Fatburger invades a Walmart near you!

Get your "fat" on this coming summer because Fatburger is hitting the road and stopping at Walmart's across the nation in celebration of Walmart selling frozen Fatburger beef hamburger patties.  If you haven't visited a Fatburger, it's well worth a check out.  Yummy burgers and no skimping on anything.  Make sure you have a healthy appetite before stepping in though. 

 

If you don't have one near you, keep your ear to the ground and see if the Fatmobile stops by your local Walmart where they will be giving out free sample burgers and Coke Zero.

Yo Quiero Taco Bell Protein?

Fan of protein?  Well, be prepared if you are in Dayton Ohio.  On July 25th, Taco Bell is going to release their Power Protein Menu for guests in that area.  The menu items feature TWICE the amount of protein than a normal menu item.  So far they've announced the Power Protein Burrito which has a double portion of your choice of chicken or steak includes a double portion of chicken or steak, romaine lettuce, roasted corn and pepper salsa, pico de gallo, guacamole, and reduced-fat sour cream wrapped up in a flour tortilla.  They also have a bowl counterpart without the tortilla (for all our gluten-free friends out there.)  

Make mine Steak!

They also announced that they'll be adding some more zero-cal soft drinks including my favorite Brisk Diet Green Iced Tea Peach.  Yummy!  If you wanna try that bad boy now, head over to Panda Express and then leave with your tea and go to Yummy Express to eat. 

This is for a test audience in Dayton but if it's successful, don't be surprised to see these items added to your local Taco Bell.

Then again...I miss this Taco Bell:

GORDITAS! GORDITAS!

Holy Commercial Break Batman!

So Monday while enjoying the Super Bacon Six Dollar Burger at Carl's Jr. before hopping to my local movie theater to watch Man of Steel, I had a flashback to 1989 when Taco Bell teamed up with Tim Burton's Batman film to debut Cinnamon Twists and those awesome plastic cups.  Don't remember?  Well, I present a commercial break.  Enjoy!

Also, Taco Bell teamed up with another Batman (kinda) film, Batman and Robin.  I remember this one because I remember revealing Bruce Wayne's mug on my cup ticket thinking I won the Batmobile only to have my mom tell me that I won Cinnamon Twists....yeah.  Palm to head!  Here's a bonus commercial break for you!

Put down your Subway and pick up a Bic Mac!

Well, thank you researchers!  After years of me saying that "you are no better getting Subway than McDonald's," and no one believing me, researchers at UCLA came to the same conclusion.  Take that Subway "healthy" people.  You are no better off than me and my Big Mac eating ways. HAAHAAHA!

 

To the results:

 

Researchers found that during their experiment, which you can read here, participants buying lunch at Subway would consume on average only 83 calories less than participants buying lunch at McDonald's.  Not a significant difference. 

 

On average researchers found that a sandwich at Subway ranks WAY higher in sodium content than an average sandwich at McDonald's.  Also, an average Subway sandwich has a higher calorie intake than an average McDonald's sandwich.

 

Of course, nutritionists caution that for a healthy diet you would want to avoid fast food.  Of course, I will not listen to that.  I say, moderation is always the best.  I'm a fast food junkie no if's, and's, or but's about it and always will be.  But it does feel really good to pass by Subway and snicker over my tasty Bic Mac. MUUUUHAHAHAHAHA!

Come here my pretty!

Living on a Pretzel Bun?! What?!

For several months now, Wendy's has been testing a Bacon Cheeseburger on a Pretzel bun in select markets.  Yum!  And now it appears it will be rolling out nationwide sooner than later.  Take a look at that beautiful burger footage:

Ummm...yes you can sign me up to your pretzel subscription!

You may recall that during the fall, Red Robin usually rolls out an Oktoberfest burger which also uses a wonderful pretzel bun.  Well it appears as though we may be able to have that pleasure everyday whenever Wendy's releases this bad boy of Burgerville to the general public.

I wait with bated breath!

McDonald's Breakfast After Midnight Debuts

McDonald's is now serving breakfast after midnight!  Breathe easy now if you have a late night hankering for an Egg McMuffin.  No longer do you have to wait until later in the morning to shove this delicious delight down the old pie-hole.  After a couple of years of "market research," McDonald's is officially going live with their "Breakfast After Midnight Menu."  Here's a look at it:

Notice you get to choose between fries and hashbrowns! Hello! Dreams do come true!

In So-Cal we've been experiencing a "Breakfast after Midnight Menu" for the last few months but it looks like McDonald's is making this match-made-in-heaven official for the country.  They've also added items that our original, "market research" menu didn't have.  It was quite small so that is definitely a welcomed change.  However, where is my Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit!?  Oh well, nothing's perfect.

Next task McDonald's: Breakfast All Day!

Here's the original story!

Happy Doughnut Day!

Today is National Doughnut Day.  Are you looking for a place to celebrate?  Let me put forward the most wonderful Doughnut shop I know, Peterson's in Escondido, CA.  One look at their Yelp page and you will be in love.

Since I found out about this wonderful family owned shop, I have refused to eat doughnuts anywhere else.  I have loved everything I have gotten there.  From cheese rolls, frosted donuts with sprinkles, zebras, maple bacon log, buttermilk, glazed, toasted coconut chocolate and the most fantastical Butter Log! Ah...you can NOT go wrong.

The best part....they are open 24-hrs!  Yes!  So get to it now and celebrate!
