Doritos Locos Cool Ranch Taco

The Doritos Locos Nacho Cheese taco, in my opinion, was very disappointing. It was not flavorful at all and it was an overpriced regular taco in a fancy box. However, the Cool Ranch taco was the exact opposite; the Doritos Cool Ranch flavor was packed tight into a relatively small shell with tomatoes, lettuce and cheese, making a solid combination of texture and flavor.
The shell was the same size as the Nacho Cheese taco but as an athlete I suppose I have a bias towards size; no portion at a fast food restaurant will ever be big enough. On the contrary, the amount of flavor was off the charts as my mouth was hit with a crunchy, ranch-y (is that even a word!?) blast of taco shell on the first bite. The taco did not cease fire, but kept shooting blasts of flavor at my taste buds with every bite. The meat and toppings (lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese) together made for a great snack, if you only get one, and can add a unique taste to any meal. I strongly recommend trying this out, even if you weren't a fan of the Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos taco.

Johnny's Burgers

My experience at Johnny's Burgers was one to rave about. The cheeseburger special was cliché but at the same time uniquely captured the attention of my taste buds, leaving me disappointed when I looked at my plate and saw it empty. Now it's not that my portion was small, I had just wanted the meal to never end.
The fries made a great complement to the burger because they were crispy and warm, the stereotypical perfect French fry. I prefer to dip mine in ranch but for the sake of this post I decided to also try them with ketchup and without any condiments at all; I loved all three of the variations.
The burger was a mouth-watering, man-sized combination of lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, cheese, and quality meat. Those who aren't the biggest lettuce fans would have a valid argument that Johnny's puts too much on their burgers, but I prefer a lot of lettuce on my burger so it didn't bother me much.
All in all, I would go back to Johnny's Burgers any day if it weren't for the negative health effects, but as an enjoyable food it nearly tops my list. There are three Johnny's Burgers located in Riverside, California: there is one off the 91 fwy on Madison, at the Riverside Plaza off Central Ave., and one on La Sierra Ave. near Stater Brothers. My visit was paid to the Johnny's Burgers off the 91 at Madison, the original Johnny's in Riverside.
