242. KFC KWENCH: Shakes, Lemonades, Lattes, and Refreshers! (REVIEW)

Disclaimer: KFC Canada sent us free samples of their new KWENCH drinks to review on the show, but this is NOT a paid sponsorship!

This week, hosts Tom Zalatnai (@tomzalatnai) and Teffer Adjemian (@tefferbear) give their honest review of KFC’s new KWENCH drink menu! We talk about their new Caramel Iced Lattes, Chocolate Krunch Shakes, Strawberry Boba Refreshers, and Raspberry Lemonade, and some of the marketing ideas behind this new initiative. What works well, what falls short, and why does every fast food chain need its own fancy drinks these days anyway? Plus, Tom gives a quick bonus review of Subway Canada’s summerlong ‘SubDog’ promotion. Then, we put caviar, corn, and Doritos into the Random Meal Generator and create a deeply cursed amuse-bouche to pair with our favorite KWENCH drink!
