FRIDAY 5 (+): FUN FOOD FINDS
Week of March 17-March 23, 2019
Just some fun food finds I made:
CNN’s Anthony Bourdain Biography
Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew Goes National
Ikea’s Easter Påskbord (All-You-Can-Eat)
Shake Shack’s New Cherry Blossom Shake for Spring
Lucky Charms Marshmallow-Only Boxes
CNN’s Anthony Bourdain Biography
I’ve been replaying his audiobooks while I work because his voice is comforting to me… Am I ready for reruns, yet? No. But I’m highly interested in reading this book to ease myself back into watching Bourdain reruns. CNN releases “Anthony Bourdain Remembered'“ on May 28. Amazon is taking preorders.

Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew Goes National
This is my preferred drink in Starbucks and now everyone can enjoy it!
Starbucks’ website says this on the item’s page:
“Our small-batch cold brew—slow-steeped for a super smooth taste—gets even better. We're infusing it with nitrogen for a naturally sweet flavor and cascading, velvety crema. Perfection is served.”

Shake Shack’s New Cherry Blossom Shake for Spring
On Instagram, yesterday, Shake Shack announced this very pretty addition to their menu:
“made from vanilla frozen custard blended with cherry blossom + topped with pink chocolate curls…available for a limited time! “
How Insta-ready is this?! Ugh. I guess this is the closest I’ll get to Japan’s cherry blossom festivals…

Lucky Charms Marshmallow-Only Boxes
Lucky Charms is making just 15,000 of these babies! I guess I could just eat all the regular cereal out of a regular box until I only have marshmallows… but I mean, this is pretty cool.
Unfortunately, you can’t just buy these boxes in a store… they are only win-able…
