Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre intended mango and peach applesauce is a delicious unsweetened applesauce that my 14-month-old loves! I add a bit of wheat germ to it so it sticks to the spoon a bit better for self-feeding. When I tasted it myself, I could tell that apples were the first ingredient - I would have liked the peach puree to be more prominent because it's so good (it is the 5th ingredient). The other constructive comment I have is that I expected something with + fibre prominently featured on the packaging to have more than 2g of fibre. That said, still a delicious unsweetened snack so healthier than many other options available.

I was so pleased to be selected to try this product for free with Chick Advisor's Product Review Club. For background, I have a lot of thick fairly straight hair that becomes oily quickly so I need a shampoo and conditioner system that can handle everyday use. This worked well! In comparison with using the shampoo alone, I found the shampoo+conditioner left my hair softer and smoother. I really appreciated that the directions said to avoid the roots
(so few do say that!). What most impressed me with this conditioner is that found that it rinsed out faster than most conditioners, which is both a time saver and better for water consumption. I regularly use tea tree oil products on my skin (for oiliness/blemishes without overdrying) so I am accustomed to, and enjoy, the scent. I do find it very refreshing! The scent can take some getting used to for those that aren't used to it. Overall, I would recommend this and I would strongly consider purchasing again, particularly given the quicker rinse time.

I was so pleased to be selected to try this product for free with Chick Advisor's Product Review Club. For background, I have a lot of thick fairly straight hair that becomes oily quickly so I need a shampoo that can handle everyday use. I found that this did work well for regular use without overdrying and it did leave my hair looking more revitalized, refreshed and healthier. I tried the shampoo on its own (no conditioner) and I was still able to brush my hair easily after the shower, so that's a bonus! I regularly use tea tree oil products on my skin (for oiliness/blemishes without overdrying) so I am accustomed to, and enjoy, the scent. I do find it very refreshing! The scent can take some getting used to for those that aren't used to it. Overall, I would recommend this product and would consider purchasing in the future. -

I was so pleased to be selected to try this product for free with Chick Advisor's Product Review Club. I regularly use tea tree oil products on my skin (for oiliness/blemishes without overdrying) so I am accustomed to, and enjoy, the scent. I do find it very refreshing! The scent can take some getting used to for those that aren't used to it. Overall I found that this body wash worked very well for me. I wasn't experiencing any breakouts during this trial period however I wonder if this body wash would also be effective for reducing acne breakouts due to the inclusion of tea tree oil. The only very minor annoyance I found with this product was the packaging: sometimes I found that the bottle sucked back up the body wash so I essentially got into the habit of wiping it onto my hand so it stayed out. Very minor though! Overall, I would recommend this product and would strongly consider purchasing again. -

Slightly sweetened with maple and 6g fibre per serving, this cereal makes me feel like I'm having a breakfast without compromising taste. Although this does taste delicious in a bowl with milk, I've found that it's also a great snack that you can eat by the handful! -

Sometimes I crave a salty, crunchy snack but I try to eat relatively healthy. Do you too? These Breton Sprouted Grains Sea Salt crackers are an available alternative for these cravings. I find them very tasty, crunchier than the usual Breton crackers (more similar to Christie's Wheat Thins) and the sea salt topping is quite prominent. The nutrition facts are negligible with 2g protein, 1g fibre, 3.5g fat and 90 calories per serving. The box is 145g (serving is 4 crackers for 18g) so it is a bit more expensive in value than other crackers but worthwhile purchasing on sale. -

As we are exclusively breastfeeding our baby, we were recommended to give him vitamin D drops to supplement. We didn't realize when originally purchasing the vitamin D drops that there are several options that are one drop only that could be placed directly on the breast, for example. These Life Brand Vitamin D drops are 1mL serving through a dropper and are cherry flavoured. After trying these, we will be buying again and aren't tempted to switch to the one drop kind. Our baby LOVES these drops - to the point that they help him calm down when he's upset. We call it his candy! The downside with this format is that it's harder to be as precise with the dosage with the dropper but it's worth it for us given how much the baby loves it. -

If I have a sour candy craving, sour Skittles is one of my go to candies! The coating is one of the most sour of all the candies - to the point that I can only have a few before I can feel it in my tongue so I don't eat as many at once as other candies. This is a good thing! The sweet and fruity candy centre provides the tongue with a break from the sour outside. Delicious! -

I've had my Sodastream for over a year and I use it daily! I am not a big fan of plain water but since I purchased the Sodastream, I am drinking much more water. I like that I can adjust the amount of carbonation I want and it saves money. It is also a healthier option than purchasing sodas! I would certainly recommend. -

This is a staple in our family. It's family tradition to have hashbrown casserole on Christmas Eve - and the hashbrown casserole is so good, we now have it much more often and I brought it to a work pot luck yesterday. These McCain hashbrowns really are the best frozen hashbrowns that we have tried for this recipe. In many cases I make items homemade instead of purchasing them, but the time to be able to do hashbrowns, the price is worth it (I usually get the 2lb bag for 1,49$-1,66$). -
