You Can Get Cozy with Your Own Fallout Food Tie-Ins

By Max Ximenez

There are few things more restorative than a chicken dinner; and perhaps one of them might be the vaunted “Stimpak” of the Fallout franchise. For a limited time, both can be found at Dave’s Hot Chicken as part of their promotional packaged combo meal of your choice of ten pieces of Dave’s signature “saucy bites” of fried chicken or a chicken slider sandwich, plus ranch dressing, seasoned fries and a Stimpak toy of your very own!

While one might be tempted to use the included Stimpak toy to apply sauce to one’s meal, your reporter’s results resembled the aftermath of a VATS headshot with the “Bloody Mess” perk. Be careful with Dave’s titular sauce, a delectable remoulade that pairs perfectly with spicy chicken and may be more addictive than Jet, Buffout and Mentats combined!

And while you’re already feasting on the finest Fallout fare, why not wash it down with Jones Soda’s Vault-Tec Supply package; a 12-pack of three different flavors of Fallout-themed soda that’s sure to irradiate the tastebuds (available at your local Costco). Now you too can experience the thrill of chugging down a Sunset Sarsparilla on the hunt for a starred bottlecap, feel the futuristic zing of the berry lemonade Nuka-Cola Quantum, or slip into the syrupy embrace of a Nuka-Grape grape-flavored cola.

The folks at Jones know that Fallout fans love to build up a stash of bottlecaps, so not only do they include a Vault-Tec themed bottle opener in the package, but they’ve thrown in some extra themed bottlecaps for good measure, like any good side-quest reward!
