Dough Quiero Talk-O'-Bell Rules 🔔📜[]

The rules of this year's Tournament, as decreed by Commissioner Susser:
- Everyone is here: this is a comprehensive tournament. Drinks are out of the stink, sides are off the sidelines.
- Spice up the night, not the morning: no breakfast items in this year's tournament.
- Is a Pepsi ok?: only drinks exclusive to Taco Bell will be considered, but Pepsi will be considered.
- Yum yum yum: there will be a Yum! Brands All-Star Category in the Tournament, including Pizza Hut, KFC, and The Habit.
- Don't veg out, veg in! (by any beans necessary): any meat or veggie protein is valid on any item.
- If it's seasonable, it's unreasonable: only using the February 2024 menu.
- The spice is not right: the Evan Saucer's Sauce Boss competition was unsanctioned and The Doughboys can use any sauce. However, listeners may only use the Sauce Queen, Hot Sauce Packet, on their own trips to Taco Bell.
- I have a cream: for each group stage, The Doughboys may, but don't have to, pick Jen D'Angelo's Sour Cream of the Crop Award for funniest plausible winner of a round.
- For the end of the list, a twist: Evan Susser can use three Commissioner Cinnamon Twists to increase excitement whenever he sees fit.
Note: These rules don't really apply to this one-off match-up, but Nick does read them for Jamie (at the end of the episode).
Dough Quiero Talk-O'-Bell: Yum! Brands All-Star Game ⭐[]
As per Tournament Rule #4, this episode is a match-up between some of the other chains owned by Yum! Brands (besides Taco Bell).
For the All-Star Game, The Doughboys got two items from each KFC, The Habit, and Pizza Hut. As (ex-)Commissioner Susser ruled before he was sus(s)pended, they had to try the most "Taco Bell-esque" items from each place.
- From KFC, they tried a Blackberry Pepsi and a Famous Bowl.
- From The Habit, they had a Charburger Taco and Tempura Green Beans.
- From Pizza Hut, they ordered the Cinnabon Mini Rolls and an Original Stuffed Crust Cheese Pizza.
The Doughboys immediately eliminated the Blackberry Pepsi for being badly made and sporadically available; everyone enjoyed the Famous Bowl, so it moves on.
From The Habit order, they enjoyed both items, but everyone particularly loved the Tempura Green Beans, so that was the winner.
All three kind of agreed that Pizza Hut sucks, and did not like either item. Mitch compares this decision to choosing between a dog turd and a cat turd. Nick preferred the Cinnabon Mini Rolls, but Jamie and Mitch voted the Original Stuffed Crust Pizza. The Pizza advances.
Next, they decide between the Famous Bowl, Tempura Green Beans, and Original Stuffed Crust Pizza.
