I've never been to this legendary Taco Bell in Chicago. How sad!

Frito-Lay announced the release of Taco Bell Doritos, which will taste like Taco Bell Doritos Loco tacos, which taste like Doritos.

Scientists Warn That Taco Bell Doritos Could Possibly Create A Supermassive 'Taco Bell Black Hole,' Swallowing Up The Entire Earth

Error: Taco recursion too deep. Stack overflow.

(From that yelp review)

"This place is taco heaven with workers that are "nacho" run of the mill crappy fast food employees."

Guilty lol.

Sandwich with fried chicken as the bun? Didn't Carl's Jr already do that? Or is that deep-fried bread?

nickn, Thursday, 14 February 2013 02:33 (thirteen years ago)

KFC did the Double Down, although this appears to be a flakier breading

mh, Thursday, 14 February 2013 02:35 (thirteen years ago)

Oh right, KFC. I'll bet the real ones aren't so flaky. It kind of qualifies as trypophobic / trypophilic.

I saw a thing on nat geo or somewhere about a guy covered in benign growths that looked exactly like that

You guys don't like mint ice cream? Huh

Not unless you put some chocolate in it

UM HELLO

I just searched for Shamrock Shake to talk about how excited I am that it's that time of year again. SHAMROCK SHAKES ARE DELICIOUS YOU WEIRDOS.

I had one last week I felt mugged

乒乓, Friday, 8 March 2013 02:12 (thirteen years ago)

They can vary from place to place. I mean, I have like one maybe two a year but some are amazing and others? Not as amazing. I'm sorry you had a disappointing shake experience.

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 21 March 2013 21:03 (thirteen years ago)

I clicked on the link and one of the banner ads was...

Cut 9 pounds of stomach fat every week by using this 1 weird old tip

In this case, that 'weird old tip' would be 'Don't eat the new sausage double beef burger at McDonald's China and you'll avoid injesting 9lb of meat'.

Half of these sound like rappers. (snoball), Thursday, 21 March 2013 21:16 (thirteen years ago)

My recent coworkers roam the hallways on Friday mornings, the days most likely to have donuts or assorted pastries in common areas. These beasts would not survive the hunt.

Damn that looks good.

these are some of the scariest looking pictures of food i've ever seen.

OTM whoever posted Oscar the Grounch. these foods look like they're going to start talking to me. or that they're made of plastic.

i've had a double-down sandwich before but the way it looks in that video still is so creepy.

billstevejim, Sunday, 5 May 2013 14:55 (thirteen years ago)

deep inside that taco

mh, Sunday, 5 May 2013 15:32 (thirteen years ago)

Well, I'm sure glad they finally figured out how to do the dt, cuz that thing is awesome.
