eegee's April Fools Joke

eegee's has always been known for playing a prank on us for April Fools! This year they came out with a fake line of sweets using their ingredients.

The sweets include a Snickers like Grinder Bar, a Lettuce Fizzy Pop which is a mini head of lettuce covered in pop rocks and Jaw Breaker filled with Ranch called a Ranch Blaster.

Cute prank.

Bulk Ranch Purchases!!!

UPDATE: As of Jan 1, 2017, you are no longer available to purchase ranch or buffalo ranch bottles from the stores.

--
We’ve seen the question over and over again. Can you buy eegee’s ranch? We decided to investigate the question. 

The answer is yes! You can purchase both the regular eegee’s ranch and the buffalo ranch from eegees. Although you can’t do it at any of the stores, all you need to do is call their catering department and boom you've got your buffalo ranch.

You can also purchase the ranch in different sizes which is totally awesome! Dreams are just coming true all over the place :). You can purchase both ranches in either a gallon or quart.

The catering number is (520) 889-4066 and they are located at 3360 E. Ajo, West of Palo Verde. eegees said that they can also have the ranch delivered to one of their stores which makes it so much more convenient!

Here are the costs for their ranches:

Ranch Dressing:

Gallon                $15.24

Quart                 $  4.22

Buffalo Ranch Dressing:

Gallon                $16.57

Quart                 $  4.56

Now go forth and buy all that ranch dressing and never have FOMO when you run out of your last ranch cup!!

Watermelon Pineapple Splash

We know this was announced a few days ago but, hey, we were on vacay so we’re getting to it now!

Looks like the new flavor came out and it’s Watermelon Pineapple. Not just Watermelon Pineapple, but Watermelon Pineapple Splash. Oooooh, doesn’t that make it so much fancier! The look of the artwork is kind of retro and oh so clever. They put a pineapple top on a watermelon .

Joking aside; on the images, the flavor is pretty amazing. I’m not sure that I would have guessed the two flavors on my own if I were blind tested but it definitely has a tropical flavor to it. We’re predicting that this flavor will, obviously, be a hit. 

It’s kind of a no-brainer. Watermelon is by far the favorite flavor of all the eegee flavors. This is also the first time they’ve mixed watermelon with anything! So that’s exciting. Also, to any fans concerned with how radioactive the eegee flavors have been looking lately, don’t worry they don’t look like that in real life! Our suggestion, make a watermelon flavor each month if you want to strike it rich!

Check out some of the fans trying out the new flavors.

Eegee's New January Flavor of the Month

We recently got an email from, who we are assuming is, eegee's advertising agency up in Phoenix. We were informed that eegee's is in fact coming out with a new flavor again this January.

Last year we had Red Licorice. This was somewhat of a controversy. A lot of people tried it, tweeted about it and at the end of the day it was a bit of a bust as a flavor.

As for the new flavor this new year, if it is in fact a new flavor, those hoping Galactic Grape or Banana Blush would come back are going to be sadly disappointed.

Do you think it's going to be a fruit flavor? or something random like Red Licorice? There are a few fruits that eegee's doesn't have in its arsenal including:

1. Passion Fruit
2. Kiwi
3. Pineapple by itself
4. Blueberry by itself
5. Grapefruit
6. Apricot
7. Guava
8. Plum
9. Papaya
10. Cranberry

Eegee's has been known for mixing flavors with berries, pineapple and lemon/lime. They also do a hodgepodge mashup to make their Jungle Juice. There are currently seven flavor mixes:
Cherry Pineapple (fun fact: a fan requested this to be made and so many people agreed, it came to life.)

1. Orange Pineapple
2. Blueberry Lemon
3. Cherry Limeade
4. Holly Berry
5. Jungle Juice
6. Peach N Berry

It's about time for a mix of flavors again, it's been too long. Could the new flavor be a mix of current flavors they already have? If the new January flavor is a mix of flavors, here are some flavors we think would mix the best:

1. Mango Pineapple
2. Apple Grape
3. Pineapple Watermelon
4. Strawberry Banana
5. Pomegranate Black Raspberry
6. Raspberry Lemonade

Eegee's could also throw everyone for a loop as they did back in January of 2015. Here are some flavors we think they could come out with that are not fruit related.

1. Cola
2. Popcorn
3. Pie (Pumpkin, Pecan)
4. Chocolate Mousse 
5. Love Potion No. 9
6. Mexican Hot Chocolate 

Let us know in the comments what you think the next flavor of the month is going to be. Also, if you work for eegee's and know any of the fun secrets shoot us an email at eegeeslove@gmail.com. All names are kept confidential.

If a new flavor doesn't excite you, you can order your own favorite flavor on the eegee's special order website. Here are the flavors you can order from eegee's:

1. Rodeo Root Beer
2. Lucky Lime
3. Fruit Splash
4. Blueberry Lemon
5. Galactic Grape
6. Jungle Juice
7. Cherry Cider
8. Pomegranate Blast
9. Holly Berry
10. Tangerine Breeze
11. Chunks O' Cherry
12. Cherry Pineapple
13. Orange Pineapple
14. Orange Dream
15. Mango Tango
16. Black Raspberry
17. Cherry Limeade
18. Blueberry Lemon
19. Banana Blush
20. Peach n Berry
21. Red Licorice
22. Watermelon

Netflix & Chill to Eegee's & Brain Chill

eegee's is the latest brand to jump on the Netflix and Chill bandwagon and we want to know what you think. Is it harmless fun, or a classless trend you expect eegee's to be better than? There seem to be a lot of people who have an opinion on this. 

If you don't know about Netflix and Chill, it's code for hooking up, banging, bumping uglies etc. 

eegee's is a family establishment yes. They want Moms to bring their children in and grab lunch or dinner. Though, eegee's also has a college demographic they need to cater to. This creates a bit of a clash, but where do you draw the line? 

Let's get serious for a minute. This post was posted on twitter and 36% of twitter users are under 18. While teen pregnancy is down across America, Arizona teen pregnancy rates are higher than the national average. This is why some people are having issue with brands bringing Netflix and chill into their marketing. 

Our blog is called eegee's love for a reason. We love eegee's, you love eegee's. So, we want to know what you think. Sound off in our poll below, or if you feel more passionate about the matter you can contact eegee's directly here.

Should eegee's be using sex memes in their campaigns aimed at kids?

Everyone knows sex sells. You're taking things too seriously.

Ehh, I don't think Netflix and Chill is harmful. Do your thing eegee's.

It's irresponsible eegee's, stick to your products and leave sex out of it.

I am appalled. eegee's you should be more responsible.

Meet the Tucson Taste Testers Covering November Featured Items

We found these two guys who have started reviewing eegee's featured items. We love this idea. It is a great way for you the consumers to tell eegee's how you are liking what they are doing.

A moment for honesty, the guys need to do their reviews at the beginning of the month so people can go try the food too. Featured items are gone at the end of the month, we don't want to have to wait a year to try the food you're reviewing.

With that being said, check out their latest video reviewing November's featured items.

SANDWICH

• Such a good call on the simplification of the Flamin' Hot Chicken Sandwich or the "Restrained Version."
• Appreciation for the "rather good Buffalo Ranch"
• You can add cheese for 30¢

BUFFALO RANCH FRIES

• "Buffalo Ranch Fries are America's poutine," we'll roll with you on that one. 
• Also, who wouldn't want a bucket of blue cheese crumbles? 
• Where does eegee's blue cheese come from? This is something we should find out. 

FLAVOR OF THE MONTH

• Cherry Cider as the Flavor of the Month to match the November Fall concept.
  Makes sense, since it is fall. 
• There are four eegee's flavors that include cherry in them. We think Cherry Limeade is better than Cherry Cider, though we are glad you are enjoying it. 
• Also, we Googled cider for you, here's the definition, "an unfermented drink made by crushing fruit, typically apples." And the difference between juice and cider is, "Apple juice and apple cider are both fruit beverages made from apples, but there is a difference between the two. Fresh cider is raw apple juice that has not undergone a filtration process to remove coarse particles of pulp or sediment. It takes about one-third of a bushel to make a gallon of cider." You're welcome.

SWEET HEAT COOKIE

• The comment about the Sweet Heat Cookie is completely valid, it is Mexican Hot Cholocate Flavored. I wish we could give you a prize. 

Can't wait to see how you guys feel about this month's Featured Item the Sausage N Peppers Sandwich. Get yourself to eegee's and make that video.
