    Anyone? I didn't even see these on the Impulsive Buy.

    I heard they were coming out with these they are already out omg I NEEEEED THESE NOW!!! I have been begging for a pistach

    io product for years! and CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO?! YESS

    Maybe Josh passed along your idea for a pistachio product :p.

    Hahahahaha ;) I went to target but no luck. Hope they have soon. Also got this email and I picked apple pie no one else has an apple cookie so I’m hoping it’s good. They really are trying to get customers back. Free samples are starting to win be over, I am a sucker for freebies lol. g7we1iaa5eng.jpeg

    Hey, it's my new friend, Taryn! :)

    Taryn was the one who sent me the cookies too -- she rocks! And, omg, I'm eating Enlightened's Cookies and Cream pint right now as I type this and I'm gonna have a hard time only eating half (as I usually do). This is so yummy. Easily one of their best flavors.

    The chilly cow did nothing for me either. Boring tasting

    @skelterhelter you got your cookies too? Did you call her? I might have to do that too

    Email. She had originally told me I couldn't get the cookies because of the emails not matching, but when I emailed her to ask again, she sent me out some cookies. I still haven't gotten them yet but they're on the way. I'd email her and ask the same. Just tell her your email should match and that you'd still like the cookies (and that you will offer feedback).

    These aren't a "new" product, but I just recently discovered how much I love them - raw yellow, red and orange bell peppers. The green ones, not so much raw, but cooked they are great. I also cook with the other 3 colors but they are a great snack raw. So sweet, crisp and juicy.

    I also purchased 2 (one for work, one for home) small jewelry scales, since the larger kitchen scales I own don't weigh in the grams portions I need them to.

    I really don't get the hype. The base is bland, the texture is way off.... not satisfying at all. I'd much rather have one serving of regular ice cream.


    So thankful for your review. I kept putting it off b/c $6 for 2 half pints is a bit much for me

    So.... green ketchup is back in Walmart according to Candy Hunting, and it should be available now XD I'm actually really happy about this!

    So, this is a thing. I'm excited, and not just because it means I can finally order a frappe that's not going to be over 400 calories for a small. Well, maybe that's part of the reason....

    Wow I’m really blowing up these forums, I’m sorry!
    I just got the Farm & Oven sampler pack I ordered today, and I’m impressed! The zucchini lemon poppy seed sounded the least exciting to me so of course I decided to get that one out of the way first. I wish I had more! Very good taste and even better microwaved. Soft, filling, and very sweet. My mother didn’t like it, but couldn’t put her finger on what she didn’t like about it. As soon as I try the other flavors I’m ordering more!

    I also ordered a sample pack and they arrived yesterday. I tried the chocolate beet one and really liked it. Didn't microwave, so I'm going to have the zucchini now and microwave first. Thanks for the review!

    I'm happy about the green ketchup too! I remember when colored ketchup was all the rage in the late 90s/early 2000s. You could get it at Burger King too. I think there was a purple, green, and maybe a blue.

    Wow I am surprised you liked them so much! I didn't really like any except the chocolate beet. I found them very boring especially the carrot one. I didn't microwave though, so I will try that next time since I have a whole box now lol.

    I tried the chocolate SinFit cookie and since I don’t learn from my mistakes I microwaved half.
    Again, it did that weird cake thing. But it was ok this time, it sort of made it feel like a chewy brownie! That being said, it still wasn’t very sweet and had a slight protein bar taste. Even though I didn’t mind it microwaved, it’s still A LOT better room temperature. It’s way more fudge-like this way. I’d call it a brownie before I ever call it a cookie, but I might consider getting it again.

    Thanks so much for the review. Amazing that they look SOOOOO incredible yet taste so mediocre, lol.

    The beet dark chocolate is... well, awful. But then again, I still have to hand it to the company - I normally can’t stomach beets whatsoever but I was able to finish all three. The flavor comes out more when heated up in the microwave so I won’t do that again with this flavor. Lemon is without a doubt my favorite, and I might chew some gum soon to get that beet aftertaste out of my mouth! Love the texture though.

    Also, I splurged on that offer for the Dough Bar on their donut day sale. I wrote to them asking that the extra donut wouldn’t be green tea or chili mango, and they honored my request by making the extra flavor Cinnamon Toast Crunch thank goodness! I got the variety pack with eclipse pie, toffee, dark chocolate waffle cone, and Oreo cheesecake. Also got the crispy bar so I’m curious how it will compare to Enlightened’s version!

    Snickerdoodle nutrition for equate compelte cookie

    Wait, a serving size is half a cookie? Who on earth only eats half a cookie?!

    The same person who only eats 2 oreo cookies... or one pop tart.... xD Nutrition labels are sometimes wacky like that!

    I guess the manufacturer wanted to limit the calories of the product and limited the portion size to what seemed reasonable. Cos 400 calories for one cookie is a lot.

    Funny @hgycta I loved the beet the best but I do lovee beets in general. I hated the carrot and found the lemon and pecan good but nothing amazing. What did you think of those ? I don’t think I posted photo of maple in my review. I had the beet cold from the fridge.

    Most protein cookies are 400 cals.The recommened serving size is for 2 . Read the labels carefully! I once ate a lenny and Larry cookie thinking it was 200 cal nope it was 400. I eat lenny & larry cookies faithfully actually eating half of the birthday cake cookie tonight ive learned 4oz is 400+ and 2oz are usally 180-200.

    Oh man, this mint chip Aldi’s ice cream is actually my favorite one. Definitely a Halo Top, but I thought the chocolate chips were great! Just the right amount and very chocolatey in my opinion. Strong mint flavor and just sweet enough. Don’t mind my pajamas ;P

    I loved the beet the best too, and I also loved the maple carrot whatever that flavor was. I took one bite of zucchini one and gave the rest to my 2 year old. That one was not good at all. He ate the whole thing haha
