Walmart is selling a full Thanksgiving meal for $35
October 29th, 2026 under Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

Everything is so expensive these days that it is hard to find anything in a grocery store to be thankful for this year. And Walmart wants to change that. So the big-box store is selling a Thanksgiving dinner kit for ten for just $35.

The holiday basket comes with 26 items (17 unique products), which includes 18% more items and is 12% cheaper than last year.

  • The centerpiece: Butterball turkey, priced at just 97 cents per pound – the same price as last year.
  • Classic sides: Stove Top stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean casserole made with trusted brands like Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup, and warm dinner rolls.
  • More holiday favorites: Sweet potato casserole with Jet Puffed mini marshmallows and corn casserole made with “JIFFY” corn muffin mix.
  • A sweet finish: Pumpkin pie with whipped topping.

“The Holiday Meal Basket has become one of our favorite traditions at Walmart. It brings our purpose to life in such a meaningful way by helping families make the holidays special without stretching their budgets,” said David Guggina, president and CEO, Walmart U.S. “This year, our Holiday Meal Basket brings even more food to the table for just $35, while making it easier for customers to plan, shop, and celebrate in ways that work for them.”

I don’t cook; that is what my framily is for, but I think it is a great idea. So much so that I am ordering this kit so they can cook it for me…and for them too, I guess.

The holiday basket is available to order online or in stores between now and December 24th.

Jimmy Johns is selling pickle plushie keychains
October 21st, 2026 under Fast Food. [ Comments: 1 ]

I don’t know about you, but it seems like fast-food restaurants like McDonald’s, Jack in the Box, and Burger King are selling toys with some meals. Now Jimmy John’s is joining the trend.

Starting October 27th, when you order the Triple Pickle Meal, you can get one of five adorable Pickle Pals plush keychains: Lulu, J.J., Big John, Vito, and the ultra-rare Tom.

What is a Pickle Meal? Choose from six Picklewich subs: the Vito® Picklewich (salami and capocollo), Turkey Picklewich, Ham Picklewich, Roast Beef Picklewich, Tuna Picklewich, and Veggie Picklewich. You also get Pickle-flavored Jimmy Chips and a Pickle Pal.

“The return of the Jimmy John’s Picklewich is something pickle lovers look forward to all year, so we wanted to bring it back in a way that gives fans even more to enjoy,” said Suzanne DeRouchie, Vice President of Integrated Marketing Communications at Jimmy John’s. “Our new Pickle Pals add a playful element of surprise to the Triple Pickle, with five characters to collect. You never know which one you’ll get until you open the bag, making every Triple Pickle meal a little more fun and giving fans a reason to keep coming back to collect them all.”

Since I love pickles, I will be ordering that meal until I get them all or they run out of the ones I don’t have! Are you as pickled green as I am over this news, or am I the only one with a pickle problem?

Papa John’s is selling a pumpkin pizza
October 19th, 2026 under Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

If you thought that Tombstone’s Candy Corn pizza was going to be the most terrifying pizza this Halloween season, you would be wrong. Papa John’s topped it with a Pumpkin Pizza.

Actually, the Jack-o’-Lantern Pizza is not scary. In fact, it is really cute. That is because the thin crust pizza is shaped like a pumpkin with a pepperoni smile and pepperoni eyes topped with black olives. To keep its shape, the pizza restaurant will not slice it for you. Therefore, you will have to use a pumpkin-carving knife to slice it.

The special pizza is available until November 1st in the United States and Canada.

Is this what Cat in the Hat would taste like?
October 16th, 2026 under Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

Cat in the Hat is getting a new movie next month. In honor of that, Cold Stone Creamery created a sundae for us to enjoy.

However, it doesn’t taste like I thought it would. Not that I know what I thought it would taste like, but not this. So, what does it taste like? It is made with Cotton Candy Ice Cream, OREO® Cookies, The Cat’s Confetti Sprinkles, and Whipped Topping,

Does that sound purrfect to you?

The Cat in the Hat will trick moviegoers starting on November 6th.

Would you eat a chicken wing flavored with Sour Patch Kids?
October 13th, 2026 under Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

I am a daring person. Therefore, I am willing to try new things. However, I am not sure I am brave enough to try this Wingstop concoction.

The wings restaurant teamed up with Sour Patch Kids for a limited-edition flavor. The Wicked Punch sauce features a mischievous Sour then Sweet Redberry glaze finished with candy Bitz.

“Candy on wings? We know exactly what you’re thinking. But no, seriously, it has no business being this good,” said Michael Skipworth, President and CEO of Wingstop. “SOUR PATCH KIDS Wicked Punch wings bring sour and sweet together in a way only Wingstop can. It may sound unexpected, but one bite is all it takes to understand why this one is a treat.”

The treat is available to Club Wingstop members starting October 23rd, and to everyone else from October 27th to November 5th.

Are you going to try it?
