New fast food discussion/review thread

OK OOT, it's been a while since we had a devoted fast food thread around here and I think it's time we had a new one.

Taco Bell Beefy Potato Loaded Griller.


by JustASpectator m

Taco Bell Beefy Potato Loaded Griller.

It's beefy, it's loaded, it's grilling. Literally impossible not to buy and eat this thing.

Now if it's a tv show and not food, you better watch it before you eat it.


Did Habit last night. Fries perfect. Double char decent. Not as good as previous times (and this was after golf so typically things are like - 3.5x better).

The cucumber limeade, and strawberry limeades were shockingly good. Massive sugar bombs - but about as good as it gets after golf.


regarding hot dogs

the nathan's at the QFC (you may know it as kroger) has hot dogs avail at the deli a few days a week.

I like these because I prefer my dogs to be milder, nice thickness at a good inch I'd say, with solid texture and snap. MY preferred dog side is popcorn, which is one reason I don't need the dog to be overly salty.

Unfortunately the consumer versions in the cold case, you know, the cold packs of live 4-8 dogs, was about 20% overboard in terms of saltiness. Oh what a precarious balance!

my new nugget tech

nuke 4x mcd nugs until they are warm, 30 sec
toss them in the air frier set to 400

wait a minute or so until nugs are warmed and slightly crispy; turn off AF and wait. afte a few minutes the better texture/crunch will develop

edit: i do love onion on dogs. havent tried the cheese though


Hit the King for a quickie weekend b'fast. Pretty tasty, about $7.



My normal Sunday morning walk takes me by Five Guys. There's a dumpster out back, and a bunch of equipment out front.

Happened to see a worker coming out, asked if they were closing. He said they're doing a remodel, should take four days.

Seems like a quick turnaround for a remodel. Not sure how extensive it will be. I'd guess this location has been open ~5-7 years.

The way this story started I was fully expecting you to find uneaten food by the dumpster.

Nabbing a garlic steak fries and mini taco salad from The Bell. OG TB runs still rule.

Today's TB drop was a $1 Burrito Supreme. I remember eating them as a teenager. Was great. (But usually way overpriced)

Next week's drop is a $1 Nacho Bell Grande.

Those garlic steak fries were in the $.79 group, right?

Bring back the $.59/$.79/$.99 menu!


Nah I think like 6 bux.

Nah. If there were, I think the homeless guy who is frequently around would've grabbed it.

Had nothing ready for dinner last night. Also had a coupon for IHOP. Thought about going up there to try a burger.

On the way, however, I decided to visit the redhead instead (they share a parking lot, so I was walking right by). Baconator meal pretty good; the bacon a bit chewy, but it was tasty and quite filling; even avoiding the upsell, I was full the entire night and into this morning. $14 and change out the door.


McD took away BOGO $1 breakfast sandwich app offer. Probably was using this 1-2x a week. No more reason to visit mcds now, based on current offers
