Centrum Flavor Burst Multivitamin Chews

I was excited to try these; mainly because they were chewable. I hate swallowing pills and always envied the kids gummy bear vitamins. So when I saw Centrum had adult vitamin chewables I was elated.
I tried the grape flavor and had to take only 2 that were about the size of a small gumball. They were easy to chew and at first tasted pretty good. When I reached the center there was a sharp sour taste then some kind of nasty after taste. Needless to say even though they are convenient to take, the taste was appalling to me.
I don't recommend these for the flavor but if you have a really hard time swallowing these would be great, if you don't mind the gross after taste.

Ivory 2-in1 Hair and Body

 



Wouldn't it be easier if you could have a shampoo and body wash all in one bottle? Wouldn't it be easier if it could be used by your entire family? Wouldn't it be nice if it was an affordable brand? Well, I found it..... Ivory 2-in-1 Hair and Body is the perfect solution for any family trying to get an easy, effective and affordable product for the entire family. Not only can it be used by the entire family but it cleans your hair and body at the same time.

We used this product on our family of six ranging from ages 7-40. I know at my age it is very important for me to find a product that wont dry my hair out, my teenage daughter needs one that wont leave it feeling greasy, and my youngest with allergies needs a product with no dyes or heavy perfumes.  My family was very pleased with this product. It was easier to use, saved space in the shower and was most definitely cost effective to use only one bottle for the entire family.   Ivory 2-in-1 Hair and Body  is a definite product we will be buying in the near future.

Children's Claritin Allergy

Yes we are a family that suffers from allergies. My husband and 2 of my children have problems with this every year. Because my 7 year old has asthma related allergies I did not want to stop his regular medication to try Children's Claritin Allergy out. So my 13yr old gave it a go. She loved the fact that  Children's Claritin Allergy is chewable(she still doesn't like taking tablets) and the grape flavor was delicious. My daughter's allergies always include runny nose, itchy eyes, and sneezing. Children's Claritin Allergy relieves these symptoms including itching of the nose and throat. It is appropriate for children age 2 up to adults, and is for indoor and outdoor allergies.

My favorite feature is the non-drowsy and 24 hour relief. Children should never take anything that makes them drowsy(in my opinion...they don't function well doped up). I don't know about the rest of you, but I can never remember to take any medication on time...so I love that this is just 1-2 tablets (depending on age) only 1 time a day.

It worked well for my daughter and relieved her allergies....although I wouldn't say it provided a total of 24 hours of relief for her.

Kroger Spring Dinners

I was able to receive free coupons for an entire Kroger's Dinner. It included Kroger's cake mix, rich and creamy icing, crescent rolls, mashed potatoes and pork tenderloin.
Lets start with the pork. I used a recipe I received from my Aunt. Put pork tenderloin in crock pot, pour 1 can of coke over it. Let it cook on high 4-5 hours. Add Kroger's BBQ sauce and shred pork last 1/2 hour. It turned out gorgeous. Very juicy and delicious. The pork was not fatty or tough.
The rolls and mashed potatoes were a wonderful addition to the pork. I saw no difference between the Kroger brand and the pricier name brand.
I have always enjoyed Kroger cake mixes; so it was no surprise that I liked this one. Their cakes are always so rich and buttery and the icing was sweet and creamy.
My family enjoyed our Sunday dinner and we plan to definitely purchase these items again.

New Products from Quaker

 

 

I had the opportunity to try 3 of Quakers new products: Perfect Portions instant oatmeal, Big Chewy bars and Quaker Chocolate Chip Cookies.

 

Perfect Portions instant oatmeal- I have always loved Quaker oatmeal. I remember eating from those instant packages as a kid. I loved the multi flavor packs, because I could have something different every day. Quaker did not disappoint me. The taste of their perfect portions were the same great Quaker  taste I have come to love.

 

Big Chewy bars- What can I say but LOVED THEM. The texture was wonderful, so soft and chewy that my daughter(who has braces) could eat them with no trouble. The drizzle of milk chocolate across the top was an added bonus. These made great on the go snacks for my busy family of 6.

 

Chocolate Chip Cookies- These were my least favorite. Although they had a wonderful taste, the texture seemed grainy. The cookie was a little hard and dry and fell apart just trying to get them out of the package.(and if you have kids like mine...broken cookies are not acceptable) 

 

Overall wonderful new additions to Quaker and they can be found in your local stores.

Campbell's Slow Kettle Style Soups

My husband took Campbell's Slow Kettle Style Soup to work.  It was the Tuscan-style Chicken and White Bean. He loved the simple packaging and easy heatable container that he could eat right out of. There were huge chunks of meat and plenty of beans in the soup. The carrots, celery, spinach and tomato pieces were large; unlike the tiny pieces in most soups. The asiago cheese, thyme and rosemary gave the soup enough flavor that no additional seasonings were needed. The portion was very large and very satisfying.
Campbells offers 7 different flavors of these warm hearty soups. They are available in your local grocery stores. Don't forget to go to Campbells and download a coupon.
I have already bought several more flavors for my husband to try.

Simple Truth

 
Simple Truth products are put out by the Kroger Family Stores. Free From 101” artificial ingredients and preservatives these natural/or organic products are not new. This is a new name for the same Private Selection Organic and Naturally Preferred products.
I had the opportunity to try 2 products from Simple Truth: Cucumber Melon Sparkling Beverage and Fudge Graham Nutrition Bar. At first cucumber/melon water did not sound appealing, but it was delicious and refreshing; even my 10 year old boys enjoyed it and wanted more when we finished the bottle. The Fudge Graham was amazing.  I ate it as an afternoon snack and it was delightfully filling. The soy crisps gave it a nice inner texture and the milk chocolate coating on the outside was pleasing to the eye and the taste buds. I did contemplate what it would taste like covered in carob(since my youngest is allergic to chocolate, my thoughts do go there). 3 of my kids had a taste of the bar as well and loved it.
We try to eat healthier and more natural foods so these products are perfect for a healthy family and also one on a budget. You can pick up any of these products in any Kroger family store at an affordable price.
I recommend this product to anyone trying to make a healthier lifestyle for themselves or the ones they love.
