Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme Cereal

Hey! You know what was a great cookies and creme cereal? Oreo O’s, which is still available, but only in South Korea. I have a feeling this Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme cereal will not come close, but I hope it does. (Spotted by Stefanie at Target.)

Vanilla Chex

“Vanilla” was how I described the following Chex varieties: Wheat, Corn, and Rice. I guess since there’s now a Vanilla Chex, I’m going to have to start calling them the “boring varieties.” (Spotted by Stefanie at Target.)

Honey Bunches of Oats Greek Mixed Berry

I predict Post will come out with a chocolatey version of their Honey Bunches of Oats Greek Cereal. Mark my words! (Spotted by Stefanie at Target.)

Kellogg's Raisin Bran Omega-3 from Flaxseed

To be honest, at a quick glance, the flaxseed on those bran flakes look like they’re roaches. Two scoops of things that kind of look like roaches with Kellogg’s Raisin Bran Omega-3 from Flaxseed! Two scoops! (Spotted by Stefanie at Target.)

Froot Loops Treasures

Argh! Shiver me timbers! Froot Loops Treasures! Cereal pieces wit’ strawberry flavored fillin’ inside! Oooh, band ‘o pirates everywhere gunna risk their lives fer that kind ‘o treasure! Ugh! It’s so hard to show sarcasm. (Spotted by Stefanie at Target.)

Totino's Limited Edition Mexican Style Party Pizza

There ain’t no party like a Limited Edition Totino’s Mexican Style Party Pizza Party cuz a Limited Edition Totino’s Mexican Style Party Pizza Party stops when the Limited Edition Totino’s Mexican Style Party Pizza Party runs out. (Spotted by Adam at Walmart.)

Nature Valley Soft-Baked Oatmeal Squares

Nature Valley making something other than granola? Have I been transported to another dimension where Nature Valley makes only oatmeal products and Quaker makes only granola products? (Spotted by Bobby at Woodman’s.)

Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Pomegranate Chicken

Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Plum Ginger Grain-Crusted Fish

Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Roasted Red Pepper Chicken

Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Honey Citrus Chicken

Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Pineapple Black Pepper Beef

If these Lean Cuisine entrees are honestly good, then does that mean Lean Cuisine’s other frozen entrees are liars? And if I stick them in the microwave for too long, will their pants catch on fire? (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Oikos Greey Yogurt Dips

I just learned oikos means family or house. Thank you, internet! (Spotted by Kelcey at Fresh Grocer.)

Smucker's Magic Shell Root Beer

Turn vanilla ice cream into a liquidless root beer float with Smucker’s Magic Shell Root Beer. Or if you miss the liquid, just wait with it for a few minutes in the summer sun. (Spotted by Eric at Winn Dixie.)

Smart Ones Pork Carnitas Fajitas

Tsssss. Tsssss. Tsssss. I’m just making the sizzling sounds these Smart Ones Pork Carnitas Fajitas probably won’t make. Or I’m licking my finger and touching myself with it to show how hot I am. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

Sweet Baby Ray's Cola-Q Barbecue Sauce

A barbecue sauce infused with cola flavor? That sounds awesome! I hope mountaineers slather them on ribs, shout “Rib-co-la!”, and then blow through a large Alphorn. (Spotted by Billy at Giant.)

Goldfish Puffs

Yay! Puffed fish that doesn’t contain the lethal poison called tetrodotoxin. (Spotted by Andy at Target.)

Annie’s Homegrown now makes full-size pizzas. Oh, they also make mac & cheese. I hope they follow Tony’s and make a mac & cheese-topped pizza. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

Ben & Jerry's Nutty Caramel Swirl

7-Eleven has an exclusive Ben & Jerry’s flavor called Nutty Caramel Swirl that has nougat ice cream with peanuts, fudge flakes, and a salty caramel swirl. Looks like the Snickers in the candy aisle at 7-Eleven have a good reason to snicker. Here’s On Second Scoop’s review. (Spotted by Marvo at 7-Eleven.)

Barefoot Contessa Frozen Meals 1

Barefoot Contessa Frozen Meals 2

If she’s going to offers meals to me, I guess I don’t need Ina Garten’s cookbooks anymore. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

Breyers Toppings

I can now use Breyers ice cream toppings to top Breyers ice cream. Oh wait. It’s not ice cream. What I should’ve said was, I can now use Breyers frozen dairy dessert toppings to top Breyers frozen dairy dessert. On Second Scoop has a review. (Spotted by Stephanie at Big Y.)

Limited Edition Strawberry Lemonade Gatorade

This Strawberry Lemonade Gatorade is a limited edition flavor, so if you want to dump it on a coach after winning the big game, you better win that big game soon because I don’t know how long it’s going to be around. (Spotted by Samuel at 7-Eleven.)

Rockstar Energy Water

The water in Rockstar Energy Water will quench my thirst and the 200 milligrams of caffeine per bottle will make me bounce off the walls, which will make me thirsty again. (Spotted by Marvo at 7-Eleven.)
