Get the fryers going!

The Krabby Patty meal will be available at your local Wendy's on October 8th, but only for a limited time. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of “SpongeBob SquarePants,” the fast food chain is launching its Krabby Patty Kollab, complete with its signature version of the iconic Krabby Patty, french fries and a Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty.

What could be better than giving a smile? Starting next week, fans will finally be able to try the legendary Krabby Patty that we loved Performance for decades since the popular Nickelodeon show first aired in 1999. Columbus-based Wendy's is bringing the concept to life in restaurants across the country.

“It makes sense that two of pop culture's most iconic spots are joining forces to bring fans of all ages a taste of this unique, limited-time experience to life!” Lindsay Radkoski, US chief marketing officer for Wendy's, said in a press release this week .

While we don't know the secret formula yet, here's what you should know about Wendy's Krabby Patty meal.

While many SpongeBob lovers are looking forward to the Krabby Patty Kollab meal, other fans criticized the launch, pointing out that it goes against the wishes of the late Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of “SpongeBob SquarePants” who died in 2018.

A 2004 New York Times article said: “Mr. Hillenburg has no problem with candy and ice cream… But Mr. Hillenburg has problems with fast food, which is full of hidden additives,” the article explained before publication of the first SpongeBob movie.
