Caveman Nuts Almond Cashew Bar, 1.4-Ounce (Pack of 15)

Caveman Nuts Almond Cashew Bar, 1.4-OunceReally loved this bar. This is a harder style bar primarily made of a combination of nuts and seeds bound together by brown rice syrup and cane syrup. Good source of fiber and protein and relatively low on sugars. I will buy this again.

I'm not on the paleo diet. I got these because they're gluten-free and corn-free, and that is hard to find. They seem a little hard at first bite, but they are easy to chew and surprisingly tasty. Not too sticky, not too sweet. I like them a lot.

I am a big fan of caveman bars, any of their flavors. However, I think these had been sitting on a shelf for awhile, not very fresh.

Taste is top notch!

Nutritionally speaking I love these bars. My only complaint there is they've added salt, and who needs added salt? But it's a very small amount.. 90mg. I've added these to my rotation which primarily includes Larabar's uberbar and the KIND bars. So these have less sodium than the uberbars and more than the KIND bars.

The texture isn't my favorite but it might work well for you. The nuts are chopped well and mashed together with syrup. They form a solidly built bar. Possibly mine were stale but they were packed so well together it was hard to chew. In that regard I like both the KIND bar and uber bar better. The uber bar has nearly whole nuts and the syrup doesn't hold them together so well. The KIND bar is much drier so they snap apart.

In terms of cost they place last among the three. Regular price in my neck of the woods is $1.79 but I caught them on sale for 99 cents. The KIND bars retail for $1.39 by me and the uber bars are also less.

These are great for Paleo Framework diet......Pricey, but good for that special treat or when traveling. Better than ANY BAR OF ANY BRAND OR KIND ON THE MARKET!!!!!!

Dorset Cereals Muesli, Fruit Nut and Fiber, 11.46-Ounce (Pack of 5)

Dorset Cereals Muesli, Fruit Nut and Fiber, 11.46-OunceVERY GOOD CEREAL. NO SUGAR ADDED!!!! You get good taste along with healthy coconut, rasins, and dates. No sugar added is VERY important to someone allergic to sucrose.

Dorset Muesli:

great tasting oat flakes -never disappoints...Even the raisins are never dried out. I like it a lot!

Buy Dorset Cereals Muesli, Fruit Nut and Fiber, 11.46-Ounce (Pack of 5) Now

I prefer a muesli type cereal, and I especially like a cereal that has no added sugar. This particular blend has plenty of added fruit to be sweet and large pieces of coconut for flavor. I thought the price per box was fair for the price given the amount of dates, raisins, and coconut. Will buy again when it becomes available.

Very tricky. I used to buy Dorset all the time, then they went out of stock. When they came back on Amazon I re-ordered a pack of 5 and I was very surprised:

1. This is half the size the previous ones used to be and for the same price.

2. It's toasted wheat and flakes. It's like Granola not the Muesli such as Steinbracher and Mumu's where you get rolled oat and barley.

I though Dorset was good, but not anymore. Last time! If only Amazon sold MuMu, the best cereal in the States at least made in the USA, up state NY. Why import cereals when we have the best one here... We are paying a premium to ship a bad product trans the Atlantic ocean and contributing to air pollution and CO2 emission.

Tadin Chamomile Tea 24 Bags - Te De Manzanilla

Tadin Chamomile Tea 24 Bags - Te De ManzanillaI'm prone to anxiety and can have trouble sleeping so having chamomile tea around makes for something I'm always looking forward to making. I love the Tadin brand because I've known the brand for a while, it's a brand my grandmother bought. I also like the fact that it's a straightforward brand and there's none of the pretension you'd get from other brands. These are tea bags, and you get the same type/quality of tea with this brand for a fraction of the price of other brands. It's a very fragrant tea with a mild flavor so I usually have mine with a little drop of honey.

6 Bag Variety Pack of Impact Foods Granola

6 Bag Variety Pack of Impact Foods GranolaI rarely review food. Seriously. Most of it isn't worth it, good or bad. But this?? This?? I was tired of the "bland, flavorless" healthy cereals. Here is a company who gets it. They actually have granola cereals with FLAVOR, not just texture.

It has a little more sugar in it than I would like (I have diabetes), but if you use it sparingly OR mix it with other things, you can really make it work. I have added it to hot oatmeal, used it for a yogurt topping (vanilla almond ROCKS this), mixed it with Rip's Big Bowl to make it taste better (half and half it's beautiful). I am contemplating how in the world to turn it into a pie crust. I really think there's a future there...

Love this product. Impact?? Please keep making delicious stuff like this!!

P.S. I actually discovered this when I was reaching for a box of Rip's at WF and a gentleman suggested I try this instead. I am usually dubious of stranger-recommended items, but I grabbed one to be polite and promptly went back the next day for another flavor.

Impact Granola is absolutely delicious! My favorite is the vanilla almond, but they're all great. So great, in fact, that we gave it out as a hotel snack for out-of-town guests at our wedding, and it got rave reviews. Two thumbs up for a tasty product with a truly great mission to feed hungry children.

Simply amazing granola. Vanilla Almond is my favorite, but they are all superb. Try it, you will be hooked forever.

Im not the granola type so I bought this for my husband since he likes oatmeal, muesli and that kind of stuff. I tried the IF granola one day on some yogurt and needless to say I am totally hooked--my two little daughters too. Great flavor, and I love that they make a donation to help feed needy children. A bit pricey its totally justified once you taste it.

Rhubarb Jam

Rhubarb JamI love rhubarb but hate paying Southern grocery story prices for it (when fresh rhubarb costs more per pound than asparagus, there's something seriously wrong with my world), so I was eager to purchase rhubarb jams and pie fillings.

This jam was good and it didn't take me a week to use it up, but it wasn't as tart as I prefer (tasted pretty much like apple butter, to me, and I feel that you really should be able to tell the difference between apple and rhubarb preserves by taste, not just by texture).

However, if you want some rhubarb in your diet and don't necessarily crave tartness, this might be a good choice.

It lacked a noticeable taste of rhubarb which is what I wanted. It must not have been made from the right kind of rhubarb.

Buy Rhubarb Jam Now

I thought the shipping costs were high, but I must confess that I really like the jam and will be ordering more. They do package everything very carefully and the jam is outstanding. Tart enough for me. I take it to the office with a loaf of nice rye... far less expensive or caloric than the rolls and buns offered at work.

WOW, some good bread, toasted, with butter, then covered with Rhubarb jam? That was out of this world...needless to say, we wished I had purchased a larger jar. The color wasn't so red it was 'fake looking' and yet enough color so it was appetizing. Perfectly sweetened also.

Shipping was fast. Product was better than expected. First time having this type of jam.

Kellogg's Raisin Bran Cereal, 1.25-Ounce Bowls (Pack of 96)

Kellogg's Raisin Bran Cereal, 1.25-Ounce BowlsThis is one of the most marvelous items that I've purchased to date from the "Grocery" section of Amazon. These containers, which I think of as "motel morning" portions, are extremely convenient and quite delicious, presuming one is a Raisin Bran fan. Likewise, no matter how long the food stays in storage, my cabinets, or in the crate sitting in this cluttered abode's back room, I note that the little, light plastic, sealed containers never seem to let the bran or raisins go stale or lose their taste. I'm now working on my third crate of these little wonders. I suspect that most readers would skeptically snicker at this reviewer's infatuation with such a mundane product, but one should always take matters involving quenching of the munchies seriously, especially at an advancing age when the ol' love-beaten, soul-searching heart needn't be weighed down with the added burdens of fat, cholesterol, salt, sugars and other modern processed sludge.

This cereal is great for everyone and the portion is perfect for those who do not know when to say that's enough. It's like a weight watchers meal already portioned for you.

I now prefer this product to its boxed form. It is portion-controlled, and can be consumed in the bowl provided (i.e., the number of servings it will provide is known in advance, and one can avoid clean-up if desired). I find re-using the bowls useful (freezing left-overs, disposing of messy kitchen wastes unsuitable for discarding in plumbing, etc).

Mostly I have Raisin Bran for breakfast ,however I

I purchased this as a way to save money on Raisin Bran, a cereal one of my sons enjoys. Granted, he'll eat two packages for breakfast. But depending on what I have to spend in the store, I'm sometimes saving money.

If you like the cereal and have the room, this may be an option for you. Likewise, they offer a convenience in the form of portability. But you should do the math yourself to see if the economics make sense.

Heartland Malted Vanilla Belgian Waffle - All In One, Complete Mix - 80 Ounce Bag (Pack of 1) 5 lbs.

Heartland Malted Vanilla Belgian Waffle - All In One, Complete Mix - 80 Ounce Bag 5 lbs.I ordered the Heartland Blueberry Waffle Mix, the Heartland Malted Vanilla and the Carbon's Malted Original. This is by far better than the Carbon's in my opinion. The batter tastes like cake batter. I was expecting the waffle to be sweet like cake, but it was just a really good waffle. My 15 year old and I liked the Blueberry mix the best. My 11 year old and 17 year old liked the Vanilla better. I know others have mentioned liking the Vanilla better so you are just going to have to try them both.

The mix could not have been simpler. 3 parts mix to 2 parts cold water. Mix. Let sit for 15 minutes. One thing that I've seen mentioned here and it bears repeating. After it sits for 15 minutes, you are going to have to add a bit of water to the mix as it sets up too stiff. Just a tablespoon or so should get it to waffle consistency. Another thing mentioned is that your go to ladle is probably going to put too much on the waffle iron. My first waffle spilled out of the iron. (That is when I tasted the batter.) The next waffle, I was careful to put a few tablespoons less on the iron and I got a perfect waffle.

3 cups of mix yielded two Belgian waffles.

I am using the Waring Waffle Maker Pro. Setting 3 1/2. Cook until only the faintest wisp of steam is coming from the iron. You don't want to leave too much moisture in the waffle in case you want to freeze them. Moisture creates water crystals that damage the waffle.

This is a complete waffle mix. You really just have to add water. We add regular water at first, and at the very end Seltzer water, this way you get a very fluffy excellent waffle as a result. We highly enjoy this waffle mix and would recommend to any waffle lovers out there.

This stuff really is very good. The picture says it makes 15 waffles but the bag you get makes 37. That's less than $0.50 each for a jumbo waffle! Unlike other mixes, you only have to mix with water and let it fluff for 15 minutes. No need to add egg and oil. It makes it much more convenient to wip up some on a whim. The first batch scared me a little bit because it mixes up really runny but it cooked up great. I recommend it highly.

Easy mix with just water and 15-minutes later one terrific waffle ready for the waffle iron. Ordered both this Waffle mix and the Waring Pro WMK600 Double Belgian-Waffle Maker product from Amazon.com. I was very excited to try out this waffle mix and my new waffle maker right away, so we had breakfast for dinner tonight. We thoroughly enjoyed these waffles, Wow, really easy and delicious. Light crispy outside, fluffly on the inside. I see all kinds of yummy possibilities.

The regular complete waffle/pancake mixes from the grocery store does not compare with this tasty mix. Hearland Malted Vanilla Pancake & Belgian Waffle Complete Mix is in a class by itself. Just order the mix, you will have no regrets! So very good!

(I plan on writing a review on the waffle maker after a few more tries, but based on tonight's waffles I am very pleased with this purchase too).

We were on vacation and the hotel we were staying at offered free breakfast. One of the items were make your own waffles. Well we could not get enough of them they were so good! We kept going back and making more! They were so crispy on the outside and light & tasty on the inside! When we were leaving I made it a point to stop and ask the kitchen staff the name of the waffle mix. Thank goodness they were kind enough to give me the name of Heartland Malted vanilla pancake & belgian waffle mix. When we got home I ordered this product from Amazon.com the delivery was fast! and the Heatland waffles at home were Awesome!

Newman's Own Alfredo Pasta Sauce ( 12x15 OZ)

Newman's Own Alfredo Pasta SauceWow. I have never had such a bad experience with trying to purchase an item from Amazon as I went through with trying to purchase this product.

Maybe it was just the seller I went with, Thereaputic Health Massage, but I am definately turned off on this item (and that particular seller).

Do not recommend!

It's alright. Kind of garlicky smelling, thinnish, and doesn't have a full flavor. Somebody else might love it. Not my favorite.
