› Taco Bell just announced that it will be adding beer to the menu at certain restaurant­s in Canada. It’s the first time that going to Taco Bell will lead to getting drunk and not the other way around.

— James Corden › Taco Bell says serving alcohol is their attempt to attract a very specific demographi­c: divorced dads with weekend custody.

— James Corden › As part of a limited campaign, McDonald’s is offering forks made from French fries. Not to be outdone, Long John Silver’s began offering seafood made from fish.

— Conan O’Brien › A picture went viral of a man delivering a 30-gallon tub of Cinnabon frosting on a bus — or as we call him in my house, Santa Claus. You just know everyone on that bus was like, “Forget my stop, I’ve got to see how this ends.” Thirty gallons — that’s enough for nearly two Cinnabons.

— James Corden › Taco Bell will begin selling so-called “Naked Chicken Chips,” which are triangular pieces of chicken that are dipped in nacho cheese sauce. And if you eat them they’ll be the only naked thing you’ll get to enjoy.

— Seth Meyers › A company has come out with a robot that makes salad. So finally — a robot that’s not going to take away any American jobs! — Conan O’Brien

— Jimmy Fallon › Starbucks is up to their old tricks again. Starbucks in Japan is introducin­g a new drink called an American Cherry Pie Frappuccin­o. It’s a vanilla Frappuccin­o with chunks of cherry pie in it. I don’t know if this sounds like a healthy drink. Pretty sure it’s not, because this is what the barista writes on it when they serve it to you: “Bob, you have three weeks to live.”
