| I am new to Walden Farms products I kept reading about them all over the net so I thought I would try them out, I bought a variety of their products. Bacon Ranch dressing: Very good rich taste! Balsamic Vinaigrette: Too sweet, not good. Ranch Dressing: Horrible taste nothing like any ranch I have ever tasted anywhere. Ranch Veggie dip: Horrible taste nothing like any ranch dip I have ever tasted anywhere gritty. Onion Veggie dip: Horrible taste nothing like any onion I have ever tasted anywhere gritty. All of the Fruit jelly like spreads taste great Blueberry, Raspberry, Apple butter: all were very good, we use them in our oatmeal: Great real flavor. |

| When we first started low carbing in '03, we tried the Walden Farm products and thought they where terrible. We decided to give them a re-try a few months back. I don't know if our tastes have changed over the years, or the company has vastly improved the product, but we really like many of the current offerings. Sure, there are some flavors that could use improvement, but there are others that are excellent. Our favorites are the Italian Sun Dried Tomato and Balsamic Vinaigrette. Keep one thing in mind. Walden Farm products are essentially flavored water thickened with vegetable gums. They are not going to match the taste or texture of a full fat salad dressing. But then again, they are virtually calorie free, so portion control is not a factor (i.e. you can really drench your salads if you wish). |

| Initially I purchased the Walden Farms dressings in Coleslaw, Asian, and Ranch to try out. I now keep a supply of the Coleslaw and Asian on hand as they are both pretty darned good for a 0 calorie dressing! I wasn't real crazy about the Ranch though, just too sweet for my preferences. The only drawback with the Coleslaw is that it is overly sweet as well..as most of the Walden Farms products seem to be. However, I have remedied this sweetness when making a batch of slaw by adding a bit of dijon mustard to the mixture and now I cannot get enough of it! The Asian definitely has a peppery 'bite' to it, but in a good way! I make slaw using this one as well, sometimes adding a few chopped green onions and some diced chicken to the mix, there by, making it a complete meal :) |

| These salad dressings are flavorful and thick. If I were Walden Farms, I would use stevia instead of Splenda to make the products more healthy. Also, I would not use food coloring. A natural coloring would be healthier. They do use red cabbage in some of the dressings instead of food coloring. I use the Italian, Russian, Ranch, and Thousand Island dressings. I add olive oil to my salads to make them more healthy since there is no fat in the dressings. Fat is necessary for the absorption of nutrients from the salad. |

| This is for the Thousand Island dressing . I liked this pretty well. It's a little bland , but I added some stevia and tasted alot better. I will repurchase this. I am planning on trying the other dressings as well. |

| I did not find a low-calorie dressing yet that I can truly enjoy on my salad, and this one is no exception.
This dressing, though, makes an outstanding egg-white omelet! Just add a tablespoon to your egg whites before baking or stir-frying. Taste wise, it's an absolute leader among Walden Farms dressings, and I tried most of them. |

| In general I would recommend all the salad dressings. Do they taste exactly like the full calorie versions? No, but they have a good flavor without any nasty aftertaste, and they have no more than 4 calories in a serving. They are a great way to eat healthier and lose weight. My husband who is not a salad eater loves the chipotle ranch. I dumped about half a bottle of the coleslaw dressing in with a packaged bag of coleslaw mix for a potluck at work. Fat free, less than 100 calories for the whole large bowl, and everybody loved it. |

| Hard to find no-calorie dressing. Taste is as good as can be expected. My only real complaint has to do with the container. Glass is heavy and breakable. Most use plastics these days. |

| I was pleasantly surprised that the taste was so good, I immediately ordered more! I'm on the Medifast diet and this only counts as one condiment. It's helping me stay OP because it enhances the "green" without adding to the calories or carb count. |

| These dressings are fantastic. I don't think most people would know that they have no calories and they are not made with any preservatives. My favorite is Honey Dijon but that's probably personal taste. I use the coleslaw to make coleslaw and it's great. |

| I used this in a pasta salad made with the Fiber Gourmet pasta and NO ONE at the picnic knew! As a matter of fact after everyone had some I asked how it was and everyone loved it... I used Turkey Pepperoni, Fat free feta and veggies along with this dressing....Super low cal, no sugar, no fat...my brother in law went back for seconds when he found out how low cal it was. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because I didn't use it on its own but in a pasta salad....but it was great! |

| I've tried several varieties of the salad dressings, and I must say that they are delicious. Faster than making your own, and not only do I use them on salads, but have used them on sandwiches and wraps, and the Honey Dijon works well on asparagus, too! Will continue to buy and recommend the Walden Farms brand. |

| I recently tried the Italian Sundried tomato dressing. I typically do not like Italian dressings in general. I thought this one was very good-- especially zero cal/carb/sugar. I would recommend this one! |
