I used Plantrophy's jackfruit Pepperoni as a replacement for actual pepperoni in my pizza pinwheels recipe and they were absolutely delicious. At first, I was a bit concerned because when I tried a defrosted one out of the package, they tasted fine but didnt give me that pull-apart/stretchy texture that pepperoni has. But that all changed once you actually cook them. They're tasty, well-seasoned, and can definitely pass as pepperoni to any recipe.

I always find L'Occitane's quality to be the best around. In short, you get what you pay for. 👏🏼
While this delightful mist is not supposed to be a replacement for your everyday perfume, it certainly smells just as good. It can be spritz on your hair and skin before you head out, leaving you with a sweet, almondy aroma everywhere you go. 🥰 I loved how it is a non-sticky formula and is incredibly long-lasting.

Don't be like me....It's important to read the instructions because I simply raw-dogged this mask onto my skin, not realizing it has a removeable mesh - two, in fact! Thankfully I was able to take off the mask and remove the outer mesh and re-apply it to my face. Then I removed the outer mesh et voila: I was ready to read while the mask worked its magic.
Fifteen minutes later, I removed the mask and massaged the contents into my skin. My face really did feel fresh and hydrated without that slimy, chemical feel I get from other, lesser well known, brands. For $10 a pop, they are definitely on the pricey end but if you're looking for consistent results, this very well be the answer you're looking for1

I enjoyed all 3 of these, but the unscented probably the least. I think its a great option for those who want to keep their lips moisturized and healthy without a flavour, but I personally prefer something with a bit more taste. It does the job of keeping your lips soft and crack-free, so it 100% works! -
Softlips™ Melty Cream Lip - Rich Honey Flavour

While typically don't enjoy anything honey-flavoured, but this was an exception. It glided on buttery smooth, kept my lips moisturized throughout my entire beach day and it tasted really sweet. I think I'd like to save this flavour for the Autumn, when the leaves begin to turn and all I want is to cozy up indoors with a good book. Not sure what it was, but this flavour had me feeling those Fall vibes hard! -
Softlips™ Melty Cream Lip - Strawberry Flavour

I loved this entire lineup, but hands-down my favourite had to be this strawberry flavour. It was sweet, fruity, an reminded me of a time (long, long ago) when I was a kid who obsessively used lip balm. And, you guessed it, strawberry was my go-to flavour. So its nostalgic reminder along with its moisturizing qualities definitely made it my fav of the 3 that I tested. -

We decided to add the turkey bacon as special a treat inside our hamburgers. Although I had preferred to cook the bacon directly on the grill alongside the burgers, the package advised to cook the turkey bacon in a skillet instead. It was a smidge inconvenient as I had 1 more thing to wash, but definitely not a deal breaker.
Alas, once it was cooked and added to our burger it tasted...meh? Although I cooked it as per the directions, I wonder if I should have left it on the skillet alot longer... I found it cooked but didn't crisp up (probably due to the lack of fat in it). I love how lean it is and I think it would make a wonderful addition to a sandwich maybe in lieu of deli meat. However, I wouldn't add it to my burger as a topping nor eat it solo as part of a breakfast.

I'm not a fan of the alcoholic sting of most mouthwashes, so I was very interested to try TheraBreath to see how it stacks up against the competition. First off: this bottle is phenomenal, I am here for all the sparkles. Its super cute and the lid doubles as a cup for the product, as it should. Alas, that is where the praise ends with me...
After flossing and brushing, I rinsed, gargled, and was pleasantly surprised when it didn't have that super strong alcohol taste. However, after spitting the mouthwash out, it left an unpleasant taste in my mouth that I couldn't quite put my finger on. It wasn't alcoholic but it was very strong and I had to rinse my mouth with water shortly after (which kind of defeats the purpose). I do wonder if this "Whitening" version has slightly different formula vs the rest of their lineup ("Healthy Gums", "Fresh Breath" and "AntiCavity"), thus the overpowering taste.

Butterball Turkey Franks

These fellas are thick so you won't have to worry about them slipping in between your BBQ grills. They're gluten-free, packed with protein and are a mere 100 calories per frank - a little less than your average hot dog!
We dressed our franks with your classic toppings including ketchup, mustard, a wee bit of mayo, and some homemade pickles with a side of macaroni salad. Taste-wise, I honestly couldn't tell the difference between these and beef hot dogs! They're juicy and super flavourful - I would happily eat one of these vs a normal hot dog any day of the week if only to have more protein to keep me full longer.

PanOxyl PM Overnight Spot Patches

Forgetting the biggest fight of my life with applying these patches, I can confirm that these little guys are awesome! My issue isn't so much "curing" pimples/acne as it is ensuring I don't pick at them while they're growing. So these patches offer a barrier as a reminder so I don't absentmindedly tear into a growing pimple, especially the cystic ones I get every so often. I love how they blend seamlessly onto my skin and you can apply makeup directly onto the patches.
Full disclosure: I LOVE Panoxyl's entire lineup. Infact, I use their AM oil control and balancing renewal PM moisturizers every day and night. They're a budget-friendly company that puts alot of thought into every one of their products to ensure you're on the right path to clearer skin.
