scottandtracey says "Great tasting soup" about Muir Glen Organic Soup Hearty Tomato 19 Oz Cans (Pack Of 12)

scottandtracey — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 23:45:40 GMT

I purchased Muir Glen Organic Hearty Tomato Soup after a friend referred the product to me. I was so glad she did. This soup taste so fresh as if it was made fresh from the garden. It was thicker than your ordinary tomato soup (the condensed kind). This soup works great as a base for vegetable beef soup. I combined it with a can of beef broth, french onion soup works well too. It provides a great consistency to the soup. No too thick and not too watery. My son loves the soup too. We tried it with grilled cheese and he preferred this brand over campbells condensed tomato soup. This one was heartier-had a fresher tomato taste to it. The price was a lot higher than the condensed tomato soup. It cost around one dollar and fifty cents for each can. Although it is more expensive, I believe the quality of the product is well worth the additional money being spent. I would highly recommend this product.

scottandtracey says "Delicious and low-fat!" about The Skinny Cow Skinny Dippers

scottandtracey — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 23:23:30 GMT

I saw an ad in a magazine for the Skiny Cow, Skinny Dippers Ice Cream Bars. I have recently lost 5 pounds and have been watching what I eat. This limits what I can allow myself to have for dessert or a special treat. I tried these ice cream bars and they were so good. They come in two flavors in the same box...vanilla and mint. They are covered with a thin layer of chocolate on half of the ice cream bar. I couldn't even tell they were low-fat. They were very creamy, had no funny aftertaste-like other products i have tried. There are 12 in each box and these are the perfect size-just enough to satisfy my craving but not too big that it sabotages my healthy dieting plan. I highly recommend these to anyone searching for something that taste great and is not loaded with fat and calories. Each bar has 80 calories. I paid approximately three dollars for the box but I am sure it varies depending on where you purchase them.

scottandtracey says "A Must Have for your pantry" about Bisquick Original Pancake and Baking Mix

scottandtracey — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 18:23:03 GMT

Bisquick is a must have for everyone's pantry. This item has helped me many times come up with something different for dinner when I am looking for something homemade. I can trust that everything will come out perfectly. This product is so versatile-you can use it to make so many different items for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. Their website is great for recipes as the box is limited with just a few ideas. I have made several of the recipes like blueberry pancakes, oven baked chicken, streusel coffee cake ( it is so good!), and cheeseburger pie. Everything turned out excellent. I am a big fan of this product because I love homebaked goods. Everything taste so fresh. This product has a good shelf life too. The recipes are so easy to follow as well. I will always keep this item in stock. I paid approximately four dollars for the forty ounce package. It is worth every penny!

scottandtracey says "Great tasting water alternative" about Sobe - Life Water

scottandtracey — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 18:11:58 GMT

I just tried Sobe LifeWater and it was fantastic. I have been trying to get more water into my diet but always failed because I just don't like the taste. So I tried the Sobe LifeWater and ever since then It is the only kind of flavored water that I will buy. It comes in many varieties. It is a perfect blend of water and flavors-not too weak and not to sweet. I have tried other flavored waters before but most of them are just too weak in the flavoring department or are way too sweet and overbearing to be water. They have so many great flavors like: Blueberry Pomegranate, Berry, Grape, Kiwi Strawberry, and Peach Mango to name a few. When I first purchased it, It was on special at the commissary for an amazing forty cents a bottle! Unbelievable! I believe the normal price for this product is around one dollar and eighty-seven cents .So give this one a try if you are looking for something healthy and great tasting. I am glad I did.

scottandtracey says "Best Yogurt Ever!" about Yoplait Yoplait Delight

scottandtracey — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 22:23:51 GMT

I purchased Yoplait Delights after seeing an ad in a magazine. I was skeptical because I have tried many brands/varieties/flavors of yogurt trying to find one that didn't taste like yogurt. I was pleasantly surprised because it didn't taste like yogurt at all. It tasted like pudding. I was so surprised that I had to double check to make sure it was really yogurt! They come in 4 varieties...Lemon Torte, Raspberry Chocolate, Triple Berry, and Caramel. I have tried all of them and I love all of them equally. The lemon torte taste like a lemon meringue pie! The triple berry taste like a strawberry cream milkshake. If I had to pick one as a favorite, I would go with the Chocolate Raspberry. It is such a great combination. They are a great value also. I got 4 in a pack for around two dollars. I also had a coupon when I first tried them so I only paid around seventy-five cents! What an incredible value.

scottandtracey says "Doesn't rub off" about Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain

scottandtracey — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:40:58 GMT

When I saw the commercial for this product I was so excited and had to have it. I have tried so many lip glosses and lipsticks in hopes of finding one product that stays on and doesn't feel sticky. This product was easy to apply and once it was on, it didn't rub off on anything. I was impressed. But I did find that the product didn't last as long as I had hoped. It seemed by lunch time it had disappeared from my lips. I will still buy the product since it may have just been the color that i selected.

scottandtracey says "Absolutey delicious!" about Sunshine - Cheeze It Duoz-zesty queso and white cheddar

scottandtracey — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:21:13 GMT

A friend offered these to me at work to snack on and I was hooked right away. Warning-very addictive! The zesty queso and white cheddar combination are perfect. It was hard not to eat the whole box! I am a fan of all the varieties of cheeze its but this one is the best. The queso flavoring is excellent especially when combined with the white cheddar. This is great to have on hand in case you have company stopping by. Also the price is great on this compared to a lot of other snack crackers and chips.

scottandtracey says "Finally a deodorant that works!" about Degree Clinical Protection

scottandtracey — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:06:47 GMT

I bought this product after trying other brands and i found this product to work perfectly. Only recently did I discover that I needed a stronger antiperspirant/deodorant. The scent was great-not overbearing which I found some others to be. I applied the product as indicated-the evening before and when I woke up just applied a slight touch up. It kept my underarms dry and odor-free all day long. This was a boost in self confidence for sure. Although it cost more that regular deodorant, I felt that it was well worth it.

scottandtracey says "Makes your hair so smooth and soft" about Dove Intense Damage Therapy Shampoo for Accumulated Damage

scottandtracey — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 23:59:27 GMT

I first purchased this product becuase I had a coupon. I am so glad I tried it. My hair is damaged and I have tried several products in the past with not so great results--products promise improvement but I usually see no significant changes. This product made my hair smoother and shinier and healthier after the first use. It is great to use everyday. My hair has never been in such great condition. I will definitely buy this product again and will gladly pay whatever the regular price is..it is worth it!

scottandtracey says "Best Phone with lots of extras" about LG - Voyager in Titanium Cell Phone

scottandtracey — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 23:48:02 GMT

I purchased my LG Voyager about a year ago and I am still very satisfied with it. I tried other phones but this one is great especially if you like to text. The full QWERTY keyboard is the best and easiest to use. It has an exterior screen and an interior one that you can access when you flip open the phone. It looks like a mini laptop computer when it is opened. The camera is great and so is the video feature. It is very user friendly as I have had no problems figuring out all the menu options. I highly recommend this phone.

scottandtracey says "great coverage without the caked on look" about Cover Girl True Blend Mineral Powder Foundation

scottandtracey — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 18:39:32 GMT

I tried Cover Girl Mineral makeup after I had heard several reviews of this product. I don't like to wear a lot of makeup and when I do wear it I want it to look natural. I see too many women out there that look so "made-up" because they have an excessive amount of makeup on. That is why I love this product! It is so light and airy and I feel like I am hardly wearing any makeup at all. But the coverage it provides is great. It is very easy to apply and goes a long way. Although it is more expensive than regular makeup,I think that it is worth it. Since I have tried mineral makeup I won't go back to regular foundation again. My skin seems to be in better condition also. It is easy to remove also since it goes on so light. It is easy to find the right tone for my skin also. It comes with a brush but I apply it with a puff since it seems easier to apply but both methods work fine with this makeup.

scottandtracey says "Product works but unhappy with side effects" about Topamax

scottandtracey — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 18:17:56 GMT

My specialist prescribed Topamax for me after I had tried several other prescription drugs with no success. I had been suffering from migraines for several months and have tried home remedies, over-the-counter medicines, etc. And also listened to advice from other people that I know had the same problem. After taking the prescription medication Topamax for a few weeks, I had noticed an improvement over the number of occurences I was having a migraine. It went from one to two a week down to none with the use of the medication. But after taking it a few weeks I started suffering with an upset stomach. It got so bad that I started feeling sick to my stomach everyday with no relief. I went back to my doctor to see what was causing me the problem. Unfortunately for me, I was having a side effect from the medication and it was so bad for me that I had to stop taking the Topamax. I was disappointed but I knew it was either deal with an occasional migraine or have stomach pain every day. I couldn't......

scottandtracey says "great concealer" about Avon MagiX Face Perfector SPF 20

scottandtracey — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 18:04:04 GMT

I was looking for a product that I could use on my face that was not tinted but would help conceal my pores and give me an even skintone. I saw this product in one of the books I received from a coworker. The initial price held me back from purchasing it right away. I finally decided to purchase the product when it was on sale for 7.99. The product was great-It immediately concealed my pores and made my skin tone even all over my face. The product was easy to apply and I had to use very little. I applied it over my moisturizer since my skin is very dry. I had to use very little makeup after using this product. I was very happy with the results-it made me look more natural since i had to use less makeup to get an even toned look. I would highly recommend this product and don't let the price scare you away as it did me at first. It is well worth the money! And I will definitely purchase it again.

scottandtracey says "Great toothpaste for sensitive teeth" about Crest Pro-Health Clean Cinnamon Toothpaste

scottandtracey — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 17:54:31 GMT

I first tried this brand when I was having issues with sensitivity in my teeth. I tried other brands of sensitivity toothpaste but didn't like the taste. When I saw that this brand also is for this problem I decided to give it a shot. I read other reviews on this site that weren't very good so I was a little skeptical before I even tried it. I am glad I ignored the reviews and decided to give it a try. The cinnamon flavor was great. I am pleased with the effectiveness of the sensitivity protection. I have not had a problem with any sensitivity to hot/cold/sugar, etc. The texture was a little gritty but this didn't deter me from using it again. The price was average as compared with other brands. I was very pleased that this brand was used to treat several problems thus making it a "complete" toothpaste-tartar, gingivitis, cavities, sensitivity, etc. This makes the product a great bargain.

scottandtracey says "Great product for your hair!" about TRESemme Healthy Volume (Builds body and fullness)

scottandtracey — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 17:43:26 GMT

This product is one of the best I have tried for my hair. Before I used it my hair was very dry, dull, and I was very unhappy with the condition of it. When I first tried Tressemme Healthy Volume, I was given a free bottle (sample size) to try. I was very surprised at the results since I tried other products claiming to do the same thing. The product has a great scent and was just the right consistency to work with. I noticed a big improvement in the condition of my hair immediately after the first use. After using for one week my hair drastically changed from dull and dry to very soft and manageable. I had a lot more volume than before. And the scent was wonderful. After using up the free bottle, I went to the store to stock up on this great product. Although it was more expensive than the other brands, I was willing to pay it because I would just be wasting my money on the otehr products that didn't work as well. I would highly recommend this product!

scottandtracey says "Delicous and portable healthy snack" about Blue Diamond Natural Oven Roasted Almonds

scottandtracey — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 02:26:46 GMT

I bought a canister of Blue Diamond Natural Oven Roasted Almonds the other day and all I can say is "wow!". I bought the Cinnamon Brown Sugar flavor and these are by far the best I have ever tasted. This is a great snacking idea especially if you all looking for something healthy that taste great. I also love the portable container. I take this to work and keep it at my desk to help control my cravings during the day. I thought the price was a little bit high but well worth it! It also has a clear side on the container with markings indicating the serving size which is really helpful when you are trying to watch what you eat....

scottandtracey says "My dog went crazy over Greenies" about Greenies Pantry Treat-Pak Petite 50 Bones 30 oz

scottandtracey — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 03:11:04 GMT

I first was introduced to "Greenies" when we first got out dog "Kiki" in Hawaii. A friend told us how great they were and how their dog went crazy over these treats. They gave our dog a sample to try and she loved them. So we went and got our own at the pet store. She has been hooked ever since. We have been giving her greenies everyday (once a day) since we got her 5 years ago. We only had a few days that we ran out and didn't buy them right away, and I think she was depressed on those days! Since she eats them so fast, I bought the smaller size because you get a lot more in the bag. Plus they are a bit expensive. That is the only downside....

scottandtracey says "Best frozen dinner entree" about Bertolli Chicken Parmigian w/ penne

scottandtracey — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 02:26:41 GMT

I tried Bertolli after I received a coupon. I thought with such a discount, it was the perfect opportunity to purchase this product since I had been wanting to try it. I am so glad I did. It was so easy to make especially with nothing to add. All you have to do is empty the frozen entree into a skillet, cover, and cook over medium heat. I was a bit skeptical at first, but it was so delicious and so worth the money. It tasted just like it came from a restaurant. I have also tried other varieties as well and they are all great. I would highly recommend this product especially if you are a busy person and don't have much time to throw dinner together.

scottandtracey says "Excellent bake at home pizza" about Papa Murphy's - Killeen, TX

scottandtracey — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 20:52:05 GMT

When I first heard about this bake at home pizza place, I thought "why would I want to buy a pizza from a pizza place that I have to take home and bake? why not just order and have one that was already cooked delivered to my door?" Well, let me tell you, I stopped by one the other day out of curiousity. They make it right in front of you, with fresh ingredients and an impressive menu to please any taste. After waiting about 10 minutes, the employee handed me my freshly made pizza on it's own cooking tray, nicely wrapped with heating instructions. Still a bit skeptical, I went home and baked it and in about 10 minutes, I was eating a fresh baked, hot pizza that was simply delicious! I am a big cheese lover, and this pizza was loaded with lots of cheese and pepperoni and it was one of the best pizzas I have had in a long time. Well worth the wait...and the price was only 5.99 for a large pepperoni..what a bargain!...

scottandtracey says "Perfect warm dessert" about Betty Crocker Warm Delights Hot Fudge Brownie

scottandtracey — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 20:34:55 GMT

I purchased the mini version of the warm delights and I thought it was so delicious especially since you can eat them while they are nice and warm. I am definitely going to purchase more of these and keep them on hand when any of my family members gets a "chocolate cake" craving and I don't have time to bake a cake. The texture was very moist. My only dissapointment was that it was too small and was gone before I knew it. But overall a great dessert when you don't have time to bake!...
