Cranberry Orange Nut Bread Clif Bar


I was really excited to see that my grocery store started carrying the seasonal Clif bars, after seeing other bloggers with them for a couple weeks now, I was wondering whether or not my store would get them at all. The first one I decided to try was the Cranberry Orange Nut Bread, which I had pretty high hopes for. I love the tart taste of cranberry bread and was hoping to get the same taste in this bar. Unfortunately, this bar was pretty disappointing. There was a lot more orange flavor in it than I would have liked, and the cranberry taste was hardly noticeable. It wasn’t a “bad” tasting bar though, so if you’re a fan of orange flavored foods you’ll probably love it, just don’t buy it expecting it to resemble traditional cranberry bread.

Edy’s Limited Edition Pumpkin Ice Cream

If you’re the type of person who has a hard time controlling themselves around ice cream, stay far away from this one. Edy’s Slow-Churned Pumpkin ice cream has a great, creamy taste despite only having 100 calories per serving. The pumpkin is noticeable, but isn’t overpowering and doesn’t taste fake as you might expect a low-fat ice cream would. If you plan on buying this, be sure to check the label carefully if you want the 100-calorie version. There’s a “fun flavor” and a “slow churned” version of it, with the latter having 100 calories per serving and the former having 120. Go ahead and pick up this limited edition ice cream before they take it off the shelves.
