    Never bothered as there's no nutrition. If I was addicted to a particular flavour or something I might have been interested.

    Always read the ingredients to make sure this is a food that offers nutrition for your body.
    Be a conscious shopper. Ingredients for Walden foods peanut butter:
    Purified water, vegetable fiber, sea salt, corn starch, xanthan gum, natural roasted peanut flavor, natural peanut extract, caramel color, lactic acid, sodium benzoate (to preserve freshness) sucralose, FD&C yellow #5, #6.
    * Why not just eat a spoon full of natural peanut butter with lots of protein and vitamins?

    The salad dressings don't taste good, the mayo is gross also but if you like miracle whip you might think it's "okay". BBQ sauce is blah but gets the job done,

    I like the marshmallow fluff and I use the caramel sauce in my coffee from time to time to switch it up, the strawberry sauce is good too.

    Chemical Farms. Ha. I'm down with them though. I use the chocolate sauce and the caramel sauce. The pancake syrup is very good.

    Also, there are SOME calories. Labels are allowed to say 0 if a serving has 5 calories or less.

    I tried one of the salad dressings...I tossed it after the first try. I knew I was never going to touch it again. Instead, I use Annie's in Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette or Lite Gingerly Vinaigrette.

    I like them. They're good for when your deep in a cut or prep. Definitely an acquired taste though for some stuff. The benefit of using them is when you do treat yourself to an actual good salad at a restaurant, it tastes amazing cause you get used to the walden farms lol

    The only one I really like is the balsamic dressing. All the other ones taste nothing like what they're trying to imitate.

    Not a fan, they all taste too 'chemical' or something to me. I use plain red wine or cider vinegar if I want a 0 calorie dressing.

    So disgusting. The "peanut butter" may have scarred me for life.

    I'd never heard of them, but now I want to try a dressing (they're so expensive though!). I can ruin a salad with dressing, haha, so if any of these actually taste okay I'm definitely down. Doesn't sound promising taste-wise though so far.

    I like the maple syrup and honey dijon. If you search walden farms in the forums you will see multiple threads with people's reviews on them have been made if you want to get more input :)

    Their products are truly hit or miss. Some are okay and some are terrible and you never know which one it's going to be until you bite the bullet and actually try some of their products. Their Honey Dijon and Thousand Island salad dressings were truly horrid...had to throw those bottles away! The Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette was okay but overpoweringly sweet...so I won't be getting that one again. Loved the Pear & White Balsamic Vinaigrette. I wasn't terribly impressed with their Caramel dip...doesn't really taste like caramel but I still do use it from time to time. Their fruit spreads are okay, but only just. If you get one, make sure you dump the entire content of the fruit spread bottle into a bowl and beat the hell out of it with a mixer...otherwise, you'll never be able to "spread" the fruit spread because the base of the fruit spread is cellulose gel.

    Oh yes, forgot to add: I am in love with their pancake syrup though - best low-sugar pancake syrup I've tried to so far!
