Oh, and I like to see my bagels...no ordering ahead for me. :) But there did seem to be quite a few pickup orders while I was there. Again, a little busier than usual due to the holiday.

So fun - I also love eating there. Or I did :-)

it is very difficult to eat a DQ blizzard while driving on a winding highway - I ordered the special milkshake but they were out! The pumpkin cookie butter milkshake must be super popular!

I'm drooling here...I've been craving a fudge brownie blizzard for weeks and haven't gotten over there yet. The pumpkin cookie butter shake looks wonderful also...guess I'm going twice. :)

blizzard with chocolate ice cream and brownie pieces.

I don’t know if other DQ locations stock the pumpkin cookie butter. I should have had a different shake. Sigh

Very disappointing Jack Daniels barbecued pulled pork from the ready-to-heat/eat section of the grocery. I should have known better.

can you doctor up an improvement? Now I’m fearing that it’s made with old (unsold) pork.

No, those are pre-packaged, manufactured elsewhere trays. It's not that the pork is old/unsold. It's usually that the seasonings or sauces aren't quite what one would expect.

Correct, of course.

I may try to salvage by using some of my bbq spice techniques, but likely won't buy again. Given that I do an excellent smoked barbecue myself (he said humbly :D) I will know to refrain from this sort of thing next time.
