I am not usually big on pineapple flavour, but I actually really liked this. It reminded me of the flavour of white gummy bears (which, now that I think about it, must be pineapple flavoured. Who knew?!)
My daughter (10 months old) and my husband also really liked this. It is one of the foods that we feed her, where if she doesn't finish it, we have no problem finishing it for her ;)
The fact that it has fibre in it is just an extra bonus. We buy the whole line of Mott's fruit sauces, because hey have such variety, and they have super foods in some, and veggies in others. All around, this is a great brand, and this is a great addition to the lineup.

Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Unsweetened Raspberry

I was happy to hear about this new line of Motts fruit cups. I was surprised to see something new, as I feel they have recently come out with other flavours, such as the ones with veggies added in. Having fiber added to a snack food is an excellent idea.
I like this raspberry flavour over the tropical flavour. Sometimes raspberry flavoured foods can taste very fake, and overly sweet. This has a good amount of natural tartness to it, and it tastes authentically like raspberries to me.

I used this after using the Idealia Life Serum and it had a nice texture.. It didn't seem greasy and it went onto my skin smoothly. My skin didn't feel dry shortly after like some poor quality moisturizers do. The one downfall to this is the scent! It is giving me a headache and I am actually going to have to go wash it off my face before I go to bed :( It smells pretty, kind of reminds me of roses a bit, but I cant stand it when cosmetics have scents to them. If I want scent on my body, I will get perfume. Facial cremes should not be scented, in my opinion. This also felt like a relatively middle of the road moisturizer in comparison to some others which I have tried and much prefer to this (Beauticontrol's Defend & Restore Moisture Night Creme is my go to.) Unfortunately, I am going to have to pass this on to a friend, because I will definitely not use it again. -

I can't really comment on the effectiveness of this product because I don't think I am going to use it beyond today. I have sensitivities to perfumes and scents, and this product is heavily scented. It felt fine going on my face, but within a few minutes I had a headache. It is unfortunate, for sure, but I will likely just pass it along to a friend. I must note, the smell itself is very nice, it's just that I react negatively to it if I do anything more than sniff the product in the bottle. One other thing I noticed is that it seems to be more of a lotion than a serum just going by its consistency. I also tried the Idealia Skin Sleep and the texture was very similar. -

I must have super sensitive teeth, because this doesn't really make my teeth noticeably less sensitive. The only time I notice a difference is if I run out and use some other toothpaste, then I feel more sensitivity in my teeth. As for the whitening, I haven't noticed anything in that front, either. I would use something stronger, but my teeth are too sensitive for that, so at least having a sensitive whitening option is nice. The taste is great, too. -

This is literally the only perfume I have ever been able to wear in my entire life. I'm allergic to perfume and have been my whole life, but when I tried this perfume, I was amazed that it didn't give me a headache or cause me to break out into a rash. Not only that, but it smells amazing and my husband loves it. Can't go wrong with that! It is also an effective mosquito repellent. That smells SO much better than wearing bug spray! -

I gave this a bit of a hit for the price, because it is not inexpensive, by any means. However, it is, in my opinion, worth every penny. The downfall is that it is not easy to find. I have to drive about 40 minutes to the closest store that regularly carries this flour. Pamela's is a popular brand and many stores carry it, but they tend not to have this product on their shelves, for some reason. That is another downfall.
Now for the positives:
This flour works perfectly as a cup for cup substitute for regular wheat flour, granted, you will need to use some xanthan gum to help it hold together. The texture is so perfect. It is not gritty at all, nor is it dense. I use it for most of my recipes that have been converted over from a traditional wheat flour recipe. IT works really well as a thickener in soup and gravy as well.

I'm allergic to wheat as well as corn, so finding a suitable gluten free wrap is difficult. These wraps have been my go to ever since I discovered them. I use them primarily for making quesedillas. They hold together really well for that purpose, but not if you want to have them as a regular wrap (cold). They come frozen, so when you thaw them out, they tend to crack, making it difficult to eat a wrap filled with other ingredients. The taste is so good, though, that I keep using them for wraps anyway, despite the mess. I've been told that if I rinse the wraps off with water and then pat them dry with a towel that they will hold together better in a cold wrap. I tried it out, and while it was mildly better, my wraps were still falling apart before I could finish eating them. -

These Gogo Quinoa Chocolate Chip cookies are an excellent snack for a foodie like me who has allergies! They have a great taste, they are filling and they satisfy my sweet tooth. I love that they come individually wrapped, so I can just throw a couple in my purse for when I am on the go. The only downfall is that they can be a bit dry. Considering that they are gluten free, that is to be expected, and they are definitely not as dry as some other brands I have tried. -
