Not up to snuff
I'm sorry to be a spoiler, but the tree I received is nothing like what the earlier reviewers apparently received. Theirs may look something like the photo, mine doesn't. You be the judge. Mine came in a 4" diameter round pot, 3" high, with 2 1/2" of soil in it. My tree is not more than 5 1/2" tall from the soil line to the top. The foliage is no more than 1/3 that of the pictured tree, and the branches all extend from the top 1/2" of the trunk, virtually all of them horizontally. They are tiny. It will require a year or two of careful attention for mine to begin to approach the size and shape of the pictured tree. The tree arrived at the bottom of a tall shipping box, which had been filled with styrofoam "peanuts," with no protection provided against crushing. Not surprisingly, one of the branches was bent and broken. Okay, it was only a $10 tree (plus postage), but I doubt than anyone would have paid that much for it if they had seen it in a store. I've given two stars, because it does appear to be a tree of the right species and it's alive. I could send it back, but that sounds like a lot of trouble and like throwing good money after bad. I'm a little concerned, because before this one arrived I had already ordered two other small trees at $15 each from Hirt's Gardens, and I wonder what I will be getting. | 0negative

season sardines
terrible - not tiny as described - had 19 in can. they are cross packed, but should have 30 -32 in can to be the real good ones. KING OSCAR are the best of all - if you can find them. no more of these for me (SEASONS)ever. | 0negative

Think Irritable Bowel Syndrome
I had to throw the whole case out.I'm not unusually sensitive, but they are so high in hydrolyzed vegetable protein (the ingredient-list euphemism for MSG) that even a small amount used as seasoning was enough to set off a major 24-hour case of "Chinese Restaurant Syndrome." Not worth the risk. | 0negative

Love that mint
We order by the case. This peppermint is clear and strong tasting. Celestial Seasonings is great at packaging the taste as if you just picked the leaves. During cold winter months we drink this tea every night. | 1positive

I like this soup.
It isn't the same as hot and sour soup from my favorite Chinese restaurant, not even close, but it's easy to fix, relatively healthy and tastes pretty good. I guess if you aren't expecting something in particular you won't be disappointed. I just enjoy it for what it is, a light, tasty soup. | 1positive

It works.
I have a 4 month old baby and he stopped nursing as i had to introduce the bottle early. However since I was determined to give him breastmilk and my supply had gone down to 1oz I was desperate to look for solutions. After reseaching many websites and then reading reviews on amazon I decided to try this tea.I took 5 bags of tea and let them soak in hot boiling water and drank it through the day. My supply gradually stated going up even though my son never nursed. I then started taking 3 bags for maintaining my supply.As far as the tea goes even though it has many contents it tastes like you are eating the fennel seeds. Its not the best taste for a tea but its not bad especially if it works.Also you get used to the taste.I am planning to continue to use it as long as I want to give my son breastmilk. At one point i was consistently making 4 oz everytime i pump. I have stopped it and since then my supply has gone down but I am going to start again.Update 1/8/2012I was able to provide breastmilk upto 10 months for my son using tea. At one point I was actually producing 8ounces each time. Will definitely use it again in the future for our second one too. | 1positive

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS VENDOR UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
BEWARE! These people are entirely incompetent and indifferent to customer service. They sent me an order via expedited shipping, charging me over $40.00 for the privilege when I didn't request expedited shipping. Then they took four days to get the product to me. When I complained, they took way too long to respond and refused to do anything to rectify their mistakes. This is the only bad experience I have had with an Amazon vendor, but it has certainly changed my outlook on doing business with its product sellers.Bowling Ball and Pin in Solid Milk ChocolateHappy Birthday Cake in Solid Milk ChocolateFrench Chocolates - Boxed Assortment926 Assorted Boxed Chocolates - 5 lb - All Dark Chocolate926 Assorted Boxed Chocolates - 2 lb -All Dark ChocolateHer Choice Assortment of Boxed Chocolates - 1lb - Alll Milk ChocolateGolf Bag in Solid Milk Chocolate with 3 White Golf BallsBowling Ball and Pin in Solid Milk Chocolate | 0negative

not very brownie or crunchy...
i was recently diagnosed w/ gestational diabetes... thus began my quest for a yummy protein bar... this isn't it. i'm giving it 2 stars because my blood sugar levels were within the desired range after having it as a snack. i'm going to try the other flavors, but this one definitely is not one i'd like to have again. | 0negative

Best Pre-packaged Soup Out There
I love this soup. It's low in salt (which is hard to find in a good soup). I always have a few of these on hand. They're great when you're sick. Add a little hot sauce to amp up the heat. Highly recommend. | 1positive

Delicious organic fruit leather...
This fruit snack is really just fruit leather. That is, they smush together an organic apple and other berry fruits, don't add any sugar or perservatives, and put in it a pouch as a strip. They're not fruit "snacks" in the traditional sense, with small shapes and such.Anyway, they're organic, pretty cheap, and taste really nice. 70 calories each, and healthy. | 1positive

Horrible stuff
I am a great lover of licorice. And I don't know what this stuff is, but it ain't licorice. It has a strong ammonia taste, and reminds me more of droppings in a cat's litter box than any sort of candy. I've been told this is just a 'different' sort of licorice, and it's meant to be slightly salty, instead of sweet. But I'm not confusing ammonia with salt. This definitely has a urine odor, and since I've never tasted cat urine, I can only guess this is what it would taste like. Don't waste your money. This might make you ill. | 0negative

Disquisting
I had brought these in the store.. They are absolutely horriable! I make mine every year and decided to grab a bag on my way to work. They taste like sea salt water. Very disappointed with them coming from the company. Its a pain to clean and bake your own seeds, but I rather do that then try to eat another on of these. | 0negative

taste as bad as spoil water
i am a huge fan of coconut juice. Living in florida for almost 20 years. i tasted the best source of coconut juice which is directly from the tree. But it's hard to climb the freaking trees. I love Vitacoco, because the taste is the closest to the real taste of coconut. Not recommend zico at all because they have bad quality control, taste horrible. | 0negative

It fits senseo Machine and brews a dark, tasty, frothy cup (with a little help from instant coffee)
I have tried pods that aren't made for the Senseo machine and have often had steam blown out and boiling water leaks. I'm addicted to the frothy cup that the Senseo machine makes and wouldn't switch to a Kcup brewer.(the pods are also more ecologic than plastic Kcups and can be preserved well in any jar with a tight fitting lid)This Kona is rich and flavorful, but not strong enough for my taste. I supplement it with about a quarter tsp of instant coffee--sometimes decaf and sometimes espresso. | 1positive

I love these BUT.....
Maybe it's because of the freezing cold, or perhaps the vendor is supplying improperly handled products? These snaps are mostly broken & dry. Buyer beware, the one I bought from the local 7 Eleven were firm & tasty. These are dry and crumbly without the buttery honey sesame taste we all love. | 0negative

Updated Review
After writing my review, I contacted the manufacturer, the problem with the Hollandaise sauce is that Amazon sent me some that was 5 years old. Mayacamas foods promptly replaced it and it is just great! If I could change the star rating here I would give them a 5- 4 for the product and an extra star for being a super nice company to deal with!!!I used this product a few years ago and was delighted with it, then I bought 12 packages of it from Amazon and have tried making it 4 times, and each time is a disaster. It separates and is grainy. I am very disappointed. I am not sure if I got a 'bad batch' or if Mayacamas did something to this product, but whatever the issue is- don't waste your money! | 0negative

Ricochet
These are probably the strongest mints I've tasted other than Smints. They are about the size and shape of a sweet tart. Like the previous reviews stated, they are kind of crumbly and dissolve quickly in your mouth. Good for a quick blast of mint to coat your mouth. If you're looking for a mint to suck on, you're better off with Spry. | 1positive

Better living through chemistry
The local grocery store is going out of business so I picked this up at 25% off. I was happy to find something in the soup aisle that wasn't Campbells or Progresso. Unfortunately the family was less inspired by the end result.Alessi Zuppa Toscana cooks up easily. Once you get past the romanticized marketing verbiage, the instructions wrap by suggesting that you add some olive oil to the final product, followed by topping it with grated cheese. I like these touches but ultimately the servings went largely uneaten. I told one kid no dessert until he'd finished the cup of soup. My wife intervened, saying the soup had an aftertaste and she wasn't keen on its consistency either. These things didn't bother me. I'm not sure what she meant but given that it's a bean soup it's going for "hearty". It wasn't one of those "brimming with subtle flavors" products, but I wasn't expecting that anyway.I should have glanced at the ingredients and nutritional information before loading up the shopping cart with interesting products from the soup aisle. Amazon does a good job of listing the ingredients, so it's up to you if you're okay with MSG and other entries that can serve as euphemisms for "more MSG". As with most processed soups, this is high in sodium - 660mg to a one cup serving. If laboratory concoctions like hydrolized or autolyzed anything are acceptable, this could work well for you as a soup base. As is, the final product results in four one cup servings. | 0negative

Finally!
I have been searching for this product in area supermarkets for over a year. I just happened to notice the grocery category on amazon and thought "what the heck, I have tried everywhere else" and there it was. I placed the order and it arrived within 3 or 4 days. I was amazed. Very pleased! | 1positive

the best of Baker
Chocolate Chunk Raisin is the second best of all the Erin Baker cookies I've tried (the first is double chocolate chunk cherry but I've been on the wait list for that one for a long time). Like all the breakfast cookies, chocolate chunk raisin is nourishing and filling, starting the day with the cookie makes it easy to keep weight down. Well done, Erin. | 1positive

better than Campbells
when I am facing a deadline - which seems to be always these days--I often need a break and a little nourishment. I had been picking up Campbells soup in a similar tube. Nuke it, instant din-din. Since I often write all night, soup is a nice pick me up. Campbells tubs suffers from the same problem Campbells cans did--marbles at the bottom of the bowl. Just too watery, not enough filler, mostly weak broth. Progesso soups look like Campbells with the marbles, lots of noodles and veggies. Real flavour.I also like they don't over salt their soups. Campbells tends to lean heavy on the salt to cover up for real flavour.So thanks for the freebie. I enjoyed it, and will be ordering more. | 1positive

Would Definitely Recommend!
Ok, now I understand why so many people online recommend using AmeriColor brand for my icing and fondant-coloring needs. I bought the black, and the color was super strong. Worked really well. I'll probably buy one of their color kits now that I know it's a great brand.The only thing I haven't tried yet is using it to color melted chocolate - I've been told that water-based dyes like this one will make the chocolate crumble. But *shrug* it doesn't hurt to try. I will give an update when I do! | 1positive

I didn't like it.
I do admit to not being the healthiest eater, but I am trying to improve. I liked that the product description said, "100% Fruit. No preservatives. Suitable for low glycemic index and diabetic diets." I do like berries and the reviews I read were glowing. I even signed up for subscribe and save. I anticipated liking these bars. I was disappointed. I just canceled my subscription. They do have a berry flavor, but it isn't prominent; more of an after-taste. The texture is that of a soft, chewy fruit leather. It sticks to your teeth, which I would assume will cause dental problems if it isn't removed promptly. These were not the sort of bars I was hoping for. I do want to add that if you are looking for something that will increase the amount of fiber you consume, these are better than those chalky tablets. It does provide 3g of dietary fiber. It also has 140 calories. Since there is a lot of concern about where products are made, this bar says "Product of Canada" under the ingredients and it also says "prepared by Kettle Valley Dried Fruits" with an address in Oroville, WA. | 0negative

Excellent assortment
I prefer drinking black or white tea most of the time, but now and again, an herbal tea really hits the spot. This is a great assortment of flavors - all are tasty (although the peppermint and ginger are the best!) so you don't get tired of the same old thing. Good value when purchased under the subscribe and save option.The flavor for some, such as the lemon and orange, are a bit on the weak side for my taste, but if you let it steep extra long, the flavor comes through. The lemon is also good in combination with a mild black tea. | 1positive

Our Favorite
We can't get this hot sauce in the DC area so we order pretty regularly. Lately our friends have been using as well and they're getting to like it as well. It's a sturdy hot sauce that has strong flavor, so don't over do it. | 1positive

Disaster for Diet, but Tasty on Your Tongue
Twinkies rank high on my list of pure junk foods. The sugar and corn syrup in Twinkies help push the calorie count to around 150. I do not care to think about what kind of fats and carbs go in to the 150 calories.On the other hand, I grew up with Twinkies. I used to eat them as fast as I could get my hands on them. Unfortunately, I am unable to do that any more. You get older, you get smarter, I guess. But I still like an occasional Twinkie. Yes, they are sweet. Yes, they have too many calories. But, they taste good! I wish they still offered banana creme Twinkies.More recently people have actually enhanced the calories in a Twinkie by deep frying them. Cooking a Twinkie should be something you do only with great care. There is a process to successfully making a deep fried Twinkie, and there are many processes that do not work. To the best of my knowledge all of the processes yield even more calories, but even better flavor. You get the general idea. The better Twinkies taste, the more calories they have. Go figure.Twinkies in their current form will never be mistaken for a health food. But I will probably continue to indulge in one periodically for as long as I can.Enjoy! | 1positive

Better than Similac
As baby formula users, we've tried both Enfamil and Similac. We have been using the Enfamil recently for two reasons: they say that it has a special additive that mimics breast milk -- I don't know if that's true, but my son seems to like it. But, more important to us, the Enfamil is a finer grain that dissolves in water cleanly. With the similac, we found that it tended to clump more in the nipple of the bottle, and was a pain to shake up.This product is available at local stores, but the price at Amazon with the free shipping was a smidgen cheaper. And you don't have to lug it home from the store.Good product. | 1positive

Didn't stand behind their product !
I bought this based on the good product reviews. Quality and freshness was good but the Couscous has no flavor at all. It's bland but I can eat it since it's like mush or dry barley. I add it to soup or to lettuce with soy sauce and Parmesan cheese, good as a soup too. Also is better when cold.I bought Couscous at a local health nut store that has great taste by itself so I know Couscous should be flavorful at least outside of India or Iceland.I bought 30 boxes of the stuff so it will be not fun to eat.UPDATE: I Found mold clumps (mold + Couscous) at the bottom of the inside of all my boxes. I emailed Hodgson Mill and they tried to blame Amazon.They didn't stand behind their product nor seemed to care at all. They sent me 5 .35 cent coupons for my next purchase (!). I also had problems with Weevils (A weevil is a beetle. Weevils are often found in dry foods including nuts and seeds, cereal and grain products, such as pancake mix) in their Macaroni & Cheese Dinner Boxes.I won't be buying from Hodgson Mill EVER AGAIN. | 0negative

Another Flavor and another thumbs up!
This is the second flavor from Izze I have tried. The first was the Clementine. Tasty and not syrupy I really enjoyed the flavor. I tried the Blackberry. Unlike the Clementine flavor the name of the drink also makes up one of the juices used to make the beverage, blackberry. Like the Clementine a cocktail of juices from concentrate are added like Apple Juice and Lemon Juice to give a balanced flavor.This is not a drink to hydrate in quantity so much as a tasty pick me up. The drink does not have caffeine or added sugars so I don't feel bad about drinking it. It isn't overly sweet so it adds a bit of energy rather then making me tired.90 calories for just over 8 ounces is starting to get up there for me. That is enough calories that I at least have to think about when I drink the beverage. A great drink, a good company and thumbs up in my book. The only issue I had is the calories. | 1positive

Sugar Daddy - The Real Thing
The Sugar Daddy was and apparently still is one of the best suckers/pop of all time. At least I think so. They are also an excellent check for loose fillings. I wasn't sure if the ones I ordered would be the same as existed in the 50s and 60s. They are. Today they may be sealed better but are still the same great tasting caramel. Now if only I could hide them from my grandchildren. ;-) | 1positive

I'll stick with the conventional cooking method......
Have enjoyed Annie's White Mac & Cheese very much, but this microwavable variety is more trouble than its worth. You must use a very deep & wide bowl to use in the microwave or the water will boil over and you'll be left with very hot, uncooked macaroni in the bowl and a starchy mess in the microwave. It is much easier to make the conventional variety in a pot! | 0negative

Love it...
I bought this tea in New York for the first time. I found it at one of the store here in Hawaii but never ordered it again by the store. I have been looking for this tea for months. I love this tea. It has a strong vanilla flavor. I like strong flavor. You don't have to even put sugar. I like drinking it every night. Tea are great for your health to flush your system.

nice design, but needs improvement
The silit bread box has a very unique design, however it can use some improvement. First of all the roll back is made of breakable glass. It should be made of some form of unbreakable glass. My first one came with the glass shattered, the second one came with the frame bend. I gave up. I don't want to take any more chances, but I trully love the attractive bread box. If in the future they correct it, I will be the first one in line to buy it. | 0negative

MM tastes like..Filter
Ok, so it is nice making ones own pods, the system is simple enough, takes some work not to get a spill, and if over or under packed forget about the crema layer. These would all be tolerable if it was not for the filter itself, the cheap filter material requires a certain saturation point to work properly and upon achieving this the filter contaminates the flavor of the coffee. Now, regular Senseo pods get a hint of filter themselves, but nothing to this extreme. Now, in defense of the company, I am a home roaster, I take the roast character and flavor of my coffee very seriously and can often identify origin characteristics in even the horrendously stale mass market coffee (Fresh coffee goes stale 3 to 5 days after being roasted...period, the first person to truly discover a preservation technique will be my idol for life). That said, last thing I want is to pay good money for a Blue Mountain or rare Yemeni coffee to have it taste more like filter and plant fiber. If you like to taste your coffee and not the filter material...well as of this time, I think any senseo adaptors fall short, either with flavor contamination or lack of crema layer, which is the sole reason to use this machine instead of something like the Aeropress or even K-cups. | 0negative

GREAT WAY TO TAKE A REALLY HEALTHY DRINK ON THE ROAD
If you are looking for taste, nutrition, and low carbs/calories, this beverage is for you. Add to that low sodium in this particular variation and you have a drink we should all be drinking. I was always a bit reluctant to indulge in this yummy veg-fest because of the huge amount of added sodium, but now the low-sodium product has become much more available and costs only 30% more than the original high-sodium version. Typically, this low-sodium, mixed 100% vegetable juice is the type of drink that sells for $2-4 at a juice bar per 8-ounce serving or about $8-$10 per quart from a health food store in bottles. WHY?There are more than 8 reasons WHY V8 is so special -- Tomatoes, Beets, Celery, Carrots, Lettuce, Parsley, Watercress and Spinach are the first eight. Low carbs/calories and no added sugar are the 9th and 10th reasons. Low sodium and the resulting favorable potassium/sodium ratio give this particular version an 11th reason to become a truly 5-star product. Also, the 17 mg. of naturally-occurring lycopene in an 8-ounce serving is more than the average amount that you would find in single-nutrient lycopene supplements which cost an average of 16 cents per pill and which are less bio-available than the naturally-occurring lycopene in the V8 juice. With all the naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants in "V8 100% Vegetable Juice", this is a really healthy dietetic treat as an in-between snack.If you are not allergic to the ingredients [e.g., tomato allergy], this is the most practical and convenient way to add a very healthy serving of mixed vegetables to your diet. This variety in a small can is a little pricey, but it is very convenient and your body will thank you.TASTING THE CAN????Some people mentioned that they tasted the can. I always pour the contents out of the can when I first open it, unless I am going to finish it in one gulp. The aluminium in the container does leach into the acidic vegetable drink due to oxidation once it is opened, so remove it or drink it ASAP. The bottles all have an expiration date stamped on them, but since I do not have the cans on hand I can't say for sure whether they do as well. | 1positive

Good but not quite starbucks
I bought this item based on the good reviews it got and for the price. I think this is a product that is more useful in baking than a hot tea - it seems to require a lot of careful mixing that is too much hassle for a quick cuppa. It was green and not brown like one of the reviews here stated. I just bought an ice cream maker and am planning to use it for that or just to add to my morning smoothie for a boost. I recently got a bag of the Starbucks version that is mixed with sugar and it blends very easily with hot water. They don't sell it in their stores in powder form like you can buy coffee, but I know enough people in the Starbucks biz to get it on a regular basis. I think I will stick with that version for a hot tea, but I think this 1lb bag is good value for my baking purposes. Hopefully the ice cream will be as good as I want it to be! | 1positive

Not what I expected
I was specifically looking for a gluten-free, high protein bar that didn't taste like dessert or have chocolate in it that could melt. These seemed simple and are advertised as chunky peanut butter. Nowhere in the description, title or picture on the package did it mention chocolate. I now have a box of protein bars that I cant' take hiking with me, because they melt.I'd rather find a simple gluten-free, high-protein bar that I could eat in the morning without the chocolate. Seems impossible to find. I was very disappointed. | 0negative

Cardboard much?
While they did not trigger my IBS, this product is VERY dense and kinda tasteless. Not a satisfying substitute for chocolate. | 0negative

The taste is a bit off
I have a very nice collection of balsamic vinegars from very cheap ones to an incredibly pricey one ($150 for a small bottle) given to me by my sisters who visited Italy.Frankly, this is one I'll probably just toss out. The really cheap ones have a better tartness, and of the ones in this price range, this is my least favorite. Actually tastes a little chemically.Ugh! | 0negative

great for babies with milk protein allergy
We switched our baby boy from the regular similac to this after we saw bloody stool. It is more expensive than other types of formula, but the blood cleared within two weeks like the pedi said, so it was well worth it. Our son also had reflux but this formula did not seem to help any. FYI for anyone wondering if this is cheaper than the powder- yes, it is. However, if your baby eats 32oz a day, you're basically saving $0.80 (yes, cents!) a day using powder($162.79 for six 1lb cans) vs Ready to Feed ($53.94 for six 32oz bottles). IMO I'd rather pay the $0.80 and not have to mix the stuff myself. | 1positive

Honey Almond Granola
I will start off saying that my wife loves this stuff but I hate it! It is nothing more than dry oats and almond slivers in a bag. I am a huge fan of granola but not this stuff. The Bob's Red Mill Apple Blueberry is where its at. That is the best stuff I have every had. Granola wise that is. | 0negative

Did not like
Very bright, astringent, unwelcome taste. Almost bright red in color. Would not buy again.Hope they serve other blends at Betty's tea room | 0negative

Great tasting iced tea
I stopped drinking coffee and this product has helped me switch. It has been 18 months and the mandarin mango green tea to go packets are what I keep reaching for to hyrdate and stay caffeinated. | 1positive

Who said tasteless?
I like this soup. One of the problems with low fat or healthy is it frequently means an inferior or different taste to the regular, not so healthy stuff. This soup doesn't suffer that particular problem. If you like classic to eat, this is a nice substitute. | 1positive

It arrived in good shape. I like unusual hard to find plants. I will buy from this seller again. | 1positive

One nasty cup of Joe.....it even smells bad
I was looking forward to a nice bold cup of coffee and for the extra price I thought it might be good. It was nasty and I could not even drink it. | 0negative

A Poor Cow's Imitation
My family and friends and I have begun a boycott of Amazon.com's grocery service (beginning directly after the writing of this comment) for their blatant disregard for the milk connoisseurs of the world.Where is the Organic Cow of Vermont? The world's best milk has been completely ignored by this service, replaced with this so called "whole" milk that is most certainly lacking in "whole"-ness. Real, honest to goodness milk, when "whole"-ly experienced, should be four dimensional, should react on the senses in a way no other substance can. Only the Organic Cow of Vermont provides this experience, and until it is added to this catalogue, I will continue to make the trek to my neighbourhood grocery store.Take that, convenience. :P | 0negative

Great soup for 23 dollars but not for 41
I purchased this 6 pack of soup for about 23 bucks a few weeks ago and we really enjoy it...good flavor and like all Bear Creek soups it accepts additional ingredients/meats very well. Came to write my review today and saw that the price is now about $41 for the 6 packs...gimme a break!Will continue to be on the look out for when/if the price drops again....what is going on with these soups and the widely fluctuating prices...a good product but seriously... | 0negative

Quality of life, but not at any cost
I'm diabetic, and bought these because they were included when I did a search on "diabetic snacks". Looked good, taste like... well, let's just say that I'll just have to find a different way to enjoy. | 0negative

Tastes good!
These are yummy and the WHOLE cookie is covered, unlike other chocolate fortune cookies. All are individually wrapped. Not the best tasting chocolate ever, but yummy nonetheless. | 1positive

Coconut - Too darn fatty and greasy
I have found the coconut to be too greasy. Coconut naturally has a high fat content but this bar is too greasy. I'm going to try to keep 'em in the fridge but I doubt it will be that great. I'm going to try to give them away to my friends, so in the end I recommend not buying this flavor. | 0negative

Bland at best
I was really hoping for a popcorn as close to movie theater butter flavor as possible, we sprinkled it generously and it was still lacking. I agree w/another reviewer who said it was salty but not "Buttery". Took the words right out of my mouth.I love Kernel Season's other flavors (especially White Cheddar) but will not buy this again. | 0negative

My favorite coffee!
And I make it in my favorite coffee maker ... Senseo's. Of all the coffee they make, the Dark Roast is my favorite ... just like the coffee I got in Holland! The Decaf is alright for the evening after dinner and it's all that my husband can have. But the morning is the time for me to have the deep rich coffee of dark roast Senseo. It's the best! | 1positive

Salty and just enough heat
Others have mentioned that this is "hot but not too hot" and they are right. Perhaps not even as spicy as Sriracha the thing others have not mentioned is that this sauce (more of a paste, really) is wonderfully salty, which Sriracha definitely is not! | 1positive

I can substitute it for coffee and be fine.
I am a coffee addict. Yet the jitters can really detract from my work - both professionally and at home. This tea provides the kick to keep me going without the jitters.I love this stuff. | 1positive

Same stuff as Wilton
The "chocolate" looks and tastes just like Wilton stuff you buy at arts and crafts store. Nasty stuff, went straight in the trash. | 0negative

Cake mix
Barefoot Contessa makes a wonderful series of cake, cookie and brownie mixes that are out of this world. The cookbook is delectable, but to have the items ready to go is fantastic. You cannot go wrong with this! YUM | 1positive
