FAST FOOD NEWS: Taco Bell Sriracha Quesarito and Snapple Lemonade Freeze

/ / Fast Food News / 12 Comments

Taco Bell Sriracha Quesarito

Update: We reviewed it! Click here for our Taco Bell Sriracha Quesarito review.

Taco Bell is the latest company to join the sriracha craze that has been going on for the past two years. Their contribution is the Sriracha Quesarito. It’s a burrito that’s stuffed with seasoned beef, Latin rice, Taco Bell’s own sriracha sauce, and reduced-fat sour cream, and then that’s wrapped up in a grilled quesadilla with melted cheese and more sriracha sauce.

The Sriracha Quesarito has 650 calories, 32 grams of fat, 12 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 55 milligrams of cholesterol, 1720 milligrams of sodium, 68 grams of carbohydrates, 6 grams of fiber, 7 grams of sugar, and 22 grams of protein.

Taco Bell Snapple Lemonade Freeze

If the sriracha burns your mouth and you need something to cool it down, Taco Bell is also now offering the Snapple Lemonade Freeze. The tart, tangy, and sweet slush is available in two sizes — 16 and 20 ounces. It has 240 calories, 0 grams of fat, 70 milligrams of sodium, 59 grams of carbohydrates, and 59 grams of sugar.

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

Flavored crust fish fight! Who will win? Gorton’s or Van de Kamp’s? Does knowing the Van de Kamp’s line also includes Parmesan & Roasted Garlic Tilapia and Mediterranean Tilapia Flavor Crusted Fillets change your mind? Does anyone care? (Spotted by Amanda at Walmart.)

Yup. When I think of spring, I think of strawberry patch, pineapple punch, sunny citrus, and cherry kiwi splash too. It’s as if Starburst is reading my mind. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

FAST FOOD NEWS: Arby’s Turkey Rachel

/ / Fast Food News / 7 Comments

Arby s Turkey Rachel

Before today, the only Rachels I knew of were characters on TV named Rachel (Rachel in Friends and Rachel in Glee) and The Rachel hairstyle. But today I learned about the Rachel sandwich. Thanks, Arby’s!

Arby’s Turkey Rachel features roast turkey, swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing, Swiss cheese, and Arby’s housemade coleslaw on marble rye bread. The housemade coleslaw is made with shredded cabbage and carrots in a creamy dressing. The sandwich is a variation of the Reuben sandwich, which has corned beef and sauerkraut instead of roast turkey and coleslaw.

You can also order Arby’s Turkey Rachel with twice the turkey. It and Arby’s Reuben are available for a limited time.

A Turkey Rachel has 720 calories, 33 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 85 milligrams of cholesterol, 1850 milligrams of sodium, 66 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, 11 grams of sugar, and 40 grams of protein.

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