Review: Steve's Paleo Goods PaleoChef Ketchup

I've mentioned in my prior Steve's Paleo Goods reviews that they were kind enough to send me a box of free samples.  Within that box was a product that I've been kind of terrified to review because of my prior experiences with people trying to make ketchup more "healthy" or what not.  Now, I've mentioned before that I have an unrequited love for ketchup.  It's one of my favorite things in the world and I'll put it on anything...eggs, fries, fried chicken, pizza crust, hot dogs, hamburgers, crackers, vegetables, eat it straight out of a spoon, etc.  Basically, my ketchup love knows no bounds.  Anyway, past bad experiences and my high esteem for ketchup made me fearful of this bottle of Steve's Paleo Goods PaleoChef Ketchup, but ultimately life is about overcoming your fears, so here we are with today's review.  This bottle comes in at twelve ounces and has 24 servings (a half ounces per serving obviously) and each serving comes in at 15 calories.

Review: Steve's PaleoGoods Cinnamon Paleokrunch Cereal

So, the charity of Steve (as opposed to The Tao of Steve) continues again today as I embark on another Steve's PaleoGoods review that came out of my wonderful sampler pack that they so graciously delivered to my front door.  Today's review is of something I have a real problem with:  granola.  It's not a problem because I don't like it or I'm allergic to it or whatever.  It's a problem because I'm ADDICTED to granola.  I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it.  My favorite thing about staying in hotels is the free breakfast in the morning so that I can go down there and DESTROY their granola.  And if you don't think I've used enough all capital letter words yet, I will tell you that when I'm at a hotel that doesn't have granola, I am really, really SAD.  Anyway, today's addiction (or review) is of this 7.5 ounce bag of Steve's PaleoGoods Cinnamon Paleokrunch Cereal that was sent along to me.  It's got five servings in the bag and simple math tells this math wizard that is 1.5 ounces per serving.  Each serving also has 209 calories and seven grams of protein and to top that all off, it's gluten free and paleo.  Yahoo Mountain Dew (does anyone else actually say that or have you at least heard it?)!

Review: Steve's PaleoGoods Dried Strawberries

Since I'm a celebrity now and get interviewed for other blogs, I feel I'm fully entitled to brag about the vast benefits of writing for this blog.  So, let me brag for a minute about how great it is to get free sampler packs from food manufacturers.  People view me as an influencer and since I'm such a great writer...actually, I'm bored with this bragging already...back to the regular format.  Anyway, a representative from Steve's PaleoGoods reached out to me and about three business days later a sampler pack arrived on my doorstep.  Today's review is the first out of that pack as I'm taking a look at this package of Steve's PaleoGoods Dried Strawberries.  Now, this may seem like something boring to review, but I'll get to why I chose to put this on the site in a couple moments (other than to thank Steve's for the free products).  So, this package is 6.0 ounces and within it are six one ounce servings and each serving is 93 calories.

Review: Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Berries No Gluten Paleo Bar

Some people might be able to argue that Elisabeth Hasselbeck has invaded the hearts, minds and souls of our life.  I would argue that she's invaded my local Marsh grocery store as I've picked up yet another bar for review.  This time, I'll be taking a look at the Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Berries No Gluten Paleo Bar that I was able to get at that aforementioned Marsh for $2.49.  This bar is 1.50 ounces and 180 calories with four grams of protein.  It's gluten free and paleo as well, so there you have it.

Review: Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Nuts No Gluten Paleo Bar

My last (and first) NoGii review led off talking about how polarizing a character Elisabeth Hasselbeck is, so the fact that the bar was so bland and boring was amusing to me.  Maybe I'm a glutton for punishment, but I decided that NoGii should get another shot on the blog in search of perhaps a better experience than I had already had.  Everyone has a boring product every now and then, right?  Why would NoGii be any different?  So, it is with that perhaps sense of unfounded optimism that I picked up this Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Nuts No Gluten Paleo Bar at Marsh for $2.49.  It's 1.50 ounces and 200 calories with five grams of protein.

Review: Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Tropical Fruit No Gluten Paleo Bar

Elisabeth Hasselbeck is quite the polarizing character.  Survivor, The View, etc.  It would only be natural that someone that polarizing would make a nutrition bar, right?  Okay, maybe that isn't the case.  However you feel about her, I was at least interested to try out another product, no matter who was associated with it and that led me to make this purchase of an Elisabeth Hasselbeck's NoGii Nuts About Tropical Fruit No Gluten Paleo Bar that I picked up at Marsh for $2.29.  The bar itself is 1.5 ounces and consists of 190 calories and four grams of protein.  It's also gluten free, so it's got another tick in the health column in addition to being paleo (natural).
