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

Fritos, as in the high calorie corn chips?? are you serious?????

dollypie 11-03-2006 11:59 AM

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 :o

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

:hun:

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.

LockItUp 11-03-2006 01:33 PM

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 can't talk... I'm obsessed w/ Chipotle burritos

denice81 11-04-2006 01:40 AM

i always notice strange new "frankenfood" creations advertised on the sonic sign when i drive by. recently: pickle o's (fried pickles!) ewwww....

littleleaps 11-04-2006 01:49 AM

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..

eightbitgirl 11-04-2006 02:33 AM

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

Tara D 11-04-2006 05:52 PM

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!

Canadian_Mickey 11-04-2006 06:42 PM

That just sound nasty!!! Ick.... imagine all that junk going through your system? Oh I feel ill!! :(

Tater Tots? I definitely missed out on that part...... Okay, the potential for it to be anything approximating tasty is GONE. (It only ever had potential before because, as I said, I <3 frito chili pie....) Yuck. Deep-fried potatoes.... corn chips..... probably 30% fat chili made with Grade E beef...... and fake, tasteless cheese. MMMMMMMMMMMM.

Tisha___ 11-06-2006 10:37 AM

Yeah, I didn't notice the tater tots either. I'd get it without those.

And, someone mentioned Pickle-O's. I hate pickles, so obvs I'd hate those too, but they are one of Keith's favorite things. They don't have them at the Sonic here.


eightbitgirl 11-06-2006 09:23 PM

I think it's ONLY the Sonic over here off of 249 that has tots in the actual wrap, because I haven't seen it advertised like that anywhere else or on the commercials.. but still. gross. and nothing beats homemade Frito pie.

rebeleagle1965 11-07-2006 08:06 PM

I am guilty of indulging in all of Sonic's strange food combinations myself....throughout my entire last pregnancy I used to go every Thursday (my day off) for BREAKFAST, and have one of those double cheeseburgers with the chipotle sauce and jalapenos, with tater tots and an orange smoothie. That and Caramel Moolatte's from DQ were major contributing factors to my 80 pound weight gain that I'm still losing a year later. Thinking of it now makes me want to barf, but it just goes to show ya that there's a market out there for anything-SOMEONE will eat it.
I do still love the chili cheese fries with onions and the philly cheesesteak thingies on hot dog buns.
