Food News: Bacon & Blue Dog and Kickin’ Coney from Sonic

Posted August 31st, 2011 | 5:54pm by Adam

Sonic is adding on to its 100% all-beef hot dog line again this fall, introducing two new hot dogs in the form of the Bacon & Blue Dog and the Kickin’ Coney. Here’s a little more information:

Bacon and Blue Dog: It’s a hot dog made with 100% pure beef, covered in crisp bacon, fresh lettuce, ripe tomato and blue cheese dressing on a poppy seed bun (450 Calories, 27 grams fat, 9 grams sat. fat, 17 grams protein.)

Kickin’ Coney: A hot dog made with 100% pure beef and topped with chili, cheddar cheese, crispy onions and chipotle BBQ sauce (480 calories, 27 grams fat, 11 grams sat fat, 19 grams protein)

In addition to the new hot dogs, Sonic is also introducing a fall-themed Pumpkin Pie Milkshake that comes with “real ice cream, real pumpkin, nutmeg and cinnamon blended with pie crust pieces.” It clocks in at 710 calories for a 14. oz shake and 1040 calories for a 20 oz. shake. I wonder if it’s as good as that Arctic Circle Pumpkin Pie Milkshake I had last year?
