Used to be, when two people said something at the same time, you'd blurt out, "Jinx, buy me a Coke." But forget soda: Kraft's decided to substitute boxed mac & cheese for their new "Mac & Jinx" Twitter campaign. According to Mashable, Kraft has developed a new game to get the phrase "mac & cheese" trending on the social networking site. It works like this: Any time two people use "mac & cheese" in a tweet, they each get a link to Mac & Jinx. The first one to click the link gets five free boxes of Kraft's mac & cheese, plus a T shirt. The promo is from the hyper-creative ad firm of Crispin Porter + Bogusky, the agency behind Burger King's Facebook campaign (delete 10 friends and get a free Whopper) and Microsoft's Laptop ("I'm just not cool enough to be a Mac person.") spots. So if you're feeling cheesy -- tweet about it.

"Golden Voiced" Ted Williams' first job was a voiceover for Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Read about it at AOL News.

Beer floavored marshmallows for St. Patrick's Day Photo: Elizabeth Hait, AOL

Last month, we wrote about a Chicago-based chocolatier, truffle truffle, and their unusual new item: beer marshmallows. Based on the flood of comments we got on the post, Facebook and Twitter it was clear that readers were hooked.

So when we heard that founder and owner Nicole Greene was giving these addictive sweets a twist for St. Patrick's Day, we had to get our hands on some. Dipped in milk chocolate and topped with crunchy bits of a sweet, salty beer-and-pretzel brittle, the green marshmallows become "green beer o'mallows" -- same great taste, but with a little more St. Patty's Day spirit.

Since they didn't want the editors at Slashfood and KitchenDaily to have all the fun, truffle truffle is giving Slashfood readers a chance to try them, too.
