Zooper Dooper-flavoured Twisties are now a thing (and we have some thoughts)
Over the past few years, Twisties has been getting quite… experimental.
From sherbet-y Raspberry Twisties to fancy Caviar Twisties, and a collab with Donut King, Twisties has enlightened us to some pretty wacky flavours — some we've loved more than others.
(Twisties if you're reading this, I need Caviar Twisties back in my life.)
Now, Twisties has dropped another salty-sweet chip that's like eating our childhood in one wriggly, crunchy snack.
Meet… Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss
If I could sum up my childhood of snacking in one snack it would 100% be these Twisties.
Our favourite chip and arguably the best flavour in a packet of Zooper Doopers have come together to create one sweet and crunchy, candy-coloured snack.
Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss combines the crunch and taste of a Twistie with the sweet, pink fairy floss flavour of a Fairy Floss Zooper Dooper.
A spokesperson for Twisties said: 'Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss is the ultimate Aussie creation! It's a flavour that is reminiscent of our childhoods in the most unexpected way possible.
Doesn't sound too bad T.B.H.
What the taste team thinks of Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss
As professional snackers, we feel our opinion really matters when it comes to a chip, especially a weird chip!
This is a snack that seriously divided the team. Some loved the sweet and salty combo while others were more of the mindset that 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' (give 'em a packet of regular Twisties any day).
If you're a lolly lover, love a salty-sweet flavour combo (think slightly sweet, slightly salty popcorn), then you'll love the Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss.
When will I be able to buy Twisties Zooper Dooper Fairy Floss?

1994 KFC advertisement stuns Australians in 2025
Australians have been stunned at the former price of a KFC 'Family Value Feast' after an old advert from three decades ago went viral. The fried chicken giant launched a television ad in 1994, which featured musicians Red Symons and Wilbur Wilde, to advertise its $19.95 family feed. It included a whole 'tender roast' chicken, a large chips, potato wedges, coleslaw, potato and gravy, four dinner rolls and an entire Black Forest cake. 'So much food, so little money,' states the advertisement's catchphrase. The price tag of $19.95 in 1994 has the same purchasing power of $44.69 in 2025, thanks to the 2.64 per cent inflation rate between the decades. But, of course, social media users couldn't help but gawk at just how much food could be purchased for less than the cost of a $20 bill. '$19.95 gets you burger meal with nuggets and sundae nowadays,' one social media user said. One added: 'It all started to go downhill after that deal.' 'Zinger box costs pretty the same these days,' another quipped. While one joked: 'My mum still complains about not being able to get that cake anymore.' 'Miss those days, and the 21 pieces of original recipe chicken for $21,' another said. One simply added: 'What a time to be alive.' '$19.95 would just cover a bird today,' another said. One begged: 'BRING THIS BACK.' 'Now it's $19.95 for the chips,' teased someone else, while another said it used to be 'so cheap'. One commented: 'Now it would be $99.95.' '1994: So much food for so little money. 2024: so little food for so much money,' another said. One said: 'I miss the KFC wedges and Tender Roast tasted really good, although modern 'bachelor's handbags' from Colesworths are not bad these days.' 'We use to get a bucket of chicken, large coleslaw, large potato and gravy litre of soft drink and two large chips for $22,' one added. KFC has since responded to viral chatter, stating that while the prices have changed, it hasn't stopped serving up tasty food. 'While our menu has evolved over the years to meet changing tastes and preferences, one thing hasn't changed: our commitment to finger lickin' good chicken,' a KFC spokesperson told 'Roast chooks and Black Forest cakes may have flown the coop, but we're always cooking up brand-new menu items like our Zinger Kebab, which is now available nationwide for the very first time.'

Wednesday star Jenna Ortega attends Sydney event as major plot twist on hit Netflix series
Warning: Contains spoilers from Wednesday Season 2, Part 2 The stars of Netflix's hit series Wednesday descended on Sydney's Cockatoo Island on Thursday afternoon – and the overcast Sydney weather was a perfect backdrop for the event. Clad in her character's signature dark attire, titular star Jenna Ortega put on a haunting appearance alongside Emma Myers – who plays her cheerful best friend Enid Sinclair – as they attended an 'Outcast Assembly' on the famed island to promote Season 2 of the gothic series. Joining them at the event was the master of the macabre himself Tim Burton, who is the director and executive producer of the show. 'I love the character,' the Oscar nominee told the crowd about the iconic Wednesday Addams. 'I agree with everything she says, everything she feels a about family, school, psychiatry and society, so that's why we're here in this beautiful place. It's something I really identify with.' The trio are in Sydney for the final stop on the global Doom Tour, and are also joined by series creator/showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar. The group have visited England, Poland, Italy, France, Romania, the US, Canada and South Korea. But they left a major announcement for their last and final stop in Sydney. In dramatic scenes, actress Gwendoline Christie emerged from behind a giant moon suspended from the warehouse ceiling to reveal in a world-exclusive announcement that her character, Nevermore Academy headmistress Larissa Weems, will be brought back from the dead in Season 2. 'Did you really think Nevermore would let me go so easily,' her voice echoed in the warehouse. 'I was never gone. You just stopped looking.' Fans would know that Weems, a shapeshifter, was the former roommate of Wednesday's mum Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones) when they were at school and would later become the principal of Nevermore Academy, where Wednesday and Enid attend. Weems was a major character on Season 2 and many fans were left shocked when she was tragically poisoned with a laced syringe by the deranged Laurel Gates, aka Marilyn Thornhill aka Christina Ricci. 'This season we'll see a different of Larissa Weems' suffering,' Christie later told the crowd, which was filled with superfans dressed in the purple Nevermore uniforms. 'It's such an honour,' Ortega said from the stage when asked about being back in black as Wednesday. 'Oftentimes you don't get to revisit your character, so to be able to do it with some like Wednesday. I feel very, very lucky.' Burton, Ortega and Myers will again take centre stage on Saturday at Cockatoo Island when the harbour attraction is transformed into Wednesday Island – a makeshift purple playground where fans lucky enough to secure tickets can walk through a gauntlet of haunting experiences, such The Raven's Passage and The Dead Lounge, while also taking a peek at The Doll House and Wednesday and Enid's Room. Season 2 sees Wednesday return to Nevermore Academy with her razor-sharp remarks and deadpan demeanour. Armed with her sharp detective skills, she soon finds herself obsessing over a new supernatural mystery that sees her get up to all sorts of kooky mayhem. Despite almost a three-year break between Seasons 1 and 2, Netflix numbers show that there was a zero per cent drop in viewership when Season 2: Part 1 premiered on August 6. According to Forbes, Wednesday got 50 million views in its first five days of streaming, which puts it on par with the Season 1 debut in November 2022. It's worth noting that Season 1 premiered with all eight episodes in one drop, whereas Season 2 premiered with only the first four episodes, with Part 2 premiering on Netflix on September 3. Therefore, expect another viewership spike next month.

‘Boycott': Aussies fume over Netflix's latest price hikes
Aussie Netflix users have been quick to call out the streaming giant following its sixth price increase since entering the Australian market in 2015. On Wednesday, the platform announced all subscription tiers would be impacted as early as September this year. Understandably, it's not been met with open arms by users already impacted by the cost-of-living pinch. Taking to social media, users even threatened to 'cancel' their subscriptions as they vented their frustrations. 'Greedy company. Raising prices multiple times per year will only push more ships into the sea,' one person said. 'Boycott Netflix. Raising prices again...,' another added. Aussies react to Netflix price rises. Credit: Supplied In response to the promotion of the Netflix original film My Oxford Year, other Netflix subscribers argued the quality of content available for streaming didn't warrant the uptick in price. 'Worst content on your platform in history losing so many shows and you think you need a price increase 😂,' one user said. 'Another price increase? Cancel time,' another chimed in. Subscribers on Netflix's two standard plans will be forced to part with an extra $2 every month, with the 'standard with ads' option shifting from $7.99 to $9.99, and the ad-free Standard plan now set at $20.99 monthly. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have become regular features on Netflix.

According to tech site Tom's Guide, Netflix's initial prices for Australian users were $8.99 monthly for a basic ad-free plan and $14.99 for premium access, making today's Premium option nearly double the cost. Netflix said the higher prices would allow them 'to bring you even more exciting, new entertainment', promising 'fresh, can't-miss shows and movies every week'.
