I Heart Ihopplebee's: Shoddy Goods 089
0I always loved that DelTaco had burritos and fries, so I think a Burger King / Taco Bell mash-up might be my preferred combo. What two food joints would you smush into one monstrosity, and what would you get there? Let’s hear about it in this week’s Shoddy Goods chat.

I used to love going to the KFC/Taco Bell near me. You could make some cool combos like tacos and fries or tenders and a burrito.
I wouldn’t mind a Wendy’s-Taco Bell. Chili and a taco or two would be cool.
Toby Keith would approve… “Whisky for me; beer for my horse.”
This is heresy but I wouldn’t mind a Chick-fil-A In-N-Out.
It would absolutely not work, though. Maybe just right next door to each other with separate buildings, a dedicated line right and left, and a third line down the middle you could go to if you wanted things from both menus and to pay once.
I love both In-N-Out (but it has no chicken for my only eats chicken kid) and Chick-fil-A (but it has no burgers and sometimes I just really want one.) One line for a Chick-fil-A sandwich with animal fries or a Double-Double with fresh made lemonade and a side of mac and cheese would be fantastic.
Andy Wiederhorn is a sketchy businessman, so I am not surprised to see yet another business failure under his watch. And the required firing of his children is an interesting little tidbit (no pun intended) in there.
We used to call our local Taco Bell/KFC “Taco Chicken”. Where it worked well was not for the individual, but for groups. This made it the perfect work lunch outing spot, and was a regular on our lunch rotation. But the problem with its location is lunch was the only crowd it got. Neither had much in the line of breakfast options then, and the area emptied out at dinnertime.
I think these would do gangbusters at a mall food court…if there were still many malls.
