In the middle of a sea of focus-grouped brand extensions, crossovers, tie-ins, limited editions, and other attempts to carve out more shelf space in the overwhelming sensory overload of the modern supermarket, I found the praise for Ritter, German manufacturer of square candy bars (try the dark chocolate with whole hazelnuts), to be almost heartwarming.

Yeah, the Ritter bars with hazelnuts are really great. Just good quality chocolate and a generous amount of hazelnuts!

If there's one thing America does well, it's the insane amount and variation on junk food.

I have had: Takis Dragon Sweet Chili (disappointing), Goldfish Spicy Dill Pickle (the best), Pringles Chili Cheese Fries (gross). Shepherd had the Oreo Sour Patch Kids cookies because my best friend knows he loves weird trash so she mailed me some. In fact, the only reason I have had any of these is because I have friends and family in the US who will send me stuff.

I think I bought a bag of Coke flavoured Oreos this year, my son and I had seen them at the grocery store before and thought it was weird but once it inevitably was on sale we decided to give it a shot and were not impressed. The other side of this collaberation was Oreo flavoured Coke but it was either Coke Zero or Diet Coke so we didn't bother with it.

I've had seven of these, but only because I've only had access to seven of these. Has there been some kind of tariff on stunt junk food I'm not aware of?

Ritter Sports are indeed amazing, and it's a tragedy that you can't get them here in the US for less than a 300-400% markup.

Yesterday I stepped into a Sprouts a few blocks from me in hopes of finding some dried fruit I could scissor up on unsweetened cereal in the morning.

I looked at more than 200 self serve tubs containing mainly fruit, nuts, and fruit and/or nut based snacks.

There were exactly 7 tubs of unadulterated dried fruit: 4 kinds of raisins, pitted prunes, Turkish apricots, and some mango slices.

It's not pictured here, but there's something I need to get off my chest. For years, Oreo has been messing with the quantity of Stuf in their cookies. There's classic, and then there's Double Stuf, and then Mega Stuf. So this year they finally got around to exploring the other end of the Stuf spectrum by introducing Thins, which have about half a classic Oreo's worth of Stuf in it. Fair enough.

So imagine my surprise when I walked into my local grocery the other day, and right there, where kids could see it, in front of god and everything is a package labeled "Oreo Thins Extra Stuf".

Oreo. Thins. Extra. Stuf.

I wonder if there was a moment at the cookie company board meeting where someone raised their hand and said "but, isn't that just a regular Oreo?" and the CEO got super flustered and excused himself and then ran off to the boardwalk and asked the fortune telling machine to make him a kid again.

the post title is truly masterful.

the Smoked Gouda Cheez-its arrived last week and I indulged a bit over the weekend. They are good, they have a pretty authentic Smoked Gouda aroma and flavor. But they did not scratch the same itch for me, as the Originals do. So I didn't eat as many as I might have. I think there is a lesson here (call it The Lesson of the OREO-boros). Maybe just take the win and go home. Oreos, Cheez-its, in their original incarnations, have been household hits for decades. Don't fuck with it.

on the other hand, I am convinced that somewhere deep inside Corporate HeadquartersTM there is a room filled with people who are taking a lot of drugs, and just coming up with these insane variants. Black and White cookie Oreo????? I say good day to you, sir. GOOD DAY! a Ding-Dong Twinkie mashup?? a marriage made in Hell, I am sure.

I'm starting to think there may be another room of stoned people, at the other end of the production line, forced to try these frankenstonian travesties before they are foisted on the hungry masses. (why yes, I am watching S2 of Severance right now, why do you ask?)

Out of morbid curiosity, I tried the "Spiced" Coke Zero sometime last year late at night while making a pit stop for fuel on a road trip. It was a bit like hearing a new band that makes you bristle at first, but something in the sound keeps you revisiting them, despite your misgivings. Anyway, I got hooked on the damn stuff, then my (Coke-hating) ex got hooked also because I had it in my fridge for our weekly movie nights and it mixed well with his liquor of choice at the time. Then the supply around town dwindled and dwindled until it was gone. I'm not sure if the "Y3000" was sold in a different market, but I suppose I'm glad I missed it.

I don't think Mondelez is looking for massive growth here by introducing Open Pit BBQ-flavored Oreos*. But if you look around they're not really advertising them in traditional media, either. They're throwing stupid shit against the wall and hoping some TikToker (or Cabel Sasser) notices and puts it on the interwebs and people run to WalMart looking for it. We're doing their work for free.

I have eaten more of these items than I would like to admit; and yes, I would probably eat the rest of them.

I run a small restaurant/B&B on an island with a lighthouse. But that's not the important part.

When we first got here, I had night terrors about stuff happening like in The Heart of The Sea. You know, running out of food. So I started stocking, stocking, stocking. And I LOVE snacks. I put a bookcase in the lighthouse-keepers cottage (where my wife and I live) and stocked it with every kinda new-fangled snack I could find. It looks like the impulse rack at a 7/11 in Katmandu.

But the thing is, we've been here almost two years, and I haven't opened hardly ANYTHING. Just knowing it's there is enough. Also, the huge basket of sweets? There's a couple Ritters kicking around in there, you know it, baby. Our favorite (which we do actually open) is those huge bags of asian shrimp chips that melt on the tongue, though Costco hasn't had those for a while.

When we build the charcuterie snack boards for the guests, along with the cheese, and the pesto/sundried tomato/parmigianna reggiano, and the gluten-free crackers (hey, it's California), and the spinach artichoke dip, I always include some special snacks, exotica, although to be clear, the favorites are stuff like yogurt pretzels, madeleines and chocolate crepes. My rule of thumb is to buy stuff that people wouldn't normally buy for themselves. The mint chocolate Girl Scout cookie pretzels were a big hit too. I don't think they had real Girl Scouts in them, though.

The Lay's tzatziki chips are pretty good: basically mild sour cream with a bit of garlic and dill. Would recommend.

I have not tried the Ritter bars shown in his product listing, but I can confirm that they make an absolutely solid range of chocolate bars for a reasonable price.

The only problem with Ritter that they haven't engineered a solution to is that you break the square bar in half and promise yourself you'll save the other half, which is a promise that is often subsequently and easily broken about 15-20 minutes later.

Point of order: Takis are made by Bimbo, a Mexican company, since 1999. Judging by the middle school crowd, they are worth their weight in gold. I've seen kids make astonishing trades for just a few takis, also discussed here by Mr. Lindsay.

Doritos (Frito-Lay, US), are clearly trying to play catch up with their "stick" products. While they may taste nearly identical, they will never have that name-brand cachet enjoyed by Takis ( for the past eleven years, catch me at my crib etc). I get my takis at ALDI now, that's how popular they are.

I would totally try the spicy queso Funyuns, but I haven't seen them on the shelf yet...
Oh and speaking of Aldi, I don't know if there's a name-brand they are spoofing, but their Spicy Dill potato chips have gotten compliments and inquiries literally every single time I've served them. Despite what you might think, they are actually spicy. They are there this week, grab a few bags now!

this year they finally got around to exploring the other end of the Stuf spectrum by introducing Thins

Actually 2015, according to Wikipedia's looooong List of Oreo varieties.

Thins are the best. If they made the outside flat rather than stamped with the Oreo logo, I think they could easily sell at a fancy Upper East Side bakery for $1.50 each.

Me! I'm pretty crunch too. I cook vegetarian meals every day from scratch. I give my child a hot and sour taki in his lunch every day too, he loves it. Goes down nice next to his carrots or cucumbers. We've known for about 500 years that it's the dose that makes the poison, and none of this is going to be a problem if you have a good diet.

And yeah, mint oreo thins are my preferred cookie snack. Enough chocolate and mint to scratch the itch, and I can have enough discrete cookies without it suddenly being, like, 1400 calories of cookies in one sitting.

They're also close enough to Thin Mints to keep the girl scouts at bay.

Asian supermarkets have potato chips flavors you won't find anywhere else.The one I remember right now, relatively tame since my memory refuses to retain the more outré offerings, is fried crayfish flavored Lays.

And since Superbowl season has rolled back around, my idea for a new snack is a corkscrew shaped corn chip about 1/2" in diameter and 1.5-2" long that you could screw down into a multi-layer dip and pull out a neat and complete full stratigraphic sample with — called 'Drills', of course.

There was no blurb about it, but pictured in the list of snack food abominations is a bag of Trader Joe's Snacky Clusters, an unholy marriage of pretzel, corn chip, and potato chip, all rolled in chocolate and distilled into vaguely nugget-shaped snacking units. And they are GODDAMN MAGIC. I don't say this lightly. Our house had to institute a "write your name on your own bag of them, and woe betide the person who steps outside their snacking lane" policy about these things. Never have I seen a snack so perfectly engineered to make you eat the whole bag and then regret all the choices in life that brought you to this point.

Also, I am mystified why in the year of our lord 2025, you cannot buy either (a) just a big ol' tub of Oreo creme filling (you could just call it STUF TUB and sell it for $8. Nabisco, call me), or (b) Oreos based on In'N'Out burger conventions, where you specify the two dimensions of cookie numerically to know exactly what you're getting--regular Oreos are 2x1, Double Stuf are 2x2, Thins are .5x1, and so on. This would open up the possibility of Extreme Multiplier Oreos, like the creme-filling-lovers' 2x10, or the chocolate wafer aficionado's 4x1, or some really avant garde shit like the Club Sandwich Oreo (1x1x1x1x1).

How does this have Spicy Dill Pickle Goldfish (confusing, not bad, but also just kind of wrong) but not the (superior) Old Bay Goldfish, which should just become canon they’re so good?

I stress bought Dragon Sweet Chili Takis at the mini-mart at the retirement community we were moving my mother-in-law out of, and they were good but not mind blowing. Sort of like Zapp’s Voodoo seasoning mixed with barbecue and not quite enough heat.

Space Dunk Oreo’s weren’t Pop-Rock-y enough, but were also just weirdly sweet. If you let the Stuf kind of melt in your mouth they were almost fun, but it was too much work for too little reward.

Korean-Style Sweet & Spicy Chili Ruffle’s were like a mix of ketchup, barbecue sauce, and a vague hint of hot pepper. Bourbon BBQ Pringles just tasted like regular BBQ Pringles. And I would buy All Dressed Pringles if I saw them.

I have never seen any of those Funyun innovations and I am intrigued and horrified in equal measure.

I'm puzzled by the inclusion of the Unique Brand (original and Extra Dark) pretzels. I've been buying them in my market since well before the pandemic, perhaps for seven or eight years now. There are other versions, too. Similarly, the Jumbo Reese's Peanut Butter Cups have been around for a long time, probably more than a decade.

(Warning: if you eat the Reese's Chocolate Lava Big Cup, eat it over a napkin. The chocolate "lava" drips all over!)

I recently bought the Cinnamon Cheerio's Protein cereal when I couldn't find my usual cereal anywhere. It's...fine.
