I personally found this product too sweet for my liking! I prefer the taste of regular unsweetened almond milk in my coffee. Although the consistency is nice, rich, and creamy, I wish that there were non-flavoured options available. For the price, I also found that this product goes quite fast. Would recommend this to someone who likes sugar in their coffee or prefers the taste of a brand like Tim Hortons. -

My in laws (from Slovakia) used to buy this product from European markets before it was available everywhere, so I've had the pleasure of experiencing this for over 7 years now! It really works and gets out the toughest stains. Leaves laundry smelling fresh without being overpowering as well. For its super effective stain removing and cleaning ability, I would say its absolutely worth every penny! Glad you can even buy this at Costco now! The gold standard in European laundry care :) -

While I actually love dill pickles, these chips were not a favourite! Not a fan of the thin Lay chips texture to begin with and found that the dill flavour was not a good addition to this for my personal palette. I didn't find the chips crunchy enough and prefer Ms. Vickie's and Kettle Cooked's textures; Lay's dill pickle was too wet after only a couple of bites. Nutritional value is on the very low end of the spectrum as well. For those who love more traditional potato chips though, this may still be a good option for your taste buds. -

Love this little coffee bar in New Port Village! A great place to stop in with friends after a hike or a casual Sunday afternoon brunch. The food menu here is also quite impressive for the little size of this cafe! Plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options as well, and they have almond milk for coffee, which is a must have for me! The staff here are also happy to make any substitutions in case of allergies or dietary preferences. Gets quite busy weekend afternoons, so I would recommend visiting during non-busy hours though. Great food, coffee, and service. If you enjoy live local music, they also often have entertainment on weekends. -

Super fresh meals every time! Love that these brown rice and salad bowls are made right in front of your eyes! However, if you are in the mood for a juice or burrito (including one wrapped in kale leaves), they can make that for you too. My current favourites are the bamboo and the pangoa bowl (although I would ask for an extra half serving of sauce if you have a drive after ordering the bamboo bowl - the rice rice soaks up all of the Thai curry). The smoked tofu here is also incomparable, would love to know who they're supplier is! Always fresh and ready within in less than 10 minutes. The new rewards program is also fantastic and you can earn up to $12 off of your purchase! Highly recommend trying Freshii and love the Suter Brook location; very clean, cute indoor and outdoor atmospheres to enjoy your meal, and well trained staff (I've only ever had one experience whereby they did not begin making my online order prior to arrival)! -

These kale chips are coated and dehydrated to perfection! Unfortunately they're only available at Tao in North Vancouver but they are absolutely worth trying if you are in the area. Love the salty taste and undterone of tahini! The nutritional yeast also gives them a wonderful cheesy flavour, enough to convince even non-vegans. The closest thing to these are doing it yourself! Although for seven plus hours of effort, sometimes its just worth indulging in these if you are in the area. My absolute favourite pre-made kale chips! -

Amazing raw vegan restaurant at Lonsdale Quay! Love the rawsagna at this place and can never resist purchasing something sweet afterwards. They also make the best kale chips in the Lower Mainland! While the food here is definitely more on the expensive side, every meal really is 100% guilt free; cruelty, gluten free, dairy free, and any other allergy you can think of free! Absolutely love raw vegan food and am surprised more people have not heard of this place. Tao does not just make salads! Cakes, burgers, and other traditional items with a fantastic spin! Worth every penny! Satisfied every visit :) -

A steep price tag but I have never experienced a tastier almond butter! The fact that its organic is even more reassuring. Love the naturally delicious creamy, nutty taste. This almond butter has a natural roasted taste as well which makes it fantastic for use on toast or for dipping pears or apples into. Love this product and will continue to buy it! -

Although definitely on the pricier side, this yogurt is absolutely delicious and not tainted by any plastic wrap! Love the cute little glass containers it comes in. At around $1.25 a pot (on sale!!), this is definitely one of those things I would consider to be a splurge item. The fig flavour is super unique and amazingly delicious! Worth trying if you are looking for a delicious and nutritious snack. Great any time of the day! -

Super rich dark chocolatey flavour with a hint of cherry! Love this coffee and find it grinds and makes an excellent cup of coffee in our Gaggia espresso machine. Not too bold and compliments my almond milk perfectly! Love this coffee and will often buy it on sale when I am waiting for a discount on my usual Illy! Worth a try. -
