This collaboration is one we can't wait to get our hands on! Skippy Peanut Butter and Girl Scout Cookie are coming together for delicious bite-sized snacking. According to the press release, there will be three new variations of the Skippy P.B. Bites.

These three new flavors are Girl Scout Cookie inspired.  The bites are portable and poppable.  And the experience will be like taking the Girl Scout Cookie and dipping them in Skippy peanut butter.

These bite-size snacks will come in Coconut Caramel, Chocolate Peanut Butter, and Adventurefuls. Existing flavors of the P.B. Bites include Double Peanut Butter, Graham Cracker, and Pretzel. Each bite has a crunchy center covered in soft, non-sticky peanut butter coating.  These are perfect for on-the-go snacking.

Flavors:

  • Coconut Caramel: This will feature a chocolatey cookie center covered in Skippy peanut butter and have notes of toasted coconut and caramel and feature real toasted coconut flakes.
  • Chocolate Peanut Butter: This will have a vanilla cookie center wrapped in peanut butter and rolled in milk chocolate.
  • Adventurefuls: Based on the Adventureful cookie, this will have a chocolate cookie center, wrapped in peanut butter with hints of caramel. It will be tossed with sea salt and brownie dust.

There's still some time before your Girl Scout Cookies come out... this will be the perfect way to get your fix.  And Kelsey Tynan, Skippy's senior brand manager says the delicious treat will "shine a spotlight on this exceptional organization that powers life-changing experiences for girls."

Weird Things People In The CSRA Found In Their Halloween Bags

You're not going to believe what some people in the CSRA have found in their Halloween bags. It's not always candy that you get when you go trick or treating. Of course most people do give out candy, but some people go a more unconventional route. Maybe they don't want to be the same as everyone else, or maybe they forgot to buy candy, now they're scrambling last minute.

Either way, it makes for some pretty entertaining stories. We started talking about it this morning. I said that I'll never forget when I was a kid, I got change one year in my trick or treat bag. Someone literally had a coffee can full of change, and they were giving out handfuls of change instead of candy.

We've also heard about people giving out toothbrushes or fruit on Halloween. C'mon, don't do the kids dirty that way! Kids want candy on Halloween. That's why its called trick or treat, not trick or fruit, or trick or toothbrush!

As usual, we got some really great stories from y'all. One called said he got Krystal burgers one year. Another lady said she got shoes. These are true stories, we're not making these up. If you want to see all of the comments that we got, just click on the Wake Up Krew Facebook page. You'll find it here

These are real things people in the CSRA found in their trick or treat bags on Halloween.

A potato

A lady told us that her kid got a potato last year. What are we supposed to do with that? put it in the microwave for 10 minutes and then cover it with butter and cheese?!

At least this is better than a potato. The kid agreed, his mom said he wanted to eat them as soon as they got home!

A Popsicle

It wasn't frozen of course. It was one of those ones thats just a bag of juice until you freeze it. So basically this person got a small bag of juice. Happy Halloween...I guess

A miniature loaf of bread? Isn't that a roll? Was someone out here handing out rolls for Halloween? What a weirdo.

Rubber Gloves

Yes, a lady said that she got rubber gloves in her Halloween bag one year. She said they didn't go back to that neighborhood after that, yeah I don't blame you! Handing our rubber gloves is pretty strange.
