I understand it's late. Even though you stay open till like 4am, your workers are still tired. I mean come one, who wouldn't be? You guys are only human.
I realize things aren't working out the way you planned. When you were a kid you sure as hell didn't tell the other boys and girls that you wanted to be a Taco Bell employee when you grew up, you had other plans, like being an astronaut or a fireman, then when you got older you threw away those childhood obsessions and picked something you loved like being a singer or an engineer. But things have been more difficult than you thought they would be.
Now you work at Taco Bell, and it's embarrassing. You try to play it off like you're fine with it, but really every minute that passes by while you're behind the register eats away at your heart. When you have family gatherings around the holidays, and your uncles and aunts ask you where you're working, you have to say Taco Bell. You give it your best shot to sound enthused, but you just can't utter the tone, and you feel even worse when you're relatives try to sound encouraging, but you can feel the patronization dripping from their tongues as they look awkwardly at your parents, who can only turn their heads in shame.
I understand that.
I really do.
+ Show Spoiler +BUT WHEN I SAY NO ONIONS ON MY FUCKING BURRITO I DO NOT MEAN CHOP UP A WHOLE FUCKING VIDALIA WANNABE AND SHOVE IT IN MY FOOD!!!! >___<

If that spoiler was not there at the end I would not have been satisfied. Taco Bell got 99 problems and your onions aren't one.
|
If they put Vidalias in there, you shouldn't be complaining. Considering you're in Texas, however, I strongly doubt they put in Vidalias. Most likely a version of the Texas Sweets, which are based on the Vidalia but not the same and definitely aren't as bad as a generic white or yellow onion, but certainly are no Vidalia.
I typically hate raw onions, too, but I'd munch a real Vidalia like an apple, man, those things are good.

i agree I know how good vidalia's are, but i dont think theyre in season right now
i had to use the term vidalia's because in the comic formula the second iteration of a synonym should be at least a different word, preferably more complex.

Dude, forget taco bell. IHOP is the place to be when you're drunk/high in college station. IHOP or Taco C or occasionally Whataburger. You'll run into people you haven't seen in months who are also drunk/high and going for fast food.

I really want taco bell now

They're fairly early into their season (I have some green ones in the fridge; dried ones are just getting to be plentiful around here now).
"Bulb" should have sufficed, btw, and wouldn't have served as defamatory to an amazing foodstuff!

why haven't i seen a single monion joke

Dude if I worked at taco bell I would be as incompetent as possible just to see what I could get away with without being fired. It would be fun.
|
I kept looking around for the "but" statement. I kept semi-conciously noticing that spoiler tag and wondering what was in it. I almost left the blog thinking you would leave it on a positive sentiment. Then in passing i saw the red all-caps text, and was like "oh."
|
vidalia? yeah, right.
i bet the onion doesn't even have a varietal name attached to it.
it's just "onion."

This makes me so happy that I live in San Diego. We have awesome 24/7 mexican food.

my mexican food could kick your mexican food's ass.
mexico is literally right there o.o

I thought this would be a bet about Taco Bell vs. IHOP or something

At least you got food. Showed up once and the people go, "Just so you know, we're out of beef, chicken, and nacho cheese."

Here's one of my college staples that is cheaper per serving, much more healthy, and only requires minimal assembly (not even cooking!):
Ingredients (not exact measures, play around with it to your liking):
Croissant
Canned, drained Tuna (college budget, haha)
Sesame oil
Salt/Pepper
Celery
1. Dice celery into small pieces.
2. Drain the tuna.
3. Assemble everything
4. Put it on a croissant.
If you have a friend with Costco membership, you can buy decent croissants by the dozen for fairly cheap. Canned tuna is great on sale and tastes good, celery is cheap as fuck, you can steal salt/pepper from your food court, and sesame oil is a few dollars for a bottle (and you use maybe 1/100 of an entire bottle per sandwich).
It's also decently low in fat (croissant adds the most), but has a lot of protein and decent vitamins/minerals from the tuna. Celery is just for taste...I suppose it adds a negligible amount of fiber?
Seriously, this takes like 2 minutes to assemble, is much tastier than anything at Taco Bell, and is much better for you as well.
If you want more cheap college kid recipes, just ask. I have tons (lots of them involve sandwich presses and ingredients you can steal from food courts rofl).

I always hate those who asks for a special treatment for cheap fastfood. Fast food chains are not doing those tacos or burgers one by one for each individual customer. They are doing them in masses so if you dont want onion go to a proper restaurant and ask for your fucking taco there.

ehh maybe where you live. If I go to even McDonalds where I live if you order a burger they ask "pickles and onions?" half of the time. FagKrag could use a few reading lessons though lol

Hmm, if you can make the investment in one of those sandwich presses (the kind that are like grills...like a panini press. They're not that expensive), you can steal bread from food courts, vegetable ingredients from the salad bar, and just have to buy some freshly sliced cheese from a store (good sandwich cheeses are smoky ones such as Gouda or Havarti) and make yourself a great panini:
It only costs a few dollars because of the cheese.
Ingredients:
Stolen whole-grain sliced bread of some sort (breakfast area)
Stolen spinach or mesclun mix (salad bar)
Stolen cherry tomatoes (cut these in half yourself...salad bar)
Stolen cut zucchini (salad bar)
Stolen mushrooms (salad bar)
Stolen cut peppers (salad bar)
Good cheese (buy this, rofl).
Butter (might be able to steal this if your food court has those little butter pats).
1. Butter the outside of the bread, and assemble ingredients into the inside of the sandwich.
2. If you can't figure this out you're fucking stupid.
Yeah a lot of these involve stolen food and basic assembly skills.
If you're paying $50k a year you sure as hell better get something out of school (besides a network and a degree).

McDonalds always assumes pickles and onions here.
Also the one on campus doesn't even have a dollar menu because most of the kids who go here are offensively rich (think trust fund kids ish) and couldn't care less because food points come on your student ID and you can easily go to the golf club and spend six hundred dollars on food with your friends in one meal. All on food points, of course.
The only cool thing they have going (besides being open 24 hours) is the nuggbucket, which is a bucket of fifty chicken nuggets. Epic drunk food.

As marginal as it may be, however, there -is- a difference in expected service between chains such as Taco Bell and chains such as Chipotle.
Going to sleep now <_<

Don't fuck with mOnion's food yo.

LOL. I love drunk food. In Austin they just put in a Whataburger right next to campus 2 weeks ago. It has been completely packed at every time of the day with the driveway packed into the street. Seriously, it was packed at 4:30 AM on Saturday O_O.

That looks delicious. Which burrito has onions in it? I only eat the cheapest ones so I don't have the luxury of eating fresh vegetables in my food.
