Keebler Pumpkin Spice Cookies

Invalid Link Removed

I honestly could not even tell you the last time I had a keebler cookie, but if you are putting pumpkin and spice into something I will probably buy it.

Scent --> Extremely strong out of the box, which sometimes is a blessing or a curse

Taste --> The spice on these are strong. Think strong like Coldstone or Handel's ice cream strong with cinnamon, clove, and ginger hitting all aspects of every single spice associated with pumpkin. Usually companies go heavy on cinnamon, this brings the tri-fecta. The pumpkin flavor is not as strong (more aftertaste) or balance as expected, but if you love the spice aspect you are going to be in your glory.
The glaze provides a nice sweetness to the cookie, sometimes these glazes can provide an artificial aftertaste which I got none of here.

I went into these with low expectations, but came away with much higher then expected. If you love pumpkin, and pumpkin spices these will be a hit

Grade: 8/10

It's expensive as crap. We are living in a one bed, one bath apartment and saving as much money as we can for when we can get back south.

Where in PA do you live? Not that I'd know it but I visit the Dubois/Punxy area from time to time and take the PA turnpike on the way to Cleveland. Maybe I've seen a sign?

Ah, okay. I pass 81, which goes to Harrisburg, as I'm driving through Hagerstown on 270, then 70. That's as close as I get.

Like I said some posts above, they are in the freezer :P I store all my cheat foods there because no roommate will touch them and it's hard to cheat on frozen food.

thesolution: haha i'm glad they are good! I'll look forward to it

Cookie & Scream M&M's

Invalid Link Removed
.
��These are a combination of a dark chocolate shell with a white chocolate center. The only problem is the dark chocolate far our flavors the white chocolate by a large margin. I would say the dark chocoalte is 80% of the taste and the white chocolate is a mere aftertaste. While this is a neat Halloween gimmick, this is not a top tier M&M for me. I was looking to get a better balance of dark/white chocolate, and more of an oreo cookie resemblance, but that was missed. Overall pick up a pack to try, but not a must have if you can not find them.

Apple Pie Oreos

Invalid Link Removed

��Nabisco Apple Pie Oreo's��
.
��Found @ Target & Walmart
.
��Taste: This oreo features a graham cookie with an apple pie filling. The graham cookie shell is also featured in the recent Key Lime Pie oreo's which IMO is their best cookie. The graham gives a strong graham cracker flavor and has a subtle amount of sweetness. The filling reminds me of cinnamon coated apples with a splash of nutmeg in the aftertaste. I must say Oreo hit all the elements of an apple pie here with the filling and spices. The slight downside is a small artificial flavoring which tastes like a caramel undertone. This is the only negative note. If you are an apple pie fan get these! These are good, but I give PB&J a higher notch on the scale rating for LE flavors this year

Well u guys were right. The Marketside (Walmart) brand fresh baked cookies /Pumpkin white choco macadamia were great!
Some people only get to eat boxed cookies, but really gotta have some soft, chewy fresh cookies as they hardly comparable. Surely worth the $1 paid for 3 of them lol.

Thesolution: Ooh, so what did u end up getting at that bakery?

read my IG (@Bkupniewski) full review there.
2/10 one of the worst thing I ever had.. EVER..Do not buy, sure as hell not worth 410 calories. Tastes like bland flour, and the filling tastes NOTHING like pumpkin. Huge bust.

The fact that they're KK is enough to steer me away from them. Lol!

It is a one day special, two I love pumpkin, and three my co-workers paid for them.
So win win.. haha

But yeah they were pretty lackluster if you are a huge pumpkin guy (like myself). The taste is so small and only noticed in the aftertaste. KK Is known for their OG Glaze and every time they try a spinoff, it usually results in a subpar end result.

For free, I probably would have tried them too. Lol!
Don't like their glazed donuts either. Maybe it's just their glaze.....
