Nestle Toll House Fall n Leaves Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

With the autumn leaf sprinkles, these cookies look like the ground of a dog park where no one picks up their dog’s poop during the fall. (Spotted by Bob K at Walmart.)

This should not be confused with Chobani Flip Pumpkin Harvest Crisp that had pumpkin low-fat Greek yogurt, with pie crust pieces, glazed pumpkin seeds, and pecans. (Spotted by Rachel C at Walmart.)

FAST FOOD NEWS: KFC Beyond Fried Chicken

/ / Fast Food News / 3 Comments

News KFC Beyond Fried Chicken

Update: The location sold out within hours.

KFC is now testing a plant-based chicken called Beyond Fried Chicken. As you can guess by its name, it’s partnering with Beyond Meat, who has provided the plant-based protein for Carl’s Jr.’s Beyond Famous Star and Del Tacos’ Beyond Tacos.

Beyond Fried Chicken is available in nuggets with your choice of dipping sauce or boneless wings tossed in one of three sauce options: Nashville Hot, Buffalo, or Honey BBQ. The nuggets are available in six or 12-piece combo meals (which include a side and medium drink) for $6.49 and $8.49, or four-piece à la carte for $1.99. Boneless wings available in six or 12-piece options for $6 and $12, respectively.

Sadly, KFC’s BFC is being tested at one location — the Cobb Parkway restaurant near SunTrust Park in Atlanta (2637 Cobb Pkwy South East, Smyrna, GA).

REVIEW: Dunkin’ Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte

/ / Reviews / 1 Comment

Dunkin Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte

What is the Dunkin’ Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte?

Well, if you’re not quite ready to jump Ugg first into Pumpkin Spice Season, Dunkin’ has a tweak on the old recipe that basically tastes like pumpkin spice!

How is it?

Ok, in fairness, “Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin” is probably better than that boring glory hog pumpkin spice.

I’m not positive what Dunkin’s recipe is, but a quick search indicates that cinnamon is usually the predominant spice used in pumpkin spice. I don’t think that’s new information to anyone with taste buds, but this latte seems like someone screwed up the pumpkin spice recipe and a happy accident occurred.

Test Kitchen chef, Ralph (I’m naming him Ralph), accidentally threw double the cinnamon in a pumpkin spice batch and Dunkin’ decided it tasted good enough to make the menu.

Cinnamon sugar is delicious, so why wouldn’t you want more of that in your coffee?

Is there anything else you need to know?

Despite an abundance of cinnamon sugar, it wasn’t as sweet as expected. Maybe I lucked out with a good batch, but I expected this to be cloying and over the top. The inclusion of more cinnamon helped mellow out the pumpkin flavor that Dunkin’ sometimes ramps up to ten.

Dunkin Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte Topping

The whipped cream sprinkled with cinnamon was a nice touch, but eat it first, or it will sink to the ice cubes. Whipped topping is definitely better suited for blended drinks.

I’m an iced coffee guy, but I have no doubt this will be a perfect hot coffee flavor too. I’m gonna try that on the first truly cold September morning.

Conclusion:

Dunkin Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte Fun in the Sun

Despite the “fun in the sun” cup, this was the first moment I really felt like fall – or “autumn” for you pretentious readers – was about to smack me in the face.

If this drink proves anything, it’s that pumpkin and cinnamon are a winning combo. We might not even need all those other spices. Thanks, Ralph!
