I like the Darbo lingonberry jams and sauces, imported from Austria, which I can find at Polish grocery stores in Ontario. They’re also available through Amazon and some other vendors online.

That’s a deal. I think Hungryroot sells that brand.

None of the holiday Pepperidge Farms cookies were at my Target. Probably a good thing. Because…
The Girl Scouts were in front of my post office this morning, so 2 boxes of Thin Mints were purchased and immediately stashed in the downstairs freezer, and I also bought 1 each of these new flavors. I will try one of each cookie after dinner.

OK, I tried two of each. The Adventurefuls were not really chocolatey, caramelly, or sea salty.
The Toast-Yays were definitely more flavorful. Slight hint of maple in the icing, which makes sense if they’re patterned after French Toast.
Won’t buy either again, but they’ll take care of any sweets craving I might get, and I supported the Girl Scouts, so there’s that.
Plus there are 2 boxes of Thin Mints in the freezer.

This is like the Xmas equivalent of Girl Scout cookies. I’d like to try them all!

Interesting they are still selling cookies this late in the year. I hope they haven’t expired!
I’ve had these Carando meatballs and they are very good, but massively overpriced at my grocery store. Something like $9 per pound, when I can get ground beef and decent Italian sausage for $5 or less. The convenience factor is nice though. If you can get them on sale, grab a package!

Thanks for letting me know! My PIC is a big fan of meatballs, and I def don’t make them often enough (in his opinion).

My understanding is that troops in different areas of the country have staggered selling times so as not to overwhelm the bakeries who make the cookies. The GS HQ says " Girl Scout Cookie season is recognized nationally from January through April, but local timing varies."
And the cookies were just fine, and not stale at all.

I was surprised how nice and tart the Delmonte passionfruit juice in a tetrapak was recently. It isn’t cut with grape juice like some brands.

No worries. I have enough junk food in my house to last awhile.

Has nobody tried the d’Artagnan bacon? I’m surprised!
I still have a pound and a half of Nueske’s triple thick to work through. But, if someone else tries it, I hope they chime in!

Incidentally we almost ordered more bacon from Nueske’s, but we’re headed to Philly next week where a lot of food shopping will take place - likely including DiBruno’s bacon 
We did order their smoked duck breast for the holidays, tho >swoon<

Only their uncured duck bacon.
Fabulous stuff. Can’t find anymore.
