The companies said the Goldfish Hello Kitty Strawberry Shortcake Flavored Grahams, which come in Goldfish and Hello Kitty shapes, contain notes of vanilla and sweetness in every bite.

Perdue is debuting at-home wings that are formulated specifically to be used in the air fryer. 

The Air Fryer Ready Crispy Wings—available in roasted, hot n’ spicy and lemon pepper flavors—are made from chicken raised without antibiotics, hormones or steroids and fed an all-vegetarian diet, as well as raised cage free, the company said. 

Perdue is also releasing a limited quantity of the Ultimate at Home Wing Kit, which contains a new air fryer, which will be available on Dec. 11 at 12 PM EST for $10. 

“When ordering takeout, many of us have experienced the disappointing bite of not-so-crispy wings. Knowing 75% of households in the U.S. have air fryers, Perdue saw an opportunity to create the first of its kind chicken wing uniquely made for the air fryer, conveniently delivering the crispiest wings in just 16-18 minutes,” said Cody Walter, senior marketing manager at Perdue Foods. “To end the takeout vs. at-home wing debate, we wanted to show wing lovers the best way to wing is at home, and with an air fryer. That’s why we’re offering 100 limited release Ultimate at Home Wing Kits for less than the price of a standard takeout order, so you can skip takeout and enjoy crispy wings at home, anytime—whether it’s for football game days, upcoming family and friend gatherings, or a mealtime favorite.”

Consumers can find Perdue’s new Air Fryer Crispy Wings available for purchase at select retailers including ShopRite, Meijer, Safeway, Albertsons and Giant, as well as online.
