zesty_pinto: (FOOD)
Purchased: Around the same time Price Choppers stops caring that people might be buying things and they start restocking all the groceries

Box opened: Right after we realized through experience that our hunger-fueled drive to the hotel made our eyes much larger than our stomachs.

Taquito 1: consumed in a taste test to see if they would be acceptable.

Taquito 2: consumed right after a taste test because they were indeed acceptable.

Taquito 3: consumed because my god I know I wanted something to eat while we were on the road but there are 19 of these things.

Taquito 4: Michelle asked to try one.

Taquito 5: devoured even though I am still technically getting really full.

Taquito 6: Oh god, it's like eating air.

Taquito 7: Michelle notes how she thinks the taquitos are better than most of the other frozen things we got as she downs another.

Taquito 8: One last one just to see if it could be done. Conclusion? It could be done.

Taquito 9: consumed because I promised at the supermarket that I would eat all of them, damn it, and I'm going to cook the rest of these with this tiny hotel microwave no matter what.

Taquito 10: devoured in the hotel, because Michelle said the birthday party was not likely to have any "real food" there.

Taquito 11: One more for the road with the fear of the birthday party in mind.

Taquito 12: Michelle needed something too and it beat eating all the mozzarella sticks.

Taquito 13: Taken after giftwrapping a bunch of presents that were bought long before thanks to Toys R Us.

Taquito 14: Quietly munched on while hoping no one driving by notices.

Taquito 15: Eaten in an attempt to tamp down appetite despite how several hours in the sun has ruined its crispiness because a lunch of veggie sticks and hummus can only keep you going so far no matter what your prediabetes makes you feel.

Taquito 16: Taken in a fancy hotel as a victory snack.

Taquito 17: Eaten while waiting for a big dim sum delivery while watching TV on an awesome bed.

Taquito 18: Eaten because the fridge in the hotel froze everything else even though it was left out of the fridge and was now cold and unsatisfactory.

Taquito 19: Taken again to hold back the appetite of a long road trip despite being exhausted.

Taquito 20: Given to Michelle because we ran out of mozzarella sticks and the service station we stopped at was terrible, but at least there's a diner along the way that has promise.

Taquito 21: Eaten as the final marker of our arrival back home, but downed with the dignity of being reheated in our home's microwave to bring it some dignity.

Review: The box of 21 taquitos is a great value and is strangely addicting. Enjoyable even after microwaving with the plastic container for some supermarket chicken wings. The crunchiness promised an enjoyable experience only ruined by five hours in the sun in a hot car. Serving suggestions I would recommend include sour cream, salsa, and not after several hours of outside exposure in a car.
