    Someone said a churro is better than a gyro. Someone else said a gyro is just a burrito. Blasphemy.

    Then someone else said a gyro is a cheesesteak without the cheese. WTF. Feta. Hello, feta cheese? Are you on a gyro? Yes?! Okay, thank you.

    I think that last one was @iCarly Rae Jepsen

    PB&J is really the most versitile of all the sandwiches. You can have it for breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack.

    I don't know if you can say that about any other sandwich, besides maybe breakfast sandwiches for brunch/brinner.

    Somebody told me awhile back that I should try grilled PB&J. I've been meaning to try it forever but never get around to it.

    I regularly put peanut butter, nutella, and honey sandwiches on the Foreman grill and it is delicious. Also very hot.

    I know you've all been waiting for this.

    Whopperito: The Review

    Smell: You know the "flame-broiled" smell that Burger King emits? Adding taco seasoning to that does not do it any favors. I can only describe the Whopperito's smell as confusing.

    Consistency: There was way too much fucking tortilla. Like some bits were entirely tortilla with a little shred of wilted lettuce. Everything was way too soft. Like the lettuce was all translucent and flabby, as was the pickle. The meat was just clearly cut up burger smooshed into the tortilla making each bite inconsistent. The only constant was an unsavory wetness. Think long and hard about that last sentence. That is the thesis statement of the Whopperito, unsavory wetness.

    Taste: It tastes exactly how it looks. There was no need for a Whopper to be put into a tortilla. There was no need to put taco, cheese, whatever the fuck sauce on the Whopper. One day, when we are all eating Whopperitos with the tortilla replaced by the outside shell of the Mac'n'Cheetos, we will languish the days of the only innovations from Burger King coming in the form of "new fries." The Whopperito is inoffensive in the most offensive way. It's not bad enough to be that upset about but it also is so wholly unnecessary as to be insulting.

    Packaging: There's something disconcerting about seeing the form of a burrito next to french fries. It's unnatural.

    Intangibles: Burger King has gone off the fucking rails. Like, the Mac'n'Cheetos I sort of understood. On paper it's not really all that bad of an idea and they probably got a nice boost in customers for the novelty. The Whopperito is Burger King just embracing the novelty but not even in a clever way. This is Burger King trying to capitalize off of the smidgen of good publicity they got for their last novelty item and then being lazy as fuck about it. When Taco Bell shits out another one of their stuffed, double decker, Doritos, deep-fried tacodilla it makes sense. They've embrace the stoner ethos of just absolute culinary fuckery but that's not Burger King's game and it's pretty obvious.

    Overall: I would never order another Whopperito. I didn't finish the one I had. And not even because it was bad but just because there was no point. It was the very definition of "meh."

    Rating: I don't even care enough to bother, just like Burger King.

    Yes, but rhyme is dictated by the ending syllables. Row and oh rhyme.

    That's nonsense. Auto and veto don't rhyme.

    I'm gonna pull the "I"m a high school English teacher" card and say that those words also rhyme, rhymes like that and, to an extent gyro and churro, are called slant rhyme.
