Like you needed another reason for that Blizzard

I don’t like to plug work on TRW, but today is a sweet exception.

Visit a Dairy Queen location near you today and buy a Blizzard. Why? Because you deserve a treat, ice cream and candy is nature’s perfect union and because August 12 is Miracle Treat Day. Proceeds from every Blizzard sold at Dairy Queen locations across Canada will benefit the Children’s Miracle Network, who raise millions of dollars for children’s hospitals in North America. So whether you’re out to help kids at Seattle Children’s Hospital, British Columbia’s Children’s Hospital, CHOP, CHEO, KGH or our beloved Sick Kids, tell Dr. Atkins to shove it and have a blizzard, or two, or three…

  1. Sadly (though happily for my love handles), I have trouble finding Dairy Queens in Toronto. Is this just running this week or for the rest of the summer? I’m always glad for an excuse.

  2. It’s just for today, alas. I know there’s one at the Eaton centre…

  3. Whatever you do, don’t read this PDF of the DQ Soft Serve™ nutritional value until after you’ve had your feel-good-for-charity Blizzard.

    And remember: your impending obesity and congestive heart failure are for the kids, dammit!
