Story Tyme on The Morning Crave…
Story 1: Dunkin’ Has a New Spicy Ghost Pepper Donut
I’m not sure anyone was asking for a flamin’ hot donut, but here you go.
Dunkin’ just announced a new product they’re selling for Halloween . . . the Spicy Ghost Pepper Donut.
It’s a regular donut covered in a strawberry icing . . . with a HOT red sugar sprinkled on top.
If you’re interested, they should be on sale today.
Story 2: There Are New Board Games Based on Kraft Mac and Cheese, Heinz Ketchup, and Jell-O
Kraft Heinz just launched a three-pack of games based on Kraft Mac and Cheese . . . Heinz Ketchup . . . and Jell-O. The first two are dice games and the third is a card slapping game. And their game boxes look like the food packaging.
The three-pack of games is being sold exclusively at Target for $20. So buy it for someone this Christmas to get that coveted, “Hmm, thanks, I guess?” reaction.
Go here for more.
Go here for a picture of the boxes and the game action.
Story 3: Coronavirus Insanity: Secret Pregnancies, Ferris Wheel Dining, and More
Here’s a fresh batch of coronavirus insanity . . .
1. “Secret pregnancies“ are on the rise during the pandemic. Since people are staying home . . . and only appearing on Zoom from the chest up . . . women can keep their pregnancies hidden from coworkers and other people until they WANT to share the news.
And they’re taking advantage of that to avoid some of the downsides of people knowing you’re pregnant . . . as one woman said, quote, “A lot of people assume . . . you’re not mentally there, and that’s clearly not true.”
2. Here’s a new way to keep people socially distanced at a restaurant: Have them sit in their own Ferris wheel cars while they eat. There’s a restaurant in San Diego that’s planning to set that up in the next few months.
3. A guy in Texas who managed to get $17.7 million in PPP loans for businesses he only incorporated after the CARES Act started blew the money on houses, a Bentley, and more. He’s now been arrested on several federal fraud charges.
4. The Encore at Wynn casino in Las Vegas will now close from Monday through Thursday, quote, “until consumer demand for Las Vegas increases.”
5. The administration at Brigham Young University’s campus in Idaho is threatening to suspend any students who are purposely trying to get coronavirus so they can sell their plasma once they recover.
6. Some people around the country are starting to hoard food and, yes, toilet paper again in preparation for the next surge of coronavirus.
