Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers. If you’ve tried any of the products, share your thoughts about them in the comments.<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Dippin'<\/a><\/p>\n
Dippin’ Dots Gumballs<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

The last time I had Dippin’ Dots was, maybe, a decade ago. The last time I had a gumball was, maybe, a decade ago. I don’t see myself have either within the next decade. (Spotted by Caitlin J at Spencer’s.)<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Hammond's<\/a><\/p>\n
Hammond’s Cookie Butter Classic Chocolate Confections<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"Hammond's<\/a><\/p>\n
Hammond’s Devil’s Food Donut Classic Chocolate Confections<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

(Spotted by Morgan N at Target.)<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Ritter<\/a><\/p>\n
Ritter Sport Karamell-Mousse<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

Looks g\u00fc\u00fcd. I don’t think I’m properly using the umlauts. (Spotted by Rachel C at Pop N Sweets.)<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Adams<\/a><\/p>\n
Adams Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

(Spotted by Sunny S at Kroger.)<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Lipton<\/a><\/p>\n
Lipton Tea Ornaments<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

“Hey Little Timmy, open one of those ornaments. There’s a surprise in it,” said Ruth. “A surprise! Oh boy!” yelled Little Timmy. Timmy opened the ornament and then asked, “What is it?” “Tea,” Ruth replied. “Yay! Tea!” Little Timmy yelled. And that was the first time Little Timmy used sarcasm. (Spotted by Robbie at H-E-B.)<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\"Yoplait<\/a><\/p>\n
Yoplait Greek 100 Protein Yogurt (Blueberry and Raspberry)<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"Yoplait<\/a><\/p>\n
Yoplait Greek 100 Protein Yogurt (Mango, Strawberry Banana, and Lemon)<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"Yoplait<\/a><\/p>\n
Yoplait Greek 100 Protein Yogurt (Vanilla and Tropical Fruit)<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"Yoplait<\/a><\/p>\n
Yoplait Greek 100 Protein Yogurt (Apple Pie and Strawberry Cheesecake)<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"Yoplait<\/a><\/p>\n
Yoplait Greek 100 Protein Yogurt Black Cherry<\/div>\n

<\/em><\/div>\n

These appear to be replacing Yoplait Greek 100 Yogurt. If they weren’t, it would be confusing to have Yoplait Greek 100 Yogurt, Yoplait Greek 100 Protein, and Yoplait Greek 100 Whips. (Spotted by Caitlin J at ShopRite and Carla at Walmart.)<\/i><\/p>\n
