Posted By: remaction Savor that burrito - 09/30/22
I went into Taco Bell in Reedsburg, WI for a quick meal as I had to pick my wife up at 6:30.
There was one person in line in front of me. That should have left me 30 minutes to peruse the next door gun store.
I entered at 5:45, they took the order from the guy in front of me at about 5:50. (warning sign 1)
They took my order of 1 burrito at 6:02. (warning sign 2)
I received my burrito at 6:31
I was about out of my mind, I know my face was red hot at about 20 minutes in, but I tried to keep my cool. It actually got to be funny later on as I had to stay just to see how long this burrito would take.
There were about 4 teenagers and 1 adult working, the kids kept walking around, looking up at the monitor but not accomplishing anything.
I had to savor that burrito as it must have been very carefully prepared.

We are f**cked as a society...there is way too much free money floating around.

was at a Wendy's 2 weeks ago, guy was there when I walked in, ordered his meal on their app.

I got my food, ate it and was ready to leave before he ever got his food

My son was with me, I told him - watch this guy, he is about to lose his schit any minute now.

He was actually pretty calm about it, but he let them know they need to get their schit together.

I read a word for word meeting from a Blimpy Sub Sandwich? franchise owners, CEO telling the owners how things have drastically changed in the past few years.
Blimpy sends young [spies] [employee] into the stores acting as a new hire, usually a cute young female. She talks to the employees, they tell her how they plot to run customers off so they don't have to work much. They drag ass, mess up orders, ++ hoping the person never comes back.
Biggest problem is Phones, they're addicted to them and want to be paid to stand around and I-Phone on TikTak instagram, while doing as little as possible.
CEO, told the owners, we're now in a very different time and place and it's not going to get better.

The last one I ordered was in Madison. Somehow, they had it to me before I walked away from the counter. The guy at the register may have been a bit slow giving me my change.
In the half hour wait, I did a lot of thinking about the state of our workforce and the economy as a whole.

We need to go back to the old days old ways, some sag-pant punk stumbling around not working got the piss smacked out of him.
Drag them to the bathroom and give them three Swirlys face down in the toilet, then tell them - now get busy boy/girl.

I’m curious. Where is all this “free money” everyone here talks about all the time?
Posted By: remaction Re: Savor that burrito - 09/30/22
Chesterwy,
For example, the guy in front of me last night, while waiting for our food, told me his friend gets "Foodshare" (food stamps). He had been getting $450/month. During covid, they increased the amount, and still are, by $750 per month! He now gets $1,200/month for food from the gov! I don't know anything about this program, but assume he must have a family of 3 or 4.

I had a conversation recently with a Wendy’s District Mgr.

She used to be an employee when I was 16 yrs old working there. Now she has 38 stores.

Informed her of my very own 28 min wait at the drive thru with NOBODY in front of me. After all the wait, I figured everything would be super hot and great just for me.
NOPE, both sandwiches were wrong, chicken rubbery from probably 4 hours holding, fries were soggy and room temp. Frosty was liquid.

Went inside and got one of the sandwiches fix, more fries but they were same, just blah.

District mgr told me they are being held hostage by employees who come in when they feel like it, use the covid excuse for a few days off, when they are there, zombie like state.

Anyway, I told her she needed to cut my a check for about $25,000 for all the bust ass work I did compared to these slugs. I was doing the work of 5 of these $15 hour deadasses and I was getting $3.

Where my rabbarations

We can all do better than a fast food burrito; hard to imagine being that hungry. As for fast food in general, a purchase once every few years should satisfy any urge.

Drive through at local TB just a bit ago. 6 cars ahead
Moved along OK.
Order was correct, delivered politely, and they didnt scrimp on contents.

That TB does really well, even when the stoner night shift takes over.
When diablo sauce came out I asked billy burnout for some extra. I ended up putting all 42 packets in a rootbeer mug in kitchen 👍

Wish I had saved a bunch of the verde. I liked that on my Arbys sammy. But their 3 pepper is pretty good.

I like Taco Bell but I noticed a drop in quality in the Burrito Supreme a couple years ago. I started making my own.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

The key to the burrito is the refried beans. These Ducal refried black beans are made in Guatemala and taste great. I buy 'em at the Guatemalan Market here but you can get them on Amazon. They are better than any refried beans at Ingles Grocery store.
The tortillas you can get anywhere. These are huge tortillas, about 12 inch diameter. The biggest in Ingles. The cheese, readily available. I put the tortilla on a ceramic dinner plate, and load up the refried beans, cheese, and a little chicken. 90 seconds in the microwave and dinner is served. No cooking pots, or silverware to wash!

Mexican food is very regional by nature.

You get hot and spicy closer to the border.

The further you get away from the border, the less hot and spicy it gets. (Either North or South)

You get down to Southern Mexico and Mexican food isn't even recognizable as Mexican Food. Fried bananas and such... Sheesh!

I will say that NM has some GREAT Mexican food places! If they don't ask you "red or green?" when you order you aren't in a good one. wink

See, that's just the deal.

Thinking that "red or green" thing is "Mexican". grin

Strictly a New Mexican thing. Never been asked that in a "Real Mexican Restaurant". laugh

Burritos are meant to be picked up and eaten, like a sammich. Portable for lunch, wrapped in foil and set on the manifold of the backhoe to warm up. That kinda thing. Be awfully sloppy if it was covered in "red or green" and leaked on the hot manifold. eek

A proper example, and I just happen to like them a little crispy. Just made them for lunch the other day from some tri tip I had on the grill the other day. They were Yummy.

The free $$$ thing
I got laid off from a 10 year employment at start of 2012. Couldn't buy a job at the time. Previously I looked down on ebt/foodstamps. With 3 kids, and a wife that's never really worked, the few months of unemployment and ebt saved our butts. I'm not so judgemental now as I'm not in that individuals shoes, and have no clue what there life is like. Besides all that, wth would anybody eat a drive through burrito. Keep some Vienna sausage in your glove box, ain't no gloves in there anyways.

Taco Bell only makes Taco Bells “fast food” VERSION of Mexican food…pre formed taco shells?…GMAFB… their burritos are better now than they were in the 60s, but they still suck…

Locally, Sonic and Taco BellySwell are the worst in our small town. It's not brain surgery or something. We don't go to either place often, but the last time we went to our local Taco Bell, the service was unexpectedly good. I refuse to even go back to our local Sonic, they're so pitiful I won't even bother with them.
My food at home is a heckuva lot better, anyway, than either place.

This is one close to work. Won't be going back. As you said, far from great food but needed lunch at work.

Ended up at Taco Bell. Talk about expensive.

Rarely eat out anymore and am reminded why we don't as most times it's bad service, bad food or both. Costs too much to compromise.

Yeah fast food is too expensive and too slow these days. I can be 20 cars deep in the Chik Fil A line and get done faster than being 5 deep in the McDonalds drive thru.

Haven’t been to a Taco Bell in probably close to a decade. Not with Senor Taco in the neighborhood.
Posted By: simonkenton7 Re: Savor that burrito - 09/30/22
I like Taco Bell. I know, you can get better food at a real Mex restaurant. I have spent 6 months travelling around Mexico, from Veracruz to the Pacific coast, and from Isla Mujeres to Monterrey, and I have probably eaten more real Mexican food than you have.

But I drove a truck over the road for 8 years and I ate lots of Taco Bell, especially the Burrito Supreme. Tastes good, low in fat and lots of B vitamins, fiber and protein. Hell of a lot better for you than a Whopper or Big Mac 'n fries. I ate that Burrito Supreme 3 days a week and never tired of it.

Sadly, several years ago quality slipped on that item, mainly, they started putting half the refried beans in it.

Three years ago you could go to Taco Bell and be out in 5 minutes, great service pre-corona.

It goes back a while. Maybe 25 years ago we went into a new pizza place in a small town near us. They took our order immediately but it took us 45 min to get it. Except for several guys drinking beer, no food, we were the only ones in the place. They didn't stay in business long.

I entered at 5:45, they took the order from the guy in front of me at about 5:50. (warning sign 1)
They took my order of 1 burrito at 6:02. (warning sign 2)
I received my burrito at 6:31
I was about out of my mind, I know my face was red hot at about 20 minutes in, but I tried to keep my cool. It actually got to be funny later on as I had to stay just to see how long this burrito would take.
There were about 4 teenagers and 1 adult working, the kids kept walking around, looking up at the monitor but not accomplishing anything.
I had to savor that burrito as it must have been very carefully prepared.

We are f**cked as a society...there is way too much free money floating around.

Wisconsin's version of a "hard worker" is nothing short of hilarious.

Some of the laziest, most worthless fugks known to man.

Not all of them, but the majority for sure.

I am pretty sure the "Wait Time" at some food serving places is based on the staff's decision to drag it out as long as possible.
I am not so sure that many folks filling positions are people that want a job!.

It's not about sophistication or turning my stomach in the sense of making me ill. In fact I used to love their basic tostadas. It's just that the fiber from the lettuce and refried beans was inspirational to me which could interrupt driving long stretches.

Then they should serve them in the morning so a fella could enjoy one before his constitutional and be sure of working things out.

There used to be a *real" Mexican restaurant here. I went in one day about 11 AM and order dish of rice topped by beans, chopped spicy pork and topped with two fried eggs.

It was all sizzling' hot when they served it. It was a fantastic hangover meal.

You would need that money to hire a translator. The west side of Lexington is known either as Lexico or Mexington.

It helps to be fluent in Spanish if you travel over there.

They hand you a menu and you point at the picture of what you want.

I went into a Dennys this morning, sat at the counter and had a Grand Slam in 5 minutes. I was impressed because they seemed to be very busy. Coffe was hot and fresh too.

OTOH, I was in my local grocery at the meat counter. Only one person there. The customer ahead of me asked in a sympathetic tone if she was the only one there. The employee said yes, we have plenty of staff, they just decide when they want to come in when they want to.

Consider yourself lucky there was even someone there to give you a soggy sandwich and wilted fries.

I have a sales terrify that encompasses parts of four states. As a result, I eat on the road quite a bit. Fast food joints have become so unreliable that my typical lunch is a Cheerwine, pack of peanuts, and a beef jerky from a convenience store.

they might be a great financial story, but Mexican food they ain't.

Even their website alludes to it:

1951

Glen Bell, inspired by friends and neighbors at Mitla Cafe, creates his own version of the Crunchy Taco. (notice the "his own version" bit. Some folks create their own versions of pizza, like that abomination the chicken and ranch sauce "pizza")

1962

Glen Bell opens his first Taco Bell restaurant in Downey, CA, serving what his customers called "Tay-Kohs." (his customers, likely transplanted midwesterners, couldn't even pronounce the food they were eating correctly grin )

https://www.tacobell.com/history

Taco Hell, it's called that, got the name for a reason.

I guess it's better than McDonald's though.

In the 70's early part of the 80's it wasn't bad. Even my Puro Mexicano Grandparents liked eating there every once in a great while. Maybe more as a novelty and not having to cook though.

There are plenty of Burger King, McDonalds, and Popeye locations giving great service to their customers.

The chances of that happening in Wisconsin? Slim to none.

Yep.

Flave’s probably always drunk and obnoxious in the drive-thru line.
They get his order out quickly to get rid of him. 😂😂😂

And as Geno mentioned, Taco Helll is NOT Mexican food. It’s pure crapola.

Yep. When they opened here in the early 70’s, when I was in Jr High, they were at least edible. And everything on the menu was either .19 cents and then went to .29 cents.

The bean burritos were okay. Hard to screw up a plain ole bean burrito.

Shame on me but in my defense, it was late and not much else available.

Taco Cabana has also gone to crap.

We had a trout limit of ten fish or ten pounds and one extra fish, whichever you had first. It was common to have the ten pounds and one fish in 4-5 fish.

Taco Cabana has also gone to crap.

Taco Bueno Chain started in my old home town.
They finally tore down the original one. Bulldozed it and built a new one on that site.
Local guy started it about a year or two after the first Taco Bell came to town. Still 4 of them there now. And 4 Taco Hell’s.
Taco Bueno has really gone down hill since the original owner sold out. Still way better than Taco Hell, though.


Use to stop and eat at the original Taco Cabana in San Antonio. Haven’t been there in several years though. It was good back in the early 90’s.

Even DQ tacos are better than Taco Hell. 🤪

It was a big deal in my little home town when Taco Bell opened one of those adobe pueblo missions. Tacos were 14 cents, enchiritos were 24 cents.
Had a high school buddy that worked the night shift but the best he could sneak out the back door was some broken taco shells and hot sauce packets.

Yeah, but a flour tortilla. Enchiladas are corn.

Plus, "enchiritio" sounded better than "burrilada."

Lots of those old Taco Bell buildings are now inhabited by LosBetos, Filibetos, Ralibetos, you get the betos idea in the metro Phoenix area.

Pretty good food, especially late at night.

I guess but we can get enchiladas with flour tortillas. The ends being open makes it more of an enchilada with a ft than a burrito enchilada style.

One problem I've run into is, sometimes They'll get an on-line or call in order from one of those new "food delivery" people that will have 10 orders in one.....or maybe more. I've gone into a couple places that looked empty, only to find there was a huge order from a delivery service in front of me and some dude was sitting in a booth waiting for it.

Yep. They looked the same here. They tore all those down about 10 or 15 years ago and replaced them with the “modern versions”.

Around here you can eat Tex-Mex for the same or less than any fast food, and get more food. Always fast service, always good.

On my way to work I can pick up three overstuffed, hot off the grill bean and egg tacos with extra green sauce for $4.10. ( recently went up, it was $3-something pre-Biden). After that I still ain’t hungry at dinner time.

Taco Bell is one of California's greatest stories.


Bwaahahhahhahahahhahaaaaa laugh laugh laugh

My mom loved their tacos.........................then again.......................she was from............................New York City! grin

they might be a great financial story, but Mexican food they ain't.

Even their website alludes to it:

1951

Glen Bell, inspired by friends and neighbors at Mitla Cafe, creates his own version of the Crunchy Taco. (notice the "his own version" bit. Some folks create their own versions of pizza, like that abomination the chicken and ranch sauce "pizza")

1962

Glen Bell opens his first Taco Bell restaurant in Downey, CA, serving what his customers called "Tay-Kohs." (his customers, likely transplanted midwesterners, couldn't even pronounce the food they were eating correctly grin )

https://www.tacobell.com/history

Taco Hell, it's called that, got the name for a reason.

I guess it's better than McDonald's though.

Mom loved the Enchirito, Guess that's why she married Pops. LMAO!!

Taco Bell is hot garbage. Still, I crave it a few times a year.
Taco Time is good eats.

How fast food shops run is a direct reflection of the owner and management. Jack in the Box routinely sucks azz. Consistently dirty, slow, and staffed by mongoloids. Taco Bell ain’t far behind. Other joints in the neighborhood are well run.

Taco hell or chitty bell isn't what it used to be 30 years ago.

And you have to get into Az to get great Mex food, though there are plenty of crappy chain restaurants pretending to be mex, probably based out of Kansas...

If you’re referring to all the stimulus and unemployment the last few years, that wasn’t free. We are all paying for it.

You could also look at the federal rate the last 15 years or so. Was well under 1% for much of that span. That’s about as close to “free” as you’re gonna get.

But just like eating Taco Bell, you’re gonna pay for it sooner or later. Lol.

On my way to work I can pick up three overstuffed, hot off the grill bean and egg tacos with extra green sauce for $4.10. ( recently went up, it was $3-something pre-Biden). After that I still ain’t hungry at dinner time.

Where you live all the tacos are on par with the service.

Meaning they both fugking suck.

The fact that I know too much is what caused me to be sheltered in the first place.

#1 MPAI (most people are idiots)

#2 The most verbal idiots broadcast the fact by being chuckleheads.

#3 I've got no use for either variant of idiots,....neither those who keep it to themselves,..or those who demonstrate it by broadcasting to the world that they're not only idiots,..but that they're chuckleheads who are too idiotic to hide their idiocy from the public.

On your best days you're simply an idiot. The other 99% of the time you're a chucklehead.

Unfortunately very soon everyone is going to have to be able to read the room and pick out the guats from the hondos from the el sals from the Mexicans to figure out who wants to fûck you and who wants to eat you.

And you have to get into Az to get great Mex food, though there are plenty of crappy chain restaurants pretending to be mex, probably based out of Kansas...

There is great Mexican food all over the US.

That’s sort of true.

But on the southern border good Mexican food starts in California and ends in El Paso.

Del Rio to Brownsville is dog schit in a tortilla.

Have you tried Taqueria Ramirez over on Alexandria Drive? Never tried it myself but judging by the menu, they appear to do tacos with everything but the hooves. I think it's one of those Mexican grocery deals with a few tables in the back and some old Mezcan grandma in there boiling pig heads all day.

In the early 90s I went to Oahu for the company I worked for on a construction project. There was one Mexican restaurant listed on the island, downtown Honolulu. Decided to try it, the menu had mexican sounding dishes... what came out was unrecognizable as anything mex and tasted even worse.

I spent some time living about 4 blocks from the Super Burrito on Kirman, it was in the mall parking lot by the theater. Family run place, homestyle food.

Lol, crappy neighborhood! But the food was good.

Rent was cheap, Mt. Rose was a 30 minute drive, Pyramid lake about an hour and 15.

Sounds like a place I went to in Jamestown NY. Late 90's. I lived down the road a bit in PA, asked a couple of folks where to get some Mexican food, as there was no place nearby. Jamestown was the "Big Town" in the area with the Sears store and such, so I found the place they recommended next time I was up there.

Probably should have known better than to take any Pennsylvanian advice about Mexican food given that in the 70's when I lived down in So PA one of the folks I fixed homemade shredded beef burritos for told me he preferred the beef and bean ones from the cooler in the 7-11. Then again, I think he was born in Binghamton NY.

Ordered a beef burrito at the place in Jamestown.

Waitress asked "Do you want onions on that?" Uh, yeah.

"You want peppers on that? " Uh, yeah.

"You want chips and "salsa"? I think I was nice and didn't say "well duh" and just said yeah.

Order comes, burrito swimming in red stuff that turns out tasting like spaghetti sauce, it even had ground beef in it, not spicy or even much chili flavor at all. The peppers in it were bell peppers, at least the onion tasted like onion.

Check came. $0.50 extra for the onion. $0.50 extra for the peppers. $3.50 (I think) for the chips and salsa

WTF I think. I figured she was being polite in asking about those things as I learned a long time ago about some Pennsylvanians, the ones that don't have family from warm places like Italy or Spain, think garlic in spaghetti sauce makes it "too spicy".

I gave her a bit of an earful when I told her those things, including the chips and salsa, are normal and free where I come from. Paid the check and never returned.

Good thing was, traveling through Bradford PA, having already eaten though, my wife and I noticed a sandwich board type sign on the sidewalk downtown. Mexican Food. One day we returned, myself somewhat reluctantly but with high hopes after the Jamestown experience, sat down, were greeted by a nice gringo lady, ordered our food. We were pleasantly surprised and told the gal so. And asked where she learned to make such good Mexican food.

She told us she grew up there but lived for a number of years in Buckeye AZ, where her Mexican husband managed a restaurant there. When she got homesick and wanted to move back to Bradford he agreed and opened a restaurant of their own when they got there.

The folks where I lived thought we were crazy to drive the hour or so, sometimes in winter with snow, just for Mexican food. When I told them I have probably eaten more tacos, enchiladas, burritos etc than hamburgers and hot dogs, they still didn't seem to understand.

It was hard enough in the 70's in PA for me to go to various stores just to get the ingredients to make the aforementioned burritos for my friends. I can make stuff I need to when I get to jonesin for Mexican food, but I cannot fathom living somewhere without a decent Mexican restaurant within a relatively short drive.

We've been to Mexico many times and usually to to Ixtapa Zihuatanejo. First time down there we went to Mazatlan. We were walking the streets and looking for a place to have lunch. Stopped in at a food joint along the street and sat down. The owner came out to serve us and I asked if his tacos were made with ground beef. He went ballistic on me. He said. "You want tacos with ground beef, go to the USA and eat at Taco Bell". Still laugh my jazz off about that to this day.

Shoulda just asked him “what do you call a cow with no legs?”

In hindsight, the 30 minutes I was waiting for the burrito was much shorter than the wait time when we were in Mexico waiting for our food to be prepared...
Posted By: Birdwatcher Re: Savor that burrito - 10/02/22
Couple of years back I went out to eat with my brother in NY State, Orange County, upscale acreage homesites.

We went to a local Mexican place, the food was just OK, the chips and salsa sucked. The force afterwards was pretty good tho.

It was my turn to pick up the tab.... WTF, $60 before the tip. Woulda cost less than half that around here.
