The American Pecan Council has partnered with Farmer's Fridge, a company that operates hundreds of automated smart fridges, to give away free, limited-edition pecan pie snack bites in select airports coast-to-coast for anyone whose flight gets delayed or canceled during Thanksgiving, according to a press release. The holiday treat is made with pecans, rolled oats, maple syrup and vanilla beans, and is packaged in a portable jar, ideal for travelers.

The council has launched the Pecanceled Flights Set Right Sweepstakes where one unlucky traveler who misses their Thanksgiving as the result of a "pecanceled" flight will be the lucky winner of the "Pie in the Sky" grand prize: a round-trip, first class air travel for the next five years to their Thanksgiving destination, a year's worth of American Pecans and more.
