A Taste of Halloween

[Monsters For Sale]

We knew about these, already:


                HALLOWEEN - Food - Cheetos - Bag of Bones - White Cheddar




First I've seen of these:


              HALLOWEEN - Food - Cheetos - Bag of Bones - Flamin' Hot

[Monsters For Sale]

These might be OK if you want the taste, but not a whole pie:


                                                HALLOWEEN - Food - Pop Tarts - Pumpkin Pie

I've never been interested in the fruit-flavored Pop Tarts, but I could be tempted to try one of these.

[Doh!]

Well, NOW I'm hungry!

I don't know about this.....I love my strawberry Pop Tarts.

Does "Fruit Flavored" mean these are gummy bear-type snacks?

These have been around for a while.  The bag designs are pictured on the box.  (The bag graphics change every year.)

I like these little bags of pretzels.  I usually just want a few pretzels - but then I get stuck with a whole open bag that gets stale.  With these I can have a few at a time and all the rest stay sealed.

I also like the mini pretzels because I can pop the whole pretzel in my mouth at once and avoid all the pretzel crumbs that result from eating a giant Bavarian pretzel.

Here are last year's Hostess GloBalls:



Has anyone seen a different variant this year? Are they back to being offered in this box?

Have you tried these? Any good?

The marshmallow cupcake glow balls taste like any other color of Hostess snowball, I eat those all year long.

Why can't they redesign the General Mills Monster Cereal boxes? Those are the same as the ones they've had for the last two years, or better yet rerelease Yummy Mummy and Fruit Brute which hasn't happened since 2014.

Worst Hallow-taste news by far is that it appears that Target will NOT I repeat Not have the Hersey's chocolate apples filled with caramel and green apple this year despite being a smash hit for the last two years straight. I checked brick stock, I looked at SKUs at 4 different Target stores for their candy placements and I checked the Hersey's website, not a mention. I report this with deep sorrow because as far as I know they were the single greatest confection ever concocted by mortal man, beyond good, I mean eye-roll and shudder good. So good in fact that they sold out immediately on the day of, I had to go to seven stores to finally find some last year and bought all 10 bags they had when I did. Lament with me monster friends, a tasty fall treat is gone or appears to be.

R.I.P. favorite Halloween candy

I don't remember ever seeing Hostess SnoBalls in Canada. I usually sample a package, preferably pink ones, whenever I visit the States.

R.I.P. favorite Halloween candy

I never came across these, I did however get Russel Stover caramel apple filled chocolates in previous years but haven't seen those in stores this year either.  They do have them listed on their site though.  https://www.russellstover.com/milk-chocolate-caramel-apple-13-oz-bar-9477 with peanuts too https://www.russellstover.com/milk-chocolate-caramel-apple-with-nuts-13-oz-bar-9478

[ravenloft]

I don't know if I would chance that as I am allergic to peanuts so if they have similar bags some with nuts some without too risky probably made on the same line. Also those look much larger than the Hersey's ones which were the size of a dollar coin or so.
You don't even chew you just let the chocolate melt in your mouth to experience the caramel apple sensation upon center breakthrough while letting the whole syrupy melted choco-mess slide down your throat. Man, I haven't had one in a year but can still taste it now. Looks like I need to message the Hersey's company and demand some answers. Pure decadence. Few things in life give that sort of indulgent food gratification, a cold beverage of your favorite flavor, a nice bite into a tasty well planned and proportioned sandwich, steaming cheese stretching from you pizza.


I just saw Cadbury mini eggs usually available at Easter reskinned for Halloween as well

Well, for someone who has given up eating these types of things for a long time,  these particular posts are really,really making it hard to adhere to "not giving in" to these  delicious temptations,  I think I'm going to cheat a bit.
