Week Twelve

Breakfast Bomber
The first burrito in our month long Breakfast Trek.  It's a good start to that trek.  Lots of flavor, hearty, and not too breakfast-y.  Isaac tries to rape Ben's burrito.  The idea of Drunken Burrito Quest is broached.  Also Ben's rating is some kind of imaginary feeling.

Ingredients: Steak, Chorizo, Bacon, Potatoes, Eggs, Beans, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - A Good Sequel, 'cause you were expecting the sequel to be bad, but it turned out good.  Or maybe Coke Zero.
Daniel - Life Cereal, I like Life Cereal, it's a good staple, and it's delicious, but it's no Honey Bunches of Oats.
Isaac - Stephen King, he puts out a lot of stuff that's hit or miss, but when he hits, he hits.

Week Eleven

Big Red
"Fuck. This was. . . fuck. It was kind of a vaguely disappointing disaster. The meat was flavorless and indistinct. It might have been pork. It might have been chicken. Who knows? The beans were excessive, and smeared together to make the whole burrito taste like a bad bean burrito. The potatoes were mushy and also indistinct. It might have been beans. It might have been potato. Who knows? All in all, kind of lame and sad, but also basic and a staple. I'd love this burrito if I had previously drunk four beers. Also, [Isaac] showed up drunk, hit me, tried to throw sugary popcorn at the diabetic dog, and went around the house looking for gay Mexicans he could watch Twilight with. Solid 3." - Ben

Ingredients: Red Chile Pork, Beans, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - 4 beers before I really like this burrito.
Daniel - Driving home from work; I'm not at work, but I'm commuting, right there in the middle.
Isaac - Afternoon Delight, it's unexpected even though it's what you do every night...or morning.

Week Ten

Big Daddy
“This was the Big Asada + Guac. It was pretty good, but it might just have been good because it wasn't the Big D, which we ate on Saturday. Ugh. The Guac really enhanced the steak - and salsa really makes this burrito a success. I wanted another as soon as I finished it. I give this burrito a solid thumbs up.” - Ben

Ingredients: 3 Steak, Pico, Potato, Cheese, Guacamole

Ratings:
Ben - Solid handshake (or maybe handjob), I appreciate that I had it and I’d have another given my druthers.
Daniel - Ballcap, better than a visor but not as good as cowboy hat for shade.
Isaac - Sunny but windy day, it’s kind of windy so your allergies are getting activated, but it’s still sunny, and you could fly a kite.

Week Nine

Big D
“This was a bad burrito. It was just. . . man. Chicken and potato go together like a kindergarten class and ten vats of lard. It's just fucking awful. I would eat this burrito if I was starving, but only then. The burritos the guy was making while he made this one were ham, egg, cheese, and green chile, and I wish we had just eaten those instead.” - Ben

Ingredients: Chicken, Bacon, Potato, Pico, Egg, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Apples, most of the time I don’t want to eat one. (2.5/5)
Daniel - Hard-backed folding chair, not too comfortable but better than sitting on the ground.
Isaac - Chicken pox, we’ve all had it but it wasn’t too bad.
Jenni - 6/10

Week Eight

Big Chief
“This burrito shocked me. The ingredients blended together in a creamy embrace of chicken and steak, with the rice and pico double-teaming the meat for a milenasa explosion. This thing was bulging with flavor, and the cheese mattered. We touched burritos for one brief moment, and then it was gone.” - Ben

Ingredients: Steak, Chicken, Pico, Rice, Milanesa, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - 4/5, Sore Throat
Daniel - Common Cold
Isaac - 6/10, Common Cold

Week Seven

Big Bad Aggie
We tried to shorten our running time by starting the recording after we’d already begun eating.  It didn’t really work.  Dry and less than flavorful, all-in-all a pretty lousy burrito.  Daniel pioneers the qualitative rating system.

Ingredients: Chicken, Potato, Beans, Salsa, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - 1.5/5
Daniel - Stomach Flu
Isaac - 3/10

Week Six

Big Asada
This was the first Quest-isode that took place on a night other than Monday, due to a Saac birthday interruption.  A very steak-y burrito.  The steak and potato combo was worrying at first, but the chopped, juicy nature of the steak forestalled the expected dryness.  Ben’s assitude regarding the ‘Solid’ descriptor begins.

Ingredients: 3 Steak, Pico, Potato, Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - 3.5/5
Daniel - 3.5/5
Isaac - 3/5
