After yesterday’s post about Little Caesars’ Big Burger Deep! Deep! Dish Pizza with sesame seeds sprinkled on top, this new stuffed crust version of their Deep! Deep! Dish Pizza seems less exciting.

The Stuffed Crust Deep! Deep! Dish Pizza is an 8-corner deep dish pizza with a unique, crisp-on-the-bottom crust that’s stuffed with gooey cheese. It’s topped with even more cheese and pepperoni. The limited time offering has over 75 percent more cheese than a regular Deep! Deep! Dish Pizza.

For those of keeping track at home, and I imagine that’s five of you, this isn’t the first Little Caesars Stuffed Crust Pizza. The company offered one a few years ago.

A large pepperoni Stuffed Crust Deep! Deep! Dish Pizza is available for $10 at participating locations.

Little Caesars is testing a cheeseburger pizza and I’m disappointed that, even though the pizza chain has the ability to stick strips of bacon to their Detroit-style deep dish pizza, it’s not a bacon cheeseburger pizza.

Impulsive Buy reader Rik sent us this screenshot of a TV commercial that’s been playing in the Reno area for a few weeks. According to Rik, the commercial says the pizza features “special sauce, seasoned beef and onions, topped with melted American, mozzarella, and Muenster cheeses then finished with diced dill pickles plus a sprinkling of sesame seeds.”

For years, Starbucks locations in Japan have offered a cherry blossom Frappuccino. In Japan, cherry blossoms (or sakura) are the national flower and are celebrated during this time of year.

This year, Starbucks locations in the U.S. are offering the Cherry Blossom Frappuccino. The blended beverage features strawberries and cream with white chocolate sauce and matcha drizzle. It’s topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of matcha.

Starbucks’ Cherry Blossom Frappuccino will be available at participating U.S. locations for a very limited time until the first day of spring on Sunday, March 20.

Last year, Wendy’s jumped on the sriracha train when the chain offered a creamy sriracha dipping sauce for their chicken nuggets. Now the company is testing a couple of new products featuring the spicy sauce — the Spicy Sriracha Chicken and Bacon Sriracha Fries

The drive-thru photo above comes from Impulsive Buy reader Brian, who took this photo at a Wendy’s location in Alliance, Ohio.

According to Brian, the chicken sandwich features a spicy chicken filet, bacon, red onion, spring mix, pepper jack cheese, creamy sriracha sauce, and a bun that seems similar to the red jalapeño one that came with Wendy’s Jalapeño Fresco Chicken Sandwich. The sandwich has a price of $5.19. The Bacon Sriracha Fries appear to be topped with bacon, cheese sauce, and, of course, creamy sriracha sauce.

If you’ve tried either one, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
