Pet Peeve of the Day
Taco Bell closes at 9:00 p.m. on weeknights! What kind of self-respecting fast food joint closes that early?!
Here's the deal... every two or three months, I do a big grocery shop at Superstore. I hate Superstore. But their prices make a convincing argument. So I make a deal with myself: if I go grocery shopping at Superstore, then I bribe myself with supper at the Taco Bell that's in the same shopping centre (there's no Taco Bell in the city centre so, strange or plebeian as it sounds, that really is a treat for me). But tonight took a little longer than usual since they've completely rearranged the Superstore that I shop at and I couldn't find a damn thing (before the Taco Bell incident, that would have been my pet peeve). Anyway, I finally finished my shopping and went with a relieved heart to reward myself with yummy faux-Mexican fast food, got there at 9:13 p.m. and it was locked and dark!!!!! Rassa frassa fricka fracka... arghh!

First (and last) time I had anything at Taco Bell, it was somewhere in Ontario. Don't know why they don't have a franchise here in Qweebek.
Wouldn't mind the occasional faux-Mexican food now and then. Would still beat Mikey Ds any day.

The whole regional thing always weirds me out with regard to chain businesses. Here in Alberta, Taco Time seems to far outnumber Taco Bell, plus it has all the mall food court contracts so Taco Bell is forced into suburbs. But IMHO Taco Time is but a limping competitor in the faux-Mexican fast food race. Do they have any alternatives to either of these in Quebec? (Qweebek... LOL!)
