Yoplait Original Cookies 'n Cream and Caramel

I soooo want to dip an Oreo cookie into that Yoplait Original Cookies ‘n Cream Yogurt. But I do believe the lip of the container is not wide enough for an Oreo. (Spotted by Dubba at Walmart.)

Dannon Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt (Peach, Coconut Creme, and Banana Creme)

Dannon Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt (Vanilla and Strawberry)

Dannon Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt is being marketed to men and it’s the Official Yogurt of the NFL. It’s called Triple Zero because is has no added sugar, no artificial sweeteners, and no fat. It comes in six flavors: Vanilla, Coconut Crème, Strawberry, Banana Crème, Mixed Berry, and Peach. I will continue to suck on Yoplait Go-Gurt. (Spotted by Sarah at Walmart and another Sarah at Walmart.)

Great Value Limited Edition Seasonal Delights Cherry Limeade and Wildberry Yogurt

These Great Value Limited Edition Seasonal Delights Yogurt flavors look like they’re from a season other than the one we’re currently in. (Spotted by Chibi at Walmart.)

Muller Yogurt (Vanilla Bean, Raspberry Chocolate Chip, Mint Chocolate Chip)

I totally forgot about Müller yogurt. They just get lost among the Yoplaits, Dannons, Chobanis, Fages, YoCrunchs, Stonyfields, Libertés, LaYogurts, The Greek Gods, Siggi’s, Noosas, Mountain Highs, Voskos, and all the store brands. (Spotted by Lisa at Walmart.)

Dove Milk Chocolate & Red Velvet Swirl

There should be a trick-or-treat type of holiday after Valentine’s Day so people can get rid of their unwanted Valentine’s candy. Junk Food Guy has a review of these Dove chocolates. (Spotted by Ryan at Target.)

Kroger Chili Lime and Ranch Taco Shells

Kroger Nacho Cheese Taco Shells

Flavored taco shells must sell well if there’s a store brand version. Also taco parties must be more awesome now. (Spotted by Sylvia at Ralphs.)

Pop-Secret Sweet 'n Crunchy Cinnamon Roll Popcorn

Cinnabon likes to put its name on products as much as Donald Trump like to put his name on buildings, so I’m surprised there’s no Cinnabon logo on this. (Spotted by Jarred at Publix.)

Kellogg's Special K Brownies (Heavenly Caramel and Divine Fudge)

Kellogg's Special K Snack Bars (Salted Caramel Chocolate and Blueberry Bliss)

I sometimes think Kellogg created these Special K snacks to say I’m sorry for the blandness of original Special K cereal. (Spotted by Nick at Hannaford and Carla at Walmart.)

Tastykake Limited Edition Red Velvet and Salted Caramel Mini Donuts

Tastykake Limited Edition Red Velvet and Salted Caramel Mini Donuts

How about giving us mini Krimpets instead of these mini donuts, Tastykake. (Spotted by Sarah at Dollar General.)

V8 Veggie Blends (Carrot Mango, Golden Goodness, Healthy Greens, Purple Power)

V8 Veggie Blends (Carrot Mango, Golden Goodness, Healthy Greens, Purple Power)

Wait a minute…is that a purple carrot? (Spotted by Carla at Walmart.)

Luna Chocolate Cupcake Bar

Luna Chocolate Cupcake Bar

I don’t want to speak for all men, but I’d like a chocolate cupcake flavored nutrition bar. (Spotted by Sara at Target.)

Quaker Quinoa Granola Bars

Quaker Quinoa Granola Bars

You’re not so special anymore, Canada! You used to be the only North American country with Quaker Quinoa Granola Bars. But now, we got them too. Sure, probably 30-40 percent of us in the U.S. don’t know how to pronounce “quinoa,” but we have these Quaker bars now. (Spotted by Nick at Hannaford.)

Post Shredded Wheat Crunch Cereal

Post Shredded Wheat Crunch Cereal

I find it funny Post calls this cereal Shredded Wheat Crunch! because I like to call Post’s regular Shredded Wheat cereal Shredded Wheat Soggy! (Spotted by Jarred at Walmart.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES: Trader Joe’s Sweet Sriracha Uncured Bacon Jerky

Trader Joe's Sweet Sriracha Uncured Bacon Jerky

If you chop these up and use the bacon jerky bits to top a Cronut, you would combine three of the biggest food trends of the past five years into one item. (Spotted by Sylvia at Trader Joe’s.)

SPOTTED ON SHELVES: Food Truck Flavors Kickin’ Chicken Taco Pringles

Food Truck Flavors Kickin' Chicken Taco Pringles

I wonder if there’s a bit of chicken flavor with these Pringles, or do they have a generic taco flavor and they added the word “chicken” to the name because it rhymes with “kickin'”? Oh, in case you’re wondering what other Food Truck Flavors there are, there’s a cheeseburger flavor. But Cheeseburger Pringles is a limited time only flavor that seems to come back every year. (Spotted by Lindsay at Meijer.)
