Tuesday was reportedly the hottest day on Earth, ever — or, for at least as long as humans have been here; obviously when the atmosphere was mostly methane and blue-green algae were busily converting it to oxygen so the rest of us could evolve, it was hotter.
At any rate, it’s a hot summer and chains have our backs by rolling out a bunch of drinks.
There are new lemonades from Golden Corral, Hot Dog on a Stick, Tim Hortons, and White Rhino Coffee, frozen soft drinks from The Human Bean, iced ones from Black Rock Coffee Bar and Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que, and boozy ones from Cheba Hut, Guzman y Gomez, and Shuckin’ Shack.
Long John Silver’s has new waffle fries, Sizzler has a new burger, and Jimmy John’s has new wraps and its first pita chips.
Fatburger has fried chicken strips, Big Chicken has a new sandwich, and TooJay’s Deli has a sandwich served on a knish.
Honeygrow has new salads, Kyuramen has seafood skewers, and Velvet Taco’s Weekly Taco Feature is inspired by lasagna.
