I love muffins. If I had no self control I'd have a giant muffin top at the moment. I think I originally fell in love with muffins when I tried those giant Costco muffins. You know which ones I'm talking about...those GIANT decadent, moist, dense muffins that come in packs of six for only $3.
But those aren't the muffins I'm really going to talk about in this blog. The muffin I am going to talk about is the four pack of Reduced Fat Blueberry Muffins that I got from Fresh and Easy. Man that chain really exploded in my city because there are now 7 stores out there that I know of just in my town.
Well, knowing how much I love baked goods, I chose to get their blueberry muffins, mostly because they were the freshest thing on the shelf.
So I ate it the moment I got home. Man they were so moist. I was licking my fingers the whole way through. That's how I eat a muffin. I noticed everyone eats their muffins differently. Some prefer forks, others spoons. Most like to just dive in and take a bite. I myself like to pick at them with my fingers. It just makes the experience more fun.
The first bite you get out of these you taste the orange zest that they through in. The cake part taste like plain white cake with a little bit of vanilla. What bothered me though was the giant hole in the center of my muffin. Yes, a hole filled with air and coated with sour blueberry filling. The same thing showed up on my second muffin too. I'm pretty sure it was just the blueberry filling that ate the middle of my muffin, but I want it back.
The muffin overall was fantastic. With 310 calories, 11 grams of fat, 48 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, and 4 grams of protein; this muffin makes a pretty decent snack or breakfast. I myself shared on and ate two, then saved the last for breakfast. But it ain't the best muffin on the block, nor is it worth $4. Go to Costco, cause their muffins have double the goodness, are double the size, and half the price.
