Oreo brings back fan-favorite flavor after 8-year hiatus
There are many types of cookies out there, from chocolate chip to sugar; however, only one is known by its brand name rather than the type of cookie it is. Although it needs no introduction, Oreo is one of the most popular sandwich cookies worldwide. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter The cookie brand has developed over 85 different flavors since its inception in 1912, when it was first produced in the Chelsea Market in Manhattan, New York. Related: Oreo launches six new flavors, returns a fan-favorite for 2025 Although Oreo is mainly known for its original chocolate wafer with vanilla creme, it has launched multiple offerings, with some becoming permanent additions, others being seasonal regulars, and a few getting completely discontinued. There are various factors Oreo takes into account when choosing which flavors to make, keep, and discontinue. However, sometimes the reason is entirely unknown, especially when a flavor is so beloved. Image Source: NurPhoto/Getty Images Oreo, owned by Mondelez International (MDLZ) , first launched the Blueberry Pie Oreo cookie in June 2016 as a limited edition flavor and, due to its popularity, re-released it in 2017. The Blueberry Pie Oreo features blueberry creme sandwiched between two graham cracker-flavored cookies. Although a success among fans, the cookie giant discontinued this flavor after it was last made available to the public, never to be seen again on grocery store shelves. However, eight years later, Oreo had a sudden change of heart. Related: New Oreo collab slays with 'Only Murders' star Some may say that touting the power of collective voices only helps keep people motivated, but the strategy has actually worked this time. Due to popular demand, Oreo is returning the fan-favorite Blueberry Pie Oreo cookie. The Blueberry Pie Oreo will be available for a limited time on July 7 at grocery stores nationwide. For those who registered, the pre-sale begins June 30. Oreo made a social media post to announce the return of the discontinued Blueberry Pie flavor with the caption, "You win. Now please stop yelling at us." Netizens quickly bombarded Oreo's comments section with their opinions on the relaunch after an eight-year hiatus. A user commented, "Dreams do come true!!!" Another user wrote, "Summer just got solved." A Blueberry Pie Oreo lover expressed their excitement, commenting, "I've been waiting for this ALMOST 10 YEARS!!!" International Oreo fans also took over the comments section, requesting the Blueberry Pie flavor be available in their home countries.

McDonald's to close all its experimental spin-off locations
Innovation seems to be the buzzword among fast-food giants, and McDonald's has taken this trend to heart by unveiling a massive announcement it had secretly been planning for years. Although McDonald's is the biggest fast-food giant of them all, it's currently facing its worst quarter since the pandemic. Continuous sales drops and declining traffic that failed to meet analysts' expectations have caused its shares to plummet multiple times. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter However, it refuses to give up that easily, and one market could be the key to bringing business back on track. Related: McDonald's menu adds experimental new items fans will love McDonald's claims to already have around 10% market share in coffee, despite not being a coffee-focused chain, and it's now using this stat to its advantage. Image source: TheMcDonald's (MCD) introduced CosMc's in 2023 and opened its first-ever location in Illinois as a test run for this new idea. CosMc's is a space-themed café focusing on uniquely crafted beverages, including coffee, frappés, iced teas, lemonades, and energy drinks. It also has multiple breakfast items, including its iconic McMuffins and new specialty sandwiches, as well as baked goods, snacks, and soft-serve ice cream. The concept went viral on social media before the café even opened, making its debut a huge success and growing its demand. This led it to open five more locations, one in Illinois and the rest in Texas. Related: McDonald's revamps its latest fast-food concept restaurants The creation of CosMc's allowed McDonald's to quietly test innovative items, while analyzing operations and learning from the process. As more CosMc's opened, the company revealed it was considering using that feedback to revamp its original menu, alluding to the potential launch of new food and beverage additions. McDonald's announced on May 23 that it will close all its CosMc's locations and deactivate its spin-off app in June. This shocking move comes about after McDonald's revealed in early May that it would begin testing an entirely new beverage menu inspired by CosMc's later this year at various locations in select markets nationwide. This is part of a new menu innovation strategy to help the company better compete against its fast-food rivals after it has dealt with multiple sales declines over the last few quarters.

"So when you think about profit-pool growth in the industry, we expect beverages is going to be a place where there's significant growth in the profit pool," said McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski in the announcement. "Frankly, we think there's more that we can be doing to capture our fair share of that," he added.

Dollar General and Dolly Parton return fan-favorite collaboration
How much money would you spend on your favorite celebrity? Fanbases are so loyal to their favorite celebrities that they are willing to purchase anything they sell to support them and feel closer to their idols. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Because brands know how influential these stars are, they have formed partnerships with various iconic names to launch multiple collections and products. This maintains companies' relevancy among consumers, keeps audiences engaged, and boosts recognition for both parties. Related: New Oreo collab slays with 'Only Murders' star Brands like Mondelez's (MDLZ) Oreo have become experts at this strategic business move. The cookie brand recently launched celebrity partnerships with singer Post Malone and singer and actor Selena Gomez, which went viral on social media even before the cookies were made available to the public. This type of collaboration maximizes revenue because it provides tons of free marketing from adoring fans, and the products basically sell themselves. American country singer Dolly Parton has been "Working 9 to 5" lately, writing new songs and launching products like her microwavable meals with ConAgra Brands (CAG) in February. However, Dolly decided to expand her horizons last year by partnering with Dollar General (DG) to launch multiple seasonal collections. Related: Disney and Mickey Mouse take on Formula 1 She joined forces with the retailer in July 2024 to unveil the first-ever multi-category kitchen and housewares collection. It was a total success among consumers, with products selling out within minutes. The first release was such a hit the company planned another one for the spring season in March, so fans who couldn't purchase the first drop could hopefully get their hands on this one. This collaboration has been lucrative for Dolly and Dollar General, not only monetarily, but also in creating awareness of both brands by expanding them to a broader audience. With sunnier days only a few weeks away, Dollar General has again partnered with the legendary Dolly Parton to create another affordable kitchen and housewares collection for summer 2025. This marks the retailer's third line with the country singer. The new Dolly Heart and Home collection is now available for purchase at multiple locations nationwide. The best part is that almost every item retails for less than $10, as seen on the retailer's website. This collection is expected to be just as popular and sell out as fast as the last ones, so head to the nearest Dollar General if you don't want to miss the opportunity.

During the release of the Dolly Parton Spring 2025 collection, the retailer revealed that it has been working on more launches for the upcoming months, including a Christmas collection planned for this holiday season.
