“Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?” Many are familiar with the answer: SpongeBob SquarePants.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the animated Nickelodeon show, Wendy’s launched a Krabby Patty Kollab menu in collaboration with Paramount.
The menu items include a Krabby Patty Kollab Burger and Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty, and they’re available nationwide as of Tuesday.
“The Krabby Patty Kollab Burger is Wendy’s take on the most coveted recipe in all of Bikini Bottom,” the chain said in the announcement.
The burger will include a quarter pound of beef, two slices of melty American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and a top-secret Krabby Kollab sauce on a toasted bun.
The Pineapple Under the Sea Frosty is Wendy’s signature vanilla frosty with a pineapple mango flavored puree swirl, according to Wendy’s.
Both will be available for a limited time.

What’s in the top-secret sauce?
“Our top-secret Krabby Kollab sauce is a closely guarded recipe that makes the first bite of the Krabby Patty Kollab Burger worth the wait for ‘SpongeBob SquarePants’ fans and Wendy’s customers alike,” a Wendy’s spokesperson told USA Today.
Just like Mr. Krabs guards the Krabby Patty secret formula on the show, Wendy’s plans to guard the sauce’s recipe in real life.
“In a world of people cutting corners, Wendy’s is known for quality in everything we do — from our fresh, famous food to collaborations with brands that our fans love,” said Lindsay Radkoski, U.S. chief marketing officer for The Wendy’s Co. “So, it makes sense that two of the most iconic squares in pop culture are teaming up to bring a taste of this unique, limited-time experience to life for fans of all ages.”
The Krabby Patty Kollab program will bring food items inspired by the “SpongeBob SquarePants” Krabby Patty “into the real world and onto menus for the first time ever,” USA Today reported. The animated show first premiered on Nickelodeon in 1999, USA Today said.
