My favorite snack is 365 POPCORN: the organic, reduced fat & low-sodium version (bagged on chips aisle). I would shop more at WF but the prices are out-of-sight for my meager budget, even for 365 store brand.

My fav 365 value item is the TOFU!!! Great Price!!!!

I really enjoy the 365 Frozen Fruits - especially the mango. This makes a quick, nutritious, and delicious snack or dessert!

Most items in the bulk section - especially the raw pumpkin and sunflower seeds.

My family really enjoys all varieties of the 365 pizzas. Great taste and great ingredients make them our favorites!

While I buy quite a bit of the 365 products, the 365 Tomato Sauce is my favorite. I use it to make my own pizza sauce. No other tomato sauce, major or store brand, has the delicious taste or consistency of the 365 tomato sauce. I saute some minced garlic in 365 olive oil in a small sauce pan, add red pepper flakes, oregano, salt and fennel seed and then stir in the tomato sauce. I simmer for about 15 minutes until the right consistency then spread over my Whole Foods pizza crust dough. I put on my toppings and then bake. Everyone who has had my pizza says it is by far the tastiest they've ever had!

My favorite 365 product is the olive oil! I also love the 365 preserves, ketchup, peanut butter and mini and regular sized frozen waffles. And, the bath products: lavender, citrus and mint shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Love the 365 options! Thanks!

Coffee is a food group for me and I love your 365 French Vanilla.
10/17/2009 10:32:13 AM CDT
My favorite is the 365 extra virgin olive oil. I use it in almost everything I cook.
10/17/2009 11:46:57 AM CDT
Best value, 365 99 cents for a pound of pasta. Cheaper than some stores, and tastier!!!

My eyes naturally gravitate toward the 365 products whenever I'm browsing an aisle-- it's great brand representation when you can always identify the product without any effort. I like all the products, but truly value to the olive oil and the natural laundry detergents. Could go on forever, what can I say... "I AM A WF JUNKY!" :-)

My favorite product right now happens to the the unsweetened rice milk. It is the only brand that is low in carbs, and I use it in my coffee, ceral and baking. I love it!

Think your 365 Italian dressing is delicious and a great value price wise!

Who could choose only one?! I LOVE the 365 Organic Chicken Stock. I use it almost daily. Then, there's the 365 brand Vegan Chocolate Chips!!! For my daughter who's gluten/casein intolerant, these are a WONDERFUL treat. Then, there's the 365 brand of Vitamins; high quality product that I find superior to any name brand.

Love the pasta (spagetti) sauces. Find they taste great and are very economical.
10/17/2009 2:26:29 PM CDT
I love the 365 tomato paste. It adds flavor to everything.
10/17/2009 3:01:53 PM CDT
My favorite is definitely the Woman's Multi-Vitamin. A good multi-vitamin that doesn't make me sick like Centrum!

I love the 365 Chicken Stock - both the sodium and sodium-free ones. (The sodium one tastes better, but I like the sodium-free one because it has chicken fat in them!) I like them because they have no MSG and seem to have less additives than the more expensive brands! I make tom kha gai out of them - I mix about half a container of broth, a few tablespoons of Thai Kitchen Organic Coconut Milk (that stuff is potent - you don't need a whole lot of it) and chicken and vegetables and lemongrass. When I don't have lemongrass, I use sorrel - gives it just as good of a lemony flavor.

I love so many 365 products, but particularly the olive oil
10/17/2009 4:01:37 PM CDT
I absolutely LOVE the 365 wildflower organic honey! I use it to bake my cakes, cookies, and lucious desserts! I also use it as a skin care product, by putting it on my face and patting it till it becomes tacky and really sticky and no longer runs. Then, I rinse it off with very warm water, and my skin just glows like a red rose! I am 45 and people think that I am 22! Do not ever stop making this honey!

My favorite 365 Everyday Value product has to be the Herbal Mint Shower Gel....It smells great, I feel good about using it, and the price is un-beatable! :)
10/17/2009 6:23:15 PM CDT
Love EVOO and use it everyday! Thanks

I love the 365 pasta.

The organic coarsely milled flaxseeds, it's the perfect amendment to any healthly meal. The flaxseeds retain their nutritional potential and maximize absorption.
