We took a BIG vacation from being behind our mics, but we are back! And since we know how much you love our Small Bites bonus episodes, we decided to get back into the show with a list of items that hit fast food menus over the Summer and do a BIG bites to share our thoughts along with plenty of laughs!

Last week Taco Bell held their first Live Más LIVE event in Irvine, CA, giving us a preview of the restaurant chain's marketing calendar, announcing new menu items, ingredients and sauces that are sure to fill plenty of cravings in 2024. We absolutely needed to discuss this breaking news and share it with you, so we jumped on a virtual call to tell you all about it. Listen as we describe details about the menu, our thoughts on each item, and what we look forward to trying most throughout the year!

We share our experience at Outback Steakhouse on our special friend date and then Danielle opens a surprise gift before we chat about indulging in Paczki (a Fat Tuesday classic in the metro-Detroit area... YUM!) as well as our take on which Downtown Detroit coney island (American or Lafayette) we prefer. Then, we share what we are giving up for lent!

Ahead of the big game this weekend, we do a live chicken wing taste challenge with surprise flavors from two micro-establishments, Buffalo Wild Wings GO and Hoots by Hooters, to determine which we like better! Then, Danielle catches us up on her hours long wait to buy some very nostalgic burritos and a trip to Olive Garden with her family.
