    Pringles Sticks

    Has anyone else tried these? I really like the vanilla. They only have 80 calories, 3g sugar, and the ingredients list is not too terrible. I eat a pack at night for my whatever snack along with a few chocolate chips and I'm satisfied. They also make honey butter (too salty for me), wheat...

    Okay everyone...what is the best overall protein powder you have tried? That includes amount of protein per serving, taste, cost, nutrition, etc. I have only tried Nutiva Hemp (awful taste, but love that it's natural) and I don't want to stick to just one type/brand. Thanks for the input! :-)
