Buy a Black Jack Taco...Please!!!

If you're like me, you've been disgusted and confused by those stupid Taco Bell commercials promoting this 'Black Jack' taco. As if there's another way to combine meat, cheese, and lettuce. Well, apparently no one is willing to plunk down even 89 cents for one of these suckers, cause now the Bell is giving them away in an attempt to get rid of the high inventory of black taco shells they've got (trying to make it seem like a planned, Halloween event):













Everything about the picture grosses me out - limp lettuce and cheese, unknown sauce, dry crumbly meat in a BLACK shell. A note about this - I've heard the shells are actually dark blue, like blue corn chips, which would make a lot more sense if they advertised it that way. At least we've seen and tasted blue corn before. Black is not usually a flavor-color combo that's attractive...

We'll see if any other decent commercials pop up during the World Series...although I'm sure everyone in New York has tuned out by now...
