I don't know how Quaker and other US food processors can drain the flavor out of Oatmeal, yet McCann's can have so much flavor in theirs, with a firm, non-mushy texture, yet only be 130 calories per serving.The Fruit and Cream variety pack contains 4 peach (real peaches pieces - dehydrated of course) 2 blueberry, 2 strawberry and 2 banana.All the dehydrated fruit pieces plump up - and taste really good, with no chemical taste.This is my standard morning meal now for quite some time.

This is a very good product, and I was really surprised to see how low the cost was compared to retail (about $4.79 at Whole Foods).However, I noticed the sell-by date on the package is November 2006.So far, the product tastes okay, but I hope that Amazon is not selling some of these products at such shockingly low prices because they are about to become outdated.

Niki Jackfruit chips Review

Niki Jackfruit chips
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I found three brands of Jackfruit chips at a local Asian market, including these, which were less expensive at the brick & mortar store. This brand was best of the three and the only one made with Palm Oil (healthier) instead of vegetable oil (not good for you). This brand has the best crunch, and although none are close to the flavor of fresh Jackfruit, they are an easy treat.
PS Did you know the taste of Juicy Fruit gum was modeled after Jackfruit?

I just received my order of "organic dried Bananas" and they were half rotten when cut and then apparently just thrown in a ziploc and shipped. Not dried - someone must have assumed the "drying" process would just happen naturally in the bag over shipping? They are mushed together in one globby mess in the bag, rotten and have not had a proper drying process. Gross!

Yogi Green Tea Kombucha, Herbal Tea Supplement, 16-Count Tea Bags (Pack of 6) Review

Yogi Green Tea Kombucha, Herbal Tea Supplement, 16-Count Tea Bags
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
*****
This Organic Green Tea Kombucha from Yogi Tea is certainly unique. It tastes like a mixture of passion fruit, plum, ginger, and green tea. It is mild, and not bitter at all, even when you leave the tea bag in the whole time you drink the tea, as I do. Best of all, it is an easy, convenient way of benefiting from Kombucha, if you don't grow your own (and I don't anymore, as it is not easy or convenient for me). I have never before obtained my Kombucha from a tea; this is a tasty way to do so.

I am definitely impressed with this tea and with Yogi Teas in general. Organic Green Tea Kombucha comes with an expiration date (a good thing, because it's not full of preservatives, plus you can tell if it is fresh). Yogi Tea seems to be another company (like Numi, Aspen, Traditional Medicinals) that values sustainable and healthy practices. Their web site has a helpful glossary of tea ingredients and is beautifully designed, with info about each tea they make.

Yogi Tea writes this on the box about the tea's benefits: "Green Tea Kombucha is based on an ancient remedy and offers a convenient form of Kombucha designed for daily use. Legend has it that some 2,000 years ago, Kombucha originated in Russia, and from there it traveled to Japan. Since then it has been used to detoxify the body, enhance the immune system, fight fatigue and soothe an upset stomach. This special healing formula is made withOrganic Green Tea (Camellia sinensis), which is organically grown and, unlike other green teas, has a delicate flavor with no bitterness. Green Tea has excellent antioxidant properties. To it we have added a concentrated purified extract of Kombucha-Pure(tm), which is produced without the use of refined sugar or black tea, and is made from Kombucha grown in a unique medium of 32 supporting Chinese herbs. The recipe is complemented with Organic Spearmint, which can help to relax the body and aid digestion; Organic Licorice Root, to support the adrenals and enhance the effects of other healing herbs; and Dong Quai Root, a well-known tonic. Once the benefits of these ingredients are released by hot water, you are ready to enjoy a delicious, delightful and soothing cup of tea - and one that is naturally rich in antioxidants and other health-supporting qualities."

Yogi Tea's use of "Kombucha-Pure", grown in 32 Chinese herbs and WITHOUT black tea or sugar is very, very appealing, and a new and exciting way of producing Kombucha.

Note that Yogi Tea also makes a decaf version of this tea that has exactly the same ingredients except that the organic green tea is decaffeinated---naturally, of course!

Highly recommended.

Once the steeping process has released the benefits of these ingredients, you are ready to enjoy a delicious, delightful and soothing cup of tea — one that is naturally rich in antioxidants and other health boosters.

Nature's Path Organic Corn Flakes Cereal, 26.4-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6) Review

Nature's Path Organic Corn Flakes Cereal, 26.4-Ounce Bags
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been buying Nature's Path gluten free foods for a number of years, and have been fully satisfied.I've had access to somewhat lower prices than what traditional grocery stores put on their products, but am delighted that Amazon's price is virtually identical to the prices offered by the discount organic foods market we've purchased these from in the past.I doubt you'll find Nature's Path products any lower anywhere else, particularly when you consider no sales tax and free shipping if the order is large enough.Also, I contacted Nature's Path once with a question about one of their products (the Mesa Sunrise flakes).Customer service is excellent and very friendly (much nicer than we typically get "down here" in the States - they're a Canadian company up in B.C.).If this sounds like a commercial, it's not intended to be - I just have been entirely satisfied with Nature's Path foods for years and have no complaints at all.When a company does a good job, they deserve referrals - everybody wins.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered this chocolate syrup to share with a neighbor, we order a ton of stuff off Amazon. For some reason my order did not ship for 7 days and I am on the Prime 2 day shipping. I called to find out what the deal was and was told they could not ship the product as it was close to expiration, it would ship when the fresh syrup came in a few days from the Vendor. I am very happy that Amazon is getting better at not shipping grocery items that are about to expire. I previously received 9 bags of organic corn chips that were close to expiration and after complaining they promptly refunded my money. I would rather waitthan to receive bulk groceries you can not possibly use before the expiration date as that defeats the purpose of bulk buying. Amazon is a top notch online way to shop for low sodium and organic foods for those of us living in rural areas. I am pretty impressed and I order here constantly. I will review the product for taste as soon as I get the shipment, but I will say all the Santa Cruz products I have tried so far have been excellent quality.

Once you've had this cranberry sauce, we can't imagine you'd ever want to go back to the usual kind. Much lower in sugar, no added ingredients, and the flavor surpasses the typical super market brand. Even better...it's organic! And don't doctors say there's an added benefit of staving off urinary tract infections with 100% natural cranberries?

Savor the difference.

Navitas Naturals Certified Organic Goji Berries, Himalayan Superfruit, Goji Power 8-Ounce Pouch (Pack of 2) Review

Navitas Naturals Certified Organic Goji Berries, Himalayan Superfruit, Goji Power 8-Ounce Pouch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These berries are thought to be one of the one of the healthiest natural foods. There are many "stories" about the amazing benefits of these berries, many of which may be true, but a few verifiable facts about them (in dried form) follow:
1) High protein (about 12%), and are a complete protein. This is good for anybody, but particularly noteworthy to vegans, who choose not to get their protein from meats.
2) Decent fiber content (about 10%)
3) 18 (!!) amino acids
4) Like most sweet fruits, high in carbs and calories. 100 grams give you about 350-380 calories; roughly 3/4 from carbs and 1/4 from fat.
5) 6 vitamins, 8 amino acids, 11+ minerals (more in trace amounts)
6) Carotenoids, unsaturated fatty acids (this is a good thing), phytosterols (help lower cholesterol), and other healthy (or theoretically healthy but not particularly well researched) phytochemicals.

Enough with the technical jargon. These berries are great in cereal, smoothies (once hydrated), and tea. For tea, try this:
Put water, a small number of berries (6-15ish) and a teabag in your cup, microwave for about a minute per teacup (time varies), drop a small amount in your favorite tea along with the teabag and let the berries and tea steep for about 3 minutes.
This adds a subtle character to green tea (plus an unusual, tasty snack to do with a few of the sips). The flavor seems to blend well with chai and jasmine too. This may work differently for those who use creamer.

Of note:
- If you let them soak for too long (more than about 5-10 minutes) they get mushy and lose their texture and flavor.
- If you do not soak them long enough, they can feel a little bit gritty. I think this is due to the seeds. I don't mind it myself, but some might.

I recommend that you try a bag, keeping in mind that you may need to soak the berries in water/tea/whatever in order to make them soft, and see what you think. I have found they make a great addition to my usual cereal-only breakfast because they give me a much-needed protein boost.
If you like them quite a lot, you may want to take the time to look for a supply in a nearby Asian foods store. I have heard they can be purchased at a lower cost in bulk.

The reviewer that reported these are "gross" may have received something from a bad batch. I think they have a nice cranberry/raisin-ish flavor and have almost no noticeable odor (and the odor isn't an unpleasant one to me).
