Dorito’s has unveiled there new chip, the Rollito! The main slogan of the marketing campaign is “Now your favorite snack is even easier to eat!” WTF! Since when has a chip been hard too eat! No more sharp edges on chips! Chips were dangerous until now. No wonder we're all fat!

I take offense to the fact that they claim to know what MY favorite snack is! The audacity is overwhelming! My favorite snack happens to be cheeseburgers! They are already incredibly easy to eat (not too easy to digest, though, and incredibly difficult to eject, but it's worth it).[av=f]

Also, even if chips were my favorite snack, do they really NEED to be easier to eat? "Oh man I'd love to eat some Doritos but it's just so difficult and perplexing!"

I've been eating the Rollitos since they hit our local stores around a month and a half ago. I love the taco flavored ones. [Smile]

Ok there Joe.... We ought to change your name to Whimpy! If you like really good burgers be sure to try one at the Red Lodge Cafe up here in Montana...... best I've ever had.

I still prefer good ole Ruffles since a single ruffle can hold several pounds of dip... those reinforcing ribs really do work [thumbsup]

There is no better burger than McDonalds double cheeseburger, and they are only $1. [thumbsup]

Whats so hard about eating regular Doritos that are usually all broken anyway??

I just about quit eating Doritos when they rounded the corners off. They're just not the same.

Now I have to resort to eating rusty nails and little pieces of barbed wire dipped in hot sauce. [Wink]

Holy crap! You're kidding, right?

I can't stand Dorittos. They coat your mouth with that gross flavored powder that you can still taste two days later. [puke]

Sabritos are good, though! I just wish they were easier to eat! [Roll Eyes]

Couldn't tell ya'. Have hardly eaten any since the went with the safety corners.

Maybe it's because they changed the recipe too. I don't know for sure 'cuz I don't eat them anymore. They just don't make my boat float.

I'd rather eat dry matzohs without salt.

Mike, Jeremy is in TX, he just hasn't had the opportunity to experience the burger bliss that is INO...

Then again, they in TX (and a couple locations in OK, i believe) have the exclusivity of the Holy Grail of Tex-Mex fast food ... [Smile]

I am pretty sure there are better burgers than McDonalds double cheeseburgers, but thats what I prefer, especially a few days from payday, when the pockets are almost empty. Im sure the in-n-out burgers are good, how bout someone mail me one!! By the way, I think Taco Cabana is crap. There are much better places for Mexican food here in Corpus. [thumbsup]

Yeah Jeremy,

I have had several folks in Cali and Arizona tell me In and Out burgers rock. However in Corpus Christi, Wallbangers is the top burger since Price's clsoed way back in the early 80's. If you want a really good and greasy burger. Try the Bellaire or Hamlin Pharmacy. Both still have grill's in them.

As for Mexican Food: Old Mexico on Leopard wins hands down.

Posted by Jeremy Fuentes (Member # 2135) on 04-27-2004, 11:53 AM:

Yup, Wallbangers is very good. I dont know about Price's since I was born in the early 80's. [Big Grin]

Yeah, Old Mexico is pretty good, but there is a new restaurant called Santiagos, which is my favorite. I dont know how new it is though.

Isn't American cheese fake by definition?

Nice name for the restaurant, seeing how all food goes in-n-out. [puke]

Has anyone tried the low carb Doritos yet, I've heard they were testing these somewhere.

Posted by Bill Gabel (Member # 1105) on 05-04-2004, 08:25 PM:

In-N-Out burgers are named perfectly. Eat one of their burgers and in 30 minutes it's out.

All of you should see this new Documentary film called "Super Size Me". The director goes on a one month McDonalds diet. Yes, he eat all three meals at MickeyD's. And in process he gained 25 pounds, lost his sex drive, suffered extreme mood swings and experienced heart pains so bad "It was like somebody put cinder blocks on my chest". He started in New York City and went across America interviewing people. He found the top fattest city was located in Michigan and then the next ones were located in Texas. There was this one guy he interviewed that has eaten over 19,000 Big Macs. (The guy is not fat).

Everyone who eats fast food should see this film.

Now I'm on my way to Wendys. [beer]

The Speedway Diner here in Forsyth has awesome burgers. They are open 24 hours, too. But their real specialty is chicken fried steak. Their slogan is, "We built our pride on chicken fried."

Crisps not chips! Chips is hot food.

When I was a kid, my father owned a steak restaurant called, "Skyway Tavern". His slogan was, "You can't beat our meat!"
