FAST FOOD NEWS: Krispy Kreme Trick-or-Treat Doughnut

KKTOTD

Krispy Kreme’s newest limited-time-only treat is the Trick-or-Treat Doughnut. Well, actually, there are two new doughnuts from the chain, but the second one isn’t interesting and I had second thoughts about even mentioning it.

But, if you’re interested, the other is the Monster Batter Doughnut that features cake batter flavored filling dipped in green icing and topped with monster eyes and confetti. It’s just a holiday-appropriate version of the chain’s Cake Batter Doughnut.

But back to the more interesting one of the two…

The Trick-or-Treat Doughnut is an Original Glazed doughnut dipped in and drizzled with salted caramel icing and topped with pieces of three iconic candies — Snickers, Twix, and M&M’s Minis.

Both doughnuts are available from now until October 31 at participating U.S. locations. Also, if you show up at a participating location in a costume on October 31, you can get a free doughnut of your choice.

The Trick-or-Treat Doughnut has 370 calories, 16 grams of fat, 8 grams of saturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 200 milligrams of sodium, 53 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, 36 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of protein.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Wendy’s S’Awesome Bacon Classic

S Awesome Wendys

This time last year, Wendy’s rolled out a new dipping sauce to go with its revamped chicken tenders. That sauce, a Side of S’Awesome, is now a condiment on Wendy’s newest burger.

Wendy’s S’Awesome Bacon Classic comes with a 1/4 lb. beef patty, three strips of Applewood-smoked bacon, American cheese, lettuce, onion, pickles, and, of course, a slathering of Side of S’Awesome on a toasted bun.

If your taste buds have not experienced the sauce, according to Wendy’s it “…blends the creaminess of ranch dressing and the smoky components of barbeque, plus a lick of hot sauce, a hint of honey mustard and a dash of Worcestershire–creating a deliciously different sauce found only at Wendy’s.”

The burger is available for a limited time at $4.99 at participating locations.

An S’Awesome Bacon Classic Single has 640 calories, 40 grams of fat, 15 grams of saturated fat, 1.5 grams of trans fat, 115 milligrams of cholesterol, 1390 milligrams of sodium, 40 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, 8 grams of sugar, and 34 grams of protein.
