Aargh! What’s with all the flatbreads! Flatbreads are the latest trend in the quick-serve grub world. Taco Bell now has their own version called the Chicken Flatbread Sandwich. So how does this actually differ from the quesadilla? Well hey there’s chipotle sauce too… “chipotle” being another food industry buzz word in the last couple of years. Promo priced at just 99 cents.

Blizzard of the Month for September 2010 is the Brownie Batter Blizzard (or B3). This was actually the Blizzard of the Month in June 2009 too. How about letting me pick the next Blizzard of the Month DQ? I’m thinking we should just satisfy all the fans and break out the Cotton Candy Blizzard.
Double-chocolate brownie batter, blended with real fudge brownie pieces and creamy vanilla soft serve
Wendy’s Spicy Chicken Nuggets have made a return. Only 99 cents for 5 seems like a promo deal too good to pass up. We did a “First Impressions” post on these Spicy Nuggets back in December 2009 while they were in limited markets. I can definitely see myself grabbing a couple orders of nuggets and a small Frosty for lunch today.

Thanks to Sam from EatingEverywhere.com, I now know about Deep-Fried Beer. I’m not sure what to think of it, but I guess just about anything can get a deep-fried makeover. Where can you find this culinary oddity? The State Fair of Texas… running from Sept.24 – Oct. 17. There’s an annual contest held to scope out the most creative food creations and Deep-Fried Beer was a top pick this time around. So what exactly is Deep-Fried Beer like? Think of oversized Fruit Gushers/ravioli filled with Guinness. Past “Most Creative” winners include Fried Coke (2006) and Deep-Fried Butter (2009).
Any predictions for next years deep-fried contestant? Deep-Fried Toothpaste? Deep-Fried Chewing Gum?
Hey everyone, I’m in Ann Arbor, Michigan for a Domino’s Pizza blogger event going on tomorrow. So maybe I’ll let them know about my idea of a pizza topped with Buffalo Chicken Kickers? We’ll see… So Domino’s has had a big year with an overhaul to their pizzas with changes to their sauce, cheese and crust. So putting the BIG 3 against one another, which one is your favorite?
Apparently August is National Sandwich Month… Let’s talk peanut butter! How do you like your peanut butter sandwich? I’m not just talking to the 2nd graders out there, I’m talking to those yet to grow out of the joy of a simple PB sandwich. Well some PB sandwiches aren’t so simple… I’m not a traditional creamy peanut butter and grape jelly on crust-less white bread type of person.
I like crunchy peanut butter, fresh cut apples and honey on a heartier multi-grain sliced bread. I recently did a guest post for I Ate A Pie showing off my creation. So what’s in your combo? Bananas? Marshmallow fluff? Jelly?
Recently, Popeyes Spicy and Mild Bonafide® bone-in fried chicken was the favorite in a national taste test against KFC® Original Recipe® fried chicken.
I’ll make just about anything into a sandwich. A slab of country fried steak smothered in gravy will feel right at home in between the comfy confines of a biscuit. I’m packing on pounds just looking at the picture below. Introducing the Country Fried Steak ‘N’ Gravy Biscuit from Hardee’s.
Price: $2.19 (may vary by location)

This “Pizza Burger” story has been making the rounds for the past week or so. So some genius at Burger King came up with Pizza Burger creation and, to me, it seems like an interesting shareable meal. People might be baffled at the fact that this thing clocks in at 2,520 calories and 144 grams of fat, but seriously… it’s a meal for 4 right? This Pizza Burger features mozzarella cheese, marinara sauce, pepperoni and pesto. It debuts next month at the Whopper Bar in New York city for $12.99. Thoughts?
