Wingstop is gearing up for Halloween with a collaboration with Sour Patch Kids to launch the Sour Patch Kids Wicked Punch wings.

“Created by Wingstop’s flavor experts, Wicked Punch features a mischievous sour then sweet redberry glaze finished with Sour Patch Kids Bits for a wickedly fun twist, available across all proteins. … The result is the ultimate candy-meets-wings crossover, one of Wingstop’s wildest flavor creations yet,” it said.

The creation hits the menu October 23, when Club Wingstop members get the first taste of Sour Patch Kids Wicked Punch through exclusive early access. On October 27, the flavor expands to Wingstop menus nationwide and is available through November 5.

Meanwhile, Taco Bell teamed up with Duolingo to launch an all-new, limited-edition Duo Habanero Sauce, taco-fueled language lessons and a Duolingo x Taco Bell restaurant takeover in New York City.

The Duo Habanero Sauce is a limited-time sauce created exclusively for the Taco Bell x Duolingo collaboration. “Bright and tangy with fruity notes and a kick of habanero heat, the sauce delivers a vibrant balance of flavor and spice that builds with every bite,” Taco Bell said.

The limited-edition packets also bring Duo's language-learning world to Taco Bell's sauce with taco-inspired sayings across nine languages, including English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Portuguese, German, Korean, Mandarin and Japanese.

Over at Chipotle, the QSR is rolling out the “limited-edition Big Ass Chipotle Bag,” which is a larger-than-life take on a brand staple, created to celebrate Family Meals, Chipotle's digital-exclusive group offering.

With a 170-liter capacity, the Big Ass Chipotle Bag measures 36 inches wide, 24 inches tall and 12 inches deep.

Chipotle will give rewards members in the U.S. the chance to win a Big Ass Chipotle Bag through a multi-week digital sweepstakes. Each week, winners will be selected from rewards members who purchase a Family Meal through the Chipotle app or Chipotle.com automatically entered for a chance to win.
