Wendy's introduces the exciting 'Krabby Patty Kollab' meal which is officially launching in its chain locations on October 8th. This is to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Spongebob Squarepants—giving fans the opportunity to enjoy the themed, nautical menu. It is comprised of the Krabby Patty Kollab burger and the tropical sweet named 'Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty.'
The meal features the square-shaped quarter-pound beef patty and it is paired together with a secret Krabby Patty sauce -- all nestled inside of a toasted bun. The Pineapple Under the Sea frosty is a twist on the signature 'Vanilla Frosty' by the chain as it is blended with a tangy pineapple mango puree. Lastly, the meal is topped with classic french fries.
