    I've always loved smoked cheese and I love Laughing Cow cheese wedges and now I can have both in one product. I don't shop a lot or when I do, I usually shop at only a few stores. I'm not sure if these are new but they're new to me and they didn't disappoint. Just 45 calories for two wedges.
    I usually eat them on Ryvita or Wasa crispbreads, another favourite since childhood. German immigrant parents probably had something to do with this. :)

    Walmart find or???? Cause I just checked RCSS and nothing like this there. They do have the other varieties.

    I found this at Freshco. Do you have those out your way?

    I've never even seen this brand before. What province are you in? Are you going to take a chance and try some?

    My local Freshco wouldn't accept the internet coupon I printed off for the Laughing Cow cheese. :(

    WTF??? Complain to manager and email Laughing Cow.

    I remember in one of my cool whey coupons, it said in small writing that they grocery store had a right to refuse the coupon, maybe that one had the same in small print?

    It was the manager who confirmed that they don't accept them. It says right on the coupon to be aware that retailers aren't required to accept internet coupons. (I didn't read it until afterward)

    How did you make out with yours?

    Yup, correct. I didn't read it until afterwards. Oh well. I'll try another store. I was bummed out, though.

    Superstore wouldn’t accept a printed coupon once, so I printed it again on glossy brochure paper so it looked like a real coupon and they accepted it.

    Used 3 at the same time at food basics last night. Tastes pretty good!!

    You lucky son of a gun! I'll have to try at Food Basics.

    I'm glad you like it. I thought it tasted pretty good. It scratches the itch. :)

    Does it get any more Canadian than this?

    I bought these the other day, it was more like "Meh". Nothing fantastic, I wouldn't buy it again.

    just make your own with maple extract and sweetner. Goes really well with vanilla

    I'm definitely in the make your own flavoured yogurt camp. What's really nice is you get a much larger serving for the calories, too. BTW, rum extract is delicious! :p

    Anyone in the GTA been able to find the Kirkland Signature protein bars recently? I went to 2 separate Costcos in the west end of TO today, and was told they'd been pulled from the floor due to "packaging issues".

    I read on another page that they have to re-label their packaging and that the bars will return in a couple of weeks or so.

    Found it at Food Basics! Tried a half cup of Creamy Caramel and a half cup of Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Won't be buying any HaloTop again. I'll be sticking with CoolWay and Goodnorth. The Creamy Caramel was especially good with good blobs of caramel throughout.

    My grocery didn't even have that product despite advertising it on the flyers...and when I say they didn't have the product, I mean it as not even carrying it so I couldn't even try it :(

    Saw it at Metro the other day. Passed it for CoolWay, but will pick up next time im in.

    The creamy caramel was ++ better than the fudge brownie. CoolWay chocolate chocolate chip is better, imo. I want to try the cookies & cream next but I'll wait for a sale.

    Tried this last night. Sorry but out of all the ones from HT or CW that I have tried, this is absolute garbage to me. I took few spoons and threw it out to the sink. Nothing about it was proper. Not the taste nor the texture. Will for sure not be buying any of this again. The one I have tried was Mocha flavour, and I love anything coffee.

    Oh, that's too bad! I loved the creamy caramel but was so-so on the chocolate fudge brownie. (I do prefer the CoolWay better when it comes to chocolate) I didn't try the flavour you tested but mocha isn't my favourite.

    Finally got a chance to try the Mint Chip Cool Way and while it is good, I still prefer the halo top mint chip (half the cost on sale though compared to halo top - can't beat that!)

    Highly recommend. I bought all 4 flavours and so far tried these two. Both VERY good. Also excellent price with Checkout51 coupons. Throw it in the IP add 1 3/4 cups water or stock and hit rice button, NR and done. Mix in veggies of choice and "saute" for couple minutes.

    What are the nutrional facts (aka macros) for them? I'll have to see if my grocery store carries them.

    Yea, both of them are my top choice and they cost much less than Halo Top or Breyers. My grocery stores sometimes have sales on them.
