MEAT MEAT MEAT. This was the medium sized sandwich

Get a little flirty with the big black woman on the mic and you might go give with more roast beef then you can handle

I will say that sandwich was right around when they opened, but I've also gone ten minutes before closing and it was horrible.

It's rare that I go to any restaurant these days and leave satisfied. Quality in both food and service everywhere has gone so far downhill where I am that it's easier/better to just cook at home. Yet prices are sky high and demand is still crazy (drive thru traffic at any fast food is constant, 40 minute wait minimum at just about any place any time), so there's no incentive to do better.

That sandwich looks legit :doe: Now I'm hungry.

I don't think I've been to Taco Bell since I went with Dan because of the wait. There's only ever one person making food, and at least two people knocking shit over in the kitchen and then they lose all motor skills when it comes to pick it back up. You make an order in the drive through then wait inside for 20 minutes for your food

My biggest gripe with taco bell is their flaccid chalupas. They used to be fried to an unhealthy but delectable crisp. Now its just a floppy boring shell. I had some last week for old times sake (I used to grab TB when doing full car work days) and much disappoint.

I miss Taco Bell a lot. With fast food going so far downhill, haven't even tried it in ages.

Same. And this is what concerns me about trying TB again...

I'm too old for that. I'm looking for quick lunch food or the like, which fast food used to do a decent job of.

The safest (quality wise anyway) fast food these days, IMO, is a local taqueria or a Middle Eastern joint for a shawarma or kefta wrap.
:wrong:

I agree with you, we have great shawarma places in places that I frequent. If they're busy, the freshness and quality is the best.

Initial thought is go grab a lean-ish steak like a petite sirloin or filet mignon and make a box of mac and cheese with some salad and fruit on the side.

Had considered going full :fatty: and crushing some fast food though. We have some options up here close by that I haven’t had in years like A&W, Arby’s, there’s a local/regional chain called Victorico’s for Mexican food that is :notbad: either.
I know I'm late but I've had Arby's twice in the last 10 days and it's hit so hard both times.
That may be the play next Sunday. Last time I had it they had just come out with those little sliders and I ordered one of each and they were all bomb. Probably do that again and then add in a big Montana or the smokehouse brisket sando or something.

Still figuring out the heat settings on this electric stove top, so both steaks were a little over. Flavor was nice, but a tad dried out. Bummer. Mac and cheese was good as always though. Skipped the salad, but had some pineapple to kick the meal off and help the :meat: digest. I could fucking live on red meat and pineapple.

I find James Earl Jones saying "WE HAVE THE MEATS" to be compelling theater. The only time I have gotten food poisoning was at Wendy/s
:ohdang: I don't think I've seen ads with James Earl Jones (or maybe I just didn't know it). :notbad:
He's just the voice. The ads just show the (oversized, as you note) sandwiches.
