The Dunkin’ Valentine’s Day Menu Is Officially Back With 2 “Most Requested” Donut Flavors

Best Overall: Chili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips

Widely known as a wonderful dupe for Takis, Trader Joe's Chili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips ($3) topped the charts by winning Best Overall. They're "tastefully tangy" and "definitely spicy," but each bite balances the two flawlessly. They make for a delightful mid-day snack or even a midnight snack, if you're feeling it.

Best New: Cashel Blue Cheese Irish Potato Chips

According to TJ's, these limited-edition crisps (they were available over the holidays) are sourced from an Irish supplier that employs Irish potatoes and Cashel Blue cheese, resulting in a tangy and salty bite every single time. Their unique and pungent flavor profile makes them the ultimate candidate for charcuterie boards!

Best Beverage: Spiced Cider

Another famed holiday item, the Spiced Cider easily snagged the #1 spot for Best Beverage. It's yummy hot or iced, and its apple-y sweetness is just the perfect fit for cozy season.

Best Cheese: Goat Cheese

This $3 log of plain goat cheese has proved it's truly the G.O.A.T. by garnering tons of votes for Best Cheese. The Chevre cheese is is "fresh, soft, and unaged," so it's ideal to form into homemade dips or even spread on top of bruschetta.

Best Produce: Teeny Tiny Avocados

These marvelous avocados come in a single-serve size, which is so nice to have on-hand especially if you live alone – or just tend to eat avos quite slowly. A single bag goes for $4, adding to the 'bang for your buck' factor.

Best Appetizer: Creamy Spinach & Artichoke Dip

And the winner for Best Appetizer goes to... this delicious spinach & artichoke dip! It heats up easily in the oven to turn into a bubbly, gooey, cheesy pot that you can easily dip breads, crackers, and veggies into.

Best In Breakfast + Brunch: Hashbrowns

Hashbrowns have taken the cake for Best In Breakfast + Brunch items. And it's no surprise, really – they're such a yummy and dependable pick to keep in the freezer when you want something savory in the morning. They taste just like McDonald's hashbrowns, but you get 10 patties for $3.

Best In Lunch + Dinner: Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice

TJ's touts their Butter Chicken to be filled with "chunks of chicken enrobed in a mild, mouth-watering curry crafted of crushed tomatoes, cream, onions, garlic, ginger, butter." Yummm. This spicy meal is quickly ready to go with some basmati rice after just a few minutes in the microwave.

Best In Bath, Body, + Home: Brazil Nut Body Butter

This rich body butter has been one of the best Trader Joe's beauty products for years now. It smells like absolute heaven with notes of salted caramel, pistachio, coconut, and vanilla and boasts a unique whipped texture that melts onto the skin.

Runners-up for the Best In Bath, Body, + Home include: Daily Facial Sunscreen SPF 40, Coconut Body Butter, Leave In Conditioner, and Lavender Spray Hand Sanitizer.

Best Snack: Chili & Lime Flavored Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips

The Takis dupe returns! Appearing for a second time on this year's Customer Choice Awards list and a sixth time over the years, this spicy snack finally snagged a spot on the Trader Joe's Hall of Fame.

Best Sweet Treat: Sublime Ice Cream Sandwiches

Ice cream sandwiches are a total classic, especially when they come covered in chocolate chips. This $5 dessert won Best Sweet Treat this year, among other sugary favorites like Almond Kringle, Hold the Cone! Chocolate Chip, Jingle Jangle, and Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds.

The first major change? Free refills. Yep – Starbucks is offering free refills to customers who order their drinks “for here.” Customers can order any beverage in a ceramic mug, glass or clean personal cup, and they can receive free refills of brewed coffee (hot or iced) and brewed tea (hot or iced) in the same visit.

All “for here” orders will be handed off in a Starbucks ceramic mug or glass, or a clean personal cup if you choose to bring one along. Your first "for here" beverage can be any drink, though the free refill offer only includes brewed coffee (hot or iced) and brewed tea (hot or iced).

Note that cold brew, nitro cold brew, any Iced Tea Lemonade, flavored iced teas, and Starbucks Refreshers are not available as refills.

Secondly, the condiment bar is finally back at participating Starbucks stores! This means you can customize your own drink on your own terms with an array of creamers, milks, and sweeteners.

The Starbucks condiment bar essentially disappeared during COVID out of safety concerns, so this year will mark the first time it’s back in cafes in just about 5 years! As someone who almost always craves a sweeter drink, this news is so nice since it will streamline my coffee runs.

These two new changes (“coffeehouse amenities” as Starbucks calls them) are likely Starbucks' latest move in their ‘back to Starbucks’ initiative. New CEO Brian Niccol first surfaced the idea in an open letter to Starbucks partners, customers and stakeholders in September 2024, stating that he’d be “refocusing on what has always set Starbucks apart.” He noted that one of the first steps would be investing in technology that improves the customer experience.

1. Old School Track-Inspired Sneakers

Puma Speedcat OG Sneakers

In 2025, we're reimagining the ever-popular three-striped sneaker, especially with designs like this that recall popular retro track and field sneakers.

The single-stripe Puma Speedcats have been spotted on numerous celebs already, so they're bound to explode into the fashion canon quite soon. Snag your suede- and leather-covered pair in this simple black + white combo for endless outfit possibilities!

SeaVees Acorn Trainers

If you prefer your sneaks to provide a nice pop of color, opt for these trainers from SeaVees. This bright yellow colorway is truly living in my mind rent-free, but they also come in many more playful hues like red, green, and blue. Oh, they're also extremely comfy on the feet – they'll be perfect for you if you're on your feet frequently.

Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Sneakers

The Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66's hit the scene hard around the same time as the Adidas Sambas did, growing popular for their sporty, streamlined silhouette. You can snag 'em in plenty of different colors – I personally love this yellow + green + red combo since it sets you up nicely for pairing with pants, skirts, sweaters, and the like.

2. Velcro Sneakers

Steve Madden Momentum Sneakers

I'm fully on-board with this next 2025 sneaker trend – AKA ditching pesky laces for some simpler velcro bands. Not only do these velcro-ed sneaks expedite the getting-ready process, they also add some cool visual intrigue to the bottom half of your 'fits.

Veja Recife Sneakers

These black Vejas boast a contrasting gum sole that really channels skater style – and I love it.

Charlotte Stone Conway Sneakers

Take the colorful route with this insanely cute mismatched pair. The plethora of colors and easy velcro bands on 'em are making my inner child sohappy.

3. Stark White Sneakers

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Low Top Sneakers

Now onto the very opposite of the fun color spectrum. Stark white sneakers will be huge in 2025, especially cult-classic styles like these Converse kicks. They're easy to wear and pair, but the tricky part is just keeping them clean.

Madewell Sidewalk Low Top Sneakers

When it comes to this sneaker trend, low-profile sneaks are the way to go. I think they'd be even more fun to wear with some colorful socks!

Sam Edelman Pippy Platform Sneakers

For a lil' boost in height, opt for some punchy platforms. When it comes to low-top sneakers like this, cropped pants or jeans work wonderfully.

4. Technical Sneakers

Salomon XT-6 Sneakers

This sneaker trend is by far my favorite for 2025 – likely because it speaks to the hiker in me – but technical sneakers aren't necessarily limited to outdoor adventure wear anymore! Technical sneakers still offer you all the benefits meant for athletic use, but people are wearing them way more casually these days.

Sneaks like the Salomon XT-6's (deemed 'sportstyle' shoes) have definitely earned their streetwear title, even though they were originally developed for long-distance runs in harsh conditions.

Sandy Liang's (now sold-out, but so cute) collaborative designs with Salomon showcase that these sneakers tap more into 'style' rather than 'sport', boasting ribbon laces and pristine baby pink colorways.

Keen Jasper Zionic Sneakers

Keen is another big brand when it comes to stylish technical sneaks. Their Jasper sneaker design is clearly climbing-inspired, functioning as an approach shoe if you were to hit the crag.

Though they speak strongly to my love for climbing, I'd also say that they're just as cool when worn on the streets. They've jazzed up the classic Jasper in this Jasper Zionic silhouette with more traction on the soles and 3 equally iconic colorways.

Merrell Moab 3 Camo Waterproof Sneakers

Finally, these hiking sneakers are an undeniable fit for everyday fashion – the more-femme color palette is too cute. You could easily style them with the right skirt or mini dress. Plus, when it comes to trending colors, this brown + pink (I call it Neapolitan, like the ice cream flavor) pairing will be everywhere in 2025.

5. Ballet Sneakers

Jeffrey Campbell Athletic Sneakers

Ballet sneakers are slowly becoming more and more popular. I love that they offer the cuteness of a ballet flat, but the comfort of a well-constructed sneaker. The best of both worlds awaits you with these adorable Jeffrey Campbell shoes!

Ash Rolls Sneakers

These sneaks from Ash Rolls boast a very New Balance-esuqe colorway with a combo of metallic silver and white. The key to ballet sneakers is the classic top strap!

Jeffrey Campbell Regimen Ballet Sneakers

But you can also find fun lace-up styles like this, which also get right to the heart of ballet style. I'm obsessed with how far up the ankle these laces reach.
