My husband and I were HUGE fans of the Revive (Purple) line and its great unisex scent, but the new Tree Tingle line made me feel better about the loss of Revive. The scent is primarily peppermint and the ingredients are overwhemingly natural. The conditioner, in fact, is just water and a lot of plant extracts and my (very long) hair is really soft and silky after a week of using the conditioner.

I love sweet potato fries and I've tried various brands from Whole Foods and most came out pretty limp, but these, while not as crisp as frying would make them, had the most amazing flavor and almost tasted like dessert. I can see dipping them in a little butter and syrup to take that a bit farther, or playing off their sweetness with a savory aioli.

I really, really like this, but it's hardly low fat - there are about 82 grams of fat per bag and the bag would feed three adults at most, unless you were mixing it into something like stirfry.

I LOVE garlic and put it in almost everything I cook, but other than a few real hard-core garlic heads, who eats raw garlic? I've had garlic fries at sporting events and that garlic is roasted. This stuff is RAW. We had to throw everything away and then throw out the trash bag because I dumped the whole packet onto the fries. Needless to say, there was little cuddling that night.

I appear to be in the minority, but I think these rock. The secret is you HAVE to brown them after boiling so they get a nice crispy exterior. I've used a combo of butter and olive oil, but last time I just used TJ's olive oil cooking spray and they still browned up nicely. It takes a while, at least 4 minutes on each side after boiling. The pepper elevatates these entire. I lived in Russia in junior high and wish they'd used more pepper. Plain potato got boring real fast!

My fiancee thinks this is the best enchilada sauce I've ever used. Last time I slow-cooked the marinated tri-tip TJs sells and then shredded it and used the Truly Homemade corn tortillas and cotija cheese along with this sauce for enchiladas to die for.
