If you're not from the southern United States, you very well may have never seen or heard of it before. So what is this mysterious elixir? Cheerwine is a cherry-flavored soft drink that's been around for more than a century.
The soda was first created in Cook Out's home state of North Carolina way back in While Cheerwine has a long and storied history, it has remained a distinctly Southern drink and is difficult to find outside the region.

Cook Out isn't just a name, it's a way of life for the chain restaurant, which advertises the motto , "Always Fresh, Never Frozen.
In , it opened its meat commissary where burger meat is ground and formed into patties every day. From there, it gets packed onto trucks and delivered fresh to the chain's roughly locations the same day. Once the burger meat arrives at its destination, Cook Out's kitchen staff gets to work. That's our difference and why we're able to employ so many people.
There's no shortcuts. We make our own chili and slaw. We cut our own pickles and onions. We do everything right here. While people of all ages have been known to enjoy devouring a tray of Cook Out's delectable food, the restaurant is a particular favorite of a certain age demographic: millennials.
This shouldn't come as much of a surprise as Cook Out is tailor-made for younger people. It's filling, tasty, and inexpensive. Plus, it's available at nearly all hours of the night.

At the very least, the memes will crack you up. Not only does the milkshake menu include Southern flavors like chocolate cobbler, peach, and fresh watermelon, customers can mix any of the flavors together to make their own concoction.

The weakest section of the main menu is the chicken sandwiches, with dry, bland white meat. They come in four iterations, and I liked the Cajun best simply because the heavy hand of dry seasoning and wet Texas Pete hot sauce made up for the flavor lacking in the chicken itself.
To me a corn dog is more of a main dish than a side, but this effectively lets big eaters double down on entrees for the same price when they make their combos.
