If I remember correctly, when Dr Pepper Dark Berry made its debut a few years ago, it also promoted a movie. With a name like Dark Berry, I’m pretty sure it was a Batman movie. ::Checks Google:: Nope. I’m wrong. A Spiderman movie. Dr Pepper Dark Berry is also available in cans and there’s a zero sugar version. (Spotted by @nickinpgh at Kuhn’s Market.)
Remember when naming your product “Firework” meant something? It would sure be neat if this cereal could snap, crackle, and pop, but it doesn’t look like it does. (Spotted by Robbie at Sam’s Club.)
Mtn Dew has a new store-exclusive flavor — Purple Thunder. It follows the still-Dollar-General-exclusive Maui Burst and the one-time Speedway-exclusive Spark (which was available at other retailers earlier this year). Purple Thunder is a Dew with a blast of berry plum. When I look at its purple color, I can’t help but dream of Mtn Dew Pitch Black. Yes, yes, yes, the beloved grape-flavored Dew was much darker. But I see purple, and Pitch Black is all I can think of. Anyhoo, Purple Thunder is rolling out to Circle K stores now. It’s available in 20-ounce bottles and on Polar Pop fountains. (Thanks to Mountain Dew and Circle K for the samples and info.)
These have 30 ounces of goodness in them, so it’s almost a double pint. Why not make it two pints worth of ice cream? (Spotted by Amanda Y at Kroger.)
