Are you the type of person who gets all excited for Girl Scouts cookie season? Well, you have another reason to be excited, because they have a new flavor joining Thin Mints and Samoas. Coming in January, you can try the French toast–inspired Toast-Yay cookie. They taste like french toast and they are dipped in frosting to make it even sweeter. That makes it even harder to say no to them,
However, we will not be able to say no to the girls in front of our local supermarkets or dispensaries. That is because they will be doing virtual cookie booths for 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. Now, when you go shopping on Amazon, Etsy, or Chewy, they will pop up offering you their sugar addicition. Just joking.
They actually will be on social media. Therefore, if you don’t want to be bombarded with their hard sell, unfollow all of the parents you know whose kids are girl scouts.
The Super Bowl is supposed to be a happy occasion, but this year it will be a sad one. That is because there will be a funeral for Mr. Peanut during the third quarter.
Planters broke the news on social media. They wrote, “It is with heavy hearts that we confirm that Mr. Peanut has died at 104. In the ultimate selfless act, he sacrificed himself to save his friends when they needed him most. Please pay your respects with #RIPeanut.” He died so that Wesley Snipe and Matt Walsh did not have to.
No word who will replace him. It is too soon. However, it is not too soon for his friends to remember him. Mr. Clean was swept up with emotion and wrote, “Always classy, always crunchy, always cleaned up nicely. We’ll miss him! #RIPeanut” While Oreo tried to milk it up and asked their fans to “Help us give a 21 dunk salute to our nutty and sweet friend #RIPeanut”
Out of all of the mascots, why did it have to be him? Why couldn’t it have been the creepy Burger King?
Have you ever ate a Jelly Belly jellybean and wish that you could drink it up? Well, now you can!
The Joffer Beverage Company has teamed up with Jelly Belly to release eight different flavors of sparkling water that taste like the candy. They are French Vanilla, Lemon Lime, Orange Sherbet, Piña Colada, Pink Grapefruit, Tangerine, Very Cherry, and Watermelon. These are the eight original flavors that launched in 1976. Since then, they have grown to over 100 flavors. If this line of sparkling water does well, then we will see more flavors. I would live to drink toasted marshmallow, what flavors interest you?
Each can has two ingredients carbonated water and natural flavors. That means that there is zero sugar, zero calories, and zero sweeteners in each drink.
As of now, the cans are only available at Hy-Vee. However, they will soon be available on their websites including Jelly Belly Sparkling Water.
For the second year in a row, Oreo released a Mystery flavor cookie. They they asked us to guess what they tasted like.
Last year, it was Fruity Pebbles. This year, I thought it was Cinnamon Toast Crunch because I was keeping the cereal theme going on. I was close, but not close enough. The answer was Churro.
Did you guess it right? Would you get them again? I would not. However, I wish they would bring back the Flintstones’ flavored one. Those were even better than the cereal.
Over the last few years, Candy Canes are no longer just peppermint. They are bubblegum, strawberry, chocolate, Coca Cola, Rootbeer and so many other candy flavors.
Archie McPhee does not do those flavors. They already have bacon, clam, mac & cheese, Krampus, coal and pickle. This year they added three new flavors and they are ham, kale and pizza. An interesting array of flavors.
Those are just the candy canes, they also have lobster, gravy, pickle and bacon vegetable sucking candies.
As nasty as all of this sounds, I really want to try all of them. I might order some of them to taste. Then whichever ones I hate, I will put in an unlabeled bowl and let people try them too. The look on their faces will be my holiday joy. Which is why I better get the coal flavored canes.
