Week Twenty-One

Deer Hunter
The return of the Saac Man.  Isaac returns from Ireland just in time to eat his favorite burrito from Santa Fe Grill.  We get bbq sauce in lieu of some of the salsa cups.  There's a fight about pronunciation of scones (sconns?).  Ben was very late, and everyone hated for it.  Specifically a very hungry Daniel.

Ingredients: Steak, Chicken, Green Chile, Milanesa, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - A plastic potted plant, I like them but they're not as good as a real plant.
Daniel - First meal of the day, because it's honest and I don't want to overrate it since it is my first meal of the day.
Isaac -A Jammy Dodger, a little cookie with jam in it.  They got the jams...the cookie...  I don't know what I was gonna say.  Translates to pretty good.
Alex - It was an afternoon delight.

Week Twenty

Combo Fajita
"This burrito was surprisingly tasty, so much so that I recommended it to [Isaac] when he returned from the United Kingdom. I would get this again. I would recommend this to friends and relatives. I have no pictures of this burrito. EAT IT. " - Ben

Ingredients: Steak, Chicken, Veggies, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Space marines, sometimes you're in the mood for space marines, like with Aliens, but Starship Troopers 2, no.
Daniel - A refreshing beer after a hard day's work on the yard, something light and refreshing, like a Bud Light, because that's when a Bud Light tastes the best.
$teve - Frozen apple pie, it's not like you cooked it yourself or ordered it at a restaurant, but it's still apple pie.

Week Nineteen

Chicken Club
We narrowly avert Burrito Quest disaster when we discover the Chicken Club is a burrito and not a sandwich.  $teve (and fam) begins his journey with us, standing in while Isaac was overseas, and sticking with it for longer than most would have.  And it should be noted that $teve is a trained chef.  That means his opinion means more, and he's hurting himself more by doing this, at the same time.  I don't think we ever tell people what the ingredients were.  WTF!

Ingredients:Chicken, Bacon, Green Chile, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Finding a dollar in your pants pocket, or on the ground.  Somewhere between finding an empty cup to a cold Coke Zero on the ground.
Daniel - Hulk Hogan, as you eat it it gets better, like Hogan's comebacks in the wrestling wring.  But then I don't really like wrestling, so that might put it in perspective.
$teve - A Jack-in-the-Box taco, pretty crunchy all around and it gets soggier as you get to the bottom.

Week Eighteen

Burrito Too Far
Our first week whilst Isaac was traipsing around Ireland.  Daniel's nephew Cameron joined us in his stead.

". . . like all burritos, this was 50% delicious and 50% disappointing. Steak, milanesa, relleno, cheese, egg, and 50% less swearing. You could have removed any one of the ingredients and created a finer food product. This burrito proves that there is such a thing as too much of a good thing, and also too much of a bad thing." - Ben

Ingredients: Steak, Relleno, Cheese, Egg, and Milanesa

Ratings:
Ben - Cupcakes.  Where the frosting is really good.  You eat the frosting off, and then you're left with this cupcake.  Or Oreos.  Oreos are good, but you could just eat the cream filling.
Daniel - Haggis in Ireland.  If you didn't know any better, you'd think you're getting something authentic and awesome, but then, after you ate it, it probably wouldn't be as good as if you got it in Scotland.
Cameron - Burnt piece of toast.  It's really crispy and it's too crispy.

Week Seventeen

Burrito Stuffer
This burrito was overpriced for what you get.  You'd be better off ordering just the Choice of... stuff listed below and having them add rice to it.  Also, we discover that they inexplicably add corn to their rice.  There is much excitement over the possibility of putting grits in burritos.  Also, Daniel gets indignant over Sonic breakfast casserole in a tortilla.

Ingredients: Rice, Cheese, and Choice of Green Chile Meat, Green Chile Pork, or Red Chile Pork

Ratings:
Ben - Star Trek.  I went into it with high expectations and I got exactly what I wanted.  Fuck Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Daniel - A Hubble with the first fix, it went well beyond its lifespan, then they fixed it again and it's even better, but it's not that good.  Fuck yeah, dude!
Isaac - Jean-Claude Van Damme in Blood Sport.  Because I don't really like Van Damme, but when Bloodsport is on, surprisingly, I like Bloodsport.  I'll watch it, and I'll enjoy it.  There's a lot of naked bitches.

Week Sixteen

Buddha
An awful burrito.  The burritos were cold when we got them, which we were pretty sure they were not meant to be.  Also, bbq sauce has no place in a burrito.  According to everyone but Ben, who's some kind of wishy-washy asshole.

Ingredients: Chicken, Potato, Salsa, BBQ Sauce, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Roller Coaster, or Stop and Go Traffic, or Not Having Air Conditioning in Your Car.  I'm not liking this burrito the more I eat it.  Wait, I'd order this burrito again.
Daniel - Grape nuts, when you were expecting Fruity Pebbles.  Lousy like this burrito.
Isaac - Having to take showers at a gym, you don't wanna cause there's all sorts of dudes in there, but you have to cause you're stinky.

Week Fifteen

Brunch
The finale of the Breakfast Trek.  We discuss Isaac's impending departure from the country and how that will affect the Quest.  Also, fyi, Burrito Quest is not a contest.  Heh, Daniel misnames a burrito, "The Burrito Too Fat."

Ingredients: Steak, Potato, Egg, Green Chile, and Cheese

Ratings:
Ben - Like three weeks ago, I don't remember three weeks ago.  I've already forgotten this burrito.
Daniel - 80 degrees in my house, not really good but better than being 90 degrees in my house.
Isaac - Humpday, Wednesday, it's closer to the weekend but it's not Friday.
