| I'd actually give this a 3.5. It tastes nothing like caramel dip; it tastes to me exactly like butterscotch pudding, with the same pudding consistency. However, it IS good with apples. If you like butterscotch pudding, buy this but don't expect it to be like caramel. |

| The Chocolate dip tastes absolutely amazing with carbquick biscuits. It doesn't taste too great by itself because it's very salty. You need something to go with it to mask the salty taste. I love it and I'll keep buying it to go with my low carb muffins or biscuits. |

| OK. I ordered this with the expectation of it being horrid based on reviews, but being a diabetic and wanting to live a long life for my children I was willing to try it. I was pleasantly surprised. Although it was really sweet and mousse-like in texture it was good. It will probably take me a while to go through one jar, but I don't regret buying it. Good with apples. My suggestion is try it. It's only a few dollars; either you'll like it and save yourself calories and carbs or you won't like it. If you're a diabetic it's definitely worth trying. |

| Very good taste-great on apples/pears/etc for a low calorie dessert. Texture is rather like mousse-little odd, but delicious. |

| I purchased the Caramel Dip to try with apples and was surprised at how good it was...for a 0 calorie dip. It WAS a bit over the top sweet however, but I remedied that by mixing up a batch of the PB2 powder I had also purchased and using a little bit of both on my apple slices was then PERFECT! Although the texture is more gelatinous and NOT like real caramel dip, it's not a deal breaker when I need to satiate my sweet tooth! |

| I like many of the Walden Farms products and the chocolate dip did not disappoint. The taste and consistency reminds me of a non-refrigerated pudding cup from my school lunch. It was very good with fresh fruit (strawberries and cherries were best)and marshmallows. I will probably buy it again. |

| When I tried my first taste of this marshmallow dip on a spoon, I wasn't real excited about it. Then a couple of days later, I tried it with peanut butter (one of my favorite things with "real" marshmallow cream) and it was very good. The best thing about it, though, is that there were no "tummy effects" because evidently there are no sugar alcohols in this product! |

| We used the chocolate dip on strawberries. I also blended it with hot water to make a sort of hot chocolate. I liked it enough to order 2 more and I am also ordering the chocolate syrup to check it out. The marshmallow was a little disappointing, but I put it in the blender with strawberries as a smoothie, and it was good that way. |

| It's good. Considering it is calorie-free, it's good. Kinda chemically (I wouldn't eat much by itself), but mixed into things it is good. |

| I use the caramel sauce to make a topping for a cake that I make out of medifast powdered shake mixes. I drizzle Medifast vanilla pudding over the top of the cake, then warm the caramel sauce and do the same thing with it. It is too sweet to use very much of it, but really adds a great gooey caramel flavor to an otherwise boring recipe! |

| Wow, I just had the Marshmallow dip for the first time and it blew me away. It is great for dipping strawberries into. On it's own you get a bit of an aftertaste, but mix it with cinnamon and it's minimal. I also don't really notice it when I eat it with fruit. MUCH better than the chocolate! |

| Walden Farms has created quite a little niche for itself creating foods (primarily condiments, sauces, etc) using a formula of mainly triple-filtered water and then adding intense flavorings and texture enhancers resulting in something with flavor and texture simulating their target but almost no food value so most of their stuff can be listed as zero calorie, zero carb, etc. It's quite a trick but has varying degrees of success. These dips are a relative success but with some strong caveats. I am writing about the sweet dips here -- chocolate, caramel and marshmallow. These each have a texture which is lighter and smoother (no stickiness) than you would expect of the originals, but it is in no way unpleasant. I enjoy each of these to some degree but the flavors are definitely not strongly reminiscent of chocolate, caramel or marshmallow (particularly the marshmallow). My biggest objection to the flavor is that, for some reason, they include lactic acid in the ingredients which, predictably, gives a slightly tart, acidic flavor to the mix -- none of the items they are attempting to copy have this tart flavor so I haven't a clue why they would include it unless it is necessary for its preservative properties or something like that. Whatever the reason, it definitely has a negative effect on the flavor. The chocolate, in particular, I suspect would be much more convincing if only it did not have this acidic flavor. I find them most useful, then, when mixed with things that have strong sweet flavors which offset the tartness. On just flavor alone, I would rate these only a two or a three (actually, probably chocolate 3, caramel 2, and marshmallow 1), but given that they can be quite pleasant when mixed with other flavors, the extremely low carb/calorie factors and the fact that they are virtually alone filling this niche without using sugar alcohols, my personal rating is 4. I have found ways of enjoying all three, and use them frequently, but make no mistake, the flavors are not convincing substitutes for the originals and if tasted apart from other foods, many will likely find the flavors objectionable. |

| Texture is good, taste is good but only in very small amounts. If you try just eating a spoon of it it has this slightly weird "sting" that I've noticed some other sugarfree products have. Still tasty though. |

| I liked the caramel better than the marshmallow as the marshmallow had a little "zing" to it. Just ordered the choc and french onion. Want to use the onion as a veg dip. I do like Walden Farms products, esp. since they are calorie free. |
