It's not really fast food info, but on the news this morning I heard that a hedge fund just purchased the Bennigans franchise rights and are planning on bringing it back "in a big way".
If this results in my having easy access to Monte Cristos once again....well...

Sorry. If I went there after 20 years of not going there. The first thing I'd look for is the Canadian burger to see if it stands up to my memory. The Monte Cristo would have to come at another time.

Another whacky food idea. Oversized bacon, cheese and onion tater tots served with avocado hot sauce. Of course theres malt vinegar on the table if you want it.
This stems from many years ago the Krystal place in our mall being replaced by Boardwalk Fries. They had an item of fries named boardwalk fries. Turned out to be fries with vinegar on them and instead of ketchup you ate mustard on them. I really liked it. So much so that every now and then i still have my fries or tater tots that way.

I discovered the wonder that is Bennigan's Monte Cristo just shortly before they disappeared. Yeah, I didn't get out much and I'm a cheap charlie. I hope they do come back.
And in the same vein Sweet Baby Ray had a wonderful raspberry chipotle bbq sauce that disappeared too.

Lots of people in the US eat fries with mayo. It's just that they mix the mayo with some ketchup and call it fry sauce.

Re: Fast Food Foofaraw
So I tried this and it's actually pretty good:
KFC Gravy Lover's Sandwich
I mean it's way too heavy and salty and needs some veg to cut the richness, but the cutlet's thick AF and was fairly juicy. I don't think they built it right though as the bun was stuck to the contents with cheese so I had to dump the gravy over the top. KFC's gravy is kind of glutch (it may be a little different in Canada), though it did go well with this combination. Based on the pics/articles I've seen online they don't always seem to be made with the same ingredients though. Some have lettuce and regular mayo, while others have some other kind of mayo. I'm not even sure what mine had on it, though there definitely wasn't any lettuce. My KFC is so disorganized they seem to make sandwiches different every time.

We do? I will eat fries with ketchup, with mayo, with mustard, with ranch, with chili, with cheese, with chili and cheese, with au jous, with gravy, with egg yolk, and will even mix mustard and ketchup, but I don't mix mayo with anything. I've never seen mayo ketchup mixture so maybe it's regional in the US? I've also surprisingly never vinegar. That I should try one day.

Russian dressing is mayo + ketchup + horseradish. Thousand Island is mayo + ketchup + relish. Each can be gussied up with other ingredients, but those are the basics.

I don't normally put vinegar on fries, but the exception is malt vinegar. If I'm at a fish & chips place, it's going on my fries.

Re: Fast Food Foofaraw
Not AFAIK. I just meant to point out that mayo + ketchup is a common combo that you've certainly had before, sans fries. Myself, I like yellow mustard on my fries.LordMortis wrote: ↑Sat Nov 12, 2022 2:54 pmDo regions of the US put them on fries? I am not aware of this. Ranch? Yes. Other dressings, never seen.

In the United States
Although sauce composed of a mixture of equal parts ketchup and mayonnaise appears in a New Orleans cookbook published in 1900, fry sauce was popularized in Utah. It may have first appeared there in 1955 at Stan's Drive-In, which was then a franchise of Arctic Circle. Another possible origin for fry sauce was the "pink sauce" served in 1941 at Don Carlos Barbecue in Salt Lake City. In his essay on Utah fry sauce, Michael P. Christensen noted that fry sauce "functions as a cultural identifier for Utahns." The Arctic Circle chain still serves fry sauce in its western United States restaurants.
In April 2018, Heinz announced the release of "Mayochup", a mixture of the two sauces, because 500,000+ users voted "yes" in a Twitter poll asking Americans if they wanted to see it in stores. A number of Twitter users responded that such a mixture already existed as "fry sauce" and "fancy sauce". The sauce arrived at U.S. retailers' shelves in September 2018.
Several fast food chains have individually branded variants of fry sauce using a mayonnaise and ketchup base, including Zaxby's, Raising Cane's, and Freddy's.
The sauce is also closely related to Yum Yum sauce, which is popular in Japanese steakhouses in America.

Re: Fast Food Foofaraw
According to tonights taste test, tater tots are good with french onion dip.
I was unfortunately unable to procure a ham portion that I wanted. So not testing of sauces with ham this month. Maybe next. Those things are expensive. Or at least more than I was thinking.

In the Philippines, they sell Octopus-flavored potato chips that come with a small cup of vinegar in the bag.
I think I fed those to Archinerd once.

Re: Fast Food Foofaraw
The whole snack aisle in the Philippines is based on a dare. How do you feel about squid jerkyfied in BBQ sauce (packaged individually, of course). Or squid freeze dried, shredded, and pressed into crackers that look similar to Triscuits? (I know I fed both of those to Archinerd, who can confirm their existence). Oh, and seaweed flavored Pringles, of course. One thing I had that was surprisingly good was beef and potatoes flavored potato chips. They actually tasted like beef and potatoes.

Re: Fast Food Foofaraw
I'm not even a big fan of seafood in the first place. That has a lot to do with the fact that I haven't grown up in a place where it can be bought fresh. But my Dad on the other hand, who was born in San Fran, loves seafood of all kind.Jeff V wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 10:08 pmThe whole snack aisle in the Philippines is based on a dare.

As for chips, Canada's got quite a fun variety. I remember getting some Old Dutch roasted chicken & stuffing chips and they were amazing. Taste just like the real thing.
