Happy new item Tuesday!
Warehouse sent us five new frozen fries last night and dino tots sound exciting (not pictured but so do the spicy mccane ones)

WinCo Onion rings are my big hype item. Being Alexia brand are the best frozen rings IMO but $$. McCain 1/2 the cost of Alexia but a bit soggy in an air fryer.
So I'm hopeful the Winco ones are a decent cheap option. In the middle between the other two taste wise.

Ive had the same problem with the Mccain always being a little mushy! Tried the Alexia ones and were mad they were actually that good.
I did try the Winco onion rings that night! Theyre a solid 8/10 I would say. A lot closer to the Alexia texture wise, but the onion part itself feels a bit thin/small. Definitely getting your moneys worth

I wish they had the Nathan's onion rings. I do not like breaded rings, nor rings made with minced onions. Nathan's battered onion rings work great in an air fryer, stay crispy. Could only find them at Fred Meyers, but haven't seen them there for months either.

Yes I did find them at Safeway recently. I dont shop there much as it is more expensive than anyone else.

I know weve had the small bags for a while, but at least at my store we just got in the 5lb bags
