Do you know about the secret menu?



Some places have a few "secret" menu items that can be ordered ... if you know what to ask for: Here is the list of secret items you can order. I think I'm gonna try it this weekend! :)

1. McDonald's -- Order a McKinley Mac and you'll get a big Mac with quarter-pounder patties.

2. Burger King -- If you dare, try ordering a Suicide Burger, which includes four meat patties, four slices of cheese, bacon and special sauce.

* Mustard Whopper - This is a normal Whopper with one difference, mustard is spread onto the sandwich instead of mayo.

* Veggie Whopper - A great alternative for vegetarians who love the flavor of Burger King, the beef is substituted for with a veggie patty.

* BLT - A bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich that comes in either a small or medium size.

* Ham and Cheese - A classic sandwich option that you can have served either hot or cold.

*Frings - An order of frings will split your French fry order with onion rings.

*Rodeo Burger - A burger assembled with onion rings and bbq sauce on it.

*BK Club - This sandwich is the Original chicken sandwich with bacon, tomato, and cheese.

3. Long John Silver's -- Ask for a Side of Crumbs and you supposedly get a (free!) box of fried batter parts that have fallen off the fried fish or chicken. Great to put on top of salads -- or just clog your arteries.

4.Dairy Queen- Ask for a Chocolate Chip Blizzard - This blizzard sounds like your basic chocolate chip ice cream, but its not. It is made with quick to harden chocolate usually used on the dipping cones.

*Banana Split Blizzard - All your basic banana split flavors blended together into a blizzard.

*Jack and Jill Sundae - A classic sundae with marshmallow and hot fudge.

*Lavender Blue Sundae - This is a blueberry sundae with marshmallow.

*Frozen Hot Chocolate - In some places this is still on the menu seasonally, but basically it is hot chocolate blended with ice to give it a frozen crunch.

*Peanut Buster Parfait - This is a multi level sundae combining fudge, vanilla soft serve, and peanuts.

5. Arby's -- Order the Wet Fries, which are smothered in cheese sauce.

6. Sonic

*Frito Pie - This is a southern favorite with layers of chili and fritos.
*Grilled Ham and Cheese - This is your basic warm gooey ham and cheese sandwich.

7. Starbucks – With the large variety of different Starbucks franchises it is important to know what’s in any hidden menu drink you order. Many should know these options however, since they are not all the same just remember the ingredients in case they do not know and they will be happy to make the drink for you.
*Biscotti Frapuccino - This is a typical frapuccino but it has a biscotti blended inside. You will have to purchase the biscotti separate when you are checking out, but you can have it in any flavor frap.

*Short Drink - This is a less expensive version of any Starbucks drink. It is smaller than a tall with a lower price.
* Red Eye - This is a shot of espresso in regular drip coffee.
* Black Eye - This drink has 2 shots of espresso in regular drip coffee.
* Green Eye - This drink includes 3 shots of espresso in regular drip coffee.
*Poor Mans Latte - We recommend you do not tell your Barista you are planning on creating this drink when you order. Order an iced Americano with no water and half ice, then use the free milk on the side to mix it up to your standards.

*Poor Mans Chai Latte - Same recommendation as above applies here. Order a Chai Tea Misto with extra foam, two tea bags, and half cinnamon and half vanilla syrup.

*French Pressed Coffee - If you want coffee served fresh from a French press you may have it with any variety in the shop.

*Chocolate Cream Frapuccino - This is a frapuccino made with chocolate syrup and chocolate frapuccino base.

*Cake Batter Frap - Order a vanilla frappucino and ask for both the vanilla bean and almond flavorings. It will taste just like cake batter.

*Crunchberry Frap - Flavored like the crunchberry cereal, this is a strawberrys and cream frappucino with hazelnut flavoring.

*Strawberry Blended Lemonade - Although this had been taken off the menu, most locations will still blend the strawberry flavoring with lemonade for you.

*London Fog - This is made with vanilla flavoring in Earl Gray Tea.

*Zebra Mocha (also called a Tuxedo or Penguin Mocha) - This is a mix of the white chocolate and regular chocolate mochas.

*Red Tux Mocha (also called Bleeding Penguin) - The same mix of white chocolate and regular chocolate mocha with raspberry flavoring.

Happy Eating & Drinking! :)
