Air Fryers and Fluffernutter?

The pandemic is playing a bigger role in the dictionary.

Merriam-Webster is adding "ghost kitchen," "curbside delivery," "vaccine passport" and "super spreader."

Those are among 455 new words and phrases this year.

Others include "airfryer," "wiener roast," "dad bod," "fourth trimester," and "doorbell camera."

One of the most talked about foodie terms is "fluffernutter."

For those who don't know, that's a sandwich made with peanut butter and marshmallow cream.
