JUST WING IT
There's a new meat-free alternative to greasy 200 calorie-a-serving buffalo wings.
Morningstar Farms Meat-Free Buffalo Wings are now roaming your supermarket freezer.
Randy Wollert, senior brand manager, says this new meat-free product has experienced incredible sales.
"The wings are literally flying out of the stores," he reports.
EXTREME POPSICLES
New Popsicle varieties are out there waiting for a ride in your shopping cart.
Popsicle Micro Pops: A tube contains tiny microwater ice beads fused together to create this over-the-top treat.
Popsicle Big Bang: Three-flavor-layer ice pop with bubble gum, sour apple and cherry flavors. Adding to the BANG are teensy popping candies embedded in the cherry ice layer.
Tongue Splashers: An extreme color experience with strawberry ice "lips," and a white lemon ice "throat." A giant "tongue" with a color gumball imbedded in the middle is designed for the eater to paint his own tongue. Wonderful for the kids.
