Default Anyone tried VitaBrownies?

VitaBrownies are pretty danged good if ya ask me.

100 calories of chocolate goodness. The muffins are good, too. Just trying to do my part to product test before I come online and let y'all know about them.

A word of advice tho...I found the in the frozen foods health food section. This was the second store I tried, lemme tell ya, it is NOT a good idea wandering thru the baked goods section when you are jonesing for chocolate. I survived, but I'm not sure I would have pulled it off if I hadn't found them when I did.

Oh and one more word to the wise. They have a bit of fiber...so....ummm...you might not want to eat three in one night.


Unless maybe you need to "knock things loose"

I have heard other people say great things about both the brownies and the muffins. I personally need to stay away from all baked goods, otherwise I have horrible cravings!!
I made those brownies with the blackbeans... and they weren't bad, it was the cravings and binging afterwards that caused problems!!! Why does this happen? Why couldn't I stop at the low fat/high fiber version?!?

I'm the same way. I can't snack on healthy versions of brownies and muffins or I'll crave them ALL the time. I have to stay away from that kind of stuff completely. I loved the vitamuffins when I tried them though.

I looked on the vitatops website to find a store in my area that sells them. Randalls is supposed to but I scoured that store and could not find them. Maybe one day if I get to Houston I'll check out a gigantic grocery store.

The VitaBrownies weren't really to my taste-they just seem a bit off, when compared to the Deep Chocolate VitaMuffins or VitaMuffintops, which I find delicious!

I love all of the Vitalicious stuff! I recently ordered the corn muffin tops for when we have cornbread with meals, so that I can have those instead. Even though it's 90 degrees I'm tempted to make chili so that I can try them! My freezer looks like I could sell the stuff at the moment, I have three varieties of tops and 3 boxes of brownies in there, lol.

I know, my freezer looks the same way - it looks kind of nutty! It's loaded with chocolate muffins and muffintops (I like the muffins for breakfast and my teenage son eats a top for an afterschool snack, instead of cookies).
I haven't tried the corn ones yet; tell me how they are once you try them. You could make ratatouille with all the summer squash that's available now and have the corn muffins with that!!

I tried these and love them, too! Anyone else have a tendency to go on kicks where you order a bunch of healthy food on line, just to try it out? I've done it a few times now, and luckily I've been happy with the finds: Vitalicious, Pizza Fit 'n Free, Gnu Bars... good stuff!

I can definitely vouch for Vitalicious, as they tend to taste pretty good.
