Kroger Good For You CARBmaster

My starter package had a gift card in it so I could buy the product.
Love being a Buzzagent and getting to try things for free!




I got these with the gift card.  I really wanted to try the cinnamon roll but they were all out.

 

I think the Vanilla CARBmaster is Amazing.   I do not drink milk so I wasn't sure if I would like this or not.
The best way I can think to describe the Vanilla CARBmaster nonfat reduced sugar milk is that taste like a very mild milk shake.  When I tasted the milk it took me back to when I was a kid making home made ice cream from snow.  You take sugar, vanilla, and milk mixed with fresh snow.  That is what I think of when I drink this milk.
It has the consistency of a skim milk.  I can not drink whole milk and I have to ad water to 2% milk I buy for my son when I try to drink some.  This was just right for me.   I'm all about adding protein to my diet so when I saw 11g of protein I was super happy. 






I think the Caramel Spice Cake was okay.  In all fairness I wanted some chocolate when I tried it.  It did taste a lot like spice cake, I didn't taste the caramel.  Once you stir it up it has a nice smooth consistency.
I have tried the Carrot Cake and I didn't like it.  My son really liked it but I found it has a strange taste.  I kept looking to see if it had artificial sweeteners in it but I couldn't tell if it does.  That is what my mind kept telling me it tasted like.  I found this taste also in the Strawberry Pomegranate.  So far the only CARBmasters yogurt I like is the Black Forest Cake.   I love the fact that they are low in calories and carbs but I just don't think much of those yogurts taste myself.

So far the Pineapple Mango is the only Greek Nonfat yogurt I like the taste of.  The other have a strange taste to them I just cant put my finger on.   The Pineapple Mango had small chunks of pineapple and mango mixed in with the yogurt.   You do need to mix these because they are thick starting out. 


I give the CARBmasters vanilla milk a thumbs up, but the yogurts on still on the fence about.

Glade Expressions® Collection

My Buzzagent package had coupons for free starter kits for the Glade Expressions.


A little upset that Kroger Charges more than Walmart for these, and Walmart doesn't have a good selection.  I would have had to pay to try these products even after giving them the free coupon at Kroger.  The amount of the free coupon is max less than what Kroger charges.



The Pineapple oil diffuser kit is a little overwhelming.  It is a nice smell but very powerful.  I would suggest using this in a larger size room at least for the first day.  I put it in my master bath so the bedroom and the bathroom could share the fragrance.  I think the living room would have been better, since I have an open floor plan to the kitchen, dinning room, and call way.
The fragrance is mostly Pineapple, I can't make out the mango but it does smell fruity.
Happy to say that the smell does soften after the first day.  I now walk into my room and it smells very tropical.   Almost makes me think someone is making pina' coladas in my room. :) 
It has hidden my cats business very well.  I'm very happy with this product.





The Evening spray fragrance mist was nice and soft.  I really liked it as soon as I smelled it in the store.  I wish both came in the Evening scent.  It does a very good job covering up my stinky dogs when they come inside.

I would recommend both of these products for someone to try.

Johnsonville Chicken Sausage gets a thumbs up

I got a coupon for a package of Johnsonville Chicken Sausage in my Buzzagent package.



I really liked the chipoltie cheese.  It didn't taste very hot in my opinion.   I ate mine alone, no bun or sauces of any kind.
I also put it on a bun with some nacho cheese and jalapenos. 



I thought the Italian and cheese was a little heavy on the oregano.   I put some spaghetti sauce on the 2nd one as my condiment and thought it tasted wonderful.  I would think this would taste wonderful mixed in a pasta dish or just on a bun with the spaghetti sauce.   The rest of my family really liked the Italian.

I haven't tried the apple and the store didn't have the Cajun one, that saddened me.

I really do like these and I will be buying more.  If you like the sausages then I would recommend  these to you.  I couldn't tell by taste any difference that they were made from chicken.  When you look at them you can see it is different than the pork but eating them you don't feel a texture difference.
