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!!!
