Snoop Dogg can make even the most mundane tasks awesome ... so Burger King knew he was the perfect pitchman to explain their hot dogs in a new employee training video.

We got our hands on the internal video being shown to all BK employees introducing them to "Grilled Dogs," which are set to debut later this month.

We're told BK has their employees watch videos on all menu items ... and execs wanted to add a fun twist to pump everyone up.

Unfortunately for BK employees, Snoop's title of "Grilled Dogs Training Ambassador" is only ceremonial ... so don't get too excited for smoke breaks.

See's Candies has screwed with Jewish tradition by advertising its Valentine's Day boxes as kosher, when they're strictly for the goyim.

Avi Weiss, a Jewish man who keeps kosher, claims in a new lawsuit he wandered into a See's shop last month looking for some kosher sweets. He says the box was specifically advertised as "kosher certified." Check out the lower left corner of the display above the stacks of boxes.

Now here's where it's a little weird. Avi never explains how he knew the candies weren't kosher. He doesn't say if he ate them nor does he say what gave the unholiness away.

Avi DOES say kosher certified products "command a premium in the marketplace," and because the boxes aren't kosher he overpaid.

Peyton Manning and the Papa John's guy really are tight ... 'cause the pizza mogul swooped in and gave Peyton a victory kiss ... before Peyton's wife!

As the Broncos sealed their victory Sunday night, Papa John ran over to his most famous pitchman with a special delivery ... a kiss on the QB's cheek.

Saucy!

Lisa Vanderpump's restaurant PUMP had some surprise patrons Friday morning -- LA County firefighters who rushed in to put down a kitchen fire ... TMZ has learned.

Fire department sources tell us they arrived around 11 AM and quickly put down a small smoldering electrical fire that was contained within a wall. It caused no injuries or major damage.

'RHOBH' and "Vanderpump Rules" fans know PUMP well, and as a result ... it's also become a big tourist stop. We're told they'll be open for biz tonight ... if you can get a reservation.

10:30 AM PT -- We checked and the Pizza Hut Abby called does not offer the $5 flavor menu -- it's a national deal, but individual stores don't have to honor it.

Abby Lee Miller treated a Pizza Hut manager like a pre-teen girl in a tutu -- unleashing her social media soldiers on the guy after an argument over her order.

The "Dance Moms" instructor went ballistic Thursday night when she called a PH in Santa Monica to place an order. Our well placed pizza sources tell us Abby was put on hold, like anyone else might be.

When a PH employee got on the line, we're told she inquired about the "$5 pizza deal" ... but when the employee didn't know what that was, Abby got pissed and asked for a manager.

We're told the convo got heated. Abby claims PH hung up on her, and then she hit the nuclear button -- posting the store's phone # to her 2 million Instagram followers, asking them to call "the idiot who keeps hanging up on paying customers."

Our sources say the store was flooded with calls until closing, and it was so bad they had to stop answering the phones. We're told PH has been reaching out to Abby, asking her to take down the post as they're concerned it will continue to screw up business, but she hasn't responded.

BTW, seems Abby was asking about the $5 flavor menu. The lady knows her pizza!

"Beverly Hills Nannies" star Ari Bellamar claims she wound up in the hospital after a valet attendant went ballistic and spit into her family's car.

Ari says the nasty run-in went down outside Dan Tana's, the famous Italian restaurant in West Hollywood. After dropping their car off at Dan Tana's valet, Ari and her family decided to hit up a different restaurant right next door for takeout.

She says when they came back their car was blocked and the valet attendant was pissed they didn't eat at Dan Tana's. Ari claims he body checked her husband and then hocked a loogie into a napkin and threw it inside their car as they drove off.

Ari is 4 months pregnant and says the stress made her start spotting so much, she was admitted to a hospital. The baby is okay, but Ari's husband has filed a battery report with cops.

When you're in a $110 million contract -- you go to the finest restaurants.

Just ask Aaron Rodgers ... who went out to dinner Monday night with his GF Olivia Munn at Mr Chow in Bev Hills ... one of the most expensive Chinese restaurants in town.

'RHONJ' star Teresa Giudice is all business and gives very little away for free.

Our photog got her outside The London in NYC Tuesday and asked the most basic of questions ... what she ate on her first night of freedom.

We know this much ... the recipe's in her new "Skinny Italian" cookbook.

Teresa and husband Joe are still hustling to pay the rest of the restitution since Joe is headed off to prison soon.

The Arizona Cardinals could be in trouble ... 'cause the Carolina Panthers have EXTRA motivation to win on Sunday -- 150 LBS. of BACON & SAUSAGE -- courtesy of Waffle House.

The Panthers have joked that their secret weapon is WH food. Now, one win away from the Super Bowl, Waffle House has plans in motion to hook up Cam and the guys with a HUGE breakfast ... should they be victorious.

"We have reached out to the team and told them to name the place and time," a Waffle House spokesperson tells TMZ Sports. "We will be there ready to provide them with their much-needed Waffle House food."

The menu? 100 to 150 pounds of bacon and sausage ... as well as all the waffles the team can eat!!

He's one of the greatest Italian soccer players ever ... and super rich so he can eat at the best restaurants in the world ... so we had to ask Alessandro Del Piero -- whatcha think of Olive Garden?

FYI -- ADP is a futbol god who led Italy to a World Cup victory back in 2006 ... and is widely considered one of the best players of his generation.

He's also a big fan of Italian cuisine.

So, we put Olive Garden to the test ... and apparently, it's got the authentic stamp of approval!

Maybe he can double date with Kobe?

Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood got all Brazilian with their MUCH younger chicks, but we ain't talking thongs -- we're talking meat. Tons of meat.

The Stones hit up the carnivore mecca on Wednesday night ... Brazilian steakhouse Fogo de Chao in Bev Hills ... where it's a guarantee you'll leave FULL.

Odd dinner spot for Mick -- who brought his 20-something ballerina GF ... but perfect for Ronnie and his pregnant 37-year-old wife, Sally. Cravings, man.

Beef. It's not just for Mick and Keith Richards anymore.

Lisa Vanderpump showed her support for Bravo's newest housewife franchise -- "The Real Housewives of Potomac" -- when the cast stopped by PUMP Restaurant Thursday night for dinner.

Lisa wasn't there but we're told she sent a note welcoming the women to the Bravo family and hooked 'em up with PUMP hats. The new 'Housewife' franchise premieres Sunday, and we're told Bravo execs think it's going to be their new hit.

The ladies are definitely saving the drama for the cameras -- we're told there was no argument about the bill at PUMP. They each paid separately.

Scott Disick is no longer hiding his new relationship, because we got pics of Scott and girlfriend Lina Sandberg very openly showing affection in a very public place.

Scott, Lina and one of Scott's pals lunched at the Polo Lounge in Bev Hills. They were kissing inside the restaurant, located inside the very popular Beverly Hills Hotel.

Lina's a Wilhelmina L.A. model who knew him for awhile, but a month ago they went to Nobu restaurant in West Hollywood and the relationship changed. We're told they talk and text all the time and in the last month they've seen each other frequently.

It's a pretty clear sign ... Kourtney's history.

Miss Colombia may have lost her crown, but companies pitching burgers and beers want to re-crown her and make her super famous and wealthy.

Sources connected with the scorned Miss Universe contestant tell TMZ, a high-powered manager -- who reps Sofia Vergara -- is working on her behalf and is in talks with Burger King for a fantastic commercial. Miss Colombia would star in a kids' meal spot where everyone keeps their crown.

And we're told the manager -- Luis Balaguer -- is also talking to Corona about a commercial featuring Ariadna Gutierrez on the beach with a cold one. The hook -- "corona" is "crown" in Spanish.

And there's more ... we're told Ariadna's dream is to become a Victoria's Secret angel, and our sources say Balaguer was in touch with the company on Tuesday.

BTW ... we're told Ariadna was enraged at both the Miss Universe pageant and Steve Harvey after the screw-up and hasn't returned a single call to either. Fact is, it's the best thing that could have happened to her.

Seems there's a bright side to not making the playoffs ... Double Doubles ... 'cause Rams stud Akeem Ayers says he's gonna start his off-season conditioning at IN-N-OUT!!!

Ayers was out at Mastro's grabbing a "light" bite when we asked him what would be the first thing he stuffs his face with when the season is finito ... and he no longer has to watch what he eats.

Peep the clip -- Akeem KNOWS what he wants ... and how he wants it ... saying he's going full fat boy at the fast food joint, with "animal style" everything (grilled onions, special sauce, cheese).

August Alsina’s not getting onstage unless he gets $60k ... and a feast.

We got hold of the rider for the New Orleans R&B crooner, and he's got food on the brain. His dressing room becomes a backdrop for a banquet ...

-- 20 pieces of hot Popeyes chicken
-- red beans and rice
-- jalapeno peppers
-- biscuits, mashed potatoes with gravy

The dressing room is also well stocked with booze ...

-- 2 Hennessy
-- 1 Cabernet
-- 1 Honey Jack Daniels
-- 1 Patron
-- 1 case of Bud Light

August also takes care of his 20-person crew. They get ...

-- 12 Rib-eye steaks
