3. McDonald's Holiday Pie

We've got respect for the Mickey D's McRib, but the holiday pie sounds like the worst idea since black highlighters. A sugar cookie-like piecrust - with rainbow sprinkles, because, duh - encloses a vanilla custard filling to make-up the handheld pie. To which we say, I'd rather have a fruitcake.

2. Pinnacle Pumpkin Pie Vodka

We could take this opportunity to point out that liquors with flavors that could appeal to a five-year old are, in general, an abomination - but we won't. Suffice it to say that the only thing this stuff is good for is for getting drunk enough to stand your Great Aunt Betha's nagging.

1. Pop-Tarts Gingerbread

Kellog's
We feel gingerbread is the most overlooked of all the holiday flavors, far too often over shadowed by the profusion of pumpkin and peppermint. If you're eating a Pop Tart to start the day, you're already guaranteed a short-lived sugar rush. Might as well infuse a little holiday cheer into the soon-to-follow energy crash.
