A Taste of Halloween

[Monsters For Sale]

I haven't been able to find the Country Crock Pumpkin spread this year. They switched over to square containers...maybe that's part of the problem?

I couldn't find it, either.

I stocked up on the limited edition Thomas' English Muffins.  A friend suggested that I freeze a few packages.  I'm giving it a try.

Also got a few containers of the Ben & Jerry's Pumpkin Cheesecake Ice Cream for long after they are gone from stores.

I love circus peanuts! You just don't like gourmet food.

Circus Peanuts rock!

Rather than start a new topic for 2016, I will just start adding to the thread from 2015 - since many of last year's treats will probably return this year.

Nonni's makes Italian Biscotti in various flavors all year 'round.  For the holidays they have added this Limited Edition flavor:


                                   Nonni's Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Biscotti

I found these at a Big Lots Store.  (I still slip up and call them "Pick 'n' Save" some times.)

Don't these sound good with a cup of hot tea on a crisp October day?

(EDIT:  I gave these a try.  They are really GOOD!  I recommend them.)

Has anyone found the Count Chocula Bars this year? 

Trader Joe's has Pumpkin Joe-Joes (which are delicious) and some other cool stuff:

Some junk food entries:



                   Pumpkin Spice Twinkies from Hostess


                   Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes from Hostess  (Also comes in Sprinkles Topped variety - shown in an earlier post)


                  Frosted Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts from Kellogg's


                  Pumpkin Spice Pudding from Jell-O

The only one of these that sounds like it might be good is the Jell-O Brand Pudding.  Might be OK in individual Graham Cracker tart crusts.

Here are some less junkie, but more labor-intensive, choices:


                        Pumpkin Spice Quick Bread Mix from Krusteaz


                        Pumpkin Spice Supreme Muffin Mix from Krusteaz


                        Pumpkin Spice Complete Pancake Mix from Krusteaz

Am I the only one who thinks the pancake mix sounds like it might be worth a try?

                       Sweet Harvest Pumpkin Black Tea from Celestial Seasonings



                      Pumpkin Spice Oreo Crème Cookies from Nabisco

I'd like to try the Oreos.  They should wrap these 2 to a package - to give out to the trick-or-treaters.  I bet they would love them.

Here are some breakfast options:


                     Pumpkin Spice Instant Oatmeal from Quaker Oats


                     Pumpkin Spice Life Cereal from Quaker Oats


                     Pumpkin Spice Crunch Special K from Kellogg's


                     Pumpkin Spice Frosted Mini-Wheats from Kellogg's


                     Pumpkin Spice Cheerios from General Mills

Here's a thought:

You know those holiday Crunchy Snack Mixes that everyone makes with Cheerios?  I wonder what they would be like made with the Pumpkin Spice Cheerios.  You might try putting those out in bowls at the kids' Halloween party this year.

Speaking of breakfast...


                  Caramel Apple Swirl Bread  & Pumpkin Spice Swirl Bread from Pepperidge Farm

These might be good toasted with a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar.

-or- Since you have the toaster all warmed up...


                  Pumpkin Spice Eggos Waffles from Kellogg's

[Mike Scott]

Mmmmm!

[Monsters For Sale]

Mmmmm!

Which one?

Pumpkin spice Eggos and bread.

I thought these were from a previous year, but I found them listed in Mars' press release for 2016:


                    S'Mores M&M's from Mars Candy Company


Here is an ingredient for your homemade s'mores:


                  Pumpkin Spice Jet-Puffed Mallows from Kraft Foods


Use these instead of chocolate chips in your cookies - or in addition to them:


                  Pumpkin Spice Toll House Morsels from Nestle

Desert:


                    Pumpkin Slow-Churned Ice Cream from Dreyer's


In between meals snack:


                    Pumpkin Spice Almonds from Planters

[Mike Scott]

I'd like to try the ice cream!

I like the pumpkin rolls they make at WM around Thanksgiving!
