    People were raving about these....”OMG, there’s only 4 ingredients and you can pronounce them all, and they are soooo good and good for you!!”
    They are a disgusting, gummy calorie bomb.
    I rarely spit out food, but this was too gross.

    Oooo not the cinnamon spice but I really like the chocolate peanut butter. But I stick to the kids version which is like 130 calories.

    The pumpkin flavored ones were good. The rest were meh

    Another vote for Halo Top! Really, anything with artificial sweeteners is just bad

    I kind of liked the vegetarian frozen pizza from lidl uk, and it kind of fitting in my calories. Here in NL I find nothing like that. Only vegetarian pizza has mushrooms and/or no dough base and far too many cals. Like every frozen pizza here! I could possibly eat 3/5 of one for calories but still be hungry :s

    I'm in your camp. I had to finally throw the package away after a year of it sitting in my cupboard. I'm not a big fan of seafood, so that could be one reason I don't like nori.

    Kirkland protein bars. I kept trying and just could not do it. Vega protein powder, probably one of the worst things I've had, just the thought makes me sick.

    Kirkland protein bars... I'm 50/50. Weird aftertaste on the cookie dough IMO. The Brownie is pretty good.

    What?? Chocolate chip cookie dough flavor is my favorite of theirs! So good in my opinion. It is even better if you put it in the microwave for about 20 seconds to soften them up. :smile:

    I prefer Quest. The tapioca fiber is off-putting :/

    Did I already say? Frozen lobster. You can't find it any good. Not sure why. At $29/lb. it should be great but never is.

    That's funny, I was bummed because I wanted one flavor from each case and bought the cookies and cream and brownie combo on vacation. I was the opposite, disappointed in brownie but liked cookies and cream.

    Veggie straws.
    My parents and my sister were telling me how GOOD they are...luckily, I tried them at my sister's house before buying a bag. They taste like styrofoam packing peanuts.

    I bought then hoping they would be like Quest, and believe me I tried everything I think I added peanut butter on top and still couldn't do it. But to be honest ever since Quest changed their formula a few years back it's just never been the same. :(
