You can expect Costco, the wholesale supermarket, to bring back some version of their prepared Thanksgiving meals this year.

And of course, you can always rely on Costco for all your pie and dinner roll needs!

Meaning, it’s turkey tenderloin and cornbread stuffing wrapped in puff pastry dough – yum! It also comes with gravy and cranberry sauce, so you end up getting a pretty good deal for $13.

Thanksgiving is all about spending time with the people you love — and food. Don’t forget about the food. To help you out with that second part, Krispy Kreme has unveiled its turkey day-inspired donuts. The flavors will remind you of all your favorite things that end up on your plate on this pants-busting holiday.

The new Thanksgiving Collection includes four festive donuts: Pecan Pie Doughnut, Cranberry Orange Doughnut, Dutch Apple Pie Doughnut, and Gobbler Doughnut. From flavor-stuffed options to those drizzled with tastes of the season, you just might ditch your typical after-dinner slices in favor of a dessert donut.

  • Pecan Pie Doughnut: An Original Glazed donut dipped in butter tart filling and topped with candied pecans and pie crust crumbles

  • Cranberry Orange Doughnut: A donut filled with cranberry, dipped in cranberry icing, and drizzled with icing

  • Dutch Apple Pie Doughnut: A donut filled with apple pie filling, dipped in caramel icing, topped in cinnamon, and decorated with an icing lattice

  • Gobbler Doughnut: A heart-shaped donut dipped in chocolate icing, decorated with chocolate Kreme and pretzel stick “legs,” and topped with Thanksgiving sprinkles and a Turkey Face fondant piece
