Everyone's tatstes are different, of course, but I'm wondering what your most favorite and least favorite IP packs are. I haven't tried everything yet, but so far:
Most favorite: Strawberry wafers
Cappuchino
Chocolate drink
Chicken Noodle Soup
Chicken patty (if I had to pick one fave, this would be it! So good!
Least favorite: Crispy cereal (had to choke it down, ugh!)
Chocolate Chip cookie (didn't do it for me)
Msuhroom soup (although I could see it being useful in cooking)
I've switched to alternatives but on IP
Favorite: Hot Chocolate drink except cold & Jello
Least Favorite: Crispy cereal, tomato basil soup & banana pudding (tasted like strep throat medicine)
Only been on IP a week but of what I've tried so far:
Favorite: Raspberry Jelly (jello), Mango Peach drink, premade chocolate drink blended with ice
Least Favorite: tomato basil soup (didn't finish despite all the veggies and stuff I added, I just couldn't eat it), oatmeal and crispy cereal: both I choked down with cinnamon on top
I love, so far, jello, puddings (not the strawberry though), chocolate drink (RTD and regular) and chicken pottage. Of course, I love the restricted bars and apple-cinnamon puffs, and the southwest cheese thingies, but I try to not have restricted items all that much.
Dislikes: Mushroom soup, not a huge fan for the chicken patty but I might have made it weird.
My favorites are the Dark chocolate pudding (made with 4 oz of water so has more of mousse consistency), Peanut crunch bar, and Potato purée (my mashed potatoes).
I hate the tomato anything....., oatmeal, crispy cereal.
Like oatmeal - easy to fix for breakfast (add cinnamon and unsweetened cocoa)
Like mushroom and broccoli soups - easy to add vegetables for quick meal
Only pudding I like is chocolate
Favorite IP packets: IP vanilla drink ( froths up in coffee!), dark chocolate pudding
Favorite restricted: Proti caramel/peanut soy puffs mixed together with IP choco soy puffs ; Quest bar chocolate chip cookie dough, Proti chocolate wafer
Favorite packet recipe: Rainbow's cheesecake bites made with cheesecake pudding and chocolate soy puff crust, yum yum!
Edible:
Chicken patty
Pottage (somewhere between great and edible)
Chili (this is slightly better than the pottage to me, just not a favorite)
Inedible:
Fine Herb Omelet (I started out liking this, but it got old on the third try. Grilling green pepper and mushrooms and folding into the plain omelet is much better. Could eat if I had to)
Tomato soup (and I love tomato soup/bisque! Hands down the worst thing on IP that I have tried is it the texture or aftertaste? Either way, this is curing me of overeating! LOL)
Soy patty gets dis-honorable mention (not inedible really, but not something I would intentionally eat again)
I love making a chocolate bread with the choc drink mix and vanilla pudding.
I also make a lemon strawberry bread using van drink mix, lemon pudding mix and WF strawberry jam... So yum with tea or coffee!

every morning i make myself the vanilla pudding with extra water and then add coffee. Soo good better than cappuccino!
So far the only things i will refuse to ever get again are the banana pudding and the chocolate chip cookie.
But everyones taste buds are different. And i havent tried the soups yet, kind of nervous to do so, so i just keep ordering the puddings and drinks. Maybe this weekend ill be adventerous. Lol

so funny, I feel that way about the puddings! I'm afraid of them, I just know the texture is going to be all wrong and thick creamy things kind of gross me out anyway.
How could I have forgotten the tomato-basil soup? Hideous! Right up there with the cereal.
