    This one is really really good. At first I thought it didn't have enough mix-ins but the mix-ins are really spicy so I actually think it's probably fine that there aren't as many. It tastes a lot like ginger and a little like cinnamon. I probably won't get it again just because it's hard for me to work in 310 calories per serving these days, but I still really really enjoyed it.

    Cadbury egg cupakes tasted MUCH better this time. I used my own cake recipe and went with the vanilla cake and chocolate buttercream. However, the egg still sank even with putting it as close to the surface as I could. The only thing I can think to try is putting it in part way through baking but I'm pretty sure that'll make the cake fall. So idk. But at any rate they were delicious.

    How are they? I've seen them and been tempted but I'm worried it's not going to be worth the calories.

    I saw a how to video for one of those cakes with rainbow shapes inside, and she poured a little but in the pan, baked for 10 minutes then placed the inside and poured the rest of the batter. You could try something similar while adjusting the time. They might get a weird texture or break in half easily. At least they'd still be tasty experiments.

    Not too bad. I opted for them over the whole one because this is 290 for a slice and 1/5 of the whole is 400+. I prefer Sara Lee, but I was in a hurry and just grabbed them before looking at others.

    Their Hershey's pie is amazing, though. I used to get them occasionally at Burger King.

    Huh. Maybe I'll try that. I mean they taste good regardless, they just aren't very pretty atm.

    That's my daughter's favorite breakfast except with sausage and cheese. Well other than the cinnamon rolls.

    Hy Vee (midwest chain) has some pretty good store branded stuff...I buy quite a bit of it.

    Their store brand greek yogurt is comparable to Fage (IMO) - I like it 100x better than Chobani

    Truth be told, the real reason I chose it was they had a fuel saver on it this week (when you buy certain items you get a cents off per gallon credit on gas)...I went in intending to get the sea salt caramel Talenti. I'll just get that next time!
