CIBO Naturals Pestos

First to recommend

Description

CIBO Naturals pestos are super-tasty and made from healthy ingredients. Truth be told, I eat these pestos more as dips than as sauces for pasta. They taste great w/raw baby carrots or Finn Rye Crisps. If you like sardines (which I know are not for everyone, these pestos are a great compliment to them as well.)

Personally, I like the Classic Basil and Sun Dried Tomato Pestos the best. Both pestos are made w/olive oil (a key anti-inflammatory/anti-oxidant) and walnuts (which are the king of super healthy nuts)

I think these pestos make a great snack because if you dip a few crisps or carrots into them, you get filled up pretty quickly from all the oil/fat in them, but it is all healthy ingredients and you will probably eat less than if you nosh on more empty calorie but low fat stuff like potato chips

GNC Pro Performance - Mega MRP - Chocolate Drink Mix

First to recommend

Description

OK- this stuff is a bit of an acquired taste but I happen to really like it. It tastes like chocolate (which is not true of many "chocolate" sports drinks), it mixes easily, and it fills me up. Plus it seems to work and has lots of protein. I often drink one of these 20 min or so before surfing or beginning a climbing session and it keeps me going throughout.

Description

Custom-made chocolate is a fantastic idea. Bespoke bespoke is the way of the future for retail and I am glad to see it has come to chocolates. Get the world's fanciest anti-oxidants here. (via CoolHunting)

Australian Violet Crumble

10 people recommended this item

Description

almost certainly not particularly physically healthy, but sooo good for the tastebuds and emotional well-being ;-)

I live these candy bars- the chocolate is good but the flaky crumble honey-crisp is what makes them really special. Awesome, actually. Go on, try one, I promise you won't be disappointed (via saltimbanca)

Endangered Species Chocolate

Description

If you're going to indulge, you may as well save the planet while you're at it. I'm glad that, of all the endangered species in the world, eco-conscious chocolate is no longer one of them.

Altoids

Description

I love Altoids- all flavors are great but I am especially fond of peppermint and licorice. Great branding and a great product. Who knew mints could seem so high-end? (via mugirl)

Paul says this is the best stuff and I believe him. He does his homework so if you want good protein powders, check this stuff out. Good for muscle-building/repair post-enduro-fest or pull-down session. (via Paul)

Epoisses de Bourgogne by Di Bruno Bros.

2 people recommended this item

Description

Epoisses really reek and frankly look nasty. But, if you like your cheese plus forte, then you must try an Epoisse. Runny, messy, indulgent, and exotic. The best/real Epoisses are only quasi-legal in the USA because they are raw and imported. Worth the risk of getting on Homeland Security Terrorist Cheese Watchlist to have some of these (via Paul)

Lotte - Black Black Chewing Gum

4 people recommended this item

Description

Not sure that gum qualifies as healthy or unhealthy, but I do love Black Black. Caffeine load w/this gum for when you need to stay awake/get fired up. It has an unusual almost licorice-y or minty taste w/some clove thrown in. Not sure how to describe it but I like it. (via maki)
