![]() ![]() Why Your Girl Scout Cookie Order Might Look Different This Yearĭoesn’t it feel like it’s been a while since you were offered a little menu of bun choices from which to select?

Only customers in Huntsville, Alabama and Albuquerque, New Mexico will be able to try them for now, but as with any test run, early success could mean the rest of us get to taste it for ourselves soon after.Ĭoca-Cola Starlight Tastes Like One Big Marketing Ploy Starting September 12, Burger King will debut a new brioche bun coated in everything bagel seasoning, which can be subbed in for a normal bun when you order a Whopper, Royal Crispy Chicken Sandwich (replacement for the Ch’King), or Breakfast Sandwich. And it sounds like Burger King is kinda, sorta bringing it back. White? Wheat? Pretzel? Potato? Ciabatta? I miss that kind of selection. But it was also the era of the big honking dinner burger, for which diners were always given a choice of three to five different bun options. Just as sun-dried tomatoes are a great shorthand for ’90s-era cuisine, the mid-aughts brought us things like short rib flatbread pizzas and baconified everything. We like to poke fun at the mid-2000s gastropub dining scene, partially because its offerings feel so fresh in our minds, yet so far from current trends. ![]()
