OMG—Disneyland Is Selling Pizza Topped With Pickles
Last month at Disneyland, Alien Pizza Planet opened up in Tomorrowland as part of Pixar Fest (running now through September). You know, the pizza place from “Toy Story?” On the menu is a new Cheeseburger pizza that, according to Popsugar, is loaded up with a slider burger patty, burger sauce, cheese, onions, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, sesame seeds, and yes, pickles. They’re putting pickles on pizza, people! All the other toppings considered, pickles on top feels like a solid choice. A slice will run you $8 and you’ll have until the end of the fest to give it a try.
Starbucks Is Selling a New Brownie Topped With Potato Chips
In addition to their new cold brew whipped cream and frappuccinos, starting today, Starbucks is selling a new brownie. The treat is the perfect combo of salty and sweet, coated in a chocolate shell, and topped with potato chip crumbles. It comes from Dog Tag Bakery in honor of Military Awareness Month. Based out of Georgetown, Dog Tag Bakery has an entrepreneurial program for veterans and military families that provides education and hands-on experience for building a strong professional and personal life after duty. You can try the brownie now through June 1, or until supplies last.
Dog Tag Bakery’s entrepreneurial fellowship program combines education with hands-on experience to create a living business school, to build a bridge to employment and to help veterans, military spouses and caregivers find fulfillment in their professional and personal lives.
