OT: McGangBang review/ Pacific Shrimp tacos
I finally tried the McGangBang, which is an abomination consisting of a McChicken sandwich inserted into the middle of a double cheeseburger. My expectations were low, but I was actually pleasantly surprised. The mayo from the chicken contributes to the flavor of the double cheeseburger, while the pickles from the double cheeseburger compliment the mechanically separated chicken nicely. I recommend it as a post Lent reward.
Has anyone tried "Pacific Shrimp Taco?" Like Mikey, I'll eat anything, but Taco Bell shrimp has put the fear of God in me. I don't think I can do it.
I've heard the shrimp tacos are decent, but in my opinion, one should never eat shrimp from Taco Bell.
Has anyone had the big mac snack wrap? Any good?
Mac Snack wrap: not very good.
I've only tried it once though, as I've been on a 1 man boycott of McDonalds over their Filet O Fish marketing campaign. I hate that song with a passion.
Agree on the Mac Snack wrap. I've tried it three times now, because their marketing is so ridiculous, it actually makes me want to keep trying it.
My take :
Hamburgers are best hot. With the cooler lettuce, in addition to a not heated flour tortilla, and a small portion of warm burger, the temperature is just not right. The mixing of the burger and the cooler flour tortilla is what leads to the failure.
If anyone wants to try it though, it's not AWFUL. As I said, I've had it three times now.
The fish just wants his insides back, man. If the most annoying jingle in the world might help, I don't blame him for going that route.
If I could punch a song in the face, it would be the Filet-O-Fish song.
Hell must sound like.
I have always found her oddly kinda hot.
And I know I'm wrong.
It might just be all those dumb girls with no future that I never realized when I was younger would be so easy...

She has a tight body, and seems slutty and slightly desperate, hot stuff.
I mean she's not taking college courses online in pj's girl-
But she's got a catchier tune.
Though I just found out I like the Spanish version better...
I sort of like that jingle.
Last year it became an inside joke with a few friends that has returned with fury this year.
...for the Mac Snack Wrap.
McDonald's serves the Mac Wrap for only $1.50; it has just 330 calories, 210 fewer than the Big Mac. The wrap offers a familiar taste without the guilt, but that's not to say it's good for you. More than half its calories come from fat, and a single Mac Wrap has 690 mg of sodium — almost as much as in an entire Quarter Pounder (730 mg). One Mac Wrap contains 46% of your recommended daily allowance of salt. Public-health advocates will surely assail the company for creating the wrap, partly because you have to eat two to feel full (at which point you would have been better off ordering one Big Mac).
If it were you in that sandwich, you wouldn't be laughing at aaaaallllllll....

I've heard that on the radio a million times, but never seen the live commercial. I just had to assume it was one of those wall fish singing it. Not sure what the dudes just hanging out are doing listening to his laments.
My wife absolutely hates this commercial (even more so, seeing I sing it to her in the car...where she can't escape it). I had to play it for her a couple of times on youtube before closing just to scrape the nails down the chalkboard one more time. It's really amazing she still stands to be with me.
Good little ditty nonetheless. Gimme back that filet-o-fish, gimme that fish. Once it's in there, you just can't get it out.

are a bitch man! Wait...what?
I really want to try the Pacific Shrimp Tacos, but I went yesterday to the location at 94 and State Street and they told me it would be 15 minutes for them to prepare the shrimp. I left.
Additionally, they're $2.79 a pop which is pretty expensive for a taco, me thinks.
darn tasty, but at 2.79 + tax, they are wee bit small -- about three bites. i'll stick with the bean burritos at .99.
the Macadangdang.
But I agree that shrimp from Taco Bell is a bridge too far for me.
No more posts like this unless it involves some Iris.
Or st least the proposed Macadangdanggangbang.
(God, that must sound even greater spoken than written).
You tried.
It kinda rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?
Around these parts, I've heard it called a McBitchin'. Never had one myself, though. Can feel my arteries clogging just reading your description of it.
Everyone should try one. I'm boring and like plain burgers so mine looks a little weak, but it was very good.
cut yer hair ya dang hippie
this was after a haircut.
What is up with the roll bars in the car you're riding in? Modified dune buggy?
one must take every precaution.
97-06 Jeep Wrangler, hard top, full doors, the padding on the rollbar means it had dual tops - the cut outs are for the soft top door frames.
Yep, my inner car-dork just popped out... I've got a '98, it's my avatar

Impressive. I'm like this, but with chevy cavaliers (not impressive).
Usually you insert something other than a McChicken in a gang bang, but who am I to judge?
Isn't this where your McNugget goes?
Yeah, I really do like Taco Bell and I love shrimp but I am not sure I can try out the Pacific Shrimp taco. Hopefully somebody has tried it and can give us a firsthand review.
shrimp from taco bell is terrifying
It all tastes good post 2am... tastes better when you make your cabbie run through drive through
Crustations + Fast food = NO
Like the classic McHomard for anyone thats been to a Dick's in Quebec.
If you like seafood tacos Waho's Fish Tacos are pretty much the best in the world, as WolvinLA could probably tell you, but then, you know, you would have to go to SoCal to get them.
I've had the shrimp tacos they were pretty good.
Taco Bell is owned by the same company as Long John Silvers, Yum Brands. I would assume that their shrimp would have similar quality for the two restaurants.
Just some food for thought.
I'm willing to think about shrimp from Taco Bell. But I'm not willing to eat it.
the guy who came up with the idea of the McGangBang was when he thought of it.
To me, it seems as though it would be a lot easier to fake beef than it would be to fake shrimp. Not that I'm going to eat a shrimp taco anytime soon, but I would personally be more scared of putting that grade F angus down my gullet.

I don't trust taco hell's shrimp. But it looked good on the comercial.
