TastyKake Kandy Bar Kakes - Peanut Butter

I bet you will be able to guess the first item I tried from the Vox Box: the Tastykake Kandy Bar Kake! This is peanut butter flavored, and it tastes exactly like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup - and it really is Reese's Peanut Butter inside. It is about the size of a candy bar, but instead of having caramel or nougat filling, it has cake filling. The outside is a coating of chocolate and the middle is the peanut butter. Before I finished it I was able to snap a pic:


Pick this up to replace your traditional candy bar. I bet you can't eat just one!

Influenster Spring Vox Box

I am so thrilled to have received my first Vox Box from Influenster! This one had many different types of products to try, which I will be blogging about over the next few weeks. Check out a photo:


I can't wait to share my reviews!

Campbell's Go! Soup

One of my favorite product tests to date is for a new type of Campbell's soup, Campbell's Go! Soup. I got to try this for free through Smiley360. I tried several different kinds, and the one I recommend is Creamy Red Pepper with Smoked Gouda. This is similar to the traditional tomato soup, with a kick from the red pepper and a deliciously strong taste from the gouda.

First, take a look at the package:


One thing I love about this is it is slim enough to fit in a purse or cargo pants pocket. I have started keeping these on hand for when I go off-site for work. They are easy for me to carry around, and almost everywhere has a microwave. This has saved me from being forced to eat out!

To heat, there is a little tear at the top of the package, similar to Ready Rice if you have ever tried that. Then, it heats for about 2 minutes.

Finally, a nice serving size is produced!

Green Giant Veggie Chips - Healthier than Your Normal Chips

BzzAgent, one of my favorite product testing sites, just sent me something new to try: Green Giant Veggie Chips! They look and feel like regular chips, but have veggies in every serving. Here is a video of my first taste:


The ones I am trying in the video are the Zesty Cheddar chips. These chips are made with corn like regular chips, but the third and fourth ingredients are red and green bell peppers. If you are wanting something crunchy, but still want your veggies, this is a great way to do it. My husband and I added these to our dinner the night we got them, and we ate the whole bag! The second variety we tried was the Sweet Potato chips. The benefit to this flavor is that they are not made of corn, the main ingredient is sweet potatoes. We also ate this whole bag within two days! These chips are worth the price, give them a try!

I have a love of trying new products before they hit the market. I do this through companies like Buzzagent, Influenster, and Smiley360. Yesterday, I realized I had nine products at once! That is when I decided I needed to share those opinions with a larger audience. Over the next week, I am going to post the items I already have. After that, I will continue to post as I am accepted to try new products. I am always available to try something additional, just shoot me an e-mail.
