I love grabbing a pint of Alec's Ice cream when I'm shopping at Whole Foods. They have such unique flavors and cute packaging. The ice cream tastes very rich and smooth, and the mix-ins are evenly spread throughout the pint. Surprisingly, my stomach doesn't react as much to Alec's ice cream as it does with other dairy products.

Smart Sweets makes really delicious candies with less sugar! I really love their seasonal sweets around Christmas and Easter time. They are great for gifting! The gummies have a nice, chewy texture. I only wish they had bigger bags!

I appreciate that these bars are savory, and now sweet like so many other bars on the market. They do pack a good amount of protein. I thought the flavor of each was good overall, but they fell short on the texture for me. They were a bit dry and crumbly when eating straight from the package. I needed a glass of water while I was eating it. I would consider crumbling them up and adding to a salad or soup for a little extra crunch.

I will start that I'm not a big fan of non-dairy dips, cheeses or spreads. That being said, I did like the flavor of the Chipotle sauce, but it had a bit of a weird after taste to me. It lacked a bit of the depth and consistency of a dairy-based sauce. I found that I liked it better on a burger or sandwich rather than eating it as a dip.

Joolies makes some really tasty date products! However, you can't go wrong with the fresh pitted medjool dates. I like to open mine up and add a tablespoon of nut butter for a tasty snack or breakfast. They are sweet and have a smooth texture. I store mine in the fridge after opening and they last for a long time!

S'well makes some really fun beverage products. My water bottle has held up pretty well over the years, but it does show its age with a few nicks and dents. My water doesn't stay quite as cold as some other bottles I have, but I appreciate the fun designs and ability to throw my bottle in my purse for on the go.

These crackers are to die for! Who knew Patagonia started making their own snacks? They have that perfect amount of crunchy any tanginess you get with sourdough. I actually wish they were just a tad crunchier, but they are the perfect size for making cute apps. I like to pair them with Patagonia's smoked salmon and a little cream cheese. Yum!

I'm not sure if it was the flavor I chose, but I wasn't a fan of this coffee. To me, the Mocha tasted like a sugar-free hot chocolate, but cold. I would have liked a little bit of sweetness, and craved that latte-foam you get with some other canned coffees.

We typically buy bulk toilet paper at Costco, but have explored new products to live more sustainability. This toilet paper holds up well, but is a little less soft than your average roll. You do get a nice amount of sheets per roll and I like that each roll comes wrapped for cleanliness. I do feel a bit better knowing this toilet paper is tree and dye free which is better for our planet and my body.

We drink a lot of Olipop in our household. Some favorites are the Vintage Cola and the Banana Cream. I find them more refreshing than your mainstream sodas, but a little less bubbly. They are not overly sweet, but still on the sweet side. I knocked off a star for price, since they are pretty pricey compared to other sodas.
