My Dinner with Wiger
Added 2018-04-03 07:01:59 +0000 UTC
Post Munch Madness, Mitch and Wiger go guestless to review Taco Bell’s new Nacho Fries, and to have a conversation about a movie about a conversation: My Dinner with Andre, directed by Louis Malle.

Or, I'd like to see a Tournament exclusively with Value Menu items (so, say, nothing over $2.50 or so).

2018-04-10 23:58:46 +0000 UTCI'd like to see Tournament with classic menu items versus new menu items. So 8 or so classic items (Big Mac, Taco Bell bean burrito or 7 layer burrito, Western Bacon Cheeseburger, Wendy's classic single or double, etc) vs 8 Johnny-come-latelies (whatever fancy burger McD's is pushing at the time, cheesy gordita crunch, Carl's sliders [maybe], whatever version of the Baconator Wendy's is pushing, etc). I would also say that prior winners of the Tournament should be excluded.

2018-04-10 23:58:10 +0000 UTCThe next Tournament of Chompions should be fast food breakfast food items

2018-04-05 10:19:36 +0000 UTCAlso Nick... Of course the low fat sour cream isn't because of the calories. It's Cheaper! The manufacturer uses the milk fat for other products thus reducing the cost of the low fat product:) You'll notice skim milk is also cheaper a lot of times at the grocery store for the same reason. Common man, its taco bell. It's about having the cheapest product possible, not health:P

2018-04-05 06:40:12 +0000 UTCEntrees are on the sideline! Do the best sides from various chain restaurants (fry region, etc).

2018-04-04 20:18:09 +0000 UTCNeil's idea of the 'Best Item at Each Chain' is great. If you just stick with the College Basketball theme, why not devote January/February Doubles episodes to building the bracket? Pick a different restaurant each week (limit it to 8 weeks), choose the best item at each one, and slot them into the bracket. Then in March you can finally have that Big Mac vs. Wendy's Spicy Chicken matchup we've all been dreaming about (unless Susser somehow fucks it up).

Bobby
2018-04-04 03:48:59 +0000 UTCOk read the comments... I was also definitely thinking 1. Breakfast 2. Sides 3. Mexican... I also really like the appetizer idea and the value meal sounds good too! It’s waaay too soon to do the signature item of each restaurant.
Emily
2018-04-04 03:08:45 +0000 UTCI would like to see the next Tournament of Chompions to be the best value meal from each fast food place. The $5 fill up vs the 4 for $4 vs the Hot-N-Ready for example
Joe Moran
2018-04-04 02:09:38 +0000 UTCIdea for the next Tournament of Chompions. Tournament of Chompions: APPocalypse! It's all about appetizers!

2018-04-04 00:55:31 +0000 UTCAlso: Supreme Fries from Taco Bell Canada >>> Nacho Fries

2018-04-03 21:33:11 +0000 UTCI would actually be interested in hearing - best chain salads. I think it would be challenging in ways outside of previous chompianships, in that I think there could be some really bad salads out there. And although it might be healthy in general, we all know that salads can "be bad for you" if loaded with dressing, but at least it wouldn't come close to killing mitch. I'd also think I'd learn a lot about chain salads as generally this is something I stay away from at chains, but if I knew the top three chain salads, I might grab one the next time I'm at one of those places - think about it won't you?
J M D
2018-04-03 21:28:48 +0000 UTCMunch Madness- Brain Freeze. You'd review the shakes or frozen treats from chains. In n out shake, Wendy's frostee, McFlurry, Carl's Jr shakes, Sonic shakes, Dairy Queen Blizzard...
Michelle
2018-04-03 21:08:59 +0000 UTCI will stomp around demanding a Breakfast of Chompions tournament where you review the breakfast menu at fast food joints, but deep down I know this will never happen as it involves Mitch being awake before 11 AM.
Punkroctopus!
2018-04-03 20:16:48 +0000 UTCDear Doughboys, the next Tournament of Chompions should focus on one of two options: Either the sides being called off the sidelines in Tournament of Chompions: Feed League or the true deserving premise, that little sweet treat we call dessert. TOURNAMENT OF CHOMPIONS: THE SWEETEST SIXTEEN. The ratings system can and should be 1-5 scoops. Please have me on the show to announce my idea has been chosen. Thanks and love the show.

Stephen Williams
2018-04-03 18:43:43 +0000 UTCOr expand it to a Best of Sides? McD's fries vs. KFC mac n' cheese vs. Carl's Jr. jalapeño poppers?
Gwildor's Majestyk Melons
2018-04-03 18:17:46 +0000 UTCAgreed with other comments for ToC ideas: 1) Breakfast 2) Mexican food (lots of chains in this category) 3) Sandwiches (e.g. Jersey Mike's, Jimmy John's, Subway) And would add: 4) Sweet treats (e.g. Dunkin' Donuts, Baskin Robbins, Pinkberry) 5) Best sides (main courses stay on the sidelines)

Han Huynh
2018-04-03 17:10:37 +0000 UTCNext tournament idea: Battle of the Mascots! Find out which chain character is the best overall. this way Nick and Mitch wont have to destroy their bodies eating extra meals for a whole month.

2018-04-03 16:19:06 +0000 UTCmaybe it would be too hard to score effectively.. but a tournament of the best fast food fries would be epic
Chris Carosi
2018-04-03 15:51:24 +0000 UTCBREAKFAST OF CHOMPIONS!
Huzzafk
2018-04-03 14:52:16 +0000 UTCBreakfast is good. I would also consider sub sandwiches. Lots of options on places and items. You could do a standard turkey/ham/veggie and then a unique sandwich from each. Hurting your body/spirit less is a bonus.
kevtron
2018-04-03 14:37:40 +0000 UTCBreakfast food is good in theory but Mitch cannot wake up early!!

2018-04-03 13:54:28 +0000 UTCevery episode should end that way
Jack Velez
2018-04-03 13:51:02 +0000 UTCi've noticed the satie/zelda oot similarity before as well!
Jack Velez
2018-04-03 13:42:36 +0000 UTCWhatever you do, make sure you plan ahead and space out the meals so you don't end up eating a billion pizza's in a month. I know this means it won't be as fresh in your memory, but you gotta think about your own health and enjoyment.
Patrick Chan
2018-04-03 12:56:11 +0000 UTCI also like the idea of a burrito competition.
Steve
2018-04-03 12:13:55 +0000 UTCBreakfast of Chompions or Mexican Standoff. Both could have one side of the bracket that's fast food, and one side that's sit down/fast casual.
Matthew
2018-04-03 12:09:26 +0000 UTCFry tournament! They’re a huge factor in chain restaurants, people are passionate about who has the best fries, and they’re not as unhealthy.

2018-04-03 11:29:18 +0000 UTCFrozen desserts tournament of chompions: ice cream, frozen yogurt, etc

Geoffrey Moore
2018-04-03 07:32:41 +0000 UTCI agree with the Fry-off
JayK
2018-04-03 07:25:00 +0000 UTCIt should be “ the fries off” all fries and it would be much easier and might not kill Mitch. You could add the count in as a factor and include sauces as the wild card. If you think you can’t fill an hour and a half with fries talk see past podcasts
