    So I tried two of the new Yoplait Dunkin’ yogurts so far, I still have the apple fritter in my fridge (tried to save best for last but we’ll see). So far, I haven’t been impressed. Not worth the 160 calories for either one. The cinnamon coffee roll was a Whips which I have never been a fan of, but even the Boston Kreme which was the original variety left a lot to be desired. If it didn’t have the label on it I’d never guess they were a Dunkin’ product, and even with the label I’m not tasting any Boston Kreme. Just tastes like chemicals and tart yogurt. Nothing special. I could’ve had a pint of Halo Top for that!

    EDIT; I wasn’t going to try this one tonight, but curiosity killed my diet. The apple fritter, as expected, is a lot better! I really liked Yoplait’s apple crisp yogurt though, and this one tastes IDENTICAL. I think they kept the flavor the same but just changed the label. It wouldn’t surprise me. Chunks of apple and everything, NO difference! I would buy only this flavor again, but I still don’t like saving 160 calories per yogurt....

    I tried the blueberry Clio bar :s the texture is awful. I suppose it's probably like cheesecake but I don't like cheesecake and actively avoid it. And the taste is just stuck in my mouth. I don't think I'll like the 4 other flavors I have just because of the texture.

    If you don't like cheesecake then why'd you buy them? Haha :D

    Because I like greek yogurt and chocolate? I was expecting it to be like an ice cream bar, but it's not moist enough, it's very dry.

    She got a point though, lol.

    I didn't read about the cheesecakiness until I had already bought them. I don't read every side of the box. I had the Ibotta deal and they were cheap and I wasn't going to let them go to waste after I realized they were supposed to be similar to cheesecake. Also, I haven't had cheesecake in like 7 years so I didn't realize it was so dry.

    I tried the vanilla and strawberry Clio bars and was very taken with them. Definitely in my wheelhouse!

    Oooo you had the koookies snickerdoodle too, I thought I remembered someone else said they were good that is why I bought, haha!

    @mexicangreensalsa I didn't try them yet, but I will soon! I found the cereal at Tops.

    Some of the best products I've tried....

    I agree with the kookies, reeses, bang and hersheys! Also for me, nutter butter cereal, skinny syrups, zach brown cookies, I can't remember any right now off the top of my head but I know there are more lol.

    Also how cute are these mini snickers ?! I’ve never seen ones so tiny! They had in a candy dish at a party I was at. Took a few home because they were so cute. p1sn6btspmsa.jpeg

    Super cute but little chocolates frustrate me cuz I always eat a lot of them,probably more than a full size bar's worth haha :D

    On Instagram someone found the new Snickers Maple bar at Walmart.

    Creamy_SNICKERS_Singles_Open_Bars.png

    Out of all three new bars I want to try the Maple & maybe the Almond.

    So I found this in a RiteAid. I tried the Maple but it wasn't too good. None of my family members particularly enjoyed it. It didn't really taste like a Snickers bar.

    I really don't get the Bang Energy hype! In my opinion they taste no different than sugar free rockstar or monster and give me awful headaches??

    I never got headaches, but I agree. Many people here, on other websites, and in real life seem to really love those Bang drinks, but I felt it was a waste of $2.50+tax. Nothing to write home about...

    Favorite products of the year:
    Drink -- Bang Cotton Candy (Caffeine Free)
    Candy -- Reese's Outrageous
    Ice Cream -- Enlightened's S'mores pint
    Diet Dessert -- Chatila's Bakery Chocolate E'toiles from Linda's Diet Delites (the peanut butter version is also really good, but the regular chocolate is still my favorite because it tastes like a chocolate lava cake topped with chocolate ganache)!
    Protein Treat -- Quest Tortilla Chips

    Honestly I've tried several flavors of Bang but I didn't like any of them. I haven't tried any sugar free energy drinks in particular I've liked, so I just drink Full Throttle and deal with the calories.

    I bought both, and neither are worth it. Too little frosting, and hardly any filling inside of the cereal pieces. They basically just taste like extra-crunchy bits of pop tart crust with a small bit of chewy stuff inside. Of the two, strawberry was slightly better, since it had a hint of strawberry flavor, while the brown sugar one didn’t really taste like anything.

    Darn, I wish I read this earlier I just got a box :( Who knows, maybe I got a lucky one where the machines messed up and added way too much filling and icing!

    Looks interesting! I wonder how different these will be from their Paleo pancake mix? I loooove that one!

    I loved the cauliflower and the broccoli cauliflower mix ones. Let us know how this one is. I thought it was a nice easy alternative if you want to bring on the go or if you are traveling because doesn’t have to be refrigerated and lasts awhile.

    I tried Chobani's new lower sugar flip/mix-ins yogurt in the lemon cookie crunch flavor. It has a lower sugar lemon yogurt along with lemon cookie crumble and white chocolate citrus chunks.
    1jo51ebgsxiy.jpg
    This is a bit similar to Fage's lemon with shortbread crumble crossover yogurt. The yogurt tastes pretty good, though I prefer Fage's lemon crossover yogurt as they have actual lemon chunks in the yogurt which adds a little something extra. I wasn't too impressed by Chobani's mix-ins here. The cookies were hard and the white chocolate was too sweet, whereas Fage's shortbread is much better as it's soft, crumbly, and buttery. Overall though, Chobani's yogurt still tastes fine and would be something that I might get again - it's only 140 calories v Fage's 210, so it's easier to fit in.

    I also picked up two more flavors but haven't tried them yet - raspberry chocolate crunch and vanilla mocha crunch. These use Chobani's less sugar Willamette raspberry and Madagascar vanilla cinnamon yogurts.

    Wow, I was looking for these, too!!! D: Thanks for saving me that disappointment!!!

    Where were these? These actually look REALLY good! Although I'm not sure if I consider 6 grams of protein to be that great... but I guess if they're 33 grams each they're about half the size of a regular bar so it isn't bad, either... I wonder how many calories are in them?

    @hgycta I don't even register it anymore when I read "protein" on bars anymore because everything says protein now. I've seen bars with as low as 3g say "HIGH PROTEIN", :D . I almost got but reminded myself how many snacks I have to eat up so didn't, but wonder how they are. If they get good reviews I will probably buy in the future. They had 140 calories and I opened the box to see how big they were LOL. (Anyone else guilty of this? Sometimes I just need to see how big they are!) They were pretty small, like the size of a clif zbar.

    Target had SO many great food sales, 50 percent off all christmas candy. I resisted so hard from buying hershey gold snack size, reeses trees, reeses pieces mini cups, and reeses giant cup all half price! I was looking for the cinnamon churro cereal but I guess only walmart has.

    Oh, I might pick those up then. Sometimes I need something right around that calorie range for a little snack or dessert. Those would be perfect.
