These sweet-tooth totaling taco shells are only available at Walmart.
Whataburger Spicy Ketchup

Crystal Light's Back
It's been a while since Crystal Light got a makeover. The low-cal drink mix popular with dieting moms is back and they've created a new look, as well as new mixology, immunity, and energy drink options. Mixers include Watermelon Margarita, Black Mojito, and Mai Tai flavors. All this screams ADD RUM AND A LIME to us. The immunity line comes in Orange Tangerine and Blueberry Pomegranate and is fortified with Zinc and Vitamin C. The energy products feature Raspberry Lemonade, Classic Lemonade, and Fruit Punch with 75mg of caffeine for an energizing kick in the tuchus.
White Castle Shrimp Nibblers
Late-night snacking solutions provider White Castle is rereleasing their Shrimp Nibblers and Sriracha Shrimp Nibblers nationwide. Jamie Richardson, vice president at White Castle, said the decision to bring back the products was triggered when they "...made big waves with our Cravers last year, so it only made sense to bring them back to shore in 2024." You can pick them up in small and medium sacks today.
MyMochi Waffle Bites

We just drooled. It will be available as a salad add-on as well as included in ready-to-order meals.
New Coca-Cola Spiced
This one got our juices flowin' because we love us some Coca-Cola. You're telling us our favorite pizza chaser now comes "Spiced?" Whaaaaaaat? The zesty Coca-Cola Spiced and Coca-Cola Spiced Zero Sugar brands are the first "permanent" additions to the Coke portfolio in quite a while - AKA they aren't some experiment they will take off the shelves in a week. These launch on February 19th in the US.

Tillamook Chocolate Ice Cream With More Coacoa
Tillamook's new curated chocolate ice cream line claims to have 45% more cocoa than their traditional chocolate ice cream, which is pretty chocolatey already. We don't have a chocolate yardstick to compare this to, but more cocoa means more awesome to us. Variations include Brownie Batter, Dark Chocolate Cookies & Cream, and Chocolate Hazelnut. It's available at Kroger, Albertsons, Safeway, Publix, Ahold Delhaize and more US stores.
