Australian brands are tame on Valentine's Day in comparison to some of our global counterparts.

Burger King Israel, for example, has gone to the extent of offering a limited edition adults-only meal box.

The 'Valentine's Adult's Meal' packaging, which echoes its range of kids' meals, is only for those over 18 and includes two Whoppers, two boxes of French fries, two beers, and a feather duster, blindfold, or head massager.  

In a promotion, the chain said:

"Kids have got their ‘Kid’s Meal’ but what about grown-ups? Shouldn’t they have their own meal too? At least on Valentine’s?”

Mars has also celebrated the occasion, albeit in a less saucy way, by issuing this special edition Snickers bar for 14 February.

Food & Drink Business

Australian ready-made meal business, Fast Fuel Meals, has entered voluntary administration, with more than $20m in creditor claims outstanding as the company considers a change of ownership.

CocoCoast is targeting $200m in annual revenue within five years after growing 53% in the past year, as it looks to exploit gaps in the US beverage market created amid tariff disruption.

The evolution of fermentation from familiar tradition to a powerful platform for future food innovation was the topic of conversation at a recent invitation-only Novonesis business breakfast for business leaders from the Australian and New Zealand food and beverage industry.
