Back by popular demand – “The State of Tacos” or “As the Burrito Turns”

26 03 2008

Have you ever wondered why you always get that taco bell craving at 12:15 at night? The other night (after a rousing game of apples to apples) we were off to taco bell to acquire the ooey gooey cheesy goodness that can only be found within its tasty morsels. We arrive at taco bell and reach the drive thru menu when it becomes apparent that the higher iq employees were already off for the evening (both of them). We had four separate orders (which apparently, even with the wonders of modern computing, is an overwhelming task at 12:15 in the taco bell line) and began to shout at the menu our orders. It seemed that all was well but alas looks can be deceiving. We were ordered to “drive around” and off we went. That is when the day old burritos hit the fan. Apparently they did not know how to separate our orders or were simply confused by the sheer quantity of taco goodness we had ordered. Inevitably our orders took forever (oh yes, please dont forget the taco sauce…..did you say mild…..yes mild……excuse me, did you give us sauce?…..mild?…..yes, mild…..and so on….). In the end most of the food was right on except for my order which consisted of 5 items (not the four that i had ordered) that only slightly resembled the order I had placed. Actually, only one item that I had ordered actually made it into the bag……in fact, one of the items resembled an odd combination of two of the things i had ordered…..a meximelt chili cheese concoction that was tasty but odd looking (and where on earth did the crunchwrap supreme come from??).

 

I guess what I am saying is that, while taco bell distributes some tasty morsels of food, there were no rocket scientists on staff on Saturday night…..they must have all gone home for the evening.
