Apparently, Taco Bell and McD's are in some kind of breakfast fight. Well, at least Taco Bell thinks so. I'm pretty sure that McD's is only mildly annoyed.

So, does this make you want to run right out and grab a Taco Bell? It's been years since I was to either place, but I do recall the McD breakfasts as okay. Full disclosure - I never had food poisoning from either chain.

Cool commercial, regardless of one's geometric preference. And I do confess I always found Ronald a bit creepy . . . unlike a talking chihuahua. :r

I always found geometry a breeze. It was calculus that gave me angina.


Oh, you meant the food itself. Never mind.

Great little film!!! I loved it.

Is it a great commercial? I suppose time will tell, but I enthusiastically applaud the ad makers.

In 9th grade on a class field trip to the state capital 3 people got food poisoning from the McDonalds we had breakfast at, that was the last time I ever at at McDonalds. As for Taco Bell, I bought a burrito there bout 20 years ago, I took one bite and threw it in the trash. Let them war, if there are no survivors so be it.

I guess it beats the ones that TB currently run. They seem to make a HUGE deal out of the fact that their breakfast thingie has the hash brown in with it while McD's doesn't. Hey TB, I like my hash brown separate, so stop mocking me!

I can't remeber the last time I've eaten Taco Bell food. I use the term food loosely here.

At least the story line is easier to follow than 'Hunger Games' or 'Divergent'.
