Forget what you’ve been told.
History does repeat itself.
Lightning can strike twice.
And Taco Bueno can massively screw up an order twice in different locations.
You may have read the post on Blogospeer about our last experience at Taco Bueno (yes, he called it Taco Bell, but it was Bueno) where we discovered the miracle of multiplying tacos and chips. Well, tonight, it happened again.
I had dropped the kids off at VBS and decided to stop by Bueno on my way home to pick up a quick meal. I saw the line at the drive-thru and decided to go in and order. I stepped up to the counter, ordered my grande taco platter and cheesecake chimis, and paid. After waiting for over 5 minutes, I stepped up to the counter to find out what was taking so long. By this time, the drive-thru had cleared and a new line had formed at the counter. I happened to notice a worker stuffing platter-looking items into a plastic bag and thought it might be mine. As he kept putting more and more food into the bag, I dearly hoped it wasn’t mine. He came forward to the counter, slid the bag toward me, politely asked if I needed salsa, and wished me a good evening. Noticing the bulging bag of food, I sheepishly took my bag and headed to my car, wondering how in the world I had managed to order so much food.
When I got home, hungry and ready to eat, I started pulling food out of my bag. The first item I pulled out was a tostada. Funny, I didn’t think a tostada came with the grande TACO platter. Then I pulled out not one but TWO bags of chips. Hmm…I didn’t notice that chips were included on the menu. Then there was a bowl of beans. And a soft beef taco. And a chilada platter with two cheese enchiladas, rice, beans, and guacamole. And an extra cup of queso. And some sort of taco platter with a taco, muchaco, and enchilada. Alas, there were no cheesecake chimis inside that bag.
I ate a bite of everything and a few of the chips and called it a meal. I half expected to see one of the disciples heading my way with a basket to collect my leftovers.
So it’s confirmed. That whole story about the loaves and fishes? Really it was tacos and chips from Taco Bueno. Trust me on this.
Bad Girl, It should have BEEN A TACO DELITE night , ya know where the great chips & salsa is made and ya even know the gal that makes them oh what a tangle bag we fill when it ‘s not filled with delite.
hope you had a good meal even if it was NOT taco delite .
