Wendy’s Spicy Chicken Guacamole Club

It’s a pretty good sandwich. It’s the basic spicy chicken sandwich with guacamole, bacon, and pepper jack cheese. What I did not realize until I opened the wrapper, is that it also includes mayo. I would think that the guacamole is a mayo substitute, making the may unnecessary. It would be much better sans mayo and now that I realize that it includes mayo, I will make sure to request no mayo in the future.

First Beers To You Podcast of March, 2012

Another Beers To You Podcast, for your listening pleasure. I phoned in and gave a brief report on my trip to Danville, KY, home of Centre College, which was formerly in a dry county, but now has a pretty nice brew pub; Rob bitches and moans about beer names; Fleming finally gets credit for the term “extended cab”; and Rich eats cheese on the air. Listen here.

Martha Stewart on The Today Show to Discuss Beer and Food

As I was brushing my teeth this morning, I heard Matt Lauer say that Martha Stewart was on now to discuss having a beer and food pairing party. So, I kind of paid attention as I was finishing with my morning grooming. She talked about some appetizers that sounded delicious and demonstrated how to make them, which did not bother me because the beer is already made, but the food is something you would need to actually prepare. The problem was that she said nothing about beer. Now, I know that Martha is not some beer expert, so I did not expect some in depth description of any beer, but I did expect something along the lines of “here is X beer, it’s kind of bitter but has citrusy flavor that would go really well with these shrimp I’m going to show you how to make” or “this beer is dark and kind of sweet, it would go with (insert food item here).” There was none of that. There were some glasses of beer (with no indication of what beer was in the glass) out on the table, and that’s it.
