I would just like to say that I keep getting Sonic ads for those cookie dough sundae/blast thingies on the side of this forum now. I don't even have a Sonic anywhere near me.

Gotta love programmatic advertising

I also picked this up on my TJ's run. It is interesting. It doesn't taste like hummus to me--it's sort of like a mildly sweet brownie batter. I kinda like it, but I feel like it would be better marketed as "vegan brownie batter dip" or something similar, rather than "chocolate hummus."

Delighted By was the first dessert hummus brand... they recently rebranded to be a "dessert" brand because they found exactly this... that calling it hummus was a bit off putting.

Im going to look for these. Where did you get them?

Scored at Trader Joe's tonight. They had the hummus and the light ice creams.

The hummus is really good! But I agree about the name.

I haven't tried the ice creams yet but I'll get to them in the coming weeks. I have some pistachio halo tops to get through first.

I don't think it's new, but I had apple pie dannon light n fit Greek yogurt.
It was delicious

I posted about their wild shrimp burgers before, and now found they have wild tuna burgers as well. Delish. Just had two patties for dinner last night in a proper burger form with bun and all the trimmings. They grill beautifully on the bbq and dont fall apart.

WHERE did you find these? They look amazing!!

This might be too healthy for this thread! Very tasty and amazingly satisfying at 133 cals!
I don’t ever eat premade stuff like this but gave this a try on a busy night. Will definitely buy a few to pop in the freezer though!

I don't even like fish but this looks really good. I wish they made a chicken version.

I tried the Bobs oat bars. I didn't like them at all. Like a larabar with oats in it. Not very good and I wouldn't buy. I had a bite of the apple, chocolate peanut butter, coconut and banana peanut butter. None of them were that great. 3/10

Thanks for your opinion on them,I hate Larabars so if they taste like that I'll pass💁

Forgot to post photo so you can see texture better. They were really dense like larabar without nuts but oats instead. Wouldn’t buy or eat again and I like larabars.

I was expecting them to be more like a cookie or baked good.

I'm not a fan of oat based bars in general! I like some larabars... the ones heavier on nuts. REALLY don't like Rxbars.

No idea what these will taste like, but they popped up on my Facebook feed today.

I'm always disappointed by "unicorn" flavored things because, for some reason, I keep expecting it to be cotton candy but it's more blue raspberry.

I bought both varieties and tried the cookies and cream this afternoon. It's fine, nothing amazing. It has an odd flavor that I can't quite place. Maybe it's the coffee powder (and why would they put that in cookies and cream ice cream??). I'll finish it but not buy it again. Will report back when I try the chocolate peanut butter!

I tried the chocolate peanut butter. I think it's MUCH better than the cookies and cream, and also better than the Halo Top chocolate peanut butter. There are some peanut butter swirls, but not a lot, if that's your thing. The chocolate and peanut butter flavors are nicely balanced with no weird aftertaste that you get from some "light" ice creams, and it has a nice consistency. I'd buy this one again.

Thanks for reviewing! My favorite cookies and cream light ice cream is Breyer's Delights. I'll have to get over to TJ's to try chocolate peanut butter! Halo Top version was awful IMO.

Did you ever try the Breyer's Delights caramel brownie? It's still my favorite light ice cream...until it gets replaced by something else

I've actually got a pint of Halo Top chocolate peanut butter in the freezer right now because one of the local GOs has been stocking it. It's not my favorite, but for $1.99 a pint, I'll eat it!

On the topic of ice cream, I saw this stuff in a store today: https://www.fastcompany.com/90280958/can-this-sleep-friendly-ice-cream-really-help-you-catch-more-zzzs. I don't buy any of the "science" claiming that this ice cream is going to help me sleep, and I didn't buy this either--it was over $6 a pint!--but it exists if someone wants to try it.
