Signs at Target say the Cinnamon ones are new, but the internet says otherwise. Welcome back, Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Grahams Cinnamon! (Spotted by Eilish at Target.)
Shouldn’t the chocolate chips be IN the cookie dough? (Spotted by Ryan at Ralphs.)
I don’t think these could beat the flavor of non-organic Cheetos Puffs. Or be as radioactive orange. (Spotted by Carla at Target.)
A desperate soul out there is going to stick this in a bong and be extremely disappointed. (Spotted by Ryan at Trader Joe’s.)

The hemp seeds been around for a while. It’s hemp hearts from Manitoba.
Huurrrr. Jokes at the expense of marijuana users. Asshat.
The Packaging is NEW. Not the product itself is not. Hence the lack of a NEW on the Bag.
“Touch of Sweetness” is something I didn’t notice until after I had bought these Goldfish and is a very accurate description. Despite having the same amount of sugar on the nutrition facts, these are very mild compared to the Grahams in a funkier packaging (e.g. Vanilla Cupcake- both types have “Grahams” on the label, so the packaging is how I distinguish them), though they aren’t quite as mild as I recall graham crackers being from when I was 3.
The Cinnamon is good and as described, but not quite as powerful as I was expecting/hoping.
The Honey is OK, but my taste buds are struggling to pick up much honey; they taste pretty much like plain graham crackers. If that’s what you’re looking for, you probably won’t be disappointed. But I imagine the Honey Bun Grahams (in the funkier packaging) would be much stronger.
One nice comparison to the funkier Grahams is that neither the Honey or Cinnamon left much of a residue on my fingers, whereas the funkier type would leave as much sugar on my fingers as Cheetos would leave cheese.
These are the “funkier” ones: http://www.pepperidgefarm.com/ProductDetail.aspx?catID=1234&prdID=121084
I actually don’t yet see the Honey or Cinnamon ones pictured in this post in either that section or the “normal” section (http://www.pepperidgefarm.com/ProductDetail.aspx?catID=772&prdID=120538).
