Speaker 1 (00:00):
Froggy. Oh, yes, you will be in a world of
fast food inflammation. All right, food NEOs Thursday.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
It's all you, froggy.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
What's going on? All right? If you remember a couple
of months ago, Brad Reese, the grandson of the Reese's
Peanut butter cup inventor HB.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Reese. No Reese, ignore him, Please can move on, he complained. Okay,
now we're gonna stop down and yell at Nate. You
just you love to be chastised, don't you. It's recy
It's not Reese's. It's Reese's.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
It's a guy named Reese, and they're his. They're Reeses. Okay,
go ahead, tell the story now. Well, he had complained
that they change the classic recipe, replacing mil milk chocolate
with a compound coating and peanut butter with peanut butter
style cream. Well, the Reese's company has now said that
they will shift back to their classic milk chocolate and

(00:49):
dark chocolate recipes. They said, Hershey's is committed to making
products consumers love, and that means continually reviewing our recipes
to meet the evolving taste and preferences of our fans.
They are going back to the way it was now,
this will not happen until next year. So if you're
planning on eating some Reese's peanut butter eggs for Easter,

(01:10):
well they're still going to be made with the compound
coatings and peanut butter style creams. It will be next
year when the change takes effect, so just be aware. Thanks.
I thought this was kind of cool. A Chick fil
A in Maryland has started doing something called the Family Challenge.
They've got to sign advertising that they're doing this. It's
called the Chick fil A Cell Phone Coop Challenge. You

(01:32):
ask a team member for a coop, just a little
plastic box. You place all the phones in the coop
and enjoy your meal together. After you're finished, you let
a team member know, and every person at the table
gets a free ice dream cone as a reward for
having a little family time and everybody not being on
the phone. So that's all it works, called Chick fil

(01:54):
a coop. Little thing. You just cram all your phones
in and eat your dinner. This is not an April
Fool's Day. Prey the Cheesecake Factory. They have just launched
a new app and to celebrate they're offering a free
slice of cheesecake with any purchase. All you have to
do is download the app, either log in or sign
up for the Cheesecake Rewards program. You have now to
