We love to try new foods. Some are great. Some don’t measure up and some become staples in our kitchen. See what you think.

Nona Lim makes Non-GMO Verified, dairy-free, and Certified Gluten-Free Heat & Sip soup cups. Nona Lim’s mission is to produce foods that are closest to whole by responsibly sourcing ingredients and cooking the soups in small batches without preservatives or additives.

Heat & Sip soups are inspired by Asian flavors and are sold refrigerated in 10-ounce single serve cups designed with a sipping lid for an on-the-go light lunch or a drinkable snack.

Carrot Ginger Soup is vegan and has 90 calories, 3 grams of fat, 2 grams of protein, 14 grams of carb (3 of which are fiber and 5 grams sugar), 260 milligrams of sodium, and 12,500 IUs of vitamin A (250% of your daily need).

Miso Broth is vegetarian and has 35 calories, a trace of fat and protein, 3 grams of carb (with a trace of fiber and sugar), 360 milligrams of sodium, and 1,250 IUs of vitamin A (25% of your daily need).

Thai Curry & Lime Bone Broth has 25 calories, 6 grams of fat, 3 grams of protein, 4 grams of carb (with a trace of fiber and 2 grams sugar), 470 milligrams of sodium, and 1,250 IUs of vitamin A (25% of your daily need).

Vietnamese Pho Bone Broth has 25 calories, no fat, 3 grams of protein, 4 grams of carb (with a trace of fiber and 2 grams sugar), 510 milligrams of sodium, and 1,250 IUs of vitamin A (25% of your daily need).

Tomato Thai Basil Soup is vegan and has 45 calories, 1.5 grams of fat, 1 gram of protein, 8 grams of carb (2 of which are fiber and 5 grams sugar), 170 milligrams of sodium, and 1,500 IUs of vitamin A (30% of your daily need) and 12 milligrams of vitamin C (20% of your daily need).

Our tasters enjoyed each variety and noted that all the soups had a nice fresh flavor.   

Lesley Stowe has increased her brand to include three new Raincoast Veggie Flats. These crackers are interesting, not only because they have unique tastes, but their color reflects their ingredients offering additional visual appeal.

A serving equals 3 flatbreads. They are NonGMO Project Verified and kosher certified (OU).

Beet and Balsamic Vinegar has 150 calories, 5 grams of fat, 3 grams of protein, 23 grams of carb and 380 milligrams of sodium.

Butternut Squash & Canadian Maple Syrup has 140 calories, 4.5 grams of fat, 3 grams of protein, 24 grams of carb and 360 milligrams of sodium.

Kale and English Walnut has 150 calories, 7 grams of fat, 3 grams of protein, 21 grams of carb and 300 milligrams of sodium. This was our favorite.
