From the November 19, 2012, USA Today "Visions of...peppermint chips?" by Bruce Horowitz.
I always like holiday goodies. After all, I am just finishing off some mighty good pumpkin ice cream from Halloween/fall. The article says that the food giants decide Americans want something else that they can't get the rest of the year.
Some of those:
Candycane, Cinnamon & Sugar, White Chocolate Peppermint and Pumpkin Pie Spice flavored Pringles
Gingerbread shakes from Red Robin (with a shot of Jim Beam for adults)
Gingerbread Cookie Sundae from Burger King
Chocolate truffle ChapStick
Baskin-Robbins has a $32.99 ice cream cake centerpiece that looks like a turkey with legs made of sugar cones.
Jones Cola had a turkey and gravy soda in 1994. This year, it has Gingerbread, Pear tree, Candy Cane and Sugar Plum.
You can get a Peppermint Mocha at Starbucks if you can afford it.
And, best of all, McDonald's is planning on bringing those McRIBS BACK!!!

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
