All Pink Starburst Packs Are Coming Because Dreams Do Come True

March 8, 2017 by Chris Durso

all-pink-starburst

There are few things more soul-crushing than peeling open the top of a Starburst pack, only to reveal oranges or yellows, with a pink not showing up until candy 4 or 5. Don’t get me wrong, the lesser Starburst are fine… but if they were to go away suddenly, few people would mind.

Starburst has heard your silent cries, and will release All Pink packs. No yellows to skip over, no oranges to yell at, and no trying to decide if reds are actually the dominant Starburst [hint: they are not].

All Pink Starburst packs and large bags will be available for a limited time at Walmart, Target, Kroger, Walgreens, H-EB, Meijer and Amazon.

I got a very sweet #gift from @Starburst in the form of an ALL PINK PACK 😍😍😍 Thank you! pic.twitter.com/fDMWcgorE5

Ice Creams That Taste Like Color

April 8, 2015 by Chris Durso

When viewing colors… Do you ever wonder what they might taste like? If you’re Jeni Britton Bauer, of NYC’s Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, you not only have this thought process, but you go ahead and create a line of ice creams that taste like color.

After being inspired by the cut-outs of Henri Matisse, the vibrant colors of the paper led Jeni to create the Color Collection.

Although there aren’t many blue foodstuffs in the world, Jeni manages to capture the flavor of Ultramarine Blue with wild blueberries, raspberry extract, and pineapple. Cadmium Yellow incorporates crushed whole lemons, bergamot and white grapefruit.

The result… a line of tangible and very delicious colors, that are themselves a work of art. And, I’d like to color my belly with them. Available here.

Now I’d like a handful of purple, please…
