I tried strawberry, grape, and tropical (the tropical was my least favorite, which surprised me since I thought it'd be my most favorite), and they taste like real fruit and have a nice chewy texture. They hit the spot and satisfy that craving for gummies, which I admit is a hardcore addiction for me. I recommend them highly as a 70 calorie sweet treat.
I've found I love any and all of the Annie's products. I'm not one that dives into the "I must buy all organic, non-GMO products!!!" mindset, but I have tried their crackers, cookies and mac & cheese. All delightful, though not something I'll buy on a regular basis.

So I had my Talenti vanilla cinnamon less sugar pint last night. Didn’t take pictures because we had the lights off watching TV. I was underwhelmed. It wasn’t bad, but I won’t repurchase. The base tasted like both vanilla and cinnamon, but not enough of either. I felt it was too bland with not enough of the swirl. The cinnamon swirl was pretty good. It was like the yummy cinnamon goo that is inside cinnamon rolls. The bites that had that in it were good. I found myself trying to eat the base up and save the goo for the end so I would feel satisfied. Not a repurchase. I have never had Talenti at all, so I was expecting better. I’m assuming their full sugar/fat pints are better, but I don’t moderate well, so I won’t be finding out!3

I love Talenti. I haven't tried the low calorie pints because the flavors don't interest me at all.
Speaking of low calorie pints, On Second Scoop is totally trashing the B&J low calorie ice creams.
Meh. I'll just stick to regular ice cream when I'm really in the mood for it (still might try the new Artic Zero if I find them, if it's on sale, and if it doesn't taste of artificial sweeteners).1 -

I've tried the new cookie & brownie dough Arctic Zero and wasn't impressed. I usually like almost anything I eat (hence why I was so big in the past) and thought it didn't taste like much - was too subdued. Definitely prefer Enlightened or Halo Top!
I still want to try the Skinny Cow pints - has anyone had them?0 -

Skinny Cow rocky road is awesome - love it and it's my favorite of all the low calorie ice cream I've had. I also tried the oh fudge cookie one and wasn't that impressed and won't buy it again. My other favorite right now is the Chilly Cow brownie batter.2 -

Thanks, I was going to buy the oh fudge cookie flavor - will try the rocky road first now!
I like that Chilly Cow has 1/2 pint sizes. Once a pint is opened I always finish it (I'm an all or nothing guy)! They don't have it available in my usual stores, I will have to make a special trip for it. I will need to give the brownie batter flavor a try.4 -

Honestly the only Arctic Zero Light pints I suggest getting is the toffee crunch or the mint chocolate chip; the others aren’t as impressive. I think you’ll really like it though, they don’t use any artificial sweeteners whatsoever!

Same!
Brownie Batter is actually the only flavor I've tried that I really like, so far. I've also tried Vanilla Graham and Brown Butter Salted Caramel and they were both meh.6 -
Tried the Enlightened Cold Brew the other night! It was very tasty and creamy which I liked, and I loved how strong the coffee flavor was especially compared to Halo Top's Caramel Macchiato. Personally I think it would have been AMAZING if they'd added some dark chocolate or espresso chips, I was really wanting some sort of mix in while I was eating it. Will definitely buy again though!2

Just finished a pint of the Skinny Cow Rock On Rocky Road and agree, it is awesome! I’m usually not a fan of nuts in my ice cream because they usually lose their crunch, but these were nice and crunchy and I really enjoyed them. There was a decent amount of mini marshmallows and the chocolate base was nice.3 -
I think i've officially converted from halo top to chilly cow. I love that they come in half pints. The swirls are so good. I realized that how much more I like it because halo top was also on sale and cheaper... and I still got chilly cow. If i ever hanker for pancakes and waffles or birthday cake flavor though, halo top is still my go to!3

Honestly I just write and ask them if they have any coupons because I never tried their products before but they sound really good. I mention my addiction to their competitors like Halo Top and Enlightened and admit that it’s hard to justify spending around $5 on a new brand and I never see them go on sale! You’d be surprised, companies are usually more than happy to send coupons simply for writing to them (and by writing I’m not talking about handwritten letters or anything - I go to the “Contact Us” section on their website). For Skinny Cow I did this and got free coupons for two pints, and one coupon for 75 cents off a pint. But I also wrote to Sweet Habit just to say I liked their ice cream and recommended a cotton candy flavor and they also sent me a coupon for one quart sized container and one coupon for 75 cents off, just like that! It turns out, both of these companies are owned by Nestle, and their processes/responses seemed very automatic so you should definitely have no problem scoring a coupon if you send them a simple message, even just to say hi!
I even wrote to Monster Caffe to ask where else they sell their bottled coffees and I wrote that I adored their vanilla flavored bottled coffee. Guess what? Free coupon! Nothing negative, and nothing to suggest I owned an influential blog or anything (which I don’t)!kellyjellybellyjelly wrote: »ISweat4This wrote: »
Is this still in stores?
YES. I see it all the time in Shoprite and Target, and it’s still the only cereal I have a really bad addiction to! It’s soooooo good!!!!4 -
Safeway's Signature Reserve line continues to be pretty impressive so far. I really like their Colombian Cold Brew Caramel ice cream. It's got a coffee base with salted caramel swirls and a few chocolate chip pieces. The ice cream tastes almost exactly like Häagen-Dazs coffee ice cream, which is one of my favorite coffee ice creams. It's not quite as dense as that, but still denser than regular ice cream. The salted caramel swirls are delicious, though the saltiness of it is not subtle. The chocolate chips are fine, but I could do without them.

The 3rd flavor, vanilla bean, got in my belly before I could snap a pic. OMG3 -

Dessert hummus confuses me just as much as the concept of a dessert guacamole... o.o But then again, I know there are some recipes circulating online for brownies using chickpeas as an ingredient to keep the fat content low while staying creamy. But then again, there are also quite a bit of food swaps with guacamole... I really hope this doesn't spiral downwards as much as I'm imagining here. Did this actually taste like a dessert? Did you eat it by itself, or did you put it on anything? Does it go on veggie sticks, ice cream, or toast? I'm still so, so confused...1 -

Probably would be good with the cinnamon sugar pita chips that many stores carry, snickerdoodle in particular. Though I find them odd too. Tried the brownie but didn’t interest me. My sister liked it though.

Booty Bands (the brand). I’ve never worked out with resistance bands before but the name is just so cute I might try them out. If anyone has a set, do let me know how they work for someone who lifts light-moderate weights for leg days.0

I loved the brownie batter hummus! Garbanzo beans carry different flavors surprisingly well.3 -
haha I have chocolate dessert hummus in the fridge. It's been there for couple of weeks now, unopened because I can't bring myself to open and try it. I hope it's good!2
