Velveeta Bagel Bites And 9 More Insane Mashups That Could Come Out Of The Kraft-Heinz Merger
On March 25, Food giants Heinz and Kraft announced that they'd be joining forces to create the world's fifth largest food company. With revenues of at least $28 billion, Kraft Heinz will be home to "an unparalleled portfolio of iconic brands," according to the company, many of which are household names. And in this era of the mashup, the possibilities of what these two forces can create when they put their heads together are really exciting. We decided to do the work for them, and came up with ten wild (genius?) Kraft-Heinz mashups that just might work.
Stove Top Stuffing, Ore-Ida Tater Tots
Tater Tot stuffing is the Thanksgiving tradition that's just waiting to happen.
Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, Heinz Chili Sauce
Adding sriracha to macaroni and cheese is super-trendy; why not include a packet of Heinz Chili Sauce in the famous blue box to get in on the action?
Kraft Singles, Heinz Ketchup
Stop putting ketchup on your cheeseburger: just use a slice of ketchup-flavored American cheese!
Miracle Whip, Jack Daniels Barbecue Sauce
We might have just invented the ultimate sandwich-topper.
Polly-O String Cheese, TGI Friday's Chicken Parmesan Sliders
No offense to TGI Friday's Chicken Parmesan Sliders, but the current state of their cheese is a little boring. It's time to get some real cheese on there, and Polly-O's stretchy, melty mozzarella is the perfect option. Load it up!
Lunchables, Weight Watchers Salisbury Steak Smart Ones
It's time that Lunchables grew up, and it would be hilarious if, instead of ham, Lunchables came with little discs of Salisbury steak.
Velveeta, Bagel Bites
Swap out the little flecks of mozzarella with melty Velveeta, and you've got a brand new style of pizza on your hands.
Oscar Mayer Weiner, Heinz Ketchup
How about this: Instead of putting ketchup on the hot dog, use some of the futuristic technology you've got hanging around and put a tunnel of ketchup in the middle of the hot dog. And while you're at it, introduce a Velveeta-stuffed hot dog as well!
Planters Peanuts, Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce
Ever splash some Worcestershire on roasted peanuts? Neither have we, but we imagine it would taste pretty good. Start working on turning Worcestershire into a powder, guys!
Cheez Whiz, Ore-Ida Waffle Fries
This one is just evil.
