I tried one. It wasn't even moderately pissed off. The angry sauce is
a freakin' joke ... more sweet than pungent. The only saving is some
canned, pickled jalapenos which are very mildly interesting.
Wendy's Spicy Baconater was (note the PAST tense) *MUCH* better.
Sadly, it's not available any more and the regular Wendy's Baconater
is an obscene joke on the tastebuds of the fast food public.
My local Q-Doba just give me a blank look and a shrug when I ask about
Chile Verde. I ain't moving to Colorado just for that. Hell, they
don't even have a newspaper anymore.
An aside to Doug and Marie - I can't imagine doing anything for 60
years. Even the most pleasurable things in the world. Congratulations
on your stubbornness if nothing else. Bv)=
