Do they not show calories in the app anymore?

I remember about 2 weeks ago when I was preparing what I wanted to order through the app (I like to know the price beforehand) and it also showed the calories as well as price. I found it useful to know. But it’s not there anymore

Weirdest rule/ thing to happen to you while working there!

My last day working there is today! I’d like to know any other people’s stories who have worked/ work there! One of the weirdest rules we had is we weren’t supposed to use gloves and could only wash our hands hourly. We could only use ONE glove when getting food and we were supposed to save it throughout the shift. This is gross considering blending goy everywhere and if we weren’t doing orders we were supposed to be cleaning. Idk if chemicals and blizzards rlly mix well. Safe to say NOBODY followed this rule and after about a week it was gone. I only worked there for 4 months so nothing crazy happened, there was a person though who started throwing change underneath tables and came up to me on my break to ask for my ID so they could get a hotel. Why? Idk I’m underage so 🫡 I don’t think I could help even if I wanted to.

Is $17.35 for one large combo correct?

I live in Kansas. Went to the local DQ, got a double bacon ranch combo with large fry and drink and it came to $17.35. I thought maybe the employee saw 17 instead of 12, but no. I get my receipt and it was damn near $5 for a couple more fries than a small extra and 20 extra ounces of soda. Did they ring this up incorrectly or is this the end of me going to dairy queen?

Does anyone know why the cherry dip isnt in Canada?

Recently came to Canada from the us, and I was disappointed to see that they didn't have the cherry dip here (NB). It's my absolute favorite. Even the dilly bar options only have chocolate. Any idea why that is, or if its a flavor that will come back?

Blizzard pricing

Just out of curiosity how much are blizzards at your location(s)? Small at my store is $6.20, medium is $7.06, and a large is $8 something, I can’t remember.

Is it against company policy to serve a freshly made Cupcake???

Just went to DQ and ordered, “could I please have two cupcakes and could you please make them fresh”. The person at the speaker told me no, they can’t. I said oh.. I’ve gotten them from here before without an issue (true I have multiple times). They relent and say they will and I pull to the window where I am met by the GENERAL MANAGER demanding I tell him WHO made me the fresh cupcake. I said I have no idea who made it, it was probably a few months ago. He said that it is against company policy to serve a fresh cupcake and that I need to order it as a sundae and say I want “half chocolate, fudge, crumble, vanilla and frosting”. I say what’s the difference if I order as a fresh cupcake or that if it is the same thing?? I said I get them from town over I can just keep going there I dont want to get him in trouble. He says someone from corporate(?) is coming to shadow two of his shifts soon. He says no, no please come back here and you can order it here and I said ok, and how can I order it here? He says to order it how I just ordered it, a cupcake fresh. I am literally so confused and think this dude was yanking my chain. Plz I need the real inside info. Is the GM getting fired if corporate finds out I am being served unfrozen cupcakes. Dear lort.

**Edit: well thanks everyone for downvoting me and literally NOT answering the question. IS IT AGAINST COMPANY POLICY TO MAKE A FRESH CUPCAKE? Sounds like the answer is NO. Some of you just don’t want to do it it sounds like!

my beloved red velvet blizzard, where are you😭

hi all! i am a college student here in the USA, specifically i go to purdue which is located in indiana (midwest). i went to dairy queen yesterday bc i saw on the app the red velvet blizzard was back and i missed it last year since it was a “while supplies lasts.” anyways, at both dairy queens around purdue, they said they won’t be having the red velvet blizzard due to “factory issues.” does anyone know anything more about my beloved blizzard?

..Should I Work Here?

So, I recently lost my job, it’s been about 2 weeks now. I have been applying at jobs that I am interested in, but this time of year it’s just hard to find companies that need help. However, I saw that my local DQ grill & chill was looking for a kitchen team member.. I’ve never worked at DQ before, but so far DQ has been the only place to call me for an interview… Which I did schedule.. But i just want to know what everyone thinks about the situation .. I am 27 years old.. Should this be a job i pursue as a 27 year old dude? I know I can do the job… i have more kitchen/cooking experience than anything.. I need someone’s opinion… I’m a firm believer of a job is a job.. but i don’t want to feel worthless everyday while i’m doing my job. Thanks!

Halloween and Easter themed blizzards

I'm really surprised there aren't any. I'd love a mini egg blizzard or creme egg blizzard or similar for Easter and something Halloween themed.

Am I alone or are pretzels sticks a huge pain

I hate when people order pretzel sticks. Especially during a rush. I have to stop what I'm doing, prep the merrychef tray, grab the pretzels, butter and salt, then prep the queso and pretzel cup. It sucks how many steps there are compared to all the other stuff.

choco-covered Drumstick® pieces

When I used to work at dairy queen we had the drumstick blizzard as a special that summer and I remember being obsessed with the drumstick pieces. Is there a way to find the DQ provider or name or something to where i can buy them in bulk or independently??

Cherry shake

Hi Dairy Queen employees, is it true that ordering single flavor shakes such as a cherry shake is annoying to you?

Customers with fetishes

Had one order a large cookie dough but with extra. Not too odd but it was the “so I choke on it” that sent me 💀

Standing Warmer for deliveries?

This is a long shot but I swear the DQ hub released information about a standing warmer for to-go orders and deliveries to keep them warm. ( It kind of looked like a cake freezer but it was for warming instead ) I can't find it anywhere, but we're thinking about doing catering orders so if anyone knows what this product is called can you please let me know.

Funny

I was working today. Customer came in with his four kids, and they all wanted different things so he started by asking his first kid what he wanted and he, the kids said skor brownie confection and he replied back to me by saying skor brownie perfection, which was kind of funny and then his second kid said he wants Reese‘s pieces cookie dough. You know what he said. He said he wanted a Reese‘s penis cookie dough . It was funny.

Don't think this was supposed to be in my blizzard

About halfway through my blizzard I found this. Luckily I noticed it in the spoon before it went into my mount.

Bring Back the Crunch Cone

I’m in the western half of the United States and the DQs near me no longer have the crunch cone. If anyone at DQ can read this PLEASE MAKE THE CRUNCH CONE A PERMANENT ITEM. IT IS DIABOLICALLY DELICIOUS. My family and I went at least weekly to get crunch cones and now we don’t go to DQ at all. Please make my dreams a reality.
