Tried the Chipotle Queso today. It took them years of R&D to come up with that? That was the most basic and tasteless queso I've ever had. Terrible.

On the flip side I had a CFA chicken gravy biscuit yesterday. That has to be the best value in the fast food industry. $1.65 for a bowl of deliciousness.

Holy ****, no wonder I'm fat as ****!

I guess the "value taco" is 150 calories. Whatever that thing is. I'll try it. I do order the turkey tacos w no cheese, so I'm probably saving a good amount there considering they put a mountain of cheese on those things.

Enjoy it while you can. Gravy has been removed.from the menu, with the introduction of the new hash brown scramble items. Which is stupid because the hash brown scramble is just their existing stuff with hash browns put inside instead of getting them in a box on the side. RIP CFA gravy

That Rodeo King is Marvelous. Simply Marvelous. My Buffalo Chicken Sandwhich was pretty good but basic. Chicken was piping hot, but this seems like that bland, not-hot buffalo sauce you can get for their nuggets.

I've posted this in other places, but I got a new job, at Facebook. Which is super exciting and an awesome opportunity. And has massively weakened my fast food game

Congratulations. But why has that weakened your FF game?

If you haven't had a smoky jack yet, you're doing yourself a real disservice.

Also had two of their eggrols with it, and they're really good.

Because they have free food here and fast food isn't near by. Which is a sharp contrast from my previous employer which had expensive & mediocre food on campus and tons of fast food options near by.

I got a CFA chicken egg biscuit meal this morning, excellent. Their little hash browns are crisper than Whataburger's. Even the coffee was good. No receipt survey coupon though.

No one quits fast food.

WTF is that Chipotle queso? It was way worse than I expected. The flavor is nonexistent but the worst part was the texture and consistency of it. Way too thick and grainy.

I always go to Freebirds but my wife wanted Chipotle last night so figured I'd just go ahead and try the queso out. We threw most of it out after eating it with a few chips.

Freebirds is better than Chipotle all the way around. Way more veggie/sauce options, better queso, refried beans, bigger sizes, etc.

Rough life right? (spoiler alert it's an amazing perk and I love it. FF game will just have to be collateral damage)

Yeah that's a real nice campus, but the closest you got to food nearby is potbelly and taco del mar.

I think the pho place nearby is supposed to be real good though

Also, It's a bit of a walk, but Bahn thai on Roy was the first thai place I went to after moving out here and it's delicious so it holds a special place in my heart. They made fun of my white friend and I when we ordered 5 star and said we wouldn't be able to handle it.

[Spoiler]they were half right, we were able to eat it but would have preferred 4 star in hindsight[/spoiler]

Probably because they're all in disbelief that it could be so bad. I'm very curious myself.

Del Taco queso was legit. Tasted like my mom's nachos where it's just jack cheese and green chiles.
