Nutiva Organic Coconut Manna

I have had coconut oil previously but never had coconut manna. I lie using the coconut oil however after try the coconut manna I now have a new product I like that I will be using more than the coconut oil. I really like its taste. It was a bit of a process combining its hardened oil on top inch of jar however once warmed it mixed in fairly well. I like its creamy flavor and it tastes alot like a sweetened butter without all the extra garbage that's unhealthy for me.

Fruit Infused Water Bottle: INFUSION EDGE Wide Mouth, SHATTER & LEAK PROOF

I received a discount in exchange for my honest opinion of this product.
Upon receipt of this interesting product and removing it from its package I noticed there was no instructions. However, it was a simple enough design to figure out. I made some cucumber infused water by removing the inner chamber and unscrewing the chambers cover. It does have a wider mouth than many of the water bottles I have purchased however its not wide enough to wash by hand. The inner chamber was easy to remove fill with my sliced cucumber and replace in the bottle. I the filled with water and left sitting for a while To allow the flavor of the cumcucumber to infuse. Upon drinking it I tasted a pleasant flavored water. I do hahowever feel this bottle needed a spout to drink from rather than having to uscrew the bottles cover and sipping. Its not a difficult bottle to drink from but its design could use some changes. Since described as a wide mouth bottle it would seem as it should be easy enough to wash by hand but its not. You will need a brush of some sort to wash this. The bottle is made of what appears to be a strong sturdy hard plastic. It comes with a 5 year guarantee so I assume its not easy to break or crack by simply dropping. However, im not willing to purposely throw it on the ground to test that factor. I willsay it does not have the plastic smell to it as some bottles I have used previously and thats very pleasing. I recommend others to this bottle but urge the manufacturer and designer to possibly change a bit of its design to make for easier cleaning and drinking.

Blue Diamond unsweetend Almond Milk

I mainly buy the +BlueDiamond Vanilla Almond Breeze Almond Milk however I usually try to keep the Original on hand also as I do not buy regular milk and use Almond milk in everything that calls for milk to be used. I use the Vanilla in my hot and could cereals as well as prepartion of my Hot Chocolate and in making my fresh smoothies. I use the original in my mac and cheese, my potatoes, my casseroles, and everything else including baking that calls for milk. I always replace the milk in recipes with Almond milk. I have not tried the Blue Diamond chocolate Almond Milk. Almond milk has more calcium and less calories than regular milk. It is soy free and lactose free. However I do suggest to be careful if you have nut allergies.
