Welcome to Ronson Vs. where I set forth to right the injustices of society. For instance, today I search for a missing taco.The story: It had been awhile since I ordered the crispy tacos at Chipotle. And I used to freaking love the tacos – what can I say? I preferred crunchy over doughy. They're slightly healthier. Plus you'd get four tacos and any mess you made could be made into a taco salad at the end of the meal. Seriously, it's perfect.
Yesterday, after the longest Chipotle burrito streak I can remember, I went back to the basics and ordered the tacos. Only something was different. Something was missing. In fact, one taco was missing. It was odd: the price had stayed the same, but it was definitely three tacos instead of the regular four. Is there a shortage on taco shells that I'm unaware of?
Winner: Currently stands at a draw. I didn't bother to ask about it because I imagined one of the following happening: 1) Blank stares, 2) Someone yells "No! Only three tacos!" at me, or 3) Both. I couldn't deal with any of that. It was enough of a jolt that I won't be ordering them again anytime soon (four tacos seemed like a steal, three tacos just seems...average). But don't worry, the next time I do, I'll get to the bottom of this and I might even film the results, Dateline style.

Now that's a story I can sink my teeth into......pun intended.
It's just wrong, I tell ya! I'm gonna demand a 4th taco next time...
That happened to me too! The crispy tacos are the only thing I've ever gotten there and one day the fourth one was gone! With no notice!
You get to the bottom of this!!!
All right, if Mymy's dealing with this too, now I really gotta figure out what's going down...
Okay .. three days ago I went to a Chip and ordered the usual like I have for three years now: four crispy tacos. Only, I got home to find they short-tacoed me. I was angry and felt ripped off. Tonight, I went to a different Chip, and again odered the hard tacos. Got home .. short-tacoed again! I Googled and found your blog. This is obviously a corporate decision, and I'm going to complain like it's 1999! The price is the same, and the volume of food has gone down. Time for pitchforks and torches, people!
