    Literally the worst use of my money, $15 for 4 donuts plus $9 shipping so about $6 per donut. I ordered the purple ube with toasted coconut because I love the taste of taro products and these were healthy protein donuts so I was weak and I'm never doing it again but the donut was sososososo satisfying. It's from The Dough Bar if anyone wants to check them out, they shipped across the country so perhaps they're slightly more reasonably if you live closer o:

    Just got a box full of the 10 new Halo Top flavors. You don't even know how excited I am rn.

    How are people even getting access to it already!?! @joshperson195 , you knew about it first and had those pictures, are you secretly working for the company? Can I bribe you for a pint? I'll pay whatever the cost as long as I get to keep my house x'D

    HAHA wow only 150 cals per doughnut? I have never heard of them, how did you find out about them? I looked on their site and I want to try their krispy bars too. I wish they weren't so expensive.

    GNC always carries Quest bars, buy 3, get 1 free. It's like a normal, everyday thing.

    Have you tried GNC's advanced total lean bars? I tried each flavor and honestly like them even more than quest, especially the apple pie! The peanut butter banana reminds me of a banana Laffy taffy so is probably my least favorite but is still good and my mother is obsessed with it haha :x

    150 per donut plus 29 per tub of icing for my flavor, not bad at all especially with 11 grams of protein! Facebook pulled up one of their posts about a giveaway (which I didn't win of course haha) as an advertisement based upon my history (I actually discover a lot of brand through Facebook surprisingly) but I've been following them and finally splurged! I don't think they're selling the Krispy bars yet, I think those are on kickstarter for the time being, they get a lot of orders and apparently go through inventory really quickly. They only ship out orders on Monday so I was pretty impatient once I found this out after placing an order on Tuesday haha o: follow their Facebook, you may eventually win a case who knows!

    I can't wait to check their website. Stupid work blocks any sites that have anything to do with shopping, or God forbid fun. :(

    These are delicious. They taste just like caramel apples. It was between these and the pumpkin spice twinkies, and as much as I adore pumpkin spice, I'm glad I decided to pick these.

    For those who make the protein cakes with the Kodiak mixes: I substituted pumpkin puree for the unsweetened applesauce this morning. Tasted just as good, 5 less calories, 5g less sugar (which is a big deal for me). I think I'll be using pumpkin from now on...

    Honestly, McDonald's pumpkin spice latte > Starbuck's pumpkin spice latte by a long shot, although the calories aren't better at all. Just saying, if you splurge, splurge wisely. Also, if you MUST order it without whip that saves a ton of calories and it just melts anyways xD

    You're a genius.

    Also, I went to Safeway today for the first time in a while since the one close to my house had a roof collapse and hasn't been open in about a year, but I noticed these. Didn't get either (too cheap for Coolhaus and skeptical about the Guanawhateverthatfruitis). Has anyone tried either? I knew Coolhaus made ice cream sandwiches, never knew about the pints!

    10AM EST they release their new flavors and they usually sell out immediately from what I've heard, but they're coming up for me as in stock? Where are you seeing that they're sold out?

    I've had San Bernado and it was ok but definitely not mind blowing for the calories (I think it was the cannoli and biscotti flavors).

    But more importantly, the new Halo Top flavors! Some lucky person got to try them!!!!

    Honestly I'm glad the cherry tasted fake. I normally can't stand cherries so *hopefully* a fake cherry candy will be a positive thing despite the low rating since I like cherry jolly ranchers and laffy taffy xD Kind of disappointed most pints didn't fare too well, although I'm relieved the Red Velvet rated positively I'm sure it will be my favorite anyways!

    I need those bars!

    I don't know that this is new, but first time I tried it. I really wanted to like it. But not so much. Very watery, strong olive flavor, bUT not in a good way. Like they poured the juice from a jar in with it. Blegh.jnr1ih1gv4u8.jpg

    This is what I ended up getting at Safeway today, it was on sale for $3.50 (maybe that's not a good sale who knows) but they also had a regular chocolate and lemon. I'd be interested to try the lemon and I did find this satisfying for 330 calories, although it did (as my dad puts it) have a "weird taste" neither of us liked; I think it could have been the coconut flour in the crust. Not something I'll get again anytime soon unless maybe $1.50 each, but it's worth trying it you like chocolate mint ganache, which is pretty much what the inside reminded me of! However, I very much respect the stated serving size being of 85 grams matching the actual weight of 84.7 grams! Love it when companies somehow get this close to complete accuracy!

    Also, pumpkin spice oh yeah one bar review is up (ranked number 9), I'm kind of disappointed to be honest. Hoping for someone here to try it too so I have more to go off of, I've been spending way too much on food lately I need more justification before I go out! xD

    I love the Hail Merry tarts. They make minis that are 90 calories each, too. The almond butter-filled one is my favorite out of all of the big ones.

    That's impossible, I just contacted Halo Top and they said they don't have ambassadors, he HAS to be part of the company somehow o///o


    I'll have to keep an eye out for those, thanks!!!
