Left is the DQ near my office. Consistently does that. Right is the DQ in the next town over.

    Ah, I haven’t experienced that, but it could just be that the ones near me are well run. Quality wise I haven’t really noticed a difference, even my dad agreed (who worked for DQ back in like the 70’s I think) that it tastes pretty much the same as it always has, even if we’ve personally outgrown it and no longer find it appetizing.

    You sparked my curiosity enough that I looked up the price.

    The small Oreo cookie blizzard that I remember as a kid, which I will get a few times a year probably, is $2.89. I didn’t realize the different flavors have different prices, though I guess it makes a little sense?

    Can’t speak to the rest except to say the steak fingers I tried again a few years ago after a 30 year hiatus are as horrible as ever.
