Taco Wars

I am pretty well known in Taco circles. Back in 1998 I was on a road to eating double digit tacos in one sitting. I had just finished number 10 and wanted more and even though I was now blind I had the 11th put together anyways. Since I couldn't quite get a visual on it or chew anymore, I had it juiced. I drank it. Oh yeah I drank it hard.

In Today's Province is the riveting story of how one third rate conglomerate is trying to bully the little guy. This story is only going to deal bad press to Taco Time for picking on a local shop. I can understand trying to protect a slogan like "Taco Time, where the tacos are so god damn fantastic!". But by taking the word Taco and slapping it on the day of the week it sounds best with shouldn't be trademarked. Newsflash Taco Time, it hasn't been working for you at all. What might work is mopping your disgusting floors or make a Taco that tastes half decent. Oh and Taco Time perhaps you check out what happens when you google Taco Tuesdays..

And to Casa de Amigos, maybe do "Taco Chewsday" or even better and at no charge, "Casa de Amigos, where the tacos are so god damn fantastic!". .

This is Hot: Take the Taco Challenge -- eat 12 or more tacos and get a sumbrero on the ceiling! Or better yet... beat the record holder and receive bragging rights! Ask your server what the record holder is.

This is a real Mexican standoff! I think most people are going to support the smaller company. they probably have better food, anyway.
