    Birthday cake hershey's kisses, anyone? I'm not a white chocolate fan, or a birthday cake flavor fan, but these are GOOD! I bought them for my son's birthday this weekend, and I had to force myself to share them. :p

    It's even better if you put them in the fridge.

    No way! I like soft, almost melty, chocolate. ;)

    I didn't like them. I normally don't like white chocolate either but had to give them a try. I ended up just eating around the chocolate, trying to to get to the pretty colored crunchy pieces.

    Or maybe those were a cupcake flavor? :)

    I hated these when I tried it. If you like Hershey's candy corn bar then it's good, but I personally find their white chocolate too waxy and artificial. You get what you pay for I suppose, but I'd rather spend my calories on better tasting white chocolate. It's a shame, too, because I really wanted to like these.

    I try to stay away from white chocolate altogether. Most dark chocolate also. But, for some reason, I really liked the See's Candy white and dark chocolate candy pieces. It might have been desperation because the milk chocolate was polished off pretty fast but still! :)

    trader joe's - cauliflower tempura

    1iqp67f2zp1s.jpg

    It's just okay. I cooked according to directions but could've taken 10 extra minutes to really get that crispness. There are some huge pieces mixed with a few smaller pieces. Could make it more uniform sizes to cook evenly. King Pao sauce tasted like soy sauce and Sriracha- very salty. Plus, once you mix it with the cauliflower, it makes it mushy.

    I probably won't purchase again but if I do, I'll use the sauce as a dipping sauce instead.

    I won a box of Better Oats on Facebook so I went to the store and used my coupon for the Cinnamon Roll flavor. 4/10. It's good, but nothing about it is great and it's not better than any other regular oatmeal out there. I'd still choose the Cinnabon instant cream of wheat packets over this since that tasted more like cinnamon to me. This oatmeal had 0 grams of sugar, but the ingredients listed sucralose, acesulfame potassium, and caramel color so I think it's misleading a bit with the name "Better Oats" since all those ingredients have so much controversy around them.

    I also tried the new Starbucks DoubleShot Espresso, Espresso & Salted Caramel Cream. 5/10. Again, good, not great. Tasted too much like cream and sugar without really capturing any caramel flavor like the dulce de leche had in the bottled frappuccino.

    I also went to Target and Home Depot yesterday, still no sign of the caramel M&Ms!
    On another note, Starbucks announced on Facebook a new Midnight Mint Mocha Frappuccino. Online it says it has "cooling mint sugar crystals, cut in a layer of whipped cream," it looks really interesting and I might try it this weekend, but if anyone gets to it sooner let me know how it is!

    I saw caramel M&M's at Walmart this weekend. @hgycta Didn't buy any, because I was buying the birthday cake Hershey kisses.

    Tried the OhYeah Maple Glazed Doughnut ONE Protein Bar... I'm at a loss for words. Honestly, I'm not crazy about their protein bars and never understood the hype, but this is my new favorite. A lot better than the blueberry cobbler, now I just need to try the salted caramel! This one was very sweet, had a prominent maple flavor, and wasn't too artificial at all. A lot softer than their other bars, too, which normally I wouldn't like but it was really good with the creamy glaze. 5/5 from me!

    I LOVED this bar. I love the Brach's Maple Nut Goodies and this bar tastes just like them to me! So good!

    Just picked up a pint of Halo top oatmeal cookie. Love oatmeal cookies and can't wait to try it. Anyone have strong feeling about this flavor?

    I find it very underwhelming. Enlightened's version tastes more like an oatmeal cookie to me and is sweeter/more satisfying (albeit also a bit more artificial in the caramel swirl), whereas Halo Top's leaves me feeling like I'm chewing on soggy oats. I'm hoping you like it more than I did!
    I also noticed this Facebook advertisement from them... apparently Halo Top is now in Royal Farms! I can't imagine how expensive it must be having an already expensive ice cream sold at a gas station! Yikes!

    @katadx I love the oatmeal cookie Halo Top. I stay mostly keto and don't eat many sweet things in general so I might not be the best judge! lol. Anyhow I like it and my sugar eating husband really likes it. Some people seem put off by the pieces of oat in there but I kind of like raw oats so it's one of my favorites.
