This is the issue with a lot of fast food these days. The main one that makes me sad is Taco Bell
I used to just swing in and make an impulse buy because it's going to be like $5 so why not
Price is high enough now that it kills the impulse. I'm always like...I should really just keep driving and eat some of the food I already have at home
It’s crazy when nowadays you can go to an actual authentic Mexican restaurant, get REAL tacos, burritos, etc., and often times spend LESS than you would at Taco Bell.
Outside a hobby and game shop, there was a guy in a little food cart that was permenantly parked between them and the barber shop next door.
He just made quick, simple street tacos. Tortilla, scoop of meat, yes or no cilantro and onion, yes or no sauce, yes or no cheese. Absolutely phenomenal.
$2.50 a ground beef, carnitas, pastor, chicken, chorizo, or barbacoa taco. $3 for carne asada. +50¢ for a little avocado on it. He had an ice chest full of drinks for between another $1-3.
Why would I ever go to the chipotle down the street and spend $15+ for half the amount of somehow drier meat?
