This has got me thinking. We haven’t seen an Oreo with a spicy kick. So maybe Mexican Chocolate Oreo Cookies? (Spotted by Rebecca B at H-E-B.)
Mmm…spicy beer. (Spotted by Robbie at H-E-B.)
I can’t wait for Krispy Branyant cereal! (Spotted by Chuck at Jewel.)
How come lemon isn’t attached to a location? Other flavors with ties to particular regions include Indonesian Vanilla Bean and Brazilian Sea Salt Caramel. (Spotted by Rachel C at Target.)
They’re back again! Do you prefer these or Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts? (Spotted by Karin at Walmart.)

The Pumpkin Pie Toaster Strudels should be better than the Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts, which I refer to as Pumpkin Pie Crust Pop-Tarts. The flavor of the poptarts filling was spot-on, and the ratio of filling-to-crust was perfectly normal for a poptart, but the ratio was way out of whack compared to an actual pumpkin pie. I wouldn’t want to be served a piece of pumpkin pie that consisted of mostly pie crust with a small layer of filling in-between, so that’s why the poptarts just didn’t appeal to me. The Toaster Strudels should not give me the same experience.
Coincidentally, I had a Liberte yogurt this morning, but it was French Lavender flavor. Quite good. If I knew it was new, I would have sent a pic in.
Sweet heat cookies? BARF! Mexican chocolate oreos…genius!
Had both Pop Tart and Strudel versions, and neither was great. The strudel had a flaky pastry edge for sure, but the filling had a little bitter finish.
