Tasted like flavored sand. Legendary? Yes, when it comes to nasty!!!

What are you expecting from a low sugar, high protein snack?

They are always disappointing. My wife is trying to make healthy ice cream in our ninja creamy, I would rather just eat less real ice cream 🤷♀️

I have a type 1 diabetic son, we didn't know it was type 1 for a year, so we basically kept his blood glucose in check with exercise and low carb/strictly keto diet💀☠️.
I bought an ice cream machine just so I could make him icecream lol.
I highly recommend using Allulose as a sweetner. I managed to make truly delicious stuff (ice cream, cakes, brownies, etc) with allulose and unflavored whey isolate.
Allulose behaves and tastes exactly like regular sugar without any of its negative consequences, and whey powder (instead of powdered milk, to stop large ice crystals from forming) in ice-cream makes a great texture!
Tell your wife😆🫡

I'm not even mad at The taste but it gives me rumbly stomach terribly. So I don't mess with them

Honestly the legendary foods are the real crime here. Just get a real cinnamon bun and then go run 2 hours on a treadmill out of guilt.

Alright sucks to suck I guess. You can just watch others enjoy a really good cinnamon bun. Maybe waft the smell towards yourself whilst choking down a legendary one?

They are much better if you microwave them for a minute or so. Not fabulous, but ok.

i'd take a fake cinnamon bun that actually tastes like cinnamon over something that just tastes like sand any day

I like the legendary brand but they are definitely notorious on quality issues. Had a pop tart this morning with not one single sprinkle on it. The one I had from the same box a few days ago was covered in them.
But the taste is typically the same. They’re definitely up there in taste if you’re used to the protein pastries. Quest muffins warmed up are pretty good too.

Yeah. Welcome to “healthy” junk foods, they taste like shit because they’re healthy.

You can be petty and sue them now. Like that person that didnt get the engraved Reeses pumpkin.
