On this blue-cheese drenched episode of Two Fat Guys Eat, we're in the midst of football season and we're talking about one of the most popular tailgating foods, the Buffalo wing! Colin is concerned that this episode will cost him his Buffalo card (he thinks bone-in wings are an ineffecient way to enjoy chicken). Brian and Sean share other configuations of the buffalo chicken flavor that Colin might try and enjoy more. Colin and Brian also try Buffalo Pepsi (Josh Allen made us do it).

On this brand-confused episode of Two Fat Guys Eat, we ravenously tear into a batch of Lay's Kettle Cooked "Ruffles All-Dressed" Potato Chips. We discuss how they've taken the best chip preparation and the best chip flavor (Yeah, that's right, I said it! Fight me.) and make something magical. We also discuss our confusion at why Frito-Lay's made this extra long product name...brand name inside a brand name? BRANDCEPTION.
