Do you have a favorite wrestling gimmick? What's your food based wrestling gimmick?

How thick of a noodle is too thick of a noodle? We've been enjoying a local restaurant's hand pulled noodles lately that are exceptionally thick and chewy, probably the circumference of a milkshake straw (but not hollow). We think we would enjoy them if they were even thicker as well, but not sure at what point it becomes too thick. So, the question is, how thick do you think a noodle could be before it's no longer enjoyable? Ps. Recently moved to North Carolina. While talking with new friends about podcasts, I recommended Dough Boys, and suggested the Cook Out episode since that's a popular chain here. Forgot that in that episode you talk about "dog cum milkshakes" for quite a while. Haven't heard from those new potential friends since then.

This isn't really a question, but we need a rematch shrimp-off with Applebee's endless wings deal. The Boys haven't been on in too long!

Burger King is being sued by someone who says the Whopper is too small and doesn’t deliver on the picture on the menu. What is the least accurate depiction of a chain restaurant item you’ve seen? Or, alternatively, what is the least accurate name for a menu item, e.g. the Big Mac is actually kinda small, relatively speaking

Stevie Rea

I once drove past a road in Middle Tennessee called McCool Drive. I have wondered ever since what new item at McDonald’s should be the McCool…. I think a frozen/ice cream is too obvious. It’s the McCool. This the dinner of cool kids everywhere. Follow up, what does the new McCool character look like? Is it just Ronald with sunglasses? Or maybe the return of the sexy Hamburglar?

Brooke Atkinson

If we were to turn the tables, what kinds of questions would you wish we would ask you?

Do a value menu theme month. If not for Munch Madness, then how about Buckdoughberfest: A month long assessment and appreciation of the value menu?

Patrick Smith

if you were to create a restaurant centered around 1 ingredient (it has to be in all the dishes on the menu, even dessert), what food would you choose and what would you call the restaurant?

A Nicole

When I was a kid we would take McDonald’s soda cups to the nearby playground and sit on them as we went down the slides. The wax from the cups would remain on the slides and increase the slipperiness & speed of the slides considerably. Have you ever up-cycled a restaurant item for something outside of its intended use?

Hello Doughboys, who would play who in your favorite TV Shows? For example, Yusong as George Emma as Elaine Wiger as Seinfeld Mitch as Kramer and Amelia as Newman How about Cheers? The Office? The Muppet Show? South Park? The Simpsons? Family Matters? Saved by The Bell? The Sopranos?

barfwalton

I decided to take improv classes after being unhappy with my life for too long. Any tips before my first class?

Christopher Bernardi

There seems to be a trend lately in the NYC cocktail scene to make more savory drinks. For instance, the #1 bar, Double Chicken Please, has drinks like “Cold Pizza” which includes ingredients like Parmesan, tomato, and basil. So my question is, which fast food item do you think would make the best upscale cocktail?

Tiffany Ishihara

What’s it gonna take to get Wiger across the ocean and visit a foreign country? Crowdfund?! Charity donation?! What?!

Rob Roan

Dear Doughboys: I took your advice from the Biggie Feedback XLVIIII and I successfully proposed to my partner by popping the question by the water eating a Bánh mì!! Now, we are planning our wedding! What are your dos and don'ts when it comes to food at a wedding?

Do they know of any Australian chains they’d want to try if they came to Australia?

Joshua Ochoa

If a hyperrealistic cake artist offered to make a Doughboys cake featuring lifelike busts of Nick, Mitch and the rest of the crew, what flavors of cake, filling and frosting would each of you choose to represent yourselves?

Matt Peoples

Why hasn't the Food Network asked you guys to be judges on one of their many cooking competition shows?

Lj Holle

If you could pick one menu item to snap your fingers and have it appear in front of you, would you go with something expensive, something too complicated to ever make yourself, or just a simple favorite? (Mitch doesn't have to answer since he can snap his finger and his butler can get any food for him)

Scott B

Desert island utensil? Plate or bowl for the rest of your life? If you could only have one meal a day, brekkie, lunch or din din?

Andrew M

With football season now upon us, what are your favorite gameday inspired eats and what would be your ideal menu if you were hosting a tailgate cookout before a game? Thanks you and go Pats!

Blane Ferguson

What is the best fast food deal you have encountered? Back in the early 90's, McDonalds in my town would do 29 cent hamburger Tuesdays and 39 cent cheeseburger Wednesdays. Also in the mid-90s, the Subway I went to would sell 2 footlongs for $8. Many years before they introduced the $5 footlong special.

Erik Kang

In 2021, there was a freeze here in Texas that knocked out our power for a few days. We had plenty of supplies so it never got this desperate, but: if you had to eat one thing for three days straight, what would it be? The item has to be eaten as it comes: can't heat it up, can't boil it, can't add any condiments.

Michael Golden

What’s your favorite disease?

Oscar Quintanilla

I was just in a zoom meeting for work and was working on a separate issue while my team was trouble shooting an error in a shared file. I forgot to mute myself and I said very loud and clear: Fuckin idiots! Had nothing to do with what they were doing. I had received an email with the incorrect info and it just came out. The talking stopped immediately and I knew everyone heard it. I apologized profusely and was so embarrassed. Everyone thought it was funny and was laughing but my stomach just sank and I was bright red of embarrassment. So the questions is have you had any zoom mishaps or every text something embarrassing to the wrong person or said something about someone not realizing they were in earshot?

Matt G.

Sometimes after a meal you can get burps that can last throughout the day, sometimes those burps remind you of your meal due to the taste of the burp. What's the best meal or food to produce the best day-long burp? Mine's Chicken Teriyaki

What's the hungriest you've ever been?

YouTubers Eddy Burback and Ted Nivison recently visited every Margaritaville location in North America in a single road trip. They had previously done the same with Rainforest Cafe a year prior. What novelty chain restaurant should they tour in 2024?

Philip Ehlke

Are the boys gonna play Starfield and what kind of weird ass freaks are they gonna make? Being a space pirate is cool but what about a space squatter? I’m gonna FTL travel to overstay my welcome at strangers homes, just step in and take over because nobody can stop me 🫡

I’d come back as the weird shaped(stars? crowns?) nuggets BK had in the mid 2000’s. Why? Cause I’m a piece of shit

McDonald’s sell country-specific items like a green curry chicken burger in Malaysia and the former McOz (burger with beetroot) in Australia. What country-specific burger concoction would you create to represent the US?

This one's for everyone! If you were to die and be resurrected as a meal what do you think you would come back as? And this is based on your karmic balance at this point in your life so answer honestly!

What the hell?

Joe Evans

Hey doughboys, you have now been with me through graduate school, followed by a pandemic, two pregnancies, and now two kids. Thank you for the ongoing light-hearted entertainment. What is dinner do you eat when you are alone? When I am alone, I eat much differently than with my family or friends. When it's just my son, baby and me, we eat boxed Mac N Cheese, eggs and frozen peas, or grilled cheese for dinner. When it's just me, I will eat ice cream or a fried egg and toast. What is your go-to I am just alone and eating dinner? Often I am standing at the kitchen counter, or lying on the couch watching TV.

Beth Gilden

If you lost all your teeth and had to have your food ground into a paste to eat it through a straw, what MEAL, (not food item) would you have pasted? (Regular smoothies are off the table, but you can add fruit or vegetables to your "meal paste". Bonus: if you do Breakfast, lunch, dinner

Kevin

If you were to do a D&D one-shot episode what race and class would everyone play as?

Bry-N

What is the single largest meal/most caloric meal you've ever taken down?

JG86

Everyone has a favorite cheat meal or reward meal. But what about a “punishment meal”; a purposefully bland, or purposefully disgusting choice of foods in order to punish one’s bad behavior (dietary or otherwise)? I often serve myself punishment meals when I’ve misspent money, acted like a dickhead, forgotten something important, or treated myself to too many “reward meals”. For a week straight I ate only cold Beanie Weanee for lunch. So: What’s y’all’s ultimate punishment meal?

Sluderesque

If you had unlimited funds, what fast food style restaurant would you want to create? Fast food spaghetti is a valid answer. 😉

Rebecca

If you could go back in time and prevent one fast food chain from ever existing, which would you choose to erase from the timeline?

Jeff Byrne

Mitch’s favorite bar pie?

Christopher Brown

Which fast food mascot would you want to star in their own video game (à la Sneak King featuring the Burger King King)?

Connor Handy

followed by 'what chain would you actually get hired for?'

DC

Do you eat the cheese scraps that stick to the wrapper of a cheeseburger? If so, do you scrape it or lick it? What other “food scraps” do you always eat?

Scott Murphy

Australia seems to refer to a lot more fast food items as "burgers" than America, just what does constitute a "burger" in America?

Luke Rees

I recently had to start working in an office 3 days a week. Often times I’ve been too lazy to pack my lunch, so I end up eating whatever shitty snacks they have at the office to forgo eating out. It sucks. What would your packed lunch look like?

Chase Scott

If you could have your memory erased so you could eat something for the first time again, what food would you choose? I would probably pick a soup dumpling.

Matthew Incantalupo

When you’ve been out for a couple of hours on an evening, what’s the late night ‘it will be ok’ snack, lots of love from Amsterdam

Average Keith

What is one of your favorite pieces of clothing you had when you were a kid? Why was it so memorable?

Kyle Beaudette

Somehow you get to pick the restaurant the AMPTP eats at ahead of the next meeting with the negotiating committees. Where do you send them to get them in the best mindset to listen to reason?

Mitch Kapa

Vhs home videos- dinner & a movie!

Austin Shippy

If humans eventually evolved to gain the ability to consume plastic and waste as a way to adapt to the climate crisis (like in the movie "Crimes of the Future"), and you were still doing the podcast reviewing stuff like sandwich bags and bottle caps... What object would be worthy enough to review as the last episode of Doughboys?

MS Paint Trash

Have you ever bought food that you didn’t want to avoid an awkward conversation? My dad took me to Fenway Park when I was kid and I mistook a peanut vendor for a guy throwing out souvenirs. We didn’t want the bag of peanuts he threw me but we were too embarrassed to say never mind.

Matt F

Recently I had a special romantic interest comment on my leftover “cellar” of drive thru dipping sauces in my fridge. What sauces do you either consider “rare” and/or “must-saves”? Also, do you ever use those to cross-chain items with sauces? For example, Chik-Fil-A Sauce with McNuggets?

Chad Croosh

I listened to Doughboys on the way to the hospital for my second child’s planned induction. What would you eat after you gave birth? Both times I have had pizza, chicken tenders, and fries and it was amazing both times. Pushing a child out is quite a workout!

Jessica Geisler

Friend of the show Jason Mantzoukas is the voice of Dunkin. What chain would you want to be the spokesman/voice?

Michael Chervenick

This is inspired by the recent Sombreros episode. There’s a lyric Blink-182 Josie that says, “she brings me Mexican food from sombreros just because.” I’ve always wanted to try sombreros because of that song. Are there songs that have name dropped restaurants that have made you want to go there?

Derek Oster

Does anyone miss any fast food item that is no longer available? Mine is Jack in the Box's mini corn dogs.

John L

You're taking over a movie theater for one night. You have to pick 2 movies for a double feature, but must also replace the concession stand with a fast food franchise that somehow ties into or pairs well with both movies. Which 2 movies, and which fast food franchise do you choose?

Question for everyone, what kind of media content makes you squeamish? Anything with surgery or cutting gives me the icks.

Grant Morisstan

A little over a year ago I had bariatric surgery. One of the rules post surgery is that I’m not supposed to have carbonated drinks ever again. I love real coke so much I almost didn’t have the surgery because I wasn’t sure if I wanted to live life without soda! My question is if you could significantly improve your health/life but you had to give up one of your favorite food groups or drinks forever, could you do it? I decided it was worth it and have lost 160 pounds and I don’t regret my decision, but I still miss being able to drink a coke. Love you guys, thanks for entertaining me every week on my drive to/from work for years now.

sfrance23

If any of you could pick a dream job that you had to work 40 hours a week ar what would it be?

Mason Rebitzke

I recently got to see the Frankmobile, formerly the Weinermobile, in person for the first time and it felt like meeting a celebrity. It got me thinking about how we need more food-shaped cars in the world. What food-shaped vehicle would you want to drive around as your everyday vehicle?

Bradley Hill

What bygone-era chain do you miss, or wish you could have tried? I remember Roy Rogers so fondly, although I'm sure it probably sucked shit.

Bobby Beans

Question for Yusong — if the doughboys we’re guest stars in a Nancy drew game what would be the mystery and what would it be called?

Caithlin MacManus

Everyone has Good memories when they smell a certain food, but do any of you associate a food smell with a Bad memory? Also, is Mitch ever going to repay me the five dollars I gave him at wrestling over five years ago?

Matthew Ryan

If you were to pick up a new sport to play almost every day as exercise, what would you choose?

Mike Cooper

You know those jugglers that will juggle three apples at a time and take a bite of each one as they go? Imagine that’s you, but you hate apples. What three different items are you juggling?

George Dadasovich

Hello, I have one very simple but important question: how is the Rachel Ray bag doing? A staple and under appreciated MVP of the early years. I think it’s time to give her her flowers. Please tell me she’s enjoying retirement.

Doctor Remulak

If when you butt chug a drink and it is the best tasting version that drink could possibly be - what drink would it be?

Curtis Brewster

Recently took my new born son home from the hospital and doughboys came on in the first car ride home. He immediately started screaming crying. Should I be worried?

Logan

Ever had a "you get what you pay for" moment when cooking? I just threw away a week's worth of leftovers because I bought the cheap refried beans. Sure they were a great value, but they made the entire dish taste rancid.

Austin Shippy

What are your thoughts on anchovies on pizza? Its my favorite pizza topping and I feel like people think I’m joking when I say that

Dan Harrison

What kind of show or movie would you NOT watch during a meal? Either because it's too complex (hard to eat and watch) or because it makes you lose your appetite?

Zach Karpinellison

Love you guys. If you had to host another podcast, which one would you host and why? Thanks for the laughs. P.S. my hot successful wife wrote this for me because I was too shy.

Tony Porter

Mitch, you have Wally and Irma’s little paws in one hand and Wiger’s hand in another, Sophie’s Choice style over a steep embankment, how do you explain to the Wigers why you dropped their son and brother?

Shawn Burkey

If you had to eat a domesticated house animal/pet which one would you choose, and how would you prepare them

If you were in a honey i shrunk the kids scenario a la oatmeal cream pie in the movie, what food would you want to eat? Also, Mitch i already know what you'd want Wayne to shoot in Honey i blew up the kid.

Kevin Gootee

What video game mascot (past or present) do you wish had their own cereal AND what type would it be (marshmallows, specific shapes etc) Flush me if it’s been asked 🙏

Purowave

I recently won The Wing Dome's 7 alarm spicy wing challenge beating out two competitive eaters and 4 other amateurs. I won $500 but am contemplating if it was worth it. With hindsight being 20/20, how much money would you have to win to justify the gastroentestinal-nightmare that follows? For reference, I ended up puking up all of the wings that I ate and they were just as spicy coming back up. I also had to make a Mitch style pit stop on the way home except I dont have as good of a friend as Susser and just had to hide in an alley. Video proof of my win and not just a made up story. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CudLLBEuRn-/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Would you microwave a burrito for one minute or two minute? This is also a test if you are a caveman recently unthawed.

Will Jakubs

(I sent this question to the feedbag email but not sure if it got answered) Hi Doughboys! Last night my girlfriend and I went to the craziest mash-up of restaurants I've ever been to. The restaurant is called "Mai Pai", in Hamilton Ontario - it's a tiki bar that also serves some of the best Detroit-style pizza I've ever had. What surprised me the most was how well the two complimented each other, with the sweetness of the cocktail drinks cutting the saltiness of the pizza. If you could mash-up any two concepts into a restaurant, regardless of whether you think they would go well together or not, what would it be? Alternatively, can you pitch a restaurant based on a pun like Mai Pai? I'll understand if you don't want to answer this question since it's fairly similar to what Wiger probably does in most writer's rooms. Union strong! Thanks for all you do. -Steve in Niagara, Canada aka Professor Steve in the Discord.

Stephen Emrich

Yusong, can you come up with one quick roast for each Nick and Mitch?

Kyle

If you had to eat one type of pet food for the rest of your life, what you choosing?

If you had to get cosmetic surgery to look identical to a food mascot, who would you pick?

Wesley

What do you think about the newer Heathcliff character Jimmy the frog?

Forest Lassman

Considering it’s almost football season, I’m wondering if Mitch or Nick have ever had any concussions. Also, what are some of your go to watching football on tv snacks? Love, Chris (the former Quincy mailman).

Chris

I have been going back and listening to each episode of the show from the beginning. This is clearly alarming behavior. Which chain restaurant would be best for my friends to stage my — or any — intervention at? Would you want a private room or would a cozy booth work?

chadxor

If you could grow any one thing on a tree or plant and keep it in your backyard, kitchen, bathroom, etc, which food would you choose? Example: I would choose a sausage pizza tree for endless cheesy, doughy, meaty goodness.

Al

How long do you wait to return to a restaurant after they gave you food poisoning?

Colin Studer

What would y'all do if you saw a rat (or other rodent) in a restaurant you were eating at?

Jane B.

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve discovered a new love - mixing dry cereals together. I never mix more than two types. One of my favorite “base cereals” is Frosted Mini Wheats, and then I’ll add something like l regular cheerios or a nice sprinkling of my children’s Fruity Pebbles. Do you guys enjoy mixing cereals together, and if you do, what do you mix? - Tim from North Carolina

Timothy Henderson

Please just let Yusong know we love him!

What associations do you have between chain restaurants and meaningful moments in your lives? I had my first Doritos Locos Tacos on my way to my grandpa's funeral.

Gabriel Mulcaire

Hey boys, it's the guy who waited in line for 12 hours in Detroit in 2022! My question is, if you could "adopt" any regional cuisine/dish/restaurant (outside of the areas that you've lived) as your own, which one would you choose?
