Here's the Mystery Flavor of McDonald's New Pink and Blue Shake

I tried the McDonaldland Meal at my local McD's on Aug. 12, the day it came out. And I don't want to say that I've been thinking about the mystery flavor of its pink-and-blue Mt. McDonaldland shake ever since, because that would make me sound truly bizarre, but...I have pondered it. When I tasted the shake, I guessed it was maybe blue raspberry, maybe cotton candy, maybe mixed berry. It's sweet but not sickeningly so, though I'd never order it again. (I'm a chocolate fan.)

Meal kits have become the love child of "I want to eat something that didn't come from a drive-through" and "I wouldn't know a good recipe if it kissed me on the mouth." Meal kits are perfect for health-conscious folks who've realized that ordering Thai food five nights a week isn't a nutrition plan and for culinary beginners who think "sautéing" is a French dance move. Here's the plot twist: meal kits actually cost about the same as regular groceries these days. Yes, you read that right. Thank

CookUnity Prepared Meal Delivery Review (2025): Chef-Centric Meals

wired.com Matthew Korfhage 2025-12-22 08:36:00

It shouldn't be surprising if a plate of chicken lababdar tastes delicious. The dish is among my favorite North Indian gravies, a slightly edgier cousin of butter chicken that's a bit spicier and tangier but just as creamy. What was surprising was that this particular chicken had arrived in the mail. Specifically, it came in a microwaveable tray from CookUnity meal delivery service that looked a little like a white-label TV dinner—packed up earlier that morning in Seattle, then driven down to m

Most prepared meals either arrive frozen or can be frozen after unboxing. That means it's less of an issue if you order too many meals on your first go around. Most services allow you to change the number of meals or servings in your plan even after you've started. With almost every service, the more meals or servings you order per delivery, the cheaper it becomes per meal. You'll want to decide exactly how much food makes sense for your household.

Bloated costs on everything from eggs to olive oil have folks looking for ways to cut costs. Meal kits -- once considered a splurge -- may not have caused a blip on your thrifty radar. While supermarkets seemingly jack prices up at will, meal kit companies have been more careful when raising consumer costs, since retaining subscribers is key to their survival.

Eating three balanced meals per day is often touted as the healthiest way to maintain a healthy diet and get adequate nutrition.
