Whataburger paled in comparison to the old Merry Go Round drive in on Berry St.
But Frito Pie seemed an absolute gourmet delicacy compared to one of the items that used to appear on the public school lunches in the little west Texas down I lived in for a couple of years in the '80's: hotdog tacos. A boiled hotdog in a taco shell.

OH MY GOD... childhood flashback (my parents NOW live down the street from Paschal for point of reference). I can remember going to Mehl's Shoeland every six months to buy new ballet shoes back when we still lived at Eagle Mountain Lake and getting to go to the Merry Go Round.
Always a treat.
I'm a huge Frito pie girl... at the moment, I that the best one around is at Sonic (that if you don't count the one my mom makes). I am always on the hunt for a better one though!
