Stoneridge Orchards Whole Dried Raspberries, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 2)

Oh my good god. These are quite possibly *the* most delicious things I have ever eaten.

In my life.

I came across these raspberries last year at a Costco here in SoCal, and then to my dismay they recently stopped carrying them. I've since been searching EVERYWHERE, and I am THRILLED to finally find them here!

No other brand of dried fruit can compare. Their blueberries and cherries are also excellent (and I usually don't care for either).

Highly highly HIGHLY recommended!!

Was disappointed with the amount of added sugar in this product. Not a viable replacement for the frozen raspberries we currently enjoy. If you are looking for something sweeter than plain ol' raspberries that do not require refrigeration, then these might be exactly what you are looking for.

I bought this thinking it was going to be a good healthy snack of raspberries. I was surely mistaken. The raspberries are coated with sugar, and other syrupy stuff and it tastes like you are eating gummy bears! GROSS!

I am enjoying these in many ways, it is my favorite fruit. I will certainly buy again.

i LOVE these raspberries. absolutely delicious and addictive. thing is...whole dried and organic don't make up for the fact that they add sugar -and calories -to something that really doesn't need it. at the very least, can't you please cut the sugar in half? then you'd have a customer for life.

Apple Syrup

Info provided doesn't disclose that this is spiced apple syrup. I wish someone in the US would make just plain apple syrup. I have to get it from Canada

Apple Cinnamon Sugar-Free High Fiber Hot Cereal, 14 oz. bag by Sensato Foods

This product is really good and doesn't raise my blood sugar. I did give it a 5 star, because the cereal itself is good. On the other hand, I tried ordering 2 of these to save on shipping and the company won't let me do that. They charge shipping on each item ordered. Most all companies on Amazon split cost and box together to save shipping fees. The shipping cost on this cereal is not worth ordering it at all if you can get something similar close to or where you live. I can't get anything like this here where I live, and sadly to say the shipping makes the total price compared to amount of product I get (10 servings per bag, 1/2 cup per serving) not something I probably won't re order again.

I like to eat this cereal because I'm a low carber and this is high protein/low carb. This is not for everyone! My hubby had to fix this for me while I was recovering from surgery and he absolutely hated the smell, look, and texture of it.

If you are a serious low carb eater, and like the cinnamon flavor, this is a great alternative to oatmeal for you!

I eat a lot of sugar free and low carb food products and while most are an aquired taste this product is absolutely horrid. It smells and tastes like a blend of furniture polish and an old ladies perfume.

Familia Swiss Crunch Museli, Multigrain Cereal, 11-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)

This cereal has just about everything: great crunch, lots of interesting "bits" (cranberries, nuts, etc.), and it's wonderfully filling. Two-thirds of a cup doesn't sound like a lot, but with this stuff and 1/2 C of skim milk, it's a decent serving.

If you're on Weight Watchers, this will fit right in: a serving with skim milk is only 4 points -not bad for a nice filling breakfast. Add some fresh fruit, and you're set to go.

Amazon's price is quite good, too. This stuff is sky high in the supermarket if you can find it. Yes, you have to buy 5 packages, but a little goes a long way -I have it 2-3 times a week, and I'm not getting tired of it at all.

All in all, a good value: healthy, filling, and great taste.

This is, as all of their cereals I've ordered so far are fresh, high quality, and wonderful tasting cereals. The only downside is since the ingredients are so dense, the packages are small, but a serving size is only 2/3 cup-honestly I eat more than that as one serving though. The best value for this brand is the 21 oz. Swiss Crunch which is heavenly w/ assorted grains, coconut, hazelnuts, and raisins. I caution you IF you eat this item dry as a snack, premeasure it or you will find you have consumed the entire 11 oz. bag without realizing it-yes, it's that good!

We are a Swiss household and we are used to Swiss muesli and this one is the one that I like most because of the crunch. Quite satisfying, not like the cardboard type you can buy here, and not super loaded with sugar like some store offerings.

Now it is available only through nutricity. Their availability status is wrong. I ordered on the 30th of Aug. Today is Sep 12th. Yesterday they said, they are back ordered. The first time I ordered it was filled by Amazon. As expected there were no problems with that order.

Nature's Path Organic Millet Rice Oatbran, Wheat Free Cereal, 32-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)

I recently tried to find my food allergies by going on an "elimination diet" which initially means I could not eat any foods with any wheat, dairy, corn, refined sugar, etc. This millet rice cereal got me through this initial period because it actually tasted good. I would eat it with my rice milk and whatever fruit I was allowed to eat at the time. I also liked it because it is crisp and does not get soggy too fast like some other cereals I tried. The larger size of this bag was handy and less expensive than buying the smaller boxes.

Something a morning, afternoon, or any time of the day can do with! FILLING, SATISFYING, FANTASTIC.

You won't be disappointed with these tasty, crunchy flakes. They are not extremely sweet like much of the typical fare you find in the grocery store, but throw in a few raisins, and you have yourself a tasty, gluten-free "raisin bran!"

The flakes are nice and crunchy, but they will get soft if you leave them sitting in the milk for very long.

I really appreciate companies like Nature's Path that still make some healthy GMO-free cereals without unecessary sugar, additives, and supplements.

This cereal has been my breakfast staple for the last 10 years. Five out of the seven days in the week, I've been eating this cereal in the mornings. But, a few months ago, something changed. The cereal no longer holds up in milk. Within seconds, the flakes are soggy and truly unappealing. What happened, Nature's Path? Changing the formula was a huge mistake. You have lost my business after 10 loyal years. I'm now in search of a good whole grain flake that is low in sugar that holds up in milk.

May 20: I wrote to Nature's Path to complain. They explained that they had a new plant manufacturing the cereal and that the new plant had failed to meet their expectations. NP has adjusted their specs and the cereal is now back to its former glory-no longer soggy and tasting of cardboard. They shipped me a box of 6 bags to make up for the frustration, which was kind-and the cereal seems to be back to how it was before.

I've been eating this cereal for several years now. So much so, that I now order it in bulk from Amazon. I love the crunch, the fact that it's not made of white flour, and that it goes well with soy milk. "Millet Rice" is kind of a misnomer since it has many other ingredients. Unlike other cereals, I'm not hungry 2 hours after I eat this.

The Republic of Tea, British Breakfast Tea, 50-Count

Well worth the money for a good cup of English Breakfast Tea. Can also look them up and order direct (I needed to fluff up and order) and get a bag of 150 bags refill. Then you get a catalog once a month with a sample bag of tea. Good for testing other teas without having to buy extra. Republic of Tea makes good tea and British Breakfast (English Breakfast) is my favorite.

A good cuppa can truly transport a gal to another time and space. Take me away People's Republic, you have captured my taste buds and heart with this tea. It is smooth, does not leave a dry taste in the mouth, and steeps to a bee-uuu-ti-ful perfect color which brings to mind such mystical things as a lawn chair on the perfect spring day and clean counter tops.

It makes me happy. 100% Delish.

Other flavors I love:

Red Roobios (drop your drawers, its that good)

People's Green (I will march in their army anytime)

Blackberry (can you say "August" to a seattle girl and get away with just a mention of the month--no sirree, must supply blackberry's to back it all up)

Final Word: Yum.

The Republic of Tea is a wonderful company that makes great tea. I have a lot of English blood and drink tea instead of coffee. I make a strong tea each morning and there is a crisis in my house if I don't have British Breakfast tea by the Republic of Tea! It is not as acidic as many teas, which I appreciate.

I am a life-long tea drinker and for most of my life, I settled on good ole Liptons.

However, I discovered The Republic of Tea brand at a local restaurant. It was so delicious, I had to know what brand it was. I looked in several grocery stores to no avail. I tried other brands of tea (Twinings, etc) and none came close the delicious flavor of The Republic of Tea.

As usual, Amazon to the rescue.

The brand is decidedly more expensive, but an awesome cup of tea is one of my daily "zen" moments...and its worth every penny. I am a plain black tea lover--never really got into the flavored teas, so The Republic of Tea, British Breakfast is now a staple in my pantry.

MMMM, I think its time to brew another delicious cuppa :)

This tea is quite delicious! I went through the entire container, it certainly did not sit around not getting used. The flavor is perfect and I certainly enjoyed using every tea bag.

Eden Organic Red Quinoa, Whole Grain, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 4)

Saw this item on Martha Stewart and decided to try it. It's unusual but I love the texture. Like cavier, without the salty taste. It does get stuck in my teeth though. I've only eaten it for breakfast so far. A little of the raw grains makes a LOT. And you need a strainer or cheese cloth to rinse it -the grains are so small they go right through a colander.

For digestive reasons, I decided to try a gluten free diet: not so easy and Eden offers a lot of gluten free products. This grain was very easy to cook, and to make it more flavorful I added chopped shiitake mushrooms (great for the immune system) and pucini stock cube with low sodium chicken stock. Even my husband liked it (not easy getting everyone in the family to try new and healthy products).

The grain may not open up after cooking for 20 minutes, but I found it very soft. So dont over cook to get the 'open' grain look like that on the package.

The price that is offered on Amanzon is fantastic compared with our local health food store. Once I finish the pack, I will order from here.

Buy Eden Organic Red Quinoa, Whole Grain, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 4) Now

I try to eat healthy, but it is hard to eat both healthy and cheaply at the same time. I've been looking into ordering Quinoa for years, hopefully the world is finally learning that this is the new super-food, and thankfully I can now finally order it at reasonable prices fairly easily too, so I gave this bag a try. The red because it tastes better according to the critics, and well quite frankly, everything I have read about it is true. It tastes like nuts, is a little crunchy, and the seeds pop when you cook it turning into little snail looking bead sprouts. It is a lot smaller than I expected, but slightly more than doubles in size when you cook it. It was a lot easier to cook than rice which clumps together too easily. Because of the nutty taste I can even eat Quinoa as is, nothing added, something I would never do with rice, and Quinoa because of the high nutrient content makes a completely healthy meal all by itself! Heads up though, WASH IT SEVERAL TIMES IF IT SAYS WASH ON THE BAG. It is not like rice that you wash just to get rid of the dusty powder. If you don't wash Quinoa well before you eat it, then it will taste very acidic like putting a penny in your mouth at first. I really like this stuff and will eat it all until it's gone.

Delicious with oatmeal in my 700 calorie breakfasts. What a way to start the day!! I'll definitely be back for this one!! 5+++

Want Eden Organic Red Quinoa, Whole Grain, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 4) Discount?

We have become enamored with quinoa, with red quinoa being our favorite! Of course it seems to be very pricey and hard to find too. On a whim I checked out Amazon and found several options. Eden had the best price and reviews and we are thrilled with their product. Signed up for the subscription which makes it a little cheaper too. Red quinoa is delicious as a side dish or as a cold salad with all your leftovers mixed in...nice and nutty and crunchy. A perfect healthy food and it cooks beautifully in a rice cooker too!

Love Grown Foods Oat Clusters and Love, Cocoa Goodness, 12-Ounce (Pack of 3)

I previously found this at Marshall's and then went on the search online. Thanks Amazon for stocking this item. This is by far one of my favorite granolas the nutritional values are just what a Watching Your Weight Sista needs.

The taste is incredible and very good for the health conscious.

I agree with all of the other reviewers...this stuff is really good for what it is a cocoa granola. It has a great cocoa taste (I wouldn't describe the taste as chocolate, really, although it has 63% chocolate chips in it as well), and is sweet enough without being too sweet. And, as far as granola is concerned, it is really healthy...only 35mg sodium, 1g saturated fat, 8g sugar. The only minor issue I have is that I like my granola "clustered" a little more...you know, little granola bunches. It has "Clusters" in the title, but I am not sure it actually comes that way. However, my shipment seemed to get crushed enroute, so...
