Hey, douchebags who mess with Sasquatch! Jack Link’s Beef Jerky has a new sriracha flavor. (Spotted by Rebecca at Walmart.)
Red Robin. Yummm! If we can’t have Red Robin microwaveable gourmet burgers, I guess this is the best next thing. (Spotted by Michael at Schnucks.)
Combining white sauce, cheese, and potatoes is apparently “special.” (Spotted by Kassie at Kroger.)
Mmmm…dessert waffles. Toast two of these waffles, slap a scoop of vanilla ice cream between them, and then let the ice cream and your troubles melt away. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)
GAME TIME! Go (insert favorite football team name here)! Eat the entire can by yourself before halftime! Feel shame for the rest of the game! Feel even worse when your team loses! (Spotted by Marvo at Walmart.)

Here are five recent fast food news bites:
Wienerschnitzel is offering seasoned curly fries for a limited time. I hope curly hot dogs are next. (via Grub Grade)
In case you missed the previous four, it’s Popeyes 5th Annual Crawfish Festival! (via Popeyes)
New Starbucks breakfast sandwiches are being tested. Can Starbucks also test the spelling abilities of some of their baristas? (via Starbucks Melody)
McDonald’s is bringing back their Cheddar Bacon Onion burger, or CBO if you’re nasty. (via Grub Grade)
But who cares about the CBO, because…the McRib is back! So get yourself a lot of napkins and enjoy! (via McDonald’s)
Purchased Price: $3.79
Size: 10 oz.
Purchased at: Target
Rating: 5 out of 10
Pros: Marinara sauce has decent flavor. Lots of sauce. Good amount of filled tortellini. Good source of fiber, vitamin A, calcium, and vitamin C.
Cons: Chewy tortellini pasta is, perhaps, too al dente. With half of the tortellini I could taste the ricotta and asiago cheese filling, but with the other half, not so much. Marinara sauce isn’t very zesty. Mozzarella cheese sticks to fork like glue and came in clumps. The packaging recommends pairing it with a pinot noir, but I’m pretty sure that won’t fly in your workplace break room.

Because Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles rock my world, I don’t think this Sugar Cookie Pebbles Cereal is going to boulder me over and be as horrible as me forcing rock references into this sentence. (Spotted by Steve at Giant.)
