    My very first time trying cotton candy grapes (THEY'RE BACK AT WEGMANS)!!!! I picked up three bags expecting to like them so I could make up for lost times. They're AMAZING!!!! I saw something on Buzzfeed about Aldi's also selling them... can anyone confirm if this is true or not!?

    If anyone finds these products let me know

    Talenti-Pumpkin-Pie-Gelato-2017.jpg?resize=550%2C569

    Giant used to get this limited edition flavor, but haven't been stocking it in a few years.

    I definitely need this cereal! I loved it last year (I usually hate Special K cereal since it's so boring).

    What do people think of these Pop-tarts?

    @kellyjellybellyjelly I saw the pumpkin spice pop tarts last year at Walmart, didn't try them though.

    This thread was pretty popular last fall, I'll leave it here for you ;)

    I tried the pumpkin poptarts. They're okay, but nothing special. It does have a good pumpkin flavor, but I can't get over the blahhh crust. It's the same crust as what's on a strawberry pop tart. I tried them last year though so I'd be willing to try them again.

    I love the cotton candy Mentos gum, eat it every day. The red lime flavor is good too --if you like sour.

    I tried the Green Giant cauliflower tater tots tonight. I don't know if they are particularly "healthy", but they're delicious. Froze food section.

    Did you try this @hgycta?

    No, and I probably won't get around to it since I have at least seven opened packs of that gum in different seasonal flavors from last year still and really nothing about this flavor looks that unique except for the image of the unicorn which I think is overrated and irrelevant XD As much as I keep buying new gum flavors that catch my eye, I really don't chew it all that often haha they end up sitting around until all my friends end up eating them on me. Whatever they put in gum makes me have the worst cravings the next day for junk food so I try to limit how much I have anyways :p The only exception is Bubble Yum's Cotton Candy gum which doesn't bother me and hits that cotton candy craving (but again, it's not sugar free so I think that helps). It's weird, I can eat a bunch of diet products and be fine but not gum!

    Arctic Zero had a $3 off 2 pints deal on Ibotta at Walmart so I picked up the Cherry Chocolate Chunk pint to try after being blown away by the Peanut Butter Swirl chunky pint. Unfortunately, I did not like it enough to repurchase (especially for the $4-5 price which never really goes on sale around me). Fortunately, it was still a lot better than the original flavors I remembered so it won't go to waste.
    I love Enlightened's Cherry flavor since it's very creamy and flavorful, but I don't like Halo Top's because I find it more icy and sort of bland. That's how this pint started - icy and bland. However, the more I dug down into it the more and more I found pieces of chocolate and cherries and texture became less of an issue. If I had to choose, I actually think I would buy this over Halo Top's cherry flavor because it had so many more mix-ins! That being said, I probably won't buy either brand's cherry flavor period.
    Arctic Zero's Peanut Butter Swirl is still my favorite and the only one I recommend. I have yet to try Rocky Road, but I can't even find it so if there's any brave souls out there let me know what you think of it! I'll hand it to Arctic Zero, they're making real improvement, but they still have a little ways to go with flavors like this one. Maybe I'm bias though with comparing them to dairy based ice creams since AZ claims it's lactose free, that problem runs in my family and I'm praying i get a few more years in before it strikes me too haha! Also, I should probably mention I'm not normally a huge cherry ice cream person. Why choose a cherry dessert to indulge in when there's more forbidden flavors? I never understood the whole fruit for dessert thing.
    5/5 for a chocolate cherry sorbet, 2.5/5 for a chocolate cherry ice cream.

    WOW last time I bought the texture looked completely different. It really does look like they are making differences. I will have to try again because there is a nice coupon for 1.50 off them on ibotta :smile:

    Cracker Barrel released their new fall items today and those pumpkin pancakes are calling my name! I just discovered how delicious Cracker Barrel is several months ago and I've only been three times, has anyone tried these pumpkin pancakes if they've been around before? I would go out today but I can't find their nutritional information anywhere and quite honestly I don't trust myself around them unless I'm holding myself accountable for every bite XD

    I'm also looking forward to trying Dunkin's new maple pecan Cold Brew that came out today, too! I have all these things saved on my phone haha

    Walmart has the Keebler Pumpkin Fudge Stripes cookies on an end cap. Found the Special K cereal that has Ginger clusters in it that was released last year at Target. For those that have Grocery Outlets they have ON protein powder in Pumpkin Pie flavor for around $14.99, Buff Bake cookies in the regular cookie aisle for $.50 a cookie, and still have the Power Bar boxes for 4.99 for 15 bars. Aldis I spotted Pumpkin Flax granola.

    Looked at Walmart for the new Halo Top flavors, but still not in yet.

    That's what I thought too which is one reason I always avoided trying it, but several months ago when I went I checked their website and it was all there in a pdf! Just not these seasonal items -.-

    They have to now that the law about chains passed, I think. Honestly I've only gone once and I ended up with huge intestinal/stomach issues, so I haven't gone back since.. lol.

    But yeah, finding nutrition info for seasonal items is always difficult.

    I won't go to Cracker Barrel either. Went around last thanksgiving when traveling and the burger my 4 year old 1/2 ate was raw and just lightly browned on the outside. We didn't notice till she was done eating. Who undercooks a kids meal?

    @hgycta Heres the info on the new law! I thought it might be interesting to post. I'm glad this has become a new law.
    According to the FDA:


    "In addition, covered establishments will also be required to post a statement on menus and menu boards about the availability of such additional written nutrition information. To be covered, an establishment must be a restaurant or similar retail food establishment, as defined in the final rule. In addition, such establishment must: (1) be part of a chain of 20 or more locations, (2) doing business under the same name, (3) offering for sale substantially the same menu items."

    Examples of restaurant-type foods that are covered when sold by a facility that is part of a chain with 20 or more locations include:

    Meals from sit-down restaurants
    Foods purchased at drive-through windows
    Take-out food, such as pizza
    Foods, such as made-to-order sandwiches, ordered from a menu or menu board at a grocery store or delicatessen
    Foods you serve yourself from a salad or hot food bar
    Muffins at a bakery or coffee shop
    Popcorn purchased at a movie theater or amusement park
    A scoop of ice cream, milk shake or sundae from an ice cream store
    Hot dogs or frozen drinks prepared on site in a convenience or warehouse store
    Certain alcoholic beverages

    Does cracker barrel have enough locations?

    WOW thank you for that information, I've always been curious about the law and heard mixed things!!! When did it go into effect anyways? When I contacted Shoprite about the calories in their fudge they said they had it available but due to a delay in the FDA passing this law they had some time still before they had to publish it publicly...

    I'm sure Cracker Barrel has well more than 20 locations, they're just about on every stop whenever I take road trips!
    If you go to their menu there's a link to their Nutrition Guide, it's just killing me waiting for the seasonal foods to be added to it so I wasn't sure if these pancakes were out last year if someone happened to know how many calories they were or not (or even if they're delicious enough to waste my time on).

    The FDA's website says that they uploaded the article may 4th, so I assume then?

    It's official, Whole Foods now belongs to Amazon. They lowered the prices at the stores. Their chicken sausages are so good. They're in the fresh meat section, & they have all kinds of flavors.
