Thanks!
I like ON Gold Standard and Trutein.1 -

I spotted the cinnamon roll Keebler cookies but noticed the birthday cake fudge stripes were on markdown and only had enough cash on me for one pack.
That was my favorite of the clean whey bars.
Does anyone have a link for the Robert Irvine cookies? I tried Googling the other day & came up with nothing.
I haven't seen anything about Robert Irvine cookies. Only brownies:

His site is the only place I have been able to find them.
Ah thanks! I might buy the Cookie Dough Brownie. I'm hoping it doesn't taste as fake as the Met Rx.0 -
Had this for lunch last wk. Holy crap good. Doesn't look like much out of the package but it's satisfying. Tastes like real food with fat in it unlike, say, Lean Cuisine. 390 cals. Would be good to add some steamed veggies on the side to fill the meal out more.
That's the only Evol meal I like.0 -

This came in the mail today from Amazon! It's IMO syrup - the same thing used to make quest bars before they switched to soluble corn fiber. Basically, I heat 2 tbsp of the syrup on the stove and mix 30 grams whey protein powder and knead it to form a dough. Then I just add in mix-ins and extras and form into bars before refrigerating them to set. Amazing! And it saves so much money, since. I don't have to pay $2.00 a bar anymore.
Weird stuff!!

How similar does it taste compared to quest bars? I have thought of making my own but figured they wouldn't taste as good and it would be a pain to calculate the macros and calories
Like I said, I used Raw Meal to make my first test-batch (I wanted to give some to a vegan friend of mine at work), so this first batch tastes a little different, although the texture is similar to that of actual Quest Bars. And the chocolate tastes more like actual chocolate vs whatever Quest uses, since I used actual chocolate chips. Either way, they're good, and I really like them! And I love that it gives me the option to create custom protein\flavor blends. I plan on trying it with whey soon, and I'll do a side-by-side comparison then.

Same! @hgycta anymore info on the Enlightened flavors?
I'm bummed that it costs so much in shipping to order Halo Top online! @Noreenmarie1234 @joshperson195 @hgycta are there any discounts/online coupons for free shipping?
I also wish we had Graeters in my neck of the woods, because www.onsecondscoop.com usually gives it great reviews.
Little G ice cream also looks good, but I will only buy that one if I get a good work bonus & maybe not even then.0 -
Honestly not impressed at all. Wasnt as sweet as their regular mixes and didn't taste like red velvet. The ginger shred is still my absolute favorite with the cocoa crave right behind it... kind of regret ordering as many of these as I did haha!
Can you return them in exchange for another flavor?0 -

Yes! If you have Facebook or Instagram you need to follow them because each day they're revealing a new flavor on their posts and if you tag a friend in it then you can win all of their new flavors! Currently we're at: Birthday Cake, Cold Brew Coffee, and Black Cherry Chocolate Chip
Oh my goodness I live in Maryland so I'm not near any Graeters and no normal grocery store has them around me, but I found them at a local natural market and they're DELICIOUS. Unfortunately, I haven't found any shipping discounts let alone free shipping for ice cream, usually it costs companies a ton of money to mail their frozen treats on dry ice so they hardly do this. Actually... I think I've seen free shipping codes in my email before from Forte Gelato and Dippin Dots, but that's really it. Halo Top's website would probably crash if they ever offered free shipping!kellyjellybellyjelly wrote: »Honestly not impressed at all.

They would probably do this, but they're a small company and the owner is really nice so I'm not putting her through that. It's not like I hate it, it's just not my favorite. It's really good (fluffier for some reason but also sweeter) with a pack of Fuel For Fire's coffee banana fruit pack instead of apple sauce so I'll just use this mix to test different fruit purees xD

I've seen a few tubs of Graeter's at Kroger but only very basic flavors, mint and chocolate. I know they're a well reviewed brand, but I balk at the idea of paying the higher price.0

Walmart had these in a freezer end cap, but for the calories the bars seem to be so tiny just from looking at the box.1 -

My Sweet Bricks Toffee finally arrived! I ordered Hot Mess, Coconut Cream Pie, Samoa, and Cookies and Cream.
Tonight I tried the Hot Mess, which has pieces of Spicy Cheetos, and I can't say I'm impressed. Very, very weird. They did about as good as I'd expect a company could with Hot Cheetos, but to me the sweet/salty/spicy combination was weird and off-putting. However, I hate mexican chocolate so any sort of heat doesn't settle well with me when I'm combining it with desserts and perhaps others would appreciate this more. 2/5 for me, but my mom enjoyed it more.
I also tried the Coconut Cream Pie, and.... WOW. My mom loves sweets and couldn't eat it because she said it was too sweet for her, but I LOVE it! SOOOOO Sweet! Very overpowering, super strong coconut flavor, and very creamy and soft but also a bit chewy! I appreciate both bitter foods (I enjoy black coffee), and very sweet foods (caramel macchiato with extra extra caramel and vanilla soy milk is always my go-to espresso drink), but mild foods bore me. Next time I'm looking for something to satisfy the extreme sweet spectrum of my dessert cravings I'll keep this toffee hidden away and ready to go. 5/5.

The coconut one looks AMAZING though. How was the cookies n cream?

Quests blueberry muffin is the only flavor I like since they changed their formula! But it's hard to compare ohyeah and quest since they're such different textures and tastes.

Have any of you tried their own brand whey protein (vanilla in particular)? They have a buy one get one 50% off sale and I have a $10 off coupon which makes them a comparable price to what I usually get from Target. Thoughts? TIA
http://www.vitacost.com/vitacost-whey-protein-complex-powder-vanilla
I haven't tried but I love vitacost return policy if you aren't satisfied with anything or even just "don't like it" they give you a full refund!
Nice! Getting that tomorrow! I'll report back!
Got the powder(ETA: Vitacost Whey Protein Complex Powder Vanilla) on Saturday and I've had a few shakes since then. I have to say I'm pretty pleased! I blend it with coffee and sugar free mocha syrup for and pour it over ice. It makes a nice thin drink that is easy to drink through a straw (@Francl27 you're right it's not great blended with ice). I haven't tried baking with it yet. But I think there might be protein pancakes in my future.0 -
Also, Dippin Dots has a coupon for free shipping if anyone is interested xD

Got these yesterday. I've never seen them around before. They are only 75 calories per piece. The size is pretty nice (about a palm's length) so one is enough, and 2 feels like a treat. I also like crunchy, so that's a plus!

The Cinnabun Fun Chobani Flip was DELICIOUS. It tasted just like one. I am loving the new flip flavors.
I tried the Vanilla Cupcake coffee from Dunkin, and like others have said, it's tasty, but nothing special. It just tastes like vanilla. Nothing "cupcake' about it.4
