SPOTTED ON SHELVES (HOLIDAY EDITION) – 11/21/2012

Here are some new and limited edition holiday products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers. We may or may not review them, but we’d like to let you know what new items are popping up.

I guess if I pit two milk chocolate dipped Sugar Cookie Peeps against each other in a Peeps War, the milk chocolate would act as armor. (Spotted by Alexis at Target.)

Häagen-Dazs Peppermint Bark Ice Cream is back for a limited time in ice cream bar and almost-a-pint forms. Here are reviews of the ice cream from Junk Food Guy and On Second Scoop. (Ice cream bars spotted by Tracy at Safeway. Ice cream spotted by Nick at Price Chopper.)

Oooh, Holiday Chips Ahoy! Christmas has come early! Geez, I haven’t had such fake enthusiasm for a product since Halloween Chips Ahoy. And prior to that, it was for American Summer Chips Ahoy. Yay for colors allowing Nabisco to make Chips Ahoy cookies for any situation! (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

If I ask for hot cocoa when it’s chilly and someone gives me a bunch of these 3 Musketeers Hot Cocoa with Marshmallow Minis in a mug, I’ll laugh at first. Then I’ll say, “No, seriously. Where’s my hot cocoa? It’s freezing. If I don’t have a mug of hot cocoa in my hands in 60 seconds, someone is going to end up like Han’s tauntaun.” Here are reviews from Foodette Reviews and Spoil Your Dinner. (Spotted by Laura at Walmart.)

Awesome! Folks can put cookies, leftovers, or lots of cocaine or marijuana in really cute limited edition holiday Ziploc bags. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)
