Review: Arby's - Cravin' Chicken Sandwich

A slight revamp on Arby's prior Crispy Chicken Fillet Sandwich, the new Cravin' Chicken Sandwich features a slightly different take on the fast food standard premium chicken sandwich with Cravin' sauce plus the standard lettuce, tomato, and breaded chicken fillet on a sesame bun.

Roasted chicken is also available but I went with the breaded chicken filet. Both versions cost $3.79.

McDonald's Dollar Menu McDouble is basically their Cheeseburger with an extra patty or their Double Cheeseburger with one less slice of cheese, however, you want to look at it.

For a limited-time, Pizza Hut is offering them for an even 5 bucks.

Review: Arby's - Curly Fries

The standard fries at Arby's are seasoned Curly Fries. They used to have regular "homestyle" fries (skin-on) but I guess they weren't that popular.

The Curly Fries are available at $1.79 for a small, $2.19 for a medium, and $2.39 for a large.

News: Subway - New Oven Crisp Chicken Sub

For those of you itching for the crunch of fried chicken without the actual frying, Subway has their new, limited-time Oven Crisp Chicken Sub which features chicken that is breaded and baked to give you crisp chicken without the grease.

A six-inch Oven Crisp Chicken Sub fits into Subway's Fresh Fit Subs clocking in at 420 calories and 6.7 grams of fat in its default build (which includes honey mustard and no cheese). Suggested price for a 6-inch is $4.00 and for a foot-long is $6.00. The sub will be available nationally until September 30, 2011 although I'm sure some Subway locations will try and keep it on the menu after that.

This is actually something Subway has been testing for a bit.
