It'd be awesome to have a touchpad menu that can filter on type of sweetener and the number of grams of sweetener per 355 ml serving, but maybe the kind of people who care about that aren't Coca-Cola's or Taco Time's customer base.

When I write I tend to toss "that" into sentences too often for clarification, I suppose because my mind misreads things like "the TV reporter Paul Constant".

I'll take some 'king 5 flavor' if you know what I mean.

(And if you do let me know because I have no idea.)

The dude at the beginning cannot read English, and the dudette is under the impression that she has "invented" 125 flavors. Hey, that's the word she used. The 20-year-old who runs Taco Time Northwest is clearly animatronic. I feel like I've lost thirty points of IQ watching this.

This lacks the gravitas that Pat Cashman brings to Taco Time commercials.

Coming to Taco Time: hour-long waits at the soda fountain as people decide exactly what they want.

Uh, Constant was there covering this non-event as well. Sure, he tried to make it snarky but he still gave them the publicity they were looking for.
