McDonald's New Chicken Crispy or Grilled McWraps

These new wraps are meal size unlike the already available wraps which are snack size.

For awhile these new wraps were only $1 with the price of a drink, which is only $1.

You pull and tear this tab and then you can stand it up and eat it right out of the package.  Very convenient.

The sauce is a creamy garlic spread, ranch, or a spicy chili flavor.  

You can choose crispy or grilled chicken, with bacon or ranch.

These are tasty and filling and interesting.  They get my approval.  Healthier than a greasy burger and much tastier.  A nice and welcome change.

Burger King Donut Holes

Burger King is following Wendy's and other fast food restaurants by revamping its menu and offering new things.  Turkey burgers, veggie burgers, new Whoppers, chicken nuggets, and now the holes of donuts.  They were good, not to sweet, fluffy, almost like a slightly glazed mini roll.  They stuck to the packaged as you can see by the picture so a fork, provided, is necessary.  I probably wouldn't have them again unless I had a coupon or they were cheaper due to a promotion or something.

Burger King Chicken Nuggets

McDonald's, excuse me, Burger King has released Chicken McNuggets, excuse me, Chicken Nuggets.  They are tasty, but they are almost completely identical to the McDonald's version.  Even down to giving only two sauces, any more are extra.  Previously, when I have ordered chicken strips or chicken fingers they gave me all the sauces I've wanted, but now they are copying McDonald's policy of only giving 2 packets for 10 pieces of nugget.  They are all white meat as are McDonald's now.  They are very tasty and sure to be a hit.  But then I like McDonald's whereas most people I know who prefer Burger King might not like them so who knows?  Try them!

Limited Edition Oreo Mega Stuf

These are yet another entry in the Oreo family.  Oreo now has brownies, chocolate covered cookies, and multiple versions of its stuffing inside two cookies.  This version, Mega Stuf, is for those that love the stuffing better than the cookie.  It is simply double stuffed with a single stuff on top.  It's good, but I think I prefer double stuffed.  If you are a cookie person they have some with regular stuffing and three cookies.  

Kentucky Fried Chicken Original Recipe Bites

These new boneless original recipe KFC bites are 6 for $3.99.  This probably will change as this price is a promotion to push this new product.  You can choose a dipping sauce but it comes with a little dish of gravy that seems slightly different than the gravy for the mashed potatoes.  It's a lighter color.  Here is what it really looks like:

These new bites are very tasty but not filling.  6 pieces is simply a snack, not a meal.  With the gravy they are not too healthy.  Stick with the grilled chicken.  If these were served over a salad it would be more filling. If I go to KFC I usually go all the way and get extra crispy chicken.  More chicken, more breading.  These are simply a tasty snack.  Worth a try.  Unlike eating 2 or 3 of the bigger pieces of chicken, these don't give me a headache.  

Pho Rice King Noodle House

TASTE

PRICE

APPEARANCE

Pho (pronounced fuh) is a Vietnamese soup that cooks and simmers at high heat and when meat is added then the noodles it is cooked to perfection and full flavor.  Rice King Noodle House is located in downtown Provo, Utah on University Avenue and cooks up a great dish of Pho.  Pictured is beef pho.  The chicken pho is also delicious and the tripe is tasty as well.  There are many other combinations with meat and vegetables.  The bowl is huge and very filling.  Most people don't finish the whole bowl.  Sauces are provided to mix in the pho and in a dish to dip the meat in.  The meat is flavorful and doesn't require sauce but is even more delicious with the sauce.  To get the authentic experience try eating with chopsticks for the meat, noodles, and vegetables and the ladle type spoon for the broth.  The  price is $8.03 including tax, which might seem pricey for just soup but remember this will fill you up.  Many Asian places offer Pho but in the Provo - Orem area the Rice King Noodle House does it best.

Taco Bell Nachos Supreme

Taco Bell's Nachos Supreme cost around $3, it really depends on your location and if there is a deal going.  Sometimes these go for 99 cents.  This is what mine looked liked:

These nachos are pretty tasty but not at all healthy.  The cheese sauce is perfect and I eliminated the sour cream.  It would have been better if I also took off the refried beans but these are personal choices. The Bell Grande version is the same stuff but larger.  Tomatoes, which are included,  give it an even better taste.  I usually prefer shredded cheese nachos but Taco Bell has a great tasting cheese sauce.  Taking out the sour cream and refried beans will make this unhealthy snack somewhat more healthy.  The supreme version is for one person while the Belle Grande version is for sharing.
