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.

The Beverage Reconciliation Industry Network Group (RING) has seen major beverage companies join forces to help First Nations businesses build connections with corporate procurement teams during Indigenous Business Month. The partners include: Asahi Beverages, Australian Venue Co., Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Coles Group, Diageo, Endeavour Group, LION and Suntory Oceania.

Coles has cut its first half earnings outlook for Supermarkets to flat, citing higher fuel-related supplier costs and heavier competitor promotions, even as own brand and online sales kept growing.

End Food Waste Australia (EFWA) is moving away from its Food Pact program to launch End Food Waste Australia Membership. EFWA says it provides a more flexible model for organisations of any size.
