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.

Lay s Kettle Cooked Jalapeno Potato Chips  2017 Bag Design

Lay’s Kettle Cooked Jalapeno Potato Chips (2017 Bag Design)

Hmmm. I dunno. Maybe I hate change. Maybe I think the bag on the right looks nicer. Maybe I need to see what the other flavors look like. Maybe I’m spending too much time thinking about a potato chip bag. (Spotted by Kimberly M at Kroger.)

The Airheads have no artificial colors, but, man, it makes up for the artificialness with the flavors. (Spotted by Robbie at H-E-B.)

I hope Cars 3 doesn’t make me cry as much as Toy Story 3 did. (Spotted by Robbie at Target.)

McCormick Grill Mates Limited Edition Flavor Layering Kits

I guess, when these kits disappear, you can just buy the spices individually. You won’t get the special “limited edition” packaging, but only hoarders and the person typing this sentence would want to keep that. (Spotted by Carla at Walmart.)

Does Wrigley still make the Starburst Cherry flavored gum that smells like vomit? (Spotted by Jake G at Frys.)

It’s also available in dill pickle and smoked jalapeño flavors, if you’re looking to get your probiotics from a chip. Sauerkraut and masa are used to make the chip and the probiotics are added later. (Spotted by Trevor L at Shoprite.)

  1. Both kettle chip bags look terrible. The original looks too folksy and old fashioned, while the new one has no form whatsoever. It’s like they took a green bag and wrote “Kettle Cooked” on it with an old yellow sharpie.

    1. I agree the new bag is horrible; it actually looks like a grocery store knock-off of the original.

  2. “Crime Fighting Punch” What does a white freezer pop taste like? I have yet to find out…

  3. If you missed the White Mystery Freeze at Taco Bell, now it’s back in freezer bar form! Boxes may or may not contain all 7 flavors.

    The frozen pops, these are the same flavors as the 3 frozen gelatins. Chilled Berry one (even though it didnt taste that good due to artificial sweeteners) had a nice teal color to it

  4. It actually is nice to see some new flavor additions to the Fla-Vor-Ice lineup. My favorite from back then were the blue, pink, and green, and now there’s white which I might want to try soon.
