Frozen Friday: Marie Callender's - Spaghetti with Meat Sauce

Marie Callender's frozen Spaghetti with Meat Sauce sets itself apart from similar frozen entrees with a slice of seasoned garlic bread.

I got this 15-ounce box for $2.50 but they typically go for around $4.49 at my local supermarket.

Neat! McDonald's Peru Crispy Chicken Family Meal

There's something about fried chicken in a bucket that speaks to me. It might be the fact that it's the perfect shape for cradling in one arm as you help yourself with the other.

But how about McDonald's fried chicken? While McDonald's several countries offers fried chicken, in Peru, they offer it in a family-sized bucket! Neat!

Review: Dunkin' Donuts - Mint Hot Chocolate

Dunkin' Donuts Mint Hot Chocolate offers the warm taste of hot chocolate flavored with mint.

I bought this drink in an airport as part of the combo. The menu was a bit kooky and prices are a bit inflated at U.S. airports but I paid $6.58 for a drink/sandwich combo. If you were to buy it in a normal Dunkin' it would probably cost you about $1.99 for a 14-ounce medium like the one I got.

News: Wendy's - New Spicy Guacamole Chicken Club

Starting tomorrow, Wendy's is debuting their new Spicy Guacamole Chicken Club at their locations nationwide (I'm keep wanting to spell "guacamole" as "guacomole" for some reason).

The sandwich takes a Spicy Chicken Fillet and tops it with a slice of spicy pepper jack cheese and balances out the heat with some creaminess in the form of ranch sauce and guac. Caught in-between the spicy and cream battle is the good old trio of bacon, lettuce, and tomato. As with the rest of Wendy's premium sandwiches (think $4.00 and up), it's served on a buttered and toasted bun.

News: Hardee's New Hand-Scooped Oreo Ice Cream Sandwich Arrives

It looks like the Hand-Scooped Oreo Sandwich that has been on Carl's Jr. menu has finally made its way east to sister chain Hardee's.

A fresher take on the Oreo Ice Cream Sandwiches you might find at your local grocers, it features two giant-sized (well, compared to normal Oreos) wafers with a scoop of vanilla ice cream in between.

Review: Biscoff Crunchy Spread

Biscoff Crunchy Spread is something that I had never heard of until my cousin mentioned it to me. It's a spread with a peanut-butter-like consistency that is made of finely ground Biscoff cookies (the spread is 65% cookie) with crumbled cookies bits of Biscoff mixed it to provide some crunch; a smooth version is also available but the crunchy version is new.

I got my jar to try for free courtesy of Biscoff but I'm told that it goes for about $5 for a 13.4-ounce jar at Fresh & Easy and is also available online from the company directly as well as Amazon. I've never personally seen it in stores before though.

After years of sporting a spicy version, Burger King finally plies a regular value-priced chicken sandwich, dubbing it the "Classic Chick'N Crisp" sandwich.

The deal is similar to the brand's popular "Pay Day" promotions in prior years which have sold out in the past.

The El Pollo Loco Roja Wet Burrito is only available for a limited time and features El Pollo Loco’s trademark flame-grilled chicken stuffed inside a burrito along with pinto beans, pico de gallo salsa, fresh cilantro, diced onions, and melted Jack cheese. It is then grilled and covered in Colorado sauce (a red chili pepper sauce) before being topped with more fresh cilantro and Cotija cheese.

The price of admission? An even $5.99 for the burrito.
