Tazo Zen Green Tea
I bought the Tazo Zen because I like mint teas, but this goes way beyond just mint. It has hints of lemongrass and spearmint too. The taste is fresh and clean and smooth. Love it!

I really liked the taste of the Good & Simple Cranberry Orange + Flax Bars. Thanks Chick Advisor for letting me try them free. They have a great texture...moist but with some "chew" to them and a bit of crunch from the flax. The flavour combination is delicious. These are a winner. -

I got a coupon to try these muffins free of charge. Thanks Chic Advisor! A package retails for $4.99 plus tax. It contains 4 individually wrapped muffins, which makes it very handy to toss one in a lunch bag. They taste good and the banana flavour really comes through and hides the bran. The texture is a bit oily. I pinched a bit of the muffin and my fingers were left with an oily residue. The muffins are not very large but they have 290 calories with over 30 grams of carbs each. There are certainly more items in the ingredients list than would be present in a batch of homemade muffins. Convenience is their best feature. -

I received a free coupon in the mail to try Kraft All-Natural Peanut Butter with Sea Salt. When I opened the jar there was about an inch of oil on top of the peanut butter, and it took a LOT of stirring to mix it in. Seems to be staying somewhat mixed now though. I only buy natural peanut butter, and it's nice to see that Kraft is on board with the natural. The consistency is runny-er than my usual brand. The taste is very nutty, which is great. Eating it on its own, I found that it tasted just a bit too salty. When paired with sweet things like fruit, it's fine. -
Siracha hot sauce
Sriracha hot sauce gives a savory and spicy kick to whatever you put it on. I like that it is not sour like "red-hot" sauce. Instead, this has a balanced heat and garlic spiciness. It's hot enough to give some zing, but not too hot so you can use... +
Sriracha hot sauce gives a savory and spicy kick to whatever you put it on. I like that it is not sour like "red-hot" sauce. Instead, this has a balanced heat and garlic spiciness. It's hot enough to give some zing, but not too hot so you can use it liberally on food. It's a staple in my house. -

This has become my new favorite ice cream/gelato! The flavours of almond and pistachio gelato come through well and are balanced perfectly by the swirl of chocolate gelato. And Chapman's gelato has less fat than ice cream. This reminds me of the spumoni ice cream I used to get as a kid. -

Let me preface my comments by saying that I usually use moisturizers that are very hydrating, but quite light rather than rich. The Neovadiaol day cream goes on a bit heavier than I'm used to. It soaks in quite quickly, but my skin sort of feels coated or covered. I did get good results from using the product. My skin stayed soft and nourished all day. I did not get the tight feeling that sometimes happens later in the day when my skins dries out after after using a lighter product. This cream would be great for winter, but I found it a bit heavy feeling for summer. -

I loved the Neovadiaol Night Compensating Complex Cream. It has a fresh, light scent and a cool, light texture. It is very hydrating and provides a bit of rich creaminess too. The cream absorbs well and feels quite weightless. My skin stays soft and nourished for hours after using it. I have tried it in the morning as a day cream too, and my skin feels great all day. -
Vichy Neovadiol Compensating Complex Serum
This serum is easy to use. A small (pea size) amount is all I need to cover my face and neck. If I have a bit left on my fingertips, I smooth it on the backs of my hands ('cause I'm getting crepey there) and it plumps up the skin nicely. The serum... +
This serum is easy to use. A small (pea size) amount is all I need to cover my face and neck. If I have a bit left on my fingertips, I smooth it on the backs of my hands ('cause I'm getting crepey there) and it plumps up the skin nicely. The serum absorbs almost instantly, leaving my skin soothed and soft with almost a powdery feeling. The product does not feel greasy at all and works well under another moisturizer. I also especially love using it right after exfoliating my skin to nourish and calm it. -
