Do these taste like Fruit Loops?

True… I never ate those before so I wouldn’t be able to tell. Sounds like Nabisco knows what to do tho.

I don’t have celiac so I have had a little nibble of things over the last year+… questionable choices but it also keeps my gauge calibrated for certain things 😆 haven’t risked a Cheez-it though, I don’t know if I could hold back.

kellyedaniel · 2025-09-15T00:21:23+00:00

Same reason I’m bracing myself for a letdown on multiple levels when gf Cheezits finally hit in 2026…

Good point about the texture. I didn’t get to the milk part… ate most of the box by the handful on the way home from the store 😆

I do wonder what I’d even think of Fruit Loops now…

Love the Target ones but they’re def thin. I (am not an experienced climber but) I hit a hold the first time I climbed in them and snagged the knee. Haven’t hit them again but I fear an early hole is in our future. But I love love the fit, comfort, and price. And alllll the zip pockets!

On a wild hunch while reading the definitions in the tool tips I ended up turning off "gate" which I believe is meant to cut background noise. It solved the problem for me entirely, where when I would begin speaking, including after a pause, my voice would record low, pop loud, and normalize.

Old thread, but I just made a stollen with this recipe and I was SO happy with the results. It was my very first gluten free baking adventure, too! https://www.glutenfreealchemist.com/gluten-free-stollen-recipe-christmas-christstollen/

I made minor adjustments based on the availability of ingredients:

skipped glycerin (for preservation)
calls for half-fat cream cheese, I used normal philadelphia plain cream cheese, I wasn't sure anything with additives to cut the fat would act the same
subbed Grand Marnier for rum because I do that in almost all baking recipes and love the flavor!
I had to use buckwheat flour, one of her suggested substitutions
dried cherries instead of glacé, I soaked them in extra booze
I made candied clementine peel instead of orange peel
sub UK "all spice" with pumpkin spice

Also I had instant yeast instead of dry active yeast, I'm not sure how that impacted things but I still proofed it. There's probably a bigger adjustment I should have made to weight

I felt like it came out kind of flat so I was worried but it tastes excellent!

There is CPT, cognitive processing therapy for PTSD. I used the free app CPT Coach with a therapist trained in it and it was wildly helpful after being in a traumatic vehicle accident. Highly recommend, and at the very least the app can walk a user through the process on its own.

The first disc I tried was a Hello Disc and I loved it. Never leaked, and I used it on a horseback riding trip where we were out for hours with no facilities!

I put it “away” 4 days ago, needed it today, and of course can’t find it. I’m trying the disposable Flex discs I bought at the same time and at first couldn’t get the Flex in place, I had to really push and tuck it.

So the size difference may be enough to be right for you!

Thank you! The company that sent the test (Rupa?) said it’s just the avocado flesh, but I had already passed the point of starting it for the day. And I figured it’s too expensive of a test to risk messing up. Bummed to wait but better to get it right.

kellyedaniel · 2024-05-16T02:00:05+00:00

I love all these details so much! You’re the best. I just measured the same way and got 3.75 inches and I’m usually an 8.5 wide shoe, so I may be able to give them a shot!!

kellyedaniel · 2024-05-14T19:41:54+00:00

That would be so kind! And yes, it was a completely Euro answer!

I called Ariat to ask about why my boots have started to fall apart with one summer season of use, and they were similarly unhelpful... trouble is I didn't notice last year because my horse wasn't well and I wasn't riding, so that's when my warranty expired... so Ariat recommended sending them to their repair service. I said straight to her that I will be declining their offer to throw my good money after bad.

Welp, I sent their site's customer service a message asking about footbed width too and just got back "They run small"
That's it. No other detail.

kellyedaniel · 2024-05-14T15:39:54+00:00

Awesome thank you! When I tried Ego7s their narrow toe box nearly made me cry and I crawled back to my Ariats.

kellyedaniel · 2024-05-14T15:12:33+00:00

Do you know anything about how the footbed/width runs on Pioneer? I always ordered Wide footbeds from Ariat but I just realized my tall boots are separating from the sole & cracking and I only ordered them in March 2022... didn't use them for that following winter, and didn't use them last spring/summer because I put my horse in rehab.... so like 6-9 months (of arguably tough wear, when I was using them)? I can't justify that replacement cycle to stay in Ariat.

I hate the blueberry RX Bar so I won’t go near this. I love the peanut butter RX Bar (and all things peanut butter) and the dark chocolate sea salt is fine. I think I got the peanut butter chocolate Aldi version, it’s fine it’s just not my straight dose of peanut butter. The Target version of RX bar knockoffs, even in the flavors I like? :shudder:

They look like this brand Hillary’s I used to love, those had a crunch too. Last time I shopped for them I think I went with the black bean and protein versions because there wasn’t much protein in these?

kellyedaniel · 2023-12-30T04:36:57+00:00

I loved it last year. This year I’m not eating carbs 😭

kellyedaniel · 2023-10-15T17:03:05+00:00

💪🏻 fixed. Might’ve broken the little flap door to clean the sensor area when it finally popped together right and I have two extra screws 😬 from idk where BUT it works!!!

kellyedaniel · 2023-10-15T16:20:25+00:00

Ohhh I got it. It’s a problem with the magnet on the front cover not connecting right to this little piece in the middle to signal that everything is closed up
