We REALLY wanted to like this because everything in it is stuff we love, but it just didn't do it for us. I think part of it was that we couldn't get past the color of it - an unappetizing dark grey. I'm glad we tried it, but I wouldn't make it again. The ingredients are too expensive for something that doesn't WOW us. Thanks for posting, though!
