    Got an email from Noodles & Company, they have new zucchini noodles. I'm tempted to give them a try but I've never had veggie noodles before. Has anyone here tried them?

    OMG I wish I had noodles around me because I would love to try these. I love veggie noodles. It is awesome regular restaurant chains are having healthier options like this!

    I'm currently obsessed with their Spicy Pork Adobo but I feel like these veggie noodles would be awful in that haha. Wednesday I'll be stuck at work late so I might swing by afterwards and try it in one of the recommended dishes, I wonder how many calories it will save - maybe for once I'll be able to order a large bowl and not go over my dinner calories!

    Einstein Bros sent me a BOGO breakfast sandwich coupon so I went back to see if they had the Bacon Brewhouse Sandwich. They did!!! It was delicious, but not quite as satisfying as Dunkin's Pretzel Croissant Breakfast Sandwich in my opinion. Very filling, though, so I must give them credit for that! The "beer cheese" left much to be desired, however, as there was not much on the sandwich and like the Shmearful I tried the other day didn't taste like much but Cheez Whiz... no beer flavoring!

    I splurged again on a Shmearful and this time ordered the French Toast flavor, I LOVED IT even more than the pretzel beer cheese shmearful I had last time! I had the French Toast Bantam Bagels before and didn't care for them, there's truly no comparison between these two. Einstein's was so fresh, soft/squishy, and filled with so much of their rich and sweet maple cream cheese it almost brought a tear to my eye. If I had to choose between the French Toast Apple Fritter at IHOP or Einstein Bros' French Toast Shmearful, I'd choose the Shmearful in a heartbeat a thousand times over.

    Probably not new. New to me (ish). Sooooo good! Cheese, dried cherries and chocolate all for 170 calories. I don't eat breakfast usually, but I have one of these mid-morning almost every work day.

    Anyone try these? Amazing macros! I have 2 in the freezer will try them this week.

    eh, they're okay. I purchased a case when a reviewer said that the crust didn't taste like chicken and it felt/tasted just like a regular pizza.... pft. flase. the "crust" is basically flavorless and has a slight weird chewy texture to it... but the toppings and overall taste in your mouth does taste like pizza. if you don't have any food texture issues you'll probably be fine. I'd recommend cooking it in the oven over the microwave, but if you do microwave it- throw it on a hot skillet for a couple minutes to give the crust a little bit more firmness.

    Thanks I'm going to try it tonight in the oven.

    Quest Bars at Wal-Mart were $1.98 a bar a few weeks ago (not sure if it's the same price since I haven't bought any protein bars lately).

    Has anyone tried this new ice cream? I wondered how it compared to their regular ice cream. I think Breyer's regular ice cream is pretty bad tasting. Last time I bought it, I threw it all away after a few bites.

    For the record, if I get regular ice cream at home. I prefer Publix brand. If shopping somewhere else Blue Bunny.

    Wish some of you all were near me so I could give you my Halo Top coupons. I get one like every single trip to the store but I can not have products with Stevia. They cause a flare in a medical condition.

    The cookies & cream is the most "regular" tasting, and by that I mean it tastes like Breyer's frozen dairy dessert low quality "ice cream" so you probably won't like it too much. The other flavors are more similar to Halo Top, but not quite as good when you have them next to it and in my opinion don't fill you as much. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it, only if it's a really good sale that I can't even get the other brands for. You may as well use the coupons and try one, but don't have high expectations!

    It's meh. I did a review a few pages back. I think it tastes less artificial than Halo Top but isn't as filling, obviously.

    That being said... I'm really not into Halo Top anymore and the last few pints I've eaten haven't been satisfying at all because of all the aftertastes so I'm probably not the most unbiased person - I just don't like artificial sweeteners.

    I bought the vanilla flavor with the coupon (thanks @Noreenmarie1234) & it came out to $3.49 per pint. Definitely better than paying $4.99 & cheaper than Halo Top. Still waiting for the three new Halo Top flavors I want to try. I bet Wal-Mart will either get them right away or take forever to get the flavors in.

    I left them in the work freezer to eat on two of my late days at work the next few weeks. If someone eats it & isn't used to fake sugars then they'll get what they deserve :D.

    I am eating that Curry Tiger Sweet Earth burrito I picked up a few weeks ago as I type! ITS AMAZING. Comfort food at it's finest wrapped up in a delicious burrito. I've never had Seitan before and was skeptical, but it's got a great texture! I've paired it with a tablespoon of sour cream as well. I'll definitely be buying this again - and probably trying new flavors too! For 320 calories I can make this a regular occurrence. I imagine the warmth and comfort of all these spices will be even more enjoyable in the fall/wintertime!

    Low Cow from Kroger is DELICIOUS! Well, the chocolate flavor is. I really didn't like HT's so it's especially wonderful to me.

    Skinny Cow has got to be the absolutely most atrocious tasting ice cream I've ever had in my life. *blech!*

    Today I went to Weis & bought two pints of Enlightened's Red Velvet & for some reason I didn't find it as satisfying or as tasty as I did the first few times I bought it. I was shocked at Weis to get a coupon for Halo Top since they don't carry it as far as I know & my mom got one at Giant (Catalina coupons). I'll save those for when the new flavors are released (the sale price should be $3.14 at Wal-Mart which would be the cheapest price around here).

    If I want Enlightened in the future I'll just stick to Triple Chocolate or Caramel Oatmeal Cookie Crunch.

    At GNC I finally found the mybar-confetti.png

    & this. Did anyone try the latter? The guy running the store said it kind of reminds me of a Twix bar.

    I think it's interesting you mentioning how you were no longer impressed with their Red Velvet, as I've had a similar experience with this flavor and also their Birthday Cake flavor, it just doesn't do it for me anymore! I've actually had an opposite experience with their Peanut Butter Chip flavor, however. The first several times I tried this flavor before all the new flavors came out I didn't care for it at all and thought it didn't taste much like peanut butter so I'd avoid it like the plague. After returning that one Pina Colada pint I hated I decided to give it another chance and found myself loving it almost as much as the Chocolate Peanut Butter! It was a lot creamier and had a more rich peanut butter flavor than I remembered while the chocolate chips felt more like slivers than they did tiny hard rocks, it tasted almost like peanut butter fudge to me this time! In addition, the Strawberry Cheesecake, Black Cherry, and Salted Caramel now seem creamier and more flavorful than I remembered. I also swear they thaw quicker; I used to sit them out for 30-40 minutes and now they're soft after 20 minutes. I wrote to them and they claim they never changed their recipe, but it definitely seems (to me) like they did. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this?
