    So I bought these Fiber Gourmet Thinables cookies off Linda's Diet Delites for $1.99 (not too bad, but I noticed Netrition.com has them even cheaper for $0.79 right now) and honestly I'm very impressed! I was a bit hesitant at first to try these cookies because I expected them to be dry, thin, oversized, flavorless crackers with a few splotches of cinnamon that would be too overpowering on a tasteless cracker. However, it turned out to be more like a shortbread cookie! It reminded me of those Lorna Doone shortbread cookies I used to eat as a kid; it has a soft, buttery mouthfeel. Definitely will be getting more, although for having 15 grams of fiber they're really not as filling as I had expected (but then again, my stomach is a black hole which is why I must stay holding myself accountable for calorie counting haha)

    Went to Denny’s for the cranberry orange pancakes. It looks like baby vomit and as long as you’re not thinking about the pulp in orange juice it’s pretty good, but for 710 calories for a short stack of two it’s definitely not as good as ihop’s pancakes in my opinion (or even their new fluffier original pancakes are which I think shine on their own without all the glaze)

    When I scrolled past this I thought it was melted cheese....looks disgusting and not worth 710 calories wow.

    Im obsessed with Power Crunch bars (red velvet, vanilla, peanut butter) and Ghost (milk Chocolate) protein oh and Performix Iridium protein Fruity Crunch (has those little marshmallows in it that taste like Lucky Charms). I love FlapJacked buttermilk pancakes. Im a big girl I love flavor and love to eat. These items have helped me lose weight I haven't binged or had any cravings. Making losing weight possible. If you have a little extra cash flow its worth it.


    I FORGOT HALO TOP ice-cream!!! Cookie Dough and Vanilla Bean, boom.

    The kashi bowl looks pretty good, I'll give it a try. Seems like a good choice for the days I don't fast.

    The new Mystery Oreos definitely taste like Froot Loops!

    The Fruity Crisp out a few years ago reminded me more of Fruity Pebbles.

    ooo these look good. I want to try those thinables coffee cake crisps that I posted yesterday too.

    These look really good. I am a gingerbread fanatic so I will try if I see Quaker-Limited-Edition-Gingerbread-Spice-Chewy-Snowday-Granola-Bars.jpg?resize=526%2C600&ssl=1

    and OMG you guys were right the cookie butter oreos are TO DIE FOR. Very dangerous. I love how the base is a graham cracker like cookie. I wish they would use that base for more flavors I think it would be a hit. They could even do more pie flavors with it. I wish they would do a chocolate with pistachio filling or a chocolate oreo with cashew filling.

    s-l300.jpg Not my pic but I think we all know what these look like now LOL

    This is also coming out this year

    Quaker is also supposed to have a Ginger oatmeal.

    Tried this bar I got. Only 210 calories and really big. The peanut butter topping was very tasty but the bar ad a slight "protein bar" taste that reminded me of the way protein bars used to taste 10 years ago when they were the worst things ever lol. I tasted it first two bites but then didnt taste it and the bar grew on me. Nice peanut butter taste, but not really chocolatey at all. Not what you think of when you think of chocolate pb flavor more of peanut butter chocolate chip.

    Overall not bad. Probably wouldn't buy unless they were on sale though. The base reminded me of those caramel popcorn kashi bars anyone remember those? mbvr6mpavhi6.jpg

    LOVE the cheddar ones! They are like a very very thin rice cake. Mozaics_Cheddar_3.5oz_bag_99a126a0-e3b4-43ae-89ca-13b60e35c20d_1024x1024@2x.jpg?v=1496169530

    I mainly like them because I can eat a whole entire huge 3.5oz bag for only 350 calories lol. The smaller 1 portion bags are a good size too and only 80 calories. Pretty good for how low calorie they are. Better than quaker rice crisps and other ones I've tried. Loved the sour cream too but the cheddar is my favorite. Didn't like the BBQ like I said before, too weird with the pea flavor.

    Loved all the other cookies from them so was really disapointed in these and the snickerdoodle. Both of them were not very good. The pumpkin was VERY bland and boring with a hint of pumpkin spice flavor and strong nutmeg. It was really lacking in the pumpkin flavor and cinnamon. Basically tasted like a bland dough with some pumpkin pie slice and nutmeg. Didn't like at all. (And I LOVE pumpkin things)

    Snickerdoodle is my favorite type of cookie and did not really like these. They were just okay. They were nice and soft but not very sweet at all. I was hoping for a really nice thick cinnamon sugar coating (similar to lenny larry) but it was non existent. Nothing I would buy or waste calories on. The other ones I tried were amazing compared to these. The base for these two were different as well. I could tell it was the same base which I really didn't like. WOW-Gluten-Free-Snickerdoodle-Cookies-Packaged.jpg

    So my favorite was in order white chocolate cranberry, white chocolate key lime pie, oregon oatmeal, chocolate chip, lemon burst, toffee peanut butter, peanut butter, snickerdoodle pumpkin pie.

    These are pretty good. They don't taste too much like pecan pie as the syrup has a pretty distinct maple flavor, but they're yummy. The serving size is 2 for 380 calories, but I only eat one at a time for 190 to cut calories a bit.

    These were nothing special. Tasted like your standard vanilla ice cream cone, maybe a little sweeter but nothing about it screamed "Twinkie" to me.

    At first taste, I thought this was delicious. But it has a strange chemical aftertaste that I'm not a fan of.

    I have a love/hate relationship with L&L. If I really want a cookie, I feel more responsible if I eat a L&L cookie than completely empty-calorie cookies. If I'm not jonesing for a cookie fix, though, agreed that L&L is a poor substitution for a standard protein bar.

    They were awesome to me when I had been deprived of real cookies for a while, lol! But I hear you.

    I still like a couple flavors but not enough to buy them.

    I think L&L has some great flavors, but a lot of them aren't very good. Double Choc is great imo, and pb is passable. The rest not so much. Macros are awful though -- 25 cals per g of protein is just too high.
