Taco John’s Ruminations

Filed under: — peter @ 8:13 am

Have you guys ever tried Potato Olés® from Taco John’s?

Holy crap you guys. Seriously, holy crap.

These tender, crispy, grease-flaked potato-cakes summon heretofore unknown quantities of passion and longing from the depths of my soul. I love my wife, and I worship Jesus Christ, but I yearn for Potato Olés®.

If you get them, you should dip them in the warm, tangy nacho cheese they so generously provide for a mere 75 cents extra. It will rip your tongue in half with taste-ecstacy.

The other day, Jim’s blog featured an interesting recap of some famous a priori philosophical proofs for the existence of God. This morning, I would like to offer up some logic that would make St. Anselm of Canterbury incontinent with envy.

1. Potato Olés® exist.
2. Therefore, God exists.

Someday, I would like to meet this Taco John and thank him for sharing his bounty of Potato Olés® with the rest of us. All of the earth rises up in anxious rejoicing of the succulent potato-orgy contained in each mini-tub of his savory, glistening flavor-drops.

And they’re only 620 calories per serving!

    Oh, and it’s 740 calories with the nacho cheese.

    Note: Serving size is 1/10th of an Ole.
