Food roundup for january 22

Here’s what was being written about today in the world of food and dining news:

• Clean Plate Charlie gets things started with news that Burger King’s new Whopper Bar is going to begin serving beer. Yup, because lack of beer is what’s keeping us from hanging out at Burger King.

Now with beer.

​

• Fat City’s Johnathan Bender provides some pointers for coping with a long wait for your food. Hint: It doesn’t involve throwing a temper tantrum.

• Eating Our Words responds to the most useless kitchen appliances list with a counterpoint defending the 10 most useful kitchen appliances (that people still make fun of).

• And lastly, Stick a Fork In It pits the current Pepsi against Pepsi Throwback in a no holds barred taste challenge. Two drinks enter, two drinks leave.
