    Sea-Salt-Caramel-Pint-500x653.png

    Tried this. It was good but I thought it was very rich, I may do a half serving next time.

    I will definitely be trying other flavors :) And it makes the price tag a little better when I consider I could be satisfied with less of it at once.

    I buy it on sale honestly. Target has it at 2 for $7 right now and Shop Rite often has it for $2.88 if you have one around.

    Some flavors are not great though (I think most people agree that oatmeal cookie and chocolate chip cookie dough are mediocre, the rest depends on your tastes).

    I've been on a bit of a protein hype the past few weeks and was really looking around for some good bars and found Quest Bars, I bought the 'Cookies and Cream' and 'Double Chocolate Chunk'. They're horrible, they taste like artificial sweetener and salt, and I can never stomach more than half a bar in one sitting, I've found that they're more palatable when cold, although that means they're harsh on your teeth. But despite all that, they're really good for you, and not a bad (even if horrid tasting) filling snack for on the go.

    I'm interested in trying the Quest Protein chips though, and have bought some BBQ flavoured ones which I'm still waiting on in the post. Fingers crossed they taste better than the bars, and also better than 'Protein Bites' by Novo which carry a very strange taste regardless of flavour.

    Man I love quest bars, cookies and cream is one of my faves. Smores in my new quest bar love though.


    I love the cookies & cream one! The chocolate chip one taste amazing when heated for 4 seconds in the microwave.

    The protein chips= disgusting.

    I like the chips better than the bars.

    I know everyone seams to be talking about food here but I found a neat little Cutting/Scales Board from Bed Bath & beyond. The cutting board/scale is named, "Fit & Fresh Cutting Board-White". Check it out on their website. :)

    That's pretty cool. Typically I just use a plate and my scale to cut veggies because I can just pop plates in the dishwasher instead of having to wash it by hand.

    I like the bars a lot but the chips and protein powder are better for me fiberwise. (Yeah, I know. I live in Bizarro World.)

    I saved the caramels for the end the first time I tried this. I love it!

    My favorite Quest product is the protein powder. The chips are okay, but their flavors are a little too mild for me.

    I tried Hammond Pigs N' Taters chocolate bar today and was very pleased with it. The bacon bits had the perfect amount of salt.

    I tried Lays New York Ruben and had the same problem with them that I do with Quest Chips, the flavor is just too mild. Maybe I'm just not a huge fan of classic potato chips anymore? I still have the Greektown Gyro flavor to try.

    If we're talking about things for the kitchen, I bought a cutlery cleaner and love it. It really makes the crusty forks my family leaves behind easier to deal with.

    I've been eating the Tolerant lentil pasta - I have a wheat allergy - it's a bit expensive but tastes good & is high in fiber

    Indeed - super expensive (compared to regular pasta), but pretty tasty and lots of fiber.


    Another yummy product is Cider Mill Pumpkin Butter. http://www.louisburgcidermill.com/?page_id=1936

    On a light multigrain english muffin - delicious!

    I like the bars a lot also but I like the crunch of the chips even more. I also can eat just one bag of chips but with cookie dough bars I want them all in ma belly.

    No kidding. I wasn't eating so much ice cream before for sure. But I guess it's easier to fit in than the cakes and chocolate bars I used to eat instead.

    The peach-pear La Croix is great as a mixer with white wine. Lightens up the wine, cuts the sweetness of a sweet white, makes it a little bubbly.

    I recently bought Skinny Girl Lime and Salt microwave popcorn. 160 calories for the whole bag (smaller than a traditional bag of micro popcorn, but felt like a good amount to me). I really liked it, but I am also obsessed with lime flavor (Lime Wheat Thins, anyone???). I believe this also comes in a butter and sea salt flavor.

    Bless you. I've been stalking the cookie aisle of every store I walk into. I've kept to my promise of only buying one of the S'mores, but am not putting a number limit on these babies. I have the Oreo Thins and like those.

    I also found some blueberry Quark. Only one of the Targets in the area stocks a few flavors. Also got strawberry and mint chocolate. The flavor is more subtle than Greek yogurt and I like the smoothness.

    This thread is becoming a big part of my shopping list lately ...

    I think this could need a little bit more coconut flavoring, but it's strangely good.

    The vanilla flavor doesn't seem to be as strong in this compared to their no sugar added equivalent. Regardless, it's still tasty.

    I don't know how new it is but I picked up some powdered peanut butter at the store the other day because I had never seen it before. I still have not used it so I don't know if I will like it or not

    Is it PB2 or Betty Lou's?

    It is jif. I did not know any of the other brands and I had a Coupon For The Jif

    Trader Joes Popcorn in a Pickle. This new product is great. Open the bag and it's like smelling a jar of pickles. And it tastes great. Thumbs up!

    The reviews I've read said you either love it or hate it, lol. I'm not even trying, but bacon with sweets is not my thing.


    Also got to buy that pickle popcorn for my husband, lol.

    Dang, I guess I'm glad I forgot about the bacon bar when I went to Trader Joe's.

    I picked up some of their plantain chips and the brownie crisps posted a few pages ago, but haven't had the chance to try either.
