I had some french fries from In-N-Out Burger.
The french fries were skinny fries, they weren't too salty, and they were seasoned just right. They were pretty soft (just a tiny bit crisp) on the outside, and they were very soft on the inside. The taste of potato was stronger in these fries than other french fries I have had. The stronger potato taste made them really delicious. French fries from In-N-Out are probably my favorite french fries.
We ate some nachos with steak from La Salsa Mexican Grill for dinner.
I always get the nachos with only cheese and meat and with guacamole on the side because I don't like the beans, roja sauce, and sour cream with my nachos. I also prefer scooping the guacamole with my nachos, rather than eating them mixed in with the cheese.
Sometimes when I go to La Salsa they burn the nachos a little bit, but this time the nachos were perfect. The nachos were crunchy and tasty. They were thin nachos, but not super thin. The cheese was just standard melted jack and cheddar shredded cheeses, which I liked.
The steak was a little dry, but they still had a nice seasoning and tasted pretty good. I would have preferred more steak with the nachos.
The guacamole I asked for on the side was delicious. It tasted fresh, and I liked the avocado and tomato chunks that were in it.
I tried six of the different salsas from the salsa bar with the nachos. I tend to like sweeter salsas over saltier ones. Of the ones I tried, this is a list in order of my favorite to least favorite:
1. Mango Salsa - A little spicy, had the sweet taste of mango with mango chunks (my favorite).
2. Buena Salsa - Dark red salsa, tomato-y, a little watery, similar to salsas from grocery stores
3. Avocado Salsa - Tastes like a creamier and saltier guacamole
4. Deliciosa Salsa - A little sweet, but not very sweet. It was a little watery and onion-y.
5. Roasted Tomato Salsa - Spicy and salty with a tomato-y and cilantro-y taste.
6. Mexicana Salsa - Just tastes like a bunch of chopped tomatoes with salt added.

I had some soft tacos from Taco Bell for dinner.
The tortillas were nice and soft, and they tasted good. The tortillas weren't sour like the ones that they often sell at grocery stores, and the tortillas weren't dry, either.
The cheese, lettuce, and beef on the inside of the taco was OK; the beef tasted good and had a savory taco seasoning taste, but the beef was a little mushy.
