    I just picked 3 cartons of TJ''s pumpkin spice almond milk while in St. Louis this weekend, as well as the Pumpkin Pecan oatmeal, pumpkin spice body butter, and a few other things. I'm really excited since I only make it to Trader Joe's about once or twice a year! Can't wait for breakfast tomorrow!

    I tried Lifeway Birthday Cake kefir. I like kefir, but this didn't really work. It just tastes like vanilla with some vague after taste like they were trying for more. But the actual Madagascar Vanilla is way tastier. I'd give this one a pass.

    They taste like candy bars! They're a little pricy for me, though, so I only indulge occasionally.

    I had the chocolate peanut butter and didn't like it at all. Filling, but bland and artificial with a strong whey taste. Reminded me of a gas station low quality protein bar unfortunately. Hoping the other flavors I got will be better :/

    Okay. It's not a new product, but I found this recipe for making coffee concentrate at home - http://www.kitchentreaty.com/how-to-make-cold-brewed-iced-coffee-concentrate/

    I used New England Coffee in the cinnamon hazelnut flavor and made it. Then, I mixed a half cup of my concentrate with one of my vanilla maple Powerful Yogurt drinks. So good! I bet it would be great in a protein shake in the morning.

    Tried another one of Walnen Farms products. The chocolate syrup is actually VERY VERY good. This one is a keeper. Went so good with my crepes this weekend on coconut whipped cream. Actually tastes no different than the Hershey stuff.

    I'm soo excited! I just got a bottle of the stuff this weekend and haven't dived in yet. I need to get some halo top to add it too!

    Not new, but new to me:

    You can't get this in the US (not even on Amazon!), but a coworker brought some back from Ghana. It's dry--it doesn't melt in your mouth like other chocolates--but I really, really liked it! If anyone ever offers you a bar, do indulge. :smile:

    Have you checked out netrition.com? I usually use them to buy most of my bars. Usually the best price I can find.

    I <3 Noosa. Honestly the 8 oz tubs are perfect. I tend to crave yogurt a lot and when I am not feeling greek I go right for Noosa. My favorite has got to be the lemon flavor. So tart.

    YASSSSS!! Lemon and coconut are my favs!!

    I tried the coffee almond flavor in the past and wasn't impressed, but I heard good things about this flavor and it went on sale so I decided to try it. Very delicious!!! The texture was very icy (could have been freezer burn, I'm not sure), but the pistachio flavor was even sweeter and more noticeable than Talenti's pistachio gelato my father picked up last night. The caramel also complemented the pistachio a lot better than I imagined it would, definitely something I'll get again, just hope the next one isn't as icy!

    I haven't found one that I haven't liked.

    I saw and purchased, so I can say that it caught my eye, a jar of dehydrated spices of the brand "Tarana" and the description Guacamole Spices. The brand doesn't have a web site so I can't post a picture. It's supposedly 0 nutrition for a serving of 1/4 tsp. Just add to avocado and make guacamole. I'm using it now to make my morning avocado into guacamole.

    Just had quest's beyond cereal chocolate bar. I'm torn. I think it's pretty good, more than the others (waffle & cinnamon) it tastes like a chocolate rice krispie treat which I can be on board with. But $15 a box of six? Eh.

    I really want to try there cereal bars but no way am I spending so much money on them. I will wait until they are in stores eventually. 15 a box of 6 is RIDICULOUS! (especially since they are only 100cal each)

    I'm the same. I'm like, I love having the healthier treat option, but for that kind of cost??? I think I'd rather just find a DIFFERENT healthier treat option.
