Forums >Off the Beaten Path>I'm dumping him.
In the "it isn't Taco Bell" battle for regional fast food with Taco in the name.... Taco Villa (Texas) > Taco Bueno (more widespread) > Taco Time (Pacific Northwest) > Taco Johns (plains) > big big big gap > Taco Bell. Ok then. Beer will miss you. But ultimately it will lead to goodness. (I did not count Taco Del Mar, because that's a "burrito as big as your head" place. Different list.) Explanation for PNW folks: Taco Time would rank higher, but Taco Time is spendy. Better ingrediments, but spendy.

Del Taco?

I haven't been to a Del Taco in a long time, though randomly there is one (and ONLY one) near Seattle, but I recall them being more on the Taco Bell end than the Taco Villa end. Times may have changed.
When I was a kid, there were Del Tacos all over Dallas. Then they all went away, like the cat in the hat.
(on a different list, I have never been to an In-n-out, five guys, nor steak and shake)

Definitely more on the Taco Bell end. Really GREAT at 2:30 am. Although the after effects the next day can be disastrous!!!
In-N-Out is more of a 10 am the day after establishment in my opinion. The lines were usually fairly long on Sunday mornings waiting for them to open. Not that I would know...
Just blame men. It's easier.

Sadly - Yes But happily I recognize this - So certian things just are not kept in the house. Right now beer is one of them.

Well, dh and his friends are the ones who got me started drinking beer, so yes.....this works for me!
At least 80% of the time it's my DH bringing wine or beer into the house...yep, I'm gonna have to blame him, as well.

My wife is a "Normie" = Normal person and can have 1 beer each night and be happy.
Mine is too, that's one of the reasons I quit.
Bottom line. I never tried to quit or cut back. Once I did try, I found myself oddly annoyed at stopping at one. Scary, eh? Sadly, it was easier to just not drink at all.
So, what does a binger like me do? I picked up dark chocolate.

So certain things just are not kept in the house.
Cereal. Doesn't matter the kind. I love everything including the uber-healthy, colon-blow, bran nuggets/flakes/twigs. Any box of cereal that enters the house is gone in a day. I don't even need milk. I can't buy it anymore.

That's hilarious.
I too have a cereal addiction. And it goes way back. I got hooked in the dorm cafeteria. It started with Capn Crunch. One sitting, one box. These days it could be bran flakes, Honey Bunches of Oh!, hippie dippie puffins, whatever. If I have it, I will eat it. All of it.
Except Raisin Bran.
That shit's nasty.

It's sad to think of all the sugary cereal we ate when we were kids. I'm talking King Vitamin, Count Cocula, Boo Berry, Coco Puffs, you name it. My favorite was Coco Crispies. I loved it when the milk turned chocolate!
I also remember putting so much suger in my Cheerios, that I could spoon it up when the cereal was gone. How healthy!
Captain Crunch is a roof of your mouth killer.
This is my problem. It doesn't help that I like to include beer with my favorite activities. Many of my household task are tied to the number of beers it takes to complete. Mowing the yard is a 3 beer job. Helping with the dishes is 1 Helping with the laundry is load dependant but I can usually fold two loads to 1 beer Changing the oil in the car is 1, if the neighbor helps it's 6 This weekend I need to clean the gutters...I suspect this will take at least 6 beers. Sweeping the garage is 2 Organizing the garage is a 12 pack. This summer I'm building a new detached garage...I've been in contact with the distributor.

Yep! We do this in our household too. How much beer we buy for the weekend depends on what chores are being done around the house Chore beer + relaxing on the deck beer = total weekend beer consumption
Weeding, digging and planting my garden Sunday took 8. My husband was building some planter boxes for me and that took him a whole 12 pack, LOL.
I (luckily?) didn't get hooked on the hopped up cereal until college. We were super poor when I was a kid... and brefass usually consisted of white rice. On which we dumped spoons and spoons of sugar and parkay margarine.
I suspect the Capn Crunch and King Vitamin were healthier. Heh.
I don't like watermelon either. But that's because of a post-watermelon puke adventure. It comes out pretty much like it goes in. And, in my case, I was amazed by how many seeds I had consumed.
