The Weekly Donut 5/3
The French used to call donuts, "Pet de Nonne," which translates to, "Nun Farts!"
Get ready to indulge in all things food news...
Fish are friends, not food.
Next time you go grocery shopping, skip the plastic bags and put your produce in some reusable totes. Even "biodegradable" bags are being sketch... This week, a study was published that calls out the biodegradable bags for not being biodegradable at all. Cleaning up the the ocean is a daunting task and we are all suffering from it, sooo... reusable grocery bags FTW.
A brewery in Florida, Saltwater Brewery, teamed up with Eco Six Pack Rings to allow you to get your drink on with a little less guilt. E6PR is a start-up dedicated to doing good and they started by saying bye-bye to plastic rings. They created the first biodegradable and compostable rings that hold your 6-pack of soda and beer together. These rings, unlike those evil plastic rings that you see wrapped around turtles necks :( , actually feed sea life. Yes, fishies and sharks and everything in-between can eat and digest these rings! Now #DrinkToSaveTheTurtles is something we all can get behind.

Ah push it- Poosh it real good.
Kourtney Kardashian launched her wellness site, Poosh, a few months ago to brag about how she looks so good. Besides the poorly written articles and lack-luster interviews, Poosh just introduced their first collab, Vital Proteins x Poosh. These new limited-edition protein powders come in two Kourtney approved flavors: Blueberry and Lemon Collagen Vibes and Pink Moon Milk Collagen Latte. Sounds like some word vomit to me.
Speaking of moons...
Kendall Jenner introduced a new line of vegan teeth whitening products called Moon Oral Care. Just like Kendall, I'm a sucker for white teeth, red wine, and Nacho Cheese Dorritos, so take my money!
Okay, don't take that much money...
Kylie Jenner threw her boyfriend/baby-daddy/maybe husband, Travis Scott, an outrageous 28th birthday party and we don't even want to know how much it cost her. The party theme was Gas Station but make it chic! Amongst the Nike's, motor oil, and tattoo station, there was plenty of food that was on theme. Kylie stocked the place with Travis's favorite candy and CBD gummies and the beverages were flowing with a Cactus Cooler and Hennessey Slurpies. How do I hire Kylie to be the creative director of my party?? I'll pay you in donuts!

Craving Chrissy
Hulu announces that Chrissy Teigen will be co-hosting a new show called Family Style. The show will also star chef, David Chang, and will focus on the importance of food in different cultures and how food is an expression of love. Sounds like I have a date with my couch, computer, and some family sized snacks!
Barstool is coming for donuts...
And we are team #StaplesKyle
Fast Food Frenzy
These Frosties are looking a lot like Blizzards and DQ is (ice)-screaming. Now, they've had to up their game.
Burger King's Impossible Whopper is coming to you!
