Fruity Bunches of Oats…oh wait, wrong cereal company. (Spotted by Robbie at Walmart.)
I wish MorningStar Farms products weren’t so damn expensive. (Spotted by Blaire at ShopRite.)
So close to a margarita-flavored chip. (Spotted by Adam at Wegmans.)
Oh, this ancient grains trend is still going on? I thought that trend was ancient history. Sorry. (Spotted by Marvo at Safeway.)

The ancient grains trend definitely isn’t going anywhere. I live in Omaha, home to ConAgra Foods, and I just participated in one of their food taste test focus groups this week. We taste tested a new ancient grains pasta.
I picked up some margarita flavored kettle chips from Also the other week. I’m afraid to open them.
I’ll be trying those chex clusters.
Love the morning star products but agree that they are too expensive! Even when they go on sale they are out of my price range.
The Morningstar Farms breakfast sandwich line is absolutely vile, unless you have an urgent hankering for damp, salty sponge egg shoved between two pieces of balsa wood, in which case you will find these to be delightful. I miss the old MSF Egg, Cheese and Veggie Sausage Breakfast Biscuits… sigh.
