First sip I literally said "oh my god!" and not in a good way. I was overpowered by the taste. I've never had tea with this kinda taste. It taste like corn syrup mixed with water and some honey.. I regret buying it. I will never buy again. On the bright side I can reuse the container it came in.

Product description: Elbow macaroni tossed in a creamy cheese sauce with smoky applewood bacon, mushrooms, roasted onions, topped with blue cheese crumbles. More info here My review: well it is easy to cook. Just follow the directions on the box. It was creamy but for me it was kinda just.. alright/ok.. It didn't make me want seconds. It's not that it tasted bad or weird it just felt kinda bland.. I really couldn't see the bacon in it let alone taste it. The mushrooms well I wouldn't have known they where there if I hadn't read the box. (I might have seen one mushroom.) The pasta itself was perfect! not dried out, not mushy, or hard so I was most pleased with the pasta.
Would I buy again? No description: Mocha frozen dairy dessert swirled with chewy cookie dough and crunchy chocolate cookie swirl. more info here My review:
I would like to start of by saying this purchase was a mistake. I sent someone to the store with a list of things I needed. well this item was almost correct.. Except for the mocha part.. I don't even drink coffee of any kind.. so why would I want ice cream that is mocha flavored? Well anyway it was to late to have them go back and exchange it for something else cause the vehicle had done left.. So I decided to go ahead and try it. I could smell the mocha soon as I took the lid off.. It wasn't as strong as I was afraid it was going to be..so I got me a spoon a bowl dipped some out and tried it. Oddly enough the mocha flavor was subtle enough I could ignore it. I could taste the cookie dough bites somewhat..The most powerful flavor would be the chocolate swirl which for me was wonderful! It helps tone down that mocha flavor. Product info from bluebunny: Strawberry ice cream made with ripe strawberries and strawberry sauce. My review:
The ice cream is soft and creamy. The strawberry syrup is #YUMMY!! I did not notice any artificial taste. There was only one downside the strawberries are crystallized making them crisp and VERY cold. I got 2 free #CarnationBreakfastEssentials Grab & Go Protein Smoothies from @bzzagent for reviewing purposes.I got mixed berry flavor and a banana and strawberry flavored drink.These drinks can be found at @kroger in there cereal section. Strawberry banana review: First of its not just strawberry and bananas.ingredient list stats apple and carrot are involved.it doesn't seem like much is one pouch..I think the apples are for natural sweetness cause package says no artificial sweeteners. I taste apple and banana flavors..Im not getting any strawberry flavor.. Mixed berry review: First of its not just berries.ingredient list stats apple and carrot are involved.it doesn't seem like much is one pouch..I think the apples are for natural sweetness cause package says no artificial sweeteners. I can taste the blueberries but pretty much all ime tasting is blueberry and apple juice.. Pros I can taste the blueberries.great on the go packaging.easy to open and close. gluten-free and it has 1 serving of fruit. cons it says mixed berry but its more like apples,carrots and berries.. doesn't seem like much is in the pouch.Got to work the smoothie up to the top to be able to get as much as you can of it. My final thoughts on both: The drinks are naturally sweetened.They are not overly sweet to me they taste like apple juice.Theres not much difference in the ingredients in the drinks I received..The only difference I seen one was one has banana and the other has blueberry..other than that there the same drink..This is just my thoughts.. I got this product free from smiley360 for reviewing purposes.This product has all kinds of gummy shapes..like sunglasses,ducks,pigs,tennis racket,alarm clocks and other shapes..One unique thing about this product is you never know what shapes are in your bag!No 2 bags are the same!Flavors you could get are lemon,strawberry,cherry grape and orange.some gummies even have filling!Such as lemon filling,strawberry filling,ect..This was my first experience with gummy candy containing filling.All the different shapes makes it fun for kids(and adults I liked pulling them out of bag just to see what I would pull out next)
Product is made with no artificial flavors and it has real fruit juice! My final verdict:Its's a fun little snack for the whole family! My review of smiley360 is here My unboxing video for this item is here I got into the arla dofino bzz campaign from bzzagent.I picked the Gouda cheese up from my local store it was priced at $5.99.I gave the checkout lady my coupon for free arla dofino cheese up to$ 6.99 value.I had to pay some tax but not a bad deal.
I did not take pictures of anything.. The Gouda cheese had kinda a buttery taste.It had this red wax like covering that you take off before using the cheese.I made a grilled cheese and the Gouda melted very nicely and the taste was YUMMY!The melted Gouda between 2 pieces of toasted bread tasted like creamy,buttery comfort food. I would recommend this product. The only thing I disliked was the price of the cheese at my local store. If I find it cheaper somewhere else I might buy it again. Arla dofino Gouda cheese website page is here My arla dofino from bzzagent unboxing video is here My thoughts on the yogurt by itself:
I tried it by itself first and I noticed the texture was odd.The yogurt in container has a slight watery consistency...The taste was well plain(no sweetness,no nothing maybe this is cause of the wateriness of the product?) but hey I got plain so I could make a strawberry parfait and what ever else I end up making with it.So maybe the flavored ones have a more interesting taste.So as far as the taste by itself Im just glad it tasted Nothing like Dannon Oikos Greek Nonfat yogurt.The taste and texture of it I guess you could say is like sour cream. (Been more than 4 years since ive had sour cream but from what im remembering the taste and texture is similar) Now using it in my parfait: Well it was still bland I used the following in my parfait Frozen whole strawberries(which I thawed and diced up) a pinch of sugar(maybe honey would have been better) Quaker granola oats,honey and almonds And of course the chobani non-fat plain yogurt Maybe this particular chobani flavor would work better in a dip. Overall: This flavor was kinda flop for me.I also didn't like the slightly watery consistency.This isn't a flavor I would purchase again.It's just to bland for me.It might work better in savory dishes but it's not worth my time trying to make this item work in a dish.Im disappointed with the taste and wateriness of this product. I got this item for free thanks to a bzzagent campaign.To learn more about this please click here to read my bog post about this campaign. Item description:A mouth-watering combination of Peach, Apricot, Apple, and Nothing Else! ® This blend of fruit is great for lunch or as a snack on the go. At only 70 calories what's not to love? My thoughts:Bland by itself.Yes it tasted like fruits it was supposed to taste like.I just found it boring/dull.I think these would have to be used in some sort of food/drink or something..To make them pop you know what I mean?Its like something is missing..
Pros: Its a healthy snack no added sugar,tastes like its supposed to.Nice sized pieces of fruit. Cons: Bland/dull in taste. Maybe if I would have ate it in something like yogurt it would be more to my liking..It's just to bland for me by itself. I got this item in my april 2014 tasting box from love with food more on this here Video about the box I got this item in is here Item description: Fiordifrutta fruit spreads are 100% organic. Each is made exclusively from pounds of selected organic fruit using a patented low-temperature cooking process. Unlike most other spreads on the market, Fiordifrutta fruit contains no added sugar. Sweetening is made instead with organic wild apple juice. This exclusive recipe preserves the nutrients of the natural fruit while significantly reducing the sugar substance content (30% or more compared to other spreads) and contains 30% fewer calories than most others. Feel free to pair this spread on a cracker with your favorite cheese, mixed into your favorite yogurt, as a spread on morning toast, or as an ingredient in a recipe. My thoughts:
Im used to thicker spreads so this was different.It was kinda watery like..also it wasn't very sweet tasting to me.I tried it on some bread and a tried it straight out of the packet.I think this might work better in a recipe or and in a smoothie..it was to bland for me on just bread.Also the strawberry/wild strawberry taste didn't come through very much..I got a a very small amount of the flavor without having to search for it... Overall: I like it slightly more than the wild blueberry organic spread.The flavors weren't as bland but again I really didn't get much of a sweet taste.
