I don’t know if anyone has tried The Cheesecake Factory’s ice cream but I needed to come out of the woods to report how massively impressed I am with it! At first I thought “oh it’s just regular ice cream with The Cheesecake Factory’s logo slapped on it,” but no, no it is not. Scooping it, you can tell it’s very dense and high quality, much like a Haagen-Dazs. The flavor is what got me though. I expected regular cookies & cream, but it literally tasted like a cookies & cream CHEESECAKE made into a higher quality ice cream. It’s tart, yet balanced enough with sweetness for me to like it and not find it too overbearing. Perfectly balanced. Looking at the ingredients, the second ingredient is “sour cream,” and the base is literally a “cheesecake base,” not a sweet cream base like I would normally expect. I bought this on a whim from Safeway because I had a $5 off $5 or more coupon in the app, but I’m so glad I did and I will be going back to try the others, starting with the mint flavored one! It’s a game changer for ice cream 10/10! Even if you’re not a huge cheesecake person (I normally am not), you need to try it for the experience xD Just don’t go into it expecting and craving a true cookies & cream ice cream, or else you might be disappointed. I think because of that it might’ve gotten some negative reviews, from disappointment when it doesn’t meet your expectations of being a regular ice cream, but I’ll be getting it again because I don’t always want just regular ice cream, I crave variety.
UPDATE: I saw green and assumed mint, but I think it’s actually key lime pie... Dang. :’) </3
Has anyone tried the onion ring type of peatos yet?
I had the fiery one and they're really good! Nice kick to it and doesn't taste like peas at all lol.
I used to eat funyuns as a kid. Anything similar to those?
Sorry it took so long to respond to this -- yes, they taste very similar to Funyuns! Almost better because Peatos are crunchier I've only tried the fiery ones, but I hear the original are identical to Funyuns.
Story time: we went to a Lidl the other day and husband (who grew up in Northern Ireland) hoped desperately it would be like an import store with all his childhood Lidl loves from Europe. Sadly, it was not, but we still found a few goodies to try!
I’ve had Jaffa cakes before but I feel like they’ve always been dry, dense and unpleasant. These are ADDICTIVE. Super light and soft cookie, sweet orange jelly, and a thin, crispy little shell of chocolate. Amazing
These rice cakes are exquisite. The cinnamon ones are super cinnamon-y and the caramel ones are very sweet. They’re small and crispy and delightful
This is popcorn coated in Old Bay. I don’t think I have to sell it any more lol
These taste exactly like pita chips, but they’re a thin, crispy puff. It’s an absolute texture food; completely addicting for the crunchy factor. Thank goodness they aren’t filled with something or I’d be in huge trouble.
EDIT: I tried to swap the last 2 captions since the last 2 pics got out of order but then the post crashed and I’m on mobile so copy/paste takes minutes instead of seconds so I’m not doing it again
@hgycta I looked for that Cheesecake Factory ice cream after seeing your post about it, and I agree - it's delicious and the flavor is unique! I also loved that there seemed to be chunks of chocolate, which you don't usually have in regular Cookies and Cream flavor.
Not ‘new’ at all but my store had a BOGO sale on Annie’s gluten free shells and cheese; the deluxe kind that comes with a packet of cheese sauce instead of cheese powder. Holy frick it is delicious. If I’m going to be spending money on GF mac n cheese, I’m sticking with deluxe from now on
Thanks for posting this! I ordered a variety box after finding a 20% off coupon. $40 for the three premade pizzas and a box of two pizza crusts, including the shipping on dry ice, isn't a bad price at all. I know once they hit stores around here, they will definitely charge $8 to $10 per pizza anyway.
I'm not big on pasta but I am allergic to most boxed pastas because of the ferrous sulfate in the enriched dough. When I do want pasta, Banza has been a great alternative. I've tried several alternatives and theirs taste the most like pasta to me. Since I have the same enriched dough issue with most pizza and calcium sulfate, I'm really looking forward to theirs.
Not that good. They sound and look good but are mediocre. Not sweet at all. Not enough chocolate.
The cinnamon ones are better but not amazing. They remind me of a mix between a pastry and a graham cracker. Nice cinnamon flavor and vanilla icing but I wouldn’t get them again.
I already received my Banza pizza yesterday and I have to say I'm pretty impressed so far. I had the Margherita one for dinner last night.
It cooked evenly and the crust got nice and crispy; it didn't have that soggy middle like many frozen pizzas do. I would buy this again because it was way better than the Caulipower Margherita pizza. However, I think next time I would add spices to it because, despite the high sodium content, the flavor could have been amped up a bit.

Yum that looks good! I emailed them and they are sending me free coupons to try them!
Anyone do the free rainbow Oreos I posted !? Still live!! I got mine and they were good. They are like double stuff Oreos. They tasted good but the red had a weird butter flavor to it. The rest I think taste like normal Oreos but it’s been a long time since I had regular oreos. The colors are fun though.
I wish each flavor was a different flavor like red- cherry, orange-orange chocolate, yellow-lemon, green-pistachio, blue-blueberry and purple-grape lol.
Fun fact: I really don’t like plain water. I love sparkling water, and sometimes I like fruit in my water like lemon or whatever, but on the whole I just really don’t like water. I found these at WalMart and I was excited because they’re made with sugar (I can taste fake sugar and it’s usually gross). I doubled up (2 in 16 oz of water) and it was FANTASTIC. Before anyone comes for me, I know, but for ME personally, 20 extra calories to encourage me to get 16 extra oz of water that I wouldn’t have otherwise touched is absolutely 100% worth it.
