    This stuff is to die for! So delicious!

    I bought a small jar of this because I couldn't be trusted with the larger jar of the Trader Joe's cookie butter and I wanted to see if they tasted the same. I like the Trader Joe's version better but I impressed myself by actually logging every serving of the Biscoff jar. (I don't with the Trader Joe's version. It's pretty much just me, the jar, and a spoon. The scale usually takes a hike at this point. :))
    I've actually never had either Trader Joe's regular cookie butter or Biscoff's brand. My favorite normal cookie butter is HEB's.

    There's a brand I can't find online for the life of me, but they have a chocolate cookie butter that is amazing.

    Tried Halo Top's Pistachio flavor. It was delicious but also more subtle nutty flavor and not sweet enough for me to get again. Tomorrow I'll be trying the oatmeal cookie one, the last chance at finding one better than the sea salt caramel :')

    Are you seriously going through a pint a day?? :)

    I'm making my way through the pistachio right now and like it but ptobably won't get again either.

    The HT flavor releases was a beta test, and they are constantly working to improve the recipes. :) Pistachio could definitely use some work...

    SERIOUSLY? Well that's a relief! So... how do we communicate our feedback? Because as far as I'm concerned, the cookies & cream was perfect, the cookie dough was perfect, and so was the sea salt caramel, although a few extra swirls wouldn't hurt anybody.
    The red velvet needed a cream cheese swirl or SOMETHING and the peanut butter quite honestly disappointed me because I had hoped for a more rich chocolate base and sweeter peanut butter.
    Does a beta test mean other flavors could be considered? I know I'll probably never get my dream of cotton candy, but a pumpkin or eggnog would be amazing.
    I'm never satisfied. I need an endless variety of Halo Top. That's not too much to ask for, is it?

    Alright, I just finished the oatmeal cookie so I've had all of the new flavors! It was good, I'm impressed but honestly it doesn't compare to Enlightened's caramel oatmeal pint. Perhaps I'm biased because I love caramel but this was kind of boring even though the oats were plentiful. I recall someone earlier mentioning how they should include raisins, which I agree would make it more rounded! My favorite is still the sea salt caramel followed by the cookies and cream and then the cookie dough ;) I can't believe I ate $70 worth of ice cream that quick... what do I do now? XD

    King Sooper is a Kroger brand. I have to keep my eye out for those yogurts.

    Let's face it--*nothing* compares to Enlightened's caramel oatmeal. I'd eat that even over regular ice cream...

    The Think Thin Pumpkin Spice bar was just ok...in my opinion the pumpkin flavor needed to be stronger.

    I looked on the Halo Top website and they said they were sold at the Kroger by me so I was planning on that for dinner (I know, it's been a tough day) but they ended up not having it :( I got Arctic Zero cake batter flavor instead but it's super gross :(

    I searched all over the freezer section at Kroger on several occasions as they have had it advertised for weeks. Almost gave up yesterday again when I found a "stray" pint in with the ice cream. Finally found it on the end cap.

    Same here - found it on the end cap. I tried it the Cake Batter / Birthday cake flavor last night. O-M-Gahhh!!! It's so delicious!!! I can't wait to try their other flavors. :yum::blush:

    I was looking for cocoa powder to compare prices and found it. This stuff is my favorite cookie butter.

    Just the perfect disgustingly sweet treat

    Wal-Mart has the larger bag of the new flavors with the exception of the mint!

    Still debating on which flavor to buy.

    Man that ice cream brand looks awesome, but way too expensive! Even more expensive than Jenis.

    I'd buy some of that just because of how cool the companies backstory is

    Tried some Nestle hot chocolate with cashew milk <3

    The Quest Cookies arrived today! Definitely wasn't expecting them to be so flat and odd looking, but it was pretty good! If you've tried their Quest Cravings cups the chocolate has that same slightly bitter, crumbly taste. Definitely not comparable to Lenny & Larry's or Buff Bakes cookies, but it was enjoyable. It honestly reminded me a lot of their regular chocolate chip cookie dough bar (that's probably all it is), but I can't imagine paying for more. Definitely must be microwaved, gets so soft!!!

    I picked up a pint of Halo Top to see what all the hype was about. I did get the pistachio (bought it before all the latest reviews). I love pistachio ice cream and truly disliked this. The flavor was not appealing, the texture was off and there was a weird aftertaste. Took a couple bites the other day and haven't touched it since. I probably would have tossed it in the trash if it hadn't been so pricey. Definitely doesn't make me want to run out and try another flavor. Especially since most of you like the birthday cake and cookie dough, neither of which appeal to me.

    Despite everything I've said about Arctic Zero, I really want to try their banana pudding flavor. If it's anything like the cookie dough, the chunks will be a-ok.

    I miss the banana cookies Chips Ahoy came out with last year.

    GAHH cotton candy would be incredible! Or bubble gum... Or banana. Or key lime pie.

    OMG COTTON CANDY PLEASE!!! Now I have a massive craving for cotton candy ice cream...my favorite flavor as a kid.

    Thanks for the review. Looks like there chocolate chip bar but flattened out into cookie form LOL. Does it taste just like the chocolate chip cookie dough bar baked a little? I used to bake mine sometimes.

    So damn good. 220cal for a cup :)

    Have you tried any of their other flavors? I'm in love with all their ice creams

    Earth Balance just came out with their own peanut butters. They're awesome! They have one peanut butter that uses coconut oil and another regular peanut butter that has flaxseeds and is sweetened with fruit palm oil and agave syrup.
