Zyliss Easy Spin 4-6 Serving Salad Spinner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had my Zyliss salad spinner for a few years, and now I'm replacing it. And it's for the dumbest reason, too! Most of the unit is lasting fine. I use it at least 4-5 times per week, and I fill it pretty much every time. However, I must not be gentle enough with it. The spinning action is transmitted to the basket by 6 little plastic tabs on the edges of the lid mechanism. One by one, those tabs have broken off, and now the mechanism no longer fully engages with the basket. I can still get it to spin up if I pull and pull and pull; the basket spins slowly, then faster, and then finally catches up with the lid mechanism and responds fully to my pulling. So it's still usable; just not very practical. I wish I could fix the little tabs instead of replacing the whole thing, but I guess at least I will have an extra basket and bowl if I ever want to do two batches of something without emptying the bowl.
Edit to add: I got my new spinner, and am pleased to note that the plastic tabs that I spoke of have been replaced with much sturdier ones -- instead of being one layer, they're now each a little square of plastic, which should be nearly impossible to break. I'm very happy with the new version, and would change my review to 5 stars if I could!

Ragu Fresh & Simple Smooth Pasta Sauce, Traditional Tomato Basil, 13.5-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is good sauce. The packaging is great, a pouch that stores easily upright and takes up little space in your cupboard. No bulky jars to take up space. The heating is also very convenient, just clip a corner and pop in microwave... couldn't be easier. Flavor is good, it's mild and easily doctored with a few spices.
What I didn't like about this is there isn't quite enough for one pound of cooked pasta. And that's how most pasta comes packaged, is in one pound packages. Two of these would be way too much. So, I found I needed to add a little bit more to the mix. Otherwise, really good stuff.

Tasty Bite Channa Masala Entree, Heat & Eat, 10-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 6) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Vegan. Natural. Kosher. Chana Masala is a top favorite vegan Indian dish. Was very happy and eager to try another choice for Chana Masala from Tasty Bite, especially because Amazon seems to have trouble keeping the Chana Masala's in stock because they are so popular. Did not disappoint! Very enjoyable. Sweet coriander is the most prominent flavor note. The brown savory gravy is delicious. The amount of chili is very mild, so not very hot at all for Indian cuisine. Heat affectionados may want to add chili pickle, or their favorite condiment. Made with onions, chickpeas, tomatoes, sunflower oil, coriander, salt, spices, chilis, bay leaf, and turmeric. 360 calories and 12g protein per pouch. This review is out there for those for whom this makes a difference. See all of my reviews and the vegancompassion Profile for more great choices.
