Fast Food, both taste & deals,Pt. 3

Tried that "Giant Taste" Taco AND the "Volcano" Taco at Taco Bell, on someone here's suggestion- AIEEEEEEEEMYARSEHOLE-whew! The Volcano does indeed have hot sauce-my recommendation would be to get the hot sauce that comes on that (a paste type rather than a liquid)in a small plastic dish they'll provide, and you can add to your liking. The Giant Taste one was ok, but I prefer the double beef cheesey burrito personally-same price-99 cents.

Also-FYI-at Rally's....the Rallyburger has went back down to 99 cents!! Guess they had too many people bitch, or maybe a drop in sales, but they dropped it back down. The chili dogs stayed at $1.30, though.

Taco Bell: Just a step above Loma Linda's bland crap and their sissy-ass breakfast margaritas!

FINALLY-someone else who thinks Loma Linda's is one of the most over-rated places in town!! LOL

Loma's is VERY over-rated, so is Ventura's! Personally, we love Mi Hacienda's over on Glanzman off Byrne. It's been a few years since we've been there, so I can't say if they're still open or not. GREAT food at a great price with HUGE servings!

That volcano taco was pretty bad.

I will admit that I am slightly addicted to the spicy chicken burrito w/ extra jalapenos.

ahh..yes..Taco Bell.. "Make a run for the border...then Make a run for the bathroom"..

anyways.I'm personally like El Vaquero, and the New Del Taco off secor isn't to bad.. better then Taco Bell.

FYI - Mi Hacienda is still open, but I have not been there (not a big fan of Mexican food).

that place off of 23 in maumee (near tom noe's old shop) has some great food. friend of mine from up north goes to that place everytime he drives through toledo. he says it's almost as good as his mom makes (%100 mexican, speaks little english).

so take that for what it's worth.

According to Taco Bell, they don't have MSG in their food explicitly, just a lot of things that normally are used to cover the MSG like Autolyzed Yeast, the generic spices term, Natural Flavors, and more...

That might explain why people tend to feel like garbage once their body tries to digest it.

BTW never ate at Rally's before but will try it.
Another good deal is that Arby's is selling Arbie-Q's for $0.99 and they're delicious and filling.

I saw that. Are they actually shredded beef, or just like their regular sandwiches only with sauce on 'em? I can't remember, been so long since I took anything out there. Make sure you try Rally's fries. I wouldn't get that buffalo chicken sandwich, it's mostly heat, not much flavor. The chicken strips (dinner or sandwich) are decent, the "big Buford" is a double Rally-Burger , in essence. Fish also decent, as are the chili dogs.

I confess I made myself hungry too, had to go get two cheesy double beef burritos LOl

I used to like Rally's burgers 5 or 6 years ago, but I could no longer take their fries with the crap they have coated on them.

posted by AmericanPie on Sep 17, 2008 at 08:37:32 pm     #



Church's chicken today. Wish they wouldn't use as much breading/coating, though. I take half of it off before eating it.

Hey Dark, have you ever had Popeyes?

I am not a fast food junkie nor is fried chicken my fave, but that place is good!

Get the spicy chicken, sides are good too.
