Harry Potter works his magic on Krispy Kreme
August 14th, 2025 under Fast Food, Harry Potter, Krispy Kreme. [ Comments: none ]

Krispy Kreme has created four magical donuts from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter that people in Hogwarts and outside of it can enjoy. Well, everyone but Gellert Grindelwald and Lord Voldemort.

The four donuts are:

  • Gryffindor™ Doughnut – an unglazed shell doughnut filled with cookie butter flavored Kreme™, dipped in red icing and Biscoff® cookie crumble, topped with golden icing drizzles and the Gryffindor™ crest.
  • Slytherin™ Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut topped with chocolate and green buttercreme flavored swirls, chocolate cookie sugar blend, and the Slytherin™ crest.
  • Hufflepuff™ Doughnut – an unglazed shell doughnut filled with brown butter toffee flavored custard, dipped in golden yellow icing, and topped with black chocolate drizzle, cookie crunch, and the Hufflepuff™ crest.
  • Ravenclaw™ Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut dipped in blueberry flavored icing, topped with the Ravenclaw™ sprinkles and crest.

Shhh. Don’t tell anyone. But there is a fifth limited edition donut.

  • Sorting Hat™ Doughnut is a filled doughnut, with a mystery-colored Kreme™ representing one of the four Hogwarts Houses, then dipped in chocolate flavored icing, sprinkled with shimmering gold stars and gold sugar, and topped with the Sorting Hat™ piece. Take a bite to see which house you will reveal. The Sorting Hat doughnut is sold separately in a limited-edition specialty box, while supplies last.

“We’re channeling the beloved magic of Harry Potter™ and the Houses of Hogwarts™ for a collection that is truly bewitching,” said Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer for Krispy Kreme. “But the magic is fleeting, and so are these doughnuts, so don’t miss your chance to try them!”

The yummy treats will cast their spell on us starting on August 18th.

Oh, and you need a potion to wash them down with, and they have that too.

Golden Snitch™ Latte, a rich golden caramel toffee-inspired latte, topped with whipped cream, Biscoff® cookie crumble, and a sprinkle of golden shimmer sugar.

Would you drink a Heinz Ketchup fruit smoothie?
August 6th, 2025 under Fast Food, Heinz. [ Comments: none ]

For centuries, people have pondered whether a tomato is a fruit or a vegetable. And we still don’t know.

So, if it is a fruit, then why can’t we put it in smoothies? Well, we can. Actually, we don’t have to make it ourselves. Heinz Ketchup and Smoothie King have teamed up for The Heinz Tomato Ketchup Smoothie. The ice cold drink is ketchup mixed in with Acai sorbet, crisp apple juice, juicy strawberries, and tart raspberries.

“When we saw this cultural debate start gaining traction, we knew we had to weigh in with a resounding yes!” says Angie Madigan, Vice President of Elevation Marketing at Kraft Heinz. “The idea of a ketchup smoothie is provocative, and our top priority was landing a delicious tasting fruit smoothie with distinct yet well-balanced ketchup notes. The experts at Smoothie King helped make this dream a reality, and we’re absolutely thrilled with the final smoothie we created together. And like it does for any food – from burgers to fries to eggs – the slightly sweet and tangy taste of HEINZ Ketchup elevates this traditional fruit smoothie to new heights.”

The smoothie is available now for a limited time. If you try it, let me know how it is.

Dunkin’ and Kahlúa team up for a nighttime drink!
August 5th, 2025 under Dunkin', Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

In the mornings, we desire Dunkin’ coffee. However, they don’t have anything for us to drink at night. Well, that had changed because the donut shop teamed up with Kahlúa for a drink that is for adults only!

Kahlúa Dunkin’ Caramel Swirl Cream Liqueur is a rich, velvety, creamy liqueur that perfectly blends Dunkin’s iconic caramel swirl flavor with real cream, 100% Arabica coffee from Veracruz, and a generous splash of premium rum. Resulting in a balanced taste sensation that’s Dunkin’ delicious.

“This collaboration blends premium indulgence with everyday coffee culture,” said Brian Gilbert, Vice President, Retail Business Development, Dunkin’. “Kahlúa Dunkin’ Caramel Swirl is a bold step in the cream liqueur category for both brands and a delicious new treat for coffee and cocktail enthusiasts alike.”

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to make a White Russian with the liqueur and dunk some Dunkin’ Munchkins Donut Holes into it. Doesn’t that sound like the perfect after-dinner dessert?

If this news is not sweet enough, here is some more…this flavor is not going anywhere because it is part of Kahlúa’s permanent line.

Enjoy this pizza box hack!
August 4th, 2025 under Fast Food, Pizza. [ Comments: none ]

Let’s be honest, we order pizza in, we eat it, and we have leftovers. But how do we store it? That has been a question that has been asked since pizza delivery began, and we still don’t have an answer.

But not anymore. Salman Green shared a video of a hack that has solved the problem. You put all the pieces of the pie on top of each other in two groups, put them in the corner of the box, rip off the top, and then fold it until it makes a triangle that can close. And voila!

I was so excited after I saw this video that I ordered a pizza. However, I was not successful because I suck at things like that. I always failed whenever I tried to make an origami fortune teller.

If you do this, let me know how it turns out.
