Huggies Snug & Dry Diapers Review.
"Quality & value!" 2008-09-30
By A. Steinhoff (OHIO, USA)
I have been buying Huggies for years now. I have a 13 year old son, a 3 year old son and a one year old daughter. Obviously, the 13 year old does not wear diapers, but I used Huggies for him as well. Huggies have the best comfortable fit. I have never had a Huggies diaper allow a leak either. I have tried Pampers, Luvs, and store brands and they just don't do the job. For the price, value and convenience of buying a large box from Amazon, I gave these five stars! Huggies work great!
"Best deal" 2010-04-02
By Mark H. Housley (La Follette, TN USA)
At 25 cents a diaper you can't get much cheaper than this. Not to mention its the largest bulk size that I've been able to find. My wife loves having the 150 diapers at hand and I love saving all the money, my son however doesn't really care for them though since he just poops in them!
These are nearly 50% cheaper per diaper than a small pack you would pick up at a drug store or something.
"Cheaper than Sam's Club" 2008-09-08
By L. Dininni (Columbus, OH United States)
With Subscribe and Save, I am saving $7 over the cost of the same pack of the same diapers from Sam's Club. Quite a bargain!
"great diapers" 2008-09-05
By A. Taylor (Honolulu, HI United States)
Note size 1-2 are just size 1's. So don't buy more than two boxes to start. Wonderful diapers though!!
"At 3 month old, they didn't work, but at 1 1/2 they are by far the best." 2008-07-18
By Carol (Chatsworth, CA United States)
I was shocked to find that these work so well. I tried them when Jon was just a couple months old and I hated them. But a friend gave me a bunch when she went home and didn't want to cart all the diapers on the plane. They were even a size smaller than the Kirkland diapers I had been using. When he gets up in the morning with the Huggies, there is no wet waistband... even with the smaller size. The occasional red rash around the legs is completely gone. They fit beautifully and I'm so glad I tried them again. Jon does have chunky legs, compared to his cousin of the same age, so that may be a factor. If you haven't tried them in a while, it's worth another look.

Wedderspoon Raw Organic Manuka Honey Active 16+, 17.6-Ounce Jar Review.
"Manuka magick!" 2008-08-13
By Gilkissin (North Bend, WA)
This is an excellent quality Manuka Honey product. There is a bit of confusion over the UMF, MGO and OMA rating thing. UMF is the original and trademarked. MGO is a newer rating system that does not directly correlate to UMF but is accurate nonetheless. OMA is Wedderspoon's own rating system for determining activity within the raw honey. From my reading it appears to be pretty equitable to UMF. This honey is also USDA Organic certified (although that doesn't mean as much these days) to ensure that there are no additive ingredients to the product.
As for usage, I have two jars of this honey. I used the first on my wife's wounds following MOHS surgery for removal of skin cancer. The results were amazing and the surgeon and plastic surgeon both asked what we were using to allow the wounds to heal up so quickly with minimal scarring. There was also a staph infection as a result of the surgery that the honey took care of as well. It takes a bit of diligence to ensure daily dressing changes with fresh honey, but the results pay off. I ended up pre-soaking gauze with the honey and sandwiching between two layers of plastic wrap to create more manageable "bandages". These were used by my wife when she traveled in addition to direct application to the cleaned wound bed.
Basic process: Clean wound with Hydrogen Peroxide, follow with colloidal silver in nebulizer, then drizzle honey into wound and cover wound with pre-soaked gauze pad. The last bit is to cover the pre-soaked pad with a waterproof dressing like a Telfa-style pad to reduce oozing onto clothing/bedding. Care must be taken in finding adhesives that do not irritate the skin too much with the frequent dressing changes. There are also larger waterproof wound dressings with silver-impregnated that might be a good combination. Main idea is to minimize air-space and keep honey in constant contact with wound bed.
If this all sounds new, do some research on honey for wound care at the University of Waikato in New Zealand courtesy of Dr. Peter Molan.
Note, this honey is not "sterilized" via gamma radiation (which is not supposed to reduce activity in the honey like pasteurization) but is still highly effective. Honey is resistant to most any spoilage due to its activity and the sterilization process is just an extra step some honey manufacturer's take (Comvita or Summerglow) to be able to sell their products as medical devices in the US. It will allow the honey to be FDA-approved. Again, as I understand this is not a requirement but is done largely to gain approval for medical usage in hospitals and clinics. Check out Medihoney dressings. BTW, I have also used this topically on oral canker sores with great effect! Sores dissappeared in days and not weeks! Applied directly 3 x day.
Lastly, the other jar I use for tea and even coffee and it is delicious. It has a strong floral taste and finish (as would be expected) and is alittle more viscous than other Manuka honeys I have tried.
I have tried nearly all Manuka honey brands from NZ as I visit often and find this to be a great option for those of us who need a high-quality active raw Manuka honey without paying a load for shipping up the stuff from down under. Or you can just ask a friend heading that way to bring you back some :P
"Manuka honey, nature's perfect food!" 2008-07-02
By 2Lyons (Columbus, IN)
I've been eating domestic raw honey for a while now to soothe my stomach, but turned to the "stronger" (and obviously more expensive) manuka honey after hearing about its healing capabilities.
When I received the Wedderspoon organic manuka honey, I opened it up, and smelled its interesting aroma. It almost has a hint of antiseptic smell to it, along with the sweet honey scent. And it tastes like it smells, but you do get used to it, and it is absolutely delicious. It is thinner and runnier than "Really Raw" brand american honey, so I find myself eating it faster, which is fine except I am about to run out shortly after buying it. But for me, an admittedly starving artist who is notoriously thrifty, it is still definitely worth the money.
So what has it done for me?
It calms my heartburn, helps my digestion, reduces nausea associated with IBS, and I've used it on a skin infection with great success. All while being completely natural and delicious.
I am very pleased with this honey - if you've read about the benefits of manuka honey you will be pleased to find that it does everything they says it does [and more].
I will be ordering one more jar from Amazon, before moving to New Zealand at the end of the summer, where I will be quite excited to buy it locally!
"Drs could learn something here" 2009-03-30
By frank jones (california)
I purchased this honey with the intention of healing my stomach which has been in a shambles for 20 years. I've been on every Rx antacid known, the last being Aciphex which is very strong and costs me $167 for 30 pills with insurance. I tried this honey after reading of its capabilities but believing that it was just a high priced scam, but I'm desperate for releif so I spent the $28. 3 days after eating 1 tsp on bread per day my stomach pain was gone. I couldn't beleive it. I'm still waiting for it to return but it's been a couple of weeks now and I feel great. In the past I've had to give up coffee, beer, spicy food, chocolate, etc. and still had gnawing pain. If you have stomach problems try this. I'm going to tell my Dr. about it.
"Listen up everybody! Do you have Excema?" 2009-06-01
By M. Spearman (MN)
I buy on Amazon a lot and for some reason, I kept seeing this honey. I read the reviews and decided to buy some for my sister who has some kind of skin condition on her hand. Her skin was rough, red, scaly, itchy and she has had it for about a year. Sound like ECZEMA???? She has tried prescriptions and over the counter stuff with little success. I bought this and brought it to her and I said "You are going to think I am crazy, but this honey is going to heal your hand." She told me that within 18 hours, the swelling had gone down significantly. Within 5 days, it was much, much better. And, in about 2 weeks, it was practically healed, except for her skin looking a little different color due to the trauma to it over the year. This stuff is amazing!! She just put honey on it and covered it with a big bandage.
Oh, and btw, who cares if it is a plastic container. You can't have it all.
"Wouldnt be without my Manuka Honey" 2009-03-15
By Jessie from VA (Fairfax, VA)
I have(had!) terrible GERD from years of Fosomax/Boniva (my "pre" education years). Also contracted horrible yeast infection from way too many antibiotics from narrowly-focused Western medicine doctors.
This Wedderspoon honey solved both of these persistent, painful problems. It cleared up my eczema-like patches (I believe these were from yeast infection) with no scarring. I tried EVERYthing else, nothing helped and I suffered from terrible itching until I found Manuka Honey. Whenever I eat something that I think may cause a GERD flareup, I take a couple teaspoons of Manuka Honey before bed or after a big meal, and no problems occur.
Tastes wonderful. BTW, I also give my Border Collie a 1/2 tsp. every morning. He loves it and it seems to have solved his sensitive stomach problem.

Tully's Coffee Kona Blend for Keurig Brewers, 24-Count K-Cups (Pack of 2) Review.
"Wonderful!!!" 2007-09-22
By Tiziana Ruff (Arizona)
Since we started using the Keurig coffee machine, we have tried all of the coffee on the market including making our own mixture. We are coffee drinkers. We have in our home a professional cappuccino machine, I mean the huge one you would find in a coffee shop or Italian cafe'. We decided that Tully's is the flavor for us, rich, strong and beautiful (every woma's dream huh?) Kidding aside it is a very good coffe. Our favorite is still Kona.
"Tully's Coffee Kona Great" 2009-01-06
By STM
I have been enjoying the Kona blend from Tully's for the past year. It is in my opinion the best cup for the money.
"DELICIOUS!!!" 2008-03-19
By lucysnow (Seattle, WA)
I've tried a lot of K Cup Coffee and this was my absolute favorite, it had a delicious medium flavor to the beans, I was instantly addicted. Very tasty! I highly recommend this!
"GREAT" 2010-05-28
By sharall58 (FLORIDA)
I love this coffee, compared to the others and I've tried quite few this is the best. Maybe I'm a medium roast person and didn't know it but this is really good, smells good, taste good and the price is right too.
"Great medium roast." 2009-04-27
By Lori Sulli (Chicago, IL)
Tully's is my favorite K-cup brand and this Kona blend is a great medium roast. Is it going to be as good as fresh ground and brewed Kona? Maybe not, but most of these K-cups aren't going to match that experience. This Kona K-cup is going to give a very good cup of coffee and you can't beat the price.

Timothy's World Coffee, Italian Blend for Keurig Brewers, 24-Count K-Cups (Pack of 2) Review.
"Delicious Medium Bodied Coffee" 2008-10-29
By Sue Hupp (Cascade Locks, Oregon United States)
This is a delicious medium bodied coffee that leaves only the lingering taste of the wonderful brew. You can make it stronger by selecting the smaller cup on your Keurig Brewing System.
The Subscribe and Save is the way to go. Not only saving you money but delivered to your door. Much cheaper here than Target or Costco.......Love it!
"excellent" 2008-10-12
By Natasha Jennings (NJ USA)
This is my favorite unflavored K Cup coffee. I've tried many brands and flavors, and this one comes out on top. It doesn't taste watered down like some of them do. It has an excellent, medium-bodied flavor.
"best and smoothest coffee" 2009-04-03
By Denise Monteiro-luken
We just got a Keurig brewer for Christmas and had tried several different k-cup brands that came with it. Timothy's World Coffee, Italian Blend was one of the samples and we loved it! Now we have it sent to our home very two months via Amazon. Great coffee with a very smooth, but full-bodied flavor!!!
"Just Try it and you will agree it is one of the better Kcups" 2009-01-05
By Christopher Walker (Dubai, UAE)
I have tried at least 20 different Kcups. This is definitely one of the better ones. Very nice medium bold taste not bitter and very consistent. Give it a try and see for yourself.
"Simply the best" 2008-11-26
By J. Roperti (Reading, PA USA)
As I have said before, this company gets it right. This blend is "simply the best." It is smooth and enjoyable right down to the last sip. Only bad part is you will want to drink more.

Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Raw Blue Agave, 44 Ounce Bottle (Pack of 2) Review.
"Amazing flavor!" 2009-04-30
By J. Stenulis (Raleigh, NC)
Anyone with or WITHOUT insulin issues should use this in place of table sugar or artificial sugars! It taste like a good maple syrup, with half the calories and a very low glycemic load. I use this in my hot tea, over fresh fruit, in baking recipes, etc. It has endless possibilities.
As for price, you cannot beat the price here on Amazon! I order this two pack for the price of 8 bottles at Whole Foods. Try a smaller bottle from WF and if you like it, come back here to Amazon to save BIG.
"Great for everyday use!" 2009-04-13
By Robert T. Greenawald
My wife and I have been using agave nectar in the place of sugar for over a year now and we absolutely love it. We typically use it in our coffee and tea, and it truly have a great flavor and is very sweet, which is great as it doesn't take very much to sweeten things...
I would recommend this to anyone who uses sugar and would like to try an alternative to table sugar.
"Fabulous taste and price!" 2009-06-29
By B. Center (San Francisco, CA USA)
Organic Raw Agave is usually way over priced. Since I use it almost exclusivity as a sweetener in my raw food prep, I found it price-challenging when buying it at my local markets. Then I found this offering on Amazon.com. I get it auto-shipped each month, so I don't have to worry about running out. Now I pay a fraction of the price I used to pay. I did a taste comparison and it tastes exactly the sames as the pricier ones.
"Great Product" 2009-05-30
By Doulos Theou (United States)
Firstly, the product itself - good taste, excellent sweetener, easy to use. It is sort of expensive, so I only buy it on sale. I prefer honey for most sweetening applications, but the agave nectar is actually easier to use, as it is somewhat less viscous and dissolves more easily.
On another note, I have never had trouble with the packaging, which is often a problem with gooey liquid items from Amazon. There are seals under the bottle tops, plus shrink wrap over the tops, and the bottles also come shrinkwrapped together. As always, be careful in ordering liquid products through the mail. A rotting box of leaking goo is the bane of the delivery worker and an unwelcome addition to your doorstep.
Thirdly, this product comes in other sizes/packaging. I recommend exploring all options to get the best price, and consider Subscribe and Save as well. We can use regular shipments here at our house anyway, since we seldom use granulated sugar.
"A Wholesome, Healthy Sweetner" 2009-07-09
By Michael Rimar (Indianapolis, USA)
How sweet it is! Diabetics rejoice! This is a sweetner with us in mind. No more spiking, crashing, burning! Being raw and vegan make this additionally desirable and great for everybody! ENJOY!!!

YummyEarth Organic Lollipops, Assorted Flavors, 5-Pound Bag Review.
"TASTE AWESOME!!!" 2009-04-23
By Melissa P. (Chicago, IL USA)
I LOVE these lollipops, and have never tried a flavor I didn't like. I definitely appreciate the lack of high fructose corn syrup and artificial colors when I'm looking for an occasional treat to satisfy my sweet tooth!
There is a nice mix of flavors, but for those who are picky, they are not evenly distributed. Of the 330 lollipops I received in my 5-lb. bag,
64 (19%) Tart Sour Apple
58 (18%) Googly Grape
39 (12%) Mango Tango
32 (10%) Strawberry Smash
28 (8%) Ginger Zest
25 (8%) Wet-face Watermelon
24 (7%) Pomegranate Pucker
22 (7%) Cheeky Lemon
17 (5%) Orange Squeeze
11 (3%) Blood Orange Cocktail

2 (<1%) Tooberry Blueberry
"flavor ratios - NEW and EXCLUSIVE for Amazon (but not for "fulfilled by Amazon")" 2009-10-22
By Rob Wunder (YummyEarth HQ - Ridgewood, NJ)
UPDATED 09-02-10 - We hear you loud and clear, amazon lolly lovers!!! We have changed to an almost even assortment of flavors per 5lb bulk bag and Counter Bin EXCLUSIVELY FOR AMAZON so make sure you are buying from Amazon directly (it will say "Ships from and sold by Amazon" under IN STOCK). Sorry, the assortment is still random when buying this item via a 3rd party, such as DAB Nutrition "fulfilled by Amazon". Please note that the assortment is ALMOST even as compared to a completely random flavor assortment. Your feedback drives this company from ingredient requests and allergy needs to flavor requests to flavor ratios. We appreciate your feedback and hope that you know that we are listening. I am truly sorry for posting this note here with a 5 star review since I do not want anyone to think that we are trying to mislead anyone with a "fake" product review, but I could not really figure out any other way to communicate this to our Amazon friends. Thank you again for your wonderful reviews!
"Great Allergy-Free & Tasty" 2006-10-18
By Y. Young
Dealing with an allery to corn isn't easy, but these lollipops sure make it seem a lot easier. They're wonderfully flavored, organic, and made by a company who honestly cares about its customers. These are a great find and a staple of my house. They're just awesome, its hard to believe they're corn-free.
"Best Lollipops EVER" 2006-10-22
By I. Moss (Portland, OR)
I am a BIG fan of lollipops, and I have to report that these are, hands-down, the best I've ever tasted. The flavors are original and tasty, and the shape of the pop is just right. And, I don't have to worry about ingesting the great unknown yellow #5 or red #2. Go Yummy Earth! I can't wait to see what these guys come out with next!
"GREAT LOLLIES + FAIRLY VIRTUOUS" 2006-11-24
By Marge Teilhaber (Fort Lee, NJ)
Can't go wrong here. Intense flavor and impressive ingredients. I love 'em and everyone I give them to loves them. Get a load of these ingredients: organic evaporated cane juice, organic tapioca syrup (no sulfites added), non-GMO citric acid (from non-GMO sugar beet), organic & natural flavors* (watermelon, pomegranate, orange oils, lemon oils, raspberry), organic & natural colors (red cabbage, purple carrots). * = Cheeky Lemon, Wet-Face Watermelon, Pomegranate Pucker, Orange Squeeze, & upcoming Mango Tango flavor contain some amount of orange or lemon or citrus oils (0.58% of the natural flavor formula of watermelon is derived from lemon oil). Safflower oil is in the Wet-Face Watermelon and upcoming Mango Tango. HOLY COW!!! AND THEY'RE REALLY REALLY GOOD!

Diedrich Coffee Variety Pack of Medium, Full and Dark Roasts for Keurig Brewers, 22-Count K-Cups (Pack of 2) Review.
"Excellent Variety" 2007-08-06
By Robin M. Lee (Bay Area, CA)
I purchase variety packages for our work coffee mess - this is one of my personal favorites. Has all the major popular blends; Sumatra, Columbian, French Roast, House Paradiso & a Columbian Decaf. These are all excellent blends all packaged together - you can't go wrong with this one.
"Good variety and great taste" 2007-01-18
By J. Villeneuve (Newtown, CT USA)
The Diedrich K-Cups are a good option to get a little variety in your coffee routine without paying for 5 different 25-count boxes. The variety in "boldness" allows you to select the coffee you are in the mood for. Having decaf around is always nice for an evening cup (Bailey's anyone?).
I found most to be a little weak with the "travel mug" setting on the B60. They are all full and rich with the 7.25oz mug setting.
I'm going five stars because of the variety. I wasn't a huge fan of the Sumatra, but my wife liked it. So you get variety and marital harmony in one box!
"great bunch of coffees!" 2007-03-22
By E. Young (CA)
This was the best group I've bought so far ...all of the flavors are unique and smooth ...I especially liked the decaf choice for when I want to have a cup in the evening. In fact, I logged on today to puchase this item again.

Twinings English Breakfast Tea, K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 25-Count Boxes (Pack of 2) Review.
"Highly drinkable" 2007-03-02
By Kurt A. Johnson (North-Central Illinois, USA)
Twinings was founded in London, England in 1706, and has a long and respected tradition of producing only the finest of teas. English Breakfast tea is a mixture of black teas from Sri Lanka, which are blended to produce a smooth yet flavorful tea. Though often served during breakfast, this tea tastes excellent all day long.
OK, let's get down to brass tacks - this is another great tea. Harder to over-steep than some of the teas I have known, it consistently produces a smooth and highly drinkable cup. Highly conventional in its taste, English Breakfast tea has a robust flavor that stands up well to lemon and milk, which makes it a favorite among those who like to accessorize their tea. Plus, I must say that this tea is wonderful iced - add some lemon and sugar, and you've got the right tea for a hot afternoon!
And that's my review. If you want an excellent all-round tea, hot or iced, one that goes well with any food, then English Breakfast tea is for you. If you want tea from a great tea producer, them Twinings is for you. I highly recommend Twinings' English Breakfast tea to all, even those not normally into tea drinking. (Or, perhaps especially to those not normally into tea drinking!)
"Great Tasting Tea" 2007-09-01
By Barry Graham (Washington, DC Metro)
This is like having old fashioned brewed tea. This really does make a perfect cup of tea, even for a former Englishman that is now an American!
"A great tea!" 2009-03-29
By Craig Williams (GA United States)
This is a really good tasting tea and I should know! Having lived all over the world I love many English teas and this definitely great. I brew each k-cup twice into a big mug and it works well.
You can also brew these twice (medium) cup so the price works well.
"my favorite" 2009-01-21
By S. Rappaport
I am a keurig k cup daily user and this is my favorite tea kcup. I am a loyal twinings tea lover and I am thrilled that amazon had these available! I will buy them again! Hope amazon adds more k cups (coffee, tea, hot chocolate) to its product list!
"Perfect cup of tea." 2009-08-13
By Amr E. Etman
In the afternoon, tea is my favorite. I brew it using the medium size cup button on Keurig machine. It tastes very good. Not bitter, and not very light either. I am back to Amazon to buy more of this brand right now. Even english breakfast tea is different by the company who packs it. I like twinings the most.
Try it and you won't regret it.

Lavazza Super Crema Espresso Whole Bean Coffee, 2.2-Pound Bag Review.
"Great for Cap" 2009-11-12
By Scott (Apex, NC)
I have recently tried "Lavazza Tierra! Espresso 100% Arabica " which is great but a little too mild for me. I make cappuccino, not espresso, and the SuperCrema is better for this. It does have more caffeine then the pure Arabica Tierra and is more robust, more body and much more crema. Actually, on the few occasions that I do have espresso I would lean to the Tierra as it is lighter. I use a Pasquini Livia Auto. My vote is SuperCrema for Cap and Tierra for espresso (Tierra if you just want less caffine and a lighter full flavor). So, get both. Here at Amazon the price is great.
"Whole Bean, 2.2 Pound" 2009-08-18
By Sam G. Mubara (California, USA)
I used it to make French press coffee. I rate it as excellent and better than the more expensive %100 kona coffee beans. The French press tastes exactly like the coffee served in European airports as they use the same beans. It is a matter of your palate. My son prefers the Kona beans. I am lucky in a way to like the lavazza more. Compare $19.09 for 2.2 pounds of lavazza for $29 for one pound of Kona.
"Great crema" 2009-09-20
By William E. Fisher III (South Carolina USA)
This is a great bean for a semi-automatic machine. We have a Jura-Capresso and adjust it to a fine grind with this bean. The beans produce an espresso with a thick crema and a smooth, almost chocolaty ending. This brand can be found at coffee shops all over Italy and Europe in general.
"Supercrema Good!" 2009-08-04
By TrailRunR (Western Massachusetts, USA)
I always come back to this blend. Although it is great to try all the designer espresso blends I just keep coming back to Lavazza Supercrema, it just makes a consistently good cup of coffee. I generally do 3 or so cap's a day and maybe a straight shot of espresso after dinner and either way it just tastes good all the time. Not to strong, smooth flavor. In my book it ranks up there with the best. I run it through the Mazzer and Rancilio Ms. Sylvia for a great cappuccino. Enjoy.
"The best! Ruined me for other coffees." 2009-09-28
By Desert Rat (Tucson, AZ, USA)
Great smooth flavor, terriffic crema. The best, and the price at Amazon was slightly lower than what I had been paying at an online coffee site.

"POD People" 2008-02-25

I do like the Dark Roast best. My only complaint is there aren't enough pods per package. Only 9 cups of coffee per bag when you use double pods for a larger cup of java as I do. I"m almost out of coffee again!
"I've become a coffee snob" 2008-03-03
By J. Mcilvenny (Bangor, Michigan USA)
I've been using my Senseo coffee maker for few years now. I love it. I use different flavors for different moods.It's also great for parties as everyone can special order. This coffee is much better than average coffee. It is not quite Starbucks but sure runs a close second place to the cafe drinks.

Timothy's World Coffee, Colombian Decaffeinated for Keurig Brewers, 24-Count K-Cups (Pack of 2) Review.
"Good Coffee Good Price No Waste" 2008-11-22
By Dr. Albert Alba
Timothy's Colombian Decaffeinated is a good tasting coffee for a good price. The savings are even better if you sign up for the auto renew program. Also, we have found that you can use each cup twice. Therefore it's like getting twice the quantity for the money. I checked with the Keurig company and they said by processing the cups for two cups of coffee or tea will not hurt the machine.
Best, Al
"Smooth is best" 2008-11-30
By L. Petrie (Portland, OR USA)
I am becoming a real fan of the Timothy's products. This Colombian decaf is flavorful and very smooth and it does not become weak at the 7 oz setting. There is no bitterness. You would never know that it was decaf.

We have changed to an almost even assortment of flavors per 5lb bulk bag and Counter Bin EXCLUSIVELY FOR AMAZON so make sure you are buying from Amazon directly (it will say "Ships from and sold by Amazon" under IN STOCK). Sorry, the assortment is still random when buying this item via a 3rd party, such as DAB Nutrition "fulfilled by Amazon". Please note that the assortment is ALMOST even as compared to a completely random flavor assortment. Your feedback drives this company from ingredient requests and allergy needs to flavor requests to flavor ratios. We appreciate your feedback and hope that you know that we are listening. I am truly sorry for posting this note here with a 5 star review since I do not want anyone to think that we are trying to mislead anyone with a "fake" product review, but I could not really figure out any other way to communicate this to our Amazon friends. Thank you again for your wonderful reviews!
"These are absolutely delightful. MMMMMmmmm! ^.^ -- Worth every penny!!" 2007-04-04
By B. Estorga (beautiful California, USA)
These have become my absolute favorite candy, second only to chocolate! I took a few handfuls to share at work today and all of my coworkers loved them too.
The first positive thing I noticed about these after they arrived is that the serving size is * 3 * lollies, not just * 1 * -- not that I'm advocating overconsumption of candy, but if you have kids it's good to know that they can eat 3 of these without even getting close to a hundred calories!
The Pomegranate and Berry flavors are traditional "red" flavor, only without the disgusting quality that most regular "red" lollies have of being made out of sugar and synthetic dyes. Mouth-watering!
The Lemon flavor is VERY lemony -- so much so that it tastes like you're chewing and sucking on a real lemon, lemon peel included. At times it can be a little overpowering, but if you love real lemon flavor you'll love this.
The Orange flavor is a typical orange flavor but pleasantly so.
The Watermelon is very similar to the Jolly Rancher ( Jolly Rancher Hard Candies, Assorted Flavors, 7-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12) ) sort of Watermelon, but much, much tastier, with a very clean finish. It is very much like licking a real slice of watermelon.
The package I received also included a mango flavor, much to my surprise! This, also, is fantastic.
Overall I HIGHLY recommend these. They are well worth the price, the package is HUGE, the quality is excellent, and they're natural and organic to boot!

If you have kids sensitive to food colorings or are just trying to avoid artificial ingredients, these are great treats to have. My children have only recently made the adjustment from commercial, artificially flavored and colored candies. So, they are picky about organic treats. These lollipops have passed the test with my eight children. Their quality control seems to be pretty good (something I don't always see with organic foods), and the flavors and colors are really nice (not boring or tasteless). I keep these on hand to trade for candies others give them that they are not able to eat (due to sensitivities with food coloring).

I bought these for my niece who is autistic and she is on a strict gluten free, dairy free, dye free diet. She loves these! and so do the other kids who are not on this strict diet.

I ordered two of these containers. One for the office and one for home. Everyone raves about the flavors. Needless to say two wasn't enough. I'm in the process of ordering the bags now. These lollipops are simply the best!!!! Yummy Earth rocks!!!

Timothy's World Coffee, Midnight Magic K-Cups for Keurig Brewers, 50-Count K-Cups Review.
"The BEST extra bold K-cup out there!" 2009-07-28
By L. Chun (Bay Area, CA USA)
My wife and I love this k-cup. We've tested all the extra bold dark roasts out there. In fact, we did blind taste tests and pitted Timothy's Midnight Magic vs. Green Mountain EB Dark Magic, Gloria Jeans EB Black Gold, Van Houtte's Eclipse EB, Green Mountain EB Espresso Blend, Green Mountain EB Sumatran Reserve, Timothy's EB Parisian Nights, Coffee People EB Organic, Coffee People Jet Fuel, Coffee People EB French Roast, Tully's EB French Roast and Tully's EB Italian Roast. Yes, we honestly tested them all. Many of the other contenders are fine coffees in their own right and without direct comparison to Midnight Magic, they'd be a fine k-cup. But when compared directly with Timothy's Midnight Magic, we found we chose it every time in blind taste tests. It amazed me when my wife picked it every single time. We *do* note that Coffee People's Jet Fuel tasted very similarly to Midnight Magic. All else being equal, we'd purchase which ever one is on sale: CP Jet Fuel or Timothy's Midnight Magic.
There is no way you'd be let down by this k-cup if you *like* extra bold, dark roasted coffee. It's just perfect!
A must buy for Keurig owners!
"Best we found to a good espresso cup" 2009-08-25
By John Lightowler (West Linn, OR)
I take coffee very seriously so when I bought my Keurig, I doubted if any K-cup would come close to a real espresso taste. So I tried a large variety of K-cup coffees, usually by buying the variety packs of dark roasts from different vendors, then selecting a few K-cups I liked. In the end,I believe Midnight magic X Bold is the best.
Now my family easily drinks 50 cups a month, so we opted for the Subscribe & Save program bringing the cost to $17.10 or about 34 cents per cup. This is the lowest price we have found and we LOVE the coffee.
"Great Coffee!!" 2009-08-01
By I love to read! (Gilbert, Az.)
Thank you to the first reviewer. Because of your recommendation we purchased this coffee. It is great as we also like a cup of good, strong coffee. 'We will purchase it again. Best price I've found too.
"Probably the best "extra bold" K-Cup" 2009-08-10
By Ariel Benzakein (Boston, MA USA)
This is one of the best tasting K-Cups available for the Keurig and Breville brewers, and definitely the best of the "Extra Bold" flavors. Other runners up are Coffee People's "Jet Fuel" (which as another reviewer noted, is very similar to this one), Timothy's "Parisian Nights," and Emeril's "Big Easy Bold".

By James P. Fox (putnam,ny)
Timothy's midnight magic is perfect for a strong coffee drinker like myself.I
like all of the bold flavors of the k cups,the other medium types I find too weak.
this brand will delight you.
