Agreed I took most of the pop rocks off the donut but it was okay and the coolata DID NOT have enough cotton candy flavor for me

I tried these other week because checkout51 app had 4 cashback so was like free. The chocolate pb were really good, definitely worth trying. They were a lot better than trader jo plain peanut butter brand.
I read a review on these on junkbanter last week and he said the honey peanut butter were the best ones. I almost bought some of the Trader Joe's ones today. Glad I didn't now.
The trader jo ones were too "corny" tasting, which I wasn't a fan of. They weren't sweet either, reminded me of more of unsweetened powdered peanut butter coated plain corn puffs. I mean they weren't terrible, but wouldn't buy again. The nutter puffs were sweeter, lighter and fluffier with a really nice peanut butter chocolate dusting. I didn't try the plain pb ones, but since you said those got good reviews I probably will. There is still a 2 off coupon for them on checkout51.
The honey peanut butter ones are what he said were best. I uploaded checkout51. I hope Walmart has those and the pop corners I want. They're both on there but one ends tomorrow. Thanks for mentioning that.0 -
Lil buff protein cakes have been a life changer! I’ve been on a cocoa crave kick. Great macros and more importantly the taste. I did the brownie version tonight and it seriously delivered. Solid source of fiber too Would be even more amazing with a smudge of frosting, peanut butter or some vanillla ice cream/fro yo.

Yes, I need this too! Do you have to order online? This is the chocolate cake mix or the coco stuff?0 -
Today I tried the new dunkin donut cotton candy coolata and the cotton candy donut. Neither impressed me. The donut did not have any cotton candy flavor and not enough popping candy. The little puffs were a nice crunch, though. Coolata tasted ok in the beginning but I didn't really taste cotton candy. After like 2 minutes it just tasted like ice.
I also found Chilly Cow at my walmart today. I just had salted caramel and OMG SOOO GOOD! I'm afraid this is better than Halo Top! And I didn't think anything was better than Halo Top. I hope other flavors are as good.2 -
Caribou coffee is getting bubble drinks! Square, caramel flavored 'bubbles'. Got an email about it. Perks members can try them early today and tommorrow! I want to go get one tommorrow morning but they probably will be out. Caribou is a midwest US thing, I think?

All I can say is... WOW. The company's website says: "Eat it chilled for a rich fudge-like treat--Eat it warm for a lava chocolate avalanche." I had it both ways; chilled I thought it was more filling, but without comparison I thought having it microwaved for about 15 seconds made them PERFECT. The outside was still a little cool and tasted like chocolate ganache, whereas the inside was like molten lava cake! Neither of my parents knew it was low calorie when they tried them.
However, I'm a little confused over the calories. The nutrition facts says it has 90 calories for a 75 gram serving, and that each e'toile is 2 servings (which should be 150 grams). Likewise, the pack of four e'toiles says it weighs 600 grams. However, when I weighed each e'toile it was anywhere from 89g-100g. All four e'toiles were 400 grams, not 600 grams. Either the nutrition facts is incorrect or I somehow received smaller e'toiles than normal (or the company just rips people off). I'm not sure if I should log 180 calories per that 150 gram serving or if I should log it as being 120 calories since it's actually a 100 gram serving?
Also, I noticed the ThinSlim Foods glazed cookies I always ordered looked a lot different than they usually do. They must have changed their recipe, and it's not for the better. Very weird and more artificial tasting now. There's something I don't like at all about it. I used to adore these cookies but now I won't be buying them again
Omg in the top pic is that the slim thins new recipe cookie??? Looks so much different. I really liked those so I am sad to see they change. Those e'toiles look amazing, WOW! But 24 for a 4 pack?! They need to have some better sales lol. I saw they have some real bakeries in some areas. I wish they had around me because they sell the products at more reasonable prices.
Yeah, it is VERY different looking and not nearly as good as it used to be!!! it’s not as messy to eat now, but that’s pretty much the only positive aspect of the new recipe. I went to Chatila’s website and it looks just as expensive pretty much on their own website except they only sell them in a 6 pack, go figure! Chatila’s bakery wrote back and said they’re hand cut so when they weigh less like mine do it means I got some with more cake than fudge so I should log it as less calories. I wonder how often that happens though >~> kind of expensive for it to be 100 grams less per pack than it should have been, that’s basically an entire e’toille!

I LOVE lil buff cakes! They have some frosting recipes on their website, but personally I’m not a fan of any of them (especially the ones with sugar free pudding mix)! My all time favorite is the caramel apple flavor mix they release as a seasonal flavor... do yourself a favor and try that ASAP once it comes back! They also have a recipe where you can make the cake mixes using Diet Coke instead of the applesauce, milk, and egg whites, which is a lot more convenient and I thought tasted pretty similar. However, the next time I buy more of the regular mix (working through some packs of ginger shred still which won’t taste as good with this) I’m definitely using the Diet Coke recipe but instead of sod I’m going to use that Bang cotton candy drink since it’s carbonated
another hack if you’re making it per instructions, if you add some instant coffee powder (I use 2 of those Folgers packs to go) it tastes phenomenal).Caribou coffee is getting bubble drinks! Square, caramel flavored 'bubbles'. Got an email about it. Perks members can try them early today and tommorrow! I want to go get one tommorrow morning but they probably will be out. Caribou is a midwest US thing, I think?
I REALLY wish there was a Caribou Coffee near me, this looks to die for!!!0 -
Pecan Cereal sounded like a good flavor, but it disappointed. Not much pecan or cereal flavor. Too artificial and "low-calorie" tasting, even though it's 130 calories.

@melissa6771 yes! it's online only. an instagrammer i follow has a promo code so if you enter ALEX, it'll get you money off!
yes, I get the cocoa crave and the fit fetti. there's a ton of recipes on their blog too so this one was the cocoa crave brownie version (adding pumpkin and cocoa powder)1 -
@melissa6771 yes! not a fan of their frosting recipes either - I rather save the macros for the real deal, or lately, i've been having fro yo which is an awesome combo. yes! I actually usually do the diet coke (seltzer actually) version since it's even easier and taste-wise, very comprable. although last night, using the pumpkin, was a serious texture game changer. seriously fudgey and even more fiber so double win there 0

Do you have a ratio for the soda option? Is it like a can to a pack? Oh, and how much pumpkin did you use?! Sounds yummmm0 -

Not bad! Thanks.0 -
So, I checked Amazon for Mars protein bars, and see that there are also MILKY WAY PROTEIN BARS!!! But they are $65 for a box of 18.
$47 for a box of 18 of Mars. Ouch. Not happening.3 -
@hgycta thanks for the heads up on the Frosted Flakes/Lucky Charms cereal. Bought a box of it at Target, but I have to admit I was a little annoyed that Wal-Mart started to carry it again in a larger container for a dollar more.1

@kaygold hey! so for the soda option it's 60g of the cake mix (serving size) with 90ml of seltzer/diet soda.
for the brownie version, it's 60g cake mix, 10g dark chocolate cocoa powder, 100g pumpkin puree, 2 tbsp eggwhites and 1/4 cup milk.
you can also follow the packaged recipe on the back of the bag and substitute the apple sauce for 100g of pumpkin. i've also done 100g of banana and that turns out really good too!
it's really flexible in that sense which i love so plenty of tasty possibilities 0 -
@hgycta yah! i think she has some ambassadors so they have discount codes, so it's like $3.00 off and yes it always works

Some new finds in Target; I ended up buying both flavors of the Starbucks almond milk drinks even though I don’t like the almond milk they use in their stores because I thought it was 2 for $3, but it was actually for the refreshers and I paid $2.67 each so I really hope they’re good >~<

THANK YOU x million! I am so trying these with the packs I have at home! Can't wait!1 -
Welp... before anyone gets too excited over the new Starbucks smoothie coffee drinks be warned, I just looked at the ingredients list and it has pea protein.... *facepalm* I’m still going to try one when I’m in a rush somewhere and can’t make coffee at home but yikes... I REALLY don’t have high hopes now!
