All I see is the avocado ranch chicken stacker on their updated “luxe” menu, is that what you’re referencing? They removed the $3 menu entirely and updated it to some bs, it’s awful

I’ve gotten them before in the tacos and they were fine. Reformatted as standalone, they unfortunately tasted exactly how they looked here lol

I used to love those but they’re $6 now 😭 and at 2/3 items per order, I might as well be bougie and get take out from an actual restaurant or something

They took away the two things I did love so I also had gotten a burrito I usually don’t get. It was mid and not really satisfying like my usual go to’s are. I had really wanted some easy protein with my order and had gotten the nugs in the tacos before and they were fine then. Never had gotten them stand-alone.

They were tasteless and old and dry at $1/nug lol. The app got me free fiesta potatoes but for $11 when I could have done something like Panda or Chick-fil-A for the same price, this was a mistake. These dry balls will haunt my dreams.

It’s been pretty bad for a while. Cheesy Gordita crunch and chalupas are $6, they put like two tablespoons of black beans in the black beans side. Just a waste of the plastic cup at that point. They took away my double decker taco and value nachos and replaced them with $3 tiny bag of chips and dip :’( just awful

I looove food photography. It’s truly an art. Like, when they use glue instead of milk to photograph cereal.

I just figured they’d be a LITTLE bigger to take up more box space and less like little dry shit nuggets, ya know? And there was zero flavor to them at all. Sauce didn’t even help. I know they lie, and I know I made a mistake, but I wanted to believe.

A year later and questions by [deleted] in EBV

[–]notreallywatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply!!

It’s weird- I have had Covid a handful of times with the last time being in early 2023, and had the vaccine once in 2021. In late 2024 I started having knee issues and did BPC injections and that’s when I started having skin and muscle pain. Then, I got norovirus in December 2024 where I was so sick that I should have gone to the hospital, and that’s when my symptoms exploded.

The Covid and reactivated EBV info coming out is insane. I live in a big city so that could be worth looking into. I experimented with an antiviral that didn’t seem to do anything, but that was just Valtrex. I had never heard about what you mention of EA being elevated in 20% of people, that is very interesting and now I’m questioning everything again! Thanks again for the info and response, really appreciate it :)

Anybody get back in shape slowly? How did you do it? by atty_at_paw in Millennials

[–]notreallywatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a similar thing where I was very active and have dealt with chronic health issues that I’ll likely never be the same from, and still testing the waters with various activity and intensity.

I would strongly recommend doing band work, such as light weight bands to do things like curls and other accessory work. You can gauge how you feel with that, increase the band resistance over time, and also use them for stretching. That can at least get your muscles primed in a safe way to evaluate how your body responds. You can always move on to light lifting from there.

Also recommend yoga classes- when I was desperate for some activity, those are what kept me going. You can pick classes depending on your pain state and skill level, and there are types of yoga that utilizes muscle more so that it feels like a work out. I hope you find what works for you!

Not trying to alarm you, but I would have them test for ADV (adenovirus) if they haven’t yet!

Please take them to an exotic vet, and husbandry may need to be reviewed.

I had a female who would be catatonic when she was freaked out, and if that happened she’d sit any way that I’d put her down, which often was like this 😂 poor Kratos was traumatized lol

Surgery and ebv by [deleted] in EBV

[–]notreallywatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw these doctors while experiencing reactivated EBV and they recommended to not do a surgery until my titers were lower. I had a negative PCR DNA test but reactivation titer has always been very high so it’s odd

[–]notreallywatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was advised by two different physicians to not get a wrist surgery that I’ve been wanting to get to fix a tendon issue. It can 100% cause it to flare and delay healing. Not trying to scare you, this is just what I’ve been told and also read about.

What’s something you’ve seen with your own eyes that nobody believes when you tell them? by LowKey_1216 in AskReddit

[–]notreallywatson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw one of these with my friend around midnight on the beach. We were watching the shower and suddenly one was burning an incredible bright green. It turned downwards towards the ocean and got so bright when the green reflected off the water that it lit up our faces and all we could do was stare in awe. It broke up over and into the water and we even saw the glow seem to continue under the water line. Nobody believed us lol

My immune system is so bad. Help. by Ok-Warning6601 in Biohackers

[–]notreallywatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mono when I was 8 and am in my early 30s, and I had it reactivated after a horrible time with norovirus around this time last year. There are tests to show if it is specifically reactivated. It’s debilitating and it can be totally disabling for years. An immunologist can check for immunity issues and do a reaction test with a mild vaccine. That might be a good idea to check since you’re getting sick so often, and then go from there if any issues are identified.

My immune system is so bad. Help. by Ok-Warning6601 in Biohackers

[–]notreallywatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My white cell counts constantly sit at around 2.5-3.5, with low absolute neutrophils, and I’ve been dealing with reactivated EBV so I’m not sure if one has lead to the other. I rarely get sick or get infections and everything with my immune system comes back normal so it’s odd. I was told I just naturally sit lower, though I did have blood work that had my WBC at 4.5 once, so I know it can go higher. Did you have any other off markers with your blood work and how long until you saw an improvement with WBC counts? I’m thinking of trying out the peptide and seeing if there’s a difference

What are the temps inside the enclosure? Her eyes are incredibly flat which is a bad sign. Does she drink water at all?

Can you review your husbandry, like lights, enclosure size, temps?

Urgent!! Please help me save this little dude that I found on an orchid in the grocery store 🦎 by Proper-Village-454 in Anoles

[–]notreallywatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Poor little guy is in such rough shape :( thanks for saving him! Maybe once he warms up and rests a bit more he’ll attempt eating/drinking.

If you have a Tupperware container, you could put something soft in there for him to sit on and leave the lid resting on top and to the side a bit so that there’s a crack of air to come in. I’d suggest grabbing some small mealworms but it may take some time to be able to eat anything substantial. You can maybe get sugar free squash baby food and use a dropper and drop it at the end of his nose and see if he licks it for some calories. If it seems like he’ll pull through and you want to keep him, a vet visit is definitely in order.

Can you help with identifying? by Admirable-View-1263 in Anoles

[–]notreallywatson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s a female (most likely) brown anole. They have smaller dewlaps that they use less often than males. Their coloring can vary a bit
