    Poppi

    Solid soda replacement. The not-sugars in Poppi are less jarringly not-sugar and less distracting than other modern sodas like Olipop. They run on the expensive side, but I guess we have to wait until they reach Coke economies of scale.

    Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

    Excellent original flavors, as a big ice cream fan I can confidently say if you like the flavor on the package it's worth trying out! The flavors do tend to run a little sweet in my personal preference, so I prefer Jeni's on its own in a cone rather than on top of pie.

    The fruit juice addition tastes slightly more premium than the La Croix ilk. If it's stocked in a tech start up fridge I'd reach for it every time.

    Great design and good szechwan kick, and all around great sauce, but less flavorful than Lao Gan Ma.

    I've used No 3 the hair perfector, and I have to say - if you use it correctly (not as a conditioner, but follow the directions on the bottle!) it really does something different from conditioners and hair masks. My hair is slipperier, smoother, and shinier. I don't always notice when the effect fades, maybe a week? It requires a decent time commitment with wet hair, so it's a weekend (or WFH camera off) pamper product, but it does have a really nice effect.

    Oatly

    Not all oat milks are created equal. I've tried maybe 10-15 different brands at this point and Oatly is consistently in the upper tier of quality. It doesn't taste watery, it has excellent mouthfeel, and is drinkable as-is. The full fat one is quite rich and nice as creamer substitute or in oatmeal - I found it too rich to use as a latte base.

    It's water in a can. I appreciate that it's more environmentally friendly than water bottles, but it is just water in a can.

    AeroPress

    The perfect blend of portability, price, and coffee quality. It's dead simple analog and I'm not a big enough coffee snob to need anything more. I've brought it camping, overseas, and it hasn't let me down in 10 years. Tip: For shorter people, it helps to have a lower table for better leverage.

    In the short time I've used it I didn't notice a huge difference in my water quality, but I wasn't sure if there was an issue with my water hardness before. It might be one of those things I notice when it's gone. However it is an impressive feat to make plumbing seem approachable, where I thought they did an excellent job.

    I couldn't tell if there was improvement or not after using. The smell is quite strong, but the minty herbal note helps. Used the bottle, not until I get more delicate plants I wouldn't rebuy for myself. Could just be the wrong kind of user.
