Daiya is a maker of vegan cheeses and other vegan items, such as cream ‘cheeze’, which, if I recall correctly, was how I was introduced to the Daiya brand in the first place. Their cream cheese is a review for another day, but suffice it to say—I liked it and was interested to try more…

The Air Fryer. What a concept. We were resistant to it at first, but Black Friday/holiday deals persuaded us to get one—specifically, a PowerXL Power AirFryer model. I’m not sure what we were expecting, but we were blown away and have had absolutely no regrets with it. We are now a part of the air…

Okay, so, if you don’t follow my writing website, you may not know about my experiences with Sticker Mule. Sticker Mule is a website where you can get stickers, magnets, and more made of your designs or logos. I’ve been using them to make stickers and magnets of my book characters. It’s been really great…

Chick as in…Chicken Seitan. That’s the goal of this Upton’s Natural seitan product—to be like chicken. Without, you know, actually being chicken. Due to a ridiculous sale at our grocery store, we got a ton of these Seitan packs to try it out in different formats. Because you aren’t going to eat this seitan as…

As with any apple with such marketing and pomp, I have to ask: Was it worth it?…

Okay, yes, in my White Symphony tea review, I said that I had no need to try the White Peony tea since the White Symphony tea was so good. But I did anyway. …And I pretty much feel the same after trying it. The White Peony Tea, even more so than the White Symphony Tea,…

This is NOT a mustard. This Smoky Chipotle Mustard is some form of BBQ sauce pretending to be mustard. And it is amazing. The Dillman Farm‘s Smoky Chipotle Mustard tastes so much like BBQ sauce. And that’s great for me since I love that smoky BBQ flavor. I would eat BBQ sauce with probably everything…

The Regent apple is interesting to me. It looks normal. Red skin, white flesh, sort of crunchy and soft. Sounds straightforward, right? However, where things get interesting is the flavor. The Regent’s flavor is sweet and vaguely…tropical. I want to say guava-like for lack of a better comparison. I was kind of confused by its…

The Greening apple…is green. I don’t know the exact variety of Greening these apples were. There are many, apparently (as one can see by searching on Orange Pippin). These belong to one of them. This unknown type of Greening apple has pure white flesh and a good crunch. It is not that tart or sweet—pretty…
