Round And Round
I have lived long enough to see some pretty strange bedfellows, the result of partnerships and collaborations that often leave people scratching their heads. Sometimes they work out, but in other cases, they wind up tarnishing the images of both parties, in spite of their best intentions.
Following yesterday’s announcement that Krispy Kreme Donuts will soon be available in all McDonald’s in the US, I was once again scratching my head. On paper, both companies see this product placement as a way to bolster sales. McDonald’s apparently needs a little more oomph with its breakfast offerings, especially an item that is very inexpensive.
And Krispy Kreme? Once the darling of pop culture a couple of decades ago, they rose to a showy display like a Fourth of July fireworks show, only to come floating down as a bunch of smoldering sparks. Rapid expansion was followed by an equally rapid retrenchment, with the closure of many shops, and ultimately finding grace with Walmart, who sells their donuts.
But when you can add 13,500 more locations with a signature on the line? That’s worth turning on the neon again.
Tumblr media
So why the concern? It seems like a win/win for both, right? Not so fast, you cinnamon-coated cruller, you.
First of all, Krispy Kreme needs to be doubly certain it can ramp up its supply chain. That’s a lot of new delivery points, and all within the span of a couple of years. Furthermore, it is not just about keeping the pipeline filled, as it also means KK will have to double down on kitchen space as well. If it fails at any point, the whole arrangement comes tumbling down.
And then there’s the potential that donuts could seriously detract from McDonald’s core business, which is sandwiches, be they breakfast ones or burger, chicken, and fish ones. Furthermore, a donut case will take up space, something that its franchisees may not be happy about having to accommodate. This is a system-wide decision, and is not negotiable.
While McDonald’s is no stranger to selling other people’s products, thus far that has been limited to Coca-Cola soft drinks. Adding a branded food item is quite different, though. It could almost be thought of as a competing item.
But being a reseller is still better than trying to do all of the heavy lifting yourself. It would be impossible to retrofit McDonald’s restaurants with all of the deep frying and conveyor belt apparatus necessary for making donuts. Stipulating that a smallish display case be shoe-horned into the picture is a lot easier.
Then there’s the issue of freshness. I realize that packaged KK donuts at Walmart have no doubt been coated in a preservative. But when on display in a restaurant, there is a different expectation, and that being daily delivery of fresh product. McDonald’s hints a little that they don’t plan on stocking too many, because their plan right now is to sell them singly or in boxes of six until they sell out each day. This then implies that Krispy Kreme is going to be doing a lot of baking at night, and delivering before dawn.
McDonald’s and other fast food eateries have come under pressure of late because of inflation and rising prices. In fact, McDonald’s own research revealed that some lower income customers are now opting to prepare their own breakfast at home, because it is cheaper. Adding donuts that cost a little more than $1 apiece is almost like throwing a bone to the poor people. We can only hope that people don’t figure that out.
Even after writing 700 words this morning, I am still scratching my head. As I see it, KK needs McDonald’s more than McD’s needs KK. It’s almost as if McDonald’s blinked, and from what I have seen on the social graph, I am not alone in this assessment.As in all things, we shall see. And yeah, those donuts are pretty tasty, no matter who is selling them.

“Vines” aka Human Cries: an intergalactic guide.
@thecatchat @wilboo-soot 
If you’ve ever worked with or fought or interacted with a human there is a high likelihood you’ve witnessed one of their many cries. Whether another human called, they answered a phrase from a machine or report, they called to themselves, or you unknowingly instigated one of them, you were probably confused as all space. 
You see, humans are very social creatures. One of their ways of socializing is by instigating these calls. One might cry out and all- no matter what side they are on or what they are dong- will answer. Most everyone agrees, it’s unnerving. BUT, there is no need to fear! It is simply a cultural habit. In this paper, I will outline some phrases to avoid/recognize and what they mean. 
[list under the cut]
----
1. DON'T FUCK WITH ME (US)
2. I'VE (WE'VE) GOT THE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON MY (OUR) SIDE
A war cry. A scream of defiance and strength. It's not quite certain what an anime is yet but those who attempt to study humans, along with humans themselves, assure us it is something to fear.
----
1. [Road] Work head?
2. Uh, yeah I sure hope is does
A prayer for protection. A reminder of skepticism and diligence even when safety appears obvious.  
---
1. [Rebecca] It's not what it looks like!
2. I won't hesitate, bitch.
A more blatant exclamation. Said to convey ruthlessness in the face of perceived betrayal. Often, the beginning is merely implied as only the answering call is said. Unlike other cries, this is not one that necessitates an answer.
---
1. This bitch empty!
2. YEET
A cry of power and physical prowess. Used often with their biological ability to throw with their bare arms. Another where the full mantra is not said and they simply recite the final part. It is used so often it has become a staple of their language, describing something being moved with great force. 
---
1. And they were roommates!
2. Oh my god, they were roommates.
An implication of romance. Something of a fascination to historians. It is believed its origins have no clear implication of such yet its meaning is entirely accepted. 
---
Look at all those [chickens.]
Misidentifying something with juvenile glee or confidence. A single phrase, no completion required. 
---
1. When will you learn? When will you learn
2. THAT YOUR ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES? 
Another more blatant example. An insult, a harsh apathy towards your failings, disapproval, embodiment of karma, and a shrill reminder of reason. Notably, the scorn is without smugness and rather contains distress. It is often quoted when they are just as displeased with the consequences as you.
---
1. Two guys chillin' in a hot tub 
2. Five feet apart ‘cause they’re not gay.
An implication of romance in dissidence. Often alluded to with forbidden, stigmatized, or in-denial/”blind” lovers. 
---
[T-T-T-T-T-TARGET]
This one is difficult to explain with text as most of its influence comes from the tone of voice used. The word itself varies wildly (”target” is the original). Essentially, if some form of script display is malfunctioning they will enounce it accordingly.  
---
Freshavacado
A similar cry to the last example, but instead of malfunctioning it is employed when something is messily/unclearly written. Generally, they will sound out the jumbled letters three times. First stumbling through the made up pronunciation, next complete in a humorous tone, and finally they will yell it, probably laughing. 
(A reminder, laughter is not a threat. It is a natural sound they emit when humored. Although, human humor can come from many strange, basically any, things.)
---
Back at it again at Krispy Kreme
Another single phrase used to insight reckless, destructive, and joyous, but ultimately not intended to be damaging, performance.  
---
1. [Chris], is that a weed? 
2. No, this is a [crayon]. 
3. I’m calling the police!
A mockery of pointless and contrived justice. 
---
[Mary], is that a police? I’m calling the weed!
A subversion of the previous call, normalization/empowering of a rebellion or outlaw. 
---
[What up?] My name is Jared, I’m 19, and I never fucking learned how to read.
Self deprecation in light. A humored approach of self criticism, lovingly and drastically hyperbolating their failures. Sometimes used as a refusal to do paperwork. 
---
1. Why the fuck you lying? Why you always lying?
2. Mmmm, oh my god, stop fucking lying!
A cheerful but spiteful insult. A brag, an accusation, a bold and brazen declaration of disbelief. In human language they have a word that captures its meaning quite simply. A “Call out.” 
(Note: While in their nature to complete and begin these calls, please remember that it is informal even in their culture and not appropriate for political meetings. Even in, as I’m sure many humans will claim, it is “totally called for.”) 
---
1. What do you have?
2. A [KNIFE!]
3. NO!
Authoritative denial of power or the wielding danger. This is one of the few often used with non-humans due to it’s simplistic question-answer structure, aided by the human acceptance of silence as an answer.
Don’t worry about it starting any serious conflict though! This is used mainly for beings it is accepted to be controlling over such as children, “pets,” and (for some reason) cleaning droids. Even when the human is often the one who bestowed the dangerous item to the droid in the first place... and it never answers... because it is a vacuum with wheels... 
++++++
This ends the summary of what you’ll be most likely to encounter. There are hundreds more, of course, but they’re generally self-contained or obscure and not so far reaching across humanity. That being said, there are other things you should be aware of. 
While the ones listed are all generally harmless, there are curses among humanity that are incredibly offensive. If there are any humans reading this I suggest you stop now for your own safety. 
++++++
It is best to avoid: 
Referring to losing an unnamed game. 
- While you probably are not discussing the specific Game it may inadvertently allude to it and seriously upset nearby humans. 
- They have spent centuries attempting to wipe It from their collective consciousness, It is best left unspoken and unthought of. 
Using a set of symbols resembling lines split in quadrants. 
- Especially in the order of one tall line, a tall line and a short line, two tall lines, and a tall line with a horizontal line.  
- It is a curse. A foreboding message of pain and misfortune, so much so they simply refer to it as “Loss.”
BE CAUTIOUS of the Rolling Tricktster  
- He is an ancient human deity of deceit and guile. His song perpetuates the galaxy, he is used as an insult, a game, a lie. 
- Those who use his image practice the art of luring and betrayal. They are sirens of misinformation and false promises. 
- Your human companions may be one of them but this does not grant them immunity. You also will not be safe, be alert and be cautious, lest you fall the the old god Astley as well.

Yes you are seeing it right, we are reviewing Taco Bell, while it can be so normal for Americans in New Zealand this is something special because we never had a Taco Bell up until last November 2019.  New Zealand is far from everyone, we don’t have a big population hence large multinational food companies choose this as their last venture because it may not be economically viable (that’s my assumption), hence popular American fast food joints like Dairy Queen, Little Caesars, Sonic, Papa Johns, Arbys, In and Out, Auntie Annes and Panda Express to name some are not yet here.  Don’t worry the bigger ones like McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, KFC and Dunkin Donuts are all present and was here ever since I made my way to Auckland more than 14 years ago but like Taco Bell when they do come for the first time, Kiwis flock and queue like its and iPhone release date.  We already saw this when Carl’s Jr and Krispy Kreme opened its doors for the first time, people went crazy for it.
We did not go on the first few months to avoid long queues, but we are dying to try this out of curiosity more than anything else, hence we visited last January, two months after the opening.  Like Carl’s Jr and Krispy Kreme the fad died down so we can eat in peace without the massive amounts of people trying to grab that taco or burrito.  Taco Bell at this stage have low score reviews getting 3.4 score in Zomato and 3.2 in Google Review but most of the comments were related to the long queues, dirty tables and long serving times which is most probably a remnant of the hype together with the volume of people during those times, but if that review was for today I guess it would have been a better story.  Having said that I am not implying that their offering was phenomenal, for whatever’s sake this is a fast food!  It will always be salty, it won’t be gourmet and it will not look fancy like what we usually get in Cafes or a proper Mexican restaurant, it’s like comparing normal rock melons to the Japanese rock melons, it is a different category.
In my honest opinion, the food was good in terms of fast food, I had a lot of S#!+ fast food, trust me around South East Asia there are a lot of those small players and this is much more palatable than those.  Food was tasty and filling (multiple orders), that’s it, nothing special but it sorts out that craving in you, like how McDonalds sort you out when you are craving for fries, ice cream Cone or a burger, like I said for fast food it was great and we should stop at that, this is not Mexico Restaurant or The Mexican Cafe, and it’s not pretending to be.
So what we had was the following items.  First was their Loaded Nachos, prepared with their seasoned tortilla chips, protein of your choice, sour cream, guacamole, and fiesta salsa.
Next was this Chicken Quesadilla another staple made with soft tortilla filled with grilled chicken, lots of cheese and creamy jalapeno sauce.  This was served with Nacho Chips on the side.
We also had the Big Bell Box where it contains items like the Crunchy Taco, Beefy Cheesy Burrito, Regular Mexican Fries, Cinnamon Twists and a Regular Drink.  Crunchy Taco are made with crunchy taco shells served with seasoned beef, shredded iceberg lettuce and topped with cheddar cheese.  It also contains one Beefy Cheese Burrito , a soft tortilla with seasoned beef, warm nacho cheese sauce, creamy jalapeno sauce & crunchy nachos to give the perfect bite.
With the Big Bell Box, Mexican Fries was included plus Cinnamon twists which are made with puffed corn twists and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar.
Honestly, we loved them all, in a fast food kind of way.  They are all tasty, some we in the border of salty, everything was Cheesy (processed cheesy that is, OMG for some reason I love it) but most of it was not meaty enough.  Tacos and Burritos does not contain much protein and it’s all that cheesy goodness that brings the whole meal together.  Another thing is that their serving sizes are small, at least for a hungry me.  So if you’re here just for a taco and hungry, I suggest you get four of them.  For the Beefy Cheesy Burrito you might need at least two, the serving size of Nacho is OK.
Fries was amazing, Cinnamon twists was so light while it was addictively good, it’s like eating flavoured air, its lighter than corn puffs you will ever try.  Drinks was free flowing, like the ones you see in Burger Kings.
It was still dirty but not that much when we visited, for me its normal like most fast food joints, and to give you a comparison, McDonalds in Queen St is still worse than this.  So will I come back? Definitely, especially when I crave for that processed cheese melt that they put on those quesadilla and burrito; those things are like crack! It’s addictive, at least to me.
