Review: thinkThin Pumpkin Spice Protein & Fiber Bar


So I guess it's that time to roll through all the Limited Edition pumpkin-flavored bars since they are overloading the shelves of my local grocery stores.  I already looked at one pumpkin-flavored bar earlier this week, so now it's time to add another thinkThin review to the blog and take a look at this thinkThin Pumpkin Spice Protein & Fiber Bar that I was able to pick up at Kroger for $1.00.  It clocks in at 1.41 ounces and has a modest 150 calories with ten grams of protein.

Review: Fiber One 90 Calorie Pumpkin Soft-Baked Bars


Yet again, the world is over-pumpkined.  As I was browsing through Kroger recently, today's product jumped up on me as I was rounding the corner from one aisle to the next.  Sitting innocently on the end cap of one of the aisles were several boxes of Fiber One 90 Calorie Pumpkin Soft-Baked Bars and being that I had never seen these before since they are limited edition, they were on sale AND I had a digital coupon (the most important part), I knew that I had to grab a box of six for $2.79 (before coupon) to add to the ever-growing Fiber One review collection.  Each bar in the box is the obvious 90 calories with less than one gram of protein, which is kind of funny.  On a positive note though, this 0.89 ounce bar does contain 20% of my daily fiber intake (or what would be 20% if I actually ate a 2,000 calorie diet).

Review: Chobani Pumpkin Spice 2% Blended Greek Yogurt


I had this conversation on Twitter several weeks back, but at what point do we say that the pumpkin spice flavor profile has jumped the shark and become overplayed?  I like the pumpkin flavor profile as much as anyone have certainly eaten A LOT of pumpkin products (beer, smoothies, ice cream, etc.), but even as a lover of that flavor, I'm starting to get a little tired of seeing this stuff all over the place.  One could almost argue that pumpkin is becoming the new vanilla because it's popping up everywhere.  Anyway, Chobani is another one to fall victim to the craze as today's review adds to my review collection as I take a look at one of their limited batch offerings in this Chobani Pumpkin Spice 2% Blended Greek Yogurt that I picked up at Marsh for $1.09.  Each 5.3 ounce single serving cup has 130 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: JELL-O Pumpkin Spice Cheescake Snacks


I've said it before in reviews, but I'll say it again:  I absolutely LOVE pudding and little snack packs of the like.  I've reviewed many pudding-type products on the blog throughout the three years of its existence and I've spent a lot of those reviews looking at the seemingly never ending (thankfully) line of JELL-O products.  So, it was with great delight that I noticed in a recent trip to Kroger that JELL-O has rolled out a limited edition version of a seasonal treat that happens to be one of my favorite seasonal flavors with this four pack of JELL-O Pumpkin Spice Cheescake Snacks.  This one cost me $2.00 and each cup within the pack is 4.25 ounces and has 130 calories.  Just to be specific, these are technically pudding snacks as you can see above since the package is clearly labeled "Cheesecake Snacks."  It doesn't really matter to me because I was very anxious to dive in.

Review: MyOatmeal.com Pumpkin Spice PB Lean


I've mentioned in previous reviews that MyOatmeal.com was kind enough to send me a promo code to try out some of their products and I picked up several of them to try out.  I have to admit though, of all the products that I picked out, today's review of this 1.5 pound bag of MyOatmeal.com Pumpkin Spice PB Lean was the one that I was looking forward to the least and I'm not quite sure why either.  I typically am fascinated and enjoy pumpkin-flavored products, but for some reason, mixing pumpkin spice with peanut butter seemed horrifying to me.  Not sure why, but it just did.  Anyway, this bag had 48+ servings at fourteen grams each and each serving had 57 calories.

Review: Sunbelt Bakery Harvest Spice Chewy Granola Bars


So apparently spice is only allowed to be used as a flavor characteristic in the fall to warm people up.  I don't necessarily agree, but whatever.  It's another striving for a fall product that leads me to another review of the upcoming and coming Sunbelt Bakery products with this box of ten Sunbelt Bakery Harvest Spice Chewy Granola Bars that I picked up on sale at Marsh for $2.99.  Each bar in the box is 0.952 ounces (how precise!) and is 110 calories with one gram of protein, which would ordinarily be laughable, but since this is just a tiny snack bar, it's really all that notable.
