Pizza Hut
Fast-food restaurants are always innovating (and competing), and that means there's always some new menu item to try. McDonald's, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Taco Bell, Subway, and other big chains regularly introduce limited-time offerings to entice customers to keep coming back. Here's what's new this month in the fast-food world.
Prices and availability are subject to change and may vary by location.
BK has a new version of its signature burger this month. The BBQ Brisket Whopper is topped with slow cooked brisket, American cheese, crispy onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and a sweet and tangy golden barbecue sauce. Plus, there's lots of new beverages to choose from, including strawberry lemonade and cold foam-topped iced coffee in a number of flavors.
Things are getting a little weird at Pizza Hut with its latest menu offering. The Cheesy Bites pizza has 28 cheese filled pull-apart breadsticks bites on the edge instead of traditional crust.

As usual, there's a new lineup of items this month at Taco Bell. Here's everything that's new.

A tart, refreshing treat is back at Culver's for the summer. Lemon Ice is frozen lemonade that's blended smooth. You can get it plain or mixed with fruit or frozen custard in a drink. Plus, the chain just revamped its chicken with new recipes for the crispy, spicy, and grilled chicken sandwiches.
Chipotle recently release a new dip, the first one in five years for the chain that keeps its menu notoriously small. Adobo ranch is a creamy blend of sour cream, adobo peppers, citrus, garlic, and herbs and spices to spice up your salads or burritos.
We all know that Orange Chicken is the best thing at Panda Express, and now it's even better, at least for a while. If you like spicy, try the Hot Orange Chicken, which adds more dried hot chili peppers to the mix, the same ones that are in Panda's kung pao chicken. It's spicy and sweet and perfect with the chain's fried rice.
