    So good and tasted exactly like cookie dough. It is almost bizarre how realistic it tastes. I felt like violet from charlie and the chocolate factory haha. I have also tried their birthday cake and gingerbread flavor and both were really good.

    The flavor only last for a little bit though, then it tastes boring. Fun to try and I loved it, but not something I would buy again and again.

    I don't know how I feel about Cookie Dough gum?

    I do remember some of the Extra Dessert gums having a tasty flavor so who knows?

    Where'd you find it?

    If Giant ever gets any of the Sheep yogurts I'll have to give them a try.

    I wish they still had more of the Angie's Sugar Cookie popcorn or basically any of the holiday limited edition flavors. So good.

    Although not technically new, it's a great seasonal item I look forward to and now they are here. The Thomas Cranberry English Muffins.

    I am normally not a cranberry fan, but these are delicious. I also spread a wedge of light laughing cow Swiss cheese on these. It's amazing! It's great with butter (or a good substitute ) or brie cheese (the laughing cow is a lesser calorie option).

    I just found is type of kale. I don't know if it's the type or the brand, but the flavor is milder from other kale I have bought before and I like it a lot more! I use in scrambled eggs and turkey breast chili. I like this flavor so much that I am going to eat this in salads too, which I normally don't like!

    My new fav is a yogurt by Noosa....it's strawberry rhubarb....it's thick and creamy and the fruit adds a touch of sweetness!

    I tried the mango cone crisp Chobani Simply 100 crunch. The mango pieces are indeed pretty hard - not quite break-your-tooth levels, but definitely requires some caution. Again, I'm not super impressed. It's totally edible and a good attempt for 100 calories, but the yogurt is kind of boring. I like it better than the strawberry, but would rather have a more flavourful and slightly higher calorie greek yogurt without the mix-ins, or save up for a flip or Muller if I want one with mix ins (or make my own, for that matter). I won't get another.

    I've had some nasty experiences with mango flavored yogurt, but I love this.

    I love the Redwood yogurts too! We always sell out of the quarts at work, but no one ever buys the little single-serve cups (our customers are too conscious of added sugar) so they always go out of date and I always get a bunch for free. I've literally gotten entire cases of that stuff when no one bought it. Still perfectly good to eat and everything! I don't know why the girl that does the weekly grocery order keeps ordering them, but I'm glad she does! Saves me money. :)

    I was disappointed in those. Tasted a bit too tart/bitter for me I guess. I didn't have the apple pie one much either though.

    This thread makes me want to try Noosa again though. I wasn't impressed the first time but who knows?

    Sweet Earth Protein Lover's and Baja breakfast burritos. 20+ grams of protein, vegetarian, and natural ingredients. Great tasting, filling on the go breakfast.

    Maybe these can tide me over until the cinnamon bun Oreos show up.

    Heck, I still need to try the hot cocoa Chips Ahoy. I hope I'm not too late...

    I'd try the salted caramel one. I have a hard time moderating myself with Pepperidge Farm cookies though.

    I seen Giant had some of the Russell Stover eggs out. I didn't see any flavors I wanted so I passed.

    Every time I go to the Super Center I have to look at the cookie aisle to see if they're there yet.

    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.

    The chips arn't terrible, but you should really stay away from protein bars and protein chips unless you need them to meet macros. They are processed and a lot of protein bars have TONS of sugar and artificial crap. Also, they has soy which can be bad for women's estrogen levels (horrible cramps and horrible periods, for example). I buy PURE protein bars, which the first ingredients are all whey proteins and they have 2g of sugar.

    Found these and love them! I didn't want the higher calories of the new Chobani, so I was glad to find this Dannon L&F. So delish!

    I like the bars as a quick convenient snack, but not every day, but I really despised the flavor of the chips!

    As for the cinnamon oreos, the brownie batter were a Walmart exclusive too, right? They eventually showed up in Kroger and Target.

    I actually walk in Target most every work day because of the weather and EVERY TIME I walk by the cookies, I look. EVERY day.

    Awwwww really? I love the cheddar and and sour cream flavor. I think they taste closest to the real chip counterpart.

    Finally found and tried the Blue Bunny Holi-doodle Ice Cream and OMG total game changer! So delish. Yummy cinnamon and frosting swirls with crunchy sugary bits. YUM.

    For the South Texas folks - Also tried the HEB Candy Cane 2wisters. They were better than expected. Kind of reminded me of a Girl Scout Thin Mint cookie - just less fudgy. :)

    Ok this is good!

    23428660273_18f65c79b8_o.jpg

    Will definitely buy these again. 180 calories is easier to fit in than the 200+ of the Chobani flips variety (plus they don't come in this flavor).

    Sure, you can probably make it at home yourself, but heck.


    ETA: has anyone tried the new Plenti with oatmeal yet? I don't like the texture of the regular Plenti but I'm curious about those. Might pick one up to try it out.

    I've never actually cooked beets. I guess I should try to roast it...

    I just found a brand called Walden Farms that has all kinds of dressings and etc. I am going to head to Walmart to pick up a few dressing. Can't wait to see how it taste!

    I'll stick them into my dinner sometimes. They're pretty good raw.

    I like those too, I am annoyed with them though....a serving is half a cookie, I am not a half cookie person :#

    Do NOT try the "peanut spread" ugh. Disgusting! I wasted SO much money on their products. The pancake syrup isn't too bad though.
