Mountain Dew Solar Flare is “Dew with a Blast of Tropical Punch.” It isn’t officially summer, but it’s already at select 7-Eleven locations, according to the comments at this blog. Not only is it a 7-Eleven exclusive flavor, it also appears to be available only at the fountain. (Spotted by Eric at 7-Eleven.)

“Share a square”? That means I have to interact with people. Candy Crush isn’t going to play by itself. (Spotted by Lindsay at Meijer.)

With a bag of York Peppermint Patty Minis, I get the sensation that I might’ve eaten too many York Peppermint Patty Minis because there are no wrappers to give me pause. (Spotted by Lindsay at Meijer.)

I make it fresh! I make it fresh! Nah! I’d rather not make it fresh, but make it quick, and just buy a bottle of salad dressing. (Spotted by Charmi at Foodland.)

I’ve never heard of Heinz American Sauce, and I’m an American! After a Google search, I learned it’s been around for a few years in Germany. Its color reminds me of Thousand Island dressing. According to this blog, the sauce is made with tomatoes, shallots, and parsley. Has anyone tried Heinz American Sauce? Also, does Heinz sell their American Sauce in America? (Thanks Paul, who vacationed in Germany, for the photo!)

No Keebler magic to knock out the holes in their pretzel thins? (Spotted by Dubba at Walmart.)

If I was a pirate and only interested in products with carbs, I’d probably be laughed at by other pirates and have scurvy. (Spotted by Amanda at Target.)

Is there a South African ice cream company willing to make a patriotic ice cream with all the colors in their country’s flag? (Spotted by Traumajunky at Cash Savers.)
