sources including Newsweek,
the Dairy Queen® brand is expanding the
traditional lunch hour by serving up the $5 Buck Lunch value menu all
day, every day.
“The 9-to-5 workday is a thing of the past, and the traditional midday
lunch hour is vanishing,” says Barry Westrum, executive vice president
of Marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation (ADQ). “It’s time to
give all Americans the opportunity to enjoy the best lunch value meal on
their time. Served with a world-famous DQ Sundae, we have the
sweetest invitation to enjoy the $5 Buck Lunch value meal in the
afternoon, evening or late night.”
Launched in 2013, it’s a generous value meal offering Fans the choice of
the 3-Piece Chicken Strip or Deluxe Cheeseburger entrée served with
crispy fries and a 21 oz. beverage, finished off with a world-famous DQ
Sundae. Additionally, the DQ brand continually innovates the
$5 Buck Lunch value meal adding limited time, premium entrée offerings
