I’d like to cut these in half, dip them in an egg mixture, and put them on a griddle. (Spotted by Chris N at Walmart.)
Pepsi Cherry Vanilla! Now with HFCS! (Spotted by Andrew at Exxon.)
I imagine these could also be used to celebrate Peace Day in September. (Spotted by Sylvia at Vons.)
Mott’s Low Sodium 100% Vegetable Juice that I’m 100% not excited about. (Spotted by Amanda at Target.)
Oh my yog! There are more Oh My Yog flavors! (Spotted by Rachel C at Target.)

The Pepsi is awesome but really hard to find and rather pricey at the moment. Only one store in our area carries it and only in one size, 12-pack of 12-oz cans for $5.49!
Those bunny cookies could also be flipped upside down and used by my dentist to show what happens when you eat too many Pillsbury cookies.
Found the CVP cans at Shoppers and Giant (but somehow limited to the town north of where I live), and FINALLY the bottles at my local Safeway. It’s my favorite soda, so I’m very happy to see it back.
What kinds of prices are you seeing for it?
Currently at Giant, the cans are ~5.99 (around the same as yours), but there’s a 3/$14 sale going on so that knocks off a dollar or so. The bottle I picked up today was 1.79.
I don’t now if anyone reading has tried the Mott’s vegetable juice before but I have to warn you; this is not a V8 clone. Mott’s also contains the juices from onions and bell peppers and those two flavors stand out, sometimes quite harshly.
While it’s not the most refreshing drink it works pretty well when added to recipes.
I absolutely HATE bell peppers so a huge thank you for the heads up!! I would never have expected that.
I hate them too, so t’was not a fun surprise!
I think it had dill in it as well? It tasted faintly like pickle juice to me.
I didn’t taste any dill, but like V8 the taste probably varies some by the bottle.
I’ve tried several of the “oh my yog” flavors and they’re way too sweet for me-and because it’s regular yogurt there isn’t enough protein to keep me full for long.
I’m going to stick with plain greek yogurt and fresh fruit.
