The Krabby Patty is coming to Wendy's restaurants nationwide for a limited time. Yes, really.
Are you ready, kids (and adults)?
Wendy's announced Wednesday it is partnering with Paramount to celebrate the 25th anniversary of "SpongeBob SquarePants" by launching the "Krabby Patty Kollab."
The "Kollab" features two menu items that will be available at Wendy's restaurants nationwide for a limited time:
- Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty: A vanilla Frosty with a pineapple mango flavored puree swirl − a first-of-its-kind Frosty flavor innovation.
- Krabby Patty Kollab Burger: The restaurant's take on the famous cartoon burger features a quarter pound of beef, two slices of melty American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, and a "top-secret Krabby Kollab sauce" on a toasted bun.
Both menu items will be available nationwide in the U.S., Canada and Guam beginning Tuesday, Oct. 8, Wendy's said in a news release Wednesday. Customers in Los Angeles can get an exclusive first taste of the Krabby Patty Kollab Meal on Monday, Oct. 7 and Tuesday, Oct. 8 through an "immersive Wendy's drive-thru experience" in Panorama City, Wendy's said.
"It makes sense that two of the most iconic squares in pop culture are teaming up to bring a taste of this unique, limited-time experience to life for fans of all ages!" said Lindsay Radkoski, U.S. Chief Marketing Officer for The Wendy’s Company, in the news release.
