Okay, so I usually try to make it to the neighborhood Pizza Hut™/Taco Bell® location before midnight. In addition to the fact that they stop serving personal pan pizza after that, druggies on bicycles tend to start dropping like flies around the restaurant as the night wears on. Also, after 1 a.m., the line starts backing up big time.
But regardless of the time, I almost always order a #6 combo (which consists of a taco and two chalupas) with beef and nacho cheese. So this night, I was disturbed to find that I had been given two soft tacos instead. Luckily, I had not yet left McCully Shopping Center, so I turned right back into the drive-thru, to straighten things out.
I explained the error, and the drive-thru cashier offered “Yes, you wanted Gorditas, right?” I looked at the menu again. “No, I wanted chalupas. There is no gordita option in a #6 combo,” I explained, quite irritated.
So I exchange my soft tacos (which I assume were actually gorditas - I’ve never actually eaten a gordita before) for what appeared to be chalupas. When I get back home, low and behold there is chicken — freakin’ chicken — in my chalupas!!!
First of all, I had initially asked for beef and nacho cheese in my chalupas... which is what I always order. But even if the drive-thru cashier didn’t ask whether I preferred beef, steak, or chicken... the default should always be beef!
What the hell are these guys smoking?

People who form FIRM opinions with so little knowledge only pretend to be open-minded. They select their facts like food from a buffet. David R. Dow
Pizza Hut/Taco Bell/KFC is the largest fast-food business in the world, bigger than McDonalds.
Wow really? I thought mcdonalds is like the biggest among the fast food business. But I'd choose pizza hut, taco bell, or KFC over mcdonalds anyway. There's nothing really good in mcdonalds for me except chicken nuggets and mcflurry. Their burgers and french fries suck.

What's the hype with the McRib? It tastes like a manapua with an American style sauce.

Perhaps McD is largest when including the franchises? Yum also owns Long John Silvers and A&W aside from PH, TB, and KFC.
Yum! Brands, Inc., based in Louisville, Ky., is the world's largest fast food restaurant company in terms of system units — over 35,000 restaurants around the world in more than 110 countries and territories.
Useless factoid, Yum's HQ is in Irvine and their lunch cafeteria consists of all their brands. This is where they peddle their new products to their employees as a trial center to see what kind of feedback they get. So I guess as a perk for an employee, free fast food. Downside, guinea pig.
whhhhaaat?! There is a LJS/A&W combo out there?!! Ooooooooh.
We used to have one at the Moanalua Shopping Center before they tore down the old strip mall.

We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only only only
Nobody believes me when I tell them that the Long John Silvers/A&W employees once wore uniforms that had one side of the jacket LJS and the other side A&W.
