This week on Knead to Know, we’re diving into a full plate of summer flavors, food fails, and funny feuds.
From Starbucks' boba backlash and cake pop drama to TikTok's wildest food trends (hot honey cheesecake, tahini cookie pizza, wine on ice cream?!), Gemma and Ami break it all down — and they don’t hold back.
Plus: strong opinions about potluck etiquette, hostess gifts, and whether flowers should ever show up in plastic wrap.
💬 What You’ll Hear:
• The new Starbucks Summer menu
• Swalty vs. swicy: are we OK with this?!
• Wine + ice cream = sweet success or sticky mistake?
• Potluck chaos: passive-aggressive hosts, and why store-bought isn't always the move
• Best desserts to bring to summer parties
