Bewley's Special Blend Fairtrade Tea Bags 80's

This is my favorite tea and I highly recommend it to any socially conscious black tea drinkers. I first fell in love with Bewley's Tea (the green box version) while traveling in Ireland. I brought some home with me and then started special ordering from an online tea importer. Later, when I saw that Bewley's had a fair trade blend, I was thrilled! I love this tea just as well as the green box version and am so happy to see that Amazon has it too.

If you are a tea drinker you owe it to yourself to give this tea a go. If you do, you will never go back to the supermarket tea on offer here in the US. This is what tea should taste.

Bumble Bee Tuna Salad Kits - 9/3.5oz

nice product, nice product worth every penny and i most definitely needed it for my diet. a purchase that you couldnt get a better price for. excellent product and a recommended buy for those fish eaters

I initially purchased a few varieties of the Bumble Bee Salad snack kits to take out deer hunting with me. I was looking for something easy to carry, didn't take up much room, was tasty, and would last for awhile without spoilage.

The kit comes with a 3 ounce can of tuna salad, 6 crackers, and a small plastic paddle to spoon the salad on the crackers. The tuna is in a metal can with a foil lid and the crackers are in a small cellophane (foil looking) pouch. The little plastic piece is just floating around in there.

After being carried and tossed around for a few weeks, I tore open a pack. The crackers did not hold up too well to the abuse and were mostly a stack of pieces and crumbs. The cardboard was splitting open allowing dirt to get inside, but at least the little plastic thing was still in there.

The taste of the salad was actually quite good. I did not think it had an overwhelming fishy smell which could be beneficial if you are eating it in close quarters to others who might not like fish. There is more than enough salad for the crackers which is a nice surprise as most snacks seem to make you ration the spread.

If you are on a diet, this meager snack is definitely not worth the 300 calories. If you are looking for something portable to take on the road, hiking, fishing, hunting, or a snack to send to a soldier in the field, this is a handy, self contained snack. If the packaging was a bit more durable to protect the crackers, I would say this would be pretty close to the perfect field snack.

Love these convenient lunch boxes. I am a big fan very flavorful and can store a number of them at the office.

I love these little packages. The tuna salad is so good, and the crackers are great. I bought these for my mom who doesn't get much time to eat at her desk, so she just fell in love with these. They have a long shelf life and need no refrigeration. She keeps them in her desk drawer, and she loves having them there for an anytime snack or lunch.

I tried one yesterday, and now I get it. They are really great, the crackers are fresh and tuna is really tasty. Now I'm going to order more for me. I also bought her the version with the peaches and a cookie too. It's the same great tuna salad and crackers, but with a little side of peaches and a cookie. Great deal.

Nice for keeping in my desk drawer for those working lunches. My daughter also loves taking them to school for lunch.

Leonard Mountain Belgian Waffle Mix, 19-Ounce Box (Pack of 4)

The batter seems to require more moisture than the instructions call for and they don't give a baking time, but 4 minutes seems to work about right. The waffles taste more like regular waffles than Belgian Waffles. I was hoping they would have a more "malty" flavor.

Post Pebbles Fruity Pebbles Treats, 8-Count (Pack of 8)

Delicious! What else can I say, if you like Fruity Pebbles, you will love these treats. Not sure how much they are in the store, but this is cheaper than buying the one pack (8bars) on Amazon.

Spectrum Naturals Walnut, Refined , 16-Ounce (Pack of 12)

Description: WALNUT OIL,REFINED Quantity: 12 Size: 16 OZ Brand: SPCTRM
Attributes: Kosher, (Please check the manufacturer's details for contents as we are unable to guarantee ingredient details and they may change without notice).

I don't use this for cooking I use it for making my own oil paints. I'm an artist who goes to extraordinary lengths to purify my oils. So I start out with the Spectrum walnut oil, and refine it further, until all the alpha-linolenic acids are gone. The alpha-linolenic acid, aka 'mucus', is what makes an oil painting turn dark. I learned this from reading Reuben, et al, accounts of common studio practices in the 1500 -1600's. Makes great hand-made oil paint. Probably good for cooking, too I just never tried it for that. Smells good.

Buy Spectrum Naturals Walnut, Refined , 16-Ounce (Pack of 12) Now

Spectrum Naturals Walnut Oil, refined, is a very mild oil. I can't detect any walnut smell or taste any walnut flavor at all. Maybe that's what you want in some cases, though I was hoping for a more nutty flavor like raw walnuts.

It does have the advantage of having higher Omega 3 content than most oils. Also most oils that are high in Omega 3 (like fish oil and flax oil) have a strong taste which you probably don't want on your salad.

Unlike some of Spectrum's oils, it is not organic.

Nature's Path Organic Flax Plus Raisin Bran Cereal, 14-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

If you've never had flax seed oil before, you may notice a slightly "off" flavor to Nature's Path's version of raisin bran. I think even flax newbies will habituate to this taste, especially because of the familiar taste of the multi-grain flakes and the raisins (see other reviews). As one who sometimes puts a tablespoon of flax seed oil on top of oatmeal, the flax seed flavor was a welcome change from the usual cold cereal offerings.

THis cereal is pretty darn good for you> Obviously, you're gonna want to consult a doctor or nutritionist, and I am neither. From a lay person's pont of view, however, the 11 grams of fiber("11 WHOPPING grams," I should say--that's way more than oatmeal, and more than bran flakes or any other hot or cold cereal I've seen) 600 grams of Omegas and no saturated fat all sound very good for you. If offers 20% of the Daily Value of iron (see nutritional information below), without any added iron! Very rare. Perhaps it has to do with all those organic grains (and raisins): Organic whole wheat flour, organic wheat bran, organic oat bran, organic barley malt extract. (See below for a complete list of ingredients.)

Nature's Path is making some of the most interesting cereals around, with healthy organic ingredients not often found in other products (e.g., pomegranites, pumpkin seeds). You can get a good idea of the breadth and depth of their products by visitng their website at naturespath.com

Nutritional Information without milk (per serving, or 3/4 cup, about 55 grams; 7 servings per container). 180 calories, 10 from from; 2.5 grams(g) of total fat, no saturated or trans fat, 600 mg of Omega 3 and also of Omega 6, no cholesterol, 280 mg sodium (12% of the daily value for a person on a 2,000 calorie diet), Total Carbohydrate, 41g (14%0, Dietary Fiber, 11g (28%), Sugar, 16 g, 4% Daily Value of of Calcium, 20% of Iron.

Ingredients. Organic whole wheat flour, organic wheat bran, organic raisins, organic evaporated cane juice, organic flax seeds, organic oat bran, organic barley malt extract, rice extract, sea salt, tocopherols (natural vitamin E) added to enhance freshness. May contain traces of peanuts, tree nuts, or soy.

Bought this from Amazon Warehouse Deals, 4 boxes for $9 and change. Nowhere in the description did it say that the boxes I would receive would expire within 2 months of purchase (purchased Sept 2012, box expiration (or is it sell by?) says Nov 2012). Either way this is utterly disappointing and misleading. The organic Kashi I purchased at the grocery store in Sept 2012 does not expire until May 2013. Normally Amazon does a great job but this felt really underhanded.

This is very good cereal. It is healthier than most raisin cereals. I like it being organic too. The flax is also a plus. In the end, it is just slightly less desirable than the NP Pumpkin raisin cereal. But you will like this cereal.

Oh, man do we love this cereal! My family tried the Natures Path Organic Flax Plus and loved it so much that I bought a case from Amazon and while I was at it, decided to try it with raisins. Oh my goodness! Crazy Good! I'm going to have to up the deliveries of this. Everyone loves it, and we use the Flax Plus on occation on it's own, but usually in parfaits now. TRY THIS CEREAL!!

Great cereal @ a great price. Taste good even though it is good for you. Not like other cereals that claim to have raisins and really only have a small handful in the entire box.

La Vieja Fabrica Jams

Made with SEVILLE oranges, which are slightly bitter, this is a most EXCELLENT marmalade for about $4.33 a jar! This is a six pack of 13.5 ounce jars, but if u like marmalade that's not too much to have on hand, and, unopened, it keeps forever since it's acidic and canned. A worthy investment to beef up your pantry! Recommended!! Ingredients: Sugar, Seville Oranges, Citric acid. Per Tlbs: 50 calories, 13 carbs, zero fat, zero protein, zero sodium. Imported from Seville, Spain.

I love marmalade. I buy all the imported ones I can find as they are more bitter and not as cloyingly sweet as those in the USA. Thus far, my favorites have come from Ireland and the good old stand by is, of course, Keillers. But now that I've tried this, I'm sure it is far superior to any I've ever tasted. A perfect blend of bitter and sweet with a great texture.

Without doubt this is the best tasting jam I have ever tasted that is the organe mamalade flavor. It has a great balance of taste and sweetness that I just haven't found in other jams. Imported from Spain, the product must have a great source of oranges which truly delivers on the taste. I haven't tried the other flavors yet but after tasting this jam they will also get purchased as well.

I use this jam as a sweet relish on hot dogs and hamburgers, also occasionally with steak or pork chops or roasts. If a person didn't like the sweetness, it would be simple to mix some pickle relish with it (I like the sweetness, so haven't bothered) you could also add minced onion and/or peppers for a spicier relish.

I usually make my own jams, but this is a much better recipe than mine. Low sugar is a very nice plus. Naturally sweet and lovely texture. I will buy this again!
