Dairy Queen Rolls Out New Menu Items for 75th Anniversary

'DQ, that's what I like about Texas!' If you're a Dairy Queen addict, get ready to try some new stuff.

This is actually the largest menu additions at one time to the Dairy Queen menu in the company's 75 year history. I guess when you celebrate a 75th anniversary, it's go big or go home. The company is coming out with nine new menu items. I haven't eaten lunch yet, so all of these sound delicious to me.

Dairy Queen is introducing hot desserts, snack melts, and artisan-style sandwiches in a new line called DQ Bakes. The hot desserts will be served à la mode with Dairy Queen vanilla soft serve and come in triple chocolate brownie, apple tart, and fudge-stuffed chocolate chip cookie varieties.

Snack melts are Dairy Queen’s take on snack wraps, and are available in Buffalo chicken, chicken bacon BBQ, and chicken quesadilla. The sandwiches will feature chicken bacon ranch, chicken mozzarella, and turkey BLT options.

Barry Westrum, executive vice president of marketing for the American Dairy Queen Corporation, said in the press release that these new menu items are a game-changer for the brand. “We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our actual 75th anniversary with our fans, as well as set us up for the next 75 years,” Westrum said.

The items are available now at all Dairy Queen locations. Great, now I want a chocolate chip cookie dough blizzard.
