When I think of Pepperidge Farm, I normally just think of Milano cookies. But it turns out that this company makes many of my grocery go-tos: Goldfish crackers, puff pastry sheets, farmhouse thin-and-crispy cookies, and Chessmen cookies.I have always loved a classic buttery Chessmen cookie (especially paired with a hot cup of tea).

I saw Dua Lipa perform at Austin City Limits in 2024, and my life hasn’t been the same since. I loved it all: her dancing, her outfits, her music. So when I recently heard about something she’s been snacking on, I was sure I’d love that too. And I wasn’t wrong. When the pop star posted a photo of a bag of potato chips on her Instagram, I was intrigued. These weren’t just any ol’ bag of plain potato chips (no shade — I adore all potato chips).

Chocolate and mint is a classic flavor combination, but it can be surprisingly polarizing. I’ve always been a fan, but I still remember my college roommate telling me that it makes her think of toothpaste with chocolate in it. While I don’t agree, I must admit “touché” to that comparison.If you’re on team MCC (mint chocolate chip), then you’re going to love M&M’s newest launch.

Great news for Team Iced Coffee.

Hint: It’s not just for pizza.

It’s a welcome change from pumpkin spice.
