Picked these up and I’m going back tomorrow to stock up. 20/20 the BEST peep I’ve ever had. If anyone here hates peeps, you might actually like these. They taste just like Neapolitan ice cream!!!!
Not AS crazy about this. Very tart, and I’m not a fan of tart things at all.
Where did you buy those peeps?! I have been looking for new flavors in my stores, but I only see the same ones as last year. I must have this!
I think @hgycta bought the Peeps at Target, because I know Walmart doesn't have this particular flavor in stock.1 -
Anyone ever try these protein chips? Giving away free bags if anyone wants to try

@hgycta *ahem* Were you aware of Market Pantry's Cotton Candy ice cream?
(Probably but I saw it and thought of you)
No... but if it’s bigger than a pint and regular calories I can’t let myself get it because I WILL sit down, eat it all in one sitting, have no regrets until I wake up the next day and hate myself for it :’)
I've had this Cotton Candy ice cream, it's tasty! Although it's a bigger size container (half gallon I think) it's 140 calories for a 1/2 cup serving. So not as low as light ice cream, but a lot better calorie-wise than, like, Ben and Jerry's!1 -

I’m one of those people who hates peeps haha ! But I have to admit those actually look good. What are they filled with is it chocolate cream?
I think it was chocolate cream, it was chocolate something!!!! I forced everyone in my family to try them (all of who hate Peeps) and they commented that they were very, very sweet, but they all went back for another and agreed they were delicious!Noreenmarie1234 wrote: »I guess I will be getting all of the new flavors! o: I don't know which one to try first now >~>
Hi-Chew is also having a thing where people can vote on the next flavor brought to the U.S.
I need all of you to go to the website and vote for Cotton Candy. Please help me make this a thing. You all know how much it means to me XD

And for those Canadians.... I'm very jealous of you right now....
Omg how do you win so much tell me your secret lol. How many do you enter a day I usually enter like 5 a week.
I enter like 5-10 a day, depending how much time I have and how many show up in my newsfeed on Facebook. Unfortunately, I enter so many that usually brands/companies pop up more often than my actual friends/family, but it's a great way to kill time while you're waiting in line or in an office. Also great way to kill time during breaks at work while you're eating (they give me 30 minutes and I finish eating in like 5 minutes).Picked these up and I’m going back tomorrow to stock up. 20/20 the BEST peep I’ve ever had.

@kellyjellybellyjelly hit the nail on the head, I got them from Target! I can't ever find good Peeps anywhere else it seems, but Target Cartwheel has 10% off on regular Peeps then 15% off on the Peeps Delights, which I believe ends today. Usually I wait until the day after Easter to stock up on my favorites but last year I made the mistake of waiting and they were completely sold out, the first to go! I also picked up Cotton Candy flavored Peeps which I'm frustrated I didn't know about before this... did anyone here try them yet? Please tell me they're cotton candy and not bubble gum flavored...Picked these up and I’m going back tomorrow to stock up. 20/20 the BEST peep I’ve ever had.

What's the flavor on the Breyers? I love tart stuff,might give it a shot
It's Raspberry Fudge Swirl, I think they did a good job it's just not my thing. They were VERY generous with the chocolate fudge swirls and they became more plentiful as I went down further in the pint, but the entire thing was so tart whereas I like things more sickeningly sweet :')2 -
Of course Target would have these even though I couldn’t find them anywhere else, Target has everything!
I’m not a fan of sour patch kids because they tear up my mouth too much, but these are phenomenal and have that same super sour/sweet thing going on without the pieces of sugar grating away at your mouth as if it were cheese.
If you’re craving sugar, this will kick it to the curb for only 50 calories (8g sugar).
I thought I’d like the blue more, but it’s not as sweet and sour as the red so the red is my favorite. Still, both are very, very, very sweet. They make the Peeps taste like a low sugar candy.

My kids really liked those. Pop them in the freezer for a yummier treat.4

Anyone ever try these last year? They came out for a limited time last year I think, but they are releasing them again this summer. Honey peanut butter reeses sounds AMAZING. BBQ payday sounds absolutely disgusting, lol.
Here is the list: Kit Kat Strawberry Flavored Candy, Hershey’s Kisses Coconut Almond Flavored Candies, PayDay BBQ Flavored Bars, Reese’s Honey Roasted Flavored Peanut Butter Cups, Twizzlers Key Lime Pie Flavored Twists, Twizzlers Orange Cream Pop Flavored Twists, and Hershey’s Cherry Cheesecake Flavored Bars.

The honey roasted wasn’t all that different than regular to me but felt the same on the honey roasted peanut m&ms they tried once. I have the bbq pay day but haven’t tried it yet. Strawberry KitKat was pretty good (as was surprisingly the strawberry nut peanut m&ms) and I can’t report on the rest. Wanted to try the orange cream twirlers but never bought them when they had them at the store where I work.

My supervisor was brave & tried the PayDay BBQ last year
. He said initially it wasn't bad & had kind of a smokey feel to it, but after awhile it gave him acid reflux. 3 -
I found Movie Night and Cookies and Cream Enlightened today at Kroger! I was so surprised and excited! I’ll be having one of them tonight to report on.

Oh my.... I am VERY much looking forward to this review!!!! I'm so jealous you found it!
Also, McDonald's came out with new Turtle McCafe drinks near my house today and I tried it in the iced coffee. Not impressed at all. If you like hazelnut it's probably a good flavor, but personally I find all hazelnut flavored syrups to be really weird tasting and unappealing. Solid hazelnut, caramel, chocolatey flavor though. Wish it would have been pecan, instead. I could finish it, it wasn't TERRIBLE, but I won't be getting it again.

So, I just polished off my first pint of Enlightened Cookies and Cream. I have to say, they nailed it. I just listened to a podcast from Foodbeast that featured the CEO of Enlightened. They talked a bit about their new flavors, and said that they really waited on the cookies and cream to get it right. They succeeded. It’s the same density of all of their other pints. I generally put mine in the microwave for about 35 seconds to get it to the softness I want without it being melted. The vanilla base is good. It does not have giant chunks of Oreo, but there are so many cookie pieces. It’s jam packed. There wasn’t one part of the pint that was just the vanilla base. The cookies and cream taste is right on what I would expect from higher calorie versions. I love that it’s a lower calorie pint too at 320. If you wanted, you could crush up a few Oreos or Oreo thins in you wanted a couple giant chunks. I guess I’m fully on the Enlightened bandwagon. I haven’t had a pint of Halo Top in quite awhile. I’m not avoiding it intentionally, I just really love a few of the Enlightened pints more than any Halo flavor. I would most definitely repurchase. I bought this at a Kroger that is about 30 minutes from my house so it did melt a bit on the way home before I could get it in the freezer which it why in the picture it doesn’t look full.4

I’m not a huge ice cream person but cookies and cream is my number one favorite so I HAVE to buy this. Very impressed with the ratio of cookies to ice cream. Thanks for review I’ll have to get. Ibotta always is giving me coupons for them. Lol.2 -

The aftertaste is even worse for me with Enlightened! Go figure...3 -

I had that BBQ Payday sometime last year. It was pretty good!3 -

I think it depends on the flavor... Enlightened’s caramel flavors, snickerdoodle, the pina colada, and the brownies/cookie dough taste very artificial to me but so does Halo Top’s pancakes & waffles, cinnamon roll, and even some of the seasonal ones like the gingerbread house (which I could overlook because of the amazing icing swirls).
I don’t like one brand more than another, just some of the flavors from each more than the other. Maybe you’ve just been unlucky with the ones you tried. Have you tried Enlightened’s chocolate peanut butter? It’s my FAVORITE and I don’t think tastes artificial at all!1 -
I tried the lemon chicken by Good Food Made Simple and loved it, but this was my first time trying their enchiladas. I don’t shop at Target very often but I might have to go back for more, these frozen dinners are so delicious and flavorful! Has anyone here tried any other flavors they recommend?

Free Little Caesars on April 2nd!

Lol. Your recent posts made me think otherwise.4 -
Another night, another pint! Tonight it’s Enlightened Movie Night. I really really liked this. It’s not as buttery as I expected, and I like that it wasn’t. I was worried it would be super buttery/salty. While a buttery taste was there, it was subtle. When I’m eating something super cold, after awhile I almost lose the flavor a bit if I eat it too fast. That happened here a little bit. I had to stop eating it, let my mouth come back to room temp, and then have another bite to really get the butter taste. It’s was complemented nicely by the numerous caramel swirls and chocolate pieces. I don’t know what it is about the chocolate pieces they use, but they are the same as the ones on the PB Choc Chip, and they actually have good flavor. For me, usually chocolate pieces in ice cream don’t have a lot of taste, but Enlightened’s must be better quality because I can really taste them. The caramels swirls were even more concentrated towards the bottom. Very very good and i’ll definitely repurchase. It was very decadent.

I don't know how late I am on the bandwagon with this one but I tried my first Smash Mallow last night (in hot cocoa) and again this morning (in a pumpkin spice latte - I don't care if it's Spring), and they're amazing! I got the Mint Chocolate Chip, and by themselves they taste like Astronaut Freeze Dried ice cream!
Has anyone here tried other flavors they suggest I try next?
A word of warning, however: the serving size says 4 marshmallows with about 4 servings per container. This should be 16 marshmallows. When I opened my bag I noticed there were only 11 marshmallows inside. Also, the serving size is 4 marshmallows (30g) but when I weighed each marshmallow each one was consistently 10g or very close to it. I'm not sure if I got a weird bag or what, but the nutrition facts should probably be 3 marshmallows per serving instead of 4... just a heads up. So instead of 20 calories a marshmallow it's closer to 26-27... not a huge difference, unless you're like me and use A TON of marshmallows, then they add up :')

I LOVED the cinnamon churro! The rice krispy bars made with them aren't good though.2 -

I wonder how many calories are in this though since it features shortbread cookies instead of thin wafers, Dunkaroos only have 100 per pack! I'll admit, I still eat Dunkaroos every now and again thanks to my occasional careless shopping habits on eBay, which still sells them :')
But in all honesty I only buy them for the novelty of when I have friends over who remember them. In reality, they get way more hype than they deserve. You could very easily recreate the taste by popping open a can of Pillsbury Funfetti Icing (for around a dollar) and dipping your own shortbread cookies inside.1 -
Either companies are SERIOUSLY running out of inspiration for new flavors or this is some bad April Fool's prank released early to get our email addresses and sign us up for their mailing list... if the former, then they should come to this forum for some delicious ideas.... if the latter, then that's pretty deceptive and sort of makes me not like either company...

Wow... I think definitely an april fools. Seems like a marketing ploy to get sign ups and april 2nd they will maybe just pick winners to get bars and some of their pizzas. (If not, then shame on them for being deceptive to get sign ups)
Seems too weird to be true lol.2 -
I love sriracha and I love peanut butter, so when I saw these packs on clearance for .25, I had to try them. This was surprisingly really good on toast. It was more peanut in flavor with a subtle sriracha kick to it. I usually don't like savory peanut butter things, but I actually liked this. I had it on fresh baked sesame bread from a bakery and the spicy peanut went well with the sesame. I wouldn't buy again though. If I ever wanted to recreate it I would just spread some pb on my toast and add some sriracha, lol.1
