Kim Kardashian is unleashing her army of followers on the All in Challenge -- which is sure to raise a ton of cash, but it's also setting up one fan with the deal of a lifetime.

Kim accepted Gisele Bündchen's challenge Monday by announcing to her more than 167 MILLION followers on Instagram she's joining the fundraiser to help feed people amid the economic crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The opportunity's insane -- win lunch at a top spot in L.A. for a winner and a guest with the Kardashian sisters. The deal also includes a 1-night hotel stay and 2 roundtrip coach airfare tickets to L.A. The winner and guest will also be included in the filming of the upcoming season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

As you know by now ... 100% of the proceeds will go to relief efforts through Meals on Wheels America and America's Food Fund, which benefits Feeding America and celebrity chef Jose Andres' remarkable efforts through his World Central Kitchen.

As we reported ... 76ers partner Michael Rubin, who created the All In Challenge, told us he thinks Tom Brady's about to draw a 7-figure donation to the cause thanks to his first-ever game-worn Buccaneers jersey.

BTW, in addition to challenging Kim to join ... Tom's model wife is raffling off a trip to her next Dior photoshoot in NYC.

Things are definitely heating up. 🔥

Sofia Vergara's got a fun game for folks to play at home during quarantine -- it's a bit of a thirst trap, but with a bootyful twist: whose behind is whose?

The Colombian actress posted a lovely photo this weekend showing herself and her niece, Claudia, rocking two-piece thong bikinis and looking over a balcony at what appears to be Sofia's home. You can't see either of their faces -- but that wasn't the point of Sofia's post.

Sofia wrote of the aunt-niece duo in Spanish, "Modelo viejo del 72 y modelo nuevo del 92 😂😂😂😂 #alwaystwinning @cdvergara ❤️❤️❤️🌝🌝🌝." That translates to "old model from '72 and new model from '92."

BTW, she also posted a photo of Claudia from the front, bending over to make a burger, with uncle Joe Manganiello beside her working on his own grub. She's a lookalike from the side as well, but(t) as far as that first photo goes, it's actually SUPER hard to tell for sure who's who, no?

Anyway, just for funsies ... here's another look at the same pic in black and white -- only now it's coming from Claudia, who also seems to be in on the same guess-who game.

She writes, "Same same, but different ... cual es cual? 😂" Which is which, indeed. We could play this all day!!!

Land O'Lakes made a big branding change, and one woman's utter and ridiculous fury at the move has caught the attention of the Internet -- which is churning up joke after joke.

You mighta heard about the company removing the image of a Native American woman holding a box of their butter from the logo and simply having the surrounding lakes and trees instead -- which was seen by some as a progressive step forward and long overdue.

Of course, the pendulum swings both ways ... with many people getting astoundingly pissed about the pivot to "PC culture" -- including one Twitter user who had some choice words.

The lady's tweet -- which has resurfaced and since gone viral -- reads in clear terms, "Land O Lakes can kiss this butter buyer's ass. My family has been a Land O Lakes family since I can remember. No more. I'm fine with the store brand from here on out."

There's even more outrage ... she goes on to say, "Your virtue signaling lost you some good customers who were always willing to pay more for your product. #BuhByeLOL." The lady also included a pic of the old Land O'Lakes butter, as well as a shot of her cart with a TON of the generic store brand stuff which she apparently bought. Okay, jeez ... point made.

Now, Twitter found this and is having a field day ... with many people pointing out that to identify oneself and your brood as a "Land O Lakes family" is interesting in and of itself, but there are even more takes that are coming from this ... including cracks at LOL itself.

One user took a screenshot of a text exchange between her and her dad, and her papa said ... "Finally got rid of her. But kept her land." The daughter replied, "omg." That's one way to look at it -- then of course, there's the 'Star Wars' POV too, which is more light-hearted.

People super-imposed Lando Calrissian onto the logo and turned Land O'Lakes butter into Lando Lakes butter ... slow clap, well done, guys. The rabbit hole goes deeper and deeper on this thing, and we're not gonna walk you through all of it, 'cause it gets pretty weird.

No mooning over Miami -- this half-naked woman was topless -- but she did serve up her own version of a Grand Slam ... destroying at least 100 plates in a SoCal Denny's.

The topless woman was caught on video Thursday around 11:20 AM grabbing plates from a large stack in the seating area of the Hawthorne, CA restaurant ... and smashing the hell out of them.

Her rampage went on for at least a couple minutes as patrons and employees yelled for her to stop. Her only reply was, "Shut the f*** up, man" -- and then quickly back to the bang-up work at hand.

Police showed up while she was still in the middle of her plate-chucking riot, and eventually controlled the situation and detained the woman.

Cops tell us they'd gotten a call about a woman at a bus stop taking her clothes off, and arguing with people before making her way into the Denny's.

We're told she was detained and will undergo a mental evaluation -- cops believe she was under the influence of something.

BTW, the Denny's is closed for regular dining due to the coronavirus, but still open for online order pickups -- which, luckily, don't require plates.

Cutting ties with Carole Baskin didn't necessarily work out for her ex-husband or Joe Exotic -- but a Baskin-Robbins shop is cashing in by doing exactly that.

Peggy Heldstab, owner of the Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop in Junction City, Kansas, tells TMZ ... it was her son's idea to slap the "No Relation to Carole Baskin" sign on her store's marquee sign. She says her son and his wife saw the popular Netflix documentary 'Tiger King' and are huge fans ... hence the suggestion for the sign.

She says her son swore the sign would be especially appreciated right now with the popularity of the doc ... coupled with the thousands of memes, songs and dances that have sprung up, with most of them taking shots at Carole Baskin.

But get this ... Peggy says she had never heard of 'Tiger King,' but took her son's word for it because he insisted the sign would cheer people up. He wasn't lying. The sign's exploded all over social media, and that's translated extremely well for the cash register.

We're told Peggy put up the sign Sunday and that very same day sales doubled compared to the day before. What's more ... the shop drew tons of attention from fans driving by waving and honking in approval of the sign. Her son was right, and business (carry-out/DoorDash only) has been great ever since.

As most small business owners can relate, Peggy says she was worried about her business with stay-at-home orders, and business doesn't get any easier when it's trying to make up for any stalled business during the cold months. And, that's why the Carole Baskin sign couldn't have come at a better time.

As for corporate reaching out to her shop to give her its 2 cents ... Peggy says not a peep. She says she's able to make sign decisions independently. And, in case you're wondering ... Peggy says she's now a few episodes into 'Tiger King.'

Chipotle may need to start charging even more for guac -- the company is paying the largest fine EVER in a food safety case stemming from more than a thousand instances of food poisoning.

The Justice Department announced Tuesday, Chipotle's been ordered to pay a whopping $25 million fine to settle criminal charges over foodborne illness outbreaks at its restaurants.

You'll recall, more than 1,100 people across the U.S. claimed they got sick from Chipotle restaurants between 2015 and 2018. The feds charged Chipotle with 2 counts of violating the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act for selling tainted food.

According to the DOJ, Chipotle admitted to more than several instances that resulted in outbreaks. For example, in December 2015 an ill employee in Boston was ordered to continue working after vomiting inside the restaurant -- a clear violation of company policy.

The feds say 2 days later, the employee returned to work and helped package a catering order for a Boston College basketball team, whose members were among customers sickened by the outbreak.

Chipotle was also accused of failing to hold food at appropriate temperatures to prevent and control the growth of foodborne pathogens.

Aside from the 8-figure fine, the company also has to be under a food safety compliance program for 3 years.

Ben & Jerry's is yet again putting down the scooper and picking up a megaphone on 4/20 to tell people about the injustice people of color experience over weed arrests.

The famous ice cream company followed in their own footsteps on both Sunday and Monday, with two timely posts about the unofficial holiday ... pointing out that, yes, minorities -- specifically, black people -- are disproportionately punished over having herb.

B&J come with some stats ... pointing out African-Americans are 264% more likely than white people to be arrested for cannabis possession, even though they use at similar rates. They write, "Cannabis is legal in 33 states, but hundreds of thousands of people are still arrested for possession every year — a disproportionate number of them Black. This #420, get the facts then join us and @aclu_nationwide to take action to pass the MORE Act."

Just the day before, they put up another informational post, which noted that white folks are the ones who seem to be profiting the most on the legalization of weed ... something they say isn't right. Their messaging here is clear ... POC are getting left behind on this issue.

Of course, Ben & Jerry's conducted a very similar campaign last year, again pointing that despite weed being legal in 33 states now -- it's black people and other minorities that are constantly getting busted for it. A year later, they're hammering their point home twice as hard.

This time, they're also championing a piece of federal legislation they're hoping gets signed into law. It's called the MORE Act -- Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement -- and just as the name describes, it's aimed at getting weed drug offenders out of prison.

Kylie Jenner's cravings for some good quarantine snacks apparently got so intense, she forgot to throw on shoes before grabbing her munchies.

Kylie hit up her BFF Stassie's crib on Sunday for a much-needed snack run in L.A. On her way out, photogs caught Kylie getting back to her car barefoot with a bag of chips and water in tow. As for the water, it's friend Jaden Smith's Just Water company.

Kylie went makeup-free for the munchie run ... with her hair back and some matching tie-dye sweats ... and a big grin on her face.

As we reported ... it was exactly one month ago when she urged her millions of fans to stay home and take quarantining seriously. Her message came just after the Surgeon General, Jerome Adams, urged social media influencers to help the cause and spread the stay-at-home message -- and named Kylie specifically.

She's also donated $1M to relief efforts and hand sanitizer to medical professionals on the front line.

At long last, an L.A.-area farmers market has FINALLY implemented proper social distancing protocols for the masses ... and it looks like Malibu's the first to do it well.

These photos show the Malibu Farmers Market in full swing Sunday, but it looks pretty dead -- which is a good thing. It appears organizers have put in place new rules that they're making their shoppers (and vendors) abide by ... so far, it seems successful.

You can see ropes along the front of the farmer's stands, with signs telling people to stand behind the line. The tents here are also a good 6-feet apart from each other -- and the whole layout in general is way more spread out than what we've seen at other markets in recent weeks. The shoppers themselves also seem to be practicing appropriate safety measures, with solid social distancing and even face masks to boot. Well done, Malibu!

Granted, the 'Bu isn't nearly as populated as some of the more south-end cities below it -- places like Santa Monica, Brentwood, Studio City and other neighboring L.A. 'hoods have populations that are more than double than that of Malibu, which is a meager 13,000 or so.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle quietly delivered food to needy folks in Los Angeles ... marking the couple's first public outing since moving to Hollywood.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have kept an extremely low profile since relocating from Canada to California last month, and they ventured out Wednesday for a very good deed.

Harry and Meghan wore caps and face coverings while dropping off meals to needy L.A. residents impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Meghan took no chances with the virus, only touching surfaces with her gloved hand.

It's definitely not how you picture a Royal couple ... Harry and Meghan dressed super casually in pants and sneakers -- they looked like typical Postmates deliverers.

The Sussexes volunteered with Project Angel Food, an L.A. nonprofit that prepares and delivers medically tailored food to people suffering from chronic illnesses.

Our sources say Harry and Meghan dropped off the grub at a low-income housing unit for disabled and special needs residents and then made a few stops inside the building.

Welcome to the real Hollywood, where it ain't all glitz and glamour.
