They both can be shitty and they both can be very good when made the right way (corn tortillas especially). At least shitty flour tortillas still hold together. Shitty corn tortillas fall apart. 7/26/2014 9:41:53 AM

^^I can agree with that. The best corn tortilla > the best flour tortilla. But it's way easier to fuck up corn tortillas.
I grew up working on my parents' farm and usually the Mexican employees would bring their own lunch....homemade corn tortillas are fucking delicious.

Eh I like both of them. Authenticity is an overrated concept.
Those packs of 400 corn tortillas for $2.36 at food lion are never all that good unless you're frying them, but I've made homemade corn tortillas that are delicious. 7/26/2014 10:16:24 PM

In what way? Taste is the most important thing in food and both authentic and localized/hybridized foods can be either delicious or disgusting.
Obviously taste is subjective and some people might find authentic style foods more naturally pleasing to their palate, but someone who lets authenticity rule their senses is an idiot.
RAWR RAWR RAWR THIS TACO HAS SOUR CREAM ON IT!!!!!!! NATIVE MEXICANS DIDN'T HAVE SOUR CREAM WHEN THE TACO WAS INVENTED A THOUSAND YEARS AGO SO THIS TACO IS GARBAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7/26/2014 10:36:53 PM

^^^LOL, who orders a margarita at Applebee's? I wind up at Applebee's when I'm starving and desperate...I wanna eat and get out, not sip on a margarita and linger over my chicken fingers.
But, seriously, nearly all margaritas are good.
When Chipotle first opened in Raleigh though, they had terrible margaritas. They were on the menu so they would serve them to you if your ordered one...and then you just had to act surprised when it was awful and get you a coupon for a free burrito!
^LOL

Who orders anything at Applebee's? In all honesty I've never had one because I don't step foot in that disgusting place, but I can only assume they're filled with nasty sour mix.

Not really. Have you had the margaritas at Dos Taquitos? Perhaps I'm a margarita snob or something. Sour mix is gross ] 7/26/2014 11:53:52 PM

Long road trips are usually when I end up at Applebee's and the like, or if I'm with a friend who needs a non-judgmental companion to help them eat loaded potato skins, cheese sticks, and spin dip. 7/27/2014 12:05:59 AM

Dude Applebee's is a disgusting establishment. There's plenty of non-fine dining places better than that.

That's one of my favorite Raleigh restaurants. I've been eating there for what feels like at least 15 years. And I'm weird so I don't like to hear you talk about my place. ![](images/beatup.gif) 7/27/2014 12:28:24 AM

If you (in general) don't order them by the pitcher you're a rookie! Totally worth it.

Dos taquitos changed their taco Tuesday "special" to a tiny taco on a now corn tortilla sans cheese allegedly to make it more authentic
Luckily theres still free chips and $5 margaritas.

less than 30 miles away.
there is one other restaurant with a bar, but i'm not a fan. the people there are dicks. applebee's is the only chain non-fast food restaurant around. also the only place to watch sports.
i would never choose to go to an applebee's anywhere else, when there are actually other decent places to go. ] 7/27/2014 8:19:17 PM
