"My 15 Wings came fresh & tasted fine. A little greasy. The Triple Chocolate Chunk Brownie I had this time didn't have much flavor, just tasted like mush. Like it was soft & everything, but it didn't taste like much of anything. I'm not sure why, I usually enjoy the Triple Chocolate Chunk Brownie when I get it."
