Doritos?

Just a quick note:

What in the ever-loving cheese-topped holy fuckarito is the deal with Taco Bell's new $2.00 value meals? Ataco, a drink, and... a bag of Doritos?

This isn't fucking Subway. I have never sat in a Taco Bell, dining on a pile of warm fried corn and artificial cheese, and said to myself, "You know what this meal needs? Two ounces of bagged cold fried corn and artificial cheese."

If there's a side dish for Taco Bell more cognitively and culinarily dissonant than a bag of Cool Ranch, I can't think of it. Well, OK, maybe some kind of foie GRAS and truffle terrine. But nothing actually within the realm of Taco Bell possibility.

YOU'RE EATING AT FUCKING TACO BELL! TACO BELL!
Alright, I'll calm down now, I have also eaten at Caca Hell a few thousand times in my past. But no more. Because I've finally waken up to the fact that THIS chain, more than any other, does not serve food. They serve garbage, masquerading as food. Maybe someday I'll finally come to my senses about other fast-food chains, and realize that their "food" is no better.

Thanks for irretrievably pointing this out to me, once and for all, 'cause I might have been tempted to sully my palate with their shit once again, had I not been a reader of Forkbastard.

Fun reference

While I totally agree foodwise, and thoroughly enjoy the cheesy fiesta potatoes, no sour cream, myself, I'm surprised it didn't happen earlier, before the Tricon/Yum! spinoff. Granted, PepsiCo wasn't so completely insane about tying Doritos to the beverages then, but I'm pretty sure that value menus were big in the mid-90's, and the little bags are nothing if not extremely handy.
