Review: QB's All Natural Crispy Treat Filled with Ice Cream

Recently, while browsing for some frozen snacks at a local Stop & Shop, I came across an interesting frozen treat called QB's, All Natural Crispy Treat Filled With Ice Cream. Immediately after spotting interesting photo on the box, I wanted to try them.

My $3.69 purchase was more of a greedy purchase. I liked what I saw, I saw what I 'thought' I would like, so I bought it.

QB's came in a standard package, with a photo of what one should expect out of QB's. Basically, a delicious looking rice crispy treat square with a perfected slice out of the side, displaying a chocolate ice cream middle.

I mean seriously, does it get any sweeter than that? Why hadn't I thought of this first!?

At any rate, the QB's looked delicious on the box, even though the box itself had a generic, cheap look to it. Most 'all natural' healthy foods come in odd generic like packages though.

When I got home, I actually opened the box before even putting the rest of my grocery's away. I wanted to try them immediately. What can I say, curiosity sparks greed.

Inside of the box are 4 neatly individually wrapped QB's. They looked similar to the boxes cover, only the rice crisps were chopped up a bit more than they would be in a normal rice crispy treat. After peeling off the package, immediately the crispy rice began to fall apart.

I was not expecting QB's to taste bad though, but they did. The rice crispy treat has a very sweet taste to it, and the crisped rice was stale and had a soggy old consistency to it.

I ended up rubbing most of the rice crisps off in order to taste the chocolate ice cream hidden within its depths.

The first thing I noted was that there is not as much ice cream in the middle as the box leads you to believe there is. The middle is a very small and thin rectangular blob of ice cream, that has a creamy Italian chocolate ice flavoring to it.

The ice cream is good, but very, very limited, and surely does not make up for the horrendous crispy rice shell.

Overall:
 
QB's were a waste of money. They should pull these from shelves and sell just the ice cream that they put in the middle of the QB's.
