    Noticed this on Bob Evans’ website.... holy moly... no calories are listed for it but I can only imagine they’re very high o.o

    Wow what a sugar bomb. I'd love to go just to try their biscuits and gravy but the closest one is 50 miles away. :disappointed:

    Wrote to them, 1,480 calories for just the pancakes alone.... guess I’ll never try them, either xD </3

    Holy crap!

    Could you just splurge & put some of the calories in other days to even out over the course of a week?

    These were interesting. Not very sweet like I expected. I was expecting them to be sweeter kind of like pb2’s crackers.

    They had a very strong corn taste like a Cheeto without cheese, which is probably what I should have expected given that’s what they are lol. p4wb09en3ess.jpeg

    They grew on me as I ate them, but not something I’d buy again.

    Nice!

    I wonder if the Movie Night flavor will taste like Yuenling's ice cream popcorn concoction a few years ago, but lower calorie?

    I'm surprised Giant doesn't carry more Enlightened than they do.

    These were really good. Probably the best vegan protein powder drinks I’ve tried. My favorite was the coffee one. It was like a bottled Starbucks drink and had a nice sweet coffee flavor. Second favorite was dark chocolate. Super rich dark chocolate flavor.

    Usually I don’t like vegan protein powders because they aren’t the best or have a weird taste. The vanilla was good but boring and not something I’d want to waste calories on. I loveeee the coffee one in the morning. I did realize they sent me shakes that were a year expired and didn’t realize until AFTER I drank them LOL. I didn’t have any side effects though. They also came in powdered packs but I liked the pre made ones.

    Also tried these chocolate bites. Got free sample. You can write company and ask they send or do free first delivery trial and then just cancel once first order is shipped ;). I didn’t feel any energy from them lol. But I am really tolerant to caffeine (I can drink 2 cup of coffee an hour before bed). They tasted like chocolate coffee beans and the actual chocolate wasn’t that good. Like cheap no name chocolate you can buy in bulk bins at the grocery store. Wouldn’t buy.

    I could but that also generally sets me up for failure the following days because I feel like I'm being deprived :') I'll probably just pass on these, but they do look good!

    WOW 1480 JUST for the pancakes?! They must be amazing. I think denny's/ihop/etc are having a competition who can make the highest calorie, most deliciously decadent pancakes LOL.

    So, share them with people. Then you and your group can all try them. And then get a side of eggs and spinach or something.

    Yoplait-FruitSide-Yogurt-Mixed-Berry-and-Peach.jpg

    Not bad, but too sweet... and you can hardly taste the yogurt part. Will remove some fruit next time. Macros are awful. Not worth the calories.

    I would eat the peach one as I am obsessed with peach. Can never have too many peaches lol (I drink smoothies every day and one of my regulars is peach Boost juice with frozen peaches and unflavoured protein powder)

    So apparently Subway is rolling out wraps nationally now. I never normally go to Subway, but I'd be interested in hearing how well they executed these! Brand Eating's website says they have three varieties, but when I went to Subway's website and looked up my store I found 25 o:

    Also, Junk Banter found the last of the newest Enlightened flavors.... my heart is melting (but slightly disappointed it's not cotton candy or carrot cake)
    nzq8lnioufpr.png

    Oh man those wraps have been dominating my subway for the last week. The wraps are around 800 calories each and corporate has been pushing us to promote them so hard. Just the wrap alone is 300 calories! We had a lot of training on how to fold em and proper portioning because even a little more lettuce than usual can make them so hard to close. I still have had to retrain some employees on closing them. We've sent out some coupons in my area too to get people to buy them, and we are supposed to be verbally suggesting wraps every time. Although, the feedback I have received from my regulars who tried em is 'meh, not the same as my sub, weird that the wrap itself isn't warm' too high cal, and they have all ended up going back to their usual sub. If you are a die hard wrap fan though I think they are yummy, especially the tomato basil flavored wrap!

    It's too bad that you guys can't use these for the wraps. They'd shave 200 calories off the wrap and add even MORE veggies.

    Are they promoting them as 'healthier' too? I still can't wrap my head around how wraps are always labeled as healthier than bread...

    Thanks for saving me 700-800 calories of disappointment! ;p I was genuinely interested at first!
