Following the launch of Pizza in Bed, the Mini Patio Sets, and the Singing Pizza Boxes, Boston Pizza recently expanded its portfolio with the introduction of a Weighted Napkin to take the stress out of mealtime. According to the brand, " this three-pound napkin takes the calming properties of weighted blankets and applies them to the laps of Meal Deal People."
“We invented the Weighted Napkin with Meal Deal People in mind,” said James Kawalecki, VP Marketing at Boston Pizza. “We know meal planning can be stressful, so the Weighted Napkin and our new Meal Deals are intended to help lower the stress.”
