The secret premise to ‘The Muppet Show’ is ‘The Muppet Show.’ PLUS: Godzilla isn’t the only kaiju in ‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ trailer, Nathan Fielder’s secret Elizabeth Holmes doc, and is ‘Whalefall’ gonna pull it off?
Lorne Michaels is still furious that he had to fire Gillis, and he’s never gonna let us forget it.
The promise of ‘glossy ribbons of buttery caramel flavor’ had me worried, but this is definitely better than a PSL soda.

Any brewery with a menu worth its snacking value should have a shareable pretzel on it. Like, a giant pretzel. Big enough where the table gets quiet and contemplates their life choices. That pretzel should come with two things: A mustard that’ll clear out your sinuses and a delicious beer cheese. (Both items should be included with the massive pretzel. Neither should be an extra charge.)
Cheez-It and Coors Light understand how important this is, unveiling a collab just in time for the “transition from backyard summer barbecues to football kickoffs this fall.”
While this flavor of Cheez-It promises to “[deliver] the crowd-pleasing taste of creamy beer cheese in one absurdly satisfying bite with a savory, tangy sauce profile and toasted spices,” I can’t actually say that these crackers taste like beer cheese to me. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t like them. I like them very much. The Coors Light Beer Cheese flavor translates into an amped-up Cheez-It with a bit of heat on the back end.
(Side note: I know that everyone thinks the best flavor of Cheez-It crackers is Extra Toasty, but I’m a huge fan of Cheez-It Ultimate Snack Mix. You get four cheesy snacks!)
