Why would one ruin Cheez-Its with M&M’s? Why would one ruin M&M’s with Cheez-Its? (Spotted by Chris B at ShopRite.)
Thank you, Fla-Vor-Ice. Without you, and dozens of other products with movie tie-ins, I wouldn’t know what movies are coming out. Okay, that’s a lie. I know what movies are coming out because my friends post the trailers on Facebook. (Spotted by Robbie at H-E-B.)
That’s right, plastic bottle. America. (Spotted by Breanna at Walmart.)
Would someone like to buy both of these and eat them at the same time? I want to know how hot and sour they’d be together. (Spotted by Breanna at Walmart.)
“Chia” is one of my favorite words to say. It’s also fun to say backwards. Aihc. (Spotted by Rachel C at Walmart.)
I know. I know. Five of you sent in photos for JC’s Nudies recently. They’re new to your area, but they’re not new new. But, according to JC’s, this flavor is new. Well, actually, it was announced with the other flavors, but it was released later. (Spotted by Elizabeth L at Stop & Shop.)

Starbucks’ new Honey Caramelized Honey Latte was created with the moody nature of the spring season in mind. Sometimes it’s cold, wet, and the sun is being antisocial by hiding behind clouds. When there are days like that, you can get a hot Caramelized Honey Latte. And sometimes it’s hot, sunny, and you wish the sun would turn it down a bit. For those days, you can get the beverage in iced or Frappuccino form.
What makes these beverages special is the caramel honey sauce that’s been slow-cooked for 45 minutes, which is 12 hours and 15 minutes less than the last fast food product that shared how long it was cooked for. All three versions feature the slow-cooked sauce, Starbucks’ espresso, and milk. The Frappuccino is also topped with whipped cream and honey sugar sprinkles.
A grande Caramelized Honey Latte with 2% has 340 calories, 12 grams of fat, 8 grams of saturated fat, 45 grams of sugar, 12 grams of protein, and 150 milligrams of caffeine. A tall Caramelized Honey Frappuccino with whole milk and whipped cream has 300 calories, 12 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 45 grams of sugar, 3 grams of protein, and 65 milligrams of caffeine.
If you’ve tried any of the caramelized honey beverages, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
