Sweethearts Are Selling "Situationship" Hearts for Valentine's Day

 

We just got through the holidays, so it feels wrong to already mention another one.  But a new candy for Valentine's Day just landed . . .

 

 

Sweethearts are those little "conversation heart" candies with messages like "Be Mine".  This year, they're doing a special version for single people who are caught up in SITUATIONSHIPS.

 

 

Oxford English Dictionary defines a "situationship" as any "romantic or sexual relationship that is not considered to be formal or established."  So, more than a hook-up but not exclusive.  It made Oxford's shortlist for Word of the Year in 2023.

Starting next week, Sweethearts will sell boxes of "Situationship" hearts that look just like their normal candy.

  The only difference is the words are blurry and hard to read . . . just like Gen Z relationships are hard to read.  Their press release used the term "literal mixed messages."

 

It sounds like they might even be repurposing their misprinted hearts and just tossing them in a box.

 

 

Their V.P. of marketing said, quote, "The printing on Sweethearts isn't always perfect.  This is our way of embracing those imperfections in a way that taps into pop culture."

 

 

They go on sale at SweetheartsCandies.com at 9:00 A.M. Eastern this coming Monday.

Today is National Spaghetti Day.  Okay, so is the sauce on top, or is the sauce mixed in?

Though the origins of spaghetti are disputed—whether it was Marco Polo bringing back culinary invention from the East, and Arab trade-route delicacy, or a home-grown Sicilian treat dating back to the 12th Century—we can all agree that a cold night with a big bowl of noodle-y, saucy goodness is balm for the soul. So join us on January 4th as we celebrate National Spaghetti Day with this amazing dish!

Burger King employee in Nevada named Kevin Ford is in the news again after a GoFundMe helped buy him his first house.

video of him went viral in 2022 when he got a bunch of lame swag after not missing a single day of work in 27 years.  Since then, the GoFundMe has raised almost $450,000 to help him retire.

 

He just posted an update and revealed he bought a small home in Pahrump, Nevada, for $177,000.

  He said, "I know it's not a mansion, but it's MINE," and he thanked everyone who helped make it happen.

Italy Is Being Rocked by the "Pineapple on Pizza" Debate

 

 

Italy is in meltdown right now after PINEAPPLE just showed up on the menu at a well-known pizza place.  It's become an acceptable topping for a lot of Americans, but most Italians still passionately disagree with that.

 

 

A highly respected, third-generation pizzeria owner named Gino Sorbillo just decided to challenge that trend by adding it as an option at his restaurant.

 

 

To be clear, it's not the first time someone in Italy has put pineapple on a pizza.  Other places have done it.  But it's a big deal because his restaurant is in the heart of Naples . . . the "pizza capital of the world."

 

 

He says he's doing it to "combat food prejudice," and that it annoys him when people, quote, "follow the crowd and condition themselves according to other people's views."

 

 

That said, he's not selling what we'd call a "Hawaiian pizza."  His has three types of cheese . . . the pineapple is cooked twice to give it a caramelized taste . . . and the biggest difference is it's a "white pizza" with no tomato sauce.

Gino says tomatoes are a fruit, and you should never have two fruits on a pizza.  It makes everything too acidic, and, quote, "wouldn't be a good product."

 

 

In other words, pineapple on pizza is okay.  But if you're just tossing it on your normal order from Domino's, he thinks that's trash.
