    Can I just say I'm counting the days until I can get trader joe's ginger joe-joes? Unfortunately they seem to only come covered in white chocolate (ok, that's not the unfortunate part) in a mixed pack. They're all really good, but the ginger are to die for. And they weren't out until almost christmas last year. :sad:

    Biscoff spread and cookie butter are amazing. I haven't had either in a while though as you really can't eat them with anything.

    I guess I just don't get it. Like, yeah, it's spreadable cookies... But why?

    That's why I haven't tried it. No idea what I'd do with it.

    you eat it. and it's delicious.

    Lol. Well, I tasted it in their cheesecake bites and it was good, but probably too sweet for me on their own.

    I got a variety pack of joe joes last year and the ginger ones were the best...

    I have some HEB cookie butter, 2 for $4 right now for those interested, sitting in my cabinet. I've had Trader Joe's cookie butter sandwich cookies, but never the plain butter. I'm gonna wait until I finish my one of the other two PBs, JIF and dark chocolate wonderful, to crack one open.

    I bought a small bottle of this stuff because it was on clearance. It was good enough for my Oreos, and I was pretty okay with the taste. I'd pick it up again if it weren't super pricey normally.

    Trolli Sour Gummy Sharks were the Free Friday Coupon deal at Kroger a week or so ago. These aren't very sour, which is good for me, but they're also really bland. I've had nearly two servings, and only one or two sharks had any sugar. I'm gonna toss what I have left.

    These guys send me out a LOT of coupons a few weeks ago. I was a little worried when I was getting ready to pull some out because it looked a lot harder than I'm used to, but it was actually really nice! I think I'm going to make an Pop Tart sandwich with some soon.

    Am I the only one who thinks those look like something other than a shark?

    With some imagination... yeah. Especially the right one... lol.

    I tried the Ansi chocolate chip cheesecake bar today. It was pretty good. Again, I like the texture, but the flavour is fairly mild and doesn't actually taste like cheesecake. That's all the flavours of the cheesecake bars I got and I would summarize by saying B-up bars are tastier and have a similar texture, which (as I've said) is softer and smoother than Quest. But besides the strawberry, the cheesecake bars are nice if you want something with a mild flavour and smooth texture. I don't intend to buy more, though.

    XD

    I get what you're saying, but they just remind me of airplanes more than anything. Disappointing little planes...

    I just noticed this at my local David's Natural Market. Definitely an interesting choice of ingredients, but surprisingly very good (and by that I mean not horrific like I was expecting)! Tastes like Thanksgiving in a less salty jerky. Good, but probably not something I'd spend $3 on again xD

    Yeah, doesn't sound particularly appetizing.

    It's a little dry, but not as chewy as jerky; other than that it's very similar! 130 calories for the entire bar, 10g of protein, and 105mg of sodium, so not too bad at all in regards to macros

    Hmm. Looks... interesting, lol. I'm not sure I'd try it though...

    Went to Target. Bit bummed on the lack of some pumpkin stuff. No Fiber One bars (wanted to get more), no pumpkin cereal, and the Quaker pumpkin spice oatmeal doesn't seem to actually have any pumpkin in it...

    I did however find this, which is new to me and looks delicious

    And these, finally

    I tried the Chobani Pumpkin Harvest Crisp Flip and really liked it. Yesterday I tried the peanut butter one, and was not as crazy about it, I didn't like that it had a vanilla yogurt base.

    Agreed. Haven't tried the PB one. Still looking for the elusive pumpkin pecan one and the pumpkin cheesecake whips, but at this point I'm giving up on the latter, as I never found the keylime pie one (I only go to Shop Rite, Acme, Wegmans, and Target).

    Today I went to Giant to see which new products they had before I went to work.

    I bought Blue Diamond Pumpkin Spice Almonds

    Keebler Fudge Stripes Pumpkin Spice (they had these in an odd spot near the ice cream section)
    Giant Pumpkkin Cookies with Cheesecake Filling
    Enjoy Life Soft Baked Snickerdoodle (@vinegar_husbands these are diary free, nut free, & soy free in case you wanted to look them up)

    At Giant they had a section full of the Wild Friends Peanut Butter packets so I bought Sesame Cranberry, Vanilla Espresso Almond Butter, Cinnamon Raisin, Maple Sunflower Butter, & Honey Sunflower Butter.

    I bought some different bars to try & they included Santa Barbara Bar Cranberry White Chocolate, Lara Bar Cashew Cookie & their Alt Pumpkin Pie, & the Luna flavors Chocolate Cupcake & S'Mores

    Yeah that looks a bit odd, but almost like something you'd try once to see what it tastes like.
