    I think this is my 2000th forum post! Glad I didn't waste it on derp in the main forums!

    That looks awesome. I like soft serve frozen yogurt. Usually not the other kind though.

    I call them Tagalongs. I thought PB Patty was the new name? Same with Carmel Delites instead of Samoas?

    OK,

    Day 1: All the pies

    Day 4: Snickerdoodles, Wine, and Ill-advised headstands
    Day 5: Grown up "shamrock shakes" (aka with booze)
    Day 6: Sweet Scoops Candied Ginger frozen yogurt, A+ will nom again....but, beware the 78g serving size...only 160 calories but I'm used to the 1/2 cup listed as 100g, not 78. This stuff must be dense? IDK. Yummy, though.

    They switched bakers, changed the names, and then switched back to the old bakers. So they're Tagalongs and Samoas again. Thankfully, because they just didn't taste right when they switched.

    Yeah - I think different parts of the country are supplied by different bakers...some use the "old" names, some use the "new" names. Having no sisters, I wasn't very well versed in all things GS cookie until I had daughters...

    Seeing as you're in St. Louis, it's possibly the same bakery. Missouri Bakery? (Yes, I creeped your profile. I've never heard of any other Italian bakery that has something called chocolate drops...had to be done!)

    I'm so confused though. Did I miss a day somewhere? I see some of you on day 7 but I started the first day and it's only day 6 for me.

    And chocolate covered pound cake sounds heavenly right now.

    Today would be day 7, right? I had mine for breakfast.


    I didn't know there was an apple pie Talenti!! Must find. I'm obsessed with apple pie flavor everything.

    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.
