I'm still enjoying the frozen rise-overnight croissants a lot. They're delicious for tiny frozen croissants.

Mango cream bars are good. But very tiny.

vegetable pakoras are yum. a bit of heat with a nice long finish.

I got the lemon scented kitchen hand soap. The lemon smells like a food additive rather than something that would be used in a lotion or soap. But at least it isn't harsh and drying; I don't think it's warm enough for that yet.

Frozen fusilli w/ pesto and veggies was good but not great.

I can't get enough of the turkey meatballs! They are shockingly good.

is this new 'hazelnut chocolate' spread actually rebadged nutella?
― Philip Nunez, Friday, 27 April 2012 00:05 (twelve years ago) link
i think their chickenless mandarin chicken and breaded chickenless tenders are actually gardein products - but at half the price.
― just1n3, Friday, 27 April 2012 02:43 (twelve years ago) link
I liked the chickenless tenders but man, they were really oily after baking in the toaster oven.

lol that's what i like about them!!

Fruit & Nut Trek Mix bars are p good but way too cranberryish, but still a nice deal at $2.50/box of 6

just bought valencia peanut butter w/ roasted flaxseeds -- what to eat with it? unfortunately all i have is an orange.

breaded eggplants cutlets are my new jam.
― kate78, Friday, 27 April 2012 17:53 (twelve years ago) link
those are great.
― Sgt. Dee Dee The Brass Cupcake McCall (get bent), Friday, 27 April 2012 17:57 (twelve years ago) link
Agreed. So good and actually sort of healthy.
― Spencer Chow, Friday, 27 April 2012 19:03 (twelve years ago) link
OK, I will be in TJs in an hour or so, I am low-carbing as mentioned on another thread, and I need a good snack. If I eat another package of buffalo chicken meatballs I will likely turn orange. ADVISE ME ILE.

is chocolate a carb? the chocolate-covered almonds with turbine? salt seem to be cheaper than even plain roasted almonds (but it could be they put it in a subtly smaller carton).
― Philip Nunez, Friday, 27 April 2012 20:17 (twelve years ago) link
chocolate usually has tons of sugar and almonds have some carbs of their own, but i'll check the label

This is the fucking best.
Um, get some bread?
― i don't believe in zimmerman (Hurting 2), Friday, 27 April 2012 21:48 (twelve years ago) link
couldn't find any bread -- ended up dipping a nature valley granola bar in it. it had more of a jam consistency than i expected but it was still delicious. i wonder if i can freeze the peanut butter by itself and make a peanut butter bar...
― Philip Nunez, Friday, 27 April 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
Their fig butter is awesome!

Frozen palak paneer if you want something hot. Cheese and various salumi for something cold. The super high % dark chocolate bars aren't too bad w/r/t carbs if you can limit yourself to eating 2 or 3 sections. Avocados.
― Jaq, Friday, 27 April 2012 23:57 (twelve years ago) link
The frozen paneer is great too. Certainly the best prepackaged version I've had.
― Spencer Chow, Saturday, 28 April 2012 00:12 (twelve years ago) link

not low-carb, but: the raisin-rosemary crisps are amazing. i wish i was having a party soon so i could pass these around.

Wasabi seaweed snax!
― tehresa, Saturday, 28 April 2012 00:38 (twelve years ago) link
I am a big fan of the frozen palak paneer
― dayo, Saturday, 28 April 2012 00:40 (twelve years ago) link
most of these suggestions came too late, will try next time, esp wasabi seaweed snax which sounds amazing. In fact I didn't really get much snack except artichoke-parmesan dip, but I did get a tri-tip roast and a tub of hollandaise sauce and I gotta say this made a fine family meal with very little expenditure of effort on my part.

I like to put this on these bagel-based "power bar" things they sell in my supermarket's bakery - they've got dried fruit and seeds in them, it works really well.

Alternately just spread it on some saltines but keep a bucket of water handy cause you'll be thirsty.

Could, not would. Unless there was some sort of monetary reward.

Yeah I ended up getting rid of my jar of it because it was too dangerous; clear I would OD.
― Dale, dale, dale (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 01:24 (twelve years ago) link
So weird: Put together ingredients and bake cookies that are then disintegrated to make them an ingredient in another thing - will the speculoos chain grow? The obvious use for a sweet paste is in cookies --- cookies within cookies!
― Pita Malört (Je55e), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 01:38 (twelve years ago) link
They have a candy bar filled with it, which is awesome. Now they just have to make a cookie with chunks of the candy bar baked into it.
― Dale, dale, dale (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 01:39 (twelve years ago) link
Finished products used as ingredients have always seemed weird to me. Even stuffing/dressing is odd.
OTOH, I'm kind of a master of combining independently complete foods, so it shouldn't seem that strange to me.

Let me just say that the frozen turkey meatballs are the best I've had outside of my Abruzzo-born great grandmother's kitchen. Like, for any meatball period, not just turkey.
