Did you ever have the OG Myofusion Vanilla? It was literally just like butterscotch. I miss it.

I checked Stop and Shop today for the pumpkin cereals and nutri grain bars. I did not see any.
 
No need to reiterate previous point/arguments. Each of you has an eating pattern that is amenable to your lives.

Soon enough Bob will be a shredded d*ck kent who will be able to resume normal calories...

...and mkretz please post your food, if you get **** for it, I'll deflect...seriously can't stand to see one more copy pasta from impulsive buy, junk banter, etc...

...if I were interested in their reviews, I'd go to their websites...*smh*

Fine dining Italian tomorrow :)
 
Ok, so I have a backlog of more than 30+ pictures to get through, but we'll begin today. Now these will all be baked goods...why?

Because going out to eat here (for the savory things) is incredibly expensive. To give you an idea, a large sub + drink at Subway is $23 dollars. And since this country doesn't have many immigrants, no good ethnic cuisine translates to much more boring offerings.

Apricot Kuchen:

From one of my first days here, so it's a supermarket version. Average honestly. They make these here with a custard type cream in between the fruit slices and the dough is soft. It's a fairly classic dessert so I might have to give a real bakery version another shot.

OK here it comes donuts... Took the train to NYC to hit Doughnut Plant
Invalid Link Removed
Inquiring minds will want to know so from top left:
Coconut creme (legit coconut flavoured creme w/no flakes - 9.5/10)
Boston creme - 8.5/10
Coconut lime (very strong lime flav filling - 8/10)
PB & blackberry jam - 8.5/10
Cinnamon sugar - 7/10
Brooklyn blackout - 8/10
Vanilla bean - 7/10
Pecan praline - 7.5/10
White chocolate - (needs to be done more! - 9.5/10)

Planned to go to Dough but went to dinner first and NYC being crazy on a Sat night soon realized I wasn't going to make it before close - depression set in so no dinner pics. I was at a Malaysian restaurant that was actually very good.

Tried to make up for the miss on Dough, futile attemp at Magnolia Bakery
Snickers cheesecake bar

Coconut caramel chip bar

Both were average. Also tried a red velvet cheesecake (no pic) that was really good. Verdict - if you go to Magnolia only get cheesecake lol

Btw, what are the chances that one of you basic bishes can get your hands on the new Kroger pumpkin cream cheese spread?

Saw someone raving about it on the tubes.

Here comes the Heat! I found a bakery (M&M bakery) fairly close to my Hotel that was rated a 5 (20+ reviews) so took a shot on it. I walked in and was blown away by the selection. Server was super friendly and answered all my questions, gave me a free pignoli biscotti while I chose too.
Cupcakes are the real deal - the cake part resembles the actual flavour, not just plain choc or vanilla. They all have filling which is the only way I'll mess with cupcakes.

Carrot cake, Samoa, s'mores & cannoli (all fantastic!)
Invalid Link Removed

Brownie truffles - a dense & fudgy brownie enrobed in chocolate
Invalid Link Removed

Lobster tail with cannoli creme (she gave me the option of reg creme or this)
Invalid Link Removed
LLN don't slack on this place bro - I tried to go back on Monday to get their s'mores brownie and more cupcakes but were closed :(

On a sugar rush I headed down to Rutgers to the R U Hungry food truck and grabbed a FAT Filipino - Philly cheesesteak + gyro meat + chicken fingers + mozzarella sticks + Freedom fries
Sorry there is too much freedom fries obscuring the other stuff in the pic...
Invalid Link Removed

I still need to upload more pics and will do that later today...
 
We continue to play catch up on my collection of pics. Vanilla and apricot jelly filled Berliners:

Invalid Link RemovedInvalid Link Removed

Decent, but will look for better ones: the dough was kind of dry, although the fillings were above average.

Have had better boston cream type filled donuts and sufganiyots in the states.

Feel your pain on the Berliners - burned too often...
 
I'm generally not a huge fan of Hostess, Little Debbie or any similar products, but I'll look for these.

I see that we're reverting back to old habits, so I'll do a double update today to keep the good vibes going.

Black Forest Cake Roll:

Invalid Link Removed

Picked it up around the time a fella came out with a similarly flavored protein. Chocolate flakes and cream were nice but the cake part was too dry...and I hate dry cakes. Macros were on point tho...like 900 cals for the whole thing.

uhhhh yeahhh! everyday except Mondays cos they are closed on Mondays. I know this because I tried to go back and had to settle for inferior options :(
 
Let's stay focused...after a hard swing & miss on Dough closing in NYC before I could get there, I found a work around option. A coffee shop near Rutgers gets daily deliveries of 4 flavours (Hibiscus, chocolate, Cafe Au Lait & dulce de leche). They were out of the dulce :(

The 4 are all yeast donuts, but Dough donuts are almost like like a hybrid between your typical yeast & cake donut. Yet they are light and really good! More depressed I missed the NYC shop
:(

Hibiscus - great fruity flavour
Invalid Link Removed
Chocolate ganache - nothing overwhelming here but Dough is quality so still great
Invalid Link Removed
Cafe Au Lait - the most popular among the four for good reason
Invalid Link Removed

Headed to a friends place to grab dinner and they had grabbed a dulce de leche earlier and treated me to half, warmed up - straight $$

Fok. These item finding quests can get annoying...can't remember how many times I checked dif supermarkets for the orange cream Captn Crunch...never found it.

...and I know that if I did, it would disappoint too...

Pumpkin spread salvation should be near tho as I assume TJ will bring out the Pumpkin Pie cookie butter again.
