Why These Silicone Food Huggers Are a Best-Selling Kitchen Item on Amazon

Welcome to our new food series called Eat It Up, where we share the kitchen gadgets and foods that we can’t cook without.

Offsetting food waste may be one of the easiest ways to save money, but it can seem hard to do when cut avocados turn brown so dang quickly or you forget about that half lemon, which has now petrified in the back of your fridge. Thankfully, there’s a slew of eco-friendly products available on Amazon aimed to help us extend the life of our food. We’re currently loving Farberware Food Huggers ($10 for four). These reusable silicone food savers double as lids for cups and jars and hug cut fruit and veggies to prevent oxidation.

We’ve found these little do-dads stretch best over citrus fruits, onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and cucumbers, but as we mentioned, they can also double as a lid to keep containers holding liquids, nuts, beans, spices, and more airtight. Though it’s convenient to reach for plastic wrap, bags, or foil to preserve food, these colorful, dishwasher-safe discs help cut down on disposable materials and hopefully keep unnecessary trash from entering landfills.

The Food Huggers have garnered 4.1 out of 5 stars on Amazon, with 60 percent of reviewers giving them a perfect score. Amazon shopper Quirkyosity shared this in a review, “These are brilliant at keeping onions, apples, or other round, cut fruits and veggies fresh.” But what about compared to plastic baggies or plastic wrap? Another shopper KBA312 vouches for the Food Huggers. “Did a side by side comparison: Half an avocado in saran wrap next to half an avocado in a hugger. Did the same for half a tomato. These food huggers did a better job! No browning and very minimal wrinkling. Made a delicious salad after my little experiment too!” she said. Another shopper, Crystal chimed in, “Love these little guys. Not much to say other than they work, and I like them better than Tupperware or ziplocks. One reviewer complained about residual onion smell after using it on onion half. I did not have that problem.”

Siri, play "So High School" by Taylor Swift because on January 26, the Chiefs officially became one of two teams to play in the 2025 Super Bowl and Taylor joined Travis Kelce on the field! There were laughs, hugs, and plenty of smooches, and I felt like I was witnessing the end of a rom-com play out in front of me — all on live TV. This couple makes plenty of appearances together, but I love the joy and chaos of something like a championship win because their interactions feel so authentic. Keep reading to see what Travis and Taylor said to each other after the game!

Here's everything that happened between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at the AFC Championship.

Taylor Swift was all smiles during Travis Kelce's post-win interview.

When the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Buffalo Bills on January 26 for the AFC Championship, Taylor Swift looked on as Travis Kelce hopped onstage with Patrick Mahomes and their coach Andy Reid. And not only did Travis give a great speech, but he broke out into a song of his own when he started singing "Get Down Tonight." We love a couple who can do it all!

"Never satisfied baby," Travis said when asked about how it felt to potentially win a third consecutive Super Bowl and break the NFL record. "When you play in front of Arrowhead Stadium like this every single AFC Championship, you kidding me?! Kansas City!"

And on the field, you can see Taylor Swift and Travis' mom Donna Kelce standing and laughing at his excitement.

And this couple just keeps proving how much they love each other.

But as exciting as the speech was, there's a moment that had fans more excited than anything: it looks like Taylor and Travis said "I love you" on the field.

While embracing and sharing a kiss after that win, Travis appears to say, "I love you so much," and Taylor seems to reply with, "I love you. I'm so proud of you" (which you can see in the video, and per People's report.)

All I can think about is Taylor talking at the end of "Daylight" about how she wants to be defined by the things she loves, not the things that she's afraid of, and the way she radiates life, love, and joy in her relationship with Travis Kelce really proves how much light he's brought into her life. To the Super Bowl we go!!!

Are you excited to see this Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift moment? Here's hoping we get another Super Bowl smooch too! Read up on Um, Travis Kelce Just Spilled On His Dream Wedding Amid Taylor Swift Engagement Rumors for more.

Starbucks fans, listen up: the chain just let us know that their spring menu may be coming sooner than you’d think.

If you've also been shelled up inside due to the frigid winter temperatures and find yourself craving everything spring, Starbucks is set to deliver in the coming months with two new menu items plus the return of a certain famed floral flavor.

Scroll on for everything we know about the Starbucks spring menu, plus the exact items to come!

Starbucks

NEW! Iced Cherry Chai

First up on the Starbucks spring menu is the all-new Iced Cherry Chai. We were huge fans of the chain's Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai over the fall, so anything that has to do with chai has our attention. Based on the same, we assume this iced chai beverage will include a cherry-flavored syrup to sweeten up the sip.

Starbucks

NEW! Jalapeño Chicken Pocket

A little birdy (AKA Starbucks!) also told us that there’s a new snack to join the 2025 spring menu. Meet the Jalapeño Chicken Pocket. The chain just dropped a similar-sounding item with their latest winter menu, the Spicy Falafel Pocket, which is essentially a savory pastry stuffed with falafel, creamy hummus, roasted red bell peppers, pickled onions, and a spicy herb sauce. Based on the Jalapeño Chicken Pocket name, it’s likely to be spicy and protein-packed. Yum!

Meredith Holser

Return of lavender

That’s right – Starbucks is reviving their lavender drinks for spring 2025. Last year, they launched three lavender-tinged bevs: the Lavender Oatmilk Latte (hot or iced), the Iced Lavender Oatmilk Matcha, and the Lavender Creme Frappuccino. We’re crossing our fingers all of them come back to menus, plus perhaps a new lavender offering!

When will the 2025 Starbucks spring menu drop?

Starbucks

The Starbucks spring menu is coming in March 2025. We’ll keep you posted with more official details on the menu items and exact release date!

What to Expect in Your February Horoscope for 2025

Isabella Bonnet

While Mars retrograde continues, this month proves to be lovely and filled with possibilities. Now that the action planet is still in its backspin motion, it doesn’t mean you should be holding back from visualizing your dreams. Appreciate the stillness and explore different possibilities before deciding what’s right for you. Although you may feel like a sitting duck, I beg to differ. This Mars retrograde proves to be a test of our will by not being impulsive. Luckily, Mars goes direct later this month, so hang on tight before losing momentum.

Cora Pursley

February is off to a fiery start as Venus moves into Aries on Tuesday, February 4. Love and relationships will take on a new tempo, either sultry or temperamental. It's a period to experience excitement or realize what needs to be refined in your connection. On the same day, Jupiter, the planet of luck, goes direct! You will begin to see the silver lining in your journey and even the solution in how you can proceed. It's also a time to see how fate has played out in your story. If you're discontent, this is your chance to turn your life around. Having a little faith will take you much further than lowering your vibration with negativity. Listen to a mentor or take on a new sacred practice that elevates your well-being. Follow through with your promises and brighten someone’s day. Pay it forward to turn the tides.

Hannah Rivera

The Full Moon in Leo illuminates the sky and infuses us with optimism and renewal on Wednesday, February 12. Full Moons denote the need to let go and move on from what no longer serves your highest good. The great news is that this celestial event leaves us with a glimmer of hope and the willingness to close the chapter. On Friday, February 14, our communication ability will be poetic and ethereal as Mercury moves into Pisces. If you plan to go out on Valentine’s Day this year, expect this day to be more romantic than in past years. Speaking from the heart and through feeling will result better than pride or logic. Be playful and in the moment. Cherish your love.

Abbie Bythewood

The mist begins to thicken, and our intuition heightens as the Sun moves into Pisces on Tuesday, February 18. This season is all about fine-tuning our empathy and interconnectedness with life. Inner reflection and exploring your artistic side will help you stay centered. Honor your sensitivity and be unconditional. On Sunday, February 23, the motivation planet Mars goes direct. It’s not time to push through with an agreement or project. Recalibrate and pick up from where you left off last October 2024. This is your time to decide whether an idea or concept stays or goes. Expect traction and things to pick up speed in the next several weeks.

In closing, the New Moon in emotive Pisces happens on Thursday, February 27. It’s time to start a new chapter involving your subconscious beliefs. This lunation will imbue you with the ability to trust the Universe and dream bigger. Hold onto the faith and set small steps to cultivate your vision.
