<div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">Chipotle has seen better days. The e.Coli outbreak did no favors for the brand, so the corporate team at Chipotle&#8217;s headquarters is doing some recovery PR. First stop on the PR recovery tour was the brand <a href="https://www.qsrmagazine.com/news/chipotle-closed-4-hours-today-food-safety-meeting?utm_campaign=20160208&amp%3Butm_medium=email&amp%3Butm_source=jolt&amp%3Bmicrosite=525176&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">shutting down all of their stores</a> on February 8 to re-train their staff and give them insight into what happened. - Rachel Stolba</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">This year&#8217;s Super Bowl commercials were a little lackluster, but that doesn&#8217;t mean there weren&#8217;t some diamonds in the rough. The Drum found that some of the <a href="http://www.thedrum.com/news/2016/02/08/doritos-dominates-top-10-most-shared-super-bowl-ads?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">most shared ads on the Internet</a> varied with Doritos, T-Mobile and Budweiser garnering the most views. - Ryan Paul</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">In the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl, Taco Bell teased they had a new menu item that was going to be revealed during the big game. The brand did not disappoint, as they unveiled the glorious Quesalupa; a combination of a quesadilla and chalupa. The brand could definitely skate by on food alone to promote the brand, but they <a href="http://www.eater.com/2016/2/7/10933934/taco-bell-quesalupa?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">spent $5 million on a 30-second ad</a>. Money well spent if you ask me. - Chris Zois</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">An outlier of the Super Bowl commercial fracas was a <a href="http://mashable.com/2016/02/07/mike-tyson-super-bowl-50-ad/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569#dOIbkxPk35q2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">little seen local commercial</a> for a plumbing, electrical and handy-work company based in Washington, D.C. What made the ad stand out was that Mike Tyson was in it, flashing some of his boxing skills. It was only a 30-second ad, but showed that Tyson has still got it. - Matt Diaz</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">Starbucks is getting in the Valentine&#8217;s Day spirit, as the brand recently unveiled their <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/leticiamiranda/starbucks-valentines-day-drinks-are-here-and-they-are-super?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569#.ywly067MQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">new line of drinks</a> for the holiday. The coffee brand will have a Molten Hot Chocolate, Molten Chocolate Latte and a Molten Chocolate Frappuccino. - Andi Summers</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">Uber&#8217;s recent unveiling of its new logo was met with a hushed reaction. The brand&#8217;s design refresh was met with lackluster reviews and some are attributing CEO Travis Kalanick&#8217;s micromanaging as <a href="http://www.theverge.com/2016/2/2/10898762/uber-ceo-travis-kalanick-logo-redesign-self-discovery?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a reason for the dull design</a>. - Michelle Lonnee</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">In a turn of events that could only be described as ironic, Uber&#8217;s <a href="http://www.fastcodesign.com/3056457/fast-feed/ubers-head-of-design-steps-down?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=weekly-web-roundup-3569" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">head of design recently stepped down</a>. Andrew Crow is credited with helping develop and grow the brand&#8217;s design department, but it's interesting he left the company after Uber&#8217;s new logo was widely ridiculed. - Brigit Larson</span></div>
