'Strange things are afoot at the Circle K' ... Guy Fieri partners with gas station
Circle K and Guy Fieri Fire Up the Flavor with New Collaboration
Excerpt:
CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Circle K, the national convenience store chain, and chef, restaurateur, and Emmy Award-winning host Guy Fieri are teaming up to announce a new fresh food collaboration. The partnership will bring 11 new, exclusive Flavortown-inspired breakfast, lunch and dinner items to participating Circle K and Holiday Stationstores locations, with the first regional launch beginning this September.
"Our customers are looking for more from their convenience store experience, and we're answering that call by partnering with Guy Fieri to bring his iconic Flavortown creations to Circle K," said Gary Brant, Vice President North American Food Service at Circle K. "This collaboration is about redefining what people can expect from convenience store food, demonstrating our commitment to innovation and listening directly to our customers' cravings for high-quality, flavorful options on the go."
The new menu features a range of bold, "off-the-hook" options for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Each item is crafted to deliver the authentic, craveable Flavortown experience Guy Fieri is known for. These exclusive culinary innovations are available first across participating Circle K and Holiday Stationstores locations in 10 states, including Alaska, Idaho, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
“Flavortown is as much a lifestyle as it is a place so when it comes to great food and flavor, it’s all about finding it wherever you are,” said Guy Fieri. “Starting now, together with Circle K, I’m bringing my Flavortown foods to your corner store, your highway stop and everywhere in between. Real flavor, real fast…let’s go!”
The Circle K Flavortown menu includes:
- Mac N' Cheese Burger: A beef patty topped with bacon, mac & cheese, and jalapeño American cheese.
- Sweet Heat Fried Chicken & Waffle Sandwich: A spicy breaded chicken sandwich with jalapeño American cheese, served between two waffles.
- Denver Omelet on a Cheddar Bun Sandwich: A cheddar bun filled with egg, ham, and cheese for a perfect grab-and-go breakfast.
- Candy Chaos Cookie: A wild mix of candy pieces, chocolate chips, potato chips, peanut butter chips, pecans, and pretzels.

Well I love capitalism. And I've never bought any of this over-hyped stuff since I started seeing it in the frozen aisle. Which means.... who da fugh buying it and letting him get away with this travesty?

Take the jalapeño out of the burger and I’d be all in on that one and the Denver Omelet. But of course it’s all about the prices

The denver omelet one looks okay, but I don't think I'd ever actually buy any of them.

So, more convenient store slop, but it’s what people were asking for. If this food is high-quality in those places, then I feel for those people. Guy - just stop, please. This is not good for anyone but you, and you have more than you need. Shameful.

Guy is securing the bag. If you don’t want to buy it, no one is forcing you too. But if someone offered you money for something like this, I’m pretty sure you’d take it no questions asked.

Exactly! I always see comments like that, but I know without hesitation those same people would take the money. Jealousy I guess

I’m actually part of the team on the manufacturing side helping to roll this out and it’s been a non stop headache. We make all of his frozen/food service stuff and it’s all so over the top lol. I’m particularly excited for the taquito churros, sounds stony as fuck.
