    FYI: sent the good people at Halo Top a message asking about future flavors, etc. and they said they have big plans for "sometime this summer." :o

    I wonder if anyone's found any of the gold tickets?

    Anyone sending their loser seals to social media for another chance to win?

    @Kimblesnbits13 did you mix it with water or milk? I'm thinking i'm gonna mix it with unsweetened almond milk because I've had a bad experience with mixing powders with water. Is this a good idea or should I brave it with water?

    I used unsweetened vanilla coconut almond milk. Every time I use water i don't like it.

    @hgycta, I saw the Cotton Candy Twinkies at WalMart yesterday; thought of you. :D I didn't buy them, but I did pick up a ginormous box of Oreo Os. *drools*. They're just as good as I remember!

    Lucky!!! I didn't see either! I did finally see the malt o meal cookies & cream cereal so once I finish up my current cereals I might buy a bag so I'll be able to compare them :) YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE TWINKIES

    I've been tweeting them with my non-winners, I have to say their social media team is pretty on point. They're fast with liking tweets and their responses have been pretty epic!

    I finally found the Cotton Candy Twinkies!

    I NEED YOU TO REPORT BACK ASAP TO LET ME KNOW HOW THEY ARE. My father was going to Walmart last night so I asked him to check for them (and also for Oreo O's cereal), but he didn't see either. He did bring back Chocolate Twinkies, but that just doesn't cut it for me I need to find Cotton Candy!!!

    I also picked up the other two Quest Hero bars despite hating the Blueberry Cobbler flavor and today I tried the Vanilla Caramel. I thought the Blueberry Cobbler was very artificial and yes, I noticed that a bit in the Vanilla Caramel, too, BUT I LOVED IT. The caramel was so gooey and satisfying, the entire bar was to die for! I would never choose the Blueberry Cobbler bar over a hardcore candy bar craving, but that caramel sauce in the Vanilla Caramel bar sure would make me consider replacing this one for a candy bar. I love the Cinnamon Roll Beyond Cereal Bar, and this was definitely just an even sweeter, improved version of that. If they could make a bar like this with a dark chocolate coating and a peanut butter caramel layer I would be in heaven.

    While picking up Quest stuff I also splurged on a full tub of the Cinnamon Crunch protein powder. I had it in the labs and wasn't crazy about it, thought it was sort of bitter and artificial like the Cookies & Cream, but this final version is A LOT better. If anyone tried the Cinnamon Crunch powder in the labs and hated it, definitely give it another try! It's much sweeter and has a stronger cinnamon flavor. Reminds me a lot of the Cinnamon Cereal Crunch CTD Protein Powder... in fact, it's nearly identical!

    I just tried the cinnamon crunch quest powder in a single packet and it was yuuuummmy! Do you think the tub has as many cinnamon crunchies as the single packets? Because both packets had a bunch of crunchies. If so I'm going to buy the tub.

    Mine seems to.

    Tried this. It's good, but it isn't their old Oatmeal Cookie. Lots of fudge chunks, and I'm not a fan of chunks of chocolate in my ice cream. Sweet, creamy base ice cream. The oatmeal swirl was REALLY swirled in, though. You never really got a bite/chunk of oatmeal cookie swirl like you did in the old Oatmeal Cookie. It was pretty good, but if I'm going to splurge on B&J's, it won't be this flavor next time.

    I've also checked my local GNC three or four times for the new lemon Fitjoy, and they still aren't in.

    I love this meal! I've been taking one to lunch for the past 3-4 days.

    It's not overly spicy, has a nice balance of salty & sweet, & the Kale in it actually doesn't taste vile.

    I still can't find these bowls! Where did you buy it?

    I found it near the other Healthy Choice meals in Wal-Mart.

    I didn't care for the sausage variety (the sauce was disgusting), & I would have to try the Adobo one again because I ate it in a hurry because I was hungry.

    It's a shame the PowerCrunch bars aren't more filling because their Red Velvet was PHENOMENAL. No chemical/artificial/food dye taste, just dark cocoa wafers and a DELICIOUS cream cheese coating. They definitely aced it, as soon as I'm off work I'm heading to Walmart to buy more boxes!!! 10/10

    You should work in advertising because you're the only reason I bought that bar and became obsessed XD

    Hey, did anyone ever answer the question about coconut pieces in the coconut oreo thins? I know I said I didn't want to try them but we'll just stick that in the "who am I kidding" file. They're oreos! But not if they have coconut pieces because of the texture... :)

    Honestly, if you don't normally like red velvet I think you both would still enjoy these wafers. From what I've seen, people who don't like red velvet associate it with the red food dye flavor too much, which this doesn't have one bit! It's like dark cocoa and cream cheese, it's so delicious! Sort of reminds me of the Red Velvet Kit Kats, only larger!

    Also, Junk Banter reviewed the Enlightened's marshmallow bars over on their instagram, it doesn't look like they were executed very well unfortunately! If anyone here tries it though let me know if you have other thoughts - even though I don't care for Rice Krispies treats, the idea of something new is tempting for me >.>

    I found it at my Vitamin Shoppe. Haven't tried it yet though
