Remember when Fall started after Labor Day? Well, at Krispy Kreme, Pumpkin Spice, aka Autumn, will be done by then.
Yesterday, the donut shop launched its Pumpkin Spice menu which includes four donuts (one new one) and two new coffee drinks.
NEW Pumpkin Spice Latte Swirl Doughnut: A Pumpkin Spice Doughnut dipped in a pumpkin spice/sugar blend and topped with a swirl of vanilla and coffee buttercream.
Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed® Doughnut: A classic Original Glazed doughnut with a pumpkin spice twist.
Pumpkin Spice Original Filled Cheesecake Doughnut: A Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed doughnut with creamy cheesecake filling decorated with cheesecake icing.
Pumpkin Spice Cake Doughnut: A perfectly spiced old-fashioned cake doughnut covered in iconic glaze.
Pumpkin Spice Latte: A latte flavored with pumpkin pie sauce, topped with whipped cream and pumpkin spice seasoning – available hot, iced or frozen.
NEW Pumpkin Spice Iced Coffee: Iced Coffee blended with pumpkin pie sauce.
Why are they starting the season before most kids are back in school? “Sure, pumpkin spice is generally associated with fall, but true fans of the flavor will agree that August is close enough! So, we’re pulling fall forward, enabling our guests to indulge and enjoy early with delicious pumpkin spice doughnuts and drinks, including our Pumpkin Spice Latte, which you can get iced or frozen, by the way,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme.
If Krispy Kreme debuts its Peppermint menu in September, I will boycott them. Not really, but I will say I will. I will do it because if now they will start celebrating Easter in January, and if the Groundhog hasn’t foreshadowed how many weeks until Spring, we cannot celebrate the season then. That sounded like a gpod excuse, didn’t it?
Back to this month’s donuts, you can get a free Pumpkin Spice one with any purchase today only.
Back in 2020, Taco Bell removed the Mexican Pizza from its menu because it was complicated to make during the pandemic. Then, in mid-May, it was back on for two weeks before it was gone again. Why? Because it was selling out all over the country, and they didn’t have enough ingredients to keep up with the supply.
Since then, people have been wondering when they can run to the border again, and now we know.
“It’s going to be relaunched mid-September, and it’s going to be a permanent item,” Taco Bell CEO Mark King told Fortune. “I had more feedback—hate mail!—over the removal of Mexican pizza [than any other time].”
Most excellent news! And hopefully, now, we will finally get that Dolly Parton musical for the item they promised us.
One last note, I got one of the Mexican Pizzas when they were back. And it was really yummy, so I can’t wait to have another one because yo quiero Taco Bell!
Mark Hamill was seen working a Jack in the Box drive-thru, so has the beloved actor hit hard times? I mean, now that Star Wars has moved beyond Luke Skywalker, he probably needs the money.
However, the actor doesn’t. You see, before we all knew his name, he worked at the fast food restaurant. One day when they asked him to work the drive-thru, he used a clown’s voice to take the orders. Guess what? His bosses didn’t find it funny, so they fired him.
Well, the Big Head at Jack in the Box heard about his firing and thought he would make it up to the star. So, after 52 years, they invited him back to work behind the window and let him use any voice he wanted.
How did he do? Everyone loved it! But it could be because they realized who the Joker is, and who doesn’t love him besides Darth Vader?
So, should we drive around trying to find that one store he works at? Nope, he is good now. So good, he is now doing commercials for them.

We know that Kentucky Fried Chicken is finger licking good, but what about their sides? Now, we can find out when we order the KFC Side Lovers meal that includes 3 large sides. That is because they will give you KFC Finger Sporks with each order.
So if you have been wanting to lick your fingers after you eat their Mac & Cheese or Cole Slaw, now you can find out what it is like. Plus, you can use it on any side anytime you want to lick your fingers after you gobble down the yummy food. Imagine how much fun they will be on Thanksgiving?!?
Yesterday, I posted about a nail polish that is the color of Raising Cane’s sauce. Today, I am going to tell you that Nails, Inc. teamed up with Velveeta to release two nail polishes, one red and one yellow, that smell like Velveeta cheese when it dries.
“VELVEETA is known for its rich, creamy texture and cheesy, melty goodness, so what better way to bring this to life for our fans than with something equally as rich and creamy — nail polish,” said Kelsey Rice, Senior Brand Communications Manager at The Kraft Heinz Company. “Our VELVEETA Pinkies Out Polish gives pleasure seekers everywhere an irresistible new way to show the world that they are living ‘La Dolce Velveeta’ by living pinkies out.”
So now, KFC will be known as finger licking good, and Velveeta will go by fingernail licking good. Because you know you are going to want to lick it to see if it tastes as good as it smells.
BTW I am afraid to ask what they are going to come up with next because at this rate, you know they are going to top this. The question is how.
If the nail polishes that come as a set seem appetizing to you, then you get them for just $15!
