the wonders of life

Well, today I thought, I really don't want to make supper... so knowing that 7-Eleven has all things good (and slightly more expensive), I went to my local 7-11 store.

Super! They have taquitos! I like taquitos! I ordered 2 "Monterey Jack Chicken Taquitos"! Sounds great, right?? Actually, also, because the chimichangas that I'm in love with are also monterey jack cheese and chicken, who can go wrong with 2 "Monterey Jack Chicken Taquitos"!

So I order them... and alas, there's only one Monterey Jack Chicken Taquito. Well, what are my other options? Something containing taco something, and "Zesty Shredded Pork Taquito". Yeah... nothing edible should contain "shredded" and "pork" in the same title. Alas, the zesty one was the less spicy of the two... so I ordered one "Monterey Jack...." and one "Zesty Shredded Pork". And I went home.

While gazing at these beautiful taquitos, I was struck by the thought that both of them looked very much the same. Shoot! Now how will I tell the difference?? What if the Pork one is gross? I should eat that one first, right? Then I know the second one will be really good! (Saving the best for last and all that...) Excellent! But they look the same... Ah ha! I will smell them! That will tell the difference.

Yeah... they both smelt the same. Darn! Now what??? Well, I'll start eating one. Okay, one bite in, this one's definitely the monterey jack chicken one that I know I like! Super! I'll eat the other one, the zesty pig one, first. Yup, so I bite into the zesty pig. Hmmm... Something alerts my taste buds as to the fact that... THEY BOTH TASTE THE SAME.

I've now eaten both of them... couple bites from each until both were finished at the same time, trying desperately to cling to the knowledge that they SHOULD TASTE DIFFERENT. But no! No difference at all!

Atleast I liked them both, whatever they were... made for a pleasant supper.
