“Pinch of Grinch” Cookies Will Be on Shelves During the Holidays

I LOVE the type of holiday-themed food and drinks that only come out for special occasions. It doesn’t matter if it’s for Halloween, Easter, 4th of July, Valentine’s Day: if it’s fun and only available for a limited time, I’m all in.

And there have been a whole lot of these products to choose from this year. Of course, there is the now-annual tradition of the phenomenon known as the Pumpkin Spice Latte…what was life like before it?!?!

This year, we’ve also seen an IHOP menu full of spooky treats and a jet-black Icee drink at AMC Theaters in conjunction with the release of the new, animated version of The Addams Family. You know, fun stuff…

Well, I have some great news for you if you agree with me on this front: Pinch of Grinch cookies for the holiday season! The green sugar cookie dough is topped with a red heart. Yummy!

The packs from Nestlé Toll House cost $2.99 and will be on the shelves at Target, Kroger, and other select retailers.

Each package contains 20 pre-cut cookies, so all you have to do is pop these babies in the oven and you’ll be munching on these green treats in no time.

Hopefully, the Grinch himself approves as well…but you never know with that fella…

UPDATE: It seems that Nestlé recalled many of their products recently, so the Pinch of Grinch cookie dough is not currently in stores. So we’ll all just have to see how this situation plays out…

We’ll be waiting…

Genius Girl Scout Sells Jason ‘Momoa Samoas’ by the Case… And He Actually Responds

The Girl Scout program has long been known for instilling the spirit of entrepreneurship in young girls across the country, but every now and then it produces a true virtuoso.

Charlotte Holmberg a fifth-grade Girl Scout with an intense desire to be the best cookie salesman, and she also knows a good meme when she sees one.

Charlotte’s mom, who works in marketing, noticed a Girl Scouts meme that pointed out how ‘Samoas’ (aka ‘Caramel DeLites in some areas) sounds like Jason Momoa.

Believe me when I tell you… young Charlotte kept her eye on that prize and she did not disappoint. You see, in 2018, Charlotte sold over 2,000 boxes of GS cookies, earning herself some kickass badges, ample street cred, and the official title of Cookie CEO.

But that just wasn’t enough. Charlotte had gotten a taste for blood, and in 2019 she was thirsty for more. There’s no way she was gonna let an opportunity to exploit every hulking inch of Jason Momoa’s ridiculous body for personal gain pass her by.

So she and her mom formed a plan: they photoshopped Momoa onto a Samoas cover, printed new boxes, and promoted like hell. I’m sure it comes as no surprise to you that they started selling by the case.

“The moms are really excited and they’re all saying that they need them.”

Oh Charlotte… you innocent little thing, you.

When Jason Momoa caught wind of young Charlotte’s cookie-pushing scheme, he gave a shout out on the red carpet asking for his cut.

He reeeeally, reeeeally wants free cookies.

“I love Girl Scout cookies, I was waiting to get some free ones. I’d love some.”

But he’s not interested in Mamoa Samoas…

“Yeah, I just want my shortbread cookies! …and then you put those in the freezer and that’s the best way.”

Somebody please get Aquaman some shortbread, and send me all the Mamoa Samoas.
