As SpongeBob SquarePants once famously exclaimed, “I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready!” Have you ever wondered what a Krabby Patty tastes like? Well, now you can find out thanks to Wendy’s! The beloved burger from the Nickelodeon cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants, which first aired in 1999, is being brought to life for fans to enjoy the taste of the Krusty Krab from Bikini Bottom. This exciting collaboration between Nickelodeon, Paramount, and Wendy’s coincides with the show’s 25th-anniversary celebration. Dario Spina, the CMO of Paramount Brand Studio, expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, “Wendy’s pulse on pop culture and connection to fans makes this collaboration a perfect match for Paramount, and we’re looking forward to delivering memorable and immersive experiences through custom creative, engaging social content, and recognizable influence.”
Fans have been eagerly anticipating the release of the Wendy’s Krabby Patty Meal, and Wendy’s has been teasing the meal with SpongeBob memes to keep the excitement high. The meal officially made its debut at Wendy’s on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, after being announced on October 2 with a playful reference to the show’s iconic news fish character and his famous catchphrase, “BBBBRRREAKING NEWWWS.”
While Wendy’s has not announced an official end date for the Krabby Patty Meal special, they have mentioned that it is available for a “limited time,” so fans should grab it while they can to experience a taste of Bikini Bottom.
So, what exactly is included in the SpongeBob Krabby Patty Meal? The meal features a Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty, which is a delicious blend of Wendy’s Vanilla Frosty with Pineapple Mango flavor. In addition to the frosty, the meal comes with Wendy’s classic fries and a quarter-pounder burger, complete with buns, lettuce, beef patty, tomato, pickles, onions, two slices of cheese, and a special “top-secret” sauce. This secret sauce is a nod to Mr. Krabs’ secretive nature on the show, as he goes to great lengths to protect the Krabby Patty formula from his rival, Plankton. A spokesperson from Wendy’s shared with USA Today, “Our top-secret Krabby Kollab sauce is a closely guarded recipe that makes the first bite of the Krabby Patty Kollab Burger worth the wait for SpongeBob SquarePants fans and Wendy’s customers alike.”
Overall, the Wendy’s Krabby Patty Meal is a fun and exciting way for fans of SpongeBob SquarePants to enjoy a taste of the iconic Krabby Patty while celebrating the show’s milestone anniversary. Be sure to head to your nearest Wendy’s to indulge in this limited-time offering before it swims away!
