You have to try the double up. I put mine bottom side to bottom side (with the onions and pickles facing the bun) and then I chuck the extra bun over my wall to the neighbors dog. She loves that ****.

I am such a huge fan of volcano tacos from TB, everything I know tells me they should be terrible, but I seriously can't get enough of them.

My 10yo son orders a gordita and has them add lava sauce. He says it's better than the volcano taco.

Cool fast food story bro.
I rarely get a pizza anymore that's cooked enough for me. I found that just putting a couple slices in a frying pan on the stove for a few minutes works well. Makes the crust nice and crispy and heats the pizza thoroughly

I had the Arby's Angus 3 cheese and bacon sandwich. No ****.. I couldn't taste any cheese at all. You would think that with 3 cheeses, you'd taste some cheese!?

Avoid this sandwich at $8+ for a combo meal

100% correct. Best fast food taco ever.

The Volcano Burrito is frustrating, because Taco Bell seems to know it's addictive and price accordingly: it's like $1 more than any other beef burritto, basically just for the sauce. But man, that inevitiable ball of sauce and rice you get somewhere towards one of the ends of the burrito makes it all worth while.

I also looked it up one time, and somehow the Volcano sauce makes the taco and burrito like 70% more unhealthy than their less-tasty bretheren. Bummer.

And speaking of Taco Bell, has anyone had one of the monster steak flatbread sandwhiches they were advertising during the NFL this weekend?

The Arby's dollar pepperjack sandwiches are garbage.

Little Caesar's worse than I remember it but I tried to get a frozen one instead one day and it was a little cheaper and better tasting but smaller and much more of a pain in the ass. Could have also gone with the Digiorno's which is a little bigger but $6 for a frozen is tough to pay for. Best option imo is to plan 10-15 minute ahead and go pick up a $5.55 from Hungry Howie's

Had a Zantigo chilito yesterday, apparently only available in the state of MN. I asked the cashier for their most popular item. She said it accounts for a huge percentage of their sales.

Apparently it's the original chilito. Zantigo chain (formerly Zapata), was purchased by Taco Bell, but former managers re-opened the chain.

It was pretty good, though lacking filling on the end. Would nom again. Would bring some home for the fridge.

Little Caesars really is 1000% better when you get one well done. I'm just blown away by what a difference it makes.

Disappointed to hear about the Arby's, the commercial for those sammies made them look like a potential GOAT dollar menu option.

It has never ever crossed my mind to order a pizza well done. What does it do aside from harden the crust? This sounds interesting.

At least at the local Little Casears they only care about pushing stuff out the door as fast as possible, so 80%+ of their pizzas are undercooked. You ever eat undercooked bread? Yuck.

By ordering one well done (I've just gone in when they aren't busy and asked them to send one that's coming out of the over back thru again halfway) you get:

1. A truly hot pizza instead of one that's been sitting in the rack
2. Better flavor. I realize this is subjective but I really do think it makes a difference in fusing the flavors of the sauce and toppings.
3. Yeah, you do get a little crunchier crust.

It's not like this turns Caesars into world class pizza or anything, but it's a really easy way to greatly improve the on the run pizza experience.

Just finished eating the Triple Steak Stack flatbread from taco bell, picture on the TB website like this:


What mine looked like:



Size Comparison



Inisde:



At first glance its obviously not as "overflowing with steak" as the stock photo is, but def has a decent amount of steak for the price(5.29 for sandwich alone in Delaware). The flat bread was a little "soggy" and ripped a little bit making eating it a little messier than it should be. This could be cause by the fact it was pre made, or maybe it was the 5 min drive back that cost it, maybe an instore experience would serve better. The cheese was nicely melted.

The whole thing tasted rather good for fast food, and def one of the best things I have eaten at taco bell, however the price(for me at least) isnt worth it as you can get a lot more smaller things for the same price that has more food, but if you are simply going for the taste its worth the buy imo.

For anybody whos been to Rehobeth Delaware, it tastes similar to the ground beef Nicobolis from Nicolas Pizza.

Overall:

Taste alone: 8.5/10(Fast food scale)

A little more steak in it and the price easily becomes worth it even for a college kid like me.

haven't bought a big mac or quarter pounder in years

I don't care how much steak they pile on, $5.29 for anything at Taco Bell is ****ing ridiculous.

Has anybody had recent experience ordering an off-menu Cheesy Gordita Crunch at Taco Bell? It used to be common knowledge that you could still order it even when it wasn't advertised, but for the last year or so the TBs I've been to have told me they can't make it.
