Have you tried these products? Did you like them?

GardenCook - how weird!! Maybe they think Idahoans would turn up their noses at something grown in-state.

Want me to get some and ship them to you? I looked at Walmart.com and it says they carry them in stores locally.

I've found the regular Idaho Spuds in a FEW stores, but not very many. The "Bits" with the TMF offer were NOT in any stores when the offer was out -- Wal-Mart was a no go. Just strikes me as ridiculous that the plants are right here and yet we can't buy them.
Like everprincess, we've always had a problem with getting new products. When the great Qs are out in the beginning, seems like we can't find anything. Then once the Qs expire, they show up in the stores and don't sell, because there is no incentive to try them!
Don't know why it is so hard to get a potato in Idaho when we grow some of the best potatoes in the world. We have the worst time getting a baked potato around here unless we make it ourselves!
They are on the menu, but restaurants refuse to put them in the oven. When you try to order them, the wait staff tells you they have nothing but fried or mashed! Apparently, they think they are too expensive and try to force you to order something cheaper.
DH LOVES bakers. If we are told they are "out" before ordering, we usually leave the restaurant. We quit going to Ruby Tuesday, because that place kept waiting until AFTER we were nearly finished with our salad to inform us we would have to order something else.
If we insisted we wanted the baker we had been promised, they refused to bring it at the same time as our meat, and told us we would have to eat them separately. Got tired of that stunt REALLY quickly.

If you have a sweet tooth I have to recommend these 3 items. WONDERFUL!

All are individually wrapped - for those with the willpower for portion control.



Milk chocolate truffles . ...... . . White truffles . . .... . . A coconut yummy thing

[chitownmelli]

Renee, DH LOVES the Lindt white truffles - me, I adore the dark chocolate - those are just. so. darn. good. LOL!!!! I'm such a chocolate snob, I was really surprised to find a chocolate that I didn't have to travel to find that was so tasty :)

[3timesoccermom]

Melli - like you, Hubs also has connoiseur (sp?) tastes but he likes the Lindt too. I've tried the dark ones and they're probably the best of all dark chocolate I've tasted but I'm a simpleton and really don't enjoy it as much as the others. So more for you!

I find myself alternately frustrated and glad there aren't too many in each bag!

[3timesoccermom]

Here's a product I'm disappointed in - Mt. Olive Hamburger dill chips. The taste is fine but too many of the slices are torn to pieces.

Tried these - the cocoa roast almonds. Not very flavorful. Anyone else?

[Gnorga]

3xmom - I really liked those!
I don't buy them in the 100 calorie packs though, I get them in a taller container.

They weren't as good as I hoped they would be, but i do like them

[3timesoccermom]

Gnorga - My middle daughter tried them and liked them and the little bags help her with portion control. I'm not a fan of almonds anyway (little suckers are always so dry, they just choke me!) so it might be unfair for me to critique them. Give me roasted, salted pecans or cashews and I will be nut-happy!

[Gnorga]

I agree!
almonds are probably my least favorite nut. hard and dry

[MsSweetCheeks]

I have tried the Tai Pei entrees. I find they are alright. I personally find they put too many vegis in them and the vegis don't taste like how they do when you get entrees at a Chinese restaurant. Then they have more of some of the vegetables that I have a harder time eating.

I know Tai Pei had the General Tso's chicken that I find is pretty good, but Tyson's has the anytime appetizers of General Tso's chicken that is way better!!! There is another brand too that I've tried that has a better General Tso's chicken over Tai Pei but not as good as Tyson's but I can't remember the brand name.
