- Thousands of virtual brands continue to flood delivery apps like Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub.
- Chains like IHOP prepare delivery-only brands from their kitchens to earn extra revenue.
- IHOP is launching a third delivery-only brand – a chicken menu by a "Stranger Things" star.
IHOP is offering a menu of delivery-only chicken meals developed by "Stranger Things" star Noah Schnapp.
TenderFix by Noah Schnapp is IHOP's third delivery-only venture.
The meals are prepared from about 1,000 IHOP locations. The chain is leaning into virtual brands, even as its sister chain, Applebee's, has pulled back on its delivery-only menu, called Cosmic Wings.
