    I'm sick as a dog right now, but a girl's still gotta eat, right?

    I bought these at Kroger the other day since they were on sale ($3.50-ish, I think?). I found it pretty "meh". The cream cheese had a good texture, but I think that it had too much sugar added into it, since I feel that proper cheesecake should still have a bit of a tang to it, and this didn't. The cherries were also too sweet, and only tasted like sugar (instead of like fruit). Maybe I should have tried the strawberry. In any case, the ingredients list is surprisingly not terrible, and the macros are similar to that of a standard pudding cup.

    6.5/10

    I saw them for $3.99 or something at Shop Rite and couldn't figure out what we were supposed to eat them with. Never occurred to me to just eat it like a yogurt LOL. I might try the caramel one when it's on sale.

    Pretty good, but I think I still like the fudge bar betters.

    girl-scout-smores-chocolate-dipped-cookie-today-160810-tease-02_226f6043e816632c0c5f9387c9aea2be.today-inline-large.jpg

    The new Girl scout s'mores cookies. Still pissed that I live in a place that doesn't have the sandwich ones. I tried the other one yesterday and it doesn't taste like s'mores at all, it has a vague minty taste too and is just a very average chocolate covered cookie, and is nowhere as tasty as the Thanks-A-Lot. Bummer.

    Was able to sample them all. The birthday cake is the best imo, but still nothing special.

    This makes me feel better about not being able to scarf these lol

    This was pretty similar to the salted caramel bar in texture. Soft, with pea protein crisps littered throughout. It tasted a lot like the salted caramel bar too - although it did have a slightly chocolatier hint to it. It also had a chocolate coating in the bottom, which I liked, and I still found it plenty sweet and satisfying for the macros.

    7.5/10

    Eating the new Frosted Chocolate Mocha Dunkin Donuts Pop Tarts right now and not impressed. It's delicious, don't get me wrong (reminds me of chocolate brownie batter when toasted), but it doesn't taste anything like a mocha. My favorite is still the Vanilla Latte which actually has a really nice espresso flavoring to it!!!

    I just noticed this. There's been a recall on peppermint Twinkies.

    Were the Philadelphia cheesecake things $3.99 EACH or for 2?

    Silly question but what part of the market did you find them? I didn't see any with the cream cheeses or with the puddings and jello (but we might not have them yet).

    Anyone try spiru-tein protein shakes? There are free samples available was thinking of ordering if they are any good. The banana split and chocolate cherry sound good. Wonder if anyone has tried.

    I've tried the vanilla one before when we were discontinuing them at work and put everything that we had left of them on clearance. The taste and texture were really good - really smooth and sweet. They gave me horrible digestive issues, though (some of the worst cramps and bloating that I've ever experienced, which lasted for days) so I'm never going to be interested in trying anything from them again.

    I found them right above the displays of cream cheese. They're pretty new, so you probably just don't have them yet. Honestly, I was kind of suprised to find them.

    At Shop Rite it was with the puddings.
