Damn you Bojangles!!!

OK, if your going to do a .99 cent menu, DO a .99 cent menu, don't give me some sandwich shrunken down for midgets and charge me what McDonald's is charging for a double cheeseburger.

I had to pick up lunch for the family today, and a huge sign on the Bojangles on Elm street caught my attention. It's called the Bojangles's Fueler sandwich. It looked freakin huge on the sign. Like 4 feet across. I'll say that again, the sandwich on the sign was 4 feet. I thought sure, what the heck. So I drop a ten spot in the drive-thru thinking I'll return home and feed the 6 people living with me and fill their bellies till they burst.

WRONG!

This may be the most mis-advertised fast-food-faux-pas ever. (And that may be the most hyphens I've ever used in a sentence.)

Somehow Bojangles has shrunken down their chicken patties to niblets, stuffed it on a round dinner roll the size of a Susan B. Anthony, squirted some mayo and lettuce and called it a sandwich. It is most definitely not a sandwich. Maybe a dog biscuit, or a throat lozenge, but not a sandwich. The worst part is they sell these things for almost a buck. It takes 10 just to fill up one person.

Bojangles... I love ya, but get a real value meal if your going to try and compete. Don't use your shrink-ray on your food and my purse.

I showed up to my softball game yesterday to find out our start time was delayed 1 hour because the tournament was taking longer.

I was a little hungry when I got to the game but playing on an empty stomache is better with all the running and stuff.

Anyway, with the extra hour to kill I needed something small to keep the stomache from grumbling too much. I went over to the Wendy's that was near the ball field to get there $.99 chicken sandwich.

Remember the frozen chicken patties you get at the store and nuke them for about a minute? Well if you can't find them anymore and desire to have some, you're in luck. That's exactly what Wendy's is offering now. Decent sized sandwich but tastes like the freezer burnt cardboard of the good 'ole days.
