    Tried these and they were surprisingly good and only 50 calories per cookie. They had a delicious chocolate coating on the outside and a very nice cake-like on the inside. When I pulled them apart I could see the marshmallow coating pull apart. It tasted like frosting to me, not really like marshmallow. Reminded me of a hoho in cookie form. The cake part was really light which I liked. I didn't try the mint yet because I am not a huge fan of mint and chocolate.

    Back in the 80's, we would eat the whole box. Because we thought if it was fat free then it didn't matter. Counted fat grams not calories. Wonder why it didn't work to lose weight?

    Yes, yes, yes!!! Me too!

    I don't like Quest bars, to me they have no flavor. I found this peanut butter/chocolate protein bar at Grocery Outlet...15 for $4.99! They were on sale & went up about 2 more dollars, but they are good. Taste like a candy bar

    Yay someone else who shops at the Grocery Outlet.

    I like that place too! They have so many things I can't find elsewhere.

    I went to Einstein Bros after I got off work today to try their new Bacon Brewhouse sandwich, but they sold out!!! Luckily, they at least had plenty of their new Shmearfuls left so I bought the Pretzel with Beer Cheese Shmearful. The bantam bagels at Starbucks are $2.95 for a pack of two (or $1.48 each), while the Shmearful at Einsteins turned out to be a little more expensive at $1.58 a pop!
    The price disappointed me since I expected it to be a better value, and I was disappointed further when I got this "pretzel" shmearful only to notice it looked nothing like a pretzel!
    Luckily, that's where the disappointment came to an end. I bit in and it was so soft, warm, and delicious! The bread tasted EXACTLY like a pretzel and it was very salty (I LOVE salt)! The filling tasted like Cheez Whiz I'll admit, I didn't taste any beer flavoring, but secretly I think we all love Cheez Whiz so I was fine with that. It had plenty of filling even if the picture doesn't do it much justice, and I enjoyed this far more than the French Toast Bantam Bagel I had at Starbucks several months ago. I know I'm not comparing apples to apples since I didn't get the French Toast flavor at Einsteins, but it just felt so much more fresh and had so much more filling. I'll definitely be buying these again, it's just a shame it was 90 calories for the small thing (they're not very filling) and a whopping 590mg of sodium for something that's roughly an ounce! No wonder I loved it ;P
    If anyone gets to try the Bacon Brewhouse PLEASE leave your thoughts! I love pretzel breakfast sandwiches, does anyone know if Dunkin Donuts still sells theirs or was it limited time?

    Me, too, when my mom would let us buy these. It's hard not to eat the whole box in a sitting, though...

    I must of been deprived as a child because I never had these until now, haha!

    I may or may not have eaten the whole box last night..... 550 calories of cookie because the boyfriend ate 4 LOL.

    I know, I always laugh when cookies have the "NO FAT". My mom still says that to justify eating cookies or ice cream "but look it says no fat so I can eat as much as I want".

    Yesterday I found Turkey Hill Gelato for $0.99 a container at the Grocery Outlet.

    It got a bad review on this site, but if it's bad at least I didn't pay much.

    It got a bad review for having an "overly strong peanut kick"? I'm sorry, but if I'm getting something peanut butter flavored, I WANT that peanut kick to be as strong as it comes! Please let us know your thoughts on this one!

    I just ate one of those, delicious! The chocolate fudge ones are really good too.

    15 for $4.99?!?!?!!?!?!?!?! Where??? That is insanely cheap! Where I live in Canada they are $3 each, or a box of 15 for $24.99. I only get them when they are 1/2 price after the expiry date haha.

    The peanut butter white chocolate chip one is AMAZING!!! Definitely a million times better than their other pints. It's not exactly ice cream still, but not flavorless frozen water either. It's like a super creamy polish water ice with an overwhelming peanut butter fudge flavor that's just a tad salty like Reese's. You won't regret it.

    I mean, they're the best selling ice cream brand in America now and they're very aware of their success, it was only a matter of time until they got a seasonal flavor I think we all sort of knew it was bound to happen. Especially when @leanitup123 suggested they weren't finished releasing flavors yet ;) Regular ice cream brands have seasonal specialties, so why not Halo Top? Honestly, I'm completely expecting Enlightened to release a seasonal pint, too. I'll be very disappointed if they don't! Either way, this pint will only be around until November so I guess I should start making room in my freezer for another large stock up xD

    Today I stopped at a local nutrition place one of my customers reccomended. He gave me a $1 off coupon too while I was making his sandwich! This place makes protein shakes to go and herbal teas w/ optional aloe infusions. The location boasts over 30 differents flavors! I had Peanut butter brownie batter. IT IS DELICIOUS. It's all Herbalife products. I usually hate plant based protein but these shakes were legit. I suspect it was how she blended it (fancy blendtec blender) but the consistency with WATER + ice was AMAZING. It was only 225 cal and super filling. I am looking at buying a tub of the chocolate flavor. I just hope I can get the consistency the same. I will totally be back to try other flavors.

    Lol this sounded like a sales pitch but I swear its not

    New to me I always saw these but haven't tried until now. They were on clearance. WOW very very good I wasn't expecting them to actually taste so much like cheesecake! I put in fridge for a bit before eating. Very nice cheesecake flavor and texture. I just expected them to taste like the fiber bars but with a little cheesecake flavor. I was craving cheesecake and they hit the spot. Not very filling for 150 calories and I ate two of them lol. yfrviwfirbyy.jpg

    I have seen people say at Walmart and Target on other posts. I haven't been to Walmart in a while. Didn't see at target last week but I also wasn't looking for them (since I didn't know they exsited then).

    I learned my lesson with their pumpkin spice bars. I really can't have just one of those, I have to eat the whole box.

    I really like those but they never hit the cheesecake spot for me :( I do have a hard time not eating the whole box though and I don't find them filling so I don't buy them anymore.
