In a surprising move, Pizza Hut has announced its entry into the burger business with the introduction of their new Cheeseburger Melt. The parmesan-crusted thin crust Melt is filled with beef, applewood-smoked bacon, onions, mozzarella, and cheddar, served with Burger Sauce on the side. Pizza Hut’s Cheeseburger Melt ditches the traditional burger bun and instead wraps all the flavors of a cheeseburger into a crispy thin crust.


To promote their new menu item, Pizza Hut is encouraging burger enthusiasts to cheat on their usual burger chain. The company is dispatching delivery drivers to certain fast-food burger chain drive-thrus, equipped with a QR code displayed on their back windows. Customers who see the cars and scan the QR code to request a better burger will be entered to receive a coupon for a free Cheeseburger Melt and a refreshing Pepsi drink.

Pizza Hut’s decision to venture into the burger business comes as a surprise, but the company is confident in their ability to deliver a superior cheeseburger experience. Lindsay Morgan, Chief Marketing Officer at Pizza Hut, expressed excitement about the brand’s foray into the burger industry, stating that they wanted to make a bold move and give burger lovers something new and delicious.

The Cheeseburger Melt is the perfect meal option for lunch or dinner, with Pizza Hut’s signature Thin N’ Crispy crust loaded with toppings and cheese and baked to melty perfection. The Melt is complemented by a dipping sauce that pairs perfectly with the individual-sized meal. In addition to the cheeseburger variety, Pizza Hut offers Melts in four other flavors: Pepperoni Lover’s, Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Bacon Parmesan, and Meat Lover’s.

Rachel Antalek, Chief Food Innovation Officer at Pizza Hut, explained that the Cheeseburger Melt provides a unique twist on traditional cheeseburgers. The Melt can be dipped into what Pizza Hut claims is the best burger dipping sauce, creating a burger and sauce experience that is unmatched.

Customers can order the Cheeseburger Melt as part of Pizza Hut’s new My Hut Box offer, which allows guests to choose between Melts or a 2-topping Personal Pan Pizza, along with a side of fries or boneless wings and a 20oz drink.

What 100% Grass-Fed Organic Dairy Brings to Your Table

Published

on

100% grass-fed organic dairy (Family Features) It’s no secret that many grocery store dairy sections are filled with more options today. One choice continuing to gain favor with consumers is 100% grass-fed organic dairy. Nutrition, environmental awareness and animal care are some of the leading reasons consumers choose grass-fed dairy products. Globally, the 100% grass-fed dairy market is projected to continue growing and some market experts predict annual growth rates as high as 22%. If you’re curious about 100% grass-fed organic dairy, consider these benefits from Maple Hill, America’s original 100% grass-fed organic dairy producer. The pioneer of 100% grass-fed organic dairy took its commitment a step further by celebrating and declaring National 100% Grass-Fed Organic Dairy Day on April 15, which recognizes the positive impact it has on consumers, cows, farmers and the environment. 1. Honoring the Farmers Unlike large-scale corporate dairy farms, most organic farms are small, family-owned operations dedicated to traditional, sustainable farming. Small dairy farms have been disappearing, but 100% grass-fed organic dairy creates a sustainable, viable path forward for farmers who work in harmony with nature. This more natural approach to dairy is a “craft” process, favoring small family farmers who are willing to dedicate the extra focus and patience to a better product and process. These family farms are passed on to future generations to grow the “better for you, better for the planet” approach. 2. Commitment to Good Health Most consumers don’t know the difference between traditional organic and 100% grass-fed organic dairy. One key distinction is the products’ nutritional composition; 100% grass-fed organic dairy provides a 50% healthier ratio of omega 3:6 and 40% higher levels of CLA fatty acids, which may support heart health and provide other health benefits. What’s more, Maple Hill’s products made with 100% grass-fed organic dairy are GMO free, hormone free and antibiotic free with no additives or fillers. The line of high-quality, rich-flavored products let you experience the organic difference from traditional dairy for a nutrient-dense solution that tastes as nature intended. 3. Happy, Healthy Cows Cows on a 100% grass-fed diet can live up to three times as long as grain-fed cows and are never subjected to unnatural diets, hormones or antibiotics. More time in pastures filled with lush grass means cows have the freedom to roam, ruminate and graze on diverse, nutrient-rich grasses. The result is happier, healthier cows, which in turn results in a richer, better-tasting and more nutrient-dense milk. 4. Sustainability and the Environment Producing milk without grain or corn requires farmers to focus on regenerating soil and the soil life that supports everything else on the farm. In fact, the healthier the soil, the healthier the feed, so farmers have a natural incentive to be as regenerative as possible. Regenerative grazing practices are a powerful and positive tool to improve land and the web of life on farms by actively restoring soil health, promoting biodiversity and reducing the environmental impact compared to conventional dairy. Well-managed grazing helps pull carbon from the atmosphere into the soil, fighting climate change in the process. In addition, healthier soil retains more water, reducing runoff and protecting water sources from agricultural pollution. 5. Strengthening the 100% Grass-Fed Organic Market Consumers are increasingly aware of the choices they have in dairy products and how 100% grass-fed organic supports their health, farmers, animals and the planet. Some ways to support this category’s continued growth include choosing certified 100% grass-fed organic dairy, advocating for regenerative farming and helping shape a more sustainable food system.

White Castle Unveils a Bounce House (er, Castle) as Part of Its New Line of Branded Merchandise for Spring 2025

Published

on

New merch collection also includes White Castle tin lunchbox, pickleball paddle set, playing cards, T-shirts and more.

COLUMBUS, OhioApril 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — White Castle is helping customers take their legendary Crave to new heights with the launch of a brand-new line of merchandise. The crown jewel of the spring 2025 collection? An 8-foot-tall bouncy castle with a design inspired by, you guessed it, an actual White Castle! This inflatable fun house reinforces that White Castle isn’t just about satisfying Cravings — it’s about creating memorable moments, too.

“Our House of Crave merchandise team really outdid themselves for this spring 2025 collection,” said Jamie Richardson, vice president at White Castle. “Looking ahead to the nicer weather, there is no more epic way to celebrate than with a Castle of your own!”   The one-of-a-kind White Castle Bouncy Castle is made to order and, at 12′ x 12′ x 8′ feet, is sized for Cravers of all ages. The new spring collection of merch, which is available exclusively at White Castle’s online store, House of Crave, also includes an array of smaller, though equally exciting, items:
  • A tin lunchbox. Retro meets modern with a never-before offered classic tin lunchbox. It’s perfect for Cravers of all ages, whether used for packing lunch, storing collectibles, or just showing off an affection for White Castle’s iconic Sliders.

  • Pickleball paddle set. As the home of The Original Slider®, White Castle is well-suited to help with your slide action on the pickleball court. Pick up a pair of these paddles and slide away!

  • Playing cards. No tricks here, just a simple deck of White Castle-branded playing cards.

  • “Only Beef” T-shirt. Proclaiming “The only beef between us is this Slider,” this T-shirt is best bought in pairs.

  • Knight-time craver T-shirt. “Dost thou even crave?” asks the knight who adorns this grey T-shirt holding a tray of Sliders.

  • A “Follow Your Crave” horn. This long plastic blue horn, similar to a vuvuzela (think soccer stadium noisemaker), can be blown when the Craving hits — or at any time, for that matter.

  • Pint glass. Raise this pint glass, painted with the White Castle logo, and toast to memorable moments.

  • Bucket hat. Anyone wearing this soft, wide-brimmed bucket hat, adorned with the White Castle logo, will look super cool eating Sliders.
White Castle’s House of Crave online store features dozens more White Castle-branded items, from tote bags, tumblers and ornaments to bathrobes, ballcaps and bathing suits. New items will be released seasonally throughout the year. “We have so many customers who are passionate about White Castle, and our House of Crave merchandise reflects that enthusiasm,” Richardson said. “From eye-catching apparel to fun collectibles, our online store offers a variety of unique items that allow our devoted fans to celebrate their love for White Castle any day of the week!” About White Castle® White Castle, America’s first fast-food hamburger chain, has been making hot and tasty Sliders since 1921. Based in Columbus, Ohio, the family-owned business owns and operates about 340 restaurants as well as a retail division providing its famous fare in freezer aisles of retail stores nationwide. As part of its commitment to offering the highest quality products, White Castle owns and operates its own Slider Provider meat plants, bakeries and frozen-Slider retail plants.
