    KK built a huge new free standing store here on a highly visible and expensive corner because the new president of KK at that time was a BU grad here in Peoria. That store was closed in less than a year, about the same time he was fired. The store set vacant for some time and eventually sold for a song. Now it's is some discount eyeglass franchise. I never got there to taste whatever the big draw was all about.
    Doesn't surprise me bud, you didn't miss anything.  I could take you to a half-dozen places here for a better all around experience.  Our Davenport KK closed up shop some time ago....buh-bye.

    Now Cinnabon is a different story.
    You'd probably like it better if another "K" was included... :smiley:
    Not me son, Butt Blasters may though.

    Happy Meals are nostalgic.

    Seems like you would enjoy eating one just like KK, and spending some time in the Mickey D's Playplace.  =)

    Nope, but it's an accurate food quality comparison though, I'm sure your Mom and Dad took you there too.  Nuggets or burger?

    You TP addicts crack me up.  Cholula is way more flavorful and palate friendly.  Bitches.

    Haven't even got started on that yet, but agree with your assessment 100%. 

    KK butt hurt, and now TP butt hurt?

    And Wikipedia says it's a Louisiana style hot sauce. Who knew that was a style. I have crappy taste in hot sauce - Tabasco and Franks are my go to. I'll have to give this Petes a whirl next.
