Shopping at Staples was frustrating yesterday. Traffic is picking up as kids return to school. It’s back to the grind. Just think of the poor teachers who have to put up with your brats. The future is bright! Coffee sales should be through the roof for the education sector.
Linus just ate too many pumpkin spice products in 2019.
Is this the year of the pumpkin? Many companies are rolling out some sort of pumpkin-flavored product of limited editions of their popular products. Here are the top 30 products out in the market.
The wheels are coming off the pumpkin spice bandwagon. Hormel, the manufacturer of SPAM, is making for a limited time a pumpkin spice version of SPAM. It will be available as of September 23rd. You can only buy exclusively at Walmart and online at spam.com.
You have to go to California or Nevada if you want to dine at Eggslut. Imagine a brioche bun loaded with eggs instead of meat. The restaurant’s signature dish is “The Slut”, a coddled egg on pureed potatoes. Once you try Eggslut, you will never go back to regular burgers. The egg is going beyond the breakfast table and taking the spotlight throughout the whole day.
Of course, Tony the Tiger will say Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes Pumpkin Spice tastes great. But honestly, seems there is an overkill when Autumn rolls around and every company wants to create some form of pumpkin flavor for their well-known brand. Sorry Tony, I will pass.
eyond Meatball Marinara from Subway will be available at 685 participating restaurants in the US and Canada. Seems everybody is climbing aboard the meatless train. Better buy some Beyond Meat stock.

Make room for banana milk, the new kid on the block. I do not know how one goes about milking a banana. However, the alt-milk industry is milking the dairy farmers as an alternative for lactose-intolerant consumers. The grocery milk section is getting crowded with the likes of soy milk, nut milk, pea milk, and oat milk.
I am at a loss for words but yet intrigued by French’s mustard ice-cream. Coohaus Ice Cream and French’s have partnered to bring this unlikely ice-cream flavor. Too bad it is only offered in Los Angles, New York City, and the Hamptons. The good folks of French’s have an online recipe if you are not in the vicinity of these cities.

What a perfect place to take your significant other or girlfriend. You can now rent Oscar Mayer’s Wienermobile for a night. Please, no weiner jokes
Baby Shark is a popular YouTube video has accumulated 3 billion views and counting. The cereal business needs to jump-start their sluggish sales and why not net the latest internet sensation Baby Shark from PINKFONG. Kellogg’s is cashing in on the popularity of this little ditty. The cereal is exclusive to Walmart and Sam’s Club. How apropos for shark week! Great marketing! Too bad it comes out on August 17th at Sam’s Club and mid-September at Walmart.
