SPOTTED ON SHELVES (HOLIDAY EDITION) – 12/10/2012

Here are some interesting new and limited edition holiday products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers.

Rice Dream Rice Nog

Rice Nog! Thank you, Rice Dream! You truly are a dream because I can enjoy another non-dairy nog that’s not even close to tasting as good as egg nog. Now all I need is for a particular almond milk producing company to develop almond nog. Get. On. It. Almond Breeze! (Spotted by Audrey at Whole Foods.)

Limited Edition Frosting Creations

With these limited edition Duncan Hines Frosting Creations, I can make baked goods taste like other baked goods. So that means instead of doing the mixing and baking needed to make gingerbread cookies, I can now mix and bake a gingerbread cookie cake. That makes sense. (Spotted by Richard at Walmart.)

Ginger Snappish

Oh, Bigelow and their fun seasonal tea names, like Eggnogg’n and Ginger Snappish. When Bigelow expands their seasonal tea offerings, I hope they take a page out of the Duncan Hines playbook and make a hot beverage that tastes like another hot beverage. Perhaps a tea that tastes like hot chocolate called Hot Oh’cocoa. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

Peppermint Mocha Kahlua

Goodbye, peppermint schnapps! Hello, Limited Edition Peppermint Mocha Kahlúa to make my cheeks rosy and my Yuletide bright. (Spotted by Lauren at Safeway.)

Gingerbread Kahlua

If you ever build a gingerbread house with a pool or moat, you can fill it with Gingerbread Kahlúa. Or you can drink lots of Gingerbread Kahlúa while putting together a gingerbread house and end up with a pile of broken gingerbread house pieces. (Spotted by Linda at Nob Hill Foods.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES (INTERNATIONAL EDITION) – 12/7/2012

Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves in other countries by your fellow readers.

Mike Tyson Black Power Energy Drink

When I first heard about Mike Tyson’s facial tattoo, I wondered what purpose will it serve. Well, it appears there is a purpose. This can of Mike Tyson Black Power Energy Drink from Poland would’ve been significantly less badass if Iron Mike’s face didn’t have a tattoo. (Spotted by Lucy at Asda in the United Kingdom.)

Eggo Cinnamon Toast Minis

Cinnamon toast-flavoured waffles? Where’s the pain au chocolat-flavoured Eggo waffles in Canada? (Spotted by Darren at Calgary Coop in Canada.)

Special K Cracker Chips (Canada)

Since these are new to our neighbors up north, I should let them know, through personal experience, that eating an entire box does not equal to eating a bowl of Special K. Although in both cases you’ll still feel hungry after. (Spotted by Darren at Calgary Coop in Canada.)

Bugles New? (Canada)

Canadians haven’t experienced the greatness that is Bugles until now? All this time they haven’t been able to stick a Bugle on each fingertip, pretend to be a monster with sharp claws, and then chomp them off. They’ve been so deprived. (Spotted by Darren at Calgary Coop in Canada.)

Blueberry Ice Cream Oreo

These Blueberry Ice Cream Oreo Cookies aren’t new. They’ve been around for a few years, but it’s really interesting to see what flavors I will be searching for on eBay. (Spotted by a friend of TIB reader Lane in Taiwan.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES (HOLIDAY EDITION) – 12/5/2012

Here are some interesting new and limited edition holiday products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers.

Sugar and Cinnamon Mission Tortilla Chips

Sweet sugar and cinnamon, Batman! Mission’s Sweet Sugar & Cinnamon tortilla chips are back this season! By the way, isn’t putting “sweet” and “sugar” in its name a bit redundant? Junk Food Betty and Junk Food Guy have reviews. (Spotted by Linda at Nob Hill Foods.)

Jet-Puffed PeppermintMallow

Awww. These mini Jet-Puffed PeppermintMallows look like the result of what would happen if two of these went out for a lovely dinner, to the theater to watch an R-rated film with a couple hot lovemaking scenes, and then came home to make real sweet, sweet love. (Spotted by Kayla at Walmart.)

Limited Edition Toll House Cookies

Oh, Nestle Toll House! How I wish you had cookie products that didn’t need to be baked. (Spotted by Kenneth at Walmart and Target.)

Limited Edition Toll House Morsels

Although your chocolate morsels make a wonderful snack while I wait for your cookie dough products to bake. Baking Bites reviewed the Dark Chocolate & Mint variety. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Limited Edition Stacy's Pita Chips Simple Gingerbread

Limited Edition Stacy's Pita Simple Naked

Gingerbread is a common flavor this season and Stacy’s has been offering their Simply Gingerbread pita chips for a few years now. Spoil Your Dinner and Junk Food Guy have reviews. But it’s surprising to see the company also release a flavor that represents my Christmas tradition of spending it completely nude so I’m ready to try on any clothing I receive as gift. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES – 12/3/2012

Here are some new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers.

Extra Dessert Delight Lemon Square

The list of Extra Dessert Delights gum has just gotten longer. There’s root beer float, apple pie, strawberry shortcake, mint chocolate chip ice cream, key lime pie, rainbow sherbet, orange creme popsicle, and now lemon squares. I wonder what they’ll come up with next. I hope it’s brownies or baklava. (Spotted by Cortney at Shoppers Food Warehouse.)

Frozen Greek Yogurt

Speaking of baklava, this baklava Greek frozen yogurt would’ve never happened in 1800s because of the strife between Greece and the Ottoman Empire and because frozen yogurt hadn’t been invented yet. (Spotted by Melissa at Giant Food Stores.)

Jolly Rancher Gelatin Mix

Hey, college kids or 40-somethings who want to relive their youth, Jolly Rancher has watermelon and green apple gelatin for you to make Jolly Rancher Jello shots with. Although, Jolly Rancher would probably want you to call them Jolly Rancher gelatin shots because their gelatin is not under the Jello brand. But that probably won’t happen because Jello has pretty much replaced gelatin in our vernacular, much like Kleenex has replaced facial tissues. (Spotted by Nadirah at Walmart.)

Blue Bell Rum Raisin

“Welcome to the rum raisin ice cream party, Blue Bell,” said Häagen-Dazs with sarcasm. (Spotted by Kenneth at Target.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES (HOLIDAY EDITION) – 11/30/2012

Here are some new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers.

Pepperidge Farm Snickerdoodle

Holy moly, Pepperidge Farm! Only now you’re coming out with a snickerdoodle. That’s super-duper, but it looks like someone’s been dilly-dallying. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Yoplait Apple Crisp Yogurt

I have to admit, staring at this picture of Yoplait Apple Crisp yogurt is making me crave so hard for some apple crisp dessert. Heck, I’m so desperate for some apple crisp in my mouth that I’ll settle for Yoplait Apple Crisp yogurt. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Nestle Coffeemate Pecan Praline

Do you like adding a bit of creamy Coffee-mate holiday spirit to your coffee, but are tired of their Pumpkin Spice, Peppermint Mocha, and Warm Cinnamon Sugar Cookie flavors? Well, my caffeinated friend, you now can make your crappy office coffee taste like pecan pralines. Merry Christmas! (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Little Debbiee Santa Brownies

Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes

Brownies that looks like Santa and cakes that look like Christmas trees? All Little Debbie needs to make now are cookies that look like iPads so that one could make a holiday diorama with a Santa Brownie putting a iPad cookie under a Christmas Tree Cake. (Santa Brownies spotted by Kenneth at Target. Christmas Tree Cakes spotted by Dan at Giant.)

Lindt Double Milk

That teddy bear is totally hardcore! Instead of getting a “Thug Life” tattoo on its belly it got a Lindt tattoo. LYNDT4LYFE! (Spotted by Kenneth at Walgreens.)
