No doubt Tillamook knows how to do it right 
I take it you haven’t tried that version of their ice cream sammiches?

it really is too salty in most mass produced items I have tried.
We do like dark chocolate- covered salt caramels from Soma Chocolate Maker, Fraktals, and Purdy’s in Canada.
The Ghirardelli salt caramel squares are too salty for us.
I avoid most salt caramel things lately.
I think I saw a Salt Caramel Bailey’s Irish Cream, as well as a Pumpkin Pie Spice Bailey’s.
The OG doesn’t need any improvements.

I have had perfectly salted caramel ice cream, and some that is lacking. I’ve never had too salty salted caramel, but I don’t care for overly sweet stuff — I find that salt gives it a nice balance.
It’s also not an ingredient I use or order a lot.

I sampled truffle gouda at our local supermarket and bought a chunk. I’m completely obsessed. With a bit of fig jam on a Carr’s cracker this is my ideal cheese.
I’m curious to try the other varieties.

See if you can find Sottocenere — it was the first truffled cheese available near me (and before they started putting truffles in seemingly everything), and I still prefer it to any other. Back then it was $20/lb which was very splurgy for me!

That looks fabulous! I will see if our local supermarket has it. They have a great cheese section.
Hope you like it!
I picked up a new-to-me green Sichuan peppercorn oil in Chinatown. Supposed to be more intense and numbing, and fresher in flavor, so I’m looking forward to trying them in some salads.

If you like German lebkuchen, nuts and marzipan, this is a nice lebkuchen assortment.
This is the 2nd year I’ve bought it.
Very fresh fancy lebkuchen inside.
Fancy as in chocolate-coated, or different fillings, rather than just lebkuchen with a glaze.
Quite a few contain nuts or marzipan.
