Nutella unveils its first-ever new flavor in 60 years: Here's when it will hit U.S. shelves
Nutella is making history with the launch of its first-ever new flavor in six decades. Since debuting in 1964, the beloved hazelnut spread has become a household favorite worldwide, known for its signature taste and loyal fan base. Despite its massive popularity, Nutella has never officially launched a new flavor—until now, marking a major moment for the iconic brand. Also Read: Hooters announces shutdown of over 30 restaurants: See full list of which locations closed In a press statement earlier this week, Ferraro, the parent company, revealed a new Peanut Nutella flavor. The company called the new flavour 'a bold yet natural evolution for a product rooted in tradition but ready to surprise,' adding that it 'combines the distinctive creaminess of Nutella cocoa hazelnut spread with the delicious taste of roasted peanuts,' as reported by the Daily Mail. The Chicago Tribune revealed that the production of the new product will also begin in the US at its Franklin Park and Ferraro will 'invest $75 million in the plant'. This will also generate new job opportunities. Seth Gonzalez, Nutella's senior director of marketing, clarified that the new product should not be mistaken for peanut butter. He told Tribune, 'We didn't want it to be another peanut butter; there's a reason why cocoa is still connected as a peanut-and-cocoa formula, instead of just peanuts.'

Despite global excitement, the new flavor will be available exclusively in the United States. Michael Lindsay, who is the President and Chief Business Officer of Ferrero North America, shared, 'Developing Nutella and Ferrero Rocher products specifically for the North American market represents a defining moment in our company's history,' as reported by the Daily Mail. He added that these new products are designed to connect with both 'loyal fans' and 'new consumers', strengthening Ferrero's leading position in North America

Mayor Sadiq Khan calls on WWE to bring WrestleMania to London
Image via WWE London Mayor Sadiq Khan has once again publicly pitched the idea of bringing WWE 's biggest annual event, WrestleMania, to the British capital. In a recent interview during a CNBC panel at SXSW London, Khan made a direct appeal to WWE Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque, saying, 'Triple H, if you're watching, we want WrestleMania to come to London. ' This isn't the first time Khan has championed the idea. He previously held talks with Levesque and WWE President Nick Khan in July last year. But his latest statement has reignited discussions about whether the spectacle dubbed the 'Super Bowl of Wrestling' could finally move beyond North American shores. London as the ideal WrestleMania destination Khan positioned London as the ideal host, calling it the 'sporting capital of the world.' Backing his claim, he pointed to the city's long-standing history of hosting major global events - from Wimbledon and the Premier League to American football matchups and the 2012 Olympics. 'If WrestleMania came to London, we wouldn't just have a great weekend - we'd have a festival,' he said. 'A celebration featuring WWE legends, current stars, and the next generation of talent.' WWE In London? Triple H and Nick Khan Talk WrestleMania With Sadiq Khan Speculation about London as a potential WrestleMania venue has been ongoing since 2023, when John Cena made a surprise appearance at a WWE event in the city and endorsed the idea. Fans across the UK and Europe have echoed that sentiment, calling for WWE to bring its marquee show to a wider international audience. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Costco Shoppers Say This Wrinkle Cream Is "Actually Worth It" The Skincare Magazine Undo If the move does happen, it would mark the first time in WrestleMania history that the event is held outside North America. WWE's global expansion in full swing The renewed pitch from Khan comes at a time when WWE is rapidly expanding its global footprint. Earlier this year, the company moved its flagship show, Monday Night RAW, to Netflix globally - a major step in reaching new international audiences and strengthening its presence outside the U.S. Recent international premium live events like Clash at the Castle in Cardiff, Elimination Chamber in Perth, and Backlash France have all been received with overwhelming enthusiasm. These successes have shown that WWE can generate sell-out crowds and passionate fan bases far beyond its traditional markets. Khan believes the timing couldn't be better for WWE to take its biggest show to London. 'I think the potential has not been reached,' he said. 'If WrestleMania wants to expand, the obvious place to come is London. We have the infrastructure, the fanbase, and the global spotlight to make it the most successful WrestleMania yet.' As WWE explores new markets and cities, London's persistent bid may be inching closer to reality.

TNT's Kenny Albert wraps up a memorable 9-month stretch with the Stanley Cup Finals
Getting to call a Stanley Cup final for the third time on national television would qualify as the top moment of the year for most announcers. For TNT's Kenny Albert, it is another accomplishment that has been filled with many over the past nine months. Wednesday's first game between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers will be Albert's 1,483rd call in either hockey, football or baseball for a national network. He moved past his father, the legendary Marv Albert, into fourth place among North American announcers during last Wednesday's Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals between Florida and Carolina. 'To be listed along with some of the all-time greats who I watched growing up and then got to know a lot of them personally, it's a proud moment when you see that you're included in that group,' Albert said. 'My schedule definitely is a bit of a jigsaw puzzle between the various sports and networks, but very fortunate to work for and with so many great people.' Albert surpassed the 500 games mark in both the NFL and NHL within a six-month period. He became the first NFL play-by-play announcer to reach 500 games on one network last October when the Philadelphia Eagles hosted the Cleveland Browns on Fox. He has been with Fox Sports since its beginning in 1994. He also surpassed 500 national NHL games on Dec. 18 when the Philadelphia Flyers faced the Detroit Red Wings on TNT. Albert has been TNT's top hockey announcer since it got the rights in 2021. All told, Albert has done 534 NHL, 512 NFL, 421 baseball and 15 NBA games on a national broadcast or cable network. That is on top of his other duties as New York Rangers radio voice and backup for New York Knicks television games on MSG Network. Albert's versatility to do a plethora of different sports was something he picked up from his father. Even though Marv Albert's signature sport was the NBA, he also did the NFL and NHL along with hosting the baseball pregame show during the late 1980's on NBC. 'I've always loved the variety,' Kenny Albert said. For all of the aforementioned accomplishments though, the highlight of Albert's year so far was calling Alex Ovechkin's 895th NHL goal on April 6 to break Wayne Gretzky's career record. Albert's call during the second period, when the Washington Capitals star set the record against the New York Islanders relayed excitement, while also mentioning the goal number and then going silent so that the crowd and scenes from the crowd could take over. 'In a championship situation or big moment, I don't usually write something out but I do throw some words around in my mind just to be ready,' Albert said. "I was thinking something with his nickname, the Great Eight, the great Gretzky. When he tied the record, Joe Beninati used something similar to that, so I wanted to shift over to something else and not use some of the same words he did. 'What it happened, it just came out naturally. I mentioned number 895 and then I just got out of the way. It was very important after the call to just lay out and let the production folks do their thing. Let the pictures and sound tell the story.' According to TV database research compiled by Un/Necessary Sports Research, the late Bob Cole, who called the games for CBC's 'Hockey Night in Canada' for 50 years, leads the way at 1,722 games; followed by Dick Stockton, who did basketball, baseball and football for CBS and Fox, with 1,544; and Canadian play-by-play announcer Chris Cuthbert with 1,539. Cuthbert, the current lead voice for 'Hockey Night in Canada' will surpass Stockton if the Stanley Cup Finals goes six games. Kevin Harlan is sixth at 1,477 and should surpass Marv Albert for fifth during Week 5 of the upcoming NFL season. This will be the 11th Stanley Cup Final for Albert, including eight on radio, but the first where he has called a rematch from the previous year. This is the first final rematch since the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins in 2009 and the second over the past 40 years. 'It has a chance to be one of the all-time great championship series," Albert said. "These same teams played a scintillating seven-game series last June. Star power on both sides. Edmonton attempting to win Canada's first Cup since 1993. Florida looking to repeat. Can Connor McDavid match Wayne Gretzky and Sidney Crosby and win his first Stanley Cup against the team that beat his club in the Cup Final the year before? I can't wait.' NHL: /hub/nhl
