A quick run to Target and Wal-Mart led to some early Halloween finds for my annual look at Halloween food packaging. More on this later…

Nice 2012 Halloween Crunch! I wish they’d go back to making the Cap’n dress up like monsters (The Mummy and Werewolf of past years were great and I really wanted to see a Creature from the Black Lagoon variation…), but I’ll take what I can get. I presume you found that at Wal-Mart?
Brian says
Yep, the Cap’n was discovered at Wal-Mart and the rest was Target.

Dang it! You found that Batman figure i been on the hunt for along with the Lego Ghost thats out there. Well i guess it’s another trip to Target for me with the wife tomorrow. : )
Brian says
I found that figure in the halloween candy section of all places. They had a small selection of toys and those Batman figures were in the mix. I saw those lego Ghost sets too but didn’t pick one up. I’ll probably get one eventually.

Nice to see classic Halloween Oreos hiding in the back there.
I still love you, my little orange darlings! Don’t worry, those fancy Candy Corn Oreos will disappear as soon as everyone comes to their senses and realizes they suck, then you can get back to reigning supreme as the definitive store-bought Halloween cookie.
Brian says
I do love that blue package design on the “regular” Oreos, but those candy corn Oreos are DELICIOUS.
Tommy says
Nice, I want that Crunch!
I saw that Batman at Target and almost got it. Is he articulated at all?
Brian says
I haven’t cracked it open yet, but it looks like his hips and shoulders will move.
Rondal says
Dang! I’ve seriously been to all three of our nearest Targets this week and can’t find anyone whose even heard of those Candy Corn Oreo’s! They must be mine!! >:D
Brian says
Our Targets have those Oreos on the end caps and at the registers. Selling like crazy! 😉
Yelinna says
There’s not just candy… there is a Batman figure!! Batman with candy, I like it!
Brian says
Halloween + Batman = 2 of my favorite things.

Wifey and I plan on coming on up to Laredo next month. NEED some halloween goodness!!!
Brian says
I can imagine you go all out on Halloween! 😉
Post some pics of the Cafe!

My Target still does not fully have Halloween stuff out. It’s frustrating! There are stores with Christmas merch already out. Why should those of us who love ghosties and ghoulies have such a short season? It’s discrimination, I tells ya!
(I’m probably suffering from a Frankenberry deficiency. I need to go lie down.) 🙂

Did you happen to see the blank vinyl Halloween figures from Color Blanks? My kids and I need to get a few.
Brian says
No, I haven’t seen those yet. !’ll keep an eye out for them though!
