February 24th
0:07
2023. there's a Vespa where's it at
0:10
right there
0:12
cool cute little Vespa right down here
0:14
celebration wearing an appropriate
0:16
t-shirt
0:18
I will be doing a fast food review today
0:21
something I have never done now I have
0:24
eaten a Taco Bell numerous times over
0:26
the course of my life and I've eaten a
0:28
Del Taco a few times
0:30
today they're going to go head to head
0:32
on Highway 192 there are both
0:35
establishments I'm going to go through
0:37
the drive-through
0:38
get certain items from one place and
0:41
then similar items from the other spot
0:42
and then find a place to sit and eat or
0:45
maybe stand and eat sit or stand and
0:48
consume them and give my thoughts and
0:51
feed my belly I'm inviting you to join
0:54
me
0:55
feels good out here it's warm
0:58
but it feels good
1:00
shall we and just to clarify I guess it
1:02
might have been a little confusing I
1:04
have done fast food reviews before just
1:06
not both taco places at the same time
1:09
that's what I meant to say
1:12
Taco Bell and Del Taco
1:16
Head to Head
1:18
now in comparison to other areas of the
1:20
country Florida does not well at least
1:22
Orlando does not have a whole heck of a
1:24
lot of Del Tacos in fact this might be
1:27
the only movie the second one I've seen
1:28
there's one on International Drive
1:30
kind of over near Universal and you know
1:32
that whole iDrive area that was the
1:34
first one I'd seen this other one kind
1:36
of sprung up as well
1:39
there's definitely more Taco Bells the
1:42
helicopter going by oh that's the
1:43
helicopter from where the Magic Castle
1:45
was the hotel that used to be Magic
1:46
Castle
1:47
the Florida project there's also no one
1:50
in this line so
1:53
it is 1 pm
1:55
Prime noon and there's not one person in
1:58
the Del Taco on Highway 192
2:00
drive-through
2:07
thank you Susan don't talk if you have
2:07
any further order yeah it's Adam
2:09
golden ready
2:12
can I do the number one
2:14
is this the mule I'll do the number one
2:16
meal the two tacos with everything
2:18
everything you normally put on it
2:21
and a Coke
2:30
all right we normally don't put sour
2:30
cream on it sour cream today sour cream
2:32
would be good yeah
2:34
so we're gonna have the number one
2:35
because sour cream can I also do
2:38
whatever whatever your equivalent to
2:40
like a burrito supreme would be just
2:41
like a burrito with everything on it
2:44
all right I have to narrow that down for
2:46
me uh
2:49
you have a choice of burritos I don't
2:51
know which one you're interested in
2:53
uh burrito like a a beef a beef burrito
2:57
with everything on it and everything you
2:58
would normally put on it
3:06
your parents the number 10 burrito what
3:06
else we're gonna make fresh for you
3:07
today
3:08
okay yeah the number 10 burrito okay I
3:10
think that's gonna be it so just the
3:11
number one and then the number ten
3:18
um
3:18
okay thank you
3:21
so I ordered the number one which is two
3:22
regular tacos with everything on it so
3:24
it'd be like a taco supreme I guess you
3:26
could call it
3:28
I got a Coke this comes with fries which
3:30
is kind of unusual you get tacos with
3:32
fries and then I also got
3:34
the number one non-meal at least I don't
3:37
know maybe maybe I ordered the meal but
3:39
the non-meal which is like a burrito
3:41
with everything on okay I'm gonna tell
3:42
you the first thing I don't like but I
3:45
love about this drive-through experience
3:48
the fact that when they handed me the
3:50
two bags they said here's bag one and
3:53
bag two
3:54
so sometimes when you go
3:56
to a fast food place they just hand you
3:58
a bag and if you've ordered more than a
3:59
couple things you don't know if there's
4:01
more arriving
4:03
so I Gotta Give a Little Little props to
4:07
Del Taco
4:09
for letting that happen also the wizard
4:11
is right over there check out the wizard
4:14
a moving van just went by but
4:23
it already smells pretty dang good
4:23
I know you have your eye on this wizard
4:29
wizard Bigfoot you think the wizard
4:30
likes tacos is he more of a Taco Bell or
4:31
a Del Taco Guy
4:34
I know which one you are no spoiler
4:36
about time yeah your secret's safe with
4:37
me and if I had to say these are
4:39
probably about a mile from each other
4:41
I'm running parallel to Highway 192 now
4:43
next to this give this Thomas said
4:46
Disney Disney
4:48
gift shop
4:49
Taco Bell's right up here on the left
4:51
and on a Friday afternoon at 108 p.m now
4:55
one person in the Taco Bell on Highway
4:58
192 drive through
5:01
line
5:03
evidently Highway 192 does not have a
5:06
bustling fast food
5:10
demand
5:10
at least for tacos going to attempt to
5:13
order more or less the same thing kind
5:15
of sort of the same thing that I got
5:17
from the other spot
5:25
hello can I get a number one
5:25
the three crunchy Taco Supremes
5:28
with a oh you have you have Pepsi right
5:31
yes one of the three current number one
5:33
supreme combo with a Pepsi yes please
5:35
okay okay and then what's your um oh my
5:38
gosh you already told me sorry then what
5:40
else and then I'm gonna do a burrito
5:42
supreme
5:43
okay and that's it you want a new sauce
5:47
today I'll do just a mixture of sauces
5:49
maybe a couple of each a little bit of
5:50
everything that's gonna be 13.96 okay
5:52
thank you so much
5:58
okay what I order from Del Taco well I
5:58
think it came to 17 or 18 what I ordered
6:00
from here was what she just stated
6:02
thirteen dollars thirteen change this
6:05
will also be a nice test and how well
6:08
the paper bags hold Heat
6:10
because it took probably
6:13
10 maybe 12 minutes to get back over
6:15
here to Celebration
6:16
you know parked over there walked across
6:19
that bridge
6:20
near the tennis courts there is a an
6:23
area here that's shaded but this is kind
6:24
of nice too because this tree here
6:26
provides some shade when I was walking
6:28
one of the bags ripped
6:30
so two bags for Del Taco one bag for
6:33
Taco Bell two beverages it worked out
6:35
perfectly I wasn't planning this but one
6:37
is Pepsi and one is Coke
6:40
so Pepsi is
6:43
what is Pepsi Del Taco's Coke and Taco
6:46
Bell is Pepsi so a little taste test of
6:49
that as well this is one of the Del Taco
6:51
bags so you can see the fries down in
6:53
there so I procured this table and I'm
6:55
gonna do the little food review right
6:57
here
6:59
it's really warm out in the sun but nice
7:01
in the shade start off with a little
7:03
unboxing got two straws because I got
7:05
two Beverages and it might be a little
7:07
bit of a wind issue but
7:09
this is what we're dealing with so got
7:14
two tacos here from Del Taco which has
7:17
sour cream
7:18
and all the added things that would make
7:21
it kind of like a supreme
7:23
would be from Del Taco so that's the two
7:25
items I got there also these fries
7:29
I also asked if they could put an
7:31
assortment of
7:33
you know sauces mild got Del scorcho
7:36
there from Del Taco got some napkins
7:39
which I'm gonna probably put the Taco on
7:41
there just to kind of hold the napkins
7:42
down and then a burrito with everything
7:45
on it
7:47
from Del Taco and then here's more of a
7:50
the hot sauces and whatnot I'll leave
7:52
the napkins in there to kind of weigh
7:54
that down and Taco Bell has loaded up a
7:57
full bag here with all the
7:59
all the different sauces Fire Sauce hot
8:02
sure why not
8:04
and then
8:06
a burrito supreme okay just looking at
8:09
this right off the bat
8:11
this is a there's a lot more girth to
8:13
the Taco Del Taco one just looking from
8:17
the package without unwrapping it there
8:24
and then you got the two
8:24
Taco Bell regular Taco Supremes as well
8:28
this says double dare you
8:31
sounds like a challenge
8:33
it's Diablos off so the difference is so
8:35
there were three tacos in the meal
8:38
from Taco Bell two tacos where's the two
8:42
tacos from Del Taco but it also came
8:45
with the fries so that's like you can't
8:47
get fries from Taco Bell unless maybe go
8:49
to the KFC I wonder if the KFC Taco
8:50
Bells have fries the one I went to
8:52
didn't have a fries all right
8:55
are for posterity God
8:58
Taco I think I just dropped a little bit
9:01
of that one so you got the burritos you
9:04
got the tacos
9:05
got the bag here
9:12
in the frame here or not
9:12
maybe the Del Taco bag
9:14
might work no that's all that's all kind
9:19
of ripped up there we've got burritos
9:24
tacos I mean there's a lot of different
9:26
there's a lot of different things I
9:27
could have got besides
9:30
just the tacos and the burritos
9:33
but yeah this is what
9:37
we're dealing with I think I should
9:38
probably take
9:40
that's a Del Taco let me do the Taco
9:43
Bell burrito kind of showcase that
9:47
here we go
9:49
four
9:51
posterity
9:56
can't really see the Del Taco logo in
9:56
there though maybe I should try this
10:00
yeah maybe
10:03
that works Maybe
10:12
the things you do to get everything in
10:12
one photo and there's still a lot that's
10:14
not even in the photo
10:15
that works right
10:26
all right I'm going in on the talk out
10:28
I feel like that wasn't the best
10:29
interpretation of everything that's
10:31
happening in the video but you know what
10:33
I'm hungry all right now I am a big
10:37
connoisseur of Taco Bell products I have
10:40
consumed many a Taco Bell the first
10:42
thing I'm seeing so
10:44
Taco Bell I went to after Del Taco
10:47
and obviously I had the drive over here
10:49
and the amount of time it took me to
10:50
drive over here which was like 12
10:52
minutes so it's probably been 20 minutes
10:54
since I ordered the Del Taco or more
10:55
it's still really crunchy this thing is
10:57
soggy
10:59
the Taco Bell is soggy
11:01
but I do love some Taco Bell so I'm
11:02
gonna go with the Taco Bell one first
11:18
how is the Taco Bell when soggy already
11:18
when I got that after the Del Taco
11:24
and I have to say I'm more into
11:24
Coca-Cola
11:25
than Pepsi so I'm gonna start off with a
11:27
Coke
11:31
this is like a Clash
11:31
that's Coca-Cola
11:33
does not go with Taco Bell and that's
11:34
what I'm eating
11:36
my mind is blown right now
11:46
I don't know what it is about fast food
11:46
tacos and Taco Bell they're not the best
11:49
they're not the worst
12:01
really soggy
12:01
really soggy I mean I've gotten fresh
12:04
tacos from Taco Bell and they always
12:06
kind of get soggy pretty quick
12:15
perfect amount of sour cream
12:15
maybe a little too much sour cream but
12:17
pretty damn good let's get a little Del
12:19
Taco which on here Taco Bell bag
12:23
Del Taco wait a second
12:25
should I oh wait this is a taco I'm
12:27
confused wait
12:29
Taco Bell yeah
12:32
the non so you look look the amount of
12:34
cheese on this one here this is Del Taco
12:37
versus Taco Bell okay so here they are
12:40
side by side
12:42
you can kind of see the thickness of
12:44
them
12:45
Taco Bell Del Taco even though it is in
12:48
the wrapper
12:49
it's kind of confusing because it took
12:51
it out of
12:53
this wrapper here
12:55
probably have the right wrapper on it I
12:57
can already tell it's going to be a lot
12:58
crunch here
13:07
that was going to give a nice little
13:07
crunch if it didn't crunch
13:10
but it is not as soggy
13:13
okay the meat on this is better
13:16
I gotta say at the meat on the Del taco
13:18
is better than a Taco Bell taco what the
13:20
heck
13:32
the cheese is better the cheese is
13:32
better on the Del Taco
13:35
considerably noticeably better
13:44
and I love Taco Bell
13:44
but this is a far more Superior regular
13:47
Taco with the stuff on it just it's
13:49
better
14:01
this is a good fast food taco
14:01
Taco Bell is too but this is like
14:03
this is a step up
14:16
I don't even want to throw Jack in the
14:16
Box in the neck because that's a whole
14:18
other different type of Taco I love
14:19
Jack-in-the-Box tacos but they're not
14:21
even comparable with the type of style
14:24
the Taco Bell and Del Taco have these
14:27
are pretty comparable they're pretty
14:28
much exactly the same type of Taco one's
14:30
made a little bit differently but it's
14:31
the same ingredients Del Taco you have
14:34
just
14:36
I want to say you won me over
14:39
but I am impressed with just a basic
14:41
Taco that has you know the normal stuff
14:46
on it that was pretty dang good
14:49
now back to Taco Bell
14:55
there you go you can just see the
14:55
comparison just by looking at them
15:08
I'm not going to not stop eating Taco
15:08
Bell
15:14
but if I think the two side by side were
15:14
in front of me like they are
15:16
someone walked up with you know two or
15:18
three tacos from either one
15:20
I would probably pick the Del Taco one
15:23
kind of sad to say is Taco Bell
15:26
I love Taco Bell
15:38
even though the Bell
15:38
gets soggy or a lot quicker also than
15:40
Del Tacos
15:41
tacos are my favorite food and my mom
15:43
knows it homemade tacos are my mom makes
15:46
the best thing in existence when I get
15:48
back from a big trip I haven't seen my
15:49
parents in a while
15:50
and I go over to her place to visit
15:52
nine times out of ten she makes me
15:54
homemade tacos he loves how much I love
15:55
tacos these neither one of these nowhere
15:58
near as my as my mom's homemade tacos
15:59
they are
16:01
that's a whole other ball game
16:03
this is this is like a far away second
16:05
and third
16:09
some of the best tacos I ever had is
16:09
when I lived in Hollywood
16:11
Sunset Boulevard
16:13
I loved over off Carlton between Sunset
16:16
and Hollywood Boulevard off the 101.
16:18
right over Rob Bronson in that area
16:21
and there was a food truck well it was a
16:23
lot of food trucks Taco food truck
16:26
me and my buddy Jordan the lion who also
16:28
lives in the neighborhood at that time
16:30
we became friends if we were basically
16:32
neighbors a block away from each other
16:33
we had walked down to this Taco food
16:35
truck
16:37
over near where out of the closet was
16:39
across from the Palladium
16:41
now it's Apartments there now but man so
16:43
good
16:52
I've eaten Del Taco probably 30 times in
16:52
my life a bit of the first Del Taco
16:55
I think it's off Route 66 maybe it's out
16:57
in the desert somewhere California
17:00
and I've eaten a Del Taco you don't
17:02
actually drive in the one here but
17:04
I've eaten Taco Bell probably 10 times
17:06
as many times I mean Taco Bell
17:09
I'll say a thousand tires but oh my gosh
17:11
when I was on tour in the bands every
17:13
night after Show's Taco Bell
17:24
food for thought
17:24
food
17:25
for thought
17:27
maybe the reason Taco Bell is so
17:28
successful is because they're everywhere
17:30
know how Starbucks
17:32
I'm about to huge a Starbucks guy I'll
17:34
drink it
17:35
and I drink it more than other coffee
17:36
because it is always on every corner
17:38
there's Starbucks everywhere
17:40
is that this is the same go with Taco
17:42
Bell have they franchise so heavily that
17:45
they have become synonymous with the
17:47
fast food taco
17:49
I'm not trying to downplay it it's good
17:50
but yeah maybe it also just hit me that
17:52
I have not tried
17:53
any of the hot sauces yet or
17:58
the Pepsi or the Pepsi now
18:00
Coke versus Pepsi
18:06
oh yeah that's definitely Pepsi it's a
18:06
lot sweeter Coca-Cola is not as sweet
18:10
cocoa sweet but not as sweet as Pepsi
18:12
drink as much Coca-Cola as I have
18:14
another fun fact my grandfather used to
18:16
work for Coca Cola back in the day
18:17
so I have a soft spot for Coca-Cola I
18:19
would go to my grandma grandpa's in
18:20
Mississippi he would have the little
18:23
10 or 12 ounce bottles I would open up
18:25
the little bottle on the bottle opener
18:27
underneath my grandma's sink in the
18:30
kitchen good memories of Coca-Cola but
18:33
because Disney is Coca-Cola only I'm at
18:36
the theme parks a lot I have grown a
18:39
whole other level of love for Coca-Cola
18:41
so I prefer Coca-Cola or Pepsi but every
18:43
once in a while a nicely delicious sweet
18:45
Pepsi it's kind of nice to touch the
18:47
lips
18:48
come on
18:58
oh yeah
18:58
I don't know how it got inside this eye
19:00
this is weird the two taco places that
19:02
I've eaten out a lot I've never gone
19:04
head to head with before
19:09
and I don't know if I've ever done the
19:09
Pepsi code challenge
19:12
this is Coke yeah Del Taco Coke
19:16
Wild
19:18
okay the fries
19:21
Del Taco fries
19:28
a little crinkle cut
19:28
oh yeah dang these are good
19:32
all right
19:34
Del Taco fries are decent
19:45
enough of those
19:45
we're going into the burritos oh yeah
19:47
this tank is heavy
19:50
all right come on don't talk out
19:53
look at this
19:55
this is the Del Taco wrapped
19:58
in that what is this tin foil
20:01
and this
20:03
wrapped in there Taco Bell
20:06
okay this is probably 70 heavier than
20:10
this
20:11
70 header I did not look at the total
20:14
price difference between both of these
20:16
this is a burrito supreme
20:18
and this is a burrito that I have kind
20:21
of loaded it up to be
20:23
a supreme I'm gonna go with the old Taco
20:31
hmm
20:34
oh my gosh I like that a lot obviously
20:37
it's the same meat that's on the tacos
20:39
in the burrito
20:54
that is really tasty it's got
20:54
the sauce on it the red sauce got some
20:56
Tomatoes got a little lettuce
20:58
mild
21:00
let's go on the moment when you use the
21:02
mild to Taco Bell
21:04
let's mild it up I feel like I've
21:07
kind of missed the Mark here with
21:09
oh that's a lot of sauce ooh that's a
21:11
lot of sauce
21:21
dang that mouth sauce is good
21:21
okay it's better with the sauce on it
21:24
I've failed Myself by not putting the
21:25
sauce on to begin with that my old sauce
21:27
is really good from Taco Bell
21:29
I like the flavor on it
21:38
that's the word of the day hmm
21:38
before Del taco is called oh wait that's
21:41
hot Del Inferno
21:43
they're medium which I'm guessing is
21:45
they're mild it is called Del scorcho
21:49
score Joe even a Weezer song
21:53
maybe you know maybe is it Al or Dell
21:57
El scorcho oh it's a play on word
21:59
because Del Taco
22:01
all right I am going to
22:03
I'm just going to put this right on and
22:06
I'm just going to like open this up and
22:08
put the Del scorcho
22:10
right on there like that just a little
22:12
bit not fully
22:14
fully intense
22:20
I like this like a good eating spot
22:20
because a lot of people walking over
22:21
they're probably looking for Gators and
22:22
whatnot they're looking over here going
22:24
why does that guy have two different
22:25
taco places at the same time why is he
22:28
consuming that over there
22:39
definitely a different choice
22:39
than Taco Bells
22:53
and this is already warmer
22:53
it's got like a little more kick to it
23:07
I think I like Taco Bell's burrito
23:07
supreme better
23:13
I don't know why
23:13
this one's easy to have some meat
23:16
beans
23:19
crushed beans and also the lettuce and
23:22
cheese just like the other other
23:23
establishment does
23:30
I also might not be able to give it a
23:30
fair assessment because I'm getting
23:31
really full
23:33
you know when you get full your taste
23:36
buds kind of change a little bit
23:41
this is good but I think I would prefer
23:42
there's a good solid Bean right there
23:52
all right as far as tacos go
23:52
if Del Taco and Taco Bell were side by
23:54
side with every you know the Supreme
23:56
version
23:57
to use Taco Bell's coin fries
23:59
I would go with the Del Taco for the
24:01
tacos if they were all laid out and I
24:03
was at a party and it was
24:05
it was all different types of food and
24:07
stuff and there was two different taco
24:08
places I would the taco place I would
24:11
choose for the regular Taco with the
24:13
sour cream and the cheese and the
24:15
tomatoes on it would be Del Taco the
24:17
burrito I would probably go with the
24:19
burrito supreme over the Del Taco
24:25
it's got some kick to it now I did put
24:25
the hot sauce on it but I feel like
24:27
there's something else in here that's
24:28
giving it a little
24:30
because I was praising the regular taco
24:32
from Taco Bell
24:34
so much no from Del Taco see I have Taco
24:36
Bell on the brine just I think
24:37
everyone's just used to say Taco Bell
24:40
look at the amount of cheeses on this
24:42
bad boy Del Taco you know how to make a
24:46
fast food Taco at least from your
24:48
Highway 192 location
24:51
and I am going to go with a little Dell
24:55
Inferno
24:57
not Disco Inferno it's probably a play
24:58
onwards for Disco Inferno I don't know I
25:01
don't know why I have disco on my mind
25:02
too but
25:03
I'm going to peel open the Dell Inferno
25:06
and just gonna go in
25:09
All In
25:11
I'm good
25:12
Dell
25:14
Inferno whatever happened to the Dell
25:16
guy didn't he something happened to that
25:18
guy that's a computer company
25:20
nonetheless that's probably most people
25:22
probably don't probably watching don't
25:24
even remember the Dell guy
25:37
it's a good fast food Taco oh that's
25:37
good cheese
25:39
that is really good shredded cheese
25:43
I don't like the hot sauce it's too hot
25:45
it's too much I should have gone with
25:46
the mild again the Dell Inferno just a
25:48
little too much for my my taste buds no
25:52
that was a mistake putting that on there
25:53
I mean it's handleable enough
26:03
just got a little too much kick to like
26:03
make it enjoyable can't eat any more of
26:05
that I'm full
26:12
so the consensus is
26:12
hungry and I'm driving around and
26:14
there's either one of those two places
26:17
I'm gonna pull in and get get a taco
26:18
right now that's it there's my review
26:23
but I am leaning towards
26:26
cocoa
26:41
Taco Bell
26:41
tacos
26:43
have to go to Del Taco on this one
26:45
this is only my opinion and only for the
26:47
Highway 192 establishments I just
26:49
visited
26:51
and
26:52
I don't even know if I would have
26:54
noticed a massive difference if I had
26:56
not had them at the same time if I got
26:58
them at two different time frames I
27:00
don't know if I would notice the
27:01
difference but it's very noticeable
27:04
when you do what I just did it consume
27:06
two Heavy Hitters of the fast food Taco
27:10
establishments in one sitting
27:25
all right I'm not thirsty anymore
27:25
polish off the coke so the Pepsi to go
27:28
the old Taco Bell
27:34
I really like this little area over here
27:34
this this table came in really handy
27:36
could have sat a little more in the
27:38
shade but yeah it was nice
27:39
I'd say like three quarter shade one
27:42
quarter so I actually pour like seven
27:44
seven eighths Sun one eighth shade
27:52
it's a nice uh hearing the birds
27:52
chirping
28:00
there's a turtle in there
28:00
faintly see this Turtle though I think
28:02
he's well he's going back under the
28:03
water that was probably a little too
28:05
much food
28:09
probably should have just got the
28:09
burrito maybe one taco
28:11
I don't know though but then there's so
28:13
many different menu items at both those
28:16
places
28:17
it's tough to decide but that's usually
28:19
what I'll get from usually I get tacos
28:21
or burritos from places so that's just
28:23
kind of what I went with
28:28
and my lips
28:28
have a nice little after flavor
28:31
that after flavor you get from hot sauce
28:34
my lips are feeling that right now it's
28:36
nice a nice sensation
28:42
I like it
28:42
oh
28:44
hello there is a turtle right there
28:53
you know that sensation when you get a
28:53
little hot sauce on the lips turtle
28:59
oh what's that you want to do the outro
28:59
your butt yeah your buddy did do it the
29:01
other day
29:02
you want to do the outro turtle
29:14
I'll see you in the next video
29:14
