    Dammit, built bar! And it's covered in milk chocolate which I've been hoping for in a full size bar because their milk chocolate is reeeeeeally good but I can't buy more.

    I just ordered a box today! I'll report back on taste when it comes :)

    To rub it in???????

    😀

    Lmao! Yes.

    The cheetos popcorn is nothing special

    Darn, I almost chose that instead of regular popcorn when I went to the movies. I was craving regular popcorn and it's awful, nowhere near as good as I remembered, so next time I was going to try Cheetos. Used to love Doritos but don't like those anymore either.

    Don't know how new these are, but they are really good. But so are the Field Roast vegan sausage and Chao vegan cheese they are based on... So not a surprise:

    Rojo's Famous 100% Plant-Based Pancake Sandwich: Apple Maple Sausage & Creamy Chao Cheese

    248 calories. 13 grams protein.

    ... What I would recommend for folks who want chocolate and can't have dairy is to try out dark chocolate, which by definition does not contain milk. Dark chocolate does not have to be super dark.

    I'm not much of a fan of dark chocolate with a few exceptions: Oskri dark chocolate enrobed coconut bars, Unreal's version of the same (not super fond of the rest of the dark chocolate based Unreal line), and some peanut/nut butter cups like the 2BFree line. Justin's is apparently too dark for me. It's ok but not something I would deliberately buy.

    I really prefer vegan milk chocolates such as in the Go Max Go line of homages to Snickers (Jokerz) and other related chocolate bars. There are others also based on non-dairy milks that work for me. Sjaak's has some great vegan milk chocolate options, for example.

    But people who like dark chocolate have loads of non-dairy options, especially if they aren't sensitive to small amounts of dairy left in processing equipment or don't have any other objections to accidental traces.

    Fortunately, I'm not a chocoholic because my older brother was, and he always ate all the chocolate before I could get to it...

    Really. Mom would get Neapolitan ice cream, and he would quickly dig out all the chocolate, then all the vanilla, and then start working on the strawberry. I don't know why she kept buying it! My brother did not need the calories for sure.

    Oooooh....
    I tried this brand recently as I'm trying to limit my dairy, I've only tried the Blueberry and the Chocolate Peanut Butter, but I'd like to try this flavour.

    Morning Star product. New to me. Tried it because on sale and that they dont pretend to be meat anything. I was surprised how GREAT these tasted. Definite buy when on sale again.

    Those are good! I like their spicy black bean burgers, too.

    been a big consumer of fairlife milk for years now. lactose intolerance has me stuck with almond and cashew milk which I do like actually but not as much as the real thing, cows milk. I just this week came across a Kroger brand of carb master ultra filtered milk with even better macro specs than fairlife by a hair! tried it like just as much as fairlife. nice to now have 2 brands to pick from for my milk fix and nutrient needs.

    Organic Valley Ultra milk is another option. I think it is only at Whole Foods at this time, and it's pretty pricey.

    I'll have to look for the Kroger version.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Organic Valley products taste too milky to me if that makes sense, almost a "gone bad" taste? It's probably just me🤷

    Endangered Species chocolate just came out with an oat "milk chocolate," although I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

    Guys, the cookies and cream Built Bars are SUCH a disappointment :/ They taste so similar to the salted caramel ones that I'm almost sure that they just mixed that with their regular chocolate flavor. I was kinda hoping for maybe a white filling with some small cookie flakes or something. Pretty bummed I spent so much on a box, but what can ya do? I do like the salted caramel flavor, so guess it's not a complete waste.

    Oh, thank god! I HATED the salted caramel bars! But, that milk chocolate's good, huh? I bought a box of the kids built bars and it's the best part of the birthday cake and cinnamon flavored ones. :)

    Er....also, I'm sorry you spent so much on a flavor you don't completely love. :)

    Might pick the new sweet earth meals at target if I go because I loved their burritos and pizzas in the past. Thought I'd share they are free with ibotta cash back.

    Update on the Birch benders Magic Syrups: HATED them at first... had a super artificial taste. BUT I've found that when you warm them up they taste like actual maple syrup! I tried them cold at first... warming it up makes all the difference. Random but thought I'd share :)

    okay not a new product but I don't want to be that person that starts a new thread on a topic that's been discussed 10,000 times.

    BUT... for those who have tried ONE bars, what is your favorite flavor?? Ranking of flavors??

    Recently bought some on sale (not my go-to protein bar) and am thinking of buying some more... but I want to make sure the flavors I'm getting are actually worth buying!

    Thoughts??

    The one’s are my favorite as far as protein bars go.

    I love the chocolate chip cookie dough, peanut butter cup and maple donut.

    I like (but not my favorite) birthday cake, lemon and almond bliss.

    The only one I have tried but didn’t like was the dark chocolate sea salt.
