Trader Joe's speculoos cookies: Technically, I already reviewed this snack, but it was back in the day when I didn't give numerical scores. Speculoos is a type of spiced European biscuit commonly made with brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. The TJ's version is sweet and has a good level of spice. They make you feel like it's the holidays. Overall, a good value snack. 3.5/5.0

Oishi Marty's salt and vinegar flavored cracklings: I bought this snack because I saw chicharons on the package, but when I got home, I was upset and baffled to see they were vegetarian.

Green Valley Organics Blueberry Pomegranate Acai kefir: This lactose-free drink is on the sweet side (23g of sugar per serving) but also has a slight tartness and clean flavor. While the bottle indicated 4 servings, the drink was thick and filling enough that I easily got 6 servings worth. It reminds me a bit of a gogurt for adults: much thicker and using better quality ingredients. 3.5/5.0

Field Day organic Wildlife Friends vanilla cookies: These are the type of cookies I would buy for my (future) children. The cookies are larger than most, with cute animal shapes (especially the polar bear), and they are just sweet enough. A good, wholesome snack. 3.5/5.0
