Krispy kreme
Ice cream with add ins, like ben and jerrys has. With chunks of stuff swirled in, like strawberry cheesecake, pretzels and chocolate, etc not just some caramel or fudge drizzle
Reeses pb cups!!! (Yes I know theyve released a vegan version, but its impossible to find anywhere near monsey. I searched, cant order online, cant order through hershey website, and its not available in any store within 15 miles of me)

If you have family in Lakewood that comes in to Monsey, you can ask them to get you the vegan Reese’s-from NPGS, Kosher Village, and probably lots of other stores. Be aware though-they’re $3.00 for 2 cups. (Npgs did have on sale once recently for $2.)

Bubble tea
Starbucks full menu
Flamin hot cheetos
Reese’s peanut butter cups
Bacon & pepperoni

One huge thing is also convenience. Having kosher food options all over and not ridiculous prices…

CY hydrolyzed milk baby formula. We used cholov stam but it’s really annoying to wash the bottles separately, etc.

Kosher milk bank (there is one, but their supply is low/nonexistent. And gemachs don’t have the same quality controls.)

My SIL were just in Argentina where there is a kosher McDonald's. They said it tasted like very cheap takeout food. I don't think we are missing out on much.

I personally don’t like the McDonald’s, but there aren’t any fast food places there, if you want to even call that fast food. The fries are the best though.

It's weird that I can't seem to find shredded monterray jack cheese. We have monterray jack but not preshredded for nachos/quesadillas/etc. If you eat chalav stam the mini bite sized pop tarts actually have hashgaha. I would love to see frozen tamales andconvenience foods.

Costco online or locally? Where do you live?

If in the store, what area?

In store, in freezer section. I haven't checked my store yet, but I heard it's already in a lot of stores.

The CVS in Albany carries them. Maybe reach out to CVS in Monsey and see if they can order a case?

Trader Joe’s has ‘peanut butter’ cups made with sunflower seeds that are yum! Pareve. And much cheaper than the vegan Reese’s.

Osem owned by Nestle a General Mills partner produces the General Mills Bugles brand in Israel only with a hechsher mehadrin. As is common with all such brands like Coke, Pepsi, Doritos, some ingredients made be replaced in order to be kosher lemehadrin.
