    There's way too much cereal being released! I can't keep up.

    Out of all the new cereals this looks good & so does the Poptart Brown Sugar.

    The one that most people agree that is nasty is the Sour Patch Kids. Erik The Electric posted on Instagram that he spit it out & if it was the last food on earth he would starve.

    😮 🍌 creme!

    I love using the Xtreme Fitness High Fiber tortillas for wraps instead of bread... or instead of a flour tortilla... they are so soft like a flour tortilla... and I also love the Oh Yea Almond Bliss Bar or Peanut Butter Pie Bars... I order them on amazon

    At quik trip you can buy little portions of the chocolate chip and birthday cake cookie dough so you're not tempted to eat a whole tub! I spent a few weeks working on a tub of the choclate chip dough and it's pretty good. They opened an edible cookie dough bar shop at the mall and I avoid it like the plague because the calories are just too high, lol.

    I was listening to a podcast today with Chobani and they hinted toward a low cal frozen yogurt line... would be interesting.

    Also: any idea on what the next golden edition Halo Top will be? :)

    Cotton Candy or a cheesecake?

    I am visiting family and they ordered a ton of baked goods. I wanted to try them all, haha! We went to panera before and got lunch so I tried a few new things.

    fjwty98eeip1.jpg
    New Panera vanilla cinnamon roll. It was DELICIOUS! 620 calories, but was pretty big. I loved the frosting. It had a hint of lemon though. I wouldn't say very vanilla in flavor. I do far prefer Cinnabon cinnamon rolls though. No one can compete with Cinnabon icing. I did enjoy this because it was really soft and moist. I hate when cinnamon rolls are the dry kind.

    tvf50tyq3fok.jpg
    They also had the new brittany things which are "Cheese Brittanies have a flaky and buttery dough, similar to a croissant, and are filled with rich cream cheese. " I had one bite to try but was not good at all. Tasted like a boring dry yet weirdly chewy pastry. The croissant part paled in comparison to their regular sandwich croissants. I think it would of been good if the croissant part was as good as the ones they use for the sandwiches. There was barely any cream cheese filling, I was hoping for gobs of it like the middle of bostom creme pie donuts, but was sadly let down.


    j4xz2zekb50j.jpg
    Me and the bf decided to indulge and split a napa almond chicken salad on a croissant. I've never had this and WOW it was fantastic!! I know it's not a new sandwich, but we paired it with a croissant so it's kind of "new" and different from the standard. Last time I had this sandwich it wasn't as good and didn't have many almonds. There were a ton of almonds this time and it was just exceptional! Panera bread croissants are SO good!!! I have never had one before, but wow, deliciously light, buttery and flaky.

    I thought the dunkin croissants that they make sandwiches were good, but now I don't think I can ever eat those again because they are so mediocre compared to paneras haha.

    23uiwu60joq3.jpg

    Lastly, I tried this trader jo cauliflower meal and it was really good! Although, it was not very filling and pretty small. The baked tofu was really good, and surprisingly crispy for being microwaved. The cauliflower rice was good too and not mushy. Loved the marinated chick peas, I rarely make chick peas so this was a nice addition. Overall it was pretty good for a frozen meal.

    Dunkin croissants are garbage. I might have to try Panera one day, but I really have super high standards when it comes to croissants (I did grow up in France after all).

    I'm planning on trying this tomorrow! I'll have to break this pizza into other days since it's around 3040 calories for the whole thing.

    Has anyone found this at Walmart?

    I'm having the new Chobani Flip hazelnut as we speak. Totally yum and worth the 250 calories (if you're like me and love hazelnut anything), although it will definitely be a 'once in a while' thing. Also got the limited edition Cinnamon Bun Yoplait Greek and the new Simply Chobani double chocolate chunk yogurts waiting in my fridge. I had the raspberry chocolate light and fit Greek last week for the first time too and it's not bad at all (might not be new though, I just don't remember seeing it before).

    Has anyone noticed any new interesting product recently?

    I love Quest Nutrition bars and chips. Yes chips! They’re high in protein, low carb and a great snack for between meals. I also love blender bottles, yeti tumblers, or any kind of reusable drinkware.

    Boo I went to a few different stores today since I was out grocery shopping & didn't find any of the new Nabisco products!

    Thanks for the review!!!! I messaged them a while ago but they said they didn’t do samples!!!! o:
    Sorry for who missed it! I try to post as soon as I see samples! It is more fun when we all get to try.

    They ended up sending me free sample pack!! :smiley: I was planning to use as peanut butter on bagel/bread/dipped in fruit and how I use my regular pb2, but the package came with a little card that said you should "make a cake" with it so I decided to do that with them all instead.

    They said you can either mix with a few tsp water and few tsp egg whites for more air light cake or just with a few tsp water for a more dense cake. I just used water and a tsp xanthum gum and they came out pretty good! I think it would be a LOT more muffin/cakey with egg whites, but my way made it like a dense half baked brownie consistency.

    I tried a lick of the peanut butter before microwaving of each and was surprised. These are not like regular powdered peanut butter and didn't really taste like powdered pb to me. They all tasted more like cake/brownie batter than powdered pb. (I use chocolate and regular pb2 every day, and these were very different and not very peanut buttery at all)

    The cake batter one smelled like cake, and I loved the cute sprinkles, but didn't really taste like birthday cake. It tasted like a yummy sweet cake, not that "birthday cake" flavor.

    The banana muffin one came out great and I loved the walnut chunks! It did not have an artificial banana flavor.

    The almond bar was my second favorite because I loved the almond chunks in it. No almond extract flavor that I hate. I want more of this flavor to try other ways besides making the mini cakes.

    The chocolate coconut donut was my FAVORITE! I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did. The "batter" tasted like cake batter, not powdered peanut butter. It didn't really have any peanut butter flavor to it which was weird. When microwaved it reminded me of those betty crocker mini delights I used to love. Nice rich chocolate flavor and not heavy on the coconut which I was happy about.

    I didn't try the salted caramel chunk yet but I might just have this one normally on a bagel/wrap or something.

    I wish the sample packs were bigger because I feel like I need to try again to make sure which ones I like the best, haha. On the website they are about $8 per 16oz bag if you use the 12 percent coupon and subscribe deal ( just cancel after ships lol), but that is still a lot more than what I spend on pb2 (~$5-6 per 16oz). I might try making the cakes with my regular pb2 and see if they come out as good, but if not I will probably end up buying because I really liked these and want to try them in other ways.

    Found the carrot cake Oreos at Walmart and got a pack... I was expecting a lot, but they still EXCEEDED my expectations!!!!! My new FAVORITE Oreo! Can’t even rate them out of 10 because they’re better than that! I wanna crush these up and add it to the gingerbread house Halo Top pint I got, the cream cheese inside tastes like the chunks of cream cheese in that pint so it’s going to be sooooo good together!!!
    It also felt like there was even more filling inside than a regular Oreo!!! Felt like a double stuff! VERY sweet!!! Tried one while walking to checkout and had to go back to pick up two more packs...

    Omg thank you I just went and they have a ton !!! I bought the whole shelf of caramel pumpkin etc 25 bottles 😂

    @hgycta YESSS I was hoping they would be as good as expecting I might have to run to target tonight to get I’m dying to try them. Also I usually write a super nice long email sometimes I get lucky sometimes not I think it’s weird how they give to some people and not others. I must write good emails lol.

    This looks cool. I have always been interested in the unique regional international things they have so I might try something depending on what they have. This isn’t announced yet, I am part of a feedback tester program and they asked us a bunch of feedback because are deciding what to name the “event”. t49ayh4yk35y.jpeg

    That sounds awesome how did you get into the feedback tester program!? o:

    So strange enough, I like the cinnamon brown sugar pop tarts cereal way more than the strawberry one, yet my dad likes the strawberry pop tarts cereal more. It has less filling, but more frosting. Yet, it doesn’t taste quite as sweet as the brown sugar flavor, which might be why he likes it more than I do (I LOVE sweets). I missed the chewy filling the brown sugar had. I think it will all come down to personal preference.
    If you like less sweet, more natural flavored things, and like fruit yogurt — try the strawberry
    If you like over the top sweet, dessert flavored things, like indulgent yogurts — try the brown sugar!
