McRib is returning!

I actually like Taco Bell. I like their tacos. I like their tacos better than Del Taco. I like their rehydrated, reconstituted bean matter that they put in their burritos.

But they've discontinued their Green Sauce for some reason, which is what I would put on their bean burrito.

So, no real reason to go there much any more.

And, yea, the Mexican Pizza is tasty.

Through many years of my adult life spent living in various locations in the south...I’m sure I have. Not to mention the fact that I’ve spent over eight years in a relationship with a woman born and raised in Memphis and north Mississippi.

I wonder if some of you judge the origins of your favorite foods as discriminately as you do the McRib. I think many of you would be surprised to find what really makes up the basics of what you eat.

Unless of course you’re a vegetarian in which case I hope the view is nice from your soapbox. :cool

Well I stand corrected. You may well have had more good fried chicken than me. Which makes you're love of that place all the more confusing. Their waffle fries are great, mostly because they're unique, but I've never found anything else about their food to be remotely remarkable. And their politics means, for me, that I'd rather spend my money just about anywhere else.

Enjoy your chicken.

Taco bell is really shitting the bed (so to speak). They've also discontinued pico, potatoes, double decker tacos, nachos supreme, the 7 layer burrito, and shredded chicken.

First of all, it's the brining. No one else (yes, not even Popeye's) does this right at all.

Secondly, it's not THEIR politics, it's the owner's of the company, the Cathy family's politics. What they do with their dividends is their business. So long as the restaurant's corporate name isn't on the checks they're writing to those religiously-backed anti-LGBT groups, people are pinning the argument where it doesn't belong. That'd be like saying McDonald's is anti-LGBT just because inevitably some people that are on their payroll are donating to the same groups that the Cathy family does. Indeed, Chick-Fil-A, the restaurant chain, is no more The Chick-Fil-A Foundation (which IS the donating party) than McDonald's, the restaurant chain, is Ronald McDonald House Charities. They're separate legal entities (both non-profit organizations) that sound the same in name but have different agendas and purposes than their similarly-named restaurant corporate cousins. It's true that the company's values are predicated largely on Southern Baptist traditions, but that doesn't mean the restaurant company itself is anti-LGBT. Indeed, what's wrong with always being kind to customers and saying please and thank you or my pleasure? These are good tenets any business should be adopting and practicing. When's the last time you had a 100% courteous experience at a fast food restaurant, let alone any restaurant? Anymore, it seems like you're an inconvenience to the employees at a restaurant and nothing more than a means to a paycheck. I've NEVER had that experience at any Chick-Fil-A anywhere in the country, including here in California which, admittedly, is even more so strange and rare. The vibe is just different and in a good way.

Cool video! It's pretty wild to think of a company like mcdonalds buying up the world's entire supply of chicken. I would have thought that the global - or at least, the national supply of chicken was reasonably stable and has been for decades - a single person can only eat so much chicken, whether that's from McDOnalds, or Popeye's, or their local fried chicken shop or they buy it and cook it themselves. And that phenomena would me an that the supply of chicken is relatively stable. Kinda like what we saw earlier this year when you couldn't buy toilet paper. We only have so many butts to wipe, so the demand of toilet paper is exceptionally flat. The markets only become destabilized when there's an artificial demand for it - worry of scarcity causing actual scarcity.

Anyhow we don't normally get to think of things on this scale, which is what makes this video so neat.
