Candy
So for someone who normally doesn't like lemon, this was very surprising and refreshing. I needed something to help with the queasiness while also adding nutrients to my body (almonds) and this really helped. I will buy again as I felt like it'll b...
Lemon Bliss Almonds
These were soft, tasted like strawberry and not in an artificial flavoring way. I was able to have two and felt satisfied. It is important to me that if I spend this kind of money on a snack, that it lasts for awhile
Strawberry Pillows
What a great and healthier alternative for those needing a chocolate and peanut butter treat. I was surprised by how one was enough which allowed me to enjoy the bag over several nights. I was worried about my glucose level during chemo and these g...
SkinnyDipped Peanut Butter Cups
When trying these I wasn't sure what to expect. They had kind of a candied cashew taste with not as much crunch. They more melted in my mouth which was unexpected but yummy. These were easy to eat the whole bag so watch out! That's how much I like...
Salty + Sweet
What a fun and yummy treat! I got these to see how they would be unravelling and for those who like to fidget this was a fun little enjoyment and was longer than you'd expect. The taste was very close to the red top licorice you get from another br...
Strawberry Spirali
So I'm not a dark chocolate fan truthfully, but during chemo I occasionally want something sweet since my taste buds have been messed up and this has been great. As well as the fact that it's much healthier than normal candy. I will be trying more ...
Dark Chocolate Peanut Gems - UNREAL
Ok so these are amazing. Not really a dark chocolate fan but the combo with the peanut butter won me over. So far, these have been my favorite healthier candy.
Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups - value bags - Unreal Snacks
This has got to be one of the best chocolate bars I've ever had. No refined sugars so I wasn't sure what to expect but it tasted to simple and pure. No weird after tastes, no jolt of sugar. Was fantastic!
Cashew Butter Milk Chocolate
Wow!!! Like seriously wow!! I just tried this with my husband and incredible. The mixture of the peanut butter with the cocoa and salt bits really was well balanced. 10 grams of protein and 100 calories. As I've been struggling with my protein,...
Peanut Butter
Beverages
This was a fun drink to try. Being someone who had lived grape soda since I was a kid, this didn't disappoint. I was worried about my glucose and my digestion and had an opportunity to try and was surprised. I will be buying again.
Grape
This was a take back to getting Cherry Limeades at the car hop restaurant that I loved. The cherry isn't overpowering and in fact you taste the lime more, but I loved it. A very refreshing prebiotic drink to help soothe an upset tummy with a touch ...
Cherry Limeade
So I needed a way to keep up my protein (and eating when I didn't want to eat on chemo) and this product really has helped. The shakes are easy to use, taste close to chocolate milk and do not have a bad after taste. It has been great being able to...
Gold Standard Ready To Drink Protein Shake
Digestive health
I was looking for something to add prebiotics into my system and this fit the bill. They come in many different flavors and I haven't found one that I haven't liked yet. This helped sooth my stomach during chemo and I will continue to buy these as ...
gutzy organic
So these were a life saver during chemo. They quickly curb an uneasy stomach and allow for you to balance out symptoms while going through treatment. I've also used these while on a boat and having sea sickness.
GIN GINS® Original Ginger Chews - The Ginger People US
Lifesaver!!! Not only have I used these for all chemo related queasiness but they've been used for someone with a chronic gallbladder issue (since removed). They are fast acting due to the peppermint oil and very soothing. Highly recommend.
ALTOIDS Classic Peppermint Breath Mints, 1.76 oz Tin
Salty
Smaller kernels so easier to choose. Flavor is light but not over powering. Bag is smaller but good for portion control. Will be trying 5 more of their flavors.
LOVE CORN Smoked BBQ | Delicious Crunchy Corn
Ok so these are YUMMY!! When I needed something salty but not too heavy (with chemo bloat) this was the best snack ever! Enjoyed this immensely!
Sea Salt
Really liked this. I was expecting it to be artificial cheddar popcorn taste and it wasn't. Was able to enjoy these with a side of blackberries and it was the perfect salty and sweet yet healthy snack.
Cheddar
Bars
Trying for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Good amount of cinnamon. The texture leads you to believe you're eating cookie dough. I like that I'm able to eat a bar with lower sugars 2g and protein 8g. Will try three more flavors I rec...
