Each visit to Starbucks is full of surprises, and the popular coffee chain is bringing another amazing innovation to its stores this winter. Starbucks is bringing back the condiment bar, and offering a “for here” option to dine-in customers, which allows you to refill some drinks free of charge.

Participating Starbucks locations in North America rolled out the “for here” offer this week, allowing dine-in customers to receive their drink in a ceramic mug, glass, or clean personal cup. They will also be eligible for free refills during the same visit, with tea, hot or iced brewed coffee being some of the drinks included in this offer.

This initiative marks Starbucks’ latest attempt to embrace sustainability after this coffee chain made a pledge to reduce its overall waste by 50% by 2030. 

“Offering customers who sit and stay their beverages in ceramic mugs and glassware is one way we’re returning our cafes to warm welcoming coffeehouses. It’s also another way that Starbucks is reducing waste and making each visit a more sustainable choice,” said a Starbucks spokesperson in a press release.

Starbucks is also bringing back its iconic condiment bar, which hasn’t been around since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Customers can now add creamer, milk, and sweeteners to their drinks on their own, thus freeing up baristas to make more orders.

All-you-can-eat buffets are a great way to get a filling meal for cheap while also sampling an array of dishes you wouldn’t have thought of trying otherwise. However, if you want to have a great experience at an all-you-can-eat buffet, there are certain foods you should steer clear of unless you are really craving them.

High-Carb Foods

You’ll notice that high-carb foods like mashed potatoes and pasta are always prominently displayed in all-you-can-eat establishments. That is because they are cheap and filling. If you load your plate with them, you won’t be able to sample much of anything else because you will already be stuffed.

Fried Foods

Fried foods are hard to resist, but you should make an effort at all-you-can-eat buffets. Most places use cheap frying oils, while fried foods can often sit for hours on the open, making them unhealthy and often unsatisfying.

Sushi  

It is rare to find good sushi at all-you-can-eat buffets, so you won’t miss out on anything if you skip it. But most importantly, the handling of food is often questionable at these types of establishments, which is never good when it comes to raw fish.

Dairy and Cream-Based Food

You are better off leaving dairy and cream-based food out of your plate. This type of food is usually loaded with unhealthy fats and is also more prone to spoiling. The same goes for creamy sauces and salad dressing.

Soda and Juices

Finally, you should opt for regular or sparkling water when at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Soda and juices are usually packed with sugar, but they can also make you feel bloated and upset your stomach.

We can always count on Pinterest to wrap up the year by announcing their trend predictions for the next one, and they’ve done it again! Their trend forecast has given us a unique insight into what to expect from the next year, and here are three delicious trends worth getting a taste of in 2025.

Pickle Fix

2025 is shaping up to be a dill-icious year, and Pinterest predicts it’s going to give us a “pickle fix.” Pickles will be the main ingredient in many foods and drinks we’ll be seeing everywhere in the next few months, including pickle fries, cakes, dips, and even margaritas.

Rebel Floats

According to Pinterest, 2025 will be all about seeing soda in a brand-new light. “Rebel floats” are bringing the sweet taste of nostalgia into our lives and giving soda pop a modern makeover. Fruit soda is all the rage on Pinterest, along with homemade soda and root beer, but searches for “cream soda aesthetic” are also on the rise.

Chaos Cakes

If perfectly polished cakes simply aren’t your thing, you’ll be happy to hear that everyone on Pinterest feels the same way. “Chaos cakes” are going stronger than ever, and they’ll bring silly vibes to your next celebration. The list of most-searched terms under this category includes rat cakes, silly cakes, celeb crush cakes, and funny bento cake designs.

Brand collaborations inspired by Wicked are everywhere these days, and some of them even entered the world of food. From Oreo to Betty Crocker, several brands we all know and love released collaborations inspired by this musical, and here are five of the very best.

Oreo

Oreo celebrated the release of Wicked by launching limited-edition cookies, called Green Elixir in honor of Elphaba and Bubblegum in honor of Glinda.

Rice Krispies Treats 

Rice Krispies Treats paid homage to this iconic musical by releasing a special edition of crispy marshmallow squares covered with white and green sprinkles.

Starbucks

Wicked fans can also celebrate its release at Starbucks, with a peppermint-flavored drink called Elphaba’s Cold Brew and a mango-dragonfruit Refresher called Glinda’s Pink Potion. This coffee chain also introduced an impressive lineup of drinkware in honor of this film.

Stanley

Speaking of drinkware, Stanley also hopped on the Wicked bandwagon with new green and pink tumblers inspired by the film’s leading duo. This limited edition collection was available at Target, along with many other Wicked-themed products.

Betty Crocker

If you’re a fan of baking, Betty Crocker’s Wicked collection will be your favorite. They prepared a vanilla cupcake kit, which will reveal either pink or green batter once you mix the ingredients.

Finding something to eat after midnight isn’t hard, as there is always some gas station, food cart, or pizza place working late. But what if you want to have a proper meal? All your favorite food places are likely closed, and you probably do not have the drive to cook so late. Luckily, there are several U.S. restaurant chains that are open 24/7 and will provide you with a great and filling meal. Here are the best ones.

Waffle House

Waffle House is the king of late-night eats. This iconic restaurant chain is famous for working 24/7, 365 days a year. It even tries to be open or get up and running as soon as possible during catastrophic events like floods and storms. Here, you can get hashbrowns, chicken and waffles, a full breakfast, and many more freshly cooked items. Unfortunately, only 25 states have a Waffle House location, and most of them are in the Midwest and the South.

IHOP

Craving for pancakes at 3 a.m.? Well, you get them at IHOP. Despite specializing in breakfast food, many IHOP restaurants are open 24/7 and offer lunch and dinner items to hungry customers. A great thing is that you’ll find an IHOP in all 50 states.

Denny’s

If you want a proper table service restaurant experience after midnight, head to Denny’s. Everything at Denny’s is made to order, and you can order anything from omelets and pancakes to soups, salads, steaks, and burgers.

You might have realized by now that they do many things differently in the Balkans. This is also the case with the food, which is diverse, filling, and influenced by a number of different cuisines.

Recently, TikTok users have discovered that people in the Balkans have quite a unique assortment of food for breakfast and have started the “Balkan breakfast” trend. Forget about cereal, bagels, pancakes, and orange juices. In the Balkans, people like to start their day with cheese, cured meats, raw veggies, Ajvar, and a lot of bread.

The start of the “Balkan breakfast” trend is credited to user @.dayi_. Back in September, @.dayi_ shared a video showing him eating cheese, raw veggies like tomatoes and bell peppers, and bread.

After the clip went viral, getting close to seven million views, other TikTok users rushed to try it out. It also prompted people from the Balkans to share their own versions.

Serbian TikTok user @balkandad pointed out that a lot of people are forgetting to add a drinkable yogurt to their Balkan breakfast routine. He adds that the proper way of consuming Balkan breakfast is eating “little by little, the bite of this, the bite of that.”

What do you think about Balkan breakfast? Would you try it? If you are still unsure, more examples are below to help you make up your mind.

Kroger is one of America’s leading supermarket chains, and the buying habits of their customers can give us valuable insight into what will be in and out in 2025. Their experts gathered all this data and composed a list of five food trends worth trying next year, from briny foods to plant-based protein.

Plant-Based Protein

Plant-based food experienced a huge boom in recent years, and it will be going stronger than ever in 2025. Kroger predicts a boom of vegan foods with high protein content, including beans, lentils, and hemp seeds.

Private Labels

Buying food dupes by private store labels instead of opting for similar products by national brands is a great money saver, and more people will use this strategy to lower their grocery expenses in 2025.

International Spices

Fans of all things spicy will be happy with Kroger’s forecast since their experts are predicting the rise of spices and peppers from international cuisines.

Caesar Dressing

Caesar dressing is never going out of style, but the days when we’ve only used it in our salads are long behind us. Kroger predicts we’ll start mixing it up with everything from miso and tahini to black garlic and start adding it to a wide variety of different dishes.

Briny Flavors

If you’re a huge fan of acidic, briny, and fermented foods, such as olives, pickles, sauerkraut, and kimchi, you’ll be happy to hear they’ll be going stronger than ever in 2025.

We’ve seen many celebrities launch their own beverage brands in recent years, and Tom Holland is the latest star to embrace this craze. The Spider-Man actor announced the launch of a non-alcoholic beer brand named Bero, inspired by his deeply personal sobriety journey.

Holland started experimenting with sobriety by taking part in “dry January” in 2022, giving up alcohol after a boozy holiday season. He noticed how much better and healthier he felt, so he decided to keep the challenge going for a few more months, and his relationship with alcohol completely changed during this time.

In the sea of celebrity alcohol brands, Holland decided to go down a different route and launch a beer company inspired by his commitment to sobriety. Bero is hitting the shelves on October 16, and its official website describes it as an “alternative that brings all the sophistication and flavor of the best craft beverages while offering something a little different – something that fits into every moment.”

Bero’s first drop will include three non-alcoholic beers in green, red, and white cans, described as “equally familiar and completely new.” Holland teased the brand’s launch with a series of promo videos and images, including one featuring a female figure holding a tennis racquet while opening a can of Bero, rumored to be Holland’s girlfriend Zendaya.

Halloween-themed collaborations are everywhere these days, and the world’s leading fast-food chains didn’t stay immune to this trend. Burger King embraced it with open arms and introduced a menu inspired by The Addams Family just in time for the spooky season.

Burger King’s new collection includes four new products inspired by our favorite members of the Addams family. Wednesday’s Whopper is the spooky menu’s signature product, and it features many of the same ingredients as the flame-grilled Whopper – but in a purple bun!

Thing’s Rings, Gomez’s Churro Fries, and Morticia’s Kooky Chocolate Shake are also a part of The Addams Family menu, and they can be found at participating Burger King restaurants from October 10 until supplies last.

Pat O’Toole, the chief marketing officer for Burger King North America, said they’re fully aware that their guests are looking forward to seeing what delicious and kooky creations they come up with each Halloween, and they wanted to surprise them with something special this season.

“We know The Addams Family also has an affinity for the scarier things in life, so we’re excited to offer fans not one, but four new takes on their favorite Burger King products this Halloween season with these Addams Family-inspired creations,” said O’Toole in a press release.

Wicked fans can also celebrate its release at Starbucks, with a peppermint-flavored drink called Elphaba’s Cold Brew and a mango-dragonfruit Refresher called Glinda’s Pink Potion. This coffee chain also introduced an impressive lineup of drinkware in honor of this film.

Stanley

Speaking of drinkware, Stanley also hopped on the Wicked bandwagon with new green and pink tumblers inspired by the film’s leading duo. This limited edition collection was available at Target, along with many other Wicked-themed products.

Betty Crocker

If you’re a fan of baking, Betty Crocker’s Wicked collection will be your favorite. They prepared a vanilla cupcake kit, which will reveal either pink or green batter once you mix the ingredients.

Finding something to eat after midnight isn’t hard, as there is always some gas station, food cart, or pizza place working late. But what if you want to have a proper meal? All your favorite food places are likely closed, and you probably do not have the drive to cook so late. Luckily, there are several U.S. restaurant chains that are open 24/7 and will provide you with a great and filling meal. Here are the best ones.

Waffle House

Waffle House is the king of late-night eats. This iconic restaurant chain is famous for working 24/7, 365 days a year. It even tries to be open or get up and running as soon as possible during catastrophic events like floods and storms. Here, you can get hashbrowns, chicken and waffles, a full breakfast, and many more freshly cooked items. Unfortunately, only 25 states have a Waffle House location, and most of them are in the Midwest and the South.

IHOP

Craving for pancakes at 3 a.m.? Well, you get them at IHOP. Despite specializing in breakfast food, many IHOP restaurants are open 24/7 and offer lunch and dinner items to hungry customers. A great thing is that you’ll find an IHOP in all 50 states.

Denny’s

If you want a proper table service restaurant experience after midnight, head to Denny’s. Everything at Denny’s is made to order, and you can order anything from omelets and pancakes to soups, salads, steaks, and burgers.

You might have realized by now that they do many things differently in the Balkans. This is also the case with the food, which is diverse, filling, and influenced by a number of different cuisines.

Recently, TikTok users have discovered that people in the Balkans have quite a unique assortment of food for breakfast and have started the “Balkan breakfast” trend. Forget about cereal, bagels, pancakes, and orange juices. In the Balkans, people like to start their day with cheese, cured meats, raw veggies, Ajvar, and a lot of bread.

The start of the “Balkan breakfast” trend is credited to user @.dayi_. Back in September, @.dayi_ shared a video showing him eating cheese, raw veggies like tomatoes and bell peppers, and bread.

After the clip went viral, getting close to seven million views, other TikTok users rushed to try it out. It also prompted people from the Balkans to share their own versions.

Serbian TikTok user @balkandad pointed out that a lot of people are forgetting to add a drinkable yogurt to their Balkan breakfast routine. He adds that the proper way of consuming Balkan breakfast is eating “little by little, the bite of this, the bite of that.”

What do you think about Balkan breakfast? Would you try it? If you are still unsure, more examples are below to help you make up your mind.

Kroger is one of America’s leading supermarket chains, and the buying habits of their customers can give us valuable insight into what will be in and out in 2025. Their experts gathered all this data and composed a list of five food trends worth trying next year, from briny foods to plant-based protein.

Plant-Based Protein

Plant-based food experienced a huge boom in recent years, and it will be going stronger than ever in 2025. Kroger predicts a boom of vegan foods with high protein content, including beans, lentils, and hemp seeds.

Private Labels

Buying food dupes by private store labels instead of opting for similar products by national brands is a great money saver, and more people will use this strategy to lower their grocery expenses in 2025.

International Spices

Fans of all things spicy will be happy with Kroger’s forecast since their experts are predicting the rise of spices and peppers from international cuisines.

Caesar Dressing

Caesar dressing is never going out of style, but the days when we’ve only used it in our salads are long behind us. Kroger predicts we’ll start mixing it up with everything from miso and tahini to black garlic and start adding it to a wide variety of different dishes.

Briny Flavors

If you’re a huge fan of acidic, briny, and fermented foods, such as olives, pickles, sauerkraut, and kimchi, you’ll be happy to hear they’ll be going stronger than ever in 2025.

We’ve seen many celebrities launch their own beverage brands in recent years, and Tom Holland is the latest star to embrace this craze. The Spider-Man actor announced the launch of a non-alcoholic beer brand named Bero, inspired by his deeply personal sobriety journey.

Holland started experimenting with sobriety by taking part in “dry January” in 2022, giving up alcohol after a boozy holiday season. He noticed how much better and healthier he felt, so he decided to keep the challenge going for a few more months, and his relationship with alcohol completely changed during this time.

In the sea of celebrity alcohol brands, Holland decided to go down a different route and launch a beer company inspired by his commitment to sobriety. Bero is hitting the shelves on October 16, and its official website describes it as an “alternative that brings all the sophistication and flavor of the best craft beverages while offering something a little different – something that fits into every moment.”

Bero’s first drop will include three non-alcoholic beers in green, red, and white cans, described as “equally familiar and completely new.” Holland teased the brand’s launch with a series of promo videos and images, including one featuring a female figure holding a tennis racquet while opening a can of Bero, rumored to be Holland’s girlfriend Zendaya.

Halloween-themed collaborations are everywhere these days, and the world’s leading fast-food chains didn’t stay immune to this trend. Burger King embraced it with open arms and introduced a menu inspired by The Addams Family just in time for the spooky season.

Burger King’s new collection includes four new products inspired by our favorite members of the Addams family. Wednesday’s Whopper is the spooky menu’s signature product, and it features many of the same ingredients as the flame-grilled Whopper – but in a purple bun!

Thing’s Rings, Gomez’s Churro Fries, and Morticia’s Kooky Chocolate Shake are also a part of The Addams Family menu, and they can be found at participating Burger King restaurants from October 10 until supplies last.

Pat O’Toole, the chief marketing officer for Burger King North America, said they’re fully aware that their guests are looking forward to seeing what delicious and kooky creations they come up with each Halloween, and they wanted to surprise them with something special this season.

“We know The Addams Family also has an affinity for the scarier things in life, so we’re excited to offer fans not one, but four new takes on their favorite Burger King products this Halloween season with these Addams Family-inspired creations,” said O’Toole in a press release.
