Default Are you serious?

I just saw a commercial for the new Sonic sandwich.. chili, cheese, and Fritos in a tortilla wrap.

I was at Sonic last night (just getting a raspberry iced tea!) and my husband pointed that out. We both gagged at the thought of it.

I must be the only one who saw the commercial and thought "YUM!!!" lol

Of course, I have a weakness for Frito Chili Pies, so maybe that's why. Plus, I love Sonic's chili.

When it was my dad's turn to cook (when my mom wasn't home) we'd have Frito Chili Pie. It's still one of my favorite "bad" foods But in a tortilla? THAT's weird.

Yah I saw that...I thought it was weird, I had never heard of anything like that before. I don't think I'd ever venture to get it.

Excuse my language, but holy crap! That's half a day's food for the average person!!! Talk about disgusting! Just thinking of how much food I can eat (healthy food, that is) to reach a calorie count of over 700, and eating it all in one go, makes me want to barf! I think that's a good sign? LOL.

Hello, heart attack waiting to happen! But still... I've eaten worse! I used to make these toasted cheese sandwiches.
Texas Toast
Atleast 3oz of cheese on each
Toasted, then micro'd to melt the cheese.

Then a side of Ranch to dip it in.

*shudders*

I have never seen the commercial, but I do know that chili and frito chips is oooh so good when together. Kinda like mac and cheese with ketchup. Or peas and cheese on ramen noodles.. wow this makes it sound like all I eat is processed foods, but I swear I don't! I'm just a poor college student..

I can't imagine why on earth they would destroy the holy name of a Frito pie (and if you're from the south, you know it's holy) by putting it in a tortilla with TATER TOTS? excuse me, I need to vomit. that being said, the caloric content is frightening

I hear you Dreamer. I was on a Qdoba (pretty much the same as Chipotle) burrito kick...until the day I saw the nutrition info online...Whoa!!! That was even without cheese, sour cream, or guacamole!
