Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers. If you’ve tried any of the products, share your thoughts about them in the comments.

Steak 'n Shake Milkshakes

Waiting in line for Steak ‘n Shake Milkshakes? Now you can also wait for these Steak ‘n Shake Milkshakes to show up in your freezer aisle. (Spotted by L at Mariano’s.)

Kraft Nacho Supreme Macaroni & Cheese Cup

Why do I feel compelled to buy this, prepare it, and top it with crushed Nacho Cheese Doritos? (Spotted by Erin at Giant.)

IttiBitz Cotton Candy and Birthday Cake Ice Cream Sandwiches

I guess an ice cream sandwich with nothing but IttiBitz in the middle would be hard to eat. (Spotted by Jamie at Hornbacher’s.)

Prego Merlot Marinara, Sundried Tomato, and Florentine Spinach Italian Sauces

Look! More pasta sauces that pretty much all look alike. Even though I think Duncan Hines’ different colored velvet cake mixes are silly, there’s a part of me that wishes for a blue pasta sauce. (Spotted by Jamie at Hornbacher’s.)
