When I worked at Taco Bell, someone ordered an "ice taco" – a wheat tortilla filled with ice, and cheese sprinkled on top. Why hasn't Taco Bell tried to mainstream this???

It also has been spotted testing a biscuit/donut hybrid called “bisnuts”

huh if they're thinking about making something like a luther vandross burger version of a breakfast sandwich that would be right up hardee's alley, though it wouldn't be that different from a mcgriddle really.

I think that you could make non-gross versions of most of the Taco Bell breakfast items at home with basic cooking skills, and they would be far less greasy and overwhelming than what you get at Taco Bell and still be kinda greasy and overwhelming.

'WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?'

Thought of this thread when I listened to this earlier: http://www.marketplace.org/topics/business/chocolate-fried-chicken-taste-test

i'm currently eating root beer float oreos and thinking there could be a whole other thread for snack aisle products

I opened this tub of Limited Edition Pumpkin Pie Spice JIF Whips up and sniffed – decent pumpkin spice aroma! So that’s a win.

surely this cannot be ascribed to human ingenuity, as if it were cooked up in a lab by a poindexter wearing meat goggles

the inspiration here is nature's grandeur itself

the science was in the focus group statistical analysis

“Millennials really are the core of our late-night strategy,” Jennifer Kennedy, Jack’s director of innovation and social engagement, told BurgerBusiness.com in an interview. “Whether they’re studying late or working a night shift they’ve been pivotal to the late-night daypart. So we wanted an instant-win game that appealed to them. We know that Millennials like to make a game of things, whether participating in online video games or through social networks or being the first to do or know or own something. We made Jack’s Munchie Peel simple: You peel; you win.”

“We know Millennials are always looking to try something different,” Innovation Manager Katherine Cerrito told BurgerBusiness.com. “The Chick-n-Tater Melt is the kind of savory product you’re craving at midnight and not necessarily something you’d want for your lunch or dinner. Millennials like to try new things and share experiences on social channels. They can say ‘Look what I have: A chicken sandwich with hashbrowns on top and it’s amazing!’”

that's what you boomers don't understand about us millennials, we like to say "Look what I have: A chicken sandwich with hashbrowns on top and it’s amazing!"

fucking millennials with their munchie peels and hashbrowns thanks obama

millennials are annoying so we wanted to create something really annoying that they could hopefully annoy the world with
