Kraft Heinz has introduced Not Hot Dogs and Not Sausages, marking the first plant-based offerings from Oscar Mayer. These new products aim to cater to the growing demand for flavorful plant-based foods in the United States.

The plant-based market in the United States is predicted to surge from $8.3 billion in 2023 to $19 billion by 2030. Despite this growth, plant-based hot dogs and sausages remain relatively untapped due to dissatisfaction with existing options’ taste and texture. In response, Kraft Heinz has launched new Oscar Mayer Not Hot Dogs and Not Sausages, available in Bratwurst and Italian sausage flavors, to fill this gap in the market.

The introduction of Oscar Mayer Not Hot Dogs and Not Sausages represents the Kraft Heinz’s dedication to swiftly bringing innovative plant-based products to market. This launch adds to their expanding plant-based portfolio, which includes Kraft Not Mac&Cheese, Kraft Not Cheese Slices, and Not Mayo. Looking ahead, The Kraft Heinz Not Company plans to enter additional categories and expand internationally.

On a brutally hot and humid late summer afternoon in Tampa, Florida, the New York Jets lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 29 – 27.

The Jets mounted an incredible comeback on Sunday, as they overturned a 17-point fourth quarter lead in dramatic fashion to go ahead by one with two minutes to go, only to then give up a late field goal to lose in heartbreaking fashion, 29-27.

For much of the game, it never really looked like being anything other than a comfortable Bucs win, but the Jets scored two late touchdowns to make it a one-possession game and then Will McDonald’s incredible field goal block and touchdown return suddenly had the Jets on top.

Taylor, starting for the injured Justin Fields, completed his first pass of the second quarter, at which stage he was 7-for-8 for 55 yards, and Nick Folk’s field goal capped his second successful drive to start the game to make it 6-3 Jets. Over the remainder of the half, Taylor got absolutely nothing going, as he completed three of eight passes for zero yards with the pick-six and was sacked twice, losing a fumble. He padded his stats on the two late drive to end up with almost 200 passing yards.

After a lengthy standoff, the New York Mets re-signed Pete Alonso to a two-year, $54 million contract over the offseason. While the deal kept the slugger in Queens for 2025, it also includes an opt out for the second year. And, barring an unforeseen disaster, Alonso will almost certainly re-enter free agency at the end of the season.

The Mets could work out a new contract with the five-time All-Star. But Alonso will have other suitors interested in a power-hitting corner infielder. It’s unclear if either side will prioritize the other in free agency. And Alonso reflected that uncertainty when discussing his future with the team.

“We’ll see what happens. I love it, it’s great. But you can’t really predict anything,” Alonso said, per New York Post Sports. “It’d be great to stay… whatever happens happens.”
