Is there a better lunch deal in the world than Taco Bell? I mean, it was great BEFORE the advent of their big-ass menu items. A fistful of 79 cent tacos went a long way in being tasty and filling.

But now, they have the Mexican food bane of my existence: The beef and potato burrito. I don't know which advertising genius thought of this, but I would like to thank that person for making my life complete.

Let's be honest. The beef and potato burrito is about as mexican as a waffle or a choco taco. But it is perfection in a tortilla, and at just over a buck and a quarter, you could really fill up with just two of these bad boys.

I like to go overboard, so for me it's the beef and potato burrito plus four soft tacos with no lettuce, which reminds me. The beef and potato burrito's only vegetable is some chives, and I'm not even sure those are vegetables. They're just things that you don't notice stuck in your teeth.

Anyway, it's almost time to celebrate the office's October birthdays with a big honking piece of chocolate cake with cream cheese icing and pudding filling.

Enjoy your Atkins diets, everyone. I am on the less popular Claude Akins diet.

Peace out.
