File this under, I can’t believe someone did not think of this earlier.
Back in April, Sabrina Carpenter released her chart-topping single, Espresso, that became the song of the summer. So, you would think one of the coffee or donut shops would have released a coffee drink with her before now. But they didn’t.
Dunkin’ announced today that they teamed up with the singer for a drink! The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is freshly hand-shaken behind the counter in a dedicated espresso shaker. The drink brings bold espresso, creamy oat milk, and brown sugar notes in a smooth, frothy sip, ready to energize guests’ daily routine in the new year.
“When we first dreamed up Sabrina’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso at Dunkin’, it had to be more than another delicious drink on the menu — we wanted to bring some levity to guests’ everyday coffee order,” said Jill McVicar Nelson, Chief Marketing Officer at Dunkin’. “Working with one of America’s most beloved pop stars, Sabrina Carpenter, adds a spirited, fresh energy that perfectly aligns with Dunkin’s love of bold taste and good-natured fun. Through our new ad campaign, we’re showing guests that their new drink order can be both delicious and a wink at embracing life’s lighter side — exactly what Dunkin’ is all about.”
I betcha that Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, and Krispy Kreme are kicking themselves for not thinking of this earlier.
The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is available to order starting tomorrow.
Chicken nuggets are available at fast food chicken restaurants and burger joints. On December 19th, they will also be available at Taco Bell.
However, they won’t be like those other places. Taco Bell’s Crispy Chicken Nuggets use crunchy tortilla chips for breading.
“As the inventors of Nacho Fries, Taco Bell is fully aware that reinventing an American classic with a Taco Bell twist is a responsibility we don’t take lightly. But in a world dominated by chicken cravings, it was time to show the world how Taco Bell does chicken nuggets – unexpected and undeniably bold,” said Taco Bell’s Chief Marketing Officer, Taylor Montgomery. “The Crispy Chicken Nuggets deliver a crispier, more flavorful nugget experience, and combined with the Hidden Valley™ Fire Ranch Sauce, we hope it will test people’s devotion to their favorite nuggets.”
What are chicken nuggets without dipping sauce? So, we can choose from three different sauces.
Hidden Valley™ Fire Ranch Sauce: Taco Bell’s first-ever ranch partnership which blends two iconic flavors: Taco Bell Fire Sauce and Hidden Valley Ranch.
Bell Sauce: The all-new Bell Sauce offers a familiar, rich, creamy and tangy signature blend with subtle chili notes crafted with tomatoes, red chiles, and garlic.
Jalapeño Honey Mustard: Rounding out the trio is the Jalapeño Honey Mustard that fuses sweet and heat, featuring honey mustard with a kick of jalapeño.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Taco Bell on the new Hidden Valley™ Fire Ranch Sauce, combining the bold flavors of Hidden Valley Ranch with Taco Bell’s signature heat” said CC Ciafone, Marketing Director at Hidden Valley Ranch. “Ranch and chicken nuggets are an iconic pairing, so it just made sense to create a ranch perfectly designed for Taco Bell’s unique twist on nuggets.”
I can’t wait to twist Taco Bell’s nuggets in those sauces. Christmas is coming early for me! And you can gift me $3.99 to buy 5-piece nuggests.

A lot of houses smell like pine trees during this time of the year. But what if you could have it have the aroma of Kentucky Fried Chicken?
Now, you can. KFC teamed up with Homesick.com to release two candles and a car air freshener that smells like the chicken giant.
Bucket of Chicken Candle: Inspired byKFC’ss Original Recipe®, the””Bucket of Chicke”” candle excites the senses in a familiar way, with top notes of chicken and browned flour, paired with peppercorn and celery, rounded out with base notes of oregano, sage, and garlic, delivering a rich, irresistible scent explosion that embodies the KFC experience.
Buttery Biscuit Candle: With the rich, mouthwatering aroma of KFC’s famous biscuits, golden honey and baked flour greet you in the top notes, with hints of caramel, butter, and salt in the middle, finishing with a warm base of buttermilk and toasted vanilla for a cozy, bakery-fresh scent.
Bucket of Chicken Car Freshener: In addition to the candles, the collection includes a “Bucket of Chicke” car freshener, bringing the savory, crave-worthy scent of KFC’s signature fried chicken to your daily drive.
I think the air freshener is dangerous. Because if your car smells like KFC, you are going to want to eat it. After a while, your stomach will get bigger, and your wallet will get smaller.
Last week, I was talking to a friend, and I told him that I can’t believe McDonald’s didn’t do the McRib this year. Yes, my conversations are really that boring.
Anyways, he told me that he heard it was coming back soon. This morning, I got a text confirming that it is coming back on December 3rd.
“The McRib is more than a sandwich – it’s a part of culture, it’s a legend, it’s an event,” said Tariq Hassan, Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer at McDonald’s. “McRib SZN is a holiday unto itself, so we wanted to embrace that spirit and give fans an even bigger way to celebrate this year with A Whole Lotta McRib Sauce.”
That’s right. This year, McDonald’s is selling a half gallon of A Whole Lotta McRib Sauce for $19.99. However, there is a catch. It is only available on November 25th and while supplies last. So, if you want one, which I do, then set your alarms to go off at 10a on Monday. Actually, don’t because you might buy the last jug before I get mine. So don’t tell anyone about this.
