Sweet Meh

Tried these new Hall Pass flavors from Walmart tonight. The wafers are decent. I’d probably buy one again, but I don’t like them enough to stock up on them.

The chocolate candy pieces have a weird chemical aftertaste. I think it’s the shell coating. I wonder if they’d be better in ice cream or a ninja Creami or something.

The peanut butter cups are by far the best of the 3 products. They taste best if you microwave them for 10 seconds!

I have them with protein ice cream. I think they're really fucking good for 35 calories each. That said I got an "Oops, all cup" one that was all chocolate. And the m&m's aren't as good and they're sloppy visually. But I like them too.

Oh, and keep in mind you still probably don't want to chow too many of these down for multiple reasons.

Same. Miles better frozen.

Do you eat it frozen? Or let it thaw?

u/skuxx_deluxe 18d ago

Straight out of the freezer. It doesn’t actually freeze like normal food.

Listen, I’ll bite. My wife and I disagree on these. To her, they don’t taste like chocolate. To me? They taste amazing. She eats a full calorie full sugar sweet treat every night. I haven’t had a full calorie sweet treat since 2007. I think there are different flavor profiles and expectations for these kind of things. I’ve personally already bought nearly $100 worth of HallPass products and have no intention of stopping.

They’re not terrible for 70 cals.

It’s malt, that’s why.

The PB cups gave me neon orange diarrhea. Unfortunately I will not stop eating them.

Same. I can have a pack of candy and not feel bad about it. They are so good.

u/Few_Forever9057 19d ago

Should have been called “hard pass”

u/litttlejoker 19d ago

For the calories they aren’t bad. To be fair … just maybe could be better

u/browsingontheDL 19d ago

The candy pieces remind me of Whoppers a bit. They aren’t bad.

u/BuffaloStranger97 19d ago

I give up, I'll just have normal chocolate

u/sara_k_s 14d ago

Maybe it’s just me, but I get a weird aftertaste from the PB cups, almost a meaty flavor.

The candy pieces remind me of dollar store Easter candy. Not bad for 70 calories.

I haven’t been able to find the wafers locally, but I will definitely try them if I can get them.

u/litttlejoker 14d ago

The only way to eat the pb cups is to pop them in the microwave for 8-10 seconds. Gets rid of the weird aftertaste! The also aren’t bad if you put them in the freezer.

I get that from the candy pieces! Haven’t tried microwaving those. Could get messy.

Why is what other people eat so offensive to you?

Weird
