O Organics Rosemary

Now that all my herb plants are gonezo, I buy this when I make a nice little creamy garlic rosemary chicken dish. It tastes nice and classy, but I've noticed that whenever I make it, I get itchy and hivey and my gums sting. You'd think an allergy blog owner might recognize this to be an allergy, but the ingredients are all things I've had many times before (rosemary included) so I disregarded. But now....I think I'm allergic to (this?) (fresh?) rosemary. It's a cruel cruel world. Anyway, this tastes so good that I bought it many times in spite of a negative physical reaction to it, so that's something. You get about 4 long tufts, and they hold up pretty well in the fridge. I probably won't buy this anymore though. Sigh!!!

O Organics Thyme

Behold... it is thyme. Ever since my herb garden died off (due to Had To Unplug It) I've been buying a lot of these stupid little 4$ nearly expired-if they're even in stock at all-packs of store brand herbs. I used this to make some vegetarian gravy, since all store bought gravy packs are now Soy City (derogatory, but not in a sexist way). Unfortunately homemade gravy is very dissimilar to pack gravy, and the main flavor note was (you'll never guess),, thyme. Which was OK, and good for potatoes, but maybe less good for things like meats (I didn't yet try it on meats). Anyway, this is expensive and annoying, but that's probably just fresh packaged herbs in general. You also gotta wash it, which is annoying but important in this landscape!

Cost: 4/10 [3.70$]

O Organics Frozen Wild Blueberries

More frozen fruit! I made these into juice, though. Big juice era for me. They weren't really noticeable different than un-wild blueberries, but maybe there was a bit more tartness and red color among them. Honestly the flavor was also weaker than I'd hope. Maybe frozen fruit is just that way. They stained my shirt due to some overenthusiastic mixing, so I will remember them forever (or until I throw out my shirt, which, knowing me, will be a long time from now). 

Overall
Cost: 4/10 [6$ -- they were sold out of the nonorganics!!]
Taste: 6/10

O Organics Baby Spinach

Reviewing fresh spinach? This is a new low! But I'm through my review queue, so what's a girl to do? Plus, I was pretty impressed with this, because it was washed and ready to eat/cook, and it wasn't too wet/soft/expired. So, it did the job nicely. Would consume again.
