Spent most of today feeling very frustrated and guilty for being so, but in that overtired 'I feel really jittery and I may fly apart by keeping this to myself' sort of way that I get after I go 3-4 days without sleep. I'm completely mad that I have to rebuild my sunday campaign from scratch when I'm still am writing for the epic level campaign, and logically I know I should just suck it up, but after spending most of the day trying and failing to get a good plot going, It's a little hard not to want to punch things.
No, we came full circle again when I had Taco Bell for dinner last night and ordered nachos.
By the way, for all the times that Taco Bell nachos have come up in this thread, I don't think I've ever specified, the ones I like are the Nachos Supreme without the sour cream.
That's because the American idea of a taco is totally different from the Mexcian idea of a taco, just like pretty much all "ethnic" food in the US.
I'm sure the reverse is also true.
My wife's brother told me once about his experience ordering a burger in Japan.
EDIT: Oh. and pizza too! I remember he said that they put mayo on almost all their food, including drizzling mayo across the top of a pizza. What's more, the Japanese apparently don't function well if you ask for a specially made order.
I'm not saying they're stupid. The culture there is just different, I'm sure. But it certainly sounds gross to me.

Heh, having seen them myself I'm definitely not unaware of that. Honestly, even when they try being like the real deal the ingredients make all the difference.

Well, my personal rule about Mexican places is that it's not a real Mexican restaurant unless they serve tongue.
I wouldn't mind Chipotle if I could eat there without it being too spicy for me. As it is, my business goes to Qdoba.
Too spicy? Really? Maybe it's just my Southern Californian roots but I don't find them spicy at all. Then again, I never put any salsa stronger than the mild kind on my burritos.

No, I just have a really weak tongue. I'm pretty sure it's the seasoning they use on their steak that's too much for me, because I've had a pork burrito or two with the mild salsa that I was okay with. However, Qdoba's steak isn't spicy at all for me.
My wife isn't fond of Qdoba's salsa. The red salsa is too hot, while the medium salsa is green. Maybe if they had medium red salsa, but they don't. As for me, I like burritos but not at Qdoba because you are forced to eat Qdoba burritos with a fork (ie. they are too fat.)
The only person I've ever seen eat a Qdoba burrito with a fork is my dad. You can totally eat one of those things with your hands.
when I eat a burrito, I don't expect to have to bite into a corner of it and then risk a crap ton of stuff falling out cuz the dang thing is so fat. I expect to be able to fit one end of my burrito in my mouth, not just bite into a corner of it.

That's weird, I've never had any spicy food at Chipotle, ever. I didn't realise they even made it.
I love Chipotle. I dislike Taco Bell because when I ask for things without sour cream they still put sour cream on. It has happened every single time I have eaten from there.

Well, part of it is that I have a very low tolerance for spicy foods, to the point that things will be spicy for me when they're not even on some people's radar.

Really? One of my regular items (the aforementioned nachos) comes with sour cream, and I've been ordering it without sour cream for years. At most, there's been once or twice that I've ended up with sour cream anyway.
You people in the US with your wide variety of fast food outlets...damn you all!
Don't worry, I had to go back to France. Now the only thing I can get is freshly made sandwiches with fresh bed in bakeries. Which is awesome, by the way

All this talk of Chipotle... you're killin' me here.
Funny to see Guru call it spicy, though. My grandfather introduced me to jalapeños at a young age, so my addiction started early, and now I eat ridiculously spicy foods like there's no tomorrow.
I had to cut back a bit, though... I made the horrible mistake of taking on a local salsa challenge that featured everything from habanero to bhut jolokia (hottest stable strain of pepper on record). I won the challenge, but the peppers ate away my stomach lining and put me in the hospital. I'm amazed that I don't have an ulcer. Now I'm a little more careful about testing my limits.

...and wtf? I just read that American Taco Bells don't sell french fries. Damn. You folks are missing out. Fries Supreme and all.
Taco Bell...french fries...

You've been going to the wrong restaurants, then.

Do arteries count? Because I totally got an artery in a burrito at my school cafeteria once. It was awesome.

Otherwise, Qdoba is good.

Scary staff.
"Use that fork, damn you, or so help me it'll be going into another orifice entirely!"

This isn't a problem I ever have or have ever witnessed.
]I'm playing Deadly Premonition, and all the colors are messed up.
The menu even had messed up colors on the edges.
seems to be ok now that I reset it.
I wonder why it went all crazy.

^ why can this sort of marketing not be used more in the UK?

We have that. It's called Panera Bread.
Mmm... fresh bakery bed.
