I might be onto something here. Every time I go to Taco Bell, I am usually always asked if I want sauce. I assume that it’s Taco Bell policy to ask customers if they would like sauce. Makes sense, it’s a nice gesture.

But.

Have you noticed the ABUNDANCE of sauce packets that they actually give you? I am usually handed 20 packets easy. Even if I order a Bel Grande combo and that only comes with one damn taco. I mean, how much sauce does one actually need? It doesn’t make sense.

I think I know what’s going on here though. I think, this is the work of some really sneaky genius marketing people at Taco Bell.

I believe that Taco Bell gives you an outrageous number of sauce packets, because many people will feel that there are just too many to throw away. I mean after all, it’s like a 4 dollar thing of Texas Pete thats how many they goddamn give you. So, what do you do? You stick them in a place with all the other shit like that.

Then, this is fundament of Taco Bell’s genius. Here’s what transpires:

It’s getting late.

There is shit in the fridge. You thumb around looking for snacks.

Oh, a gigantic fucking load of fire sauce. Man, if only I had tacos to put that shit on.

Mmm, tacos.

And next thing you know, off to Taco Bell you go.

So with this logic in mind, one cannot help but to focus on the actual per-packet cost of a Taco Bell hot sauce. I am really, really interested to know, just how much a Taco Bell pays for 1 individual fire sauce.

Because it seems to me, that the cost of the packet is so small, that it pales in cost to advertise in your home, sans the television. I think that Taco Bell knows that once you see a fire sauce, that you will be eating tacos within 15 minutes.

These are questions that I would really like to have answered. I’m going to email Taco Bell with hopes that they will provide us all with the information we crave.

Long Live 4th meal.

Alright well that sure didn’t take long. A few days back I thought it would be a cool idea to talk about how awesome fast food really is. Well, being a believer in the age old saying “you can do anything you set your mind to” we now have a killer fast food website to complain about shit like:

• Asking for Fire sauce and getting Mild sauce
• Having your Fry Pod upthefucksidedown when you get home
• Catching whoever does your order on a bad day

But, nobody needs too much negativity, that’s why we can chat about the perks of fast food, such as:

• The milkshake machine ACTUALLY working
• When the district manager or some big wig is training a new manager, and the food resembles the pictures
• When you can clearly and intelligibly hear the person in the speaker

Shit like that. So don’t delay head over to Fast Food Loves Me! and if you are awesome, you will share your fast food thoughts!
