How can it be both 'New' and 'Classic'?

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 24 points 3 weeks ago

The sandwich being described is the same one that chic-fil-a, mcchicken, etc. are based on. The “chicken fried chicken sandwich”. Because in the south “chicken fried” is an adjective that can be applied to multiple meats. That sandwich has been made at roadside dinners and food stands for a century.

But it’s also new to whatever menu this is.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

They can see the future!

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Because it's just showing up on the menu now? Ha! Classic Chicken Sandwich, always showing up late.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The marketing team got a little carried away with the adjectives

NEW! Classic WILD! Chicken Sandwich Plus+ Prime GO Large E X T R E M E SPICY! MAXX

[–] Earthwormjim91@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

New to the restaurant. Classic in that it’s the traditional chicken sandwich. Fried chicken cutlet, pickles, bun.

As opposed to like a buffalo chicken sandwich, or a “deluxe” which gets lettuce, tomato, and mayo added.

A tea spoon of protein powder. Know the burger taste like shit

[–] fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

A teaspoon of oil is 100kcal, more like a sniff of oil.

[–] exasperation@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

A spoonful of hot sauce that is emulsified with a little bit of oil for texture/flavor/viscosity, about 25 calories worth, mixed with basically zero calorie vinegar and spice.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

could add more mayo

Would search what the average calorie content of one dose of ejaculate is before ordering that.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 8 points 3 weeks ago

Seems to be between 5~7 calories, if we assume 5 cooks do it, you can get between 25 and 35 calories, if you are (un)lucky you can get HIV on your burger too

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 27 points 3 weeks ago

(Reaches for the calories jar)

I'm guessing it adds a "Wild" sauce or something

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

Great guess.

This is from the American chain restaurant Buffalo Wild Wings (I'd recognize that menu any day), and they're known for their sauces. "Wild" is a buffalo-style sauce and is their second hottest. And as a half Latino hot pepper enthusiast, I can confirm that it is indeed hot. (Personally I'm a fan of their Mango Habanero sauce.)

From their menu (ignore the blue circles; this was the clearest image I could find): Picture of a menu from Buffalo Wild Wings, showing their list of sauces, arranged from least spicy to most. For the visually impaired: you can find a list on their website, though the website does not sort them by heat level

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Is the 25 calories comprehensive?

If I shit my brains out eating "screamin hot sauce" - is it new calorie negative or positive?

[–] ReluctantMuskrat@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The screaming burns more calories

[–] ReluctantMuskrat@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Mango habernero is indeed the best. Jamming jalapeño is quite tasty too.

There was a short while they switched their Blazin' to a very tasty ghost pepper that was very good despite being super hot but it's back to being hot but not very good.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I went to BDubs the other night just to try Jammin' Jalapeño because of your comment. I see why you like it; it's very similar to Mango Habanero. So similar, in fact, that to me it tastes just like mango habanero, except without the mango. It's not bad but too similar for me. So I think I'll stick with Caribbean Jerk as my second half and half option (or Parm Garlic). But thanks for introducing it to me.

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I trust you're human (like me) but damn did that comment read like AI to me.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

You're absolutely right to be suspicious. 😉 I forget if there's a term for it or not, but I saw a video on a theory that says that AI is changing the way people speak.

FWIW, I very much intended to write the comment to sound like one. In this little social experiment I was testing for two things: 1. To see if speaking in the same patronizing tone an LLM uses actually results in a positive response from people (looks like it did), and 2. To see if anyone would even notice. (I almost got away with it too.)

Congrats on catching on.

"You're correct to assume that it adds a sauce to the item" aah line

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

Hold on there, are you sure you're ready for that?

[–] DreamlandLividity@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Oh, no sir! LOL This is America. That's not 25 calories, that's .25 caliber!

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"Very good sir. Will that be Wild Style or Straight-up Buck Wild?"

Hey it's hand-breaded, someone's gotta pay for that labor.

[–] X@piefed.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Fine, I’ll pay the hands that made it, but I ain’t payin anything to the meat popsicle attached to ‘em.

[–] yoriaiko@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago

Aaaaand gone wild.

[–] wieson@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago

"hand breaded"

[–] Samsy@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago

Good proteins from the bug zapper. Yummy.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

Wild chicken is partridge. Make it a Partridge instead of a chicken? /s

[–] ours@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

ADD chickens have extra calories.
