The best instant pudding mix is creamy, comforting, and perfectly sweet. It should have a velvety texture that melts in your mouth, and a flavor that passes for homemade—and if it doesn’t, well, as long as it’s still undeniably delicious, that’s okay, too. Sometimes, the best pudding mix tastes like it came from a box, and that’s exactly what you want as you’re zonked out on pain meds post-dental procedure, craving something soft, nostalgic, and effortless.

Credit: Merc / Blue Bell The best Blue Bell flavors are rich, decadently creamy, and worthy of their infamous half-gallon tubs. They should taste comforting, homemade, and extremely satisfying—if the flavor can’t justify the commitment of freezer space and calories, it’s simply not worth it.

Now that we’re entering hot-beverage season, it seems like the perfect time to point out that World Market also has an unexpectedly wide selection of interesting and unusual teas.

Sorry, I thought that was gonna sound a lot cooler. But what I’m getting at is that we have here with Trader Joe’s new Pink Lady Apple Chips is a solid seasonal snack.
