When you’re in a pinch for a Halloween costume, one fail-safe method is to dress up like your favorite food. At least, that’s our approach. And since we’re huge foodies here, that means we have plenty of ideas to choose from. Lucky for you, and us, there are plenty ways to dress up as your favorites snacks, sauces and sweets. Here are 17 of our favorite ways to dress as food for Halloween and look pretty damn yummy while doing it.

1. Croquembouche: If you’re not familiar with this French wedding cake made from dozens of tiny creampuffs, you are seriously missing out. Short of going out and buying one ASAP, this cute DIY costume might satisfy your craving for now. Going out for Halloween with your significant other? Have him dress as a pastry chef and you’ll be the sweetest couple around. (via Studio DIY)

2. Sriracha: If you adore the spicy stuff as much as we do, what better way to show it than by dressing up as the flying rooster bottle yourself? It’s super easy to pull this costume together with stuff you already have or could easily pick up at the craft store. Even if you have to buy supplies, total cost for this DIY project is under $10. (via Sarah Hearts)

3. Deviled Eggs: A punny takeon the classic party snack, this costume interprets the meaning of deviled above and beyond just some sinful deliciousness. (via Flickr)

4. Morton Salt Girl: This iconic look and tribute to all things salty is a cinch to pull together with items from the thrift store and your closet. Pull on a yellow dress, then break out your biggest umbrella and the heaviest container of salt you can find. If you’re not superstitious, you can scatter a little trail to complete the look. Just double check with your party hosts first. (via Keiko Lynn)

5. Franzia: Want to be the life of the party? Try literally bringing the party in your costume! Yup, this Franzia box costume is a functional wine dispenser. Of course, drinking from it yourself may present some challenges, so make sure you get your friends to bring you a glass. (via Instructables)

6. Nerds: Perfect for a couple’s costume or just two close friends, this DIY look is fun, simple and super cute. Just create the Nerds logo on some boxes, step into some brightly colored tights (or pants) and t-shirts, then string the boxes over your heads. Tape up glasses to make the transformation to nerd complete. (via Costume Works)

7. Cupcake: This sweet cupcake costume is as cute as a button. Whether you try to make this elaborate costume or DIY something simpler with a tutu and a frosting topped hat, you’re sure to get plenty of compliments on how sweet you look. (via Broadsheet)

8. Tomatoes: If you love tomatoes as much as we do, or if you’d rather dress up as another brightly colored fruit, this pseudo template costume works really well. A Chinese lamp, matching tights, and a green leaf hat are all you need to pull this off. You could use the same technique for blueberries or strawberries. (via iVillage)

9. Sushi: Um, YUM. We’re getting hungry just looking at this costume, and it’s pretty smart too. Wrap a salmon covered pillow in silvery tape, and strap the pillow to your back. Throw on some wasabi and ginger headpieces and you’re ready to hit the town, after grabbing some sushi first. (via Mayuk)

10. Taco Bell Sauce: This is a great group costume, and it doesn’t hurt that you’ll look pretty hot, too. You and your lady friends just need matching dresses in the hot sauce colors, ranging from yellow to dark red. Then print out enough Taco Bell logos to go around. (via Buzzfeed)

11. Popcorn: This costume comes together for under $30, which means you have a lot more dough to spend on snacks and drinks for your party. All you need is a cheap white tee, some paint and balloons. Oh, and make sure you also bring plenty of microwave popcorn to carry around with you. (via She Knows)

12. Spaghetti and Meatballs: Beige yarn, a red sweater and some pompoms will turn you into your favorite pasta dinner. How you’ll manage to see through a curtain of yarn pasta is up to you to figure out. (via Buzzfeed)

13. Donut: This costume makes a great project for kids and adults alike. Just grab an inner tube and decorate any way you like. If you’re headed to a Halloween party by a pool, you know you have to bring this along. (via Studio DIY)

14. Grapes: Need an excuse to play around with balloons? This cute throwback costume, which only needs a few crafty items to make, is the answer. (via EHow)

15. Pizza: Whether you’re dressing up yourself or helping your child, transforming into everyone’s favorite late-night snack is a cinch. Get ready to get super creative with felt, glue, and as many toppings as you can think of. (via DIY Network)

16. Birthday Cake: This bright birthday cake costume is definitely a bit more labor intensive than some of the others in our roundup, but trust us, the piñata inspired look is totally worth it. Top with an adorable candle hat to complete the transformation. (via Studio DIY)

17. Candy Corn: It’s Halloween, so you might as well dress up as the quintessential holiday candy: the candy corn! And since all you really need besides a tricolored dress is a paper hat, this is a great choice for any last-minute trick or treaters. (via Little Lovables)

The “Miraculous” New Trader Joe’s Snack You Won’t Feel Guilty Eating

There are plenty of Trader Joe’s snacks I could easily eat the entire package of, like the Milk Chocolate Covered Honeycomb Candy and the Ghost Pepper Potato Chips – but they’re definitely not intended to be eaten in a single sitting at the cost of a gnarly stomachache.

But, TJ’s is constantly innovating, and their newest snack surprisingly defies all expectations: the serving size is actually the entire package. Fans are nothing short of intrigued.

Reddit

One bag of Trader Joe’s Crispy Dried Watermelon is packed with 1.5 pounds of vacuum-dried watermelon strips, though you wouldn’t guess it at first glance. TJ’s calls it “a true feat of physics,” which is truly enough reason for me to give ‘em a try.

Another notable aspect of this new snack is that each bite doesn’t lose its sweet melon flavor, even though all the moisture is gone. Of course, the most important feature is its serving size being 1 package.

Reddit

Trader Joe’s Crispy Dried Watermelon isn’t yet featured on the grocer’s website, though it’s definitely gained some buzz on social media platforms like Reddit. One user shared their love for the wacky newcomer snack in this thread, saying: “without a doubt, the best thing I’ve ever had from Trader Joe's. It is sooo unbelievable.”

Reddit

A few more users chimed in with praise for the snack, while others remained quite skeptical of its quality and taste.

“I like them,” one person wrote. “It reminded me of sweet plantain chips, except watermelon.”

“You’re the only person I’ve ever seen actually enjoy it,” another user commented.

“I’m glad someone is enjoying it! Our crew sampled it and we all hated it, that’s hilarious,” one more person said.

Reddit

The same user posted a few photos with their comments about the Crispy Dried Watermelon, with one capturing the nutrition facts label on the package. One serving of the sweet snack (the entire bag) has 150 calories, 15mg sodium, 35 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, and 3 grams of protein.

The only real caveat to its miraculous one-bag serving size is it contains 31g of sugar – so, if you’re watching your sugar intake, it might be best to snack on this one slowly.

Reddit

In addition to simply munching on the Crispy Dried Watermelon on its own, TJ’s suggests crushing the pieces to use as a cocktail garnish or even blending it in a food processor with heavy cream and powdered sugar for a watermelon-flavored homemade frosting.

Hilary Duff Is Housing Mandy Moore & Family During LA Fires: "Altadena Strong."

Amid the tragedy of the LA fires, neighbors are opening their homes to one another. In addition to AirBnb offering temporary housing and various YMCAs and Red Cross locations opening their doors, victims are finding safety with friends and family — and that includes your favorite celebrities. Like Hilary Duff and husband Matthew Koma, who opened their home to Mandy Moore, Taylor Goldsmith, and their family.

Here's what Mandy Moore and Griffin Goldsmith have said about Hilary Duff and Matthew Koma — and the LA wildfires.

Despite losing everything, Griffin is touched by Hilary Duff & Matthew Koma.

A post shared by Dawes (@dawestheband)

After Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith's home was affected by the wildfires in Altadena (they lost their garage, music studio, and back house), Mandy's brother-in-law Griffin Goldsmith revealed the family had been taken in by Hilary Duff.

"All of this so overwhelming," he said on Instagram. "Our dear friends @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff thought it wise to set up a gofundme for us to help with everything moving forward. Not to mention they are currently housing my brother’s family. They’ve taken care of my entire family from the moment this began. I will never be able to thank them adequately. This is the kindest act any human could do for another. They are the most beautiful, selfless people we’ve ever known."

"I’ve never been so moved in my life," he continues. "We are completely blown away. I can’t talk or think about it without crying. Like I said there aren’t words to describe how I feel. I’m doing my best. You all have completely changed what the picture of our future in Los Angeles looks like."

Mandy Moore shared the GoFundMe for Griffin and Kit on Instagram, writing in a since-deleted post that the couple "lost their home and everything they own in the Eaton Fire."

"With their first baby on the way in a matter of weeks, they need our support now more than ever," Mandy says (via People). "Griff is a touring musician and also lost his entire arsenal of drums/percussion he uses to make a living. It’s all so much. So many have asked how to help during this unimaginable and stressful time … Please consider donating and sharing to help them rebuild."

And when people criticized her decision to share the GoFundMe link? "Kindly F OFF."

"People questioning whether we’re helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money Google says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic," she continues. "Of course we are. Our buddy Matt started this GoFundMe and i’m sharing because people have asked how they can help them. We just lost most of our life in a fire too."

And the main part of Mandy Moore's home is still "mostly intact."

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Mandy Moore (@mandymooremm)

The Princess Diaries actress shared photos from her family's property, revealing that the main part of their home is still standing. "It’s not livable but mostly intact," she said on Instagram January 10. "We lost Taylor and griffin’s studio with every instrument and piece of equipment they’ve ever owned. We lost our garage and back house. Everyone we know lost everything. Every house on our street is gone. My in laws. My brother and sister in law- 6 weeks from welcoming their first baby. Our best friends. Feeling weird survivors guilt. We love this community and will do everything we can to help rebuild and support. Thanks for everyone for checking on us and offering us help. Altadena strong."

1. Organic Roasted Vegetable Pizza

This vegetarian pizza has it going on with tons of roasted eggplant, zucchini, red onion, grilled yellow and red peppers, and garlic piled on top.

“This dip is my fave,” one Redditor noted about Trader Joe's Almond Chipotle Dip. You can easily use the spicy dip to dunk veggie sticks and crackers in or make it a spread for wraps and sandwiches. One user even noted that it tastes similar to Bitchin' Sauce, which goes great with everything.

Trader Joe's

6. Vegetable Bird's Nests

As a Trader Joe's OG since 2003, the Vegetable Bird's Nests are totally worth crunching on, and many Redditors noted it as their favorite vegetarian snack. The lightly-battered combination of julienned onions, carrots, and kale gets so tasty in the air fryer.

The Mini Vegetable Samosas came up several times as Redditors discussed their favorite vegetarian Trader Joe's snacks.

They are astounding when you cook 'em in the air fryer!

Trader Joe's

It doesn't get more basic than a taquito when it comes to easy snacks. These frozen, pre-made rolls are made with just black beans and cheese, so all vegetarians can happily enjoy them!

12 "Outdated" Kitchen Trends You Should Ditch In 2025 (But You Probably Have)

Kitchen renovations are no joke – they're a major investment, so you’ll want to think twice before committing to fleeting trends — especially for big-ticket items like cabinets, countertops, and appliances. I’ll admit it: I’m still without a backsplash five years later because I can’t commit! While it’s perfectly fine to follow your heart if you love a particular look, kitchens can quickly feel outdated when you lean too heavily on short-lived fads. To help you create a timeless, stylish space, we’ve rounded up outdated kitchen trends to avoid — and easy ways to modernize if your kitchen is stuck in the past.

Scroll to see if you have these outdated kitchen trends in your house right now!

Mark McCammon

1. All-White Kitchens

The all-white kitchen craze has officially run its course, often feeling cold and sterile — like say a doctor’s office. Today’s kitchens are all about warmth and character, with palettes in soft neutrals, earthy greens, or bold, moody shades like oxblood and midnight blue. Choose a color that speaks to you for a timeless, inviting space you'll love for years to come.

2. Granite Countertops

This early 2000s trend has been overdone and feels so dated now. Marble, sleek quartz, even butcher block are more classic choices.

Curtis Adams

3. Ornate Cabinetry

The color and detail of this traditional kitchen feels drab and dated. Instead, look for flat-panel or Shaker-style cabinets with clean, minimal lines.

Terry Magallanes

4. Farmhouse Decor

This kitchen is a lesson is don'ts. The grey vinyl flooring (especially hideous!), farmhouse stools, and white cabinetry hail from a decades-old trend that needs to disappear in 2025.

Home Depot

5. Glass Mosaic Tiles

Glass mosaics, popular in the 2000s and 2010s, tend to lean toward a transitional aesthetic, which is the opposite of an organic, minimalist, or vintage-inspired design kitchen are craving now. The grout lines are bit difficult to clean too between all the tiny tiles. Zellige tile or a slab of marble are a more sophisticated look for today's kitchens.

Level 23 Media

6. Black & White

The stark contrast between black and white can come across as harsh and overly dramatic, a look that peaked in the 2010s. The farmhouse sign doesn't help warm it up either. Soften the look with earthy, natural tones.

Curtis Adams

7. Subway Tile

Subway tile is classic, so there’s no need to rip it out if it still brings you joy. However, the white subway tile paired with dark grout has overstayed its welcome. This overdone trend became so ubiquitous that it lost its charm and individuality, leaving kitchens looking more cookie-cutter than full of character.

Amazon

8. Industrial Lighting

This nod to the past needs to, sorry, stay in the past. Look for organic, natural forms and lighting that reflects your kitchen's unique aesthetic.

Shutterstock

9. Tuscan Style

This rustic kitchen feels dated with its heavy, ornate features like dark wood cabinetry and trim. Go for clean, brighter spaces.

Shutterstock

10. Tile Countertops

Natural stone, marble, and wood are trending for 2025. Grout-filled countertops like this one are not. Time to go!

Max Vakhtbovycn

11. Moroccan Mosaic Tile

Kitchens are becoming elegant places to cook, eat, and gather. This busy design can look cheap. The white mid-century Eames-style chairs, sorry to say, are also out.

Andrea Davis

12. Barn Doors

Using barn doors between the kitchen and other spaces is a look that is officially out. They proved to be not that functional and the look is now dated and too kitschy. Buh bye!
