    Opps in my original post I put "chocolate plus marshmallow" I meant "oreo plus marshmallow" lol. Found at walmart! LOL @hgycta I will try some and bite their heads off just for you :wink: . Bet they are good toasted in the oven too. I love toasted marshmallows.

    So I tried the oreos and very unimpressed! I really liked them. I am a fan of golden oreos and these really just tasted like golden oreos but a little different. The filling itself wasn't that good did not really taste like marshmallows. Wouldn't go out of my way to have again but they were good. Just not really different from golden oreos. I actually think golden oreos are better. The middle was pretty boring and bland.

    Not sure if these are new, new to me. I grabbed the rolls. The store I was at didn't have the Nutty Bars. Zebra Cakes + Nutty Bars= LOVE

    I used to have a nutty bar in my lunch every day as a kid, those were the BEST!

    Whoever said this yogurt flavor basically sucks was correct! The only flavor I could take away from this disaster was fake chocolate.

    I'm going to try a Beyond Meat Vegetarian Indian Curry bowl for lunch tomorrow. I looked up the meal to find a picture & noticed it had been on recall before, but luckily it was different sell by date(s) than the one I bought at the Grocery Outlet.

    Tried this on Friday & holy crap was it ever spicy! Other than the spicy kick I would have never been able to tell I wasn't eating real chicken & the meal overall was good.

    I doubt this is new, but I'd never seen it before today. It's basically 80% Golden Grahams, 10% Coco Puffs and 10% those hard dehydrated marshmallows you get in packaged hot chocolate mix. I cannot believe I went through 31 years of life and never thought to do this myself! I'm kind of irritated that the only place I've ever seen them is at a grocery store 30 minutes away from home :( But I'm impressed, it was amazing (nothing like the Kellog's "Smorez", which I found dispicable).

    I saw Halo Top out in the wild for the first time today- at said distant grocery store- but I just couldn't throw down $5.79 to try it out. They did have some of the new flavors y'all have been talking up though. Also looked for Enlightened, but no dice.

    I brought home a HUGE GNC haul last week, mostly thanks to you guys.
    - Tons of Quest bars, marked down to $1.09 a piece, as they're going out of date in May, but I'll totally blow through them by then (whole box of PB&J for $12.49!)
    - Blueberry Muffin Quest bar- meh. Didn't taste like blueberries, or much of anything, really
    - Oatmeal Cookie Quest bar- haven't tried yet
    - Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough FitJoy bar- was okay. Wanted to try the brand because it got good reviews here, but couldn't remember which flavors were highly rated, so went with the one the kid working there recommended. Good, but not a flavor I would pick for myself.
    - Birthday Cake Oh Yeah One bar- No. Forgot that these didn't get great reviews here. Kind of odd tasting. Nothing remotely cake-like. Will not repurchase.
    - Different flavor Oh Yeah One bar- don't even remember which flavor, and after the Cake one, not really looking forward to it.
    - Lenny & Larry Birthday Cake Cookie- yet to try, but excited! Side note- when did Birthday Cake flavor become such a thing? Practically every snack item I looked at in GNC had that as one of the flavor options.
    - Buff Bakes Oatmeal Raisin(?) cookie- also yet to try, but I'm a huge oatmeal raisin fan, so I have high hopes.

    You guys have turned me into a monster, and I'm mostly just a lurker! But I thank you all for it :)

    Wow what an experience! YOU SHOULD HAVE TRIED HALO TOP AT LEAST ONE PINT TO SAY YOU'VE TRIED IT. $5.79 is a lot for ice cream but it's actually $0.20 less than Wegmans sells it for and if they had the salted caramel or cookies and cream it would've been worth it *cough cough* go back.
    I can't believe you don't like S'morez cereal! </3
    I'm still mad I can't find that cookies & cream malt o meal at Walmart -.-
    Oh, and if that Oh Yeah ONE bar didn't knock you off your feet I strongly suggest you don't bother with Fit Joy, either, as I find them as similar but Fit Joy tastes more like candle wax to me (sorry for those who love them)!

    haha same here, I read this post religiously and I keep finding new things to try, thanks to everyone. I stockpiled so much I never have to shop again. But oh well, I'm going to gnc today again!

    I don't think it was a chain wide sale. I think it was just because this particular store had bars that were going to go out of date and they wanted to get rid of them. It was only 3 of the flavors, the rest were all full price.

    Went to Walmart today and finally found the Internationals delight one touch latte frothing creamer so I picked up the caramel but after looking at a few YouTube reviews it doesn't look like I thought so I'm not in any huge rush to try it, but I did try Dannon Light & Fit toasted marshmallow greek yogurt and I really enjoy it! I like all their flavors though, I wouldn't say this one is revolutionary and worth going out of your way for. It definitely tastes like toasted marshmallow but it's also more subtle. Still no cookies & cream malt o meal cereal!
    2yulv6o2juyj.jpg

    Also got invited by Amazon to try their new Amazon Dash for their surprise treats boxes full artisanal chocolates/caramels/other snacks. Decided to get it for the sake of trying it, but the button was $4.99 and the first box of snacks (which looks like is only 1/2 lb) is $18 so I might wait a week depending on my mood on that one too!

    Also got chocolate sorbet by Talenti and Ciao Bella since they were both on sale at Shoprite for $1.99. The Talenti without a doubt was much better, kind of tasted like those fudge popsicles. The Ciao Bella had a weird artificial taste to it I couldn't put my finger on, although I love their coconut sorbet go figure!
    However, weighed out BOTH of them and the serving size in grams was a lot less than what each pint should have contained according to the nutrition label. -.-

    Is it my imagination, or are the sweets in these boxes not adding up to $18 worth of stuff? Maybe I don't know my confections...

    Well some of them (such as Askinosee chocolate bars) are very expensive around $7 each plus shipping so I mean it is expensive but it could also be worse. You're paying for the convenience and fun factor more than anything, like those monthly subscription boxes of ethnic snacks from Try Treats etc, none of them are cheap they're just fun :p

    I had no idea FitJoy had more bars to release. I can't wait to hear the reviews. If they're anything like the Iced Gingerbread, Winter Peppermint Bark, Birthday Cake, or CC Cookie Dough, I'll like them.

    I used to like the Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurts but for some reason, now with every flavor, I'm getting some sort of after taste. I don't *think* it's the artificial sweeteners because I'm all about artificial sweeteners(!) so not sure what it is but I like a lot of the flavors enough that this makes me sad. :(

    Noodles & Company released two new dishes and I couldn't resist the Pork Adobo. Has a little heat and a lot of flavor I love it! However, $7.83 for a small is a little pricey so it's not something I'll get regularly but it was very filling and satisfying! Not at all aesthetically appealing like the picture though haha!uei7146lb5pz.png

    I don't know about that soup thing. I've never had it, but I can't imagine any chicken noodle soup topping Bob Evans!

    Also finally tried the One Touch latte creamer! I got the caramel and I LOVE IT. Not quite what I was expecting; I somehow expected it to be more of a powder that reacts with the liquid kind of like the 2-step Gevalia frothing k-cups, but this was kind of like flavored whipped cream. Honestly I bet if you did find a flavored whipped cream and stirred it the result would be the same. Still, it's a fun idea and had a nice caramel flavor while not tasting too fake! Definitely wasn't froth though, it was cream. If you want froth, either get a steaming pitcher or Gevalia!

    Also found a review for the Oreo Easter Eggs that were released!

    And lastly, this. This is all I want right now.
    sqqglnx7wu0r.png

    Scratch that. I just went to Junk Banter's instagram and now I want a lot more.
    They already got Enlightened's new flavor. They rated Halo Top's red velvet better as better than Enlightened's version (said HT was sweeter, which I thought HT's red velvet wasn't sweet at all especially compared to their salted caramel) but the pictures of Enlightened makes it look delicious so I'm still optimistic! They said the red velvet Halo Top was their favorite HT. It was my least favorite, but I love red velvet normally so this makes me really interested now in how much these reviews will apply to me.
    The birthday cake got rated better than Halo Top.
    The cinnabon muffin things must be microwaved apparently, and that thing from Starbucks is a cookie butter bar that got a 9/10. *exhales* alright now I'm done, I promise. For now.

    So is it like a coffee creamer? Sorry - don't do lattes or Starbucks stuff so I don't that lingo. :# I just make plain ol coffee and add creamer to it.

    It's essentially a glorified creamer, yes :) I like it a little more than creamer since I feel like creamer gives it a dry mouthfeel, if that makes sense, so I liked this much more than using cream and sugar or using milk and sugar. But of course I would still take an actual caramel latte over this or a cappuccino. If you usually use creamer you would definitely like this it won't let you down!
