Tried Parch's agave non-alcoholic cocktail. It was faintly reminiscent of a margarita and not something I would actively avoid. The flavor was a bit sweet and one-note for me, however, in a way I wouldn't seek out.

Overall my favorite of the widely available sparking flavored waters. Tastes more natural to me than La Croix or comparable alternatives, without being packed with sugar. 

Wasn't sure quite how to feel about this cereal. The flavor wasn't fully off-putting but wasn't something I would likely purchase again. It was hard to tell what sort of energy boost I got from the cereal.

Milkbar cake pops and cakes are so sweet! A guilty pleasure sugar bomb that is too much for me to consume unless offered, and even then, very occasionally. The cookies are a bit less overwhelming, but still feel packed with too much sweet punch.

Levain's chocolate chip cookies are the gold standard for me when it comes to a special treat. Thick, melty, unctuous. But its loaves of bread are a sleeper hit, too.

Siete Foods is my favorite grain-free tortilla at present. I don't feel like I am sacrificing flavor. Structurally, they do fall apart more easily. But I would buy again.

Unreal peanut butter cups give me all the pleasure of such a treat without as much of the guilt. I don't feel like I'm compromising at all despite lower sugar.

Goodles have the cheesy fun of mac n cheese while feeling like you're eating something a bit healthier. Not every flavor is a hit for me, but Cheddy Mac and Twist My Parm are winners.

Would prefer to buy in a larger quantity for a bit less per date.

Date Better's dates are delicious and feel like a fancy treat. But you only get two per package and it feels very expensive for the money.

Could use a bit more variety or meal rotation to keep me coming back.

Tried a few ipsa meals recently and was impressed. The enchiladas, tamales, chicken curry soup and oxtail ragu were all winners. It's not cheap, but at the equivalent per person of a meal from a fast casual spot, is great to have handy for a home-cooked dinner. Would definitely by more.
