Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Pepsi

Yesterday, I saw a commercial for mango-flavored Pepsi, and I thought that sounded so gross. This morning I woke up to discover they are making a flavor that is even grosser than that.

“After what has been a very difficult year, many consumers are looking for new things to smile about. So, to celebrate the start of springtime, Pepsi collaborated with PEEPS® to develop a limited batch of its first-ever marshmallow cola. This PEPSI x PEEPS® collaboration will be available in three bright colors through a distinctive mini-can design and will most certainly have fans buzzing all season long,” said Todd Kaplan, VP Marketing – Pepsi. “We know our consumers love our limited product drops, and we believe that PEPSI x PEEPS® will deliver an iconic and delicious pairing that has the potential to become a fan favorite.”

Does this sound so good to you that you are going to run to the store to get it? Sit back down because it is only available via a contest for the time being. In order to enter, you need to send in a picture of yourself enjoying Peeps and send it to @PEPSI, and tag it with #HangingWithMyPEEPS and #PepsiSweepstakes on Twitter and Instagram by March 31st.

Maybe if enough people enter, they will decide to sell it so that we can all have a sip. We will need something to get rid of the taste of Pepsi Mango from our mouths.

Dunkin’ Donuts has been expanding its brand over the last few years. They have ventured into the cereal business, much to the delight of my belly, and now they are teaming up with Frankford Candy for jellybeans based on their iced coffee flavors.

Brian Gilbert, Vice President of Retail Business Development at Dunkin’, says, “Jelly beans are such a classic and popular part of the holiday and seasonal celebration. We are thrilled to team up with Frankford Candy, the leader in confections that have delighted Americans for decades, to create a fun and sweet new way for people to enjoy the great taste of Dunkin’.”

What flavors will be in the $3.49 bag that will be available at Walgreen’s and Rite-Aid? They will taste like Dunkin’s signature iced coffees like French Vanilla, Caramel Latte, Butter Pecan, Toasted Coconut, and Hazelnut.

My mouth is already wet with desire for them. Too bad we have to wait until Easter to eat them. Even sadder is that they will only be available for a limited time. Maybe if we eat enough of them; they will make it a permanent thing?

Long before there were energy drinks, we had Mountain Dew. That was back in the time when they made a little movie called Gremlins.

Since then, Mountain Dew has changed things up with their soda by trying out different flavors. Now, they released a new version without sugar. They wanted to get the word out, so they asked Zach Galligan and his best friend Gizmo to do a commercial for their soft drink.

What happens when a Mogwai drinks the chartreuse liquid? A bunch of hyper Gremlins jump out of him.

Do you know what would make this commercial even better? Is if they gave Gizmo the one with sugar. Imagine all of those Gremlins bouncing off of him. It is the perfect start for Gremlins 3. It would be like Gremlins 2 but on Mountain Dew.

Jeni’s Ice Cream

What does it taste like? According to the site, “Buttery streusel laden with sesame, poppy seeds—and yes, onions and garlic—schmeared throughout subtly sweet cream cheese ice cream.” I don’t know about you, but my mouth is all wet just thinking about it. Oy, am I verklempt.

Therefore, I am running out to buy a pint at either Whole Foods or Gelson’s right now. Since I am already going to be there, I might as well try some of their other flavors like Goat Cheese with Red Cherries, Gooey Butter Cake, Darkest Chocolate, Boston Cream Pie, or one of their other many other scrumptious flavors. There are so many to choose from. Since I am not going anywhere or seeing anyone, what are an extra few pounds?

Lucky Charms is getting into the St. Patrick’s Day spirit this year. They have released limited editions of the regular and chocolate cereals that will turn your milk from white to green.

As cool as that sounds, I want to know what else it turns green? Remember when Burger King had that Halloween Whopper that turned your crap green? Now you see where I was going with my thought? Why did I even picture that? Also, why I am running to the store to buy a box to find out?
