If you are a healthy eater, you may want to look away. The following festival of junk food is not for the sensitive viewer. And, for those of you who are worried about my weakness for junk food, please know that several hearty bike rides have been going on before and after this day to prepare for our first trip to Sonic!
We had been anticipating our grand Sonic adventure for several days. Monday afternoon, James, Tracy’s son Aidan, Tracy, and I loaded up her vehicle with high hopes for some yummy-eating.
I have to admit, we had an absolute blast reading all of your comments encouraging us what to try on our maiden voyage to Sonic. I joked with Tracy how funny it is that I can pour out my heart on some deep spiritual matter, and maybe there will be seven comments. But, ask about your favorite Sonic food, and twenty-eight of you respond! Too funny…and it just made me smile. I’m a lover of food, myself, so you’ll be getting no judgment from me!
We saw the rollerskating waitresses…
We ordered a plethora of goodies from the suggestions you offered…
I ordered a delicious and delightfully messy toasted bacon cheeseburger…mmmmmm.
Tracy and I (along with our husbands who enjoyed the leftovers) voted the onion rings as our favorite. We liked the sweet batter. I dipped mine into the marvelously creamy ranch dressing.
I tasted a bite of the extreme tater tots…but decided I’m not a huge fan of chili cheese. And, I wished I would’ve known there were onions on the sandwich and the tots. I would’ve definitely said no onions! Tim finished them off, though!
James and Aidan both enjoyed their popcorn chicken. I don’t think James has ever met a popcorn chicken he didn’t like!
I believe Tracy gave her chili/coney dog a sideways thumb…or maybe a thumbs down. We both liked the toasted burger, though. Just no onions next time!
James really liked the cherry limeade, (which I believe was the most recommended item by our readers). The strawberry I ordered was O.K., too. Tracy and I decided we weren’t the biggest fans of the limeade. But, I sure relished the icy goodness of my Coke!
UPDATED: I forgot to mention that Tracy gave the orange creamscicle drink two thumbs up…and James and I deemed the same honor to the pineapple shake (James’ choice that I thought was a really random choice, but turned out to be delish!)
Our trip to Sonic was fun and filling! The staff was friendly, and the service was fast and accurate…even with our gigantic order! In fact, we enjoyed it so much, along with your participation, that we thought it might be fun to try some other restaurants that we haven’t tried before.
Because Tracy and I feel it’s necessary to name all of our projects, we thought we could call this one Traveling Food Fest 2010. So…we are up for suggestions. (Please note, we will be bringing our favorite food connoisseurs (James and Aidan) along for the ride.) If you know of a yummy and fun or unique eating establishment, please leave a comment here. We will try to visit some of the places you suggest this summer for some random fun, and then we’ll do a little review on our blog. We will travel anywhere up to 2 hours from Northwest Ohio. Thanks again for your suggestions! Have a blessed day!
