Loads of new burger and sandwich deals coming our way over the next week or so! Also some fan favourites making a trumphal return. Not to mention the latest menu silliness from Burger King Taiwan. And the Baskin-Robbins Flavour of the Month is ‘Game Night’!
Taco Bell’s Beefy Crunch Burrito returns
The Bell is once again partnering with Fritos to bring back the Beefy Crunch Burrito. Last Seen 5 years ago, the menu item was a notable hit with fans. Taco Bell Rewards members voted for its return in a recent contest. The thing starts with a soft flour tortilla and a dose of the Bell’s signature seasoned beef. On top of that go rice, nacho cheese sauce, sour cream and Fritos Flamin’ Hot Flavored Corn Chips.
Burger King floats new Butter Chicken
… If you’re in Canada. The Butter Chicken Crispy Sandwich is described as a crispy-fried chicken breast, topped withed with white onion slices and butter chicken sauce, on a toasted potato bun.
Pretty simple, really. The sammy also comes in a spicy version. You can also get the sauce on Poutine. All for a limited time only.
Wendy’s gets wings
Wendy’s is offering a new deal: A Crispy Chicken Sandwich free to users of the mobile app who order a regular menu items totalling $2 or more. Yet another ploy to get fans to use the app.
$7 Meal Deal back at Dairy Queen
This time, the deal lets you choose either a 3-piece order of chicken strips…
… or an Original Cheeseburger as the centrepiece of the meal. You also get a fountain drink and a dessert.
McDonald’s partners with Picachu and Pokémon
McD’s is bringing back its popular Pokémon Happy Meals. Last time they were offered, they sold out instantly. This time, the prize in the box is a booster pack of 4 new Pokémon game cards. There are 15 new cards in all. The new Meals are launching first in UK and Europe. No word, yet, when they’ll be available in North America.
Intl. Alert! BK Taiwan premieres Spiral German Sausage
Why a German specialty in Taiwan? You’d have to ask the folks at Burger King Taiwan. They’ve been up some pretty kooky shenanigans over the past year or so, trying to elevate their brand’s visibility above the competition.
The Spiral German Sausage Burger features a beef patty topped with American (Processed) cheese, a spiral-shaped German sausage, and barbecue sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun.
Chick-Fil-A débuts new look
CFA has released pictures of its take on the restaurant of the future. In fact, it’s one of 2 they’ll be testing in Atlanta in 2024. The outstanding features of the new store include, second floor kitchen, contactless service, and 4 drive-thru lanes that can accommodate up to 75 cars. Why Atlanta? You may recall, that’s the home place of CFA…
Baskin-Robbins scoops Game Night ice cream
It’s a brand new flavour and it’s actually like a mashup of several other fancy flavours: salted caramel ice cream dotted with M&M’s Minis, buttered-popcorn clusters, and a caramel-pretzel swirl.
And… It’s the flavour of the month. There are limited-time deals exclusive to users of the BR mobile app…
And that’s the skinny…
… On the best of the best Fast Food deals on tap for the last few weeks of summer. See you back here in 7 for the next edition of Fast Food Week!
