If you missed the appetizer chaos, that’s the video right before this one. And yes, there were a hilarious amount of chips. Apparently that was just the warm-up. 😂✌🏻

Thank goodness there were only three desserts.

Buffalo Wild Wings

I have so many questions. Mainly how we ended up with approximately 47 pounds of tortilla chips.

Jason ranking every appetizer at Buffalo Wild Wings sounded like a reasonable idea when we started. It became significantly less reasonable once the food started coming out.

Also, apparently this wasn’t enough food because the boys had an idea for what he should order next. 🙃

Thank you Buffalo Wild Wings for letting us completely take over a table with appetizers, and a HUGE thank you to our server for rolling with this ridiculous order and taking such good care of us.

What restaurant should Jason do next?

One of my favorite things about Jason is that he just genuinely loves food. Fancy food, diner food, local food, Chili’s… the man does not discriminate. And listen. Those mozzarella “Block Parties” are going to be a problem. We’re already craving them again.

Huge thank you to Chili's Grill & Bar and especially our server Clay for taking such good care of us, sharing his favorite with Jason, and fully supporting the ridiculous amount of food we ordered. Every single person we interacted with was SO kind.

Chili’s is having a moment right now and after this… we get it 🙌🏻

We’re terrible at gatekeeping the good ones, so here you go!

Brooklyn Bodega Bagels And Deli in Grand Rapids, MI.
Owned by Myleka and her husband Saaquan, who grew up in Brooklyn and clearly takes bringing that food to Michigan VERY seriously 🙌🏻

We went in thinking we’d try a couple things. For possibly the first time in his life, Jason ordered a reasonable amount of food…and immediately regretted his personal growth. Everything was SO good. The bagels. The sandwiches. The people. All of it. Turns out the one time I successfully convince my chef husband not to order half the menu is the one time I wish he had.

Guess we’ll have to go back…

Jason told them to give him 14 of their best flavors. It wasn’t a flight… he created his own fleet.

Which one are you picking?

Huge thank you to Oliver Gramm Small Batch Ice Cream in Caledonia, MI for serving us all 14 and making some really freaking good ice cream.

I fear we’re not done with the green apple slushie after all.

Can my chef husband guess which order belongs to the happiest vs. grumpiest regular? Play along and guess which one is which. 👍🏻

Thank you Maggie and the Westsider Cafe in Grand Rapids, MI for giving us an INCREDIBLE experience!

Well done, Taco Bell. You listened to an entire generation asking for a piece of our childhood back… and then brought in Salt & Straw Ice Cream to give it a very grown-up upgrade.

Who else begged their parents for a Choco Taco as a kid? Good news, we have adult money now and can buy two (or five) if we want. 🙌🏻

Nobody:My chef husband after hearing Taco Bell teamed up with Tajín:"We'll take one of everything." Am I surprised? Nope. Am I upset? Also no. Am I glad we got to try it all before it's gone? Heck yea. Which item are you ordering first?

Jason has officially ranked every Culver’s side. Culver’s people… please tell us how wrong he got this ranking. 😂
