The Selena Gomez-inspired Oreos have officially hit stores.
The Limited Edition Selena Gomez Oreo Cookies are inspired by her love of horchata, according to Oreo, and include a layer of chocolate and cinnamon flavor creme atop a layer of sweetened condensed milk flavor creme with cinnamon sugar inclusions, sandwiched between two chocolate cinnamon flavored wafers.
According to the cookie brand, the new flavor "brings together Selena's passions and fandom into one deliciously dunkable bite."
In addition to the cookie, Gomez also created six unique embossments designed with her fans in mind, including one that spells out "Selenators." There's also one exclusive cookie, found in approximately every three packs, that features Gomez's signature, marking the first time Oreo has ever put an autograph on a cookie, the company said in May.
"Making my own OREO cookie was a lot of fun. I grew up loving them, so being able to be a part of the process was a full-circle moment," Gomez said in a news release. "I wanted to find a way for it to feel comforting and have a bit of nostalgia from my childhood. The cinnamon flavor gives it this horchata feel, and I'm excited for my fans to try it."

The cookies will also be available in Canada and Brazil on June 9, and fans in Australia and New Zealand can get them on June 17.
"Tapping into Selena's world—her cultural roots, her loyal fan base, her musical journey— propels the OREO brand's cultural relevance and playful personality to new heights," said Michelle Deignan, Vice President, OREO, US, in a news release. "This collaboration embodies our commitment to delighting our consumers in unexpected ways and further establishes our footprint in the music industry."

There was a case in the UK of a sexually transmitted allergic reaction. Basically, what happened was a woman who had an undiagnosed allergy to Brazil nuts had unprotected sex with her boyfriend after he had eaten them. She had an allergic reaction to his semen, which led doctors to do some testing on the woman's skin. Sure enough, his semen before eating nuts didn't cause any reaction, but after he ate Brazil nuts again, the semen caused another reaction. The immunologists involved believe it may be the first recorded case of a "sexually transmitted allergic reaction." Modern thong underwear was introduced by Fiorello La Guardia, the 99th mayor of New York City. Yes, the same La Guardia the airport is named after. Thongs as a concept were old hat by the time he got involved in 1939 — they were highly present in ancient Greece, Rome, and other cultures — but the mayor is recognized as the man responsible for bringing them into the mainstream.

But the "ghost" is actually a cardboard cutout of Ted Danson's character (which can be seen earlier in the film). Also, the apartment was a set built on a are a few theories as to how this rumor started — like how it was the studio trying to drive up VHS rentals.

Cap'n Crunch's full name is Horatio Magellan Crunch. Jack Nicholson grew up believing his mom, June, was his sister, and that his grandmother, Ethel May, was his mother.

Can Bad Bunny and Selena Gomez make Americans snack again?
What do Bad Bunny, Selena Gomez and Walton Goggins all have in common? It's not a red carpet premiere, but major food companies are hoping their star power will inspire Americans to snack again. Earnings from Mondelēz International, PepsiCo, General Mills, J.M. Smucker, and The Campbell's Company in recent weeks have all showed sluggish sales in North America. Consumers continue to pull back spending on name brand products, opting to either to buy cheaper store labels or not buy snacks at all. 'It's a difficult time because people are seeing their budgets get tighter, and as much as they enjoy snacking and snacking brands give them pleasure, it can be something to cut off their shopping lists,' said Jenny Zegler, director of Mintel Food and Drink, a consumer analysis firm. 'Snacking is more of a fun purchase.' So, companies are amping up the celebrity partnerships to lure eaters back. Salty and sweet Executives for Mondelēz, which makes numerous household staples like Ritz, Oreos and Wheat Thins, said on its July 29 earnings call that 'consumer anxiety' and a 'shift to essential items' hurt North American sales. The company reported a 3.5% decline in revenue. A standout was Ritz, which generated $1.5 billion in sales last year. But even that brand is experiencing a 'slowdown' in demand in recent months, according to Steven Saenen, the category president for savory snacks at Mondelēz, so it's looking to modernize. The 91-year-old salty cracker brand is introducing new flavors to attract Gen Z eaters, like a swicy-infleunced hot honey, offering value packs for cost-conscious consumers, and hiring superstar Bad Bunny. Saenen hopes the Bad Bunny collaboration will spark sales with the growing Latino demographic. The singer starred in Ritz's first-ever Super Bowl ad earlier this year, and the brand recently extended the partnership by sponsoring his sold-out residency in Puerto Rico. 'He's a true cultural icon for multicultural and Hispanic audiences,' Saenen told CNN. 'He's also a self-professed lover of the Ritz brand himself, so we think it's a perfect collaboration.' Another Mondelēz brand, Oreo, also partnered with a multi-hyphenated Latin superstar, Selena Gomez, to create a cookie inspired by her love of horchata, a cold, sweetened drink often made from ground rice or nuts and flavored with cinnamon. This follows the model of a successful Lady Gaga collaboration in 2020 and another with singer Post Malone in 2025. Celebrity-created flavors brought in new customers and helped grow its awareness among Gen Z. Partnerships have 'become even more important as consumers' purse strings tighten and they don't have a lot of disposable income to spend,' Michelle Deignan, vice president of Oreo US, previously told CNN. 'What we've seen is bringing credible partnership, like Selena, makes it worth it for consumers to part with their hard-earned cash.' A Mondelēz spokesperson said Gomez's cookie was one of its top three biggest launches for Oreo, but noted it was too early to offer specific numbers. Celeb collaborations help consumers justify a pricier purchase because they offer a 'crossover between one or two things that I know and I already love,' said Mintel's Zegler. 'Some of these brands are trying to stay relevant to consumers and remind them of the fun and the joy and the excitement that these brands can bring,' she added. And a dash of spicy Doritos, which recently released a new 'Golden Sriracha' flavor, hopes to emulate the success of 'Cool Ranch' and 'Nacho Cheese.' The PepsiCo-owned chip tapped Walton Goggins to help garner attention. 'The White Lotus' actor stars in a cheeky ad that spoofs 1970s adult films, playing a plumber making a house call to a blond bombshell. Just as the innuendo-filled conversation reaches its climax, Goggins ruins the moment by describing the leak using actual plumbing terms. 'You think the film's going to go in a 'spicy direction,' but Walton's character comes in with a plot twist before things go too far,' said James Wade, senior marketing director for Doritos. 'This idea is just like the chip — that it's going to be spicy, but it's really not.' PepsiCo could use a poke in the side: Volumes for its company's North American food division shrunk 1% in its most recent quarter. Category sales for corn chips, which Doritos sits in, also declined 1% for the year ending on July 26, according to NIQ. Zegler doesn't expect star collaborations to fade anytime soon, especially since the major food brands have an advantage over private labels: bigger ad budgets. 'Consumers rethinking how much they're going to buy of some of these brands is going to remain a constant, so that's where these limited edition releases or marketing campaigns might help keep a brand in the shopping cart,' she said. 'These crossovers help with that relevancy.'

Selena Gomez Shares Heartfelt Message to Fans Ahead of 33rd Birthday
Selena Gomez is reflecting on her latest trip around the sun by sending her fans a heartfelt message. 'As I prepare to celebrate my 33rd birthday, I can't help but reflect on the incredible journey that has brought me here. This past year has truly been the most beautiful year of my life, and I owe so much of that to all of you,' Gomez, 32, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, July 20. Gomez — who turns 33 on Tuesday, July 22 — shared her gratitude to her followers for their 'unwavering love and kindness.' 'Whether you cheered me on from the sidelines, shared in my highs and lows, or simply offered a listening ear, you have made this year unforgettable. I am extremely humbled and insanely appreciative of all your love,' she wrote. Selena Gomez Gushes Over Fiance Benny Blanco in Sweet Birthday Tribute: 'Glad You Were Born' Gomez continued, 'As I step into this new year, I'm filled with excitement and hope for what's to come. I look forward to sharing more moments with all of you, creating new memories, and continuing this beautiful journey together. MADLY LOVE YOU ALL 🥳.' Alongside the message, Gomez shared a series of snaps from a recent celebration where she rocked a jumpsuit adorned with sequins and featuring a deep v-neckline. In one image, Gomez posed with BFF Taylor Swift, while in another, Gomez locked lips with fiancé Benny Blanco. Gomez's year has certainly been a monumental one. In December 2024, Gomez and Blanco, 37, announced they were engaged after more than one year of dating. While the pair can't wait to walk down the aisle, Blanco explained that wedding planning has been on the slower side. 'We're both working on so many things that we haven't even had time to get into it but we're so excited,' Blanco said on an episode of the 'Therapuss with Jake Shane' podcast earlier this month. 'I think this summer, we're going to sit down and be like, 'OK, what are we doing hun?'' He continued, 'We've both been working so much. We got engaged and then it's holidays and then we had to start all the promo for our stuff. Then she left to film her show, Only Murders [in the Building], and then I met her and we hung out for a week and then it's promo and then I'm writing another book.' Despite the slow start, Blanco is confident their nuptials will be one to remember. 'It will be chill,' he said. 'It will be amazing.' Solve the daily Crossword
