You know, the one where we asked our guests to draw their best patriotic doodles on the backs of their sandwich bags to say thanks to our troops serving overseas? Well, we finally gathered up all of the "flagged bags"--aren't they snazzy?--and stuffed them full of cookies, brownies, and Wich Krispies. Also included in each bag was a letter from chief vibe officer Jeff Sinelli, thanking them for their bravery and service. (Aw.) Then we boxed up the bags, dropped off the packages at the post office, and blew them a little kiss goodbye. </p><p>So how did we know where to send the care packages?

Last month we opened three new stores: Coralville, Iowa; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Springfield, Missouri. Then, just yesterday, we opened our first store in Nevada, in Las Vegas. Phew! Now we'd like to welcome the Mt. Juliet store to the Which Wich family. The Mt. Juliet Which Wich is located at 401 S. Mt. Juliet Rd., Ste. 345, in the Providence Marketplace shopping center. The store is open Monday-Saturday, 10 am-9 pm, and Sunday, noon-6 pm. It's the fifth Which Wich in the greater Nashville area.

(Side note: bacon runs a close second.) So what better way to dress up your wich than with slices of fresh avocado? You can add avocado to any wich for just $1, or you could try one of these tasty creations: California Roll (crab salad + cucumber + avocado), Chicken Cali-Italiano (chicken pesto + Parmesan + avocado), or Buffalo Chicken & Avocado (buffalo chicken + avocado). Heck, try all three. Better yet, let us know your favorite wich + avocado.<br /><br /><div></div>Which Wich?http://www.blogger.com/profile/06380061293627247149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-846165785901322917.post-88230491250946065852010-08-04T07:42:00.002-05:002010-08-05T08:57:28.249-05:00Which Wich Opens in Las Vegas, Nevada<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TFrDOVuqcWI/AAAAAAAAAtg/Q025N8rDRk4/s1600/vegas-450.gif"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 311px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5501924545904931170" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TFrDOVuqcWI/AAAAAAAAAtg/Q025N8rDRk4/s400/vegas-450.gif" /></a><br /><div>Vegas, baby!

We’re opening new stores—and spreading the vibe—all over the country. Charlotte, North Carolina, is getting its first Which Wich (1600 E. Woodlawn Rd., Ste. 260), in the Park Town Village Shopping Center (above), just a five-minute drive from SouthPark, Myers Park, and Dilworth. A second Which Wich is opening in Springfield, Missouri (1155 E. Battlefield St.), just three miles down the road from the first, near St. John and Cox South hospitals. Coralville, Iowa, is also getting a Which Wich (925 25th Ave.), so folks in the Iowa City area can get their Wicked on at two convenient locations.Which Wich?http://www.blogger.com/profile/06380061293627247149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-846165785901322917.post-68965832627100340832010-07-12T12:45:00.003-05:002010-07-13T15:56:58.071-05:00Congratulations to the Winners of the First-ever Flag Your Bag Contest<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDu3YMw_VEI/AAAAAAAAAsE/1i0qy1zsxfQ/s1600/flag+your+bags.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 392px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 383px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493185796879897666" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDu3YMw_VEI/AAAAAAAAAsE/1i0qy1zsxfQ/s400/flag+your+bags.jpg" /></a><br /><div>The “likes” are in, and congratulations are in order for Caroline Kohler Radtke, Dan Gremminger, and Bhavna Sharma, who came in first, second, and third in the inaugural <a href="http://www.facebook.com/whichwich?v=app_4949752878"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">Which Wich Flag Your Bag</span></a> contest. (Pictured, left to right: Caroline, Bhavna, and Dan.) Grand prize winner Caroline, a graphic designer by trade, says she loved this contest because it got her back to her roots: drawing with pencils, pens, markers, chalk, and, of course, Sharpies! She says the design popped into her head one day while she was running. “I rely on my running for two things,” she says. “My sanity and good design ideas.”</div><div></div><div>For the Which Wich Flag Your Bag contest, guests were asked to draw their best patriotic doodles on the backs of their sandwich bags and upload pictures of the bags to our Facebook wall. We were blown away by the quality and creativity of the submissions! The competition was fierce, but it was all for a good cause (and we’re not just talking about gift cards, people): to say thank you to the U.S. troops who protect our freedom every day. The winning bags—and all others gathered from our more than 100 stores—will be sent overseas in a care package filled with cookies, brownies, and Wich Krispies. Thank you to all of the “artists” who participated and to those of you who voted. And best wiches to the troops!</div>Which Wich?http://www.blogger.com/profile/06380061293627247149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-846165785901322917.post-88690915756740097892010-07-09T11:15:00.000-05:002010-07-09T14:46:11.856-05:00Coca-Cola Freestyle Debuts at the Downtown Dallas Which Wich<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDYbuZx7guI/AAAAAAAAArk/cFnpQC728F0/s1600/freestyle-400.gif"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 217px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491607279633138402" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDYbuZx7guI/AAAAAAAAArk/cFnpQC728F0/s400/freestyle-400.gif" /></a><br />Soda fans are in a dither over the new <a href="http://www.facebook.com/cocacolafreestyle"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">Coca-Cola Freestyle</span></a> touch-screen fountain dispensers, which <a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/bus/stories/DN-sodadispenser_24bus.State.Edition1.46645e9.html"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">debuted in Dallas</span></a> last month. The folks at Coca-Cola are calling this the soda fountain of the future, and it's easy to see why: the machine dispenses more than 100 regular and low-calorie beverage brands, some of which aren't available anywhere else in the United States except on the Freestyle. Among the brands represented are Coca-Cola (duh), Vault, Dasani, Hi-C, Powerade, Minute Maid, Fanta, Pibb, and Barq's. Sure, you could go ahead and drink just one--say, a Vault Red Blitz or Caffeine-free Raspberry Diet Coke--but just imagine the trillions of suicide combinations available at the push of a button! The Freestyle is a perfect match for Which Wich, where customization rules. So come see us in downtown Dallas to create your own killer combo--which soda would you pair with a Wicked?--or simply customize your sandwich <em>and</em> your soda.Which Wich?http://www.blogger.com/profile/06380061293627247149noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-846165785901322917.post-24376284041546221662010-07-08T15:01:00.005-05:002010-07-09T15:18:21.672-05:00Last Chance To Flag Your Bag<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDeBQFsJQ7I/AAAAAAAAAr8/ysKhs1rnhfM/s1600/ad.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 297px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492000384006833074" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_enpXQYGhUMk/TDeBQFsJQ7I/AAAAAAAAAr8/ysKhs1rnhfM/s400/ad.jpg" /></a><br /><div>By now you've heard about the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/whichwich#!/whichwich?v=app_4949752878"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">Flag Your Bag contest</span></a>.

On January 6, a group of wich lovers in D'Iberville, Mississippi, launched a <a href="http://vbaudoin.wordpress.com/tag/which-wich/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">Which Wich tournament</span></a> to determine which wich is the best. After many weeks of eating and <a href="http://whichwich.tumblr.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">thorough documentation</span></a>, the club defeated fellow finalist pork tenderloin on July 7. One of the team's bloggers, Vincent, had this to say about the winner: "The club's turkey, ham, and bacon form a sturdy meat tripod upon which to build the perfect sandwich. This Which Wich Wednesday, one team of judges went with avocado, honey mustard, and spicy mayo, while another put its faith in a generous helping of coleslaw. Either way it was a success."</div><br /><div>But here's what America really wants to know: is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zach_Galifianakis"><span style="color:#ffcc00;">Zach Galifianakis</span></a> living in D'Iberville? If not, it's surely his doppelganger. But we digress. A special thanks to the dedicated Which Wich tournament participants.
