Kashi Heart to Heart Oat Flakes and Blueberry Clusters Cereal, 13.4-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
The title pretty much sums it up. :) Not too sweet, and just absolutely delicious. Every time I have a different cereal, I wish I was eating this instead. I don't even know why I bother with the other kinds now that I've found this stuff...and it's good for you, too!"Can life get any better? I submit that it cannot!" ;)
Buy Kashi Heart to Heart Oat Flakes and Blueberry Clusters Cereal, 13.4-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Now
This is the best blueberry cereal I've tried. Not sickeningly sweet, excellent flavor and texture, stays crunchy even mixed with yogurt. This is the best new cereal on the market. Even my picky 13 and 10 year old children like it.I started buying Kashi Blueberry Cluster cereal about 3 years ago, at that time there were blueberries..however, the last few boxes I've purchased are only tiny cluster, and NOT blueberries. The reason I started buying the cereal in the first place was because of less sugar and oat flakes. I won't purchase another box of Kashi cereal, instead I am going for Natures Path cereal which HAS REAL BLUEBERRIES.
Corazonas Oatmeal Squares, Cranberry Flax, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12)
The cranberries' tartness is a nice counterpoint to the bar's sweetness. These are much improved by warming them up: remove from wrapper, microwave for 10-15 seconds. Made with lots of good stuff and having lots of fiber and protein; they also contain plant sterols, which supposedly help lower cholesterol.

this is great for taking to work or to eat in the car, but dont try to use it as a meal replacement at home unless you got really great will power! i am the last guy to give in to cravings, but the last time i tried it as a meal replacement i ended up eating 10 of them, and that 180 cal meal replacement turned into a 1800 cal meal... so from now on i only take one or two with me to workRead Best Reviews of Corazonas Oatmeal Squares, Cranberry Flax, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12) Here
I love Corazonas Oatmeal Squares and have been buying them for several months. My favorites are the Cranberry, the Chocolate Chip, and the Banana Walnut. Love to have one of them with coffee every morning with a smear of Natural peanut butter. Yum!Want Corazonas Oatmeal Squares, Cranberry Flax, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12) Discount?
I like the Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip flavors of these bars, but the Cranberry Flax one is a little too tart for my taste. My husband hates them and won't come near them. I love Corazona bars in general, but this flavor is just not that great.
Achva Organic Halva Kosher Snacks Gift Box 2 Packs
"Ingredients: Organic Sesame seeds (50%), Organic Sugar, Organic Glucose, Organic Vegetable Oil (palm), Natural foaming ageny-Saponariae root, Citric Acid." Each box has 11 individual packets of halvah each weighing 25 grams. As far as I know, an ounce is 28 grams. You can do the math; if not, the total weight for the two boxes is one pound three and a half ounces. I think it's "pricey" for the product. If I had this information before my purchase, I would have opted for something else. I have to look up "organic glucose" and "organic palm oil". It does taste as good as any other halvah that I have eaten.

Since spending some time in Athens and enjoying a halva made with honey I have been searching for a halva that compares. The Achva organic halva is wonderful so much so that I had to share it with friends.Read Best Reviews of Achva Organic Halva Kosher Snacks Gift Box 2 Packs Here
i have never tried this halvah before, but as it was organic, I thought i would give it a try. Aside from being a little drier than Joyvah, it is very good. I still prefer Joyvah.Want Achva Organic Halva Kosher Snacks Gift Box 2 Packs Discount?
This specific Halva is one of the worst that we ever tasted. I don't think that it has something to do with storage, shipping and handling. It's because of the processing of the different ingredients when the Halva was created.Save 10% Off
EnviroKidz Organic Gorilla Munch Cereal, 10-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
This cereal was most satisfactory. I purchased some with the intent of keeping it on a table somewhere in my house to keep my jimmies stable. It far exceeded my expectations, and even went so far as to keep all of my family's jimmies in place.I would recommend this.
And you know what they say, a box on the table keeps your jimmies stable.
Recommended for anyone.

I went to go pick this product up in the store the other day only to see a label change had taken place. My once intact jimmies are now rustled to the point of no return. I have no words to describe this rustling, but want to reach out to EnviroKidz and please ask them to return to the old label. The old label was the only thing that kept my jimmies from rustling and now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place...please EnviroKidz do the right thing for everyone that now has permanently rustled jimmies.Read Best Reviews of EnviroKidz Organic Gorilla Munch Cereal, 10-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Here

When I was a young johny, I was diagnosed with Irritable Jimmy Syndrome (IJS). This terrible disease causes 5 times as much Jimmy rustling as the next biggest rustler, AIDS. As you can imagine, my family was distraught and my future was dark. I went through a rough period over the following years, as various medication only exacerbated my rustled jimmies.While the rest of humanity may have found a kitten cute, I could only notice its claws digging into my skin or the torn upholstery from the animal. While children might have laughed at peek-a-boo tricks, I could only envy how lucky they were not to have rustled jimmies. The only friends I had were victims of cancer who thought they had a bad life, but in reality there jimmies could never know the rustling I experienced on a day-to-day basis. Nobody understood, not even my doctors.One day, by some stroke of good fortune, I found a Jimmy Guru by the name of Go Rilluh, in the local phonebook. Willing to try anything (and I mean anything) to cure my rustled jimmies, I called him as soon as I was home from school that day. He answered with a rather husky voice, seemingly grunting his replies to me, and yet as soon as I heard his voice over the phone I could not help but feel like my luck was about to turn around. I told him that at this point (I was 16 at the time), my jimmies had become so rustled that doctors gave me 3 months at most before they became dangerously unstable. They said they had never seen jimmies rustled so badly, not even when Patriots fans walked in the day after losing the Superbowl to the New York Giants. Mr. Rilluh soothingly responded that his only secret to unrustled jimmies was Gorilla munch, manufactured within the realm of Heaven itself in order to provide unrustling the likes of which this Earth could not possibly produce. I immediately went down to the grocery store to buy a box, and as soon as I looked at the Gorilla on the front of the box a wave of calm passed over me, for the first time since my childhood. I imagine that it was what my savior Mr. Rilluh would have looked like, but I was never able to find him after that fateful phone call. I followed a simple mantra from then on out, "A box on the table keeps the jimmies stable." Life began to improve; I began to enjoy things for the first time, I could do schoolwork without daydreaming of fighting my teachers, and I even found first love. Suddenly, my life took a turn for the worst.
Recently I went in to the grocery store to buy my anti-drug Gorilla Munch. I was shocked and appalled to learn that the friendly Gorilla, full of understanding and wisdom, had been replaced by some rookie. Some amateur. This new kid on the block looks like a joke. A big fat phony. He knows nothing of the world, barely looking old enough to feed himself. He doesn't understand how hard life really is. He doesn't understand what its like to stay up day and night, full of tears and not a dream in sight. He probably doesn't even understand what TRULY made Gorilla munch special, let alone how to unrustle my jimmies. My life has gone to shambles now that my friendly gorilla of old has left the cover of my box. My wife left me, I lost my job and my home. I don't even own a table for me to keep a box of gorilla munch on top of, even though it would no help keep my jimmies stable. My Irritable Jimmy Syndrome is worse than ever, and I will probably die in the hospital I type this message from within a month. All I can ask, is this:
Please EnviroKidz, please bring back our old friend the gorilla. You are quite literally watching me die by not putting him on the cover of this box.
San Francisco Bay Coffee One Cup for Keurig K-Cup Brewers, Fog Chaser
As many other reviews have mentioned, these are not the normal K-Cups, but they work much the same. I generally drink the stronger K-cups (Emeril's, Jet Fuel, Kona, etc), and I find that these Fog Chaser pods compare very favorably. There is no bitter aftertaste, just smooth flavor. I have not had any sediment at the bottom of my cup (I've had sediment from other K-Cups). I think people are a bit thrown by the smell of the coffee bag when they get it, as it is a much stronger smell than you'll get from a box of K-Cups. It does smell like when you open a fresh bag/can of ground coffee, which is sort of refreshing after using K-Cups for 3 years. We've just finished the first bag of 12 (6 days), which we kept in a ziplock bag, and the last cup tasted as good as the first. I already placed a subscribe and save order for the French Roast to try out. I will be keeping my subscription for the Fog Chaser, as it is quite good.
Because I was familiar with Fog Chaser, I never even looked at the reviews before I made my purchase. Therefore, I was rather surprised when I opened the box and saw the different type of pod. With a filter bottom the pod seems much more environmentally friendly. There was no residue at the bottom of my mug so the filter did a good job. I agree with other reviewers of the need to keep these pods in a vacuum sealed container (or zip lock bag) but I think the use of less platics is a good thing.
I have a B60 and these fit perfectly in the machine. I used the large cup setting and the strength of the coffee was perfect for my taste (I prefer stronger coffee). Before purchasing Fog Chaser I was buying Jet Fuel.
Buy San Francisco Bay Coffee One Cup for Keurig K-Cup Brewers, Fog Chaser Now
These Keurig compatible onecups are a cross breed design resembling a Kcup top with a pod body.They come 12 servings sealed in a vacuum bag with freshness seal. This is then placed in a attractive retail type box
that would look right at home on the shelf next to kcups at your favorite retail store.
The front of the Box has a drawing of a kcup machine and a blow up of the 1 cup inserted in it.
It also lists a few of the compatible keurig type brewers it will work in.
The top and back of the box has some photos of environmental projects that the Rogers Family has been involved in.
one side has a photo of the rodgers family and their mission statement. The other side has a description of the coffee contained in the box.
I can see how these should sell well in the retail setting and also appeal to environment conscious individual and those who are just curious about a new alternative to the standard kcup.
I have a Box of Fog Chaser described on the box as a blend with the body of our regular roast and the smokiness of our French roast. A heavy full bodied with hints of cedar,vanilla and toasted almonds
balanced with a delicate finish with honey and milk chocolate flavors. Sure sounds appealing to me.
When I cut the seal on bag I'm hit with a very strong dark roast scent right away and something poignant but can't place the smell. Maybe it's the ceder they describe on the box and I'm intrigued to brew and try it.
Fits in my B70 perfectly and I use the 7.25 oz drop as I normally do. Smells good during brewing just like the extra bold dark roast Kcups I normally drink.
Brewed perfectly with no issues. Smells and tastes great in the Cup. Strong full bodied french roast with a smooth finish and I like it as does the wife.
I'm not one to name flavors and stuff like that so you will have to try it yourself for a more specific taste profile. Suffice it to say I give Fog Chaser a Big thumbs.

Don't be alarmed when you receive these and they don't look like a standard K-cup. These are not K-cups, but dowill fit in your machine. I thought I had ordered the wrong product at first. These simply have a plastic ring at the top so that they'll fit in your K-cup holder and the rest of it is like a standard coffee filter. I've only tried Fog Chaser (ordered all 3 flavors) and was surprised that I liked the coffee. However, because it's using a filter rather than the K-cup technology, it does leave a sediment in the bottom of your cup. I find this also happens when using the My K-Cup filter with whatever brand of coffee I use.You will need to store the "k-cups" in a ziploc to keep them fresh. The 36-count come packaged in 3 plastic bags of 12 each. This is nice so that you only have to open up one 12 pack at a time so the others can stay fresh.
I'm mostly neutral, but lean more toward "would buy again".

These do not look like regular K-cups. And perhaps they won't keep as long because the bottom looks like it's made of rounded cloth, kind of like a tea bag. But they fit Keurig machines just fine, are less expensive, and most importantly I think this coffee tastes better than the coffee in plastic K-cups. I actually prefer the fact that the bottom is not made of plastic. I never liked the idea that my hot coffee was being strained through a plastic cup. In fact, I just ordered more.
McCANN'S Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal, Quick & Easy, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
I first heard about steel cut oats on the Oprah show about its health benefits. First of all I DO NOT like regular oatmeal like you buy in the grocery store. I don't like the slimy texture. But I figured I'd try steel cut oats and I'm glad I did. They are delicous and very good for you! The warm nutty aroma when they are cooking is very appetizing and when you add a little bit of sugar or splenda and some cinnimon, it tastes fantastic! I also sometimes skip the cinnimon and add a tablespoon of granola and/or some dried berries. Excellent healthy breakfast. I highly recommend this product.For those of you who are asking what the difference is between regular oatmeal and steel cut oatmeal:
-Steel-Cut Oats are whole grain groats (the inner portion of the oat kernel) which have been cut into two or three pieces using steel discs. Golden in color and resembling mini rice particles, they are as nature intended nothing added and nothing taken out.
-Rolled oats are flake oats that have been steamed, rolled, re-steamed and toasted. Due to all of this additional processing they have lost some of their natural taste, goodness and texture.

Delicious and healthy... much better than regular oats... Be aware that during the first phase of cooking (in the microwave, anyway) it will bubble up and over even a deep bowl if you don't keep a close eye on it, stop the microwave frequently to stir, etc. Not a problem once it starts to thicken up.Great taste and texture.... to the reviewer who cooked it all night in the crockpot, to quote Dr. Phil, "What were you thinkin'??" (Southern accent on "thinkin'.) Maybe someone said that's the way to do it, but I think one of the great things about this product is it's al dente texture when cooked properly. Good stuff, Maynard!

This is not a typical oatmeal product. Some people mention a crunch, but I thought the texture was more like a chewy rice pudding. I also agree with the "nutty" flavor. The quick cooking is the best approach (over the 45 minute slow cook). I tried to cook it in the microwave, according to the instructions, but it did not beat the stove top method. It was either too much water or not enough. Anyway, it just tastes better cooked on the stove. Add your own toppings or eat it straight, I like it with a small amount of turbinado and some skim milk. The package is a little difficult to close after opening, so you may want to place the plastic bag in a storage container.Want McCANN'S Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal, Quick & Easy, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Discount?
I have been eating steel cut oats everyday for three years. I don't eat red meat anymore. My blood test show (or prove if you prefer) that oatmeat can reduce your risk of heart failure and stroke. I was at a high risk ratio three years ago and now it is back to normal. Eat this oatmeal everyday. It works.
Pacific Natural Foods Hazelnut Non-Dairy Beverage, Chocolate, 8-Ounce Containers (Pack of 24)
Rich, Creamy, Delicious!The taste and texture is irresistable. Read my review on the almond chocolate version, which this item is quite similar to. Except, I have to say this one is even richer and a favorite.
PROS: Healthy, Low sodium, Vegan, Gluten free, Vitamins, doesn't have to be refrigerated, portable as juice box size, dangerously delicious. And amazon.com seems again to have the best price on this with free s&h for $25+ orders. The peel tab comes off so easily, even better than the almond version.
CONS: If you have (i.e. kidney failure) restrictions, it has more protein than the almond version (which has 1g), and this one has 2g, though is still on the low side.
Drink with delight!
I recently bought some chicken broth by Pacific Natural, and I really like their company. I decided to see what else they have to offer, and found this chocolate hazelnut milk. Chocolate milk is a real weakness of mine, so I decided to give this stuff a shot as a bit of a healthier alternative. I was afraid I wouldn't like it because it is sold in bulk (I can't find it in stores near me), but to my delight, it is delicious! While it does not have the full body of real chocolate milk, it has a wonderful chocolate taste. This stuff reminds me of SlimFast or other choclate diet shakes in terms of the thinness of the milk as compared to real chocolate milk.
I love that the packages include four boxes with straws, like juice boxes. That definitely helps control portion size and also allows one to easily throw a container for an on-the-go beverage. I also like to put chocolate milk in my coffee, and this stuff works just as well!
So, from a dairy lover and from one who has not really enjoyed other milk alternativesthis chocolate hazelnut milk is awesome. When I use mine up, I will definitely be buying more!
