Spring is for Foodies

Welcome back! I’m sharing some cool products to spring you into March. Browse the list from mostly small businesses. Shop. Get to lip-smacking, drinking and traveling. I have something for the entire family.

 

Bonnie & Pop Drenched Oreos

I’m in love with these Oreos. Smooth Belgian chocolate surrounds the familiar scrumptious cookies. They maintain their chunk for dunkable moments. Treat yourself or give as a swanky gift. Finger-licking good!

Retail price: $29.99
Size: 18.69 ounces (53 kilograms)
Available: https://www.bonnieandpop.com

 

Lenox Signature Series Warm & Cool Region 4-Piece Wine Glass Set

This elegant stemware adds a nice touch to place settings. I’m a fan of the thin, lead-free crystal material; it’s lightweight. It looks exquisite. There's etching on the footnotes, whether to use the glass based on the wine’s origin, warm or cool climates. This concept, created by sommelier Victoria James, allows me to experience wines at their finest. Warm provides a deep bowl to allow the wine to breathe; whereas the cool offers a smaller opening to capture its essence.

Retail price: $115
Size: Warm Region Glass: 3.25″ Length | Cool Region Glass: 3.5″ Length | Both Glasses: 9.5″ Height
Available: https://www.lenox.com

  

Wildgrain Sourdough & Artisanal Bread Box Rolls

I adore everything in this bake-from-frozen subscription box. The sourdough breads taste hot, crusty and good. The rosemary garlic hit the spot. The fluffy orange-cranberry biscuits pack flavor. The pasta arrives fresh. I want a box delivered to my door every day.

Retail price: $89 per box (free shipping)
Size: varies
Available: https://wildgrain.com/

 

 

Whiskee Straw Set

You need Whiskee in your life and don’t even know it. These unique stainless-steel straws come with a whisk. I use them to whip up my chai powder mix and then I sip away. Also, the set includes a straw cleaner and silicone pouch for storage. Easy and fun!
Retail price: $24
Size: 16oz Straw: 8mm x 215 mm | 24oz Straw: 8mm x 240 mm
Available: Amazon

 

 

Cascadian Farm Organic Gluten Free Honey Vanilla Crunch Cereal

This is my new favorite cereal. I munch on these lightly sweetened, corn squares for breakfast. They contain 26 grams of whole grain per serving which makes me feel full. The hint of vanilla pleases my palate.

Retail price: $3.39
Size: 10.5 ounces
Available: Kroger, and supermarkets nationwide

 

Handzies 24 Count Free & Clear

 

Handzies Wipes Free & Clear

These individually wrapped towelettes come in handy. I put them in my purse for on-the-go around town and train travel. Made with soap and water, I clean my hands and dirty surfaces with the cloths. I like them because they are convenient and hypoallergenic.

Retail price: $12.99 (24 count) | $41.99 (100 count)
Size: each wipe – 7 in. x 6 in.
Available: https://handzies.com/

 

 

True Primal Beef Chili

This wholesome chili comes in an easy-to-open pouch. It contains spicy grass-fed beef and hearty vegetables. No beans. The meaty meal doesn’t weigh you down after eating. It pairs well with crackers or cornbread. I prefer it over most brands. Also available in a variety of soups. All tasty and ready-to-eat.

Retail price: Starting at $49.99 (8-pack)
Size: 16 ounces
Available: https://trueprimal.com and Amazon
