Was excited to get my first Starbucks PSL of the season UNTIL . . . 650 calories for a Venti!!! No thanks, I'll eat those instead!
Yeah I've pretty much given up on the fancy coffee drinks
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 xDFor 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...
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!
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).0 -
New bars being released by Hershey's come December, and they look really good!

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!0 -
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.

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.1 -

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
I think he is an ambassador or something
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!!!Strawblackcat wrote: »

Quest's new line of Keto frozen meals. I dunno, $7.49 for a sausage egg and cheese biscuit? Seems a bit out there.

Aldi breaks out their line of German food products for October every year. Schnitzels, pretzels, wine, sausages, etc. Oh well, maybe next year. I'm not missing anything.2

Ok maybe I should stop by Aldi, lol.1 -
Tried the Nitro Crunch Birthday Cake bar & it tasted more like Birthday Cake than The Combat Crunch & Robert Irvine bars, but I prefer the latter since those bars have denser textures & more layers.1

Maybe Josh works for a major corporation that deals with different food brands. Hasn't he posted about numerous food products that are soon to be released?1 -
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 :xNoreenmarie1234 wrote: »
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:
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.
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!
Stop yourself. I LOVE BANANA LAFFY TAFFY! *offtoGNC*0 -

I want that job.2 -
Finally tried these. I LOVED THEM! They really had the birthday cake flavor which I dont think the rob irvine one really has. And I hate the lemony flavor other bars have. @kellyjellybellyjelly I agree it had a more bday cake flavor. I actually preferred these bars because I don't really like the "middle" of the combat crunch bars. I liked the texture of these bars even though one bar wasn't really as satisfying as other bars that are chewier/more layers.3 -
I tried these in sea salt, ranch, and honey roasted so far....
Sea salt: 7/10 really really good! Kind of plain and just tasted like chick pea so I topped my salad with them and they were a really nice addition
Ranch: 9/10 MY FAVORITE!! Really nice ranch taste. I ate these one on their own they were so good. My hands got the "ranch hands" that you get when you eat cool ranch doritos and have to lick off your hands. LOL kinda weird to add this in, but they reminded me of back in the day.
Honey roasted: 7/10 Pretty good, but not my favorite of the bunch. They would probably be good in some type of trail mix. They had a really nice sweet honey taste. I think with the rest of them I will make a trail mix or maybe add as a topping to butternut or pumpkin soup
they would be AMAZING on soup
The only thing I didn't like is that they are so dry so you can't eat many at a time without drinking. But this is also a plus because I was satisfied on the serving size and didn't really want to eat more. I would definitely buy these again. They would make amazing soup toppers.3
