I got a sample of one squeez. I cannot, cannot believe the amount of waste, the sheer amount of non-recyclable packaging of which this is derived.
My children are becoming increasingly aware of sustainability and (the lack of) recycling systems capable of dealing with these types of products.
Do the decent thing and try to help the planet, not destroy it with gimmicky helicoptors.

Live Clean Daily Moisturizing Shea and Coconut Body Lotion
I only buy this if it on sale because it is pretty pricey, but it is great. I love it for summer because it isn't greasy and when you sweat it doesn't add extra gross. The scent, whatever, it's nice and not overwhelming. I usually use fragrance-free... +
I only buy this if it on sale because it is pretty pricey, but it is great. I love it for summer because it isn't greasy and when you sweat it doesn't add extra gross.
The scent, whatever, it's nice and not overwhelming. I usually use fragrance-free but this is okay.
Further, since the first ingredient (as in all lotions) is water, I pump a couple blobs into my hand then stick my fingers under the tap quickly and smoosh it all together to last longer and be smoother to apply.

Lightlife plant based burgers

I discovered this brand when I was at the store looking for burgers (vegetarian ones) and decided to try it. This brand has great tasting food, and the burgers seem more "beefy" compared to other vegetarian brands.
However. The low stars review here is mainly for the insane amount of packaging. You only get 2 burgers. For trying to be better to animals and the environment etc, the egregious amount of plastic and cardboard, especially compared to others in this category, makes me hesitant to repurchase.

Mott's Clamato Reserve
This was a nice change to the usual beer/wine we have. It felt nice to make a dirnk at home rather than paying an arm and a leg during covid. It tasted pretty much on-spot; I still added a rim though to the glass.

I bought this recently for a change, I tried a honey-oat type one that had scrub in it (oat pieces). It smells great and cleaned like any other soap. I like that it is chemical/additive free and scented only with the natural ingredients it contains. A bit pricy at almost $5/bar but worth it for an indulgence. I don't use it every day because of the price. -
Schmidt's Here + Now Natural Deodorant
Seriously smelled disgusting to the point that my girlfriend made me wash it off. And made in conjunction with Justin Beiber is terrible - I am an adult and don't want to smell like a teenage weirdo. There is NO WAY that kid could be using this... +
Seriously smelled disgusting to the point that my girlfriend made me wash it off. And made in conjunction with Justin Beiber is terrible - I am an adult and don't want to smell like a teenage weirdo. There is NO WAY that kid could be using this anyways as it is sticky and smelly and doesn't last more than half an hour IF I can stand wearing it that long. Sadly, although it was a good idea, it is not a good product. I am just going back to my very effective homemade one. -
Babyganics Foaming Dish & Bottle Soap

I do not like how the useful cleaning ingredients are below the foaming ingredient (second ingredient, cocamidroproyl hydroxysultaine).
Foaming is less of a concern than sanitization, which is third on the list (lauramine oxide).
I'll just be sticking to my regular sunlight soap that I've been using since I was born.

Babyganics All Purpose Surface Wipes, Fragrance Free

I liked this product as it was sensitive and didn't smell like chemicals, however there is no indication of what level of sanitization this provides. On other products like Lysol and Clorox wipes, they say right on the front that it eliminates 99.9% of bacteria and germs.
This may be derived from Malic acid (apple acid, "tartness") and decyl glucoside (from sugar), however the potassium sorbate is a known irritant, and all of these ingredients were manufactured, not actually derived from their native botanical sources. Sodium benzoate does not, in fact, synthesize naturally in any organic body.
This is, in essence, a mix of surfactants, salts and acids, mainly from fruit and sugar. I do not think it is throughly sanitizing.

Babyganics Bubble Bath - Fragrance Free

To be honest I do not know if my baby likes scented or non-scented products, however I have been buying sensitive/fragrance free ones when I can, as they are often more expensive. This bubble bath turns out to be one of my favourites. I did not notice any adverse affects like rashes or redness at all.
I even used it and it felt great. Great bubbles as well with only a tbsp-ish worth of product.

Field Roast Sausages - Italian
I've tried these a couple times, cooking them in a couple different ways at first I thought I was cooking them incorrectly but I've come to realize these just do not stay intact once cooked. They fall right off the fork and I can't even pick one up... +
I've tried these a couple times, cooking them in a couple different ways at first I thought I was cooking them incorrectly but I've come to realize these just do not stay intact once cooked. They fall right off the fork and I can't even pick one up without it breaking into pieces.
The taste is good, but I think I'll stick to the tried and true Yves brand if I'm going to eat an American brand.
