    Update on my choice for the night. Scratch that comment about not having much of an appetite tonight, because when the appetite appeared, it was raging.
    100 g Talenti Hazelnut and a better-than-s'mores - a graham cracker with peanut butter, nutella, and toasted mini marshmallows. My mouth and my stomach are very, very happy now.

    The way to Acrylics' heart is with s'mores.

    I'm sorry if this has been asked before but are y'all gonna do this challenge next month, too? I've just joined MFP and find this super intriguing.

    If there is, I have no idea what else could be done since sweets covers so much of the spectrum...I just hope it will not be a savory version as I am not a savory snack food sort of person. 30 days of unusual foods would be cool though, like trying to eat the most interesting and less generic foods...exotic would maybe be the correct word.

    Anyone try the Turkey Hill Sweet Potato ice cream yet?

    I haven't found it yet, and I went back to Safeway and looked to see if they still had the butter brickle, and it was all gone!

    That makes me so sad they were out of Butter Brickle, I was looking forward to living vicariously through you!

    I found the Sweet Potato!!! Weis had Turkey Hill on sale 2/$5, so I got that and the Junior Mint "dairy dessert". I didn't try that one, but I had to try the Sweet Potato. It ain't no Jeni's, but I'm thinking I need to get more while it's still on sale. It was really good. Still no Butter Brickle, but I'll keep looking. :smile:

    oooh! nice! glad to hear the sweet potato ice cream is good . if i wasn't still working on the massive quantities of ice cream in my freezer i'd pick some up now. I hope that by the time i have room for it they still sell it.

    I'm officially out of baked goods. I hope they fix my oven tomorrow because otherwise I'll be going into withdrawals. :sad:

    What's wrong with it? I had to replace the bottom element on mine. That was an easy fix. I hope you're back in business soon!

    That's all it is. I told them on the phone so they could order the part and everything so I'm hoping they come ready.

    I would've fixed it for ya for free! Darn distance.

    I don't know if I should be sad or happy for the fact that there's more ice cream than anything else in my freezer right now. They had a chunky peanut butter that sounded good. I hope they'll bring back Whoopie Pie. I would plant my face right inside the tub. Who needs a spoon?!

    Day 1 - Wild Ophelia - Salted Chowchilla Almond. Already discovering new things. Wild Ophelia is a local company to Chicago with a handful of "unique flavors" - http://www.wildophelia.com/. Kind of difficult to review, but it is a nice balance of sweet milk chocolate bar, smokey chopped almonds and sea salt. Also, if you haven't ever tried it,... I highly recommend freezing the chocolate bars prior to consumption.
    Day 2 - Chocolove - Dark Chocolate w/ Crystallized Ginger. Nom Nom Nom, big ginger fan over here. Rich Dark Chocolate taste (65%) with just enough sweetness. Spicy and sweet ginger pieces throughout, but not overpowering.
    Day 3 - Wild Ophelia - Peanut Butter & Banana - Well, that was delightful :).... Milky chocolaty chocolate with a creamy peanut butter and banana taste (derrrr). Quite macro friendly too. Only 300 cals for the whole bar!
    Day 4 - Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Raisins & Pecans. OMGAHHHHH so good! Rich dark chocolate flavor with a crunch texture from the pecans. I also froze the bar per usual for extra added crunch! A number of gooey and sweet raisins all throughout the bar to top it off. YUM!
    Day 5 - Wild Ophelia Smokehouse BBQ Potato Chips. This was essentially just a crunchy dark chocolate bar with a very mild occasional crunch/smokey BBQ flavor. Kinda reminded me of a nestle crunch bar, just not as textured. You do get a BBQ chip after taste though... pretty unique. I quite enjoyed it :)
    Day 6 - Trader Joe's Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Bites. Figured I'd switch it up today and try something different. Had 3 of the mini bars. Creamy cheesecake bites with blueberry and graham cracker sprinkles. Very tasty, but too small and not worth the cals for the size IMO. Also Greek Yogurt bowl with 450g Fage, 350g Frozen Blueberries, 70 Dark Chocolate Crunch Cheerios & 30g TJ Crunchy Cookie Butter
    Day 7 - Chocolove Salted Peanut in Milk Chocolate. This one was great :).... nice mix of creamy, salty, and sweet (giggity). Frozen of course for extra added to texture to the peanut halves found throughout :P. Also, another Greek Yogurt Bowl for preworkout with Fage, Dark Chocolate Cheerios and All Bran.
    Day 8 - Chocolove Raspberries in Dark Chocolate - Yummy combination of the dark chocolate flavor with a tartness of freeze dried raspberry pieces all throughout which provide a nice crunchy texture. Enjoyed frozen as usual
    Day 9 - Breyer's Blasts! Strawberry Cheesecake w/ Lucky Charms. Hah! Nothing fancy going on here... was super lazy and kinda screwed up my macros so I needed to opt for something on the lower fat side. I remembered I still had some of the Breyer's left over from before starting the 30 day pint a day challenge. This combo was pretty good! 339g Breyer's w/ 57g Lucky Charms.
    Day 10 - A whole buncha stuff. Finished off the remaining 3 TJ Blueberry Cheesecake Icecream bites. Also had 4 Cups Cappuccino Kefir topped w/ All Bran & 110g Vanilla Chex, and 3 Honey Nut Rice Cakes topped w/ Cinnamon Bun Whey spread. Lazypostworkoutprebedmeal/10
    Day 11 - Lindt Dark Hazelnut. Made a quick grab for a candy bar while across the street at Walgreens. Hadn't had Lindt candy in a while do I decided to give it a whirl. Not too bad... standard Dark Chocolate taste, more on the sweet side though. Sectioned into 3 portions with a hazelnut and some sort of mousse like filling inside. Also had some Dark Chocolate Crunch Cheerios.
    Day 12 - Fannie May Pixies - Made another quick stop across the street from work at Walgreens today because I'm going to be busy later. Opted for the Pixies since it's been years since I've had anything by them. Not a fan of mint meltaway's so I opted for the Pixies. Figured I couldn't go wrong with a combo of pecans, caramel, and chocolate. I was correct.
    Day 13 - Chocolove Toffee & Almonds in Milk Chocolate. Pretty good, but a little too sweet for my liking... Personally, I'm a bigger fan of Dark Chocolate so the combo of toffee and milk chocolate was quite extensive. Nice crunch and salt from the almonds though. I would recommend this one if you're a fan of milk chocolate & toffee.
    Day 14 - Chocolate Truffle Kefir topped with Vanilla Chex & Triple Decker Toasted Salted Almond Butter/Sea Salted Caramel Truffle Sandwich. How's that one? Ok so.... The Kefir was a let down. The flavor sounded like it would kick *kitten* in theory, but it didn't even taste like chocolate.. thankfully the Vanilla Chex was there as a savior. I need to just sticky with the fruity flavors because the vanilla, chocolates, cappuccino etc all suck! On to the sandwich... marvelous! Used three slices of Martin's Potato bread and lathered two of the slices with TJ Salted almond butter. Placed two Sea Salted Caramel Truffles and then put it on my foreman grill for about 2 mins like a panini maker. Perfecto :D
    Day 15 - Peanut Butter Brownie - This is actual a store bought brownie from the Bakery section. They had a few different flavors to select from, Cookie n Cream, PB, 2x Chocolate, etc. So, being a PB predator I figured it would be a great buy. A+ :P..... Moist, chewy and peanut buttery. So good, especially for a store bought one.
    Day 16 - Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Truffle Bar - Very rich Dark Chocolate flavor. Quite yummy and filling, but nothing out of the ordinary... not much else to say about this one!
    Day 17 - 2 Sea Salted Caramels, w/ 120g Vanilla Chex. Nothing special today... was in a hurry last night so I planned poorly and had to scrap together dem macros.
    Day 18 - Peanut Butter Brownie - Repeat here, so no pics. Have 2 of em left and need to finish them off.
    Day 19 - Yasso Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt (whole box). Posted pic of whole dinner... 6 eggs of 683g yellow potato, 4 Yasso Greek Yogurt Vanilla Bean bars, 64g salted almond butter on 2 Martin's potato rolls, and 36g Vanilla Chex (not pictured)
    Day 20 - Chocolate Truffle Kefir, PB Brownie & PB Cheerios Bowl of Deliciousness.
    Day 21 - Chocolove Cherries & Almond in Dark Chocolate. Good one! Not overly sweet, with a handful of different textures. crunchy almonds, chewie cherry pieces and additional crunch from frozen chocolate. Really enjoyed this one from the Chocolove line.
    Day 22 - Kozyshack Cinnamon Raisin Rice Pudding w/ Cinnamon Bun Dymatize Whey. Spotted this at the grocery store so I decided to give it a whirl. Been a while since I had Rice Pudding and this one looked yummy. I had it as a post workout "meal" so I decided to throw in some extra Cinnamon Bun Whey. Great combo!
    Day 23 - Blue Bunny Flan Ice Cream - Good creamy texture as usual with all Blue Bunny Ice Cream. Not that big of a fan of the flavor though... some of the caramel swirl had an icy texture too it, which was kinda weird. Not bad, but certainly not my favorite. Oh well.
    Day 24 - 4 Hawaiian Bread Rolls & Fage Greek Yogurt dusted with Gingerbread Granola & Two Sea Salted Caramel Truffles. For the pre-workout :P
    Day 25 - Edy's German Chocolate Cake Spectacular - Very Good! It ranks below the Talenti German Chocolate cake, but this is quite tasty especially for 150 cals per serving. Rich Chocolate base with a very creamy texture, cake pieces, coconut flakes and a caramel swirl. It's a seasonal item, so if you find it and haven't had it... give it a go!
    Day 26 - 4 Confetti Cupcake Poptarts - I'll spare you guys the picture since everyone knows what they look like. They were tasty as fuark tho. As I mentioned earlier, I kinda screwed up my macros and had like 300+ carbs left for my second meal with only like 30g protein.. so I needed something high carb/low protein. Enter poptarts.

    Day 22: Mom's lemon cake with raspberries and whipped cream
    Day 23: Angel food cake with sliced strawberries
    Day 24: Angel food cake with raspberries
    Day 25: Angel food cake with raspberries. Yeah, um, I like dis.

    love the berries on angel food w/whipped cream! My go-to is a strawberry, blackberry & blueberry mix, but maybe i'll try raspberries next time.
    Oooh, yeah, that sounds good. I like blackberries and raspberries together. We only get good blackberries for a short season here -- most of the time they're either hard and sour, or moldy right off the truck. But when they're good... mmmmmmmmm.

    Angel food cake, it's delicious... and I love that I could eat a whole one for breakfast and stay under calories if I wanted to, and still hit my protein macro for the day.

    If you can find the Cool Whip Frosting (they have vanilla and cream cheese flavors) I HIGHLY recommend it with the angel food cake and berries. It is so much better than just regular cool whip/whipped cream. I also sometimes heat up a little lemon curd and drizzle that over the angel food cake, cool whip frosting, and berries... YUM!

    Ohh, I was thinking angel food cake for tonight. Adding more toppings to the grocery list...I love lemon curd and haven't had it in ages.



    Francl27, I'm so glad you found some of the hazelnut! I still can't decide if I like it or the salted caramel better, but it's amazing stuff, isn't it?

    Oh man yes. I love hazelnut everything, so it's not really a surprise. Really glad, I never thought I could find some hazelnut ice cream.

    Now if I could find some apricot ice cream or sorbet, I'd be set. Don't know why it's not a common flavor in the US...

    They're fantastic with ice cream. I have some chocolate/caramel ones to go with the sea salt caramel gelato. I'm just not sure what to do with the brown sugar ones, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.
