Actually it is a very mild chocolate that is dyed red. On the chocolate totem pole red velvet would be between white chocolate and milk chocolate.
Red velvet should have a certain tartness to it as well, but some "red velvet" recipes literally are just chocolate cake with a disturbing amount of red food dye added.0 -
My Target has the Clif bars but I don't know when I will be able to try them. Expensive though, man.1

My grocery store in NC has the chocolate Oreo Thins. We're usually a little slow to get things when they're released.0

I tried the Nabisco Oreo brownie 'with real oreo pieces' yesterday. I had been looking forward to it for a couple of weeks.
I want my 280 calories back. And I love Oreos.
It tasted chemical-y and was dry but somehow stayed together. The oreo pieces weren't really noticeable excepting a small piece that was creme filling from the oreo and that tasted better than the actual brownie. I'd rather bake my own for that amount of calories.1 -

My Krogers had Oreo lemon thins in stock. They aren't limited edition, so I didn't buy these. I'm holding out for the pebbles or blueberry flavors.0 -

So yogurt, but the texture of those Jell-O mousse pudding cups. The so-called vanilla cupcake still tastes like nothing, but the lemon meringue is really, really good. Eyeing the berry ones for next week's impulse purchase slot.
In the energy bars category - Luna Bar has a new "chocolate cupcake" flavor. They surprised me by being genuinely cake batter flavored, but the one I tried, at least, was stiff (stale?) which turned me off.
I love the Yogurt whips. I eat one of those every day just about. Salted Caramel and Coconut Cream are great flavors!0 -
Oh, I should say that I tried the new chips and thought they were awful. I never tried the original ones, so I can't say if it's an improvement or not, but I definitely will not purchase again. The flavour on them was good, but the actual chips taste gross, and I didn't care for the texture. I don't really know how to describe it.0 -
Tried the B-Up bars. Yuck. They are very sweet, not as filling and have the consistency of taffy. I'll stick with Quest. Also ordered the Questa pasta ( which comes in a bag full of water) but haven't tried it yet.0

ditto on the the B-Up bars... they're not great at all. plus they block you on IG if you give them anything but a positive review (as in, post on IG reviewing their product), which is a shady way to run a business if you ask me.0 -
Awwwww I really like the B Up bars.
I'm curious about the quest pasta. If the texture is anything like shirataki noodles...that's a go no for me.
And I like the quest chips (both versions) too!

Darn has no one tested the cliff bars yet? I also saw them at target yesterday but I don't want to buy 4 at once if they suck. Maybe I'll buy a box tomorrow...0

Quest Chips were pretty okay. I do prefer spending my calories on those than the bars, especially after the formula change.0

I, too, really enjoy the Quest Chips (both versions). I thought the new ones were a lot crunchier but overall very similar, so if the original poster didn't like the newer ones they probably won't care for the old, either.
I have tried Quest Pasta and it's very similar, if not identical, to shirataki noodles. I tried the spinach fettuccine one because I liked the whole appeal of it being green, but other than that it tasted the same. If you like one, you'll like the other. Since you don't care for shirataki noodles, stay away 0 -
Has anyone had this? I tried my hand at making bacon for my sister, failed, but enjoy using it for my egg in the morning. I don't cook bacon with any sort of frequency, don't like it tbh. I think this and their beef tallow is on sale at HEB this week.0 -
Uh oh... attention Walmart shoppers and Twinkies lovers, this summer:

Deep fried twinkies you can buy. Should I dare set higher expectations after all the disappointing reviews from the Oreo Churros?0 -

LOL I figured. I didn't like the texture and I tried making them a couple different ways (microwave and pan fried). Oh well...I'll live!
Oh! And one of my Kroger/Ralphs had the Oreo lemon thins but not the chocolate thins. I didn't buy them but I'll probably stop in the one closer to my home or see if my even more local Safeway/Vons has them.0 -

Try making a fritatta with it. In a cast iron pan. Best. Dinner. Ever.1 -

I am not a fan of chips in general. I just think they are boring and when I want chips I want some really good ones. I tried the salt n vinegar old formula ones and the texture was weird, didn't taste like chips to me. But I may try these ones if I ever see them.0 -

Me either the texture was like... almost grainy but not your right you cant explain. I would prefer veggie chips for 100 calories (although the stats aren't as good)0 -
I found Garden Lights Superfood Veggie Cakes at Costco. They are tasty if you get tired of sweet things like me who is on a shake 3 times a day diet.0

So
First mine weighed 10% more than the package said... so 250 calories in that small bar. Taste-wise, it's the same dense coating that we're used to with clif bars, but I couldn't really taste the filling. I'll have to try the coconut almond butter one next, but so far, for the price, it won't be a repeat purchase. They seem to be filling somewhat, at least.1 -

THANKS for the review. Darn, was hoping they'd be a little lower calorie wise.0 -

I am all over the Icelandic yogurt just now. High protein, low carb, low fat
They have this here in Germany! And not too expensive either. The cherry flavor is fantastic.0 -
