yes , those are three tacos, but with extra ' hot sauce '

 

two would have been better .  My Eyes were bigger than my stomach.

 

Trashy - Tasty ,  freshly [sic] made.  

 

however , now Im not going to think of a FF Taco for many many years.

 

a FF Palate-Cleanser is almost ice-cold and ready for service.

 

don't try these , unless BK is not busy , and get the extra sauce.  its not hot.

 

one would be a good intro

 

 

I am mentally comparing these with the "street tacos" at Carl's Jr. several years ago.     Two soft tortillas, several tablespoons of shredded (grilled?) chicken white meat, lettuce and tomato, cheese, access to a salsa bar = $2.79 as I recall.    I would separate into two tortillas, split the toppings and head for the salsa bar for sauce and jalapenas, more cilantro and onoin -> two "decent" tacos at roughly $1.40 each.     Acceptable flavors and textures and one order was filling.   Absolutely NOT one of my truck tacos, but worked when DH wanted Carl's jr .   

 

FWIW, my personal hang-up: Crispy shelled tacos = handheld tostados.     "Tacos" are made with soft tortillas.     Guess I'm just a street dog.

 

Carl's has discontinued this item.   Probably decided it was not cost effective, canibalizing more profitable items on the menu.
