They did seem like they lasted forever.

There's actually a lot of food people keep in the fridge that taste better when they're outside.

What yall think about these? Yay or nay?

Ohhhh Wendy's is stepping up their fries game with Dill Pickle SHAKER Fries in Canada... and this has opens up some huge opportunities here in the US as well!

They're taking a page directly from the McDonald's Grinch playbook with new Dill Pickle Shaker Fries where you get the seasoning packet that you can dump into the bag with your fries to coat them in dill pickle goodness.

Currently these are only in Canada, but you'd have to think just like the Frosty innovations these will start making their way here as well similar to the Takis fries last year.

Would you try Shaker Fries from Wendy's and what flavors would you want to see?

Humm 🤔 What are yalls thoughts on this?

I’ve never had a bad experience at Jersey Mikes, but also have never had a Chic-Fil-A experience either.

Jersey Mike’s has overtaken Chick-fil-A as America’s top-rated fast-food chain in the 2026 American Customer Satisfaction Index rankings

Jersey Mike’s scored 84 out of 100, narrowly beating Chick-fil-A’s 83

Looks like a fun festival to go to.

Beginning June 19th, the North Carolina Blueberry Festival gets underway in the charming little downtown area of the small town of Burgaw, NC! This beloved early-summer festival celebrates the blueberry-growing heritage of southeastern North Carolina, and it turns downtown Burgaw into a lively weekend filled with food, music, vendors, family fun, and plenty of fresh local berries.

The fun begins Friday night with a free 7:30 PM concert on the Main Stage, followed by the full festival day on Saturday, June 20th, when the streets around town fill with arts and craft vendors, food booths, live entertainment, kids activities, a car and truck show, barbecue, baked goods, and all kinds of blueberry treats. You’ll find farmers and vendors offering fresh blueberries along with pies, cakes, drinks, cobblers, and other sweets that show off the crop this area is known for.

Burgaw is a fitting place for the celebration, too, since Pender County played a major role in North Carolina’s blueberry story. Harold Graham Huntington helped bring commercial blueberry farming to this part of the state in the late 1920s, and by 1939 his Pender County blueberry farm was known as the largest in the world. Today, southeastern North Carolina still produces most of the state’s commercial blueberry crop, thanks in part to the acidic sandy soil that blueberries love. With free admission, small-town charm, live music, local flavor, and a full day of festival fun, the North Carolina Blueberry Festival is one of those June events that feels like summer in the South from the moment you arrive.
