Itzy Ritzy Eco-Friendly Reusable Snack Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got 4 of these bags and am very happy. I specifically got these bags because they have a zipper, I'm not a fan of velcro. I don't have to worry about anything falling out when I toss these around. My toddler can get into these quite easily which makes us both happy. We have put quite a few things into these. One bag is devoted to trail mix and it lives in my purse. Another is for fresh apples (they leave a permanent yellowish stain on the liner). Cucumbers did OK and didn't leak (wow) but I prefer a hard container for juicy fruits and veggies. Pretzels stay fresh for the day but get a bit stale if left in the bag for a few days. Sandwiches do great and don't dry out.
Before the first use I cold washed in a lingerie bag on delicate and air dried. Mostly I just flip the liner inside out and wash it with my hand-washable dishes (I leave the outside cloth dry and the liner dries quite quickly). They clean up quick and easy.
I contacted the company to inquire about the material used. They were very friendly, informative and actually conducted their own testing with an outside lab. The lining is BPA, PVC, and phthalate free. Nice to know that they didn't take the word of the fabric manufacturer and did their own testing.
Since purchasing these lunch bags I have gotten one of their larger bags also. We use it for our wet swimsuits and it works wonderfully for keeping the wetness contained. Everything else in the gym bag stays dry.
All-in-all they are a bit expensive but I have gotten much more use out of them than I expected. I would certainly recommend them.

Seeds Kit Complete Garden in a can Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted to move away from hybrid seeds into open pollinated to start saving my own when I found this kit. The product is well packaged and provides more than enough seeds for a full year of planting in my garden (1/2 acre). Seeds are high quality and very clean, with excellent germination rates. I was sort of skeptical with the price being so low, but I am very pleased with this purchase and would reccomend it to anyone. All of those seeds at that price is a great deal and would be much more expensive if purchased seperately. It isn't packaged for long term seed storage, but I would be confident with storing for 2 years or more in the fridge. I'll be planting these though and harvesting some fresh seeds for next year. The only thing I've bought extra was lima beans and seed potatoes. I believe everything else is covered for this year with seed to spare.
If you are interested in more details to give you an idea of the quantity you get, read on. So far I have planted in the spring garden or greenhouse the following:
All Romain Lettuce seeds 4'x4' area in raised bed.
All Carrot seeds 4'x4' area in raised bed.
All Head Lettuce seeds 4'x8' area in raised bed.
All sweet peas 75' row .
All Raddish 10' of row.
1/2 pack watermelon seeds 12 plants in green house.
1/2 pack cantelope seed 12 plants in green house.
1/2 pack of honeydew melon 12 plants in green house.
1/4 pack bell pepper in green house 8 plants.
1/4 pack of each tomatoe variety. 16 plants in green house.
1/4 pack of cucumber 8 plants in green house.

The germination rate of seeds diminishes over time and storage conditions are extremely important. It is reccomended that this can be kept in your refrigerator, or other cool, dark, dry environment. Use it no later than the planting season following its purchase and replace on an annual basis. This practice of "rotating your stock", to insure freshness.

Tomato Powder, 2 oz. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I became familiar with this powder, as well as many other dry products from Barry Farms, when my son was little and we were involved in scouting together. Even years after he left the scouts I remained involved at the large regional camp here for the boy scouts teaching survival training. And I still do a lot of hiking and camping on my own. Powdered spices, veggies, cheeses, bullion, and various stocks were a staple item on camping trips due to their convenience. Some of the dry wares were much better than others. This tomato powder was definitely one that turned out to be consistently convenient and tasty, and thus worthy of recommending. We used it when we made stews and soups and it added a flavorful tomato taste to the various broths and stocks. I would not recommend this product for making tomato soup since its rather costly, and besides, dried soups are easy and cheap for taking along on a hike. It is best used in enriching the flavor of a soup or stew, whether it be a ready made mix, or one you are making from stock. It is very rich and surprisingly good. I took one star off for it is a little costly for only the 2 oz. you get. But for what its designed for, it is worth the price since you don't use all that much at once. As I have stated in my other reviews of dried foods like Barry Farm brands, there will always be a core group of consumers that would never give a favorable nod to a powdered food substitute of any kind. This powder is definitely not going to remind you of the old home days of native tomato's from Grammas back yard for sure. If you feel you are one of those that never considered a dry substitute of any kind real food, trust me that this is no time to start feeling like Daniel Boone by trying out this powder. However if you are one that does a lot of hiking and camping where cooking your own meals over an open fire is a big part of that experience, by all means this tasty powder would greatly enliven that experience. Just remember its rather strong, and expensive, so use sparingly. Recommended...

Amore Tomato Paste, 4.5-Ounce Tubes (Pack of 12) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In the past, I just didn't use tomato paste very often. That's because most brands are just nasty. We'd always have a can of Hunt's or Contadina around, but I'd always be disappointed whenever I used them. It's really annoying to, say, make homemade enchilada sauce, have it taste mediocre, and then add insult to injury by having to throw away half a can of leftover tomato paste.
Amore, by contrast, actually keeps the bright tomato flavor. Since it's in tubes, there's none of the "tinny" taste so common to canned foods. And it's so easy to squeeze out a small amount that I use it all the time. There are all sorts of soups and sauces that can benefit from a little tomato flavor, but which don't justify opening a whole can of paste. (Not to mention the fact that most canned pastes would make the food taste worse, not better.)
There are only two mysteries about this product for me. First, a 1 1/2 tablespoon serving has 2 grams of fat. No other tomato pastes I looked at contain fat. Since the ingredients are only tomato paste and salt, I have to wonder where this fat comes from. The second mystery is that they label the box as "double concentrated." As far as I can tell, it's no more concentrated than any other tomato paste: I still have to use exactly the same amount in a recipe, it just tastes better than the other brands.
But I'll forgive Amore the mysterious fat and exaggerated labeling. This has become a cooking essential in my kitchen.
