SodaStream and WIRES have made the cutest bottles.

As if quokkas could get any cuter, SodaStream has decided to put them on their bottles.

The brand recently partnered with the animal rescue organisation Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Service (WIRES) to raise awareness of threats caused by single-use plastics to endangered wildlife.

As part of the campaign, SodaStream has designed three 500ml bottle twin packs, each featuring two native and endangered animals.

The bottle packs are available in intervals for customers to collect, with the first pack launching this month.

You guessed it, the first to launch is the quokka and quoll set. In the coming months, keep an eye out for the wallaby and koala, and the platypus and whale shark.

For each pack bought, $1 will go to WIRES, helping wildlife in need.

To get your hands on the quokka and quoll edition, click here or go in-store to participating retailers, including Harvey Norman and Target.

Mad Mex’s New Menu Item Is Inspired by a Popular Mexican Street Food

mad mex chicken al pastor

Mexican restaurant chain Mad Mex has dropped a new protein, and it’s one of the most popular street foods in Mexico.

Enter, Chicken Al Pastor. It’s traditionally made with pork and grilled on a spinning rotisserie with a pineapple sitting a top, but Mad Mex has put its own spin on it, serving chicken bathed in an Al Pastor marinade with a touch of juicy pineapple.

You can order the protein-packed filling in your favourite burrito, bowl, quesadilla, nachos, or in a taco.

As always, these things are here for a good time, not a long time. Pop into your local Mad Mex restaurant, order delivery or through the Mad Mex app today.
