'Twilight' Fans May Be Disappointed in Burger King 'New Moon' Promotion

Fast Food Reviews

BK Burger Shots
Grade: D
Burger King may be trying to capitalize on the "Twilight" bandwagon with its special packaging for the Burger Shots, but the product inside falls flatter than Taylor Lautner's abs in "New Moon." Our tasters called these "overcooked, dry and weirdly sweet" and "a sad, sad burger with a very soggy bun."

Taco Bell Black Jack Taco
Grade: B
Taco Bell may be trying to provoke with its new Black Jack taco ads, but the only thing that stands out with this taco is the shell -- and bummer for Taco Bell, black has no taste. The "zesty pepper jack sauce" really doesn't stand out in this taco. What you're getting here is a regular taco with a spiffy shell.

Wendy's Bacon Deluxe
Grade: B+
This new bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's is big on applewood-smoked bacon flavor, which helps this sandwich rank well amidst the competition. Single, double or triple patty versions mean this Bacon Deluxe can try to satisfy the heartiest of appetites.

Dunkin' Donuts Pumpkin Donut
Grade: A-
Imagine a cider-mill-style glazed cake doughnut with the gentle spices of autumn. That's what you have with Dunkin' Donuts seasonal 89-cent doughnut. Our testers found it to have a distinctly cruller-like consistency. Be warned: It's very orange!

Dunkin' Donuts Pumpkin Muffin
Grade: B+
Our tasters were split on this muffin, with some calling it super moist and some thinking it to be super mushy. It tastes like pumpkin bread -- and that's good cause the muffin is the size of a small pumpkin.

Dunkin' Donuts Low-Fat Apple Caramel Muffin
Grade: C-
Dunkin' Donuts says this is it's first low fat muffin, with only 3 grams of taste. But what they've created is a healthy monster -- a very dry, crumbly monster with veins of caramel and a heavy overcoat of sugar crystals. Tough, dry and chewy -- yum.

Domino's Chocolate Lava Crunch Cakes
Grade: B
Remember when pizzerias did those awful sugary dessert pizzas? Well, Domino's has wised up and decided to forgo such nonsense for its new lava crunch cake. Our order arrived warm with its advertised "flowing chocolate fudge" looking a bit like glossy plastic. But it did well in the taste department, with our eaters likening it to brownie batter or warm frosting. The cake itself tasted like a crunchy chocolate cookie.

KFC Grilled Chicken
Grade: B
Pardon us, but where did these chicken snobs come from all of a sudden? Folks all over the country were a-cluck over Oprah's free grilled chicken coupon giveaway, wondering how dare she throw her considerable influence behind something so declasse and unhealthy. Were they planning on going home and slow-poaching some tilapia with a pilaf of quinoa and an acai infusion? Because really, this stuff (the portion on the left) is pretty tasty. It's smartly seasoned, nicely juicy, properly cooked and yes, while it might be a wee bit greasy, a paper towel quickly blots off the excess. We're crying fowl on the naysayers.

Taco Bell Volcano Burrito
Grade: D
This burrito is all bark and no bite. Either the chef grabbed the mild sauce by mistake or the 'volcano' they're getting their sauce from is dormant. The whole thing is so tightly packed with beef, there isn't much room for anything else, save for random strips of red tortilla shell sprinkled throughout. We're assuming they're supposed to add crunch, but they ended up just being soggy from proximity to the greasy beef filling. Sour cream, supposedly included as a cooling agent really just adds a layer of calories, but if you're just in it for the beef, go ahead -- have a cow.

McDonald's Snack Mac Wrap
Grade: C+
Meet the Snack Mac Wrap, the Big Mac incarnation of the fast-food wraps that are increasingly popular with folks who like thinking they are eating healthily. So what do you get? The signature Big Mac sauce with two squished down meatball patties, a sprinkling of iceberg lettuce strips and two dill pickle rounds. Yes, it is a little less carb and calorie laden but since when is a tortilla a satisfying substitute for the three buns a regular Big Mac packs? In the end, go big or go home. If you really want a Big Mac, eat one. Your taste buds won't be fooled by this wrap unless you're only in it for the sauce.
