For Care Bears' nationally recognized giveback holiday, Share Your Care Day, Noodles & Company collaborated with Care Bears on an exclusive, limited-time Care Bears Share Menu to inspire togetherness this back-to-school season.
On the menu, there are two simple options, the Care Bears Besties Meal with a large entrée, a small entrée and a Cheer Crispy, and the Share Your Care Junior Meal with a small entrée, a kids' drink and a collectible Care Bears mini plush, while supplies last. Both of these options can be ordered online and in-restaurant and they inspire families and friends to come together in September to create special moments and memories.
Noodles' new Care Bears Share Menu is guaranteed under its Goodness Guarantee program, which invites people of all ages to try something outside their comfort zone without risk.
