Disagree on both.
- Disagree with Troy's "Tex Mex Prophecy," even though I like tex mex. Their spread may have something to do with the amount of people who have been freely crossing the border, not because it is particularly good.
- Desserts should not be on that list. That's candy.
- Fries are iffy, as valid items for this list. They are side dishes, unless it is something like a barbecue place selling "Loaded Memphis Fries topped with a pound of pulled pork," or something like that.
- I don't think McD's fries are the best, ever. They were the best back when they were cooking them in beef tallow, but then a vegetarian complained, once. If I HAD to choose.... I would go with the Wendy's fries about a year ago when they switched over to "hand cut sea salt," or whatever it was. They were really great back then, but I think they cut back on costs somewhere. Or I just got used to them.
- I read somewhere that Taco Bell quietly became the healthiest fast food joint out there, I read they got an actual nutritionist in charge of their menu and suddenly they have all kinds of "cantina" and "fresco" items for sale. So, that's kind of neat. Right now I like the XXL steak burrito.
