Special K Bars, Chocolatey Pretzel, 6-Count Bars Net Wt 4.6 Oz (Pack of 6)

We love these bars. Sweet, salty, low calories. They don't have much of that "soy protein isolate" taste, which is good! The texture is great and it is definitely a treat - and it has a decent amount of fiber in it! Recommended!

These are quite good 90 calories each .77 ounces. Taste like chewy chocolate covered pretzels. Very satisfying. Currently not available on Amazon. I found at Walmart for $2.50 per box of 6.

Here's the thing: these bars are delicious. They are salty, sweet, and definitely hit the spot if you have that kind of craving. The problem is, as a "diet" item, they're terrible. The temptation to eat more than one in a sitting is high, and if you're able to resist the urge to eat more than one, you still want to go back to the kitchen to look for something else to munch on. Something about the combination of chocolate and pretzel just begs for over-indulgence. If you're serious about a diet, don't buy these. However, if you have more self-control and can be satisfied with a small 90-calorie bar, go for it. You definitely won't be disappointed.

Sometimes when I want a snack, I crave something salty, and sometimes I crave something sweet. This fits the bill at only 90 calories. Amazon doesn't show the nutritional information for this bar, so for those who are concerned, I will point out that the ingredients include both corn syrup and partially hydrogenated oil.

For those who like these chocolate bars but are looking for a change of pace, I'd also like to recommend the delicious Health Valley Tart, Chocolate, Multigrain, 6-Count 8.5-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6). It's got 130 calories but no corn syrup or partially hydrogenated oil. In fact, unlike Special K, all of the ingredients are pronounceable.

I've already gone through several boxes of these amazing little bars! They're SO good--the perfect blend of sweet and salty--and I can't believe that they're only 90 calories each :). Excellent snack, definitely worth buying.

BuyWell 100% Fair Trade, Organic Coffee Blends, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 3) GROUND

Our household only buys Fair Trade coffee, and as many will know it can be difficult to find much selection. I am SO happy to have found BuyWell! To start with, it's just great coffee there's a good range of milder to darker roasts, and so far every one I've tried (three different blends) has been fabulous. Add in the fact that it's Fair Trade AND Organic, and I'm even happier and to cap it off, the bags I have seen are stamped with the Green E (the company buys 100% certified renewable energy). I don't think I need to look any more we have found our coffee supplier!

I have to say, however, that I'm a little surprised at Amazon's prices I can get four different blends in my local supermarket (HEB, in Houston, TX) for $6.99 per 12oz bag I'm surprised Amazon can't beat this. I'd love to put this on my Subscribe and Save list but while the prices are so much better in-store I think I'll stick to buying it there. I'll quickly add, however, that this coffee is worth the Amazon price if you can't get it elsewhere! Give it a try you won't regret it.

UPDATE (May 11, 2013) I'm now having a much harder time getting this product in stores, so internet sources seem to be my best bet. Even now, when I'm paying a bit more than I was, this coffee is worth it :)

My fiance and I really enjoy BuyWell Coffee, this pack is great! The Screaming Monkey is my favorite with the bright flavor really gets me going in the morning! And the Blackbird makes a great espresso my fiance loves it! We only support Fair Trade coffees and we have really loved the selections from this company and so glad We can get them on Amazon.BuyWell 100% Fair Trade Organic Coffee Blends, Whole Bean, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 3)

All three varieties were delicious, with their own distinct flavor and aroma. One minor quibble: I had to regrind one bag due to whole beans still floating about. Other than that, a home run and a pretty good value.

Pocono Organic Cream of Buckwheat Cereal (6x13 oz.) ( Value Bulk Multi-pack)

Don't let the name fool you. This is not related to wheat at all.

You must try this if you have digestive problems of any sort.

It does not have the taste of regular buckwheat. It is delicious.

I can't eat corn and try to avoid 'enriched' foods but I loved grits. This is just as good and is a great replacement for grits. It goes great with eggs.

It is also a great help if you rotate foods for allergy reasons. It is easy to digest and so is a food for anybody of any age. It even makes a great baby food.

Natural Health TIPS

I eat this several times a week for breakfast. It has a slightly nutty taste and is delicious. It keeps me full all morning. I find it tastes better when I cook some chopped nuts in with the buckwheat.

One 18 oz (510 g) Organic Whole Grain, Kasha

The product is hard to find in the US stores and more of a novelty in the States. The flavor is superior to non-roasted buckwheat (IMO). Coming from former Soviet Block, where buckwheat is very common, it is good to find this on Amazon. The small downside is that it has little more than expected kernels' skins. Did not find any small stones or anything as oppose to non-roasted buckwheat from Red Mill.

It is an okay cereal. It has tiny grains after being cooked, which I am not fond of....I like more of an oatmeal consistency. It doesn't have much of a taste, especially in the way of being roasted.

I will finish them off by mixing them with my steel cut oatmeal and not bother to buy them again.

Raw Organic Lydia's Grainless Apple Cereal-1 lbs.

I was really missing cereal after going grainless. Since this cereal is full of nuts and seeds it is a bit high in calories, so I wouldn't recommend pouring yourself a huge bowl of the stuff. I have a quarter cup of this cereal drenched in unsweetened almond milk with a light drizzle of agave nectar (maybe a teaspoon). Makes for a really yummy and lite breakfast or snack. Just know that even though it says "cereal" in the title doesn't mean it tastes like frosted flakes.

I am grain free and I love this cereal. It tastes good, doesnt have any sugar or agave syrup in it. Its perfect for mornings on the go. I think it tastes awesome.

I really like this and my son (13) does as well. It is healthy and tastes good. I thought it was too pricey at first (10 dollars), but a bag really does go farther than you think. It is high calorie food, so you don't need that much and the energy you get from it last a long time because it is loaded with good fats. I am thankful it is not loaded with a bunch of sweeteners. It taste good naturally. It is hard to find natural foods of this nature that aren't drowned in agave. Overall it is a great product.

Dorset Cereals Muesli, Berries and Cherries, 11.46-Ounce (Pack of 5)

We love Dorset cereals and the Berries and Cherries variety is no exception. This Muesli is not overly sweet, pleasantly tart due to the berries, and very filling. My husband prefers it with milk, I tend to enjoy it with my Greek yogurt it's great both ways and definitely a healthier alternative to these sugar ladden cereals found normally in grocery stores.

My only gripe is that Amazon does not carry all the varieties we have the Dorset Cereals Simply Fruit And Seeds, 12-ounces (Pack of 5) on subscription and just wish the others were available for that as well. Are you listening, Amazon?

I am not a cereal eater, but after trying Dorset Berries and Cherries, I think that I will become one. This cereal is so good, my only fear is eating the whole box in one sitting. The taste is amazing, not too sweet, but delicious enough to think it is a treat. I also like the sustainability of the packaging.

This product is amazing. I use this to make muesli similar to what I used to eat at brunch at Movenpick Restaurants in Toronto in the late 1980's and 1990's. This is wonderful mixed with shredded apple, any fruit you want to chop and add, and yogurt with a bit of maple syrup or honey. Dorset cereals other mueslis are very good also.

Want Dorset Cereals Muesli, Berries and Cherries, 11.46-Ounce (Pack of 5) Discount?

Dorset makes a decent muesli. The problem with this one is the misleading name "Berries and Cherries." In actuality, almost all of the fruit in it is nothing but raisins... and that's why it tastes like nothing but raisins.

Take a look at the ingredients... the first 3 are: "raisins (16%)", "sultanas (16%)" (a type of raisin!), "flame raisins (14%)" (a different type of raisin!). If you add that all up, nearly half of the cereal is raisins. Plus they add currant flavoring to the flakes (yet another type of raisin).

What about the "berries and cherries"? Only 1.5% is a mix of sugar and cranberries, 0.5% cherries, 0.3% raspberries. That's it. No wonder why you can't taste any of those berries in it at all! Why did they do this? Because raisins are cheap and those other berries/cherries are expensive. (Seitenbacher makes great fruit muesli is that's what you're looking for.)

So only buy this if you really love raisins. If that's what you're looking for, you'll love it. But they really need to change the name.

Dr. McDougall's Right Foods Organic Instant Oatmeal, Light Apple Cinnamon, 8-Count Boxes (Pack of 6)

Love the big chunks of apple and awesome cinnamon taste. Tastes like apple pie oatmeal. Great when cooked per the directions for perfect consistency. My 12 year old even loved it straight out of the bag, and he eats it as cold cereal too.

It was nice to find an organic instant oatmeal with way less added sugar than the others on the market, with about 6g of total sugars compared to the others at about 13g. Those other "healthy" organic oatmeals tasted like candy to me.

As expected, McDougall's tastes noticeably less sweet. Instead, you taste the oats and the apples. I'm very pleased with this product.

We have been eating this and the maple brown sugar for about 2 years now. It has the best flavor of any reduced sugar oatmeal we have tried, except the Quaker oatmeal. The Quaker has added chemicals and preservatives though, and we are not willing to sacrifice the ingredients. I recommend this oatmeal!

Want Dr. McDougall's Right Foods Organic Instant Oatmeal, Light Apple Cinnamon, 8-Count Boxes (Pack of 6) Discount?

Thank god you get 48 of these packets. These are amazingly good. The key for me, who prefers thicker (not watery) oatmeal, is to put just enough water in it to cook, not to be liquidy. This makes the flavors pop. The apples are chewy and do not taste processed. The cinnamon is so good, especially at the bottom of the cup. This is definitely a great product. I LOVE the fact that its got half the sugar and is actually healthy. If you do weight watchers, a packet is 2 points. I typically do 2 packets in a cup at work. Its a great snack, late breakfast, etc. Sooo good, and organic!

Compared to other protein bars I have tried these were very tasty and at 20 grams of protein they are above average in protein content. I think the price is a bit high, but I haven't been able to find it any cheaper at local outlets.
