Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers.

Why would someone want a snack that tastes like snickerdoodles? If one wants a snack that tastes like the cookie, wouldn’t real snickerdoodle cookies be that snack? (Spotted by Stephanie at Sheetz.)

There are two new Planters dry roasted peanut flavors. Thank goodness. If I had to eat one more honey roasted or Five Alarm Chili peanut, I was gonna choke a legume. (Spotted by @jgotelli at Target.)

“New and Delicious”? With flavors like Butternut Squash Bisque and Creamy Gouda Bisque, shouldn’t it say, “New, Delicious, Fancy Nancy, and Makes Our Condensed Soup Look Less Appetizing”? (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

I wanted to put a risqué paragraph here. Actually, I did type one and it was super filthy…and lengthy. 50 Shades of Grey-lenghty, but with even poorer writing. (Spotted by Charmi at Target.)

Golden Grain is trying to be as sneaky as the cafeteria ladies who snuck a serving of vegetables into my school lunches or as sneaky as the swap meet vendor who says the $100 Coach bag they’re selling is authentic. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

I wish these Keebler Filled Pretzel Bites were filled with elf magic..or gold. Because with the elf magic I would’ve made gold. (Spotted by Stephen at Giant.)

I don’t have a marketing degree, but I think Flavor Doubles is a boring name. Perhaps Snyder’s of Hanover should’ve named it Awesome Two Tastes Happy Happy Mouth Time. Once again, I do not have a marketing degree. (Spotted by Leah at Wegmans.)

Which is more effective? Mr. Peanut pushing Planters NUTrition Sustaining Energy Mix or a douchebag promoting 5 Hour Energy. Sorry, Mr. Peanut, I think the douchebag wins because to defeat the douchebag, I must be the douchbag. (Spotted by Charmi at Target.)

I bet Häagen-Dazs’ Bourbon Pecan Praline ice cream will make nut-loving alcoholics happy. What? There isn’t any alcohol in it. Well then, it’ll make nut-loving alcoholics angry. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

If Dr Pepper Ten is not for women, then for the Dr Pepper Snapple Group’s sake 7Up Ten, A&W Ten, and Sunkist Ten better all be for women. Because I’m sure Dr Pepper Snapple Group doesn’t want to sleep on the couch again. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

If you ever play Morbid Trivial Pursuit (all the wedges are black), knowing Orville Redenbacher died while in a Jacuzzi might be helpful. You’re welcome. Besides the two flavors shown above, Orville Redenbacher’s Pop Crunch comes in two other flavors — Cheddar & Caramel Mix and Parmesan Herb Mix. (Spotted by Jamie at Target.)

Have you ever thought to yourself while eating carrot cake, “Hey, someone should make cookies that taste like carrot cake.” If so, Pepperidge Farm might have been reading your brain’s ridges. Junk Food Guy has a review. (Spotted by Jaclyn at Target.)

Celebrating Oreo’s 101st birthday by eating Birthday Cake Golden Oreos. Or, perhaps, add more birthdays to your life by not eating any Oreos. (Spotted by Stephen at Giant.)

After years of offering cereal bars, Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain now makes granola bars. But that space is dominated by Nature Valley, Quaker, and Kashi, so I’m sure Quaker isn’t quaking in their boots, Nature Valley isn’t retreating into a valley, and Kashi isn’t giving a Kashit. (Spotted by Charmi at Target.)

Here on this tropical rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, tropical blends are just called blends. (Spotted by Justin at Walmart.)

With flavors like Cheesy Garlic, Meatball Marinara, and Chicken Parmesan, I guess these Totino’s Pizzeria Rolls are a step above their regular Pizza Rolls. I hope Totino’s one day takes it up another step and makes Totino’s Ristorante Italiano Rolls with flavors like Chicken Alla Pomodori, Lasagna, and Chicken Marsala. (Spotted by Justin at Walmart.)

Sour Cream & Onion Doritos are back again. Or maybe they never left after being available early last year. Or maybe I used a time machine to travel back to the 1980s, took a picture of these chips at a store that no longer exists, traveled to the present day, and did an awesome Photoshop job with the “Limited Edition” banner in the upper corner. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

Rockstar Energy now has even more ways to fill you with insane amounts of caffeine, taurine, ginseng, and B vitamins. Here’s a Rockstar Recovery Tea/Lemonade review and a Rockstar SuperSours review. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

It’s like a giant ketchup packet I don’t have to open with my teeth. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

I’ve lost count, but it feels like Kashi has 700 ways to get their 7 Whole Grains into my digestive system. (Spotted by Adam at Weis Markets.)

Awesome! My hair can smell like my dad did in the 1980s! (Spotted by Raymond at Target.)
