    I liked the silk almond nog just fine, but the Califia brand almond nog is significantly thicker and creamier - more like real egg nog!

    Thanks, I'll keep an eye out! I've seen that brand, but never noticed a nog.

    Halo Tops Chocolate ice cream is pretty good. I just found this link, but I haven't seen the other favors:

    Found at Trader Joe's: Spindrift Seltzer made with raspberries (puree and juice) and fresh squeezed limes... No sugar added (no fake sugar either) for 10 calories. Soo refreshing and good! I usually drink Croix sparkling water when I want something bubbly but these are muuuch better. :)

    Tried Kay's Protein Puffs Almond Delight. Very good. 125 cals, 12 grams protein.

    I love Bobo Oat Bars. They're not much better than cookies in the nutrition department and are pretty high in calories, though, so I don't have them often.

    I bought this the other week at work when we first got it in. It's pretty good! I've been using it for mug cakes by adding cocoa powder and chocolate chips, but I imagine that I would make good pancakes as well. It's made with a blend of cassava, almond, and coconut flours. There's powdered egg in the mix, so you only have to add water. It's a little bland plain, but with some blueberries or syrup or something, it's perfect.

    For those that have gone into Trader Joe's recently- is the pumpkin spice cookie butter still in stock? I was pretty grossed out by the idea at first, but it makes more sense to me now that I've tried actual cookie butter, which is very tasty.

    There was still some here last week but there are a lot of things that have been gone for weeks, so it might be hit and miss. I bought another jar, honestly, just totally loves the stuff (and wish I could fit it in more often).

    My fiance just bought two jars on Wednesday. He polished off the last jar and I'd only gotten one spoonful. This time, I labeled one of the jars with my name...

    I just saw these on GNC's site. I don't want to buy a box without trying a single first, but I like MuscleTech's protein powder and would love to have a tasty cookies and cream bar to replace Quest (I don't like the new formula). They have a 5 star rating, but all the reviews seem of questionable authenticity...

    I must be lucky because my GNC seems to have the old recipe still.

    Have you tried the Victory bars?

    Yesterday I used my GNC coupon & bought:

    Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, two boxes of Cookies & Cream, a few different Combat Crunch bars, & a box of Lenny & Larry's White Chocolate Macadamia (the Lenny & Larry's were mostly free from the $20.00 coupon).

    I wish GNC would get The Snickerdoodle flavor in. It seems they only have the aforementioned & Peanut Butter in the stores I've been too. They also rarely ever have any boxes of Combat Crunch which ticks me off since I wanted to get another two boxes of The Birthday Cake flavor.

    Maybe I'll look next Friday/Monday to see which sales will be going on.

    Pure Fusion bars.
    I have been on the hunt for a quest bar replacement and these are EXACTLY the same. The ingredients are the same down to the the ISOs for fiber. I've tried...

    Chocolate Hazlenut: Like nutella, so good with chunks of nuts in it
    Chocolate caramel: Better than a brownie. Kind of tastes like luna bar caramel brownie but in quest bar form
    Pistachio pumpkin: I love pistachios so this was wonderful!
    Cinnamon roll: Not exactly like my favorite quest bar cinnamon roll, but very close. It was more cinnamony and I liked the pecans in it compared to quest. Was my favorite out of all the ones I tried!
    PB&J: Fantastic! Exactly what I wanted, better than quest PB&J
    Vanilla PB: Very good, very nice and peanut buttery. Nice bar because quest I didnt like the peanut butter one was very boring, but this one is fantastic.

    I just wish they had my second fav flavor white chocolate raspberry!

    Hmm I should look into those...

    This was very good and melted very well. Had a nice mozzarella flavor to it and definitely worth the price compared to how expensive comparable products are at other stores.

    I tried the Quest Pumpkin Pie protein bar just for the heck of it. I would like it a lot more if it didn't have the crunchy bits. The inside was pretty decent, but the crunchy bits reminded me of the Power Crunch protein bars. It was super chalky. :s
    The bar I picked up did weigh 60 grams though!

    I also had a mini Candy Cane Oreo Blizzard yesterday... paired with what was left of my mint Oreo Thins. :P
    It was really good! I'm very happy after that lackluster pumpkin pie.

    Just picked these up. Not usually a seasonal tea person, but after trying Celestial Gingerbread Spice I have been curious.

    The salted caramel one didn't taste like caramel at all to me. Just tastes like black tea. It's fine, but nothing special. I'm in love with Trader Joe's vanilla and cinnamon seasonal tea though!

    *This isn't my picture*

    I love these Giant Peppermint Cookies! The chocolate cookie is similar to an Oreo & the inside is a nice Peppermint flavor with a bit of a crunchy taste.

    This isn't new since I remember seeing these last year, but decided on a whim last week to purchase this & the Sugar Cookie Toast Crunch. The cereal has a slight Sugar Cookie taste, but not enough to buy another box.

    If anyone sees this cereal let me know

    Tops had Talenti on sale 3 for $10. I balked at the price at first, since Perry's was ALSO on sale 3 for $10 ha ha. However, I have been wanting to try Talenti for a long time now.

    Last night, I had some of the Caramel Cookie Crunch Gelato:
    talenti%2Bcaramel%2Bcookie%2Bcrunch%2Bgelato%2Bpint%2B2014.jpg

    OMG sooooooo good. <3 Soft/creamy and not too sweet.

    I am excited to try the other flavors I picked up as well:

    Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Gelato

    Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Gelato

    I had trouble leaving the Pistachio behind, but unfortunately you have to buy at quantity at Tops to get the sale price. :(
