And by ‘releasing’ I mean, ‘they’ve been available for 2 years but I wasn’t aware of them until I saw a targeted ad on Facebook so I thought they were brand new.’ Tomato, tomahto.
Anyhow, these look like trash and I know exactly why: They’re only baking the tops:
You’ve got to make the WHOLE muffin, then, pop the top, toss the stump!
Side note: I’m not a muffin guy. If you like muffins, that’s fine, but they’re not for me. If I’m going to eat something sweet for breakfast with little to no nutritional value, I’m going donut 100 times out of 100. Over the years, muffins somehow got the reputation as being a healthier not-healthy option if you want to indulge for breakfast. Maybe because they don’t have frosting? Or aren’t filled with custard or jelly? Well the facts are that muffins are actually WORSE for you than donuts when you compare sugar/carbs/calories*/etc. Muffins have been masquerading as something they’re not for DECADES. Not on my watch. Why settle for something that tastes worse and is actually worse for you? Give me the cream filled Long John every day of the week.
*I think the word ‘calorie’ needs a rebrand. It’s gotten a bad reputation. ‘That muffin has 780 calories, YEESH.’ Well what if we started calling calories, ‘flavor points’? It’s been my experience that the more calories something has, the better it tastes. Hence, flavor points. ‘How many flavor points in that banana nut muffin?’ ‘810.’ ‘Awesome!’ Just one of my many ideas.
