Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Kentucky Fried Chicken is adding its first new bucket to its menu in a decade, and it is coming with their new side, Mashed Potato Poppers, which are creamy mashed potatoes golden fried for the perfect crunchy bite.

“Our new Mashed Potato Poppers transform a legendary KFC classic into a crunchy can’t-resist bite of perfection,” said Catherine Tan-Gillespie, President, KFC U.S. “And the Dunk It Bucket? Oh, it’s a dream come true for sauce lovers—dip it, dunk it, drench it, do your thing. It’s our first brand-new bucket in nearly a decade, and trust me, it was so worth the wait!”

The $7 Dunk-It Bucket comes with two chicken tenders, five Mashed Potato Poppers, a scoop of French fries, and three sauces. You can choose from Warm Gravy, Comeback Sauce, Honey BBQ,
Honey Mustard, Sticky Chicky Sweet and Sour Sauce, Classic Ranch, and Buffalo Ranch.

If you want to make it a family meal, for $25, you get ten chicken tenders and Mashed Potato Poppers, two scoops of French fries, six sauces, and four biscuits.

I don’t know about you, but that sounds scrumptious to me. If it does to you too, don’t wait too long to try them. They are only available for a limited time. And for $7, it is cheaper than a carton of eggs!

Charcuterie boards are all the rage at parties, and Pizza Hut has decided to get in on the trend with a Pizza Charcuterie.

Therefore, starting on March 14th, they will be selling their take on one that you can share with your guests at your Pi Day party or any event of your choosing!

The Pizza Charcuterie comes with:

• Any 2 Medium Pizzas: Pick your faves, from classic Hand Tossed to bold flavors like Chicago Tavern-Style Pizza.
• Any 8 Boneless Wings: Because every great spread needs something crispy, saucy and shareable.
• Any Sticks and Dips: Sticks and a variety of savory dips to take your board to the next level.

You can get all of that for just $24.99, which feels like a bargain.

“We’ve seen creative charcuterie boards take over social feeds, and we knew it was time to give pizza the spotlight it deserves,” said Melissa Friebe, Chief Marketing Officer at Pizza Hut. “Because let’s be honest—stacking crackers is cute, but stacking pizza, wings, and breadsticks? That’s a power move.”

And now the power is in your hands to make your own Pizza Charcuterie here.

CNW Group/Firehouse Subs

Have you ever wanted to try The Last Dab hot sauce from Hot Ones but are not brave enough to buy a bottle? Well, Firehouse Subs is selling a sub with the extremely hot sauce.

The Spicy Dill Hook & Ladder features Canadian smoked turkey, honey ham, melted jalapeño jack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, deli mustard, Firehouse Hero Sauce, and the one-of-a-kind Last Dab™ Dill Pickle* — a pickle plank marinated in Hot Ones’ Last Dab™ Reaper Edition hot sauce.

“Firehouse Subs’ reputation for delicious, flavourful subs make them the perfect partner for a Hot Ones collab,” said Hot Ones host Sean Evans. “We’re excited to see our hot sauces take center stage in these creative new subs, each one packing a varying level of heat. This partnership perfectly blends our shared passion for pushing the boundaries of flavour and heat, and we can’t wait for our fans to try these fiery subs.”

Along with the Spicy Dill Sub, they are also selling the Zesty Garlic Hook & Ladder. It packs Canadian smoked turkey, honey ham, melted jalapeño jack cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, garlic chips, and mayo, with a garlicky punch from Hot Ones’ The Classic™ Garlic Fresno Hot Sauce.

Both subs are available for a limited time starting today.

I should add that the Spicy Dill sub comes with a warning: Individuals sensitive to spice or the Carolina Reaper pepper should not consume the Spicy Dill Hook & Ladder®.

when they ask “mama where were you when IHOP broke a @GWR title” what’s your response going to be??? pic.twitter.com/8OJ1EvcpRI

Today is the 20th anniversary of National Pancake Day, and the International House of Pancakes celebrated it on Saturday.

They left their international house and went to the Santa Monica Pier to get themselves in the Guinness Book of World Records. They wanted to get the title of Most Pancakes in an Eight-Hour period.

The pancake giant set a goal of serving 20,000 pancakes between 9a-5p. They not only reached that goal, but they exceeded it. By the end of the day, they handed out 25,629 pancakes to break the record.

I am sure every person who cooked those flapjacks will never want cook or see one ever again.

While they will not want to see any more pancakes, IHOP is hoping you do. Because from 7a-8p today, patrons will get a free buttermilk short stack.

IHOP was not the only winner on Saturday; they donated $1 to Feeding America for every pancake that was served. That means the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank will have an extra $25,629 to serve the people who need their service. In the words of Charlie Sheen, “Winning!””

Starbucks

Have you ever been to Starbucks and been like they have too many drinks to choose from? Starting on March 4th, they will be removing 13 from their menu.

“As part of our plan to get back to Starbucks, we’re simplifying our menu to focus on fewer, more popular items, executed with excellence,” Starbucks tells TODAY.com. “This will make way for innovation, help reduce wait times, improve quality and consistency, and align with our core identity as a coffee company.”

The unlucky 13 are:

Iced Matcha Lemonade: As an alternative, Starbucks recommends trying its Green Tea Lemonade, which shares similar citrus and grassy flavors.

Espresso Frappuccino, Caffè Vanilla Frappuccino: Instead, Starbucks suggests the Coffee Frappuccino, which features a blend of coffee, milk and ice. This beverage can also be customized to add a shot of espresso or pump of syrup.

White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino: As a substitute, Starbucks says to try its Mocha Frappuccino.

Java Chip Frappuccino: Instead, Starbucks suggests the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino, which contains chocolate bits with a similar texture.

Chai Crème Frappuccino, Caramel Ribbon Crunch Crème Frappuccino, Double Chocolaty Chip Crème Frappuccino, Chocolate Cookie Crumble Crème Frappuccino and White Chocolate Crème Frappuccino: As an alternative, Starbucks suggests the Vanilla Bean Frappuccino, which can be customized with flavorings, or the Strawberry Frappuccino.

White Hot Chocolate: As a substitute, Starbucks says its Hot Chocolate can be customized with Mocha or White Chocolate Mocha sauce.

Royal English Breakfast Latte: Instead, Starbucks recommends its London Fog Latte, which has similar sweet floral notes.

Honey Almondmilk Flat White: As an alternative, Starbucks suggests the Flat White, which can be customized with any nondairy milk and sweetener of choice.

These are just the first drinks to go to Starbucks Heaven, more will be added in the future. When they are done doing an Elon Musk, they will have shrunk their menu by about 30%.

The news is not all bad. The coffee restaurant will be announcing their Spring drinks soon.

Which drink are you going to miss the most?
