Tell Us About Your Favorite 365 Everyday Value® Product and You Could Win Lip-Balm-PeppermintIt was definitely not news when I learned that 82% of those in a Harris Interactive survey said that the way they shop for groceries has changed in the past year or so, that they're using more coupons, comparison shopping and buying more grocery store brands. Sales of our own branded 365 Everyday Value® products have indeed grown as shoppers discover their value…great pricing on natural and organic, without the artificial additives often found in value brands. Can you tell we're proud? We know you're buying them-thanks!-so tell us which is your favorite 365 Everyday Value® brand product and how you use it. We'll choose a winner at random from the responses we receive and that winner will receive a $50 Whole Foods Market® gift card plus A Better Bag filled with some of our favorite 365 Everyday Value® items. Get on it! The deadline for responding is October 19th. 365-Extra-Virgin-Olive-Oil-And, if you haven't already, be sure to sign up for The Whole Deal e-newsletter.

My favorite item from 365 is the chicken broth soup. It really warms you up, and is soo tasty. With all of the sickness going around i feel that it really helps me ward off the germs.

My favorite 365 product is actually the chipotle salsa! Moving from the south to the north, we really miss our spicy, spicy salsa from restaurants. After scouring all over Boston, I was happy to finally find what I was looking for from whole foods! Now if whole foods could just bring us some restaurant queso...

I have been enormously satisfied with every 365 brand product I have purchased! One of my favorites is the 365 Chunky Almond Butter. I especially like to spread this almond butter on top of a toasted piece of whole grain bread...oh, so good! :)

This is not easy, I have so many favorites. I narrowed it down to the Blueberry Cereal bars, they are yummy, low fat, low sodium, nutrition packed, a great on the go snack. Whew! that was tough, so many great products. (smile)

My favorite 365 whole foods product is the microwave popcorn because it is so delicious and a healthy snack. I take a box to work and have it in the afternoons to get me through the day. It is the perfect answer to a snack attack and fills me up without the guilt of a lot of calories and fat.

365 Chocolate Ice Cream How I use it: B R I B E R Y. I put a very small about, about an 1/8 cup, on a Gluten Free Cone and my 4yr old son thinks it is the biggest desert ever. The container lasts for a few weeks (unless mom and dad indulge) and he gobbles up all his vegetables.

We love your 365 Everyday Value organic cheeses! My 2 year old specifically requests "the good cheeses" whenever we go!

The 365 Ketchup is the absolute best tasting ketchup! And, it has none of the HFCS or other artificial additives of the "other brand name" ketchup. We use it for everything. It is a great way to get your daily serving of lycopene!

Peanut butter!! I buy the giant containers and use it for peanut butter & apples (my favorite snack) and peanut butter/honey sandwiches! It's the one thing that I always, without exception, have in my kitchen.

Back before I made the switch to more natural/organic products, I thought dessert couldn't get much better than a glass of milk and a few Oreo cookies. Boy was I wrong- Your 365 Everyday organic milk and all-natural chocolate sandwich cookies blew my old routine out of the water- so much better than the "original" and approximately the same price for a healthier take on an old standby. THANK YOU for these products!!

The 365 everyday value olive oil is the best I've ever used, and Cooks Illustrated agrees with me :) it consistently wins their blind taste tests, and even my husband (who is hardly a gourmand) knows when I use a different oil to dress the salad!

Gotta love the Olive Oil. There are so many others too but it great when trying to cook healthy and the cost is wonderful.

I have two favorites! The olive oil and the quinoa. Especially the quinoa, because other brands are so expensive! Quinoa is so nutritious, containing all 8 essential amino acids and tons of protein!
