SPOTTED ON SHELVES – Mountain Dew Kickstart Limeade

Mountain Dew Kickstart Energizing Limeade

Another Mountain Dew Kickstart flavor?! Actually, there’s two new varieties. Besides this Limeade, there’s also Mountain Dew Kickstart Black Cherry. To be honest, I thought Mountain Dew Kickstart would’ve been discontinued by now. (Spotted by Logan at Walmart.)

QUICK REVIEW: Jack in the Box Sweet Potato Fries

/ / Reviews / 1 Comment

Jack in the Box Sweet Potato Fries

Purchased Price: $2.49
Size: N/A
Purchased at: Jack in the Box
Rating: 5 out of 10
Pros: Exterior remained crispy after the five minute drive home. Crisscut fries are a nice change of pace if you’re tired of plain old straight fries. A serving provides four grams of fiber. Probably a good source of beta-carotene. Can get it with a combo (but there’s an upcharge).
Cons: Sweet potato flavor is a bit too mild for my liking. Not very salty or sweet. Available in only one size (comes in sleeve for regular large fries). When you pour them out of the sleeve, it doesn’t look like much..

INTERNATIONAL SPOTTED ON SHELVES – Lay’s Pops Crispy Bacon & Cheese Flavour and Paprika (Netherlands)

Lay's Pops Crispy Bacon & Cheese Flavour (Netherlands)

Lay's Pops Paprika (Netherlands)

The U.S. has these except they’re called Air Pops and come in three flavors: original, barbecue, and sour cream & onion. The sender of these photos tell me paprika is a common chip flavor in the Netherlands. So I guess paprika is their barbecue. (Spotted by Anna at Albert Heijn in the Netherlands.)

Starbucks VIA Latte

Starbucks VIA Latte comes in two flavors: Caffe Mocha and Vaniila Latte. Interesting, but how am I supposed to make horrible unrecognizable latte art with this? (Spotted by Sylvia at Starbucks.)

Kellogg's Birthday Edition! Flavor Flashback! Frosted Chocolate Vanilla Creme Pop-Tarts

Flavor Flashback? I have to admit I don’t remember this flavor ever existing. Or maybe I just got it confused with the other chocolate and vanilla Pop-Tarts that have been released. Also, if it’s Pop-Tarts’ 50th birthday, should we be expecting birthday cake-flavored Pop-Tarts soon? (Spotted by Meral at Walmart.)
