32. I actually have a strange affinity for the Double Cheeseburger at Del Taco

It's basically a Big Mac but w/o the middle bun piece. They're surprisingly tasty considering it's supposedly a taco joint. Their fries aren't as good as McD's though.

I generally prefer a Del Taco to a Taco Bell taco, but for some reason, I occasionally want one from the Bell. Reminds me of childhood, pretty much tastes the same as it did when I was 10 yo.

And can I take this opportunity to proclaim my dismay that Jack in the Box no longer sells the Monster Taco? The regular ones are just not nearly as good.
