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...

They're sold in the Vitamin Shoppe, or at least the one near my house in Maryland! I tried the cookies & cream and really liked it!
I also returned to Starbucks to try the hot version of the coconut milk mocha macchiato and must say, so much less impressive than the iced version. Tasted weird. Maybe coconut milk just gets an off taste from the heating process?0 -
First bite 0/10. Reminded me of no cow bars. I am not a fan of pea protein, very dry. As I ate it it grew on me though and I kinda liked it. Nothing I would buy again though. 4/100 -
Not sure how long this has been out but I noticed someone walk out of wawa with it so I immediately went in and hunted it down, never even seen it at cold stone's actual store which is weird. Overall I thought it was good, but not something to go out of your way for. Tastes just like any other vanilla flavored iced coffee drink honestly, nothing special, kind of too sweet

So Cheesecake factory will have a chocolate hazelnut crunch cheesecake at the end of the month.
Needless to say, I'll make room for a piece of that.5 -

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 like them! They are similar to quest bars imo if you have tried them
i tried these and their brownie flavor as well... they're not terrible, but i thought they were way too hard - honestly hurt my jaw to chew.0 -
So I got to try even more things I had been meaning to try tonight:
Denny's new fluffier buttermilk pancakes:
Delicious! Honestly not as big as I was expecting (especially after reading reviews of how massive they are), they were about the same size as the buttermilk pancakes from IHOP. I never got pancakes from Denny's before so maybe they're massive compared to the old ones, but nothing "massive" to someone used to diner pancakes by any means. This being said, they blew me away regardless. They tasted like birthday cake, they could have honestly marketed themselves as such! Very pleasant and distinct vanilla flavor, soft texture, and delicious. Every part of me felt like I was eating a piece of cake (which in a way, I guess I was).
7-Eleven's new birthday cake flavored cappuccino:
I haven't been able to find the slurpee version, but I'm more of a coffee drinker anyways so when I saw this I quickly got over the disappointment, especially when I took a whiff and noticed how strong it smelled like birthday cake. Until I took a sip. Was it good? Yes, very smooth and sweet like their other self serve powdered cappuccinos. But that's it. No birthday cake flavor, not even a subtle hint towards one. Denny's tasted more like a birthday cake than this did. Very disappointed, would not recommend.1 -
I just tried oikos triple zero. Fabulous - vanilla, chocolate. Better taste than "simply 100". It is sweetened with stevia.3
-
Has anyone tried anything from The Lions Choice? Strawberry Cheesecake, with protein, low carb & low sodium? Sounds pretty awesome.0

IMO they are much worse than Quest bars, even the new formula that just tastes like corn fiber to me.1 -
9/10 Would buy again these were really good. First two bites wasn't sure, but it was DELICIOUS. Nice honey almond flavor with a slight tart that complements the honey nicely. Really enjoyed these. Not as good as old formula quest bars (those babies were 1000/10 lol) but decent and I liked them. I don't think people who are looking for the "sugary, sweet" candy bar taste in a protein bar will like these. They are more natural and less sweet and "pure" tasting. Good bar, but have to be in the mood for it. Hope that makes sense. I like these for breakfast, not dessert like.

That looks... delicious, actually! How long did it take to make? Can you prepare it in the microwave inside of a cup/mug? How much was shipping? Never heard of them before!0 -

@hgycta its only 2-3 minutes in the microwave using whatever microwavable container you choose. i bought the 5 pack and shipping was $6, but there is a rewards program and you receive a discount code with your order to use going forward.0 -

No kidding. Too much $$ though.1 -
Has anyone tried the Chobani drinkable yogurt drinks? I'm tempted if they ever get on sale ($2.30 is ridiculous).
I know, I'm a cheapskate.
Also really annoyed at Shop Rite because they keep getting rid of my favorite products (oh my yog yogurts are gone now too!).1 -
An old food but for me a new purchasing experience. I got tired of having ugly hard-boiled eggs. No matter how I did them, 18 times out of 20 they wouldn't peel easily. So I bought some at the grocery store already cooked and peeled. Best idea I've had in a long time. Beware they have a rather short shelf life.3

I contacted them about free samples (I'm cheap too, don't worry @Francl27 xD), and unfortunately they don't do that. However, they said something about a referral program? Do you know anything about this? I would love to give you credit if I purchase them (which I probably will if I'm honest with myself) so you can hopefully receive a discount or something on your next purchase!1 -

Oh my goodness, I used to have the same problem but I just can't pay that much for the prepeeled. So I found the following fail safe method:
1. Bring water to boil
2. Place eggs gently into boiling water
3. Allow to come back to a boil and boil for 1 minutes
4. Turn off heat and cover and leave for 11-12 minutes
5. Drain and put ice and a little water and let sit until completely cooled
6. That shell will peel right off! I gently crack them all over and then roll between my palms and they will usually slide right off - I'd say 98 times out of 100
Not a new product, but a new method perhaps? 0 -

Try this. Works for me every time. New eggs, old eggs, doesn't matter.

No kidding. Too much $$ though.
I was really excited and thought maybe I could dish out more cash since it looks good and there's a rewards program... But at $4 or $5 a package + shipping and you need to purchase your own egg, milk, and applesauce for one serving of cake? And you also need to make your own frosting? This is unfortunately too expensive for me. What a shame.0 -

I can see where everyone is saying it's too expensive but I already waste my money on Simply Scrumptous low carb desserts and Lindasdietdelites.com so it would be nice to try this out for once and change things up! I get paid tomorrow so sometime before the end of this week I'll definitely use that link, thanks!2
