Russell Stover Big Bite (Hot Cocoa, Cappuccino, and House Blend Coffee)

When you’re looking at these in the store while standing in several layers of clothes to keep you warm. I want you to say in a sarcastic tone, “Thanks, Russell Stover!” (Spotted by Sarah at Walgreens.)

California Pizza Kitchen Limited Edition California Kale with Sausage Pizza

California Pizza Kitchen California Kale with Sausage on California Thin Crust. Oh, it doesn’t say that? Well it should. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

Cascadian Farm To-Go Pouches (Oats and Honey and Fruit and Nut)

Are these pouches are big enough that I can pour milk into them and eat out of them? (Spotted by Nick at Target.)

Betty Crocker Mashed Potatoes & Chicken Gravy and Mashed Potatoes & Brown Gravy

I can understand not providing milk and butter because of refrigeration. But frickin’ salt? That’s a crock, Betty Crocker! Okay, not really. We all have salt in our kitchen, so it’s not an inconvenience. I just wanted to type, “That’s a crock, Betty Crocker!” (Spotted by Dan at Woodman’s Markets.)

COMING SOON: Mountain Dew Dew Shine

Mountain Dew Dew Shine

Update: We reviewed it! Click here to read our Dew Shine review.

In 2012, Mountain Dew introduced Johnson City Gold, an alcohol-sounding, non-alcoholic beverage. It was a malt and citrus soda that was released in a handful of regions across the country, but didn’t see a nationwide rollout.

Now it appears Mountain Dew is set to release another alcohol-sounding, non-alcoholic beverage — Mountain Dew Dew Shine. Also, much like Johnson City Gold, which paid homage to the birthplace of Mountain Dew soda, Dew Shine seems to honor the origins of Mountain Dew’s name. For those of you not familiar with alcohol slang, Mountain Dew was originally slang for moonshine.

According to the label, Dew Shine has a “clear citrus Dew flavor” and is made with real sugar. The label also features Willie the Hillbilly, the original Mountain Dew mascot, and “It’ll Tickle Yore Innards”, the original Mountain Dew slogan. The blog MtnDewKid was fortunate enough to receive samples and has a review of the beverage.

Mountain Dew Dew Shine is expected to be available in late March.

COMING SOON: Mountain Dew Sangrita Blast

Mountain Dew Sangrita Blast

Remember how long it took for the Taco Bell exclusive flavor, Mountain Dew Baja Blast, to make its way into bottles and cans? It took years. Well, the other Taco Bell exclusive flavor, Sangrita Blast, which was introduced in 2013, has ended up in bottles much quicker.

Sangrita Blast, according to the bottle, is a “Dew with a blast of natural and artificial citrus punch flavor.”

The photo above was posted on calipepsi’s Instagram, which is the account for the Sunnyvale Pepsi bottler. According to the photo’s comments, it’ll be released in a couple of months.

(Thanks to TIB reader Hayden for showing us the glorious news.)
