Today I have had the privilege of enjoying a fulfilling lunch at Taco Bell. You've probably heard that wherever the truck drivers eat is where you will find good food. While I didn't see any truck drivers during my visit today, I did see some day laborers. When I add this to the fact that Taco Bell's parent company is "Yum! Brands, Inc", I knew I was in for a culinary treat. All items on the menu were arranged in preselected food groups, presumably designed to pair up the best combinations. I chose the "Crunchwrap Supreme" and regular taco. The name "Crunchwrap" gives no indication of it's contents, nor does the word "Supreme". I searched but did not find anything on the menu named "Crunchwrap Regular", so I assume that was out of season. I will have to give them a failing grade on presentation. My Crunchwrap Supreme was wrapped up in a piece of paper and placed in a plastic bag, along with the accompanying taco. However...
Thank you Tracy for setting up this blog. This will be the premiere destination for hungry folk on a budget from all over the country, someday. Perhaps. I am Greg, aka Catscape, aka Chef Greg. My knowledge of good food goes way back to the mid 60's when I encountered my first McDonald's restaurant. I was so mesmerized by the illuminated golden arches, and the happy clown persuading me to try his McNuggets, that I really didn't care how the food tasted - it was FUN, and that was all it needed to be. I would later discover the pure bliss that is known as the "Happy Meal", with the amazing plastic toys designed to distract me just long enough for mom to 'enjoy' a little peace and quiet while she ate. As I grew in knowledge and taste, I soon discovered a whole world of plastic shiny food-like products being pitched by everyone from clowns to kings. Ahh, the food of plastic-faced kings. It must be good.
