Ahoy, mateys! The Wendy's Krabby Patty, the real-world version of Bikini Bottom's most popular burger, is now available in restaurants nationwide as of Tuesday, Oct. 8.
The cartoon-turned-IRL burger consists of ground beef, American cheese, crisp lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, and a "super special secret sauce" served on a toasted bun — and the internet has thoughts, particularly SpongeBob SquarePants superfans.
Keep in mind that, according to a press release from Wendy's, the Krabby Patty Kollab Burger (as it's officially called) is "inspired" by the swashbuckling, under-the-sea animation. In other words, it's not meant to be an exact replica, but it still has Krusty Krab devotees in a tizzy.
SEE ALSO: SpongeBob SquarePants heads to Texas in 'Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie' trailer Wendy's Krabby Patty: Does it look like the cartoon version?When promo images of the Krabby Patty first hit the internet, some were disappointed that it didn't match the cartoon variant.
Tweet may have been deleted An X user hates to "be that guy," but pointed out the inaccurate order of the ingredients. Credit: @MrDylanKrug on X"What's different about this burger? Looks like a regular Wendy's cheeseburger," a Reddit user with the moniker @Blue_Wave_2020 said.
"Doesn't even have a sesame seed bun," another Reddit user said.
Several commenters in the official SpongeBob subreddit voiced dissatisfaction that it's not plant-based. Not necessarily because they're vegans, but according to SpongeBob SquarePants producer Vincent Waller, "there is absolutely no meat in the Krabby Patty; there is no animal product in there."
Others pointed out that, true to Wendy’s style, the meat inside the IRL Krabby Patty has a squarish shape. The Krabby Patty in Bikini Bottom, on the other hand, is round. "A square patty!?" said ConclusionDouble3962, who claims that they purchased the Krabby Patty Kollab Burger. "It was basically just an overhyped Dave's Single."
(For the uninitiated, a Dave's Single is a classic burger from Wendy's named after Dave Thomas, the chain's founder.)

Wendy's Krabby Patty has decent reviewsPerusing through X (formerly Twitter), many people who looked past the fact that it’s not an exact recreation of the Bikini Bottom burger seemed to enjoy it.
Credit: @Caylaisawesome on X"I'd get it again and that frosty was on another level," @Caylaisawesome said. This X user is referring to the Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty that comes with the total Krabby Patty Kollab Meal. It has fries, too.
"Was good," @MORSxGAMING said.
Credit: @MORSxGAMING on XHowever, you can't please everyone. One X user wondered why the meal lacked a toy and a SpongeBob SquarePants-themed wrapper.
Credit: @KidKinsey on XAnother agreed with the aforementioned Redditor that it's "just a rebranded Dave's Single with special sauce," adding that it's "not bad, just not as spectacular."
Credit: @JoshGamnChannel on XAs for the "super special secret sauce" that accompanies the Wendy's Krabby Patty, several reviewers, including reporters from El Paso Times and Delaware Online, say that it simply tastes like Thousand Island dressing.
The Wendy's Krabby Patty Kollab Burger, in partnership with Nickelodeon and Paramount, celebrates SpongeBob SquarePants' 25th anniversary. By the way, the burger won't be around for long — it's a limited-edition meal.

Cold, dry, and barren: Mars doesn't look like it could be a haven for life — at least not the kind humans are familiar with.
Despite the Red Planet's appearance, scientists have wondered for decades about the possibility of microbial life inhabiting Mars in the distant past. Now a new study, based on data collected by NASA's Curiosity rover, is peeling back another layer of the mystery. For the first time, researchers measured the isotopic composition of carbon-rich minerals found in Gale Crater, a region laced with dried rivers and gullies and being explored by the rover.
The findings Curiosity beamed millions of miles back to Earth were not optimistic, at least in terms of the potential for life above ground.
"Our samples are not consistent with an ancient environment with life (biosphere) on the surface of Mars," said David Burtt, lead author of the study, in a statement, "although this does not rule out the possibility of an underground biosphere or a surface biosphere that began and ended before these carbonates formed."
The new paper, published in the National Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday, suggests two possible ways carbon-rich minerals could have formed at Gale crater: a series of alternating wet and dry periods at the site or salty-ice conditions. These two different ancient climate scenarios could be summed up as bleak and bleaker when it comes to supporting life.

Credit: NASA / JPL-Caltech / MSSSIn an environment that swings like a pendulum from wet to dry, the region would intermittently shift from more habitable to less habitable, said Jennifer Stern, a co-author. In frigid temperatures near the planet's equator, the environment would be hostile for living things because most water would be frozen and inaccessible for chemistry or biology.
"And what is there is extremely salty and unpleasant for life," she added in a statement.
This isn't the first time scientists have theorized these possible climate scenarios for ancient Mars. Computer modeling of the planet, based on the presence of certain minerals and rock formations, have led scientists down this path before, but this is the first time they've had isotopic evidence from Martian rocks to bolster those ideas.

Credit: NASA illustrationScientists have sought life on Mars since the first spacecraft touched down on its surface in 1976. Mounting evidence from robotic explorers, especially from Curiosity and its twin Perseverance, has shown the Red Planet to have once been warmer and wetter, perhaps more than 3 billion years ago.
The rover pair had a highly productive summer, including Perseverance's discovery of a spotted rock with the most compelling signs of ancient dead Martian life yet, though a sample would need to be shipped back to Earth for confirmation. A research team also recently published more evidence of a vast ocean of water below the planet’s surface. And where there's water on Earth, there's often life.
Scientists are interested in Mars' carbon-rich rocks because they are like climate time capsules. Their minerals can hold onto clues about the environments in which they formed, such as the temperature and acidity of the water, and the ingredients within the water and air. Curiosity made the isotope measurements by heating the samples to over 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit and analyzing the released gasses.
Isotopes are versions of an element with different masses. As water evaporates, light versions of carbon and oxygen are more likely to escape into the atmosphere, while heavier versions tend to remain and get incorporated into rocks.
The isotope values of the sampled materials indicate lots of evaporation, the team says, suggesting that they probably formed in a climate that could only support transient liquid water — that is, water that comes from melted ice when temperatures rise and the surface pressure is right.
The heavy isotope values in the samples are much higher than what’s seen on Earth for carbonate minerals. Furthermore, they are the heaviest carbon and oxygen isotope values recorded for any Martian materials. Although evaporation can cause oxygen isotope changes on Earth, the changes measured in the Martian samples were two to three times greater, Burtt said.
Astrobiologists believe caves like this one on Mars could potentially harbor life. Credit: NASA / JPL / Univ. of Arizona"The fact that these carbon and oxygen isotope values are higher than anything else measured on Earth or Mars points towards a process (or processes) being taken to an extreme," he said.
But this doesn't discount the possibility of life. The Red Planet appears to have a network of deep caves formed by ancient volcanic vents. Within them could be liquid water, traces of long-deceased bacteria or fungi, or, some scientists believe, perhaps even existing microbial life.
Caves can host complex ecosystems, inhabited by extremophiles that munch on rocks and convert the material into energy for life. Because of this, many astrobiologists want nothing more than to go spelunking on Mars.
Grief haunts a young boy and his stepmother in Daddy's Head, the second feature from director Benjamin Barfoot (Double Date).
SEE ALSO: Best horror movies to watch tonight: Scary movie pickerThe film premiered at 2024's Fantastic Fest, where attendees also celebrated the 10th anniversary of Jennifer Kent's The Babadook, and it's hard not to put the films in conversation. Both deal with grief over losing a father figure and a husband, both center on a woman struggling to raise a troubled boy, and both feature a terrifying creature who might as well have jumped straight out of a child's imagination. Yet Daddy's Head forges its own path too, mixing its Babadook influences with folk horror to create an unsettling portrait of how grief can rip us to shreds.
What's Daddy's Head about? Matthew Allen in "Daddy's Head." Credit: Courtesy of Rob Baker AshtonBefore Daddy's Head launches us into a nightmarish creature feature, it introduces us to a nightmare that's all too real. Young Isaac (Rupert Turnbull) must say goodbye to his father James (Charles Aitken), who's being taken off life support following a devastating car crash.
Isaac has already lost his mother, and since James had no next of kin, his legal guardian is now his stepmother Laura (Julia Brown). While Isaac and Laura aren't close, Daddy's Head sidesteps the evil stepmother trope. Instead, early glimpses of home video from back when James was still alive paint Laura as someone trying to understand Isaac, even as he processes the arrival of a new maternal figure. At one point, seeing how much he loves drawing, Laura gifts him a set of colored pencils. Isaac is less than thrilled. It's a quietly brutal moment, one in which you can empathize with both Laura and Isaac. She hopes for connection, while he is still struggling with massive life changes.
SEE ALSO: 'The Babadook' filmmaker Jennifer Kent on how her character became an LGBTQ+ icon, and why we will never see a sequelThe uneasy distance between Laura and Isaac becomes fraught in the wake of James' death. Laura was certainly not ready to lose her husband, let alone be the mother to his son. Every night, she numbs herself with wine and home videos, all while weighing the option of surrendering Isaac to social services. Unsure of his own fate, Isaac plays games and yearns for his father's return.
You might think that return impossible, given the fact the film opens with flashes of his bloodied, pulverized face. Yet somehow, some aspects of James follow Isaac and Laura back to their sleek, ultra-modern house, turning their grief into a literal horror show.
Daddy's Head finds horror in the grieving process. James Harper-Jones in "Daddy's Head." Credit: Courtesy of Rob Baker AshtonThe spooky occurrences in Daddy's Head start slow and disparate, with flashing lights reminiscent of police cars blasting through Laura and Isaac's windows, and unexplainable fires popping up in the forest that surrounds them. Here, the film falls into a pattern: day scenes that ramp up the tension between Laura and Isaac, then creepy night scenes where a wine-drunk Laura experiences these strange happenings. Between this pattern and a series of rote jump scares, Daddy's Head falls into a bland routine for a time.
Luckily, things pick up with the arrival of the titular monster, a scurrying, smiling replica of James' head. (Or could it even be the real thing?) It lurks in air vents and calls to Isaac from the forest with a raspy voice that, yes, recalls the Babadook. Of course, Laura believes the creature to be a figment of Isaac's imagination, especially given all the grotesque monsters he's drawn around his room. Even its form — and the film's own title — suggest a silly, childish monster.
However, as proof of the creature's existence quickly grows irrefutable, how Laura and Isaac choose to deal with it will define their relationship going forward. Will they give in to the monster? Will they continue to deny its existence? Or will they band together and find common ground in this shared, traumatic experience? In this, the monster becomes a stand-in for grief, and for the emotional limits it pushes us to. Both Brown and Turnbull deliver moving work as two people with very different routes to take through mourning. Brown is all unsureness and numbness, while Turnbull brings a vulnerable rage to Isaac's pain.
Barfoot wrings scares from areas besides grief as well, especially when it comes to atmosphere. James designed the house Laura and Isaac now suffer in, effectively trapping his family in a prison of his presence. An unsettling wooden structure Isaac discovers in the woods makes for a folk horror-tinged counterpoint to the main house, and an ideal lair for the monster that lurks within. The slightest flicker of James' smile in the structure's dark depths is enough to send you cowering back in your chair. Equally chilling is the fact that Isaac appears not frightened by this sight, but instead comforted, his very perception of the world warped by loss. Yes, he may be haunted by a disembodied head, but grief and its impact are the real monsters here.

Whether you're looking to ditch a few old appliances and consolidate with a multitasking air fry grill and oven, need to replace your nonstick pans that aren't so nonstick anymore, or just need to know if the hype around the Ninja Creami is legit, you can save up to 50% on a new Ninja gadget on Oct. 8 and 9.

We're keeping a running list of the best October Prime Day Ninja deals below, updating as soon as any new deals drop. Note: All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.
Best October Prime Day kitchen deals Opens in a new window Credit: Ninja Ninja Foodi 10-in-1 XL Pro Countertop Convection Oven $219.99 at AmazonOne of the juicier discounts we found on any Ninja Foodi so far during Prime Big Deal days was a 43% slash on the 8-in-1 XL air frying oven. It has since sold out, but the 10-in-1 Foodi is also at a decent discount with $80 off. The 10-in-1 oven has buttons for air fry, air roast, bake, whole roast, broil, toast, bagel, dehydrate, reheat, and pizza, and it can do two of those at once. The two-shelf design is seriously spacious, fitting two 12-inch pizzas, a tray of veggies and a five-pound chicken, or a full 12-pound turkey if you remove the shelf.

Best vacuum deal Opens in a new window Credit: Dyson Our pick: Dyson V8 Plus cordless vacuum $299.99 at AmazonThe Dyson V8 Plus cordless vacuum (silver/nickel) is lightweight and powerful and can handle most daily cleaning tasks. It has a detachable wand for cleaning stairs, upholstery, and hard-to-reach areas, and it converts to a handheld vac for quick cleanups. It comes with four accessories, including a hair screw tool for pet hair.
With a runtime of up to 40 minutes on a single charge, this little vac is ideal for small apartments and quick cleanups.
You can get it at Amazon for a whopping 299.99 in a Big Prime Deal (originally $469.99). It’s out of stock at Dyson.

The Dyson Hot+Cool (AM09) is a heater and a fan, so you can use it year-round. Its Jet Focus tech gives you both a diffused airflow for evenly distributed heating or cooling and a concentrated stream of air for targeted cooling. It also has a sleep timer and oscillation for even air distribution.
Prime members can buy it at Amazon for $299.23 (regularly $469.99), or if you’re not interested in signing up for Prime, you can get it at Dyson for $299.99.

The Dyson Airwrap is $100 off for Prime members, bringing it to $499.99. (It's not on sale at Dyson.) That’s still a lot of money to pay for a hair styler, but it’s a cult-fave for a reason. It’s designed to dry and style hair without super-high heat, so it's healthier for your hair and cuts down on styling time. You’ll also get a fancy storage case and multiple styling attachments.
Mashable’s shopping reporter, Bethany Allard, says it best: “If you have the cash to spare, heat style regularly, and don't mind that your curls won't be locked in all day, the Dyson Airwrap is worth the investment.”

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.
There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.
An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.
If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.
