Newman's Own Organics
For those of you who have been with us for awhile, you already know of our fondness for Newman's Own Organics...if not than you can see our other posts here and here. This is one of the first organic food companies we reviewed and they helped us see that organic doesn't have to mean blah : )
We decided that "Back to School Week" would be the perfect time to introduce or reintroduce the Newman's Own Organic brand to ya'll. Great snacks for in the kiddos lunches or for after school...and they are healthy...need we say more?!?!
Here are the products we received this time to try and our thoughts:
Mommy in GA: These were pretty addictive after you started eating them :) They were salty enough and also had a good crunch to them :)
Mommy in PA: We all agreed that the initial taste was a little off but once you started chewing they were pretty darn tasty. They could have used a little more salt. We loved the fact that they are larger than most pretzel sticks : )
Mommy in GA: The kids' were not huge fans of the fig newman's but, I personally really like them!! They taste as good as the ones with wheat and dairy as far as I am concerned!!
Mommy in PA: My daughter refused to try these because she has never liked anything fig. That's ok though because my son and I LOVE these! They are soft and chewy and have the perfect amount of filling. Hard to believe these are wheat and dairy free.
Mommy in GA: This was okay but, I am that person in front of you at the movies, asking for more butter please!! So I really wanted more butter other than that I thought it was pretty good. The only thing I noticed is these have to stay in the microwave a little longer than your other popcorn brands :)
Mommy in PA: I personally LOVED it and my hubby said it was pretty good. My son on the other hand didn't care for it. Just the right amount of flavor for me.
Mommy in GA: This one the kids' tried on accident and they were not fans!! I heard a lot of "Mommy can I put salt and butter on this? It tastes kind of like cardboard!!"
I then tried some and also agree it could have used salt and butter but, If those are things you are used to not having this is your perfect match!

Mommy in PA: This was a little bland for our taste buds but what do you expect from unsalted right?!?! So we decided to spice it up a bit with some cheese flavor and it was delicious. We all loved it that way.
Mommy in GA: I really liked these, they were a nice snack I could grab a handful and do what I was doing, they left me feeling kind of full so I wasn't going back all day for more!
Mommy in PA: My daughter ate almost the entire bag herself. She said they were good but wished the vanilla flavor had been a little bit stronger. My son and I also thought these were good but didn't get to eat very many.
Mommy in PA: My daughter was really excited about the green tea. She is the only hot tea drinker at my house (besides when my mother is here) so I allowed her to have it. She really liked it, said it was perfect with a little bit of milk and sugar.
Mommy in GA: My 8 year old was the only one brave enough to try these (I have a thing about raisins!!) She liked them , no wait they weren't good, hang on I'll try it again, I like them ....hang on not good. We are unsure even after 5 cookies where she stands firmly. She kept going back so they couldn't have been all bad!
Mommy in PA: My son and I were the only ones to try these. I handed him a piece and took one for myself...I watched his reaction. His eyes got really big and I asked him if they were good? He started shaking his head yes but then he put up his finger as if to tell me to wait a second. He was reacting to the aftertaste...very strong. I had to agree, the initial taste is great but the aftertaste is way too strong and just wasn't our thing.
Mommy in GA: This post is bittersweet for me. These were so good, I had to steal a bite from my 5 year old to even get a taste of these!! They went quick and were LOVED by all!!!
Mommy in PA: I LOVED these! And luckily neither of my kids wanted to try them so I got them all for myself : ) They are the perfect combination of mint and chocolate, who could ask for more?!
Mommy in GA:These were not our favorite product but, They are a good alternate for people that need the wheat and dairy free. They were ok enough that my kids' ate the entire package (we even had other snack options on hand!!)
Mommy in PA: Looks like chocolate...smells like chocolate...unfortunately didn't taste like chocolate : ( I guess it had something to do with the fact they are wheat and dairy free but nobody in my household liked these. Something just wasn't good with the aftertaste.
We were also super excited that Newman's Own Organics now even has printable coupons for some of their food items and even a rewards program for their pet food!
