Chameleon Special Edition! Girl Scouts Thin Mints Handcrafted Cold-Brew Social Nature Review
5/5 stars
"I tried the Chameleon Special Edition! Girl Scouts Thin Mints Handcrafted Cold-Brew at Whole Foods Market. It was easy to find in the coffee area. I was cautiously optimistic when trying this product. I honestly prefer it when any drink other than water is as close to zero calories as possible. I realize in the realm of coffee drinks, a low-calorie or zero-flavored drink is harder to come by. I do agree with the statement by the company that 90 calories per can is quite a bit lower in calories than many of the competitors. I will give them that one. I purchased the thin mints one because I don't really like coconut and I wasn't feeling peanut butter in coffee, at least not at the time of purchase. Mint and coffee go well together anyway. I thought that the flavor of the coffee was spot on. I could really taste the thin mint cookie and coffee flavors. I was into it. I would consider purchasing this drink again, especially if it was on sale. I would also recommend this drink to family."

MOSH Peanut Butter Crunch Keto Protein Bars, High Protein, Gluten Free, Brain Healthy Snack with Ashwagandha and Lions Mane, 12 Count Amazon Review
5/5 stars
I purchased MOSH Peanut Butter Crunch Keto Protein Bars, High Protein, Gluten Free, Brain Healthy Snack with Ashwagandha and Lions Mane, 12 Count and it came right away. I love protein bars. Protein bars are so convenient. They are a well-balanced way to quickly eat a snack when either you don't have time to make a meal, or just don't want to go make one, go order one, etc. That being said, there is a wide array of nutritional information on the protein bars out there. There are also a wide amount of choices of flavors, sizes, ingredients, etc. in the protein bar market. I am attracted to the fact that this was a shark tank product. It allows the customer a little more insight into the company that's readily available in video on the product itself. However, I was a little disappointed in the inclusion of sugar alcohols in the ingredient list. Sugar alcohols cause my digestive system so much disruption sometimes that it's almost intolerable. I ended up purchasing this product anyway because it only lists 3g of sugar alcohol a bar, so I figured I'd look past it. I ended up enjoying the taste of the bar, I could really taste the peanut butter, and the bar did end up keeping hunger at bay after consumption. These bars don't have to be refrigerated, but I did anyway because I like them a little chilled. The cold helps bring out the flavor sometimes. I think that these bars definitely compete with their size, flavors, and nutritionally with the current bars commonly found in stores. Cost wise they are on par with some of the higher end products but not so high in price that it can't be justified. There is a good chance I'm probably buying more to try some different flavors. I would also recommend this product to family. amazon listing

Nestle Boost Glucose Control Creamy Strawberry

Nestle Boost Glucose Control Creamy Strawberry Influenster Review
5/5 stars
I was sent Nestle Boost Glucose Control Creamy Strawberry and it came right away. Boost is a product that has been around for many decades. As a person who has had some chronic health issues that have warranted needing adding Boost for nutrition, it's an extremely consistent and effective product. The creamy strawberry flavor was much sweeter and better than expected. Since these bottles were glucose control, I wasn't expecting much sweetness to the flavor. I was wrong, though, the creamy strawberry was very sweet and had no sweetener aftertaste. I love the fact that they have a glucose control option now. It makes the protein count higher and the carb count lower which is fantastic. I would gladly purchase this product again and recommend it to my family.

MycoMax Mushroom Complex - 70% Beta Glucans, Max Potency Mushroom Supplement, US Grown + Ultrasonic Extraction - Lions Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi & More - Cognition, Immunity, Energy - 60 capsules Amazon Review
5/5 stars
I purchased MycoMax Mushroom Complex - 70% Beta Glucans, Max Potency Mushroom Supplement, US Grown + Ultrasonic Extraction - Lions Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi & More - Cognition, Immunity, Energy - 60 capsules and it came right away. For me, there's always a level of unknown with a product like this since these kinds of supplements aren't regulated by the FDA. That being said, I was looking at this product for help with cognitive function and stomach issues. I like that it's at least USDA organic and claims to be the number one supplement like this. It does have other quality standards like it is made in the USA and is GMO-free. There seems to be a good mix of ingredients, lots of items on the nutritional breakdown. This is a company that makes other supplements and has an Amazon Choice banner, so there should be a level of security in the fact the company seems stable and reputable. I have purchased a few of their other supplements like iron and don't have any complaints. The supplement seems to work well for the short term, only time will tell for the long term. In my head, there's a quality control concern for a product like this but it claims to be third-party tested. This product also has a shelf life of a couple of years as per the expiration on the box I received. amazon listing

Diana's Organic Real Banana Bites dipped in dark chocolate Social Nature Review
5/5 stars
"I tried the Diana's Organic Dark Chocolate Banana Bites. The organic dark chocolate banana bites were the same price as the regular dark chocolate banana bites at Whole Foods Market, so I figured organic it is. They were very easy to find in the frozen foods case. These banana bites were heavenly. I loved the frozen banana, it had a nice flavor to it. The size of the bites was perfect, not to small and not too large. I like that the ingredients are very simple and natural, no obvious added chemicals. I personally have an issue with keeping sweet items around the house, so I ate the entire box in one sitting. The entire box is only 600ish calories, which is the same amount as a king-sized candy bar. However, these banana bites have got to be a better choice than a king-sized candy bar. The banana bites have 2 grams of fiber in them per serving. I did feel the effects of the banana in the bites, the fiber effect. If you can actually control yourself with an item containing chocolate, you might be able to get away with only eating a serving (3 bites) at a time. The banana bites come in a resealable pouch which, once again, if I could control myself around chocolate, would be very useful. I would recommend this product, and I would consider purchasing them again."

Irish Spring Original Clean Bar Soap

Irish Spring Original Clean Bar Soap Home Tester Club Review
5/5 stars
Irish Spring bar soap has been around for many decades. It's not the soap I buy regularly, but I have found it occasionally in other places. It's always been a very consistent product. I thought the company might have done a reformulation or different scents, but no, it's the same product I remember. I have soft water with a lower flow shower head, so the bar soap takes a little bit longer to rinse off. If it doesn't rinse off completely it leaves a light film on the body. This soap also doesn't moisturize the skin like some soaps do. However, there are many many bar soaps out there that are similar with not rinsing well and leaving a film. The soap box also only claims that it will clean not moisturize, so neither critique can be counted against it. The scent is strong and woodsy. It lasts a while, which is nice if you like scents. I would recommend this product and consider buying it again.

Pop & Bottle, Caramel Cold Brew Oat Milk Latte Social Nature Review
5/5 stars
"I enjoyed the Pop & Bottle, Caramel Cold Brew Oat Milk Latte quite a bit. Usually, I go for zero or very low-calorie products, so I was skeptical about this cold brew since it does have 120 calories a can. However, I was optimistic that 120 calories is still low for a drink that has sugary type products in it compared to other beverages. I liked the fact that this product is dairy-free, and I also liked that the sugars in this product are natural from dates which honestly helps for someone who is trying not to spike their blood sugar too badly. The taste is nice. I could taste the caramel, the coffee, and the oat milk and it blended well together. The label also mentions functional mushrooms but happily, I didn't taste those at all. I am not sure what clean caffeine is as opposed to other types of caffeine. I didn't feel jittery or shaky at all after drinking this product, but I did feel as though I drank something with caffeine, which is good since that's the desired effect. I would purchase this product again as long as it's in the same price range as the other coffee drinks. I would also recommend this product. I didn't have any issue finding this product at target, it was right on the shelf with the other unrefrigerated coffee drinks."

I purchased Triquetra Plant Iron, whole food iron supplement plus essential cofactors and it came right away. I like that this product is at least 95% organic and non-GMO. I used to buy another brand of iron, and this product works as well as the other brand I used to purchase. I have yet to see the long-term effects of this product. amazon listing
