Are you guys really old or did I just miss out?

Six of one, half a dozen of the other.

Sadly, Zantigo does still exist. Just not in our market area.

According to the always-infallible intranets:

The old Zantigo chain was owned by Kentucky Fried Chicken. When KFC was bought by Pepsi in 1986, they decided to close Zantigo since Pepsi already owned a taco chain, Taco Bell. So most Zantigo stores were converted to Taco Bell in 1987 or simply closed.

The Minneapolis-St. Paul chain Zapata started using the name Zantigo in 2001. According to that company, they are using recipes of the old Zantigo, but there is no way to know that for sure. Presumably Pepsi (and its successor YUM! Brands) would want to keep those out of the marketplace to avoid competition to Taco Bell.

Damn you, Pepsi! Bad call! Bad call!

Now I wish I knew someone in Minneapolis. Wonder how well tacos would hold up in a FedEx box...

I can tell you for certain that shipping hamsters in a FedEx box turns out to be a very bad idea, especially if it is for a little girl's birthday.

I'm guessing then that tacos would also not hold up well.

You can strike this thread down, @BUCKYLE but know that it will become more powerful than you ever could imagine.

So, I'm making this ginormous breakfast thing. I finish prepping it, and as I am putting it in the oven it occurs to me that I don't remember deciding to make breakfast at 4 in the morning. Also, I'm not hungry. Also, there is enough for a family of 10.

So then I come on here to post about it, and wind up reading the Game of Thrones thread and forget it's in the oven until the timer goes off.

Luckily, it all worked out. It's safely out of the oven, the oven is off, I'm giving myself permission to take a nap instead of working all night, and between Christmasing and freezing this, I don't have to cook anything for the rest of 2016. Wins all around.

Going to have to keep a closer eye on my kitchen inventory, though. I think this is the first time I've sleep-cooked. Well, if it isn't, at least I didn't leave messy dishes.
