Jello Star Wars Jigglers Mold Kit

Jello Star Wars Jigglers Mold Kit

Perhaps the Black Cherry Jello would’ve been a more appropriate flavor to use for Darth’s head. Although I understand the red since that’s the color of Darth’s lightsaber. Also, I know. I know. This should’ve been posted yesterday. (Spotted by Tracy at Woodman’s Markets.)

Smucker's Fruit Fulls (Pom Berry with Chia, Tropical Fusion with Oats, and Strawberry Vanilla with Chia)

I wonder if these would make an adequate jelly replacement in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. (Spotted by Nathan at H-E-B.)

If you’re into frozen vegetable porn, here you go. (Spotted by Sara at Bi-Lo.)

Cole's Pretzel Sticks filled with Pub Cheese

I have to admit, the term “pub cheese” sounds like slang for dried up vomit outside of a bar. (Spotted by Carmen at Walmart.)

FAST FOOD NEWS: Popeyes Lemonade Icebox Pie

Popeyes Lemonade Icebox Pie

I think Popeyes has been wanting to make their new Lemonade Icebox Pie for a long time now. Actually, I KNOW Popeyes has been wanting to make this pie for a long time because the person running the Popeyes Pinterest account pinned a recipe for lemon icebox pie two years ago.

Okay. Okay. Maybe it’s just a weird coincidence.

Popeyes’ Lemonade Icebox Pie features a graham cracker crust, a sweet and tangy lemonade pie filling, and whipped cream rosettes on top. The dessert is available for a limited time at participating locations.

If you’ve tried it, let us know what you think of it in the comments.

FAST FOOD NEWS: 7-Eleven Mountain Dew Solar Flare Slurpee

7-Eleven Mountain Dew Solar Flare Slurpee

Last summer, 7-Eleven began offering Mountain Dew Solar Flare as an option at their fountains. The soda is described as a “Dew with a blast of tropical punch.” This summer, 7-Eleven is offering Mountain Dew Solar Flare in brain freeze-inducing Slurpee form.

Thanks to Impulsive Buy reader Hayden who sent in the photo above.

Over the years, there have been a number of Mountain Dew Slurpee flavors. The most recent flavors include the Mountain Dew Fruit Punch Kickstart Slurpee and the regional Mountain Dew Electric Charge Slurpee.

SPOTTED ON SHELVES: Hostess Limited Time Only Sea Salt Caramel Cup Cakes and Zingers

Hostess Limited Edition Sea Salt Caramel CupCakes and Zingers

Sea Salt Topping? That’s a weird name for sea salt. Why not just call it “sea salt”? Unless, it’s not sea salt, but a topping that’s sea salt-flavored. (Spotted by Scott at Walmart.)
