Quiznos
Is your diet gluten-sensitive? Well, Quiznos got your back, as they are adding a new gluten-free bread choice to their menu so you can still enjoy their savory sandwiches. All U.S. Quiznos chains are teaming up with Udi’s for the gluten-free bread, which is available in regular and large sizes of subs. Note that there’s an extra charge that will vary by location.
Now, if you’re going gluten-free but are craving a sweet treat, Quiznos U.S. and Canada have also partnered up with Sweet Street. They’re serving their popular Honduran Chocolate Manifesto Brownie prices at $3.50 each (will vary by location).

From The Club
March is even brighter with these new menu additions around to satisfy my cravings. I’m excited to taste Red Robin’s Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza along with some Hot Honey Wings. I love the combination of sweet and spicy on everything! Now imagine that with a Hershey’s Classic Chocolate Doughnut dessert from Krispy Kreme. While I’m not a fan of any sweetness overload dessert, I can make an exception for those Hershey’s-filled doughnuts!
