    I think this stuff has been around for a few years now, but it's new for me. Very tasty. Kinda hard to spread, though.

    Yes I love the stuff.

    I tried the maple almond butter in the little single serving packet a few weeks ago.
    Made me nauseous.

    Since my birthday is next week my father was a gem and took me to the Asian market to see if they had Taro ice cream since that's my favorite dessert ever, and this is what we found:
    Purple Yam & Cheese Ice Cream! I have to wait a week to try it though haha, oh goodness

    I also found these Taro dinner roll buns, and oh my goodness. They're DELICIOUS. I strongly recommend them to whoever is able to find them!!!

    Is it better than Nutella?

    The ice cream looks interesting.

    I never even thought to check out an Asian market for ice cream. Thanks for the idea!

    Meh. A lot of people really like Justin's nut butters but I haven't found them to be any better than any of the other higher-quality nut butters. The Justin's stuff also tends to be really overpriced imo.

    Yeah I noticed that at Giant they wanted $11.99 for a jar. If I were going to pay that price for peanut butter it would be for this http://www.netrition.com/cracked_nut_butter_choco_chip_cookie_dough.html or this http://www.pbcrave.com/Shop-Online/b/3521651011?ref=Cookie Nookie Flavor Page

    It's expensive, that's why I haven't bought another jar, but it's definitely different than nutella... much less sugar, no palm oil. I actually bought another cheaper kind of hazelnut butter to try and was disappointed.

    I have to say though, Justin's butter doesn't even come close to nutella on crepes. It was extremely disappointing. It's good on English muffins or on waffles though.

    Dunno. I've never had Nutella due to being allergic to dairy.

    Agreed. I got the chocolate hazelnut blend as a free sample.

    There's palm oil in Justin's.

    I guess but it's one of the last ingredients, not the second one.

    I noticed at Wal-Mart that Pirate's Booty (they make cheese puffs) has macaroni now.

    Also Oreo has Key Lime Pie Oreos

    YES! YES! YES! (On the key lime pie oreos.) We'd better get them and they'd better be good after all this waiting.

    I finally tried these. They were SUPER good. The cookies themselves tasted like shortbread cookies and the filling actually reminded me of a cherry ICEE.

    I found this frozen yogurt at a bargain store that sells close to expiration date foods

    candied-ginger.png

    At first when I opened the lid it smelled like some kind of soap/air freshener which made me hesitate & wonder if I even wanted to try it. After a few bites I was hooked. This flavor has a vanilla base & a lot of ginger mix-ins. If you guys have bargain/stores that sell close to expiration date items I highly recommend to shop at them.

    I found Ben & Jerry's ice cream for $0.99 cents, Edy's for $1.99, Chobani cups for $0.57, Grape Tomatoes for $0.97 a pack, & a few more other snacky things for pretty cheap.

    The only thing I didn't buy there was fruit since it seemed to be smaller & more expensive than the fresher fruit at Wal-Mart.

    I also found the De-Lish brand at the bargain store (Walgreen's flavor) Cinnamon Bun Blast & found it to be pretty tasty; however, it still isn't as good as the Ben & Jerry's Cinnamon Buns.
