Arby s Brisket Bacon Flatbread

Arby’s has three new limited time offers — the Brisket Bacon Flatbread, Spicy Jalapeño Brisket, and Brisketcake Shake. No wait. There was so much brisket that I got confused. The last item is a Pumpkin Cheesecake Shake.

The sandwich has 680 calories, 36 grams of fat, 12 grams of saturated fat, 1 gram of trans fat, 1490 milligrams of sodium, 49 grams of carbohydrates, and 41 grams of protein.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Sonic Garlic Parmesan, Honey BBQ, Island Fire, and Extreme Habanero Heat Boneless Wings

Sonic Extreme Habanero Heat Boneless Wings

About this time last year, Sonic introduced their Boneless Chicken Wings. The crispy 100 percent all white meat chicken wings are back again this year, for a limited time, but now there are more sauces to choose from.

Buffalo and Asian Sweet Chili are making a return, but barbecue has been replaced with Honey BBQ, which is made of brown sugar, honey, and chipotle pepper. Joining those three sauces are Garlic Parmesan, Island Fire, and Extreme Habanero Heat. If the sweet and spicy Island Fire sounds familiar, it was originally on Sonic’s Island Fire Spicy Chicken Sandwich from 2013.

All Sonic Boneless Wing flavors are available in packs of six, 12, or 24. Those who order a 12- or 24-pack have the option to mix or match two sauces.

Six pieces of the Garlic Parmesan Boneless Wings have 740 calories, 51 grams of fat, 9 grams of saturated fat, 1530 milligrams of sodium, and 30 grams of protein. A six-piece serving of the Honey BBQ has 510 calories, 21 grams of fat, 4 grams of saturated fat, 1500 milligrams of sodium, and 28 grams of protein. Six pieces of the Island Fire Boneless Wings have 540 calories, 21 grams of fat, 4 grams of saturated fat, 1090 milligrams of sodium, and 29 grams of protein. A six-piece serving of the Extreme Habanero Heat has 580 calories, 33 grams of fat, 6 grams of saturated fat, 2600 milligrams of sodium, and 30 grams of protein.
