These have caught my eye pretty much every time I've gone to TJs since I moved here last August. I finally got them, as my "yay finals are over" celebration. They're not *bad* but they're not really what I hoped, either. It's definitely a dark chocolate ganache on the top, rather than a frosting. I also like my peanut butter frosting (the filling) to be a bit sweeter and a bit saltier - this tasted more like peanut butter than peanut butter frosting. Overall, the whole thing is not very sweet and has a quite intense chocolate flavour. I can imagine these being amazing if you're in the mood for that. But, since I really had a craving for a sugar overload, I will make my own cupcakes with PB frosting. I just have to figure out who to give the rest of the batch to, haha.

I only bought those once also. The chocolate are the ones that call my name when I'm at TJ's.0 -

Nothing worse than looking forward to something and being disappointed!
There's so many great bakeries selling donuts and cupcakes here, I just can't do the mass produced stuff.
On an unrelated note, I went to Shop Rite and a whole section of the ice cream selection was gone... Basically all the Edy's and the new stuff that caught my eye last week. Really curious about what they're going to put there instead... but I have so much food in the fridge now, it will be a while before I get there again.0 -

Yeah, that's the main reason I never bought them! I love to bake and have recipes for dark chocolate cupcakes with PB frosting that are way tastier! But I know if I hadn't gotten these I'd feel their pull every time I'm at TJs, so I guess it's good to know. There aren't actually any bakeries at all near me. If there were, I would have gotten a single cupcake there to satisfy my craving.

Glad I saw this after my trip to TJs today, otherwise I might have tried them. I am a big baker but those make me curious! I did buy dark chocolate covered raisins to have in case I need them! Lol0 -
I suggest this recipe if anyone wants dark chocolate cupcakes with PB frosting: http://www.browneyedbaker.com/dark-chocolate-cupcakes-with-peanut-butter-frosting/. You can definitely halve the frosting recipe and still have enough for 12 cupcakes. Be sure to start with a peanut butter you like.0

New to me product and it is AMAZING. I am not the biggest fan of cilantro and neither is my husband, but this we both thought was incredible. I could see using it instead of Miracle Whip for a lot of things and using it as a veggie dip. Nom.
The mango chipotle flavor is my favorite. So good!0 -
Found the new S'mores FlapJacked Mighty Muffin in the Vitamin Shoppe the other day! Tried it this morning and I was very impressed and thoroughly enjoyed it! I still think I like the Apple Cinnamon and Peanut Butter flavors a tad bit more, but this one comes pretty darn close and blows the Maple Pumpkin they had out of the water by a long shot! Definitely something I'd recommend if you're looking for something a little different!

Not sure if new or not, but it's pretty tasty. Beware, it has a pretty significant bite to it with the chilies. I love spice, but I wasn't expecting it to be that noticeable.
Super excited about this one. Was "new" at Harris Teeter. Finally found a skyr that doesn't make my toes curl, lol. It has very, very small bits of cloudberry in it, almost unnoticeable, which is the only downside cause I love me some cloudberry and I like different textures in my yogurt (which is why I'm crazy about the chobani flips) but other than that, probably found a new go-to yogurt
120 Cals and 13g of carbs for those who want to know.

This post got me thinking. Why not do the old weight watchers cupcakes, chocolate cake mix, 1 can pumpkin, 1/2 cup water, I'd probably add a couple egg whites to fluff it up a but. Then mix all natural peanut butter with some cool whip or with cream cheese and a little powdered sugar. I'm in a mission now! I'm going to make a healthy version of this cupcake.0 -

I thought about picking that up because it was 2/$5, but I ended up going for blue cheese instead. We weren't as impressed. Oh well. Next week, I'll definitely pick up the mango chipotle to try along with another bottle of the cilantro avocado!0 -

I mostly use protein powder in "mug cakes". This stuff mixes really well and tastes great. They don't sell this flavor at my local HEB, but I hope the others are as great.0 -

indulged in those yesterday. SUPER good.0 -
I tried the new Cherry Blossom Frappuccino from Starbucks tonight. Not the best picture due to it being so dark, but I enjoyed it! Tasted like strawberry nesquick with a hint of matcha though, very subtle and not at all as unique as I was hoping for. Certainly nothing special for around $5. I can't see myself spending that much for another, but I had no problem finishing it and found it to be an enjoyable alternative if you're not in the mood for coffee (which shame on you if so, coffee is amazing)! ;3

Bought this today and it's so good! Don't know if it's new or not but my Safeway had several seasonal flavors and this was one of them.0 -

I have seen the High Road ice cream at Central Market, but never bought any. I really like spicy chocolate stuff - might have to give it a whirl.0 -
Currently snacking on Carmelized onion and smoked paprika hummus from Sabra it is delicious!!!!!0

Really liked this bar! This bar is more of a nutrition bar than a protein/low sugar bar, but it had a great taste & a slight laffy taffy texture that wasn't as awful as the Fit Elite bars.
This bar just plain awful! Hardly any taste except sucralose. Luckily I only bought one bar instead of a whole box.0 -
Fiber One Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. Love them.0

Thanks for the review, I had seen those atkins bars and was going to buy one to try. Glad I didn't if they are nothing special.0 -
Finally got around to having the Talenti chocolate sorbetto.
It was nowhere near as good as Paciugo's. It was a little too icy (but not grainy), not near chocolate-y enough, and had an alcohol aftertaste like you get when you've used too much vanilla extract. On the good side, it was nice and smooth and not overly sweet like I find many of Talenti's products to be. And of course, the lower calories are good. I like it well enough to finish off the pint but will not buy again.
I am disappoint.0 -
New to me...
But I love these things! They were on sale for $0.88 at Kroger so I bought a bunch to try and really like them.0 -
Dang. I guess it's just peanut butter pretzel and wild blackberry for me.Finally got around to having the Talenti chocolate sorbetto.

I would want to try peach butter biscuit, but Publix isn't a thing here.
