Jalapeños in sauvignon blanc? We tried the trend — and then some.

Washington Post11-06-2025
It seems that everything is getting hotter these days (see: the planet, and also Jennifer Lopez). Food, too, is amping up the heat.
Screens and grocery shelves are full of ultra-kicked-up chips and blazing wings, and there's hot honey everywhere. Which helps explain the appeal of a certain drink that might have crossed your social media feed, where people are swooning over glasses of sauvignon blanc garnished with slices of frozen jalapeño peppers.

Club Attempts Record for 'World's Largest Tamagotchi Wedding' as More Than 100 Digital Pets Wed in Ceremony

The Toronto Tamagotchi Club aimed to "make history" with its latest meet-up, and is submitting the results to Guinness World RecordsNEED TO KNOW A club in Toronto, devoted to the appreciation of Tamagotchis, attempted to set a world record for Tamagotchi marriages over the weekend The Toronto Tamagotchi Club announced the event a month before, and more than 100 Tamagotchis ended up getting married in one sitting on Sunday, Aug. 10 'Growing up into an adult, where this community has kind of become more niche, it's been harder to find people who have them," one attendee said of such fan eventsI now pronounce you... Tamagotchi and Tamagotchi! Dozens of Tamagotchi fans and collectors met up in Toronto on Sunday, Aug. 10, to witness and take part in what was touted as the "World's Largest Tamagotchi Wedding" — where more than 100 digital pets tied the knot. Toronto Tamagotchi Club first announced the mass digital pet wedding last month, revealing on Instagram that its members were angling for a Guinness World Record. While it's not yet clear if the strong showing of digital love did in fact break any records — Guinness did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for confirmation on Monday, Aug. 11 — the wedding event drew an impressive 180 people to the Cecil Community Centre in Toronto, according to Toronto Today. "What is a Tamagotchi wedding? Imagine a mass marriage, Tama style," the club wrote on Instagram. "Tama characters can get married to other devices in-game. Let's celebrate love and friendship in our community, and find your Tamagotchi character a mate IRL! Marry your Tamagotchi and make history, or come party to celebrate gotchi luv!" According to the Tamagotchi Wiki, while the toys were first made available in 1996, iterations of the digital pets introduced since 2004 have the ability to get hitched. There are multiple ways for Tamagotchis to tie the knot, including through interlocking two devices. Twoey Gray, the club's founder, told Toronto Today that the goal of Sunday's event was to make a 'mark on history," with no preexisting records on the books for Tamagotchi nuptials. Gray confirmed to the outlet that more than 100 digital pets got married during the ceremony, which kicked off around 1 p.m. local time. While the club still has to submit to Guinness World Records, the effort was certainly there. Organizers set up cards around the venue to direct Tamagotchi owners to those with a similar-model digital pet, making it easier to find a perfect match, according to Toronto Today. When that happens, the characters appear on each other's screens with confetti and hearts, prompting a new digital pet to be hatched from an egg. 'When I was 8, you'd be on the playground and there would be other kids that had them and you could match them together. But growing up into an adult, where this community has kind of become more niche, it's been harder to find people who have them," attendee Holden Levack told Toronto Today of connecting with other Tamagotchi fans.

Twoey first launched the group in 2022, telling Toronto Today that there's "something very equalizing about this game." Fellow Tamagotchi lovers seem to agree, as photos shared by the club on Sunday showed people packed into the venue, posing with pets and signing wedding cards. Some fans even brought giant congratulatory signage, wore wedding dresses of their own, and documented the fireworks that went down when their digital pets sealed their unions.

A DWTS Pro's Airport Fiasco Sends Fans Into a Frenzy: 'THIS IS GOLD'

A DWTS Pro's Airport Fiasco Sends Fans Into a Frenzy: 'THIS IS GOLD' originally appeared on Parade. From Daniella Karagach and Pasha Pashkov to Emma Slater and Alan Bersten and beyond, Dancing With the Stars has quite a few fan-favorite couples, but husband-and-wife duo Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy are arguably the most hilarious of them all. If you didn't think so, Chmerkovskiy's latest TikTok video might just have you sold… Yesterday (August 10), the DWTS pro shared a TikTok video at the airport with his wife — fellow DWTS pro Johnson — going through security together. Although going through security at the airport is pretty standard, in the video, Johnson is seen getting evaluated by the TSA worker while Chmerkovskiy pans over to the screen. With a red square around her nether region, said screen shows that Johnson's crotch area is what needed further investigation. As if that whole airport fiasco wasn't funny enough, the caption is what sent fans into a frenzy, comprised of just two emojis: '💣 🐱' Needless to say, fans had a field day in the comment section. 'Okay Val, you win #1 caption,' one fan wrote, while another added, 'LMAO THE CAPTION??? 😭' A third exclaimed, "VAL I'M CACKLING," summing up the sentiment of a majority of viewers. Regardless of the setback, it is safe to say that both Chmerkovskiy and Johnson made it to their destination safely, with the latter posting an Instagram reel on the plane captioned, "OMG I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!! NYC ✈️ Paris," later in the evening. For all of the updates regarding their European travels, it is safe to say we will be keeping up with both parties on Instagram until further notice: @jennajohnson and @valentin. A DWTS Pro's Airport Fiasco Sends Fans Into a Frenzy: 'THIS IS GOLD' first appeared on Parade on Aug 11, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
