Cheesecake Doughnuts at Krispy Kreme - Eat the Limited Edition Donuts Before They'Re Gone Forever

Not content to rest on its "most craveable" laurels, Krispy Kreme hit the streets with two new donuts that you're definitely going to wanna freebase. From now until January 26th, the chain is slinging a pair of cheesecake donuts ripe for inhalation.

For the chocolate lovers, there's the chocolate cheesecake donut, a decadent snack featuring a rich chocolate icing and tufts of brownie bits up top. For the chocolate lovers who also want other sugars, there's the caramel cheesecake donut, which ditches the cocoa for a graham cracker crumble and caramel drizzle.

Both are available now in America and Canada, but only for three weeks... so ditch that New Year's resolution to get skinny for a more realistic one of eating as many of these as you can in three weeks.
 
Great Canadian foods - Poutine, Montreal bagels, ketchup chips, and more - Thrillist Nation

The only 11 Canadian foods you'll ever need to eat

Montreal Smoked Meat
Our northern neighbors' answer to pastrami, Montreal-style smoked meat differs from Katz's signature meat in a number of ways. It's all brisket, gets marinated for much longer, has way more peppercorn and way less sugar, and is significantly thinner than its beefy counterpart. Those who eat it all the time are just as fat as us, though.
Why Canadians love it: Bold, smoky flavors and minimal work for your jaw (it's supposed to practically melt in your mouth).
Where to find a great example: Schwartz's Montreal Hebrew Delicatessen

BeaverTails
Lots of Canucks whip up their own homemade versions, but the BeaverTail is the eponymous dessert from BeaverTails Pastry, a Canadian institution since 1978. The fried dough is stretched to look like the bucktoothed rodent's tail and then topped with magical fixings like Nutella, caramel, bananas, M&M's, crushed Oreos, and more.
Why Canadians love it: Do you know how many gooey, delicious combinations are possible here?
Where to find a great example: Any of the BeaverTails locations, which're all over Quebec and also dam up arteries in Ontario and New Brunswick.

P?t? Chinois
This meat treat is pretty similar to shepherd's pie, but instead of crediting it to a sheep-herder, the Canadians name-check the Chinese -- "p?t? chinois" literally means "Chinese pie" -- for reasons that are still unclear. Murky origins aside, your standard pate chinois contains layers of beef, creamed corn, and mashed potatoes.
Why Canadians love it: This is good, old-fashioned comfort food, and given how basic it is, it's hard to screw up.
Where to find a great example: Le Binerie Mont-Royal, a spot that's been pumping out traditional Quebecois cuisine since 1938.

Bloody Caesar
This warped cousin of the Bloody Mary ditches tomato juice for a crucial ingredient: Clamato, a blend of tomato and clam juices produced by Mott's. Legend has it that when the cocktail's inventor, Walter Chell, first served the drink as a "Caesar", his British customer exclaimed, "That's a bloody good Caesar!", as British people are wont to do. The name stuck.
Why Canadians love it: They insist the less-thick-than-tomato-juice Clamato makes for a more refreshing cocktail.
Where to find a great example: The Westin Hotel in Calgary, where this boozy brunch staple originated.

Montreal Bagels
From a distance, these Canadian breakfast treats are just a little smaller than ours, and rocking bigger holes. But the Montreal-style bagel is guarded by a set of standards as strict as Mr. Feeny's. Every single one has to be handmade, poached in honey-infused water, and cooked in a wood-burning oven. Though we suppose that last part isn't too hard, since 75% of Canada's population is made up of lumberjacks.
Why Canadians love it: The guidelines ensure they're getting a quality, hand-crafted disc of dough every time. Also, honey-infused water.
Where to find a great example: Fairmount Bagel or St. Viateur Bagel

Nanaimo Bars
Taking their name from the city in British Columbia, these no-bake bars are probably what Bryan Adams was writing all those tender love ballads about. They consist of three layers: a crunchy base that might feature graham cracker crumbs and chopped nuts, a custardy middle part, and a chocolate top. Some people even get crazy with the icing in the middle, adding mint, mocha, or maple mousse peanut butter flavors.
Why Canadians love it: It's basically like eating fudge, with some bonus crunch and creaminess to make it a real party.
Where to find a great example: If you're going to do this right, you should go to their birthplace, and luckily the city of Nanaimo put together a convenient Nanaimo bar trail full of superior stops like Java Expressions.

Butter Tart
Once you've ruined half your teeth on Nanaimo bars and BeaverTails, launch an attack on your pancreas with another signature Canadian dessert, the butter tart. This pastry has a flaky exterior and a sugary filling that can skew either gooey or semi-solid, depending on the chef's preference. Usually they have raisins, but walnuts or pecans are also fair game.
Why Canadians love it: They're sweet and, owing to their size, infinitely snackable.
Where to find a great example: The Sweet Oven, which serves nothing but tasty butter tart varieties.

Poutine
Sometimes bastardized as disco fries by us Yankees, poutine is the star attraction of Canadian cuisine. Even if you can't pronounce "Wayne Gretzky", you know and love these gravy-and-cheese-curd-topped fries.
Why Canadians love it: It's gravy and cheese and fries. They're only human.
Where to find a great example: Poutini's House of Poutine has a ton of cred, as do the rest of these places.

Ketchup Chips
By far the most puzzling pick of the bunch, ketchup chips enjoy a remarkable popularity in the Great White North. A ton of brands mass produce 'em, and whenever overly ambitious American chip barons try and fail to launch them stateside, the Canadians welcome the haul with open arms.
Why Canadians love it: They liken them to better, less acidic salt and vinegar chips. With a hint of tomato!
Where to find a great example: Grocery stores across the border.

Tourti?re
When it comes to this meat pie, there are no rules -- just like in the more desolate areas of Canada! Or at least not many. Tourti?re will almost always have pork, as well as onions and spices like cinnamon and cloves. But you can add in veggies or potatoes or bonus meats, just so long as it goes in a pie crust, which is where everything should be anyway.
Why Canadians love it: The tourti?re allows for plenty of personal variation, yet no matter what, you're getting a hearty dinner.
Where to find a good example: The crazy historic Aux Anciens Canadiens, which knows its meat pies.

Timbits
In Canada, Munchkins are just members of the Lollipop Guild, not the bite-sized donut holes from Dunkin' Donuts. They have Timbits instead, and they are of course made by Tim Hortons. Notable differences: more varied Timbit flavors like apple fritter and blueberry, plus many wager the Timbits are slightly larger.
Why Canadians love it: Tiny donuts are loved by everyone, but especially by people who require tons of hot coffee, owing to that whole living in a frozen tundra business.
Where to find a great example: Tim Hortons, duh.
 
The atmosphere on Masters is so much better than other cooking shows.

PYT's Deep-Fried Ellio's Burger is the monster of your childhood dreams

You probably made Ellio's Pizza sandwiches all day, every (unsupervised) day in 6th grade, but trust us, they always had a startling lack of burger. PYT's latest monstrosity has arrived, and it's the Deep-Fried Ellio's Burger, an unfathomable combo of mozzarella and provolone cheeses, a meatball patty, marinara sauce, and deep-fried Ellio's pepperoni slices. You can grab one today if you live in Philly, or just stare longingly at the photo above and be inspired to make your own.

Doritos-encrusted bacon redefines superfood

Bacon's just fine as it is, but that hasn't stopped DudeFoods' Nick Chipman from messing with perfection. First it was Oreo-glazed bacon strips. Now, he's taken the next logical step by debuting deep-fried, Doritos-crusted bacon.

The process itself is actually as easy as opening a fresh bag of Cool Ranch. Just fry up however many bacon strips you want (so, all of them), then coat the cooked pieces in flour and an egg wash. That's when you sprinkle on the crushed-up chips, which should adhere nicely to that goopy covering. Drop the newly orange slices in a deep fryer (or pan of super-hot oil) for about 30 seconds each, and voila. We don't wanna say this beats deep-fried Doritos pizza, but it kinda does.

We got a champion barista to rank the sub-par coffee your parents drink

For coffee aficionados, it can be hard to remember the days before fair-trade, adjective-heavy specialty coffee. But before Counter Culture, or even Starbucks, there were first-wave roasters peddling steel cans of grounds (gasp!), the likes of which are now only seen on visits to your parents' house.

So to see if any of these coffees are actually good to the last drop, we asked Lorenzo Perkins, certified coffee instructor at Cuvée and executive council member of the Barista Guild of America, to put five of the biggest coffee brands through the same rigorous blind-tasting process that his roasting company applies to their own beans.

"This is actually something I think all my colleagues should do. When you're only drinking specialty coffee, you lose that global perspective."

We pillaged the grocery coffee aisle and came away with five contenders: Folgers Classic Roast, Maxwell House French Roast, Chock full o'Nuts Original, Community Coffee Cafe Special, and Yuban.


5. MAXWELL HOUSE
Aromas: Wet dog, burning
Flavors: Fish oil, despair
"What death tastes like."


4. YUBAN
Aromas: Snickers bar, barn-y
Flavors: Mineral oil, chocolate
"This tastes better than it smells. It's a close call with Maxwell House, but this edged it out because I can actually swallow it. Bonus points for pleasant graphic design."


3. FOLGERS
Aromas: Unhappy children, wet wool
Flavors: Charred, wet cardboard, artificiality
"It tastes as if someone sprayed coffee flavor onto coffee beans


2. CHOCK FULL O'NUTS
Aromas: Burnt hair
Flavors: Roasted Styrofoam, gamey
"It's savory, kind of like you're eating wild boar meat that's about to turn. That said, this isn't that bad. I wouldn't return it if I was eating in a Denny's."


1. COMMUNITY COFFEE
Aromas: Chocolate, honey, wet paper
Flavors: Actual acidity, syrup-like sweetness, oh-sweet-surrender & mercy
"That's coffee! This could pass for a low-grade specialty coffee."

CONCLUSION
After the relentless tasting, Lorenzo poured himself a cup of Cuvée that he'd brewed several hours prior. He originally considered the batch foul by his normal standards, but after a few hours of cupping the big brands it took on an entirely new character: it was suddenly really, really good.

Although Lorenzo literally gagged several times during the test, and the rest of the staff remarked that the roastery smelled like a sewer lit on fire, by the end of the day he conceded that both Chock full 'oNuts and Community Coffee were not as gross as he expected and are actually deserving of some respect. The other grounds confirmed that most of the titans of first-wave coffee are truly washed up.
 
Bacon Wrapped Grilled Cheese Sticks

http://dudefoods.com/bacon-wrapped-grilled-cheese-sticks/

I keep thinking that one day I’ll get sick of eating so much bacon, but amazingly it still hasn’t happened. In fact, as time goes by I only seem to be growing more and more fond of it as I keep incorporating it into more of my meals, which with how much I already eat doesn’t even seem like it should be possible.

Recently I came up with an idea to make some grilled cheese sticks, but after a quick Google search I found that tons of people have already made and written about that same exact thing. What I didn’t see though were any grilled cheese sticks that were wrapped in bacon!

Do you know what’s even better than how great these Bacon Wrapped Grilled Cheese Sticks taste? How easy they are to make! Then again, pretty much everything I make is easy because I have absolutely zero cooking experience whatsoever.

Alright, so you want to make your own Bacon Wrapped Grilled Cheese Sticks? Start off by frying up a couple grilled cheese sandwiches and then cutting each sandwich into for or five pieces. Then, wrap bacon strips around your grilled cheese sticks and to finish things off you can either drop them in a deep fryer for 45 seconds or so, or just put them on a baking sheet in your oven for 17 minutes at 375°.

I’m pretty sure I’ve yet to come across a food that isn’t better when it’s wrapped in bacon. It’s not only the addition of bacon that makes it good though, it’s the fact that as the grease drips from the bacon it’s usually soaked up by whatever it is that the bacon is wrapped around.
