Here’s an update on some new products I’ve tried:
The Honey Roasted Cinnamon peanut butter is awesome! If you haven’t already noticed, I love PB and this one has a wonderful hint in the background of cinnamon—nothing overpowering, but you can definitely tell it’s there. These PB’s are so yummy, there’s no reason for jelly.
Put some Vanilla Almond Butter on top of some toast with a squeeze of honey and you have your very own Graham Cracker! This stuff is to die for!
The McClure’s Pickles are good, but not crunchy enough for me—there isn’t the “snap” when you bite into them. The flavor of the spicy ones is really good, although they are a bit salty for me. My SO (significant other) loves salty food, so he raves about these.
Sansonetti Grilled Portabella Pasta Sauce: Nice flavor and has some nice pieces of mushroom throughout. I always add a few ingredients to any jarred sauce, like extra garlic, hot pepper flakes and some fire-roasted tomatoes, and with these little additions, this one is our favorite. The marinara one is good as well, but we like the chunks of mushrooms.
The meat from Creswick Farms:
This is the first time I’ve ever had organic ground beef and the biggest surprise for me was that there is NO GREASE after browning it! What a total shocker! Nothing to drain and no need to rinse (which I normally do with regular ground beef). The hamburger patties are very convenient and cook up quick. (Hurry up and get them back in, Julie! LOL!)
The Filet Mignon is wonderful! Our only ‘seasoning’ is a bit of kosher salt before grilling—these are top notch and I highly recommend them. They are way cheaper then a steakhouse and much better tasting. Cooked these up with some of that yummy asparagus and some corn on the cob…YUM-O!
Tried the Jalapeno & Cheddar summer sausage, unfortunately, I am not a big fan of it. There wasn’t much of a bite as I’d hope for. Put them out with some cheese for a small get together before the 4th—the cheese was gone, but the sausage remained L.
The cottage cheese is really creamy. It’s usually on my list every week.
The butter: Holy TUB O’BUTTER! That’s a lot of butter for 2 people! I split it up with a person I work with, so it works out perfect.
Happy eating!

The beef not having fat is probably more due to the fact it is pastured beef than organic. It is good it is organic, but the lack of fat has to do with the fact the animal is eating the diet nature intended and getting plenty of exercise in the outdoors.
Grass-fed beef has up to 50% less total fat as grain-fed and a lot less saturated fat too (I have read conflicting reports but anywhere from 40-70 percent less. The grass-fed beef also has a better overall nutritional profile (contains CLA's, more Omega 3's, better fat profile, higher vitamin E, etc.)
Crestwicks does have great products. I know Julie also mentioned buying in bulk if you order a 1/4, 1/2 etc. of a cow for beef it makes it much cheaper!!
