I don’t think Pizza Hut can even afford to be giving away free grease these days. Read more

I thought I was too grown up to fall for this kind of thing, but I really want to try these! Read more

Interesting that this just says "Underwood has no heat" like what lol  Read more

Now that you’ve compared all the store bought variations of “New and Improved” sriracha sauces, how about you try making some homemade sauces and compare them? At $8 to $12 per bottle, how comparably cheap would it be to make it yourself?

That flavor sounds.. fine I guess? Read more

I work in a Coke plant and tried the Spiced a couple of weeks ago. I guessed at a grape flavor, but if you say it’s raspberry, I’m ok with that. None of the new flavors will have me drinking a second can, including this one.  I hope y’all like it. Read more

Can we just you know, not.  That flavor just doesn’t sound very good IMO, besides you can make all kinds of wacky flavors from Coca Cola Freestyle machines. Read more

A reminder to readers of The Takeout that its staff has been holding so-far-fruitless negotiations for better pay and working conditions and have authorized a strike if nothing is settled by today — check the Onion Union’s social media sites to see if a strike happens so you don’t accidentally check the Takeout, Read more

You don’t dip a burrito in hot sauce either. You can pour it on as you eat it just like you would a hot sauce packet, plus there are plenty of salsa packet brands as well. Read more

Six slices of bacon is a bit much, even for me. I’ll stick with the sausage/egg/cheese biscuit. Read more

How do you dip a burrito in salsa? It’s not like it is liquid and you can just put it on top every bite, that shit makes a mess. Worse, why would you try to unwrap one just to add salsa?! Read more

Hot sauce is not for a breakfast burrito, it should be salsa 100% of the time. Read more

The second I shift my bag around on the weighed bagging station to adjust for a newly scanned item, the system always alerts me that I’ve removed the item that needs to be paid for, almost without fail.”

See, unlike you, I have mastered the art and physics of tying little helium balloons to all my items in self Read more

The monthly mailer of very good coupons of things I regularly buy is nice, as is the gas discount… Read more

The age verification thing seems like if could be useful if they added the one extra capability of scanning the ID. Presumably a computer could scan the barcode to confirm it’s a legit ID and also compare the photo to the person? Read more

Buy a whole bunch of the same thing, and keep hitting “skip bagging”. Just don’t scan them all. Buy stuff in the bulk section, and use a PLU for the cheapest thing there, not what you’re scooping up, and voila! fancy trail mix for the price of table salt. Read more

Im always amazed by level of accuracy Minority Report had in depicting actual and possible future developments.  Cruise's character shopping at The Gap with a distinctly Asian name notwithstanding. Read more

More like mediocre, and this pass is good for takeout, so you can doctor it up at home. I’ll give it a shot. Read more

It sounds like it could be a good deal but there's one small issue,  I have not a date.... Read more
