    I picked this up over Egg Nog. It's definitely a nice flavor.

    I have this next to the Egg Nog in my freezer, but have not tried it yet. It will have to wait until I eat all of the Egg Nog! Hopefully I will get to it before it's peppermint season.

    Bought these two. Wanted to try them for a while and they were on sale. Might be a bit before i try them though.

    You have found my #1 weakness. I was covered in salt and sugar sitting in a food coma before I could stop eating the salted caramel ones. I will only buy if it is a super awesome absolutely ridiculous sale. Though they sell them in individual sizes at my local grocery!

    I know these aren't new but I just discovered Muscle Pharm protein bars -- unbelievably good and taste just like a candy bar. In fact, if I had closed my eyes, it was almost like I was eating a Snickers bar -- except way healthier.

    Those Sweet & Salty mixes wouldn't be something I could have, alongside Turtle Chex Mix and that GH Cretors caramel and cheddar popcorn. I can pass on ice cream, cake, pie, candy, cheese, nut butter-- but not salty/sweet/crispy blends.

    I just purchased a ton of stuff from ThinSlim Foods, I can't wait to try them and really hope they're as good as some of the reviews I saw! The chocolate cookie looks delicious but I tried their pumpkin spice square first. I shouldn't have microwaved it, but the half that I ate normally wasn't too great (heavy on the clove, which I don't like). Also a weird texture like a wet sponge but I'm keeping my hopes high for their cookies/breads!

    I've wanted to try these! Especially their 60 calorie bagels and muffins. I was skeptical about the absurdly low calorie count though, but I look forward to seeing more reviews from you :)

    You know that Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter that's so dangerous?

    Try it in your oatmeal.

    I almost wish I hadn't done it, but lordy it's good.

    Still jealous that I cannot buy this. Well I could on Amazon for $11.00+, but I think I'll pass.

    Been wanting to try it, but in my experience when I put something I love in oatmeal, it just loses its taste unless I put a lot of it... so I admit I'm a bit reluctant to try it that way. I've just been eating it in crepes or on English muffins.

    that does not sound good based on the ingredients. Please let us know how it turned out.

    I had these Chili Hot Pockets a few days ago. T

    here's been talks about them and they're limited edition so I had to try them.

    Pretty good, the bread was like corn bread and it was the first Hot Pocket I've ever had that didn't squirt all over the place and burn the *kitten* out of you.

    So, not lavapockets?

    Interesting! I'll look for that.

    I'm kind of questioning that protein count now. I ate about 1/2c. two hours ago (as pancakes) and am hungryish again already. Hmm. That should've been like the protein amount in a Quest bar. Maybe it's just because this is when I usually eat breakfast, not two hours ago.

    Protein doesn't really impact my appetite honestly. They still have a lot of carbs and are not that filling on their own IMO.

    I need lots of carbs to feel full too. That's why I eat pancakes almost every day for breakfast. These, I use a whole cup. 1/2 cup wouldn't do it for me at all.

    Yeah I love carbs too, lol. But I need protein and fat too.

    Yep, that's why my standard breakfast is the bomb! Pancakes (sometimes protein pancakes), topped with fruit or preserves and/or nuts or an apple on the side, and eggs and bacon. breakfast of champions!

    Ooh, thanks for the suggestion. I have a bunch of oatmeal that needs eating, and I already have the butter.

    On the other hand, Trader Joe's cioppino (new to me) - not good. Tomato broth too harsh, seafood ends up over cooked (and I subtracted time from their cooking directions) and salty ... OMG. I could hardly eat it for the salt.

    Finally got to open this

    Big thumbs up but... OMG how tiny a serving is. 3 tablespoons? Try 1.5. Glad I weigh my food. But very tasty. Really like the chocolate and yogurt coated pieces.

    Just tried Philadelphia Cream Cheese Pumpkin Spice cream cheese. Delish! I had it on a bagel thin...bad choice. Bagel thins, blah, regular bagels, yum. No more bagel thins for me.

    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?

    Yes! Being lactose intolerant cheese is somthing I miss ! I found Lindell's gratted lactose free cheese ! Yum - had it twice yesterday

    Hey everyone, I'm back and ready to give you some reviews! Get ready for a long post.
    I tried ThinSlim's Vanilla Cookie, Vanilla Muffin, and Vanilla Iced Cookie. Although I was disappointed in the pumpkin square, these were much better and I actually enjoyed them! However, for the price I'm not sure if I enjoyed them enough to order again without 50% off the sampler pack for first time orders, and I wouldn't say my sweet tooth has been satisfied in the same way as true desert would leave me feeling.
    Vanilla Cookie: Taste very close, if not identical, to angel food cake but slightly more dense like a sugar cookie and I LOVED IT. However, I did notice a slight bitter/chemically aftertaste to it.
    Vanilla Muffin: The color and texture is just like the cookie, I'm having déjà vu. Either I'm getting used to the taste or it's more subtle than the cookie, but it's still very very very close to being the same thing (just a different shape). Seriously, how are they different? Still slightly bitter/chemically, but also sweet and enjoyable for 40 calories.
    Vanilla Iced Cookie: I can't taste it anymore, they're all the same and I'm really regretting my all vanilla decision. The icing is mostly for texture I think because it's not as sweet as I was expecting (unless I'm immune by now). Three of these snacks was a worse decision than an entire pint of Arctic Zero. They're decent, I like them, but the aftertaste is weird and I'm starting to feel sick a bit.
    Overall, if you tried one you tried them all. They vary in shapes but truly have the same taste which becomes less appealing after the first treat. My next review will definitely not feature more than one dessert at a time, I can't do this again xD I miss real dessert, and at this point I would rather eat less but something more satisfying. I really hate this aftertaste, and it's almost becoming too sweet in the worst way.

    I picked these up today. I don't think they're new, but they are new to me. Delicious! One quarter-sized cookie is 20 calories. 0z8xjbsmzqnq.jpg
