I've never had a nut mix like this before. It's an unusual combination of flavours that work really well together. They're not overly sweet but have an indulgent taste so the small size package makes sense; you likely won't be binge eating these snacks but will instead eat a few then put the bag away feeling satisfied with a little taste of fruity nutty richness. The price of them is pretty steep for the size of the package but maybe on sale I'd get more or try another flavour combination. The one I tried had macadamia nuts and mango, tangerine and other flavours in it. Funky and fun combination! -
Nature valley peanut butter chocolate granola cups
I wasn't sure what to expect but assumed these would be soft and chewy. Instead they're firm and basically a peanut butter cookie with a chocolate bottom. They do taste good but are messy and crumbly to eat. If you're looking for fancier cookies... +
I wasn't sure what to expect but assumed these would be soft and chewy. Instead they're firm and basically a peanut butter cookie with a chocolate bottom. They do taste good but are messy and crumbly to eat. If you're looking for fancier cookies these'll do but if you want healthy snacks these are not it. -

I noticed the Fine noodles recently at the grocery store and wanted to give them a try. I used to buy the broader egg noodles in this brand years ago and then lost my taste for them. I'm so glad I gave the fine ones a try because they cook fast and satisfy a craving for pasta without feeling like you've eaten a heavy meal afterwards. I think they'll be great in soup as well. I'll be getting more of these as a pantry staple specifically in the fine variety which are like matchstick size rather than the larger broad wavy noodles. -

It's a relief to find a hot chocolate that tastes like its basic ingredients and not like it's made in a science lab. It smells and tastes wonderful and refreshing and the only thing I'd hope for is that this product will be made available in the future with a slightly lower sugar content. It tastes a bit too sweet for my taste buds first thing in the morning but I think until they make a lower sugar option in this line adding some cocoa and more water to dilute that sugar hit will make it perfect for cold mornings.
I had forgotten what normal hot chocolate tastes like and this product reminded me and happily so. I'll be watching for it in larger containers in my local grocery stores because the 400g size tin won't last long in wintertime.

I tried these today and was impressed by how good they tasted. I'd been looking for a replacement for the Fibre One protein bars that no longer are available and this is comparable although the other bars had some crunch to them. These are filling and soft, don't crumble and make a mess when you bite into them and the chocolate didn't melt all over my fingers which I really appreciate!
I'd buy more of these on sale to have as a tide me over snack between meals. And as a way to indulge a chocolate peanut butter craving without the mess.

This does soften skin and has a nice scent to it but it took a while to soak in to my skin and in the meantime my skin felt kind of greasy so if you use it be sure you don't have to touch anything for several minutes afterwards. I only had a single use sample of this to try but may try it again to see how it works in Canadian winter when skin dries out more than any other time of the year. -

I received a sample of this conditioner and the matching shampoo recently and had low expectations but was blown away but what a great product it is. It has a light and pleasant scent and does not leave a filmy feeling on my hair after use. I'm really glad I got to try it but after seeing the price of it in stores won't be switching to using it regularly as my normal shampoo and conditioner combo are far less costly and do a great job too.
Terrific product just not in my budget.

I've used this product to restore life and moisture into my feet and hands in wintertime and any other time my skin is dry. It feels kinda greasy at first but once it soaks in in super softens my skin and seems to also help trap that new moisture from escaping my skin for a while as well. After a bath I put it on then a pair of socks and my feet feel like a million bucks. Even without the bath (or shower), it's easy to slather on to dry skin and rub it in for a foot rub foot therapy combo that is amazing and worth every penny! Any excess I rub into my hands to soften them because the company's hand cream is not the same consistency and does not soften my hands as well as the foot cream. But it on sale to really get your money's worth of this skin saving product especially if you live in a dry climate. -

I tried this on my dry skin hands and it soaked in well after a few minutes. It does leave them softer but the smell of the product is strong and may not be for everyone; it wasn't for me. I think that on dry hand skin that other cheaper products are as effective and some soak in to skin faster. -

I am used to fast absorbing skin lotions so trying this was a big change. My skin was tacky and sticky where the lotion had been rubbed on for a long time; then it eventually absorbed or was rubbed off as I went about the day. My skin feel softer a long time later and there was no reaction to my skin in terms of sensitivities so I'd say it works well but do not expect to rub this on and go especially if it's on your hands or any other body part coming into contact with anything for the next 30 minutes or more. I did not notice a scent on the lotion either and that was a welcome thing for me as well. I'll stick with other brands that absorb faster, cost less and do the job as well or better. -
