Sqirl rhubarb lemonade: Fresh pretty-in-pink lemonade. Clean rhubarb flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. A mild lemonade that isn't particularly tart or acidic. 3.5/5.0

Siggi's Raspberry filmjolk: A thick, lightly sweetened raspberry yogurt drink. Good level of tartness and well balanced overall. My only regret is that it's difficult to get everything out due to the nature of the product and shape of the container. 4.0/5.0

Burma Superstar Lotus Root Chips: I ate at Burma Superstar in Richmond 6 years ago, so I instantly recognized their branding when I saw this bag of lotus chips on the shelves at Berkeley Bowl. Thinly sliced lotus root is deep fried and lightly tossed with nori, cayenne, and sesame. Oil saturates the rings, leaving your fingers coated in a thin layer of grease and speckles of seaweed. No serving size indicated on the packaging, but they lasted two days at work. 3.5/5.0

Milton's Gluten Free Cheddar Cheese Snack Crackers: Made with brown rice flour and oats, this gluten-free snack has a tangy cheddar flavor slightly reminiscent of cheddar and sour cream flavored Ruffles, but much healthier. I got through the 4.5 serving bag in an embarrassingly short amount of time. The packaging suggests pairing the crackers with various dips, but they're a great snack on their own – and they're reasonably priced. 4.0/5.0

Pop & Bottle Cacao Almond Milk: This nourishing bottle of organic almond milk is like chocolate milk for adults – it's more creamy than sweet, has a bit of texture, and finishes slightly bitter. It's the type of drink that provides natural energy and makes you feel good about your purchasing decision – especially since it meant saying no to a can of soda. 4.0/5.0

Pop Art Nori Sesame Popcorn: Sprinkled with bits of nori, this unique popcorn faithfully replicates the taste of seaweed strips in a Western form factor. With a minimal palate of ingredients, the product delivers a clear and distinct flavor. Texturally, they aren't the fluffiest or lightest popcorn I've had, but they are tasty and worth trying. 3.5/5.0
