It’s been awhile since I had Funyuns. It’s also been awhile since I had fun. Chip Review munched through a bag and really liked it. (Spotted by Troy at Shell.)

There are also Buffalo Wing and Blue Cheese and Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders flavors of these chips. Since these appear to be available only in Canada, can one of our Canadian readers combine ketchup flavored potato chips with the Bacon Cheeseburger Sliders chips? (Spotted by Ben at Circle K in Canada.)
I could’ve sworn we covered this in a previous Spotted post because I remember talking about a round slice of bacon before, which is what it looks like it has. But we haven’t covered it. Or maybe it’s from my dreams. (Spotted by Blaire at Wegmans.)
I’m so confused. Is it bacon flavored barbecue sauce beer I’m supposed to drink? Or is it beer and bacon flavored barbecue sauce I’m supposed to put on ribs and chicken? (Spotted by Travis at Stop & Shop.)
I’m going to guess one of those all-natural ingredients is cinnamon. (Spotted by Blaire at Acme.)
Ugh. Even GNC has gotten into the liquid water enhancer game. I do not look forward to the day when any company can stick their logo on a generic liquid water enhancer so that they can give it away as swag at conventions and job fairs. (Spotted by Andrew at Harris Teeter.)

Purchased Price: $3.49
Size: 2 pack
Purchased at: Target
Rating: 3 out of 10
Pros: Filling. Great…if you’re desperate. Makes a decent hand warmer. Warms my innards. Low fat. Contains ingredients I can easily pronounce.
Cons: Provides just 2 grams of fiber (competing products offer 5 grams and fast food oatmeal offers at least 5 grams). Blueberry flavor is too mild. Pomegranate flavor is non-existent. End result after following microwaving instructions looks like I melted Grimace. Not a very good way to start one’s morning.

Suck it, spoons and the foil lids on Yoplait yogurt containers! (Spotted by Carly at Target.)

I like how the MiO Energy flavors have exciting names, while the MiO Fit flavors have names that no one put any thought into. (Spotted by Dubba at Walmart.)
