I would hate to be you the morning after 20 tacos :)

It’s my assumption that it is not entirely legit as it seems, and there is probably a scheme behind this taco deal. An assumption, but a starting point to uncover why it’s once a week on Tuesday. I came up with the analogy when I realized that every time I go to Del taco, on Tuesday, I get maybe 15-30 tacos for a good price. However, when I eat them, they are poorly made, no cheese, and little meat. Okay, whatever, it’s a deal, right? However, the taco shells are stale and old. Wait a minute, hold on a second. Why are they always old and stale? Now, it would be such a simple matter of fact to say that ingredients get old. Some don’t get used, and they have to throw them out. But an exception! How about, we sell them for an extremely cheap price right before shipment comes in so we can still make money off of them, rather than throwing them out. Could that possibly be it? I don’t remember if I read any slogans or quotes saying they use the freshest ingredients. It’s only an assumption anyway, a pretty damn good one though. So keep in mind, all deals might have a catch, and in fact, most deals have a catch.

[...] Last night, jeff, paul.za, greg and I hit up two modern classics of the fast food industry: Del Taco’s Taco Tuesday and McDonalds’ Tuesday McNugget special. A total of twenty-one tacos and forty-two nuggets were purchased and devoured (by no means a record), eight and twelve by me; over a period of approximately thirty minutes I consumed about 1950 Calories.

For the curious, today is again Tuesday, and I got taken down by six tacos and a half-pound bean and cheese burrito. It’s those beans – way too filling. I should have known better.

The training is an interesting point — but I think that a big dinner the day before is in order — I always seem hungrier the next day. Though I suppose hungrier doesn’t necessarily mean able to eat more!

Hm… interesting point. That probably is the way to go. I think, though, I’m gonna go it cold. It’s more of a challenge that way (plus I’m cheap).

I bet it is like running a marathon. So, if you are doing it the Tuesday after Easter, you better start strecthing out your stomach. Since you have started with 9 already, next week, plan on doing 11, then add on 2/3 every week until you reach something like 17 (you never want to do a full 20 until the ONE time you are doing it). Now, the key is to start toning down like 2 weeks before. So, the week before, you just do like 5 for fun. The only problem is that you may get really really tired of taco in 2 weeks. (and maybe eating 20 tacos and running a marathon are totally 2 different things. But, they do share the same theme of pushing your limits, right?)

That’s why I like you, you’re always thinking. Tuesday it is. That way, I can waste Wednesday being sick as a dog rather than wasting one of my oh-so-precious Saturdays or Sundays.
