    Kallo rice and corn cakes - they come in many flavours here in the UK - from 34 to 40 calories each - favourites are Spicy Chilly (with a Dairylea triangle) and Paprika - for sweet treat Caramel or Blueberry and Vanilla. Big Sainsburys have the best selection.

    Not really new, but I tried the Salted Caramel Chobani flip today and wasn't impressed. Tasted artificial and kind of sour. I eat greek yogurt with berries every morning, but that stuff was nasty. I still have a mocha flip left. I may just toss it out.

    Another new Oreo flavor to watch out for.

    Limited-Edition-Strawberry-Shortcake-Oreo-Cookies.jpg?resize=550%2C635

    According to Impulsive Buy it should be out on shelves April 4th.

    I'm unsure about that. Love the real thing, but artificially flavored strawberry... not so much. Will wait for reviews.


    Oh and I heard back from Shop Rite about Edy's slow churned 'Unfortunately Edy's Ice Cream has been discontinued due to declining sales and to allow us to respond to our customers’ growing preferences for unique, specialty brands and premium flavors and varieties of ice creams, novelties and frozen desserts.'

    Sad.

    How much did they charge for Edy's at Shop Rite?

    If Giant wouldn't price Edy's for $4.99 I would buy that brand more often.

    Wal-Mart had the new Edy's Blueberry flavor, but it wasn't one that seemed that interesting.

    This flavor I'll eventually try once I get my stash of pints down.

    Well I used to find Edy's at $2.50 pretty regularly, between Shop Rite and Acme.

    Now Shop Rite has Blue Bunny but only boring flavors. I've never actually tried Blue Bunny though (apart from the sugar free stuff that I won't be buying again)... how is it? This one looks like the kind I'd like too!

    That looks amazing. Why hasn't anyone come out with a birthday cake non-dairy ice cream yet? Birthday cake is my favorite flavor. :(

    Curious about Enlightened ice cream!

    I ended up eating the pint tonight! It was a lot less dense than Halo Top, definitely a lot softer which I kind of enjoyed but wasn't as filling. The caramel was plentiful throughout the pint and came in globs; a lot more caramel than Ben & Jerry's Core Pints which really surprised me, but honestly the caramel tasted a little fake and the sweetness didn't feel as satisfying as usual. The base by itself really wasn't all that great and it really relied upon that caramel for whatever sweetness I picked up, so I can't imagine what the other flavors must be like. Overall, for the calories it wasn't bad, I say with the texture and amount of caramel swirl it's way better than Arctic Zero. But unfortunately it doesn't even come close to Halo Top, either. I'm probably not going to buy this flavor again for a while but I'm definitely intrigued enough to give their other flavors a shot! It was a really weird experience with the caramel, I wanted to like it because the texture and calories were appealing to me so I'm hoping the others (especially the mint and cookie dough) will be a lot better! If anyone gets a chance to try any other flavors before me please let me know what you think of them!

    Yesterday was grocery shopping night. Picked up at least two new things.

    0375_dt.jpg

    That was not good. I opened up the package and it already had some of the innards oozing out of it though the shell did not appear to be damaged. The filling is extremely sticky and gross like that. I took a bite and while the dark chocolate shell is acceptable, the filling is...no. Whipped corn syrup that doesn't really have any maple flavor to it at all. It has *some* flavor, but I wouldn't immediately run to maple. I noped out of it after one bite, was about to throw the rest in the trash when my husband insisted on rescuing it. I told him you don't want to rescue this, it belongs in the trash. He was sure he knew better. He immediately had regrats. Also said he didn't get how it was supposed to be maple either. But despite saying how he didn't like it at all, finished eating it anyway. Then he complains to me that he needs to lose 20lbs (he does, but that's a story for another day...). *rolls eyes*

    I couldn't find a pic of this, but Dreyer's/Edy's has some new slow churned flavors. I tried the Oregon Black Cherry and it is was...I dunno, I'm considering taking this back because it is awful compared to Breyer's Cherry Vanilla. I couldn't find any cherries in my scoop and it had the most weak cherry flavor. Tasted more like apples, which makes sense when you read the label and apples are in there for some reason. I don't recommend at all.

    This was 'meh'. Wasn't great, wasn't horrible. OK if you need a cheap calorie chocolate ice cream fix.

    Returned to Shoprite today after trying that ice cream because I wanted to try other flavors, and I noticed this. Not sure if it's new, but I've never seen it before. Has anyone here tried it?

    Here's a better picture of the flavors they had of Englightened although it may still be hard to see. Their full lineup is on their website and it seems like they had all of them! I printed a coupon for $1 off two pints off their website so I picked up the mint chocolate chip and cookie dough so hopefully I'll try that relatively soon, but the coupon ended up not working so just a heads up if anyone goes to print out the same one!

    Hmm, I'd try the Toblerone cake. The Almondy cake looks like the same thing you can get from Ikea for less though.

    Ok yeah I need to find that Toblerone cake, lol! I'll check at Shop Rite next time I'm there.

    I love blue bunny. My Safeway has all of the new seasonal flavors. They're all pretty yummy!

    I'm back in Canada for spring break and picked up some new things here.


    tsfepu23frvz.png

    Finally found these. Makes me wonder if they are only in Canada, since I've not seen them in the US yet. It was alright - kind of weak chocolate flavour.

    I like Yoplait Plenti oatmeal meets greek yogurt more. This muesli has far more yogurt and less oatmeal. They also had apple and strawberry flavours.

    I haven't yet tried this.

    SIS the sports product company just launched Whey protein 'gels', like a sachet of energy gel but they have I think 20g of protein in each. I got sent two free samples but have yet to try them, will save them for after a race when I need protein in an ultra convenient form. Anyone tried them yet?

    I'm in Michigan - so close and yet so far to that Maple candy bar, haha. Love maple flavor -

    I did try the new slow churned Vermont Maple Syrup flavor, and that was great!

    Oh my! This thread reminded me that I've had an untouched can of B&J's pumpkin pie ice cream in the freezer for over a month! :o For you Americans, it isn't anything special but pumpkin-anything is so rare here.

    Also, I'm not a vegan / vegetarian but I'm always in the market for some good alternatives to meat / dairy products and I've seen a bunch of new options last time I went shopping, like 'meat' salads, 'chicken' nuggets, mayonnaise... Gonna try them all bit by bit.
  • The thin oreos in mint are like thin mint girl scout cookies. I've also gotten Pure Protein bars in Dark Chocolate Coconut and slice them into about 16 slices, keep them in a baggie and when I want something yummy, I eat a piece, lol. Also, Snickers Crispier bars are SO good.

    Bought the Blue Bunny Vanilla Cupcake & this flavor

    cherrific-cheesecake.v2.jpg

    Not sure when I'll try either of these.

    I bought this to see what it tasted like (what can I say I'm a glutton for punishment)

    az_brownie_blast1.png

    Surprisingly this wasn't half bad & had a lot of mix-ins. Would I choose this over regular ice cream/gelato? No. Would I eat this on a day I want to eat the whole fridge? Yes.

    I want to try the Snickerdoodle Dandy flavor next.

    The chunky pints seem to at least be more edible than the creamy.
