Wha-tha-what? Your cookie of the year? Triple chip cookie dough is MY cookie of the year! (Spotted by Kelly at Redner’s.)
Your move, Lipton. (Spotted by Joshua at Target.)
I’m disappointed the Sour Patch Kids aren’t connected at the sides to make it look like they’re part of a suspect lineup. They should be because they assault my tongue like no other candy. (Spotted by Sara at Target.)
Smucker’s Hot Caramel Topping isn’t new, but Smucker’s Hot Caramel Topping in a microwaveable bottle is. All the pain of hot candle wax, but edible! Sadists rejoice! (Spotted by Sara at Walmart.)
I want to get messy with some dulce de leche just so I can use Method’s Fall Collection Dulce De Leche foaming hand wash to wash it all off. (Spotted by Sylvia at Target.)
I could’ve sworn we already covered these Walmart exclusive Salsa con Queso Goldfish Puffs in a previous post. But we didn’t. Maybe I imagined it after snorting crushed Goldfish Puffs. Junk Food Guy has a review. (Spotted by Pilar at Walmart.)

I need to say something by writing it down: Method. Please design soap that looks as pretty as it smells. I REALLY do not want my Dulce De Leche soap container have dashes of lines in the crayon color of ‘dung’ or ‘dirt’ on the freakin’ bottle. What is the purpose; To be aware of what Dulce De Leche is by the color of the graham cracker crust of a Dulce de Leche Cheesecake? I dont know. All I know is that it makes me want to go to whoever runs Method and ask them if they somehow think that little girls and women, since those with those specified sexual organs within their bodies are somehow conditioned to be the only human beings who care about washing their hands and smellingg nice and looking at things not colored in doo-doo colors, ok, I need to ask that Method CEO; Hey CEO, do you want a turd striped soap in your kitchen. Oh wait, do you want Plumeria, which I guess is a plant in which is purple since both plumeria and purple starts with a ‘p’, so. But, purple dash marks? I am in fashion and design; Purple Dash Marks? What kind of design team does that to such a romantic marketing scheme that has labels such as ‘Dulce de Leche’ and freakin ‘Plumeria’. Who is it being marketed to? Silver Birch design is fine and good because it is the neutral product that those who are not possessing certain sexual reporductive organs within their bodies can buy with dignity, since men are conditioned to be pigeonholed into feeling like they live in a tree or a log cabin and like mossy environments. SO, that marketing is totally fine. But, REALLY? What is it called; Treadmarks? When poo stays on underwear? Dulce de Leche, anyone.
And no, I do not regret lashing out about this. If you post anything about Kleenex boxes, which have some of the WORST ‘my grandma decoupaged this for you’ designs on them and look like they are thirty years old after you just bought them yesterday since there are wilted yellow flowers all over the freakin’ box; If younpost anything anout Kleenex boxes; Expect me to comment on that too. I pity Kleenex and Soap Designers. Just horrible. And, nevermind. Im going to stop now.
Ugh
The tollhouse cookies are a disappointment. It appears as if they just took the regular place and bake cookies and tossed some dark and white chocolate chips on top. They aren’t mixed in at all and they sort of tasted salty. So sad.
My son is a goldfish fanatic. These puffs were nasty. We had a couple, and threw the bag away.
