Hi Blay, yes I have tried them and really like them. I haven't tried the lime/chili ones but I currently have the sour cream & onion and BBQ. They kind of remind me of potato chips except they are round little balls.  I highly recommend these for anyone who craves that salty potato chip flavor.
The other thing I liked actually pre-op were the soy nuts. I haven't tried them for awhile though. Postop they seemed to make my pouch hurt so I just have stayed away from them but someone else might do fine with them.
My 2 week preop diet consisted of using the Smart Forme products plus my 2 week postop consisted of the liquid Smart Forme products. So I have tried most of what they have to offer. I think the only thing I haven't tried is the Jello.
I'm lucky because my surgeon's office sells these products at cost so even though they are still kind of expensive they are much cheaper than I would pay buying them on-line. For example I pay only $8 for the soy crunchies. But all they offer are the BBQ and the Sour Cream & Onion ones. If you really would like to try a box I'm willing to pick one up for you and ship it to you for the cost of purchase and my shipping cost. PM me and let me know.
