Nancy's plain soy yogurt: Oddly, the plain flavor of this product has more sugar than either the blueberry or strawberry flavors I tried, with 15g per cup. With the plain yogurt, the true flavor of the product really comes through, and it's not particularly pleasant. It tastes like a highly concentrated piece of tofu and, for some reason, had a savory aftertaste despite the sugar. I found myself adding honey to mask the strong flavor. 2.0/5.0

Norr Skyr Organic Gooseberries Yogurt: The clean design and Scandinavian gooseberry flavor made me very excited to try this brand of yogurt. Overall, though, the product was underwhelming for several reasons. First, the texture is much thinner than Siggi's and surprisingly loose for a skyr. Next, the gooseberries (which were cubed and on the bottom of the yogurt) had almost zero flavor and seemed to be present merely for texture, though it was mushy at that. Disappointing. 2.0/5.0

Sound Sparkling peach and ginger white tea: I bought this bottle of white tea from Perelandra Natural Food Center in Brooklyn. As a fan of both peach and ginger, as well as sparkling versions of normally-not-sparkling beverages, I was excited to try it. Unfortunately, the flavor is weak and diluted, and the carbonation doesn’t hold up for long after the bottle is opened (on the order of 5 minutes). Would not purchase again. 2.0/5.0

12 Tides Chili Pepper Puffed Kelp Chilps: These kelp chips have a texture similar to asian rice crackers but a little more dense (cassava and tapioca flour form the base). I haven't had kelp-based chips before, and I expected them to taste a bit like seaweed, but the chili pepper seasoning was way too overpowering – like eating paprika and cayenne spice directly. 2.0/5.0

365 Organic Cheese Squares: The first underseasoned crackers I've had of this type. Crackers taste somewhat stale, cheddar flavor is bland. 1.5/5.0

Whole Foods organic mango greek yogurt: Very strange flavor that is reminiscent of cottage cheese. Watery for Greek yogurt. Only saving grace is the little cubes of mango throughout, which are good. Yogurt leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. 1.5/5.0
