in the future I will microwave it right in the bowls just before serving it.
EATING
These oats were good, but it was hard to say if they were "nuttier" in flavor than the Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats which I had been eating because I cooked them both with nuts. The texture was of course firmer. I do like bulgar wheat and these oats are more like that in texture. Since I was careful not to overcook the rolled oats, there was not much difference in the "slime" feel of the two, but the rolled oats were papery much like eating raw oatmeal cookie dough.
NUTRITION
I found little difference between the nutritional content listed on the McCann steel cut can and that listed on the Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats container. I had to do some Internet research to find the differences which turn out to be subtle but important for certain types of health conditions. There is also the likelihood of the product simply being fresher due to less processing and better packaging at the mill.
REPEAT PURCHASE
Now that I have found that the cooking of steel cut oats is much less intimidating than I had imagined, I will probably eat these in preferance to rolled oats in the future. The possibility of adding them to soups and other cooked entrees in place of barley or bulgar wheat is a bonus. However, I will probably try a more economical source as I am not convinced that Ireland's soil is superior to that in any other region in which oats are farmed, and metal cans with sharp creases and bent seams don't seem worth the extra cost.

This is one of my favorite coffees. I used to buy it ground in bags locally but they stopped carrying it. It's smooth, light and not bitter at all. Beautiful caramel/nutty undertones give it a very nice after taste. I just wish this wasn't as expensive. I've recently been hooked on Tully's Kona Blend because I can get it locally at reasonable prices.

My title says it all- Its a great deal for nori.
Also, in general, sea vegetables do wonders for your health. I credit eating nori and dusle every day to helping solve my previous low energy issues.

I'm sure its matter of personal preference, but I think cytomax goes down the smoothest on a bike ride. It has all the essential nutrients electrolytes you need to replace and has some carbs for energy. All the people I ride with like it.

This cofee is perfect for me. Not really dark but robust enough that I can taste the roast. I drink this as my everyday coffee.

I've been buying these individually for twice the price from our local feed store. My dogs are very picky and they really love these. My dogs will be happy they can have it a little more frequently now that I found it on Amazon.

My dog trainer recommended this to our obedience class. I found the best price here on Amazon, and my puppy LOVES the treats. Great training treats if used in moderation (too much organ meat isn't good for anyone). Also excellent if you put some of the treats in a container with non-liver treats/cookies. Use the container as a shaker to help train your dog to come, and the other treats get a liver flavored (dust) coating that makes your dog love them even more! No limit on liver dusted treats!
Two paws up for this stuff!

Ordered these for my husband for Valentine's Day. They are one of his favorite candies and they are hard to find. He was so excited when he opened them. They taste and smell so good!

***For the person with 1 star It states quite clearly on their site FAQ:
DOES THIS FOOD CONTAIN ETHOXYQUIN?
Taste of the Wild Pet Foods sources all protein meals (chicken meal, fish meal, etc) from vendors that do not use ethoxyquin. As always, only natural preservatives are used in our manufacturing process to preserve the foods.
So why someone would review this and give it 1 star is beyond me! I started to use this after my smooth coat chihuahua Herbie seemed a little sickly. I didnt realize soy and grain is not a good thing for our animals. I previously used Royal Canin. He's full of energy and his coat is darker and shiny! We also augment his food with the Tast Of The Wild Wetlands food and he loves that also. The high protein content means the animal will be less hungry and consume less food in the long run. Think about it if you eat chicken or steak your less hungry than if you ate a bunch of rice because carbs get burned quickly. BUY this food your doggy will thank you for it!

Both my cats, a 2 year old and a 5 month old, love this food! I have tried a couple of the Felidae foods and my cats have devoured them all. I prefer the salmon version, but it can be a bit cost prohibitive. I feel good about feeding my cats the grain-free Felidae products, and they aren't as pricey as others I've seen. I highly recommend this product.

I have a click drink every morning for breakfast blended with ice, water, banana and frozen cherries. This keeps my energy level until snack time and it has helped raise some of my bloodwork vitamin levels to within normal. This is the best protein drink I have found and I love it.

My boyfriend and I both realized within the last year or so that we enjoyed Starbucks brand coffee best in our house, so it's one of our splurges. Since I work from home, I don't hit the coffee shops, I need to get my fix from the kitchen. He's also started bringing a travel mug to work instead of stopping off at a shop, so we find it's necessary to buy coffee we REALLY like. I was thrilled to try this and it didn't disappointed.
I expected something like the usual vanilla flavored coffee. But this was more subtle and natural tasting. It was a startling surprise from what I'm used to when buying flavored coffees. There was nothing fake or overly sweet about it. Boyfriend also said he liked it a lot, which I didn't expect since he's not really a flavored coffee kinda person. Delicious coffee, and I look forward to trying the other fusion flavors.

These have much more flavor and taste than regular tortilla chips. Always a hit when friends come over and we put out the snacks. Top quality ingredients; brown rice, oat fiber, sunflower seeds etc. are what give this product the taste to start a conversation. Serve with fresh veggies and a good dip, always a crowd pleas-er! I certainly would recommend this product to anyone who is trying to eat more healthy food with great flavor.

They REALLY need to post the length of these bones so no one else gets the wrong idea. I was a little disappointed when i saw how small they are. Perfect for anything the size of a toy dog (10 lbs or less) anything more than that there would be a risk of choking.

tasty but not the best drink. the chocolate flavor is strong but more like carob than chocolate. the powder is hard to get to dissolve by stirring, however putting it through the vita-mix gets it pretty smooth! I am happy to support a company out of sebastopol, ca and to get added nutrients in my shakes but this recipe could be tuned up to make it work out properly.

I bought this vinegar along with 2 others to make my own vinegar sampler to send to my father for Christmas. I wish that since I bought all the vinegars from the same place that they would have shipped them together, but no, they shipped them all separately. The vinegar is good though.

I ordered this on a subscription basis from Amazon -- they send me a couple of boxes every two months. I originally purchased it because I'm trying to get away from the sucralose, etc. chemical products. This fits the bill, more natural than the alternatives.
I have a nagging question on price though. This product comes in a smaller package than Splenda and the rest of the sugar substitutes. Plus, it's a more powdery formulation so I have to use more packets than I do when using the other sugar substitutes.
Since I'm an avid price-comparer these two facts make SweetLeaf's price difficult to compare. I have a feeling I'm paying a lot more than I should be for it, so I'm cancelling my subscription and purchasing liquid Stevia at Whole Foods.
If price doesn't matter, there is certainly nothing wrong with this product.

Thank you Amazon for having such great prices for this Qualita Oro coffee. Lavazza certainly live up to the hype. An amazing blend, buttery, strong but not overly sweet. This is the only bean that lives in my Moka maker. Fantastic smell and color when you pop the lid. No bitterness, just a full strong taste. Even the after taste is extremely pleasant. I usually prefer tea, but I will have this at least twice a day. The Qualita Oro is my favorite out of the Lavazza line. It is finely ground, but matches a Moka stovetop maker perfectly. This may be too fine for a coffee machine though. No regrets, I always keep at least 8 tins in the kitchen. This is one of my favorite items to stock up on.

I first found this rootbeer in Madison Wisconsin and immediately fell in love!! I have tried every brand of rootbeer I have come across and nothing comes close. Somebody was talking about Virgil's rootbeer and I know it has all these premium ingredients but the flavor is not there. I don't care about premium ingredients I care about taste!!! If you love rootbeer then you have to try Sprecher's!!! Only problem is once you try it you will not want anything else.

Not sure if they were ot not but they didn't have the great crunch the 'real' full fat product they resemble has. They are like that product after it has gotten stale. It looks like it but the artificial cheese taste, which never bothers me in other lite products, just makes it worse. If they could work on the stale-like texture I could get used to the taste. I am totally sold on the Snikiddy Grilled Puffs so there is no reason to ever order these again. Big disappointment. I can eat them so they don't get wasted but no point in spending good mney if there is an alternative in my opinion and I am a HUGE fan of lite snacks.

I cannot believe that these are gluten free. They taste exactly like "regular" pretzels, maybe even better. By far the best gluten free item we've ever tried.

Decided to give this a try since k-cup (all coffee?) prices have been going up. Brewed with the large mug (not tumbler) size on my Keurig B70. It isn't as dark as Peet's from my ekobrew adapter, but that might be because Peet's does a darker roast. Stronger than Green Mtn Colombian. Maybe about the same as Dark Magic.
Coworkers agreed that we'll probably buy more since we don't have to do any coupons from other vendors to get good coffee at this price.

My dog would do anything for his liver treats! ...and whenever any of his playmates are out for a walk they drag their owners to our house so they can have a liver treat as well (in fact most of their owners now buy it for them). It is healthy, a great training treat, and they all love it!

I've enjoyed the Bigelow Plantation Mint tea for years. I've tried other brands of mint, and I always come back to this one. It has a very pleasant, soothing mint flavor. It's the only hot tea I drink without adding sugar. It's hard to find locally, so I decided to check Amazon, and they had it by the pack of six boxes. Each tea bag is in a sealed pouch, so it lasts a long time. Plus, it was cheaper to buy this way than when I could find it by the single box in a store. If you like mint tea, you'll love this one.

I've been a fan of the Turbo Tea drinks for a while, but Diet Green Tea is my favorite. The taste is really good and it doesn't make me jittery or give me a stomach ache like some other energy drinks.
