The Fresno Grizzlies are the Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals and play in the Pacific Coast League. I have a feeling they won't be having taco eating contests anymore.

GROSS: There's now a mayonnaise-flavored ice cream
KTBZ-FM, Oct 1 2019
We now have a contender for the strangest ice cream ever, thanks to Japan's Morinaga Milk Industry. Dubbed the "Calorie Monster Cherio Creamy Mayonnaise Flavor," the limited-time frozen treat went on sale last week. It's served as an ice cream bar, with white chocolate in the center surrounded by the mayo-flavor ice cream, then dipped in a white chocolate shell with cookie crumbs. The dessert has 307 calories and is available there until March 2020.

The first McDonald's opened in 1940 in San Bernardino. There are now almost 38,000 worldwide. I think it's Mcreally Mcannoying that McDonald's adds "Mc" to the names of so Mcmany of their Mcmenu items.
