Man, I'm late to the news, but I can't believe Taco Bell did away with the Grilled Stuffed Burrito. The original beef grilled stuffed burrito is my all time favorite fast food item. The way the sauces mix with the rice, beans, etc is just perfect. One spring break in college, I practically lived off of those things.

I liked the original better than the xxl. The xxl is still really tasty but the guac probably caused some of the price increase. I still usually got one when I went to TB though.

I hope they start bringing it back every now and then, kinda like Mcdonalds does with the McRib.

Also, I went to Freddie's for the first time over the weekend. I didn't think their custard was anything special (reminds me of Dairy Queen's ice cream), but their cheese curds were great. I live in Dallas and didn't realize we had Freddie's around here. I was actually in a small town a little outside of Dallas when I stopped at the Freddie's.

Same here. It's hard to make an argument that they're good. Quality of the ingredients are low and they're hastily slopped together most of the time. For a lot of American kids tho it's their first memories of cheeseburgers so it's like mainlining nostalgia pretty much.

Carl's Jr sent their email club members a coupon for a free Famous Star w/Cheese with a large drink purchase. It's only good for this Wednesday. Note, this is the normal Famous Star not the Beyond version.

I've got lunch plans for Wednesday!

Do yourself a favor and grab a jalapeno double while you're at it.

I had 2 for $5 in Oregon a few days ago. They were nice.


Plus one to jalapeno double.

I’m also a big supporter of the jalapeño double at Carl’s. Excellent for $2.50

I've noticed consistently that when i use a free coupon or reward at CFA that the sandwich I get is smaller than usual. I am going to have to make a youtube video at some point. First go buy a sandwich with cash. Then use the freebee and show the difference.

Modern is a good suggestion as it's probably the best combination of great pizza and convenience, but if you want the best pizza you go to Sally's. Also pro tip no matter where you go in NH it's better to get multiple smaller pizzas than large pizzas because the larges are huge and will have floppy slices whereas the smalls provide perfect foldable pieces of heaven.
It's not steamed and tastes nothing like meatloaf. It's not the best burger ever but they invented the hamburger so there's that.

lol, 0% chance

The guys in the back who assemble the sandwiches have no idea who, what or how much anyone paid.

I have the same reaction to the Big Mac - I get one every 6 mos. or so, am always disappointed in the sandwich but not the experience, if that makes sense. It's definitely a nostalgia/high school memory sort of thing.

The xxl is gone too. My favorite was the smothered burrito, also gone.

Seems like attempting to rob them would be a freeroll then.

I am sure their are plenty of people dressed like this who could benefit. In some states, like Texas, the guns are actually allowed.

I was rather disenchanted when I learned that's what a modern day pirate looks like.

Free bean burrito with $5 spent in the taco bell app. And if you're a T-mobile customer, the T-mobile Tuesday's app has been giving away free Dorito loco tacos every week for months.

Have a Malucci Mac, you will not be disappointed.

Had some LJS the other night. It’s a combined KFC/LJS, but they won’t serve LJS from the drive thru...so I had to go inside, they made me wait for the food, and the fish and chicken were divine.
