Sometimes you just gotta go out. Those of you who are as old as me will remember a time when government didn’t infringe upon our rights to kill ourselves with fast food. Do remember the time when McDonald’s served fries deep fried in oil that made them taste good? Do you remember when they used to serve hot (albeit very bad) coffee? How about those wonderful deep fried turnovers; apple which usually ended up with you peeling the skin off the roof of your mouth and cherry with which you were lucky to avoid any broken teeth due to pits. Ah those apple pies…dripping with grease…and flavor! Now they are these mushy, cake-like, tasteless carbo bombs. To me, food is like go karting…if you can’t hurt yourself with it, it’s not worth doing. So here’s a tip for all you who miss those days when food was meant to enjoy; not be a healthy, dietary supplement to your day.
Today I had a Caramel Apple Empanada at Taco Bell. It inspired this blog and gave me a flashback to better culinary times (if you can call a deep fried turnover culinary). This thing was awesome…a heart attack in a crispy turnover shell. Go to Taco Bell and have one…just don’t have one for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. And don’t even think about suing me for recommending it. If you don’t know fast food is bad for you by now, have a nice life…until you’re 58. The Taco Bell
