Has anyone ever tried this? The ones I saw in store had advertisements for recent Fantastic Four Movie, but I just noticed these yesterday. They're more expensive than I would like though, 6.50 according to the HEB website.
I've seen it, lol. Thought about it, but would love to see reviews for it first...
Not sure any stores carry this brand around here.

I just tried Quest's Vanilla Keto Cups (also from their Quest Labs) and unfortunately I can't say I was impressed, although I really wanted to be and at moments I almost convinced myself I was. It was such a weird experience but in the end I've decided it's not something I want to have again.
I've had Quest's Cravings Peanut Butter Cups before (I really enjoy them but hardly buy them), so if anyone is familiar with these, I thought they'd be similar but they aren't. Quest's cravings cups are gritty whereas the chocolate on these Keto Cups is slightly darker and much smoother. There's a small amount of grittiness to it which I really liked, and overall the texture sent me over the moon and had me wanting more. Unfortunately, the same can't be said about the inside. I know I can't compare vanilla to peanut butter, but the peanut butter cups tasted really good whereas this vanilla filling just tasted like Quest's vanilla milkshake powder condensed and almost creamy but still solid.... it's hard to explain, but I wasn't a fan at all. It felt weird eating it, really. Not enjoyable at all and I wanted more chocolate and less filling. The ratio would have been great, if I liked the inside. Very easy to peel apart the layers (which some people may not care about but this matters to me as I like to slow down and really enjoy what I eat). After the first cup I was torn between loving the chocolate and hating the vanilla but I decided it's something I would order again, that is, until I finished the second cup. The more I ate it, the less I liked it. I noticed more of an aftertaste the more I savored the chocolate and I almost feel as if it burned a little bit and had a really bad aftertaste? Overall this isn't something I would recommend and definitely not something I'll be getting again, but with a few improvements (getting rid of the weird chemical aftertaste in the chocolate and lukewarm texture/taste of the vanilla, maybe make it creamier) I would consider giving it another chance. I'll probably try a flavor or two of the other keto cups eventually to see if maybe it was just the vanilla I didn't like, but I still think the Quest Cravings Peanut Butter Cups are still a lot better. Especially for 280 calories, this isn't something I need to have again anytime soon. I definitely feel like if I had more than two cups I would've gotten sick, it made my stomach a bit uneasy which I usually don't experience from sugar free candies.
i have to disagree... first off i think the original Cravings peanut butter cups are absolutely disgusting. they are chalky, nothing like a peanut butter cup, and not worth the calories/macros. i just tried the new keto cups in peanut butter and they actually taste like a REAL peanut butter cup in terms of flavor and texture. such a huge improvement from the old ones. maybe the vanilla isn't great - i can't speak to those specifically as i haven't tried them yet - but in terms of overall texture, etc. i think Quest has come a long way from the original Cravings cups.0 -

I agree that the original cups are awful. But I also agree with the review of the vanilla keto cups. Totally not worth the calories...0 -

I'll have to try the peanut butter version then, thanks for sharing!0 -
I think I found some Green Tea soap... which i've never heard of...0

When I was at Wal-Mart on Friday I noticed they're having a contest to vote for the next Wal-Mart Exclusive flavor of Oreos. The choices are Cookies & Cream (sounds boring), Jelly Doughnut, & Caramel Apple.
http://see.walmart.com/voteoreo
I voted for Jelly Doughnut since that sounds interesting.0 -

Cookies and cream is actually pretty good.

I voted for jelly doughnut because it's the only new flavor.1 -

Ew, caramel apple sounds gross. Oreos already taste like cookies and cream so that's pointless... jelly doughnut sounds interesting.1 -
The cake swirl on this is everything. The Oreo S'mores Blizzard is still my favorite for 2016, but this is certainly up there.
I finally ate this sample bar and wouldn't recommend it. The BBQ flavor is too strong in some bites and too weak in others.
I also tried those dried baby bananas from Trader Joes. I love bananas, but they were a little sweeter than I would like.1 -

That ice cream is freaking amazing!
Have you tried Turkey Hill's Golden Butter Brickle? Another awesome flavor.0 -
Yeah. I think I made a post about enjoying it last year.

I'm pumped that Vitaminshoppe finally has Combat Crunch Birthday Cake on their website. Combat is a tad cheaper through GNC with their card (my card expired), but with buy one get one half off I am definitely buying two boxes.
I bought two boxes of the OhYeah! Cookie Dough & one box of their Raspberry flavor to try & two boxes of the Birthday Cake Combat Crunch.
I was tempted to buy the Muscle Sandwich bars & a box of the Larry & Lenny's Birthday Cake cookies, but I still have two boxes left of the Snickerdoodle from Black Friday.
I've been pawning some of the cookies off to my sister & coworkers.0 -

I got them from Target last Halloween. I liked them! The caramel didn't add much, but I like the green apple flavour with the vanilla cookie.0 -

I want to try these, I wonder how big they are. I hope they are the same size as tumaros.0 -
Haven't tried it yet, but I'm very excited to.
These are really good. The english muffin was a little tough, but it tasted like a regular egg sandwich. Sure it was smaller, but it filled me with a salad and apple.

These kettle chips are quite good. Subtle lime notes and the chili is there but does not over power the chip at all. I like them a lot more than the jalapeño version of kettle cooked potato chips. Will definitely buy again, as Kroger has them on sale $2 for a bag quite often.
Has anyone tried this cold brew yet? I have a coupon and want to know if it's worth it. I'd get the unsweet black version. It looks quite good as I love iced coffee.
I've tried the unsweetened cold brew. It's not bad, especially with a coupon. It has a weird almost "fake" coffee taste to it that I guess is caused by the vague natural flavorings on the ingredient label. Also it has 2 grams of carbs for some reason. I prefer the Starbucks unsweetened iced coffee but this one is a good second choice!
