I was able to find the Jordan's Skinny Syrups at Ross for $3.99 each. They only had 3 bottles on the shelf, 2 Hazelnut and 1 Vanilla so I bought the Vanilla. Its really good! I've tried all the different brands of zero calorie syrups and this is the first one that doesn't have a weird chemical taste. Definitely going to check back, hoping they get more flavors in soon. I really want the Caramel!

Good news: I found a store near me that sells the new Halo Top gingerbread flavor!!!!!
Bad news: They were sold out. Of course.
I found it at Wegmans, and also spotted this weird fruit... has anyone tried it? I can’t find too many things about eating it raw so I didn’t pick it up but if it’s really good I might go back.
I picked this up, too. Praying for it to taste like Holi Doodle. It was on sale and if it’s good I’m definitely driving back out ASAP. Melted a little from the long drive home since I don’t live that close to Wegmans so if it gets dense enough tonight I’d like to try it, if not, I’m having it tomorrow and will report back
Also, I saw these but not a price nor the calories anywhere but I don’t know... I’m beating myself up for not grabbing one haha
Can't wait to read the review on the Perry's ice cream!
I went to Giant after work to see if they had Gingerbread, but only saw Pumpkin Pie & no spot yet for Gingerbread.
Walmart also has the Kinder Surprise eggs & I bet for a better price.1 -
Not as good as Holi-Doodle. Less sweet and it feels like it's missing something (probably cinnamon and actual icing that's hard and sweet but I'm not certain). Overall, Perry's sugar cookie dough ice cream is a very delicious treat (the purple frosting swirls don't taste like icing, it sort of reminds me of those Pillsbury ready to bake holiday sugar cookies I grew up on), but it's not Holi-Doodle and I'll always miss Holi-Doodle. I would probably get this again since I love those sugar cookies, but Holi-Doodle was much more well rounded as a flavor.
Perry’s: 10/10; couldn't be better as a sugar cookie ice cream
Holi-Doodle: 1000000/10; went above a sugar cookie ice cream and shall not be compared again.

Just so you guys know vitaminshoppe has cyber monday 20% off everything and you save SO much if you do subscribe and save (additional 10%) PLUS 10% via ebates so thats a total of 40% off !!!!!!!! Quest bars are only 15 a box and I assume other protein bars/powders whatever you want would be cheapest you can find as well!
After order ships you just go to manage my subscriptions and delete your subscription . I stocked up on everything. Too bad they don't sell halo top for you addicts out there lol. 4 -
Saw this as a lightning deal on amazon. Has anyone tried it?

OMG this looks delicious I LOVE butterscotch.

Can't find a picture but I found the new Chobani whole milk coffee and cream/vanilla chocolate chip cups at Shop Rite.
The coffee one is delicious! Haven't tried the vanilla one yet.1 -

But unfortunately, completely out of stock within at least 25 mile radius of Boston.
Still unable to find this anywhere.
This is the worst.

OK, I usually only get the Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurts because I don't like wasting a bunch of calories on yogurt and eat it for the protein, but I would throw all my yogurt rules away for these glorious flavors. Junk Banter spotted them at Shoprite (found it on their instagram page). I need it in my life. I never realized how much I needed it until now, but I can't go on much longer without them....
Speaking of Junk Banter, they reviewed Halo Top's new gingerbread pint *drools even more* it's just not fair... WHY DID WEGMANS HAVE TO BE SOLD OUT?
As for Cyber Monday deals, I'm pretty disappointed honestly. Doesn't seem nearly as good as last year, Vitamin Shoppe needs to step up their game! The only thing I bought was Simply Scrumptous brownies and cupcakes since I'm addicted and they haven't sold the cupcakes for probably 3 years now but the only offer they had was free shipping which wasn't even THAT great (I saved a whopping $8) -.- The DOUGH Bar has 10% off and a free donut (but not crazy about the new flavors so I'm passing it), Doughble is giving away 2 free pint of cookie dough with any 4 pack (passing since I don't trust myself with a tub of cookie dough), and Dana's Bakery is giving away a free ozen of macarons with each order (which I almost splurged on, but decided not to since I've bought so many other foods to try recently and didn't want these to go bad).1 -

There is no probably.
That's a "serving".
A delicious ~1100 calorie "serving".5 -

Thanks for all the info.
I just did an order & got some new things to try!
I bought the Muscletech Birthday Cake Cookies, The Muscle Sandwich Vanilla bars, & Quest Hero Chocolate Caramel Pecan. I also got a tub of the PES Vanilla protein powder to try.
After I do my shopping at Walmart on Thursday (we get an extra discount for working Dark Thursday/Black Friday) I'll stock up on groceries & then try to lay off buying new/old foods for awhile. The only exception will be when I find the Halo Top Gingerbread since I doubt Walmart will be getting it in.3 -
I’ve been wanting to try these bagels for a LONG time now so I finally splurged while at Wegman’s. 260 calories and 28g of protein, amazing macros! Unfortunately, the bagel itself is a little weird and might put a lot of people off. It’s more chewy and has a slight “fake” taste similar to The Dough Bar Doughnuts. I would get it again if it were less money but I spent $7 on these and I could live without them (I’d rather save money and eat a smaller regular bagel with some eggs). You can definitely tell they’re not a regular bagel, but if you gave them to a stranger they might guess it’s a gluten free bagel since it sort of has that similar texture. 10/10 for the macros, 6/10 for the taste. Better than ThinSlim Food Bagels, but not by much and it’s also 2.5x more calories so I’m not sure if it’s fair to compare them.

Ok see, that's the thing with focusing on macros... for me it's really about finding a macro balance that is satiating to you.
And I've never found protein powder or 'fake' protein food to be more satiating to me than the regular version. Is it weird? Like, Quest bars. For 200 calories, they don't fill me up more than a Kind bar. Is that weird?1 -

Is that a giant aloe vera leaf?! What do you do with that? I'm from Canada and I've NEVER seen that in the produce section...do you eat it? How do you cook it? Why is it in the produce department?!

Yes it is haha XD I only see them really at Wegman's, it's not like every grocery store in the US just has random aloe vera leaves occupying space in every produce department
I never bought it before but I would assume it's more for medicinal use like sunburns and they probably keep it with produce since it's a fresh leaf and it helps people notice it...

Not weird at all, but I'm curious if it's actually more satiating to you physically or if it's your mentality about it that makes natural foods seem more satiating. I'm the opposite, I usually seek out the fake foods and am perfectly content, I'm just also cheap and would rather save $7 on bagels so I can fill up on less expensive protein sources and have that extra money for Halo Top and Enlightened :B It could be that kind bars have a higher fat content than quest and fat has been shown to be more satiating, so perhaps when you continuously reach for quest bars you don't get as much fat throughout the day and this causes more hunger later on? My parents and boyfriend, however, are totally against those "fake" foods and won't go anywhere near them. Although they're considered safe, it's probably healthier to opt for natural foods and I will feel guilty if I spend a full day eating only the processed stuff so I do try to limit it to a point. I know your taste buds though (they seem to be the complete opposite of mine) and these would end up in the trash bin if you got them!1 -

Yet another argument for not ruining a delicious food by trying to cram protein into it.
Instead, just eat a delicious regular bagel and drink a straight protein shake. Similar macros but without powering through a 6/10 tasting "bagel".
(I have similar thoughts on protein pancakes, protein muffins, protein cookies, etc. STOP MAKING DELICIOUS FOOD LESS DELICIOUS!!)

Not as good as Holi-Doodle. Less sweet and it feels like it's missing something (probably cinnamon and actual icing that's hard and sweet but I'm not certain). Overall, Perry's sugar cookie dough ice cream is a very delicious treat (the purple frosting swirls don't taste like icing, it sort of reminds me of those Pillsbury ready to bake holiday sugar cookies I grew up on), but it's not Holi-Doodle and I'll always miss Holi-Doodle.

Thanks for reviewing the ice cream!
I bet Holidoodle met an early death last year when it was reported that it had listeria.2 -
I want a Shape Scale, take 3d photos of your body and determines bodyfat and muscle growth changes over time. Also, there is a mouth guard that brushes your teeth in 3 seconds. Pretty nice. I know that neither of these are food/nutrition but I will leave this up anyway.0

When it says "Seriously Indulgent," it is NOT kidding. This stuff is amazing. A bit high calorie, but if it keeps me full until lunch I am definitely buying more of this in every flavor!

Oh I need to find that stuff.
Not bad.. just a bit busy. Lots of different flavors there. My main issue as usual is that it's low fat yogurt and pretty watery.1 -
I read somewhere that mushroom coffee would be the next big thing in 2018 so I decided to test my luck and try it. I LOVE all things coffee, but I’m never going near this stuff again. It straight up smelled like mushrooms, not coffee, and didn’t taste much better. I forced myself to take three sips in case it might grow on me but the rest ended up down the kitchen sink. HORRIBLE. I can still smell it and it’s turning my stomach!

OMG *gag* mushroom in my coffee sounds absolutely terrible. LOL thanks for trying so we know we aren't missing anything.2 -
After trying the “dog food” looking snacks wasn’t too excited when got these samples but wow the chocolate was really good. Lots of chocolate dusting thAt coated your fingers like you had Cheetos but chocolate lol.
The bbq finally had flavor this time! Huge improvement from the pebbles. Loved the bbq flavor. The apple ones weren’t my favorite. Nice apple cinnamon flavor but had a certain strange taste. Might have just weirded me out that they were brown with green dusting on them and didn’t look very appetizing lol.
