My favorite in the morning is the omelet but as scramble eggs, and my favorite snack is the chocolate drink, or the strawberry shake I make with the yogurt converted into the most delicious shake, with some walden farms stawberry Jelly , yumii!!. My new favorites are the bars, specially the cinamon one. These foods are all great! I never though diet foods could be so tasty until I found IP, Lucky me.
my tastes seem to change week by week... this week it is the chocolate drink and the pina colada... however, last week was all about chocolate pudding...!
I love all the creamy ones - chocolate pudding with a little salt sprinkled on top, the chocolate shake, pina colada and cappuccino. I actually also like the mushroom soup but always doctor it with hot sauce, some salt and other spices.
I'm learning to like the mango and pomegranate shakes but ONLY when I double the water. I think they are best when they are ice cold with 16 oz of water.
On a whole I like most of the IP stuff and ADORE the bars (which I'm not eating since I'd rather lose weight fast). You can tell that they are developed in France, a country that cares about food...
Blueberry pomegranate cranberry drink has definitely grown on me and I like the caramel nut bars, but I only allow myself to have one a couple of times a week.
Chili is good if I can remember to let is soak in the water 3-4 hours before I want to eat it. The mushroom soup is also good.
There's not much I really won't eat, it's just given a choice I will chose certain foods.
I'm solely living off of the chocolate pudding (as shakes) and chocolate RTDs. I was just introduced to the vanilla RTDs so I guess I'll be adding that to the menu.
I like the omelet made with Mrs. Dash onion & herb or Mrs. Dash garlic & herb and Herb De Province with a tsp. of low carb ketchup. My very favorite is chocolate pudding made into a shake with 2 tbsp of WF choco. syrup; today I added a couple of drops of almond extract and coconut extract--tasted like an Almond Joy bar .. YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!!

I have tried almost everything, but the one thing that has gotten me through my bad sugar/chocolate cravings this week as been the chocolate drink, heated and I have it before bed. It has become a bit of a comfort food for me... :-)
I really like the chocolate drink, ready made chocolate and vanilla drinks, Wild berry yogurt drink, cappuccino, the oatmeal as a crumble on rhubarb, pina-colada and the caramel nut bars. I almost forgot I like the garlic and onion soy nuts too. I tolerate the rasp/pom drink, and I have the vanilla and strawberry puddings also, but they aren't my faves. When I first started the diet I lived solely on the wild berry yogurt, cappuccino, and chocolate ready made drinks.
Funny how different everyone's tastes are. I hate most of the drinks although I can drink the chocolate ones as long as I refrigerate it for at least an hour after I mix it or have ice cubes. It has to be REALLY cold. I LOVE the ready made chocolate pudding but it has been on back order for a while. I don't like the packaged ones as much but they are doing the trick for now. I actually prefer the butterscotch. My absolute favourite is the raspberry jello. I have it every night as my snack. I LOVE chocolate so any bar that has chocolate in it is great. The BBQ soy nuts are also a fave of mine. Absolutely HATED the chocolate pancake, I'm sure I must have made it wrong.
I grill mushrooms first and then add them to the omelet. I love it and could eat it 3 times a day. I totally agree with earlier posts about the chocolate pudding/drink as long as it is cold.
I eat an omelet every day, sometimes for lunch, sometimes for breakfast. And sometimes, I eat one for breakfast AND one for lunch! Hot sauce is a must, and I rotate between Cholula, Tapatio, Tabasco, and Franks.
