    I honestly think you guys do have peanut butter flowing through your veins :lol: I can think of exactly 4 peanut/butter chocolate combination foods here in Aus, and that's it, and a couple of them taste horrible!
    I would do just about anything to try PB cheerios, we do not even have one peanut buttery cereal :( I would be in awe if I got to shop in your grocery stores.

    Does pb2 mix into warm things? Some in hot chocolate could be good when it's cold out if it actually mixes in.

    I love the chocolate rice cakes! I spread a little peanut butter on and yummy! You can have a chocolate and peanut butter snack for about 100 calories depending on how much peanut butter you spread on. Some times I go for it and use the whole 2 tablespoons serving :wink:

    The PB cheerios (and the store brand knockoffs) are AWESOME! Not to gloat or anything. :)

    Ok, sometimes I'll have a corn thin (it's a rice cake but half the size height wise) with a tablespoon of whipped jiff peanut butter that runs to just under 100 calories. You could also sprinkle on some mini chocolate chips if you want.

    Also, Trader Joe's sells mini peanut butter cups. (Not like reeses miniature size altho they have those too but MINI mini).) I have 6 of them every day for under 50 calories (it's like 47). I actually kind of like them better than reeses. The mini peanut butter cups are just a shade less sweet than the reeses.

    Haha I lack the motivational skills to work for myself. I even called the company yesterday, and they have zero plans to bring out the PB cheerios, were stuck with plain, the low sugar one and honey nut.

    Solution = puffed quinoa + melted coconut oil + dark cocoa powder + a little bit of melted peanut butter + chia and ground flaxseed. Add a bit of maple syrup, if it's not sweet enough.

    Mix it up and roll it into little balls, like a healthy, tasty rice crispy treat :smiley:

    I remember that commercial. Do you think, after they co-mingled their chocolate and peanut butter, that they....um....wait, this is a family site, right? :) (But with the chocolate and peanut butter?) :)

    If you have the calories and have met your nutrient goals for the day, eat the Reese's. I almost always have some kind of dessert at night.
    I agree.

    I do it for sure in the summer, but when it's -20 degrees the last thing I want is anything cold, I even keep my water at room temp.....but summer is just a few months away and then it's on again...for now, a reeses will have to do :)
