Everyone’s got their favorite flavor of Mrs. T’s Pierogies.
Maybe you’re a purist and go with the classic Cheddar or Onion. Or do you like something spicy, the jalapeno sharp cheddar perhaps? Maybe it’s the varieties that jumped the shark on pierogies that does it for you? Feta and Spinach or Garlic Parmesan, anyone?

BPA-free but it failed in a focus group.

Graffiti Highway
No worries about the filling being warm in these.
Costas Club Sandwiches
The folks at Ateeco need to re-think this one in File 13.
Lebanon Bologna
Eastern European meets Pennsylvania Dutch — why not? Great with chips sprinkled on top.
