@hgycta @Francl27 @Noreenmarie1234 here's my referral link - you get 10% off your first order if interested - i.refs.cc/NX1feZCI
I can see where everyone is saying it's too expensive but I already waste my money on Simply Scrumptous low carb desserts and Lindasdietdelites.com so it would be nice to try this out for once and change things up! I get paid tomorrow so sometime before the end of this week I'll definitely use that link, thanks!
in all fairness, this isn't one of those big-box companies... this is a brand started by a mom with a full-time career and commitment to bodybuilding competitions. so yes, its a little expensive, but its honestly worth it considering all of the products out there that i have tried and thrown out because they are inedible; therefore, wasting my money.5 -

Beware they have a rather short shelf life.
Oh my goodness, I used to have the same problem but I just can't pay that much for the prepeeled. So I found the following fail safe method:
1. Bring water to boil
2. Place eggs gently into boiling water
3. Allow to come back to a boil and boil for 1 minutes
4. Turn off heat and cover and leave for 11-12 minutes
5. Drain and put ice and a little water and let sit until completely cooled
6. That shell will peel right off! I gently crack them all over and then roll between my palms and they will usually slide right off - I'd say 98 times out of 100
Not a new product, but a new method perhaps?
Mine are never cooked enough when I do that either! Drives me nuts. Got to try them in the instant pot next.0 -

For eggs what works for me, and honestly always works is this:
Put a pot of water on the store and bring to a boil.
Please your eggs in the pot of boiling water and reduce to simmer.
For 1-4 eggs set the timer for 4 minutes, add 1 minute for every 1 extra egg you add to the pot. So for 12 eggs simmer for 12 minutes.
Take the pot off the stove, dump the water and run the eggs under cold water for couple of minutes and then leave them in that cold water for few more.
This will get you perfectly cooked, pas runny but not hard yolks, easy peel eggs.
Now that sounds more realistic.0 -
My no-fail HB egg method:
eggs in pot, cover with cold water
bring to a boil, remove from heat and cover
let 'em sit for 15 minutes
drain and rinse with cold water3 -

Instant pot/pressure cookers do them perfectly, and makes them really easy to peel for some reason.0 -
I dont know where this bar is made, but I recently found it in a local Metro supermarket (Canada). Its called Eat Nakd, and they are 35 gram bars made with no added sugar, gluten, wheat and are dairy free. They were on sale for 99cents, so I bought a couple to try as they are only 140 cals each. The cocoa delight is brilliant! The ingredient list is Dates (48%) Cashews (29%) raisins (17%) and cocoa (6%). The website is eatnakd.com. I am going back today for more.0

It's what I've heard, but with 14 minutes, and it doesn't cut it. Would one minute really make a huge difference? I'm thinking maybe 'bring to a boil' isn't clear enough... at least for me LOL.1 -
@hgycta I work at Denny's. Our new pancakes are fluffier...provided they're mixed right. If they're over mixed or the batter is too old, they'll be flatter. I love our new recipe. They always smell like birthday cake to me. It's so hard sometimes working around pancakes all day!
Here are a couple of products I've been raving about the most lately:
Beanitos black bean chips. I can't say enough about these. They are unique in flavor and can easily replace tortilla chips or potato chips for me as far as crunch goes. After looking at their website, there are many more flavors out there I need to find.
Flat - out flatbread wraps. I tried the multi grain with flax seed. Only 100 calories per wrap. They work extremely well and hold up to fillings.

new Quest labs products -
i think I'll keep an eye on the reviews for the crackers before buying. I bought the doritos-like nacho and zesty tortilla chips expecting the same kind of crunch but they were more like the protein chips. No real difference in texture. Just shaped like a triangle.0 -

As much as I love Quest I can't say I have any desire to try these new products. I enjoy their chips and even their newer tortilla chips, but I feel like they're trying a bit too hard with these and I can't see myself buying them.
I did notice they brought back the Keto Cups though which had me excited until they sent an email notifying about changes in the shipping for them to around $25 so they don't melt. That's crazy, so long me being able to afford them!
However, I just placed an order to try the Lil Buff Bakery! I ordered 5 packs and used your referral code for 10% off which saved me $2, thanks! Let's hope I don't become addicted, what have I done I can't afford this haha xD@hgycta @Francl27 @Noreenmarie1234 here's my referral link - you get 10% off your first order if interested - i.refs.cc/NX1feZCI

I took a closer look at the crackers and, since I eat quest products specifically for the protein, they're not worth it to me.0 -

I actually thought the same thing about a week ago haha with all these companies like Halo Top doing such a great job at producing healthier ice cream I'm surprised Quest hasn't jumped on the bandwagon yet!1 -

Guessing it's kinda tough to sell mostly... hard to ship, and most supplement stores don't have freezers.0 -

Posted about these in another forum but thought I'd post here too. Available in 3 flavors. Macros and ingredients are comparable to Quest. Has anyone tried them?
I love PowerBar Protein Plus bars but I've never even heard of these or seen them! Must know how they are!!!0 -

I saw these and they look super similar to quest. I havent seen yet in any stores but I am eager to try them. Still searching for a bar as good as old quest lol.1 -

I just ordered mine, and, yeah, this has to last me a while. I'm thinking special occasions, like when there's a family birthday so I have something for me to enjoy...0 -
These were really good and only 130 calories per two cookies. They were like a shortbread with a nice white chocolate icing that was the traditional "funfetti bday cake" flavor.
This was not very good. I don't think combat crunch bars are as good as people say. All the ones I've had were just okay. I much prefer power bar triple threat and probar base. These had the "lemony" birthday cake flavor. Not a fan of the lemony ones.

Powerbar is using soluble corn fiber as well so I'm guessing the taste/texture is pretty similar to Quest.
Darn, I hope they taste better. I will be on the lookout for these. Wonder where they will be available first, maybe target. Wegmans usually doesn't get the newest stuff until awhile after.0 -
Has anyone tried the Chobani drinkable yogurt drinks? I'm tempted if they ever get on sale ($2.30 is ridiculous).
I know, I'm a cheapskate.
Also really annoyed at Shop Rite because they keep getting rid of my favorite products (oh my yog yogurts are gone now too!).
Wal-Mart may have the Oh My Yog yogurts (the label at least sounded like that brand).
Wal-Mart is starting to carry a lot more yogurt. I noticed Noosa & Fage.1
