The Weird and the Wonderful: August’s Summer Strangeness
Oi lads, forget boring beach towels and predictable lager. Summer ’25 is all about the oddball, the outrageous, and the downright daft… in the best way possible. Whether you're chilling in your garden or sneaking snacks during footie, these six new arrivals are exactly the kind of products Loaded lives for. Strap in, it gets fruity, fizzy, and fabulously strange.
Pringles Passport: Japanese Stir-Fry & Turkish Kebab
You read that right—crisps inspired by takeaways. The Passport range has just landed in UK Asda stores, with two quirky new flavours: Japanese Style Stir Fry and Turkish Style Kebab. Expect tomato-y, curry-spice undertones and a chance to offend your bloke friends at the BBQ. Available now for around £1.88 a tube.
Rodd’s Cold Brew Plant-Based Iced Coffee
Launched back in May and now rolling across Sainsbury’s, this dairy-free iced latte is the brainchild of YouTubers William Lenney & James Marriott. Made with oat milk and Colombian arabica beans—plant‑based, caffeinated, and probably more hipster than your brew at home. £2.20 a bottle.
TRIP Wild Strawberry Calm Drink
Need a drink that chills you out, not just fills you up? TRIP’s Wild Strawberry flavour (packed with magnesium & lion’s mane) is flying off TikTok-fuelled shelves in Tesco, Waitrose, M&S & more. It comes with Calm Premium trials and celeb backers to boot. Available now around £2‑£3 per can.
Nature Trail 7‑in‑1 Whistle
A gadget for the outdoorsy weirdos among us: this pocket whistle packs seven tools—whistle, mirror, compass, thermometer, magnifier, LED light, and stash space. £6.95 at Rex London. Comes in handy when you sober-up mid-hike.
