the jack in the box grilled breakfast sandwich is now officially the best fast food breakfast sandwich. i have paid more for less.


I love their breakfast sandwiches. Used to get them every other day on my way in to work.

I used to get their sourdough breakfast Jack, and then somehow they decided to either remove it or stop buttering/griddling them. So I stopped...

And then I discovered the grilled breakfast sandwich...

Oreos has a new Nutella flavor (well, chocolate hazelnut). Yellow cookie, chocolate filling. But it's way better than the regular inside-out Oreo with the regular chocolate filling. These are dang good lol. Which is great, because a lot of the other 'unique' Oreo flavors are really awful haha. They kind of tastes like Dunkaroos, if you ever had those as a kid.

10/10 will buy another package of Chocolate Hazelnut Oreos.

Don’t know if it was mentioned already but Lupe’s Mexican has some really good burritos, their Oceanside was particularly good. It’s a small chain and only a handful of locations in SoCal (OC and south) but worth checking out.

Mac Jr is back at McD and awesome (well, as awesome as a burger from McD could be). Had the grand mac sans middle piece of bread last night, vastly prefer the Mac Jr.

Also, the new classic chicken sandwich for $3 is terrible and is not even playing the same game as the great southern chicken sandwich they had a few years back.

My review of fast food chains:

McD/BK/Wendy's: I think they're so different that I actually crave them all in rotation. I don't think a single one is innately superior... although I think McD burgers are weaker while McD fries & nuggets compensate.

Tacobell: Meh

KFC:

I don't know where I was going with this because I actually crave them all and like them all. Popeyes, Grilled chicken japanese fried rice thingy, all burger joints, pizza etc.

I wish they were crisper/crunchier its difficult to explain, if they were more like Jack In The Box curly fries = OMG.

How do JITB curlies compare to Arby's? Arby's curly fries + cheese sauce is my gold standard. I don't get them often because the greasiness has gone up significantly within the past few years.

Nacho Fries from Taco Bell:

Surprisingly good! The fries by themselves are actually pretty good; I was pleasantly surprised because I did not have high expectations for them. With the nacho cheese for dipping, they were weird, but not in a bad way. Became kind of addictive after eating a few of them. However, I'm not sure if I would ever buy them again for me personally. Like, they were actually quite good, but I don't think they're "my thing". Maybe having a non-spicy nacho cheese (like a plain cheese-only dipping sauce) might step it up for me.

BK Double Quarter Pound King:

Pass. This was disappointing. Whopper is 10x better. This effort was basically their value-menu burger, made worse somehow. It was a chore to eat this.

BK Twix Pie:

0/10. I was so disappointed that I had to go out & buy real Twix to make myself feel better. Everything about this was a "no". I couldn't finish it. Sad. Fake news.

So Taco Bell CEO takes over for Chiptole CEO on the Chiptole BoD...or something like that.

Not sure what to think about it, other than my diarrhea is now going to taste like paper, sawdust, and ground rat going in.

Great?!? I thought it was a sad imitation of Chick-Fil-A, for more money. This was before we finally had a local CFA.
