The Snack Wrap is back at McDonald's: What to know, when you can order it
The wait is over. After months of teasing from McDonald's, the day has arrived for the Snack Wrap to return. Customers can order the much-anticipated menu item starting Thursday, July 10. The item is available in two flavors: Spicy: The Spicy Snack Wrap brings the heat with a habanero kick that fans know and love from the Spicy McCrispy sandwich. Ranch: The Ranch Snack Wrap delivers a satisfying burst of cool ranch goodness, with hints of garlic and onion. The Snack Wrap is available a la carte or as a combo meal, which includes two Snack Wraps, a medium fry and a drink of choice. The item costs $2.99 a la carte. Customers can order the Snack Wrap after breakfast hours. Breakfast hours differ by McDonald's location, although most locations typically stop serving breakfast at 10:30 or 11 a.m. local time. Spicy McMuffins: McDonald's new spicy breakfast items are here: How long they're available The Snack Wrap first hit the McDonald's menu in 2006. Over the next decade, it appeared on the menu in several different iterations, according to the Food Network, but with the same main ingredients of chicken breast meat (grilled or crispy), lettuce, cheese and sauce in a soft flour tortilla. According to McDonald's, the Snack Wrap was phased out nationally in 2016, but it "never left fans' hearts." "From countless social media posts to full-fledged petitions, they never gave up on their favorite menu item. They're the ones who inspired us to make its return to the menu happen," McDonald's said. The Snack Wrap features one of McDonald's new McCrispy Strips, topped with shredded lettuce and shredded cheese and wrapped in a soft flour tortilla, according to the chain. In addition to the Snack Wrap, McDonald's has unveiled a series of new options to "spice up" its breakfast menu as part of the chain's 50th anniversary celebrations for the McMuffin. The three new spicy breakfast menu items include the Spicy McMuffin, Spicy Sausage McMuffin and Spicy Sausage McMuffin with Egg. The items feature the traditional ingredients of cheese, egg, Canadian bacon or sausage and a buttered English muffin, but are topped with a new Spicy Pepper Sauce, according to McDonald's. The new breakfast items dropped in stores on 8 and will be around for a limited time at participating locations, according to the fast food chain. McDonald's launched the Egg McMuffin in 1975. The breakfast item was the brainchild of Herb Peterson, a McDonald's franchisee in Santa Barbara, California.

Chipotle brings back viral avocado-inspired lip stain: Here's how to buy it
Back by popular demand, Chipotle is re-launching its best-selling makeup product – yes, you read that right – the "Lipotle" lip stain. The metallic, avocado-inspired lip stain goes on green and then is to be wiped off to reveal a budge-proof, and obviously eat-proof, rose color underneath. The lip stain is available exclusively on the Wonderskin website, starting Tuesday, July 15. Chipotle and Wonderskin, a cosmetics brand, first launched its "Lipotle" Wonder Blading Peel & Reveal Lip Stain Kit in July 2024 for National Avocado Day. The stain was Wonderskin's fastest to ever sell out, according to a news release, and the company received more than 10,000 emails and comments requesting a re-stock. Here's what to know about "Lipotle" and how to get your hands on the viral shade. Here's why: 'Sephora kids' trend prompts bill to ban kids from purchasing makeup (again). "Lipotle" is a part of Wonderskin's masque collection, lip stains that are to be applied and then peeled off to reveal a shade underneath. Customers should apply "Lipotle" and watch a metallic green foil tint dry on their lips within about 30 seconds. The tint can be left on for up to 60 seconds for a darker shade. Wonderskin then recommends spraying the foil with its Wonder Blading Activator to "lock in the pigment." This activator is sold with the "Lipotle" Wonder Blading Peel & Reveal Lip Stain Kit. Next, peel off the foil to reveal a nude-rose shade underneath that Wonderskin says lasts up to 10 hours. The "Lipotle" lip stain is available for $29. The "Lipotle" lip stain is available exclusively on the Wonderskin website, starting Tuesday, July 15. National Avocado Day is Thursday, July 31.

24 states have legalized marijuana for medical and recreational use. Where does Indiana stand?
In 2025, marijuana is fully legal in 24 states and Washington DC. Although the Indiana legislature once again tried this year to pass laws legalizing medical and recreational use of marijuana, just like previous attempts, those bills ultimately died by the end of the legislative session. Here's where Indiana's marijuana laws and cannabis regulations currently stand and what the laws look like in other states. No. In Indiana, weed is not legal for recreational or medical use. CBD, Delta-9 THC and THCA, which are alternatives to marijuana, are available for legal purchase at vape shops in Indiana as long as those levels don't exceed the legal limit. Any THC product with a higher level than 0.3% is classified as marijuana and therefore still illegal. Cannabis cheat code: Marijuana is illegal in Indiana, but this loophole makes it complicated Marijuana is legal for both recreational and medicinal use in 24 states and the District of Columbia as of April 2025, according to DISA Global Solutions. The states are listed below: 46 states, Washington DC and three U.S. territories have approved some form of cannabis for medicinal use. Nebraska is the most recent state to vote in favor of medical marijuana. Story continues after photo gallery. Marijuana was banned federally in 1970 with the passage of the Controlled Substances Act, which classified marijuana as a Schedule 1 drug. More on cannabis: What's the difference between Delta 8 THC and marijuana or 'weed'? Marijuana is fully illegal for both medicinal and recreational use and has not been decriminalized in four states: There are also a few states where medical and recreational marijuana isn't legalized, but is decriminalized.
