My personal favourites are the Apple Pie, Banana Nut Muffin, Cinnamon Roll ones (and I guess the connecting factor there is "cinnamon"...) I've never had the peanut ones because my husband is super allergic and I don't want to accidentally kill him with kisses or something, lol.
I think most people like the cookie dough and white chocolate raspberry a lot, so those are safe bets too. Did you stick it in the microwave for 15 seconds? That seriously improves them too.0 -

Yes, I microwaved it after the first bite. I don't think I could've choked it down if I hadn't. I usually like peanut butter anything, but maybe I will find one I like in the bunch.
On the plus side, I replaced my usual granola bar with it and have not need a morning snack yet. I usually eat something else around 9:45.

I have definitely eaten dry hot chocolate mix, but I have also eaten dry cake mix. Yeah.
I have never eaten out of the trash as I'm a bit germophobic. However, I do have a trash-related confession for today: I threw out like 20 kg of my husband's expired protein powder/creatine this weekend without telling him and I have a feeling he's going to be mad when he does notice...but it expired in DECEMBER 2013 and it has been cluttering up my limited pantry space ever since and he has not made a protein shake in at least a year and a half. I don't regret it and I know if I'd asked him he would have been like "but it's so expeeeeeensive..." but it was also going to poison him probably so I don't care.
I've never drowned peanut butter but I've definitely thrown "extra" stuff right down the disposal instead of saving it so there was no chance I could go back and eat more of it.
I wear workout stuff at least twice, as I have only three sports bras, do laundry once weekly, and work out every day but Friday normally.
I've never worn a sauna suit but I did try one of those ab belts once and I also used to have a Thigh Master passed down from my mother, haha.
It probably would've tasted disgusting if he did make one now. You did the right thing
Right? Not like he would have noticed with all the almond butter, fruit, and yogurt he loads into his smoothies but still, it can't have been good. I know it was powder but it's still kinda dairy and if it had an expiry on it that probably means something...especially a nearly two-year-old expiry.
I'm glad I married a guy who's responsible with his money but sometimes I have to shake my head and tell him it's okay to get rid of stuff that's unusable even if it was expensive. I refuse to let him turn into a hoarder like I worry certain members of his family are headed.
For what it is worth, the health dept and USDA let us serve canned foods/dry goods at the soup kitchen for a year after it's "expiration" date. I think it's 6 months for frozen foods, but don't quote me on that. The protein powder needed to go.
Interesting. I tend to look at the "best by date" as a suggestion anyway.
There's a lot of research out there that suggests exactly that - that "best before" doesn't mean "inedible after" - but I'm pretty conservative with it and will toss anything I'm remotely suspicious about, especially dairy. My boss has been known to eat yogurt weeks past its expiry from her office fridge and I would NEVER. I clean out the fridge weekly and very little that's past date is ever allowed to remain. I'm aware that it's wasteful but I just can't deal with it. I do try really hard not to throw out food though and use everything FIFO like a restaurant walk-in
I will eat things like yogurt past the best before date if it was unopened & doesn't smell/look bad. I use the best before as a suggestion as well - besides, just because that date hasn't passed doesn't automatically mean it's good. I've opened milk and it's been bad, even though it was days before the expiry.
I've eaten yogurt weeks past the best before date. I survived!
It's like my mom once told me, the food can't read the label. It's not as if when that date gets here, the food is suddenly spoiled. The manufacturers have to be very conservative in the dates they put on the packaging.
I like what your mom said. Also, I get very, maybe even irrationally angry when milk expires before its expiration date. This tends to happen more with from a certain store, but it's still highly upsetting. Anyone else feel me on this?
Ha! I wonder if that store doesn't have their refrigerator set cold enough?
I gave up and started using almond milk. It lasts a long time before expiring...
My favorite is the Cashew Milk that is 25 calories. I hate, hate, hate wasting my calories on drinks when I could be eating more food.
What I've noticed with soy, almond, coconut, and cashew milk it that the cartons say on the side that they will stay fresh for 7-10 days after opening. So I always toss it after 10 if I haven't finished it yet...although I usually can finish it by then. To those of you that mentioned it lasts forever, do your cartons not say this or do you just ignore it and go by smell/taste?
I don't think I've ever noticed that on my cartons before. I usually go by smell & taste. I am so horrible at buying a few Almond/Cashew milks, & then forgetting they're in the basement refrigerator.
Lately, I've been using Walden Farms Caramel Syrup & mixing it with the milk.
I was excited to see they had the Egg Nogs back, & bought one of the Silk Soy Nogs.
I never noticed that before. We buy 3-packs of the 30 calorie almond milk and probably go through 2 half gallons every 3 days. We use it in our protein shakes and in our coffee, and my son uses it in his cereal.0 -

They are very good for this, even the not so tasty ones.
We've not found ANY of the peanut butter ones appealing. I second the cinnamon roll and banana nut muffin ones though. Apple pie I'm hit or miss, but I don't hate it. I also really like the vanilla almond crunch, but you just mentioned a nut allergy. Are almonds okay? (I hope so since they're in ALL the bars!)0 -

I think Melissa is just allergic to coconut so she should be fine (my husband is allergic to peanut but not most tree nuts so we're okay with most flavours too.)
Honestly, I don't even really eat them for the taste but just because 20g of protein for 200 calories is pretty unbeatable and they really do keep me full forever. I've started having half of one before my long runs on Saturdays instead of running fasted and I swear it is twice as easy to keep going past the second half, too.0 -

The ONLY peanut butter one I like is the peanut butter supreme. My other favorites (as stated many, many times) are cinnamon roll, cookies and cream, s'mores, cookie dough (is okay), and vanilla almond crunch. Mr. Mo and the daughter are in love with the pumpkin pie ones, but I don't like anything about them except the crunchy texture. I also do not care for the banana nut muffin (think it tastes like vomit) or the apple pie. And do not even get me started on the lemon cream pie. ( @quiksylver296 and I have gone back and forth on this as this is her favorite) Blech!

You know I hate lemon cream pie too, despite being a huge lemon lover. Totally tastes like Mr. Clean or something to me.
We're fighting about the banana one though. I love that one. Sigh.
I think the only one I haven't tried besides the peanut ones is Mixed Berry - has anyone tried it?
I'm getting progressively pickier about the chocolate ones too. I like s'mores, cookie dough, and cookies & cream well enough but I've only been buying boxes of double chocolate chunk and mint chocolate lately. I think it's the way they taste with my coffee in the morning that works for me.0 -

I found this flavor to be very seedy and dry. And by seedy, I mean, I felt like I was chewing on beads trying to chomp up the raspberry or whatever seeds are in there. Not worth it to me.
I may have to try the double chocolate chunk again, because that one was the first one I tried and I liked it well enough if I remember right.

Seriously, different strokes for different folks on the Quest bar topic. Speaking of, Quest has a SALTED CARAMEL protein powder that I need to try!!!0 -

Protein pancakes with that stuff would be delicious, I bet.
I don't buy powder anymore because smoothies kind of ick me out (too reminiscent of milk, which I loathe) but sometimes I'm tempted for the sake of stuff like that.0 -

Sheesh. I've tried the Quest bars and wasn't impressed, but I didn't try more than 3 or 4 flavors. I only eat protein bars a couple times a week (hubby eats more of them), but I just looked at the one I'm using. It's 190 calories and 10g of protein. I suppose I need to give the Quest bars another chance...0 -

Yes, I microwaved it after the first bite. I don't think I could've choked it down if I hadn't. I usually like peanut butter anything, but maybe I will find one I like in the bunch.
On the plus side, I replaced my usual granola bar with it and have not need a morning snack yet. I usually eat something else around 9:45.
They are very good for this, even the not so tasty ones.
We've not found ANY of the peanut butter ones appealing. I second the cinnamon roll and banana nut muffin ones though. Apple pie I'm hit or miss, but I don't hate it. I also really like the vanilla almond crunch, but you just mentioned a nut allergy. Are almonds okay? (I hope so since they're in ALL the bars!)
I think Melissa is just allergic to coconut so she should be fine (my husband is allergic to peanut but not most tree nuts so we're okay with most flavours too.)
Honestly, I don't even really eat them for the taste but just because 20g of protein for 200 calories is pretty unbeatable and they really do keep me full forever. I've started having half of one before my long runs on Saturdays instead of running fasted and I swear it is twice as easy to keep going past the second half, too.
Sheesh. I've tried the Quest bars and wasn't impressed, but I didn't try more than 3 or 4 flavors. I only eat protein bars a couple times a week (hubby eats more of them), but I just looked at the one I'm using. It's 190 calories and 10g of protein. I suppose I need to give the Quest bars another chance...
That's why they're worth it. I've never seen another bar with close to that for so few calories and so much fibre. It's my breakfast every single morning so it's worth it for me to have those kind of numbers. I'd probably still eat them if they tasted half as good.0 -
I can't eat any of the chocolate-y Quest Bars; they wreak havoc on my insides.0

Grapefruit diet
Atkins
Nutrisystem
Diet pills (back when they had ephedra in them)
I've never done anything except for MFP when I actually had weight that I needed to lose. All of that craziness was when I was trying to lose those "pesky 5 lbs".
I have done Atkins, Slim Fast, some kind of 10 day diet that required me to eat beets.... I would literally hang over the sink gagging trying to get those things down, tried the Raspberry Ketones, HCG (worked great, I am a fan of this if I could KEEP THE WEIGHT OFF), starving myself, starving myself with Dexatrim (when it was good it was AMAZING), and something recently with a bunch of pills you had to take, I can't remember what....
I have also bought Jane Fonda's workout tapes, the thigh master, PX90, Tapout, paid for multiple gyms, and paid for 5 days a week of cross fit for a year, that i probably went to 2x a week for 3 months. The money I have spent on dieting and exercise....
The best thing that has worked the longest?
MFP, Walking and you guys.
Ugh the beets thing...I never did that but this post reminded me that I tried to do the vinegar thing (where people drink vinegar to help lose weight). I could NOT drink that stuff without gagging. I gave up. I hate the smell/test of apple cider vinegar.
I've tried slim fast, some stupid diet pills, I own a treadmill that works as an extra space to hang clothes of course, and bought tapes etc. Only thing that has ever worked was counting calories for me.0 -

I have definitely eaten dry hot chocolate mix, but I have also eaten dry cake mix. Yeah.
I have never eaten out of the trash as I'm a bit germophobic. However, I do have a trash-related confession for today: I threw out like 20 kg of my husband's expired protein powder/creatine this weekend without telling him and I have a feeling he's going to be mad when he does notice...but it expired in DECEMBER 2013 and it has been cluttering up my limited pantry space ever since and he has not made a protein shake in at least a year and a half. I don't regret it and I know if I'd asked him he would have been like "but it's so expeeeeeensive..." but it was also going to poison him probably so I don't care.
I've never drowned peanut butter but I've definitely thrown "extra" stuff right down the disposal instead of saving it so there was no chance I could go back and eat more of it.
I wear workout stuff at least twice, as I have only three sports bras, do laundry once weekly, and work out every day but Friday normally.
I've never worn a sauna suit but I did try one of those ab belts once and I also used to have a Thigh Master passed down from my mother, haha.
It probably would've tasted disgusting if he did make one now. You did the right thing
Right? Not like he would have noticed with all the almond butter, fruit, and yogurt he loads into his smoothies but still, it can't have been good. I know it was powder but it's still kinda dairy and if it had an expiry on it that probably means something...especially a nearly two-year-old expiry.
I'm glad I married a guy who's responsible with his money but sometimes I have to shake my head and tell him it's okay to get rid of stuff that's unusable even if it was expensive. I refuse to let him turn into a hoarder like I worry certain members of his family are headed.
For what it is worth, the health dept and USDA let us serve canned foods/dry goods at the soup kitchen for a year after it's "expiration" date. I think it's 6 months for frozen foods, but don't quote me on that. The protein powder needed to go.
Interesting. I tend to look at the "best by date" as a suggestion anyway.
There's a lot of research out there that suggests exactly that - that "best before" doesn't mean "inedible after" - but I'm pretty conservative with it and will toss anything I'm remotely suspicious about, especially dairy. My boss has been known to eat yogurt weeks past its expiry from her office fridge and I would NEVER. I clean out the fridge weekly and very little that's past date is ever allowed to remain. I'm aware that it's wasteful but I just can't deal with it. I do try really hard not to throw out food though and use everything FIFO like a restaurant walk-in
I will eat things like yogurt past the best before date if it was unopened & doesn't smell/look bad. I use the best before as a suggestion as well - besides, just because that date hasn't passed doesn't automatically mean it's good. I've opened milk and it's been bad, even though it was days before the expiry.
I've eaten yogurt weeks past the best before date. I survived!
It's like my mom once told me, the food can't read the label. It's not as if when that date gets here, the food is suddenly spoiled. The manufacturers have to be very conservative in the dates they put on the packaging.
I like what your mom said. Also, I get very, maybe even irrationally angry when milk expires before its expiration date. This tends to happen more with from a certain store, but it's still highly upsetting. Anyone else feel me on this?
Ha! I wonder if that store doesn't have their refrigerator set cold enough?
I gave up and started using almond milk. It lasts a long time before expiring...
My favorite is the Cashew Milk that is 25 calories. I hate, hate, hate wasting my calories on drinks when I could be eating more food.
What I've noticed with soy, almond, coconut, and cashew milk it that the cartons say on the side that they will stay fresh for 7-10 days after opening. So I always toss it after 10 if I haven't finished it yet...although I usually can finish it by then. To those of you that mentioned it lasts forever, do your cartons not say this or do you just ignore it and go by smell/taste?
I don't think I've ever noticed that on my cartons before. I usually go by smell & taste. I am so horrible at buying a few Almond/Cashew milks, & then forgetting they're in the basement refrigerator.
Lately, I've been using Walden Farms Caramel Syrup & mixing it with the milk.
I was excited to see they had the Egg Nogs back, & bought one of the Silk Soy Nogs.
OMG, I hope this is a thing in Canada!0 -

We left a half gallon of organic milk opened in the fridge. We returned 3 months later from vacation and it was still good. My husband refuses to pay any attention to dates and will absolutely eat or use anything that looks/ smells good.
Mine too... some times I think he is going to die from some random old stuff he eats, but it never affects him.0 -

Argh. That is the worst especially when it is a good step day. Mine keeps dying every two days or so even though the app says it should still have about half a battery left. It isn't that old but I'm nervous that it isn't going to last much longer. Seems like the battery may be going already.

They changed the Quest Bar formula recently.
I noticed this in the last cookie dough bar I purchased.
I tried a sample of the protein powder a while back and love it. I'm debating picking some up on Black Friday0 -

The ONLY peanut butter one I like is the peanut butter supreme. My other favorites (as stated many, many times) are cinnamon roll, cookies and cream, s'mores, cookie dough (is okay), and vanilla almond crunch. Mr. Mo and the daughter are in love with the pumpkin pie ones, but I don't like anything about them except the crunchy texture. I also do not care for the banana nut muffin (think it tastes like vomit) or the apple pie. And do not even get me started on the lemon cream pie. ( @quiksylver296 and I have gone back and forth on this as this is her favorite) Blech!
You know I hate lemon cream pie too, despite being a huge lemon lover. Totally tastes like Mr. Clean or something to me.
We're fighting about the banana one though. I love that one. Sigh.
I think the only one I haven't tried besides the peanut ones is Mixed Berry - has anyone tried it?
I'm getting progressively pickier about the chocolate ones too. I like s'mores, cookie dough, and cookies & cream well enough but I've only been buying boxes of double chocolate chunk and mint chocolate lately. I think it's the way they taste with my coffee in the morning that works for me.
Mixed berry is my husband's favorite, and I don't like it. AND, YES, Lemon Cream Pie (aka Pledge flavor @MoHousdon) is my all-time favorite. And @lbuehler89 likes it, too!
Seriously, different strokes for different folks on the Quest bar topic. Speaking of, Quest has a SALTED CARAMEL protein powder that I need to try!!!
I was so excited for the salted caramel flavor but it was just okay in my opinion. Hopefully you guys like it better than I did.
I just use vanilla or chocolate flavor.0 -
