Pop culture often shapes consumer buying behavior through its influence on media, celebrities, and politics and the round of April 2021 pop culture trends showcases the category's recent effect on current products and services.
Some standouts from the list of April 2021 pop culture trends include the new line of pints from Serendipity Brands and Warner Bros. The four new pop culture ice cream pints pay home to the iconic series and movies: friends, The Goonies, CaddyShack, and A Christmas Story. The nostalgic flavor options include Gopher Traxs, Sloth & Chunk Rocky Rooooaad, and the Oh Fudge! Peppermint Cookie Fudge Sundae, respectively.
Moreover, the list also highlights a new app called MUBI REMIX from film streaming service MUBI that allows people to create and share their own video messages using movie clips.
