I got some samples to try for free from Thin Slim Foods! This company makes desserts, breads, bagels and more that are lower in calories and carbs than traditional fare. I was lucky enough to get a loaf of the Honey and Plain bread, as well as 2 of the brownies to try. I was definitely intrigued by these foods. […]

The 4 flavors I got in the mail were Barbeque, Sour Cream and Onion, Original, and Cheddar. These chips are NOT baked and NOT fried…they are popped! This allows them to […]

Del Monte Vanilla & Spice Diced Pears
I have a pet peeve when it comes to fruit cups…why, oh WHY must EVERY SINGLE TIME I open one, it has to explode?! In class–> explodes on the table. At home–> explodes on my desk. On the subway–> probably would explode everywhere (let’s not try that one). And then there is a good tablespoon of the juice/syrup wherever the […]

Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Chex cereal
I admit…I’ve been in a Special K rut for years. Now I hardly have cereal for breakfast, but every now and then (especially high cardio mornings) I like to have a bowl with some milk for some carbs and protein to keep me going. Well…since I’m trying to refrain from wheat, I skipped the Special K and went for the […]

PB Crave Razzle Dazzle, Cookie Nookie, Choco Choco and Coco Bananas Peanut Butter
RE-review! I reviewed one of the PB Crave flavors recently, and thought it was okay. Little did I know that the peanut butters over at PB Crave were remade and I had a batch that was prior to the remake! Luckily, the nice people over at PB Crave offered to let me try their products for free, and being the […]

Larabar Uber Sweet and Salty Fruit and Nut Bars
I love when I get new products to try, and when new surprises await me in the mailbox or outside my door. To my surprise, I found a little bag from Larabar with some of their new bars, Uber bars, which are sweet and salty fruit and nut bars. I LOVE fruit and nut bars. Satisfying, sweet, crunchy, and just […]

Truwhip the Natural Whipped Topping
Um………confession time. I am a Cool-Whip addict. But seriously. I KNOW, it’s full of not-so-good for you ingredients, I think I’ve even seen the really evil ones like HFCS or trans fats, and I KNOW it practically has no nutritional value and I KNOW why don’t I just eat natural whipped cream? Well, I can’t explain it. Something about cool-whip. […]

Annie Chun’s Mini Wontons Chicken and Garlic
Something new for me to try! Browsing the aisle at Whole Foods, I wanted to try something out of the ordinary (or at least so for me) to have as a snack or as part of a meal. I decided to pick up these and give them a try. The ingredients and nutritional information seemed pretty good and up to […]

Kellogg’s Chocolate Krave cereal
Cereal is a staple for me. Every day, every morning, a bowl of the stuff with some almond milk, and usually a sliced banana. It’s delicious, and light enough to let me go to the gym after without weighing me down or feeling sick. So, needing a change from my usual (love you, Cinnamon Pecan Special K <3) I wanted […]

Dunkin’ Donuts Turkey Sausage Flatbread Sandwich
I ordered something so out of my element. Turkey. Sausage. Normally if I eat out, I’ll get the vegetarian option of a sandwich, but this time I wanted to try something different. (WHO am I? And what have I done with myself?) So, alongside a medium coffee (caffeine addict right here), I ordered a Turkey Sausage Flatbread Sandwich from Dunkin’ […]
