Red Lobster Releases Cheddar Bay Biscuit Soundtrack Made with AI — See How To Make Them At Home!
Seafood chain restaurant Red Lobster has turned to artificial intelligence (AI) to promote its signature biscuits — a recipe that can be effortlessly recreated in your own kitchen.
Amid financial woes, the chain is considering the prospect of filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy to manage its debt, Bloomberg reports. Red Lobster attributes its financial struggles to costly leases and elevated labor expenses. Notably, the company faced significant losses last year, totaling $11 million, with the CFO pointing to the impact of the popular "Endless Shrimp" promotion. Established in 1968 with a solitary eatery in Lakeland, Florida, Red Lobster has expanded to approximately 650 outlets nationwide.
One of its most renowned offerings, the Cheddar Bay biscuits, is a complimentary item served in unlimited quantities with every meal. In a bid to boost its visibility and attract more patrons, Red Lobster has adopted AI technology to launch a unique biscuit soundtrack, coinciding with National Biscuit Day.
Red Lobster claims to have utilized fans' heartfelt expressions of adoration for Cheddar Bay Biscuits as input for an AI generator (although the specific AI system used remains undisclosed). The outcome: a collection of 30 tracks, each about a minute long, all celebrating the irresistible flavor of Cheddar Bay Biscuits.
Here's a glimpse of how you can craft some delectable cheddar biscuits, complete with all the essentials to kickstart your baking adventure, minus the need for a Red Lobster visit.
