Culver’s Makes A Major Change
The change affects all 900 stores nationwide.
It can be a sketchy proposition to change the menu at your favorite restaurant. Just imagine if McDonald’s dropped its Egg McMuffin, or if Chick-fil-a tweaked the ingredients in their famous chicken sandwich. Part of the reason why we love our favorite restaurants is the predictability of the experience. We know exactly how a Big Mac will taste. It’s major drama when our tidy world is thrown into chaos because our favorite sauce has been discontinued.
But regardless of the risk, Culver’s has decided to make a change that doesn’t happen much anymore. They are changing their soft drinks from Pepsi products to Coke, and that’s huge. Culver’s has over 900 restaurants, which means someone at Pepsi is probably looking for a new gig at Culver’s. Wisconsin-based Culver’s is best known for its Butter Burgers and Concrete Mixers, which are frozen yogurt dessert items with various items mixed in. If you’ve never had a caramel cashew version, GOOT LAWD! A represenatative from Culver’s says they will still offer their own products, such as root beer and tea, alongside the Coke offerings. Coca Cola will now be supplyng Culver’s with Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Nello Yello, Hi-C and Powerade.
There have been rumblings from dissatisfied customers, but there has also been support for the new beverages. Making the change is not an easy task. With 900+ stores, signage, equipment, menus and more have to be switched. That’s gonna take a while. Meanwhile, if you are a Pepsi or Pepsi producst fan, you may wnna drop by sooner than later. If you’re a Coca-Cola fan, your time is coming! While most of the Culver’s locations are in other states, they operate 93 locations across Florida. Source: WFLA.com

What’s Your Favorite?
Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny.
That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards.
After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind.
He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex.
He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
