The Great Pizza Chain Buffalo Wing Off!

Clockwise from the bottom: Domino's, Papa John's, Pizza Hut

Each of the Big Three pizza chains (Pizza Hut, Domino's, and Papa John's) has their own version of Buffalo wings so I tried them all to see which one would come out on top (I was pretty sick of wings at the end of all this).

In a fit of hubris or supreme confidence, Pizza Hut volunteered to foot (most) of the bill for the wings.

Let's see what somewhat logical but still completely arbitrary categories I come up with this time...

News: Red Robin - New Wine Milkshake

Having been there and done that with beer milkshakes, Red Robin has moved on to wine milkshakes with the new, limited-time Mango Moscato Wine Shake.

The new shake is available through September 1st features Alice White Moscato wine blended with Skyy Infusions Moscato vodka, mango puree, and vanilla soft serve.

News: Carl's Jr. / Hardee's - New Western X-tra Bacon Cheeseburger and X-tra Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit

Carl's Jr. and Hardee's are doing a promotional tie-in with the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past movie by offering twice the normal amount of bacon on the Western Bacon Cheeseburger and on the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit and calling them the Western X-Tra Bacon Cheeseburger and X-Tra Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit respectively.

Around the World: KFC Australia Threw Some Popcorn Chicken on Nachos and Called It a Day

Less than inspired but possibly good, KFC Australia added popcorn chicken to the more standard nacho toppings of shredded cheese and salsa for the new, limited-time Nacho Box.

Oddly enough (perhaps not in Australia but definitely here in the US), the cheese does not appear to be melted (?!). Of course, KFC doesn't serve nachos here in the US.

Review: Starbucks - Sausage & Cheddar Breakfast Sandwich

Starbucks' Sausage & Cheddar Breakfast Sandwich features a sausage patty, scrambled egg patty, and a slice of aged cheddar cheese on a toasted English muffin (well, actually the whole sandwich is warmed/toasted when you buy it).

I bought one for $2.95.

News: Pizza Hut - 8 Wings for $5

Starting today, Pizza Hut is offering an order of 8 wings starting at $5 just in time for the culmination of the college basketball season.

It's $5 for boneless, or "bone-out" wings as they're calling them (i.e. breaded chicken breast pieces), and $1 more for traditional or crispy (i.e. actual) wings. Pizza Hut's wings are normally 8 for $7 (although they have a pretty sweet promotion on Wednesday where it costs 50 cents a wing).

Wienerschnitzel will be celebrating National Corn Dog Day this upcoming Saturday, March 22 by offering their Corn Dogs at two for $1.

Review: Pepperidge Farm - Dulce de Leche Milanos

Pepperidge Farm's new Dulce de Leche Milanos feature a layer of dulce de leche-flavored filling along side a layer of milk chocolate between the two of the cookie's signature biscuits.

A 7-oz package was $2.50 on sale.
