Scoring & Verdict
Entenmann’s Pop’ems Orange Cream Glazed Donut Holes
Score: 8.75 / 10


Review
Gosh, I love these.
First, the mouthfeel is amazing: a light, moist, sugary glaze coats the outside, which houses an equally moist, dense, and mildly chewy donut hole. In a way, these feel slightly under-baked, almost even wet — nothing here is at all dry or crumbly; if you want a denser, more moist donut, this is for you.
The taste is clearly reminiscent of a creamsicle pop. It’s reasonably creamy and has a sugary orange taste. Nothing is punchy or sour here! Overall, however, it does lean towards a general sugary sweet side. Indeed, these are quite sweet, especially for a donut (or donut hole). They remind me of a very sweet, sugary-glazed donut with a milder creamsicle flavor sewn in. Likely too sweet to be refreshing, unfortunately, but definitely a cure for a sweet tooth.
Release Date
First released around June 2025, they returned a year later in June 2026. Found at Stop & Shop mid-July 2026.
Calbee Asian Thai Style Chips Yellow Curry
Score: 6 / 10

Review
They look and feel really seasoned — really, they absolutely coat your hands! Taste-wise, it tastes like traditional asian/indian spices. There is a subtle kick to that traditional curry flavor, alongside a hint of sweetness. If anything, these could have been even spicier. Other than that, these are more or less accurate to what they advertise themselves as–nothing is too punchy, either, which I like. Furthermore, these chips are reasonably crunchy and feel semi-thick.

Found at Ocean State Job Lot late July 2026.
Glico Pocky Peppermint
Score: 7 / 10

Review
Wow, for Pocky, these pack such a good, sweet peppermint flavor. It’s super creamy, rich, smooth, and not too punchy or toothpaste-like. It’s perfected, and with the light biscuit flavor from the Pocky itself–everything just works. Honestly, even if you don’t like peppermint, you might find these at least somewhat enjoyable!
Release Date
Released holiday 2024. Found at Ocean State Job Lot late July 2026.
Thai Coco Coconut Crispy Rolls Mango Flavor
Score: 5.5 / 10

Review
They smell tasty and mango-ee, but the taste is so, so much lighter. Honestly, what happened here? The flavor fell off a cliff! They come across as light and crispy, though not very fulfilling because they feel too thin. Coupled with the lack of bold flavor and sweetness, it’s just a very mediocre, middling tropical-biscuit flavor.
Release Date
I’m unsure of a release date. Found at Ocean State Job Lot late July 2026.
Thai Coco Coconut Crispy Rolls Chocolate Flavor
Score: 5.75 / 10

Review
First, I love the smell of these—a mildly sweet mix of milk chocolate and coconut. Taste-wise, it’s exactly that, though, I did expect something sweeter. Neither flavor is super pronounced, and honestly, this treat comes across as duller than it ought to be. Nonetheless, the coconut and chocolate flavors are there, but only somewhat. Compositionally, they sport a light, airy crunch that breaks apart instantly when you bite in, which I don’t find particularly satisfying.

Tiny Bites S’mores Waffle Cones
Score: 6.25 / 10

Review
Fairly large, completely filled waffle cones. The shell offers a light crunch, and the inside filling is noticeably soft. It has a soft chocolate top filling, and the rest of it is an even softer white filling. Together, it’s mostly chocolatey, with an odd, artificial background flavor. Is that supposed to be a marshmallow? It’s like a weird vanilla marshmallow extract taste… I’m honestly not sure. It almost has a sharp, sweet bitterness, like it was flavored with a non-sugar sweetener. Anyway, these cones are just okay — the mouthfeel is good, but the flavor is off.
Release Date
I’m unsure of a release date. Found at Dollar Tree late July 2026.
Brim’s Pumpkin Spice Twists
Score: 4.75 / 10

Review
It’s like they tried to mix plain corn with an odd pumpkin spice flavor. What you get is a dry, dull-tasting mix of both: a cheap corn-chip taste and light pumpkin spice. At the very least, they’re reasonably crunchy and not too hard. It’s just that the flavor and the dryness are such a weird mix that turns me off.
Release Date
While I’m unsure of a release date, they’ve been spotted by reviewers in July 2026. Found at Ocean State Job Lot late July 2026.
Popcornopolis Unicorn Popcorn Lemon & Berry
Score: 5.75 / 10

Review
These are so pretty! They’re super colorful and have a generous amount of solidified glaze! You can feel it too; they’re smooth and biting in, offering a nice, creamy crunch akin to caramelized popcorn. Taste-wise, it’s mostly sugary sweet, with a smidge of vanilla and artificial fruit. Basically, these are sugar-tasting glazed popcorns with an eating experience similar to caramelized popcorn; don’t expect much else! Honestly, a bit boring.
Release Date
While I’m unsure of a release date, they’ve been around since 2019. Found at Dollar Tree late July 2026.
Redondo Cookies & Creme Flavored Creme Wafers
Score: 7.75 / 10

Review
Just as it looks–a dark wafer with a white-ish dark filling as if the cream was mixed with dark cookies. It sports a fairly sweet, darker cookie-wafer-and-cream flavor. It’s exceptionally creamy because the inside is so soft; it’s almost like frosting (were mine partially melted?). The wafer part is also soft and offers a nice, reasonably airy crunch. I love the uniqueness of it because, instead of white chocolate, it’s rich dark chocolate—and somehow it still tastes like cookies-and-cream.

Lil’ Dutch Creamsicle Creme Cookies
Score: 6.5 / 10

Review
Tastes just like a creamsicle in cookie form with a buttery cookie twist! It has that iconic, mildly sweet, creamy orange taste from the inner orange frosting, and the cookie adds even more by providing a light butteriness in the background and toning down some of the sweetness. If anything, these could be a hair sweeter and offer a bit more frosting, but I’m nitpicking.
The cookie as a whole offers a light crunch; it’s not hard and doesn’t feel too cheap either. In milk, they soften very quickly and retain much of their flavor — in my opinion, they’re equally good either way–just eat them fast if you decide to dip them!
Release Date
Creamsicle, Churro, and Strawberry Lil’ Dutch creme cookies were likely released around mid-2025. Found at Dollar Tree late July 2026.
Lil’ Dutch Churro Creme Cookies
Score: 5.25 / 10

Review
Churro? Where? These are more or less buttery, vanilla-tasting cookies, with just a hint of cinnamon. They’re pretty good cookies still and don’t feel super cheap; it’s just that they don’t taste anywhere close to what they’re advertised as.
The cream filling is supposed to carry the churro flavor, but it’s too light, and there’s simply not enough to balance out the buttery cookie taste. In milk, they do get soggy very quickly, which I don’t mind; I like soggy cookies, and the flavor remains the same. Overall, too plain, generic, and not enough cream.
Release Date
