OMG Peanut Butter Pretzels clusters with milk chocolate
These OMG's are the best I've tried so far (but I haven't had them all). They give a good hit of peanut butter, lighter on chocolate. 4 pieces is a 100 calorie snack. Sugar & palm kernel oil are the first 2 ingredients however. They don't look as... +
These OMG's are the best I've tried so far (but I haven't had them all). They give a good hit of peanut butter, lighter on chocolate. 4 pieces is a 100 calorie snack. Sugar & palm kernel oil are the first 2 ingredients however. They don't look as pictured on the bag, so they wouldn't look attractive on a candy plate if serving guests, say. They're more meant for just eating out of the bag. -

Quench has shea butter and vitamins E & B3. It is indeed non greasy without being too light. The claim is that it breaks the cycle of dry skin - I'd love to hope so! What I notice after how nicely it applies, is the pleasant scent. So I put it on my arms & hands to linger throughout the day. -
Nescafe Gold

Often when I get samples, the product isn't that wow, so I don't purchase. But this is an excellent example of the samples being impressive. The K cup samples of this new coffee I received were so tasty, when I was all out, I purchased a jar. Gold has a distinct taste, strong & flavourful for a "regular" coffee. And I'm a flavoured coffee drinker, hazelnut, French vanilla, etc. For a superior reasonably priced instant coffee, this is the One. -
Quality Street Chocolates

This appears to be an annual Christmas gift I receive. Hey, I can think of worst gifts. You've got chocolate, fudge, toffee, caramel, fruit crème, nut - something for everyone. My faves are the fudge, crèmes and orange crunch. There are never enough of the fudge ones. My least favourite is the coconut éclair. They're too hard. That's not an éclair to me. Currently there are toffees remaining in my box, because I just had a tooth pulled, which is likely due to too many toffees. :-( -
Jergens Natural Glow +Firming Daily Moisturizer

Natural Glow was the first self tanner I tried, and it continues to work well and be priced affordably. I use medium, and get the results I want, certainly not an overly bronzed orange look. There will always be some smearing around the feet, that's just a difficult area to self tan. I particularly like the scent, which is important, because it lasts, and shouldn't have that excessive fake tanner smell. -
Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm with Vitamin-E & Peppermint
This is my husbands go-to lip balm. Probably because it's not tinted or fruit flavoured like most of my lip balms. ;-) He uses it in the morning, then often throughout the day & always when out - so I guess he's a bit addicted to lip balm. S'ok, all... +
This is my husbands go-to lip balm. Probably because it's not tinted or fruit flavoured like most of my lip balms. ;-) He uses it in the morning, then often throughout the day & always when out - so I guess he's a bit addicted to lip balm. S'ok, all things considered, there are worst addictions. Plus the ingredients are fine, so it's all good. -

I like a new snack that incorporates it all: chocolate, something gooey & something crunchy. The quality of the chocolate, caramel & pretzels is high, and everything is fresh. They are addicting!
These also do a decent job of actually looking like the image on the package. The cocoa is even sustainable.
(There is no pic of this flavour online, so I used peppermint fudge, the other flavour I bought.)

Forget pumpkin spice, gingerbread's where it's at! It's an appealing seasonal holiday flavour that I would like year round. I could smell the gingerbread when I opened the box, and there's a good amount of it in the cookie. The chocolate quality is nice.
When they were $2, it was a great value. For sure I'd buy again, but they are, unfortunately, limited time. :(

President's Choice has done it again with a great unique new product. The strong aroma hits you as soon as you open the box, that's what I'm talking about! This tea/coffee combination is spiced with roasted chicory root, cinnamon bark, ginger root, black pepper seeds, and espresso. It gives you the caffeinated kick you need along with the tasty chai. It's ideal with milk as a latte. -
Jalapeno lime aioli dipping sauce

Ever since I tried aioli for the first time with sweet potato fries at a pub, I knew this would be my new go-to condiment! I like Culinary Treasures chipotle mayo, and this one is also right up my alley. Jalapeño and lime is such a tasty combo in other foods like chips, so this sauce works well. I use it on fries, in sandwiches like tuna, and on burgers. It is high in calories (100 per TBSP), so an indulgence for sure. Purchased at Costco in a 2 pack, it's a great value. -
