When Fast Food Restaurants Collide

They've had Taco Bell/KFC combo's around Delaware for a while now --- it's kind of a nice thing when you're having a really odd craving day.

But it's a nice benefit of one company owning those three -- it's just amazing they had the foresight to try to munge them all together.

Chicken Taco Pizza...

That actually sounds pretty good. Instead of combining menus, they need to combine ingredients!

WE've had KFC / Taco Bells around here for a while, but I'vew never seen a three way.

There's a three way one somewhere around here. There are also a couple combinations of two of them, but I know I've seen a 3 way, too, since I was tempted to get a pizza and some tacos and a biscuit at some point.

I love the 3-Way fast food places. Chicken Soft Tacos and Personal Pan Pizza all in the same place. NICE!!

While we see the KFC/Taco Bell combo in Delaware for awhile now, I havent seen the KFC/TB/Pizza Hut Combo since I was living in Lynchburg. It was right across from the station where I worked, and made for many a pleasant evening of munching. :)

I alerted a friend who works for Yum! about todays Ping, but can't really make public comment on company policy.

However, he told me you can expect to start seeing a lot more 2 in 1 stores, particularly Taco Bell / Long John Silvers in places that have never had LJS in the past.

Fish Tacos. Yum! indeed.

They had a hard enough time getting my order right when there was one restaurant in one building. I'm afraid I am going to pull into the drive through, order a pizza and get a bucket of chicken instead.

The two best combo restuarants ever are: 1) White Castle/Churches Chicken and 2) A&W/Long John Silvers. There is an A&W/LJS combo in Richmond, which I have eaten at with Robert. Ryan and I spotted the White Castle/Churches Chicken combo in New Jersey once, and I have seen more of them in Tennessee.

In Georgia we have a Baskin Robbins/Quizno's/Dunkin Doughnuts and Taco Bell/KFC, but I have yet to see the splendor of the Taco Bell/KFC/Pizza Hut.

We have something similar to Barbara's, as well, but it's a Baskin Robbins/Togo's/Dunkin Doughnuts.

Yeah, I've seen the Baskin Robbins/ ToGo's/ Dunkin' Donuts before. That in and of itself is somewhat scary. ("Donut with your hot sandwich?")

Of course, you don't really need a two in one style place if you have a Sheetz nearby..

For 'research purposes', I ate lunch at a local KFC/Taco Bell, and got the Chicken Strips/Taco Combo. 2 Large Chicken Strips, 2 Tacos, Potato Wedges and a drink for 4.29. Not too shabby. I didn't feel like making the combo a large, which for 89 cents, adds another taco and makes it a large drink. Geez. I'd be in the gym for 8 hours if I did that...

Ahhhh.......Baskin Robbins and Dunkin' Donuts......we have neither in my county. To have them together would be a dream for me.

A woman who wants donuts and ice cream at the same time is a woman after my own heart. ;)

My personal favorite is the KFC/Panda Express - mmm, Kentucky Fried Panda...

Fish Tacos. Yum! indeed.

I'm glad I didn't have to make that joke.

Matt: In addition to the A&W/LJS there's not an LJS/KFC on Broad.

I remember a place like that in Coronado, CA, back around '92, and what I remember best was that people liked to call it "KenTacoHut"

We used to call the KFC/Taco Bell places "Cornel Sanchez"

I hope "Colonel Sanchez" doesn't have a "dirty sanchez" on the menu.

There is a KFC/Long John Silvers in Sycamore, IL along Route 23 which used to be just a KFC (before they gave it a makeover).
