Old El Paso Locos Taco Shells. (Spotted by Robbie at Walmart.)
“Tasty cold”? I don’t believe that. (Spotted by Lindsey C at Kroger.)

Hey Canadians! Enjoy a Tim Hortons Iced Capp without entering a Tim Hortons! (Spotted by Curtis T at Walmart in Canada.)

I’m starting to wonder what the heck is wrong with my Walmarts. Many times I see items on clearance that I’ve never seen on shelves, most being brand new items like the Taco Hummus and Spicy Shells for instance, which I picked up for 50 cents.
I have yet to try these shells out, but the other ones are so good.
I know this is a month old but I notice the same thing at my local Wal-Mart!
Ripple…looks an awful lot like nipple. That’s unfortunate.
The Entenmann’s is basically cinnamon cake with powdered sugar sprinkled on top. Not bad, really, but it doesn’t scream French toast.
The Ripple vanilla and chocolate are fine – the flavors cover the base well enough. The unflavored version is undrinkable.
Ripple tastes pretty good on cereal, almost like a soy milk, and I like the fact that their bottles are recyclable. Most plant based “milks” use Tetra Pak cartons which aren’t recyclable in my area. Another brand called Califia Farms has the right idea too, using only recyclable plastics for their containers, but they only do almond milks. Usually almond milk is peoples go to gold standard when it comes to plant based milk, but I love my soy milk lol.
