Fast Food 

​Taste Test: The KFC 'Cheeto Sandwich'
When I heard about the KFC Cheeto sandwich, I admit I was intrigued. I generally indulge in some good old fast food before any of my appearances in 990WBOB - being partial to the New York System and Burger King. So, this gave me a chance to expend my horizons a little bit, and try to think outside the box.

The Chicken Sandwich Craze

​Taste Test: The Burger King Chicken Caesar Salad Sandwich
Yes, Burger King has came out with a new salad, well a salad on a sandwich. The chicken caesar salad sandwich is new to their menu, and it sounds healthy enough for me. It’s called a salad, after all.

Beer

Utilizing low temps they were able to eliminate all volatile aromatics and extract only the juicy flavors of the hops and create a nutrient rich environment for their yeast to work, giving us a full rich body, high hop flavor beer that you can't help but enjoy! ​

Taste Test: “Be Fruitful and Multiply” – Smug Brewing’s Sour Series
​Smug Brewing, on Carver Street in Pawtucket, has a variety of tasty brews that can be enjoyed or taken home in growlers and cans form their spacious tasting room. ​To me, the pick of the litter is the ‘Be Fruitful and Multiply’ series; namely their sour offering. I’ve traditionally been a porter and stout guy throughout my life, and wasn’t really too much into sours – until I met and fell in love with this beauty.
