Review: Popeyes $5 Boneless Wing Bash (New/Limited Time Only)

As we have said in past articles, chicken wings are a big thing. And they have been for years. Why buy whole pieces of chicken when you can gnaw on little bitty wings? Makes sense, right?? If it makes sense or not is really irrelevant. They are popular, and sell by the ton. We wish we would have thought of selling small wings and made a fortune. We would have more money for beer, and wouldn’t have to be writing these articles all day! Um…we mean…we like writing articles all day for you, our dear readers! Anyway, wings are a…

Review: Starbucks Affogato-style Frappuccino (New/Limited Time Only)

It’s hot as hell in Kansas. There’s a pretty good chance it’s hot as hell wherever you are right now. It is July, after all. And if we get through this, then we get to look forward to August! OH MY! So what is an overheating Fewd Snob to do? Typically, we would reach for a beer. But, let’s be realistic for just one minute. Even a Fewd Snob can’t drink booze every minute of the day. Sometimes (not all the time) you have to take a break and dry out. Or, at least drive to the store to get…

Fewd Bite: Crystal Pepsi Returns! Oh My!

From the land of “Why?,” PepsiCo is bringing back Crystal Pepsi! You remember Crystal Pepsi, right? Back in the early ’90s, Crystal Pepsi was introduced. It was basically just regular Pepsi, but clear in color. Fascinating! It lasted for less than two years. Nobody cared. Why? Because, why?? What’s the point of drinking clear Pepsi? Essentially, it was a marketing ploy to appeal to stupid young people (aren’t most marketing ploys like this??). The young people of the early ’90s said, “Like, wouldn’t it be, like, so totally cool if, like, we had some clear Pepsi?” Pepsi answered the question….

Review: Burger King Mac n’ Cheetos (New/Limited Time Only)

As you all know by now, we Fewd Snobs cover real food. You know, stuff that normal people eat. This, naturally, includes a variety of fast foods. And over the nearly year and a half we have been around, we have covered a variety of new food items. Some of these we thought would be big, and they were not. Others we thought would be small, and they were huge. But we have rarely seen a new food item with as much of a buzz around it as the new Mac n’ Cheetos from Burger King. It seems like everybody…

Review: Subway Parmesan Garlic Roast Beef Sandwich (New/Limited Time Only)

It takes quite a bit to get us to eat at Subway these days. There isn’t much to get excited about, after all. Instead of making sandwiches that don’t suck, Subway has been focusing on chasing trends lately. Antibiotic-free meats, “carved” turkey, and bullcrap like that. Meh. Every time we think we have given up on Subway, they do something that actually sounds remotely interesting. And here we are. Again. Yay! We saw a commercial for the new, limited time only Parmesan Garlic Roast Beef sandwich. Then, we heard commercials on the radio. Swell. So, we go to look it…

Review: Popeyes Magnolia Blossom Chicken (New/Limited Time Only)

If we were important people, and we were in charge of new menu items for a major restaurant chain, how would we come up with our next new thing? Maybe smoke a little weed. Get a little high. And then, what would pop into our minds? “Flowers, man! Look at all the pretty flowers! Let’s make chicken that looks like flowers, man!” Well, that is NOT what we would do. But evidently, that’s exactly what the powers that be at Popeyes did. You see, Popeyes sells Louisiana chicken. So, it is must be a given that Popeyes would sell chicken…

Fewd Bite: Arby’s Buffalo Chicken Slider (New/Limited Time Only)

Seems like it has been a while since we did a Fewd Bite. What are those? We don’t remember either. Too much alcohol over the last year… Arby’s has added a new Slider to the menu. If you recall (assuming you aren’t a drunk like us!), Arby’s introduced its Sliders last year. We did a review on all of them. Refresh yourself here. The new addition is the Buffalo Chicken Slider. How original! The new sandwich has been added to the menu for a limited time only. This, despite the other Sliders being regularly available. Interesting move, considering the fact…
