    @Franci27 You were definitely right about these. They were on clearance, so I thought I would try one... Buuuut they're so, uh... Nope. They're a lot like VitaminWater, but even sweeter. At least they don't have that godawful sorbitol aftertaste.

    I'm glad I only bought one of these as a snack. I liked that they included the dark meat and left out the backbone/skin pieces (unlike Raincoast :s), but they had huge chunks of fat.

    My King Soopers had these on sale for a good price, so I picked up a few boxes. Their peach pear is probably my second favorite to their coconut. The orange is good for watering down sweet tea.

    @CrabNebula I LOVE torani! I go through it like crazy. I add a few tbsp to my coffee every morning. I have never tried it in yogurt or in food though. I love the white chocolate. The chocolate has a weird taste to it. I am surprised you found it so sweet. I add 3tbsp to 16oz coffee (plus sweetener lol). My other favorites are the vanilla, salted caramel, caramel, white chocolate, coconut, pumpkin pie, irish cream. The almond flavor has a bad "fake almond extract" taste that I don't like.

    Want to try these powdered nut butters. They come in honey pb, chocolate, regular and salted caramel. I eat a ton of PB2, so would like to try different flavors. I may order and let you guys know.

    Interested in hearing about this one.

    I might be in the minority, but I cannot stand La Croix waters!

    I do love the new Sparkling Ice waters that Wal-Mart is carrying that are similar to the Sparkling Ice brand.

    I saw that. Then the calorie count... not for me :(

    I'm actually in a phase where I'm trying to phase out all the sweet stuff out of the house because normal servings just haven't cut it lately. It makes me sad, but I guess it's what it is. So yeah, probably not many new posts from me in this thread for a while.

    If it makes you feel better, it's not as good as it sounds. My mom had some in her freezer and I was excited to try, but imo it wasn't worth it.

    I tried the Power Crunch chocolate brownie crisp today. I liked it quite a bit.

    I really liked this one, too! The Power Crunch Crisp Sweet Vanilla Dream flavor is also quite good.

    It's what I use on roasted veggies. I just don't quite believe the '0 calorie' claims though.

    Because of the minuscule amount a serving size is, they are allowed to put zero on the label. But you're right, it's not zero.

    I just tried the Quest Protein Crunch bar in the waffle flavour. It's great too! (I've previously tried and loved the cinnamon one.) This one has a maple drizzle across the top. It is quite sweet and has a slightly artificial sweetener taste to it, but it's still yummy. The price is still a turn off, since they are more expensive than regular Quest bars but only 40g. But they are a tasty treat for sure.

    I feel the need to say that I apparently will probably try that next since I tried the cinnamon protein crunch bar after you did and then the blueberry muffin protein bar (my god, it really *was* sticky!) and the waffle protein crunch bar was really the one thing I truly wanted to try. :)

    <----who really liked the size and thickness of the crunch bars

    i like beer so i really wana try this!

    I love most and all of Ben and Jerry's flavors. However, I just didn't get enough of the beer flavor through, and too much salted caramel. It was good, but wasn't quite up to high expectations. Maybe I'll have to try it again to see.

    I've been taking a ketone supplement (beta hyroxybuterate and MCT powder) for a bout 6 weeks. Most noticeable differences are fewer cravings, less stiffness and more sustained energy. Really like it so far.

    If you're ever in Texas, I think the bourbon pecan pie flavor has decent alcohol flavors.

    My opinion is probably crap cause I don't really drink.

    I just tried the Quest peanut butter chocolate protein crunch bar. It's good, but not as good as the cinnamon or waffle ones. The peanut butter taste is just not strong enough for me (a common complaint from me about many peanut butter products) and the chocolate is not that noticeable.

    Had a coupon for a free box so I got the potato original ones.

    Meh. Can't see myself wasting more calories on that.

    I got the spinach/garlic and sweet potato (BOGO). They weren't bad, and I thought the serving was big for 130 calories.

    We tried those flavors + the chickpea one. The sweet potato was my favorite. I agree - surprised at the 'big' serving size.

    Thanks for review, I am really wanting to try the crunch bars. I am going to wait until they come to stores because I don't want to pay shipping lol.

    I liked the Tortilla factory much better before they changed the formula! I think I like Tumaro's better though. Never seen the WW ones.

    There are a couple free shipping codes out there if you haven't used them yet.

    I used both up so *had* to pay for shipping when I could finally get the protein bars and protein chips. Paying for shipping is against my moral code. :)

    OK, I didn't plan on it, but I just tried the Quest chocolate protein crunch bar. It's not very chocolatey at all. Definitely the least impressive of the four I've tried. I thought I got all of them, but now I'm seeing a strawberry flavour. Not sure if I overlooked it or it's a new addition. The cinnamon was by far my favourite, but the waffle was good too, except it had a slight artificial sweetness to it that I also noticed in the peanut butter chocolate one. All four flavours are quite sweet, but I have an intense sweet tooth, so that's not really a problem for me. I will probably buy more cinnamon ones, though the price is still quite painful. I'll try the strawberry at some point! I do want to try the new chips, so I'll probably order a strawberry one then.

    When did they change the formula? I only tried them once and thought they were pretty good. The price was just too much for me. My favorite is actually just the Flat Out low carb wrap.

    I really wish I got the chance to try these or the fry flavors. I only tried the crappy sandwich and gyro flavors. :s

    The only flavor I liked was the biscuits and gravy! So good! I tried one and whoa, I was surprised how similar they tasted to the real thing. It was a three way tie for my least favorite flavor. I couldn't eat more than one of the truffle chips.

    Apparently available only at Target (judging by the Kodiak Cakes webpage). That's annoying, since there's no Target near me. I'd be curious for reviews if any of you try them!
