I'm probably going to be doing the first challenge either tomorrow or Tuesday, so it's not too late to get suggestions in for that, but I've already started narrowing down the list of items that I'll try to find.
Show Content
Probably out- A single onion (Any generic produce item is easy to find)
- Manager's car keys (Sadly this isn't food, nor am I in Jak and DaxterNaruto and Pikachu)
- All the Kinder Surprise stuff (I know exactly where these are. Except for the legal one, but I can't head out of the country at the moment)
- Kimchi (I know where the kimchi is, and it looks like it doesn't ever really expire, and even if it did, it couldn't be sold)
- Evil food (Can food ever really be evil? I don't think this can be covered in only thirty minutes)
- Sega Genesis (This isn't food)
- Not Pockets (The name brand version doesn't exist, the generic version is ridiculously easy to find)
- True Love (Unless this is true...)
- Overwatch Body Pillow (BAD A52)
- Pickled eyeballs (Eww...)
- Pickles outside of a jar in the produce section (Yep. They have loose pickles. The garlic ones are delicious. Heck, if I find enough of the stuff, I might buy myself one of these to celebrate)
- Exceptional tallow roast (They don't have hot food, sadly)
Anything not listed in here is still possible for the first attempt, but even if it's not used then, were I to do this again, they'd still be up for consideration. But as I said before, the list is by no means finalised at this moment, so keep suggesting wonderful (or horrible) foods for me to try and find.

You know, I actually went out about a month ago and did the first run, I should finally get around to writing up about the experience. Anything after the 3.17 pounds of meat was sadly not up for consideration for this run, as I already had my list.
Bees
Show Content
Spoiler
Ha ha ha, very funny.
Cactus Pear
Show Content
Spoiler
Right with all the other produce, not that hard to find.
Expensive water (as defined by being >$4.99)
Show Content
Spoiler
OVER SEVEN DOLLARS? And for some reason, they were completely sold out.
Food with exactly 1 Calorie
Show Content
SpoilerA quick search after the fact shows that Pepsi One was discontinued over two years ago. And I spent like four minutes searching for it.
Gluten-free pita
Show Content
Spoiler
There were like seventeen-billion pitas. I spent five minutes trying to see if any of them specifically said 'gluten-free' before just cutting my losses with any pita whatsoever.
Meyer Lemons
Show Content
SpoilerApparently this store sells them, but it could just be at the other location. Oh well.
Monosodium glutamate
Show Content
SpoilerLet's be honest, WHAT WAS I THINKING INCLUDING THIS IN MY LIST???
Peanut butter and jelly in the same jar
Show Content
Spoiler
They also had it with grape jelly.
Pickled Eggs
Show Content
SpoilerI didn't get around to searching for this until I had three minutes remaining. I'm fairly certain that they are somewhere, it's just I had no clue where to begin and no time to do it.
Santa
Show Content
Spoiler
Just over a minute in, I find a cannister of biscuits with his face on it.
Tzatziki sauce
Show Content
Spoiler
Well, I didn't find it exactly, but this make-your-own gyros kit has it, so it has to be in here, no?
Utz cheese balls
Show Content
Spoiler
I live in the midwest. Of course there's going to be Utz cheese balls here.
FINAL SCORE:
Show Content
Spoiler6.5/12
What I learned from this:
I need better time management, and I need to NOT PICK FOODS THAT WOULD NEVER SHOW UP.
Also, I did a test run with items which I knew where they were, just to see if it would work.
Show Content
SpoilerKimchi
Kinder Surprise Eggs
Not PocketsTM (aka Bread)
Individual pickles in the produce section
It took me four minutes to find all these. And that's why they weren't in the actual search.
So, with all that, guess who's probably going to do this again with items that I either didn't get around to including the first time, were offered up after I did it, or if I KNOW IT'S THERE AND I SWEAR I'M GOING TO FIND THOSE PICKLED EGGS IF IT KILLS ME.
