Mrs. T's Pierogies Invites Parents to Celebrate the Chaos of Parenthood and Spill the T(ea) on their Funniest and Most Hectic Parenting Moments

New campaign from Mrs. T's also uncovers surprising statistics related to the joys of parenting, including mealtime chaos, at-home uh-ohs and more!  

SHENANDOAH, Pa., March 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The "tea" is hot, with new survey results revealing that 79% of parents find relief in venting to friends about their most stressful parenting moments.* Inspired by the opportunity to support parents, embrace the humor and help moms and dads find a space to discuss the really real realities of parenthood, Mrs. T's is launching its "Spill the T(ea)" campaign, encouraging parents to come together and share the not-so-glamorous, but often VERY funny, parts of raising kids.

As part of the campaign, Mrs. T's has joined forces with parenting influencer Lindsey Gurk (@lindseygurk), who is known for her takes on the amusement of parenting her two children, to Spill the T(ea) across Instagram, Tik Tok, and Facebook. Together, Mrs. T's and Gurk will spotlight relatable parenting content, memes, and commentary on real life moments. Whether it's mealtime meltdowns, after-school chaos, or sibling rivalries, Spill the T(ea) is all about encouraging parents to join the conversation on social media and connect with other parents to share their most frequent funnies and #parentingfails.

In an effort to uncover the most common challenges today's parents encounter, Mrs. T's recently conducted a survey that found:

• Nearly half of parents are looking to portray themselves and their kids in a more realistic light
• Parents experience an average of seven chaotic moments every day and 82% find humor in the imperfect moments
• In total, parents say they find their child doing something funny more than 1,000 times each year
• 55% shared the biggest "food fight" they face is getting their kids to try new foods

"Weekdays are a whirlwind in our household, especially after school ... imagine the kids running through the door, hungry and full of energy, snacks spilling everywhere, backpacks all over the floor, and of course the constant battle of what's for dinner. Having a quick and easy meal like Mrs. T's Pierogies is a total lifesaver amongst the chaos! Then once the kids are down for the night, I love connecting with a mom friend to laugh and remind ourselves we're doing our best," said Lindsey Gurk.

"Mrs. T's is here to help as parents juggle the woes and whoopsies that are so common in everyday life — especially those fights and funnies that take place around the dinner table," said Olivia L. Zawatski, Marketing Communications Manager at Mrs. T's Pierogies. "Whipping up these quick and delicious pierogies means parents can spend less time thinking about what to make for dinner and more time enjoying the little moments that create big smiles."

About Mrs. T's Pierogies
In 1952, Ted Twardzik Sr. dreamed of starting a food company inspired by his mother's pierogy recipe. He remembered how popular the Polish dumplings were at church festivals and thought people would be excited to purchase them from their local grocery stores year-round. Later that year, Ted sold the very first pierogy samples to his local grocery store in Shenandoah, PA, and to honor his mother Mary Twardzik – the Mrs. T – he called his company Mrs. T's Pierogies. Now, more than 70 years later, Mrs. T's Pierogies is the largest producer of frozen pierogies, producing 600 million pierogies a year.
