It's true. I'm outside right now and the riots are worse than the Ricardo y mortimero sauce fiasco. Grandmas weeping in the streets, the kids all feral and hopped up on hard monster energy and bubblegum cotton candy vapes.

for those who didn't do any reading, it's only for the newest flavor, avocado salsa verde, which needs to be refrigerated. hot enjoyers need not fear

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's also included in with the limited-time "cantina" menu items, which aren't as good as I remember from way back when they had them on the regular menu. Honestly, I get T-Bell because Diablo sauce is a more effective decongestant than Afrin, and the side effects are somewhat milder than not being able to breathe through my nose.

The old cantina bowls were so tasty! The "power menu" bowl that replaced them were somehow nasty, idk wtf they did but it was a disgusting disappointment every time I decided to give it another go.

The $1.50 Costco hot dog is our last line of defense.

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 29 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fun fact: the $1.50 Costco dog mandate extends to Canada, too. Our currency sucks so we're getting it for basically ONE DOLLAR! Get owned, Americans!

[–] thirtymilliondeadfish@hexbear.net 19 points 7 months ago (1 children)

they do (did?) the same in aus, so we're basically getting it for what, 75c or something

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 25 points 7 months ago

Fuck yeah! Rare American vassal state W! solidarity

[–] CoolYori@hexbear.net 30 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Its because the sauce needs to be kept in a fridge and is not shelf stable. Its a food cost item now.

Aren't all these fast food joints complicit in genocide anyway?

[–] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Charging? For their mid-ass sauces? I could just make my own sauce and burritos both smh

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 19 points 7 months ago (2 children)

They aren’t even hot. If something is called “Diablo” or “volcano” it should be required to have more heat than an out of season jalapeño

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 15 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Aren't they breeding jalapeños to be as unspicy as possible now, too? So that large "hot sauce" (lol) bottlers can dial in their desired heat level with pure capsaicin. You know, instead of actually making a good sauce.

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

They are, and most peppers in a store are bred with heat averse tastes in mind to begin with (the only good habaneros I’ve had were grown by friends).

[–] somename@hexbear.net 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Diablo sauce kinda tastes bad too. Fire sauce is much better.

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Personally I like it, but I’m also a weirdo who like bitter and acidic more than sweet

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's that "slightly spoiled adobo" meets "electric eel jizz" taste that turns people off. I'm still into it; it's better than whatever the fuck McDonald's has been doing with genocidal nugget sauces.

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago

Rick and Morty losers btfo when they find out electric eel jizz is more appetizing than a relabeled sweet and sour sauce

This might be the straw that breaks the camel's back. Revolution is upon us, comrades.

Nationalize Taco Bell. The masses deserve unfettered chalupa.

This is a win for Del Taco

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why would you go to Taco Bell if you can’t get sauce and napkins

[–] context@hexbear.net 9 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Why would you go to Taco Bell

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 18 points 7 months ago (1 children)

vegan options at 2:30 in the morning is probably the best reason someone could have.

i just go to the gas station instead, there's no drive through or baja blast but the line doesn't take 45 minutes

[–] context@hexbear.net 13 points 7 months ago

i hadn't considered that but you raise a valid point

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 13 points 7 months ago

Staff who are at least as stoned as you are, and whose eyes are not clouded with judgment because you are the least weird person they've seen all night. Also cheesy gordita crunches.

The salsa verde ones they had when I was a kid were my favorite back then... Nostalgia makes me want to try this tbh.

And I like avocado but what is this trend where everyone is putting it in their salsa verde???

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago

Ppl like a creamy green salsa ig
