    Has anybody seen/tried Talenti Pumpkin Pie Gelato? It came up in my Facebook feed but I've never seen it, not sure if it is a new flavor, regional, a hoax like everything else on FB these days... ;)

    I tried it last year. It's definitely a true to taste replica of a pumpkin pie with some pie mix-ins.

    I think it's the best flavor. I love the texture most of all, and the mix ins make it even better! I wouldn't have tried it if not for this thread.

    Trader Joe's had their pumpkin bread pudding so I had to buy some. No idea when I'll open it though, it sounds very dangerous (and I guess I have to defreeze the whole thing at once).

    Also bought the pumpkin pie spice cookie butter (might try shortly), their pumpkin yogurt, and pumpkin cereal bars (didn't try them last year but my daughter loves them) and the pumpkin jo jo's. They didn't have the pumpkin croissants sadly (or the kringle), but they had pretty much everything else.

    ETA: the pumpkin pie cookie butter is amazing on crepes.

    The pumpkin bread pudding IS dangerous, and worth it. I put just a touch of whipped cream on top, with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

    Also, try that pumpkin pie cookie butter on TJ's frozen cheese blintzes. The blintzes are just 250 calories for two blintzes, so it's not too terrible when you add the cookie butter.

    Where is the pumpkin bread pudding? Freezer? It's my fav dessert. I get it everywhere they have it.

    Yes, freezer. It's 230 calories a slice and there are 8 slices. I'll have to wait until I have a bunch of calories to eat it...

    I found it last year, but Shop Rite carries it year round. I remember eating the whole pint at 4am one day. Not my proudest moment. Haven't bought it again since... lol.

    ETA: had a spoon of the Turkey Hill pumpkin and yep... delicious!

    @vinegar_husbands Those snakaroons look really good. Pumpkin spice and coconut sound like they'd go together really well.

    And all this talk about pumpkin ice cream. I think I know what my next choice of ice cream will be along with B&J pecan pie :p

    That cookie butter must be good since Impulsive Buy gave it a 10/10. Of course sellers on Amazon majorly jacked up the price.

    These aren't too bad, but the texture is a bit weird. I tried the salted caramel and I liked the flavor. They are way too expensive though. $4.99 per box

    I gave in yesterday and used a coupon to get the Toaster Strudel cinnamon roll. Was looking forward to that one.

    Found out this morning that my husband removed the box from the freezer to reach something and left it out all night.

    I'm very sad.

    I really liked this. I think it's the sweetest of all of their flavors.

    This one didn't have that "hempy" taste going on, unlike the others. It was very similar to the coffee bean snakaroons.
    146283.jpg?s=False
    Slight coconutty taste going on. LOOOOVE it.

    I like that this a little thicker (and chunkier) than most premade pasta sauces. Also has no sugar added. It has strong olive oil taste, but there's plenty of olives and capers to made up for that.

    Also, I would really like to try these, but I dunno where to find them...

    Most Walden Farms products are terrible. They taste like sadness in a package. Same with Arctic Zero... save your money.

    I made a TJ's run yesterday after hearing about pumpkin mochi and picked that up with the pumpkin pie spice cookie butter (among other things, including the kringle and 2 types of bread pudding - thank God for the freezer). Tasted just a tiny smidge of it. Texture is a cross between pureed pumpkin and cookie butter. There were little bits of cookie in it. Plenty of pumpkin taste, spice was there and mellow - like it had been cooked. Not raw-tasting at all.

    I liked it. Plan on using it on my Thomas' pumpkin English muffins.

    I tried the other Detour Simple bar, this time it was caramel chocolate chip flavour. Again, completely edible but not really yummy. I'd say they are kind of similar to Combat Crunch, but Combat Crunch is a bit yummier. Basically, both are mediocre chocolate surrounding a tough, chewy centre that is trying to be like a Quest bar but lacks flavour. I won't buy them again, but they weren't gross.

    I will definitely be trying all the flavours of B-up bars though. I'm hoping my local GNC gets more flavours in stores so I can try singles before deciding which to buy boxes of.

    I had half a B up sugar cookie bar last night. I liked the texture and I liked that it was a thick bar...thicker than Quest. The taste wasn't even close to a sugar cookie (not the kind I normally eat, at least) tho.

    I thought it tasted a lot like sugar cookie dough, which isn't my favourite thing. I didn't love that flavour but felt the description was accurate. I liked the mint chocolate and the peanut butter ones. I want to try the cinnamon roll, PB&J, and vanilla PB ones!

    LOL I also sort of buy a few real mini sprinkle sugar cookies from a bakery every Sunday night and hoped it would taste somewhat close to it.

    This was an impulse buy at GNC so if I mosey on in there again, and they're on sale, I'll probably pick up a couple different flavors. The ones you listed sound good!

    I remember having this last year and I loved it!!! This year I tried their salted caramel bread pudding and was ecstatic (salted caramel is the only thing I like more than pumpkin), but very disappointed once I discovered it had absolutely no salted caramel taste to it at all! It was good, but just tasted like a vanilla bread pudding. No caramel swirls or anything, maybe I got a bad container who knows, but there was no caramel to be seen anywhere.

    While I'm on the topic of salted caramel, I finally got around to trying Quest's salted caramel protein powder.
    Holy crap. Definitely my favorite flavor protein powder from them! Used to be tie between vanilla milkshake and banana cream, but salted caramel is the new winner.

    I know this is a "product" thread but since you brought up a couple of my favorite things: bread pudding, pumpkin, and salted caramel - it reminded me of this recipe which I tried last year and they were awesome! The salted caramel cream cheese glaze would have been amazing on just about anything...

    Bought pumpkin spice Oreos today. Nothing to write home about. No problem stopping at one. The kids can enjoy the rest of the package.

    Yeah I read the same thing about the salted caramel bread pudding, that's why I didn't bother with it. But pumpkin, well... eventually I'll have enough calories to try it!

    I agree about the salted caramel powder. I love it in oatmeal. I like the chocolate one too but haven't opened the vanilla yet. I really need more recipes to use them in though... yogurt and oatmeal gets boring.

    Has anyone spotted the other Talenti holiday flavors yet? The Peppermint Bark or the Old World Eggnog? I need to do some 'research' this weekend!

    I swear I saw them all year at my store but they seemed gone last week. So weird. Will probably come back though...

    Not new - My Trader Joe's finally got the TJ Brownie Crisps. It's a good thing the store is a bit of a drive and not in an area I need to be in often. I've found other brownie crisps that are good too, but the chocolate chunks in these are what make it better. I also picked up TJ's chocolate covered sunflower seeds. I'm not getting on the scale any time soon.

    Oh man, that does sound delicious! Did you log them? Do you remember how many calories they were roughly per muffin? I would try it out if I knew I wouldn't easily eat a thousand calories worth of the stuff haha xD

    Picked up the key lime and chocolate chip bags to try. The KL white chocolate was super yummy. Lots of lime flavor and plenty of white chocolate bits. Scared to try the chocolate chip, self control might go out the window.

    Never seen the Key Lime White Chocolate, but the Lemon & Snickerdoodle cookies are awesome!
