They need to make a DQ ice cream cake that is like 60-70% just that fudgey layer with the choco chunks. That's the best part. The rest is just regular ice cream. I'm an efficiency, bang-for-your-buck kind of man, damnit!
i had a friend in high school that worked at dairy queen. one day at lunch he surprised us by bringing in JUST the cookie layer of the ice cream cake. back when they used to assemble the ice cream cakes in the house. it was amazing.

Holy fuck. Holy sweet fuckety fuck. My brother has Celiac's so he can't eat gluten (the real one, not the fake one) so my parents got a tray of "Seafoam" chocolates from Savory (I guess?) because they're gluten free. Dudes. These things are fucking amazing. Imagine a thick chocolate coating, and inside is like if a butterfinger had a mini-explosion and had air gaps. They're fucking great.

McNuggets are hurt, man. That's harsh. You don't judge a man by his colour, how can you judge a nugget by its sauce?
The only redeeming thing about McNuggets are the delightful dipping sauces, especially sweet and sour, which should be bottled and sold in every grocery store in the world.

Yeah, I'm not a real fan of McNuggets either. They are "ok" as long as they are cooked perfectly and fresh, but if I have to eat McDonald's, it's pretty low on my list of things I'd order.

I used to work with a guy who no joke ate McNuggets 3 times a week. Always with the shitty smelling BBQ sauce. He was enormous, obv.

Just write "obviously." You just wrote "enormous," so clearly it's not an issue with writing a long word. It's a stupid fucking abbreviation.

You've lost your control over this thread so I'm not going to follow your orders. This thread is in full mutiny.

Keep an eye out for a Crunchie bar. They're available in some areas of the US.

Chicken McNuggets were a go to for me at McDonald's until they got rid of the Hot Mustard sauce. McNuggets can fuck right off as far as I'm concerned now.
I don't go often but I thought I'd heard that was only gone for a year or so and its back now?

If its not back, I agree with rioting. Hot Mustard or death!

Twix farmed out some of it's production to Brazil and they use a slightly different formula

I haven't tried McNuggets in a while. Back in the day they were always pretty good, unless they got too old in the warming drawer and got hard. I still have fond memories of my store manager showing me his method of 'testing' if the nuggets were fresh: grab nugget, grab slice of cheese off of the dress table, wrap cheese around nugget, eat. I wasn't a huge fan of them like that, but I would occasionally sneak one to try and pop into my mouth plain. I'd be back in the grill area going "mmmble mrrble mromble".

I'm willing to bet that of all the things that have changed with McDonalds, the nuggets may have changed the least (or not at all). Maybe I'm wrong, I dunno.

McDonalds used to be so much better though. Chicken Fajitas, from-scratch biscuits, prob more stuff that I can't remember right now

Faith restored.

I found their recipe from their official corporate recipe guide for that sweet n sour. I tried to make it, but I couldn't quite get it sweet enough. It did make a great regular sweet n sour sauce for stir fry though.

you're thinking of the PB twix that is farmed out to Brazil and imported to US. the triple chocolate twix is also produced by brazil and sold there. (it has appeared in the US on occasion)

A link to said Savory candies would be appreciated.
I know the brand is "Savory Foods" in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Looking them up it looks like they're a fundraiser supplier type business. As in, you buy 100 of their shit at a discount and sell those door to door for a small profit.

Profitable - Savory Foods

I have no idea where to buy them other than their fund raising bullshit. The box we have is a clear plastic thing with 4 types: white chocolate, peanut butter, chocolate, and dark chocolate.
