Test & Review: Tastmate Jar & Bottle Opener ....will it work for ME?






Tastmate Jar and Bottle Opener

A simple thing, being able to open a jar. But, honestly...not so much when you've got arthritis or other issues with your hands. Over the past couple of years I realize I have lost the strength I once had in my hands, not that I was super strong to start with. I find myself having trouble opening jars, especially jars of salsa....and that makes me sad. 

Needless to say, I was pretty happy to try this product out and see if it does all it should do. It's a simple design, made of a rust resistant stainless steel and a plastic handle. 

Well...presto! This handy gadget actually does work! 



Ok so the directions are in a bit of broken English, but it's not rocket-science. All you do is set the opener on top of the jar, and allow it to re-size itself to fit the lid...and turn it. Counter clock-wise! It did take me a few tries before I realized I was turning it the wrong way. So...counter clock-wise, and it comes off nice and easy. 


It's a simple little tool, but it's really come in handy. I didn't realize it would make opening a jar so much easier...and I don't have to cut the top off of salsa jars anymore! No more unopened jars!

Part One: Quaker "Back to School" Goodies- Popped Rice Snacks







I received my Quaker Back to School Campaign BzzKit today! Yay! 


The first thing I will review are the Quaker Popped Rice Snacks. I received the Cheddar Cheese version, although there are several varieties; including apple cinnamon  BBQ, caramel corn and chipotle cheddar. 




  At first, I thought they were going to be dry and blah...like the old rice cakes from years ago. I assumed I was about to chew some nice cardboard and need about four cups of water to swallow it all. But, I was pleasantly surprised! These rice snacks, are good! The taste is really good, and although they are dry --they are suppose to be that way! They taste a lot like popcorn with powdered cheese on it. My kids say they taste like 'crunchy cheese puffs', and I gotta admit --they are right!! 

Overall: They're a nice snack, even for the kids. 



Three more products to review....stay tuned!!
