Who still eats at these chains nowadays? The quality of the food is absolute garbage for the money now.

Chick-nobyl! 5000 wings, 10,000 beaks, a pallet of dipping sauces, airdropped ranch and two of the sickest, saddest celery sticks you've ever seen!

Look.

I love espresso martinis and I love wings

I don't even think as separate entities they go together

This is an abomination

I don't know if this particular iteration of this is good, but I can see at least the start of a good idea here

I don't know exactly what's in their wing rub, but I'll bet it's probably along the lines of salt, pepper, chili powder of some kind (probably cayenne,) garlic & onion powder

Coffee has a fairly similar flavor profile to dark chocolate

Chocolate and chili peppers is a pretty classic combination, think along the lines of a Mexican hot chocolate

And salt also goes well with chocolate, and a tiny pinch of salt is a common hack to cut the bitterness of coffee.

The garlic/onion powder and any other herbs/spices in there are kind of the oddballs, they're definitely going to pull things more towards the savory end of the spectrum, but things like coffee-rubbed steaks are a thing, and sweet & savory combinations are a thing, so I'm not immediately horrified by that concept.

Again, don't know if this particular version is good, but I think someone somewhere out there could probably make a good version of this idea.

pureeing random shit and separating it out in a explody-spinny-thing lets you extract flavors without getting all the solids.

I'm not sure I would trust BWW with a giant lab grade centrifuge though. that seems like a recipe for world-ending consequences.

Sounds like it'll go great with that ranch dressing milkshake

That's it. Capitalism has gone too far!

[–] artifex@piefed.social 6 points 15 hours ago

We can only hope that supply outpaces demand.

[–] username_1@programming.dev 2 points 15 hours ago

Let it go. Even farther and don't come back...

Ah, yes, the ol' puke+diarrhea multi-flavor banger, and chock fulla mystery texture.

Genius. 😬

No thank you. I only drink vegan gin.

Failing Buffalo Wild Wings gets free publicity by pulling viral stunt!

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Contrary to the popular saying, not all publicity is good publicity.

This is not only a keto thing, I've heard that doctors who prescribe ozempic recommend to take protein supplements.
