Just saw these two alts chilling on a ‘fourth meal’ at Taco Dell. Not sure if they are ‘pregaming’, ‘after partying’ or spending their evening at a Taco-Centric party.
I remember when Taco Bell came out with a marketing gimmick called ‘the Fourth Meal.’ Think that the concept of a Fourth Meal which exists between dinner & lunch is supposed to appeal 2 people who are up late at night ‘doing drugs’ or ‘drinking’, or possibly ‘poor people who work in the janitorial industry.’ I believe that it was made to combat the ‘health craze’ where ur supposed to regulate ur calories and eat things that are ‘good 4 u.’
Here is a commercial that is a ‘tutorial’ for the 4th meal way of life.
Feel like I can really identify with the fourth meal. Think it promotes ‘independence’ and creating your own form of happiness, even if you are doing something that might be ‘killing urself.’ From what I understand, when u eat late and fall asleep soon afterwards, your body stores the fat, much like a grizzly bear who is about to hibernate. The more fat you have, the more diabetes cells your body creates, and before you know it, one of your legs are being chopped off because you enjoyed ur life [via eating fast food].
Not sure if I even want to ‘party’ any more. Might find some sort of solace in ‘comfort food.’ Might eat tons of snacks/meal-sized portions, and take tons of naps. Want to find more things to do between dinner and breakfast–I feel ‘most alive’ during that time, sorta like a vampire who eats ‘junk food.’ Really just respect the fact that Bel Taco was able to shatter existing societal norms, like ‘the food pyramid’, and replace it with ‘the square.’
Seems like Del Taco really ‘gets’ me. What’s yalls fave ‘late nite snack’ joint? Do u ‘feel guilty’ when u ‘binge’ on fast food? Or is it fun 2 be ironic sometimes when ur buzzed + in a group setting?
Just want to be part of something larger than myself.
Just want to be a Fourth Mealer.
Wish I could be uneducated and poor, working a job ‘late at night.’ Wish I knew nothing about ‘nutritional values’ and could ’slowly kill myself’ without having to ‘overthink it.’ Might buy a CLIF bar or something.

4th meal is ok I guess. Jack in the Box van guy commercial was a more effective appeal to the late-night stoner market IMO.

Fuck the entirely non-alt food pyramid, which subscribes to unauthentic philosophies such as nutritionism and other shit. Being a Fourth Mealer is so fucking alt at the moment (but then some unauthentic corporation, such as Popeye’s will taint the concept).

Had 4th meal, once. Had to pull over and ‘throw the fuck up’. Didn’t taste nearly as good the second time around.

‘fourthmeal’ used to be ordering pancakes and black coffee at Denny’s at 4 in the morning with that friend of yours who’s really into ‘candy-flipping’ after a long night at The Castle. now it is tacos and mountain dew with beer pong enthusiasts. shame.

@vivi,
u’ve said zactly what i wanted to say but didn’t have the words, thx for the coherence. it certainly is a shame.

by ridding your site of all your questionable posts from the past you failed to realize your true achilles-heel:
you cannot be “snarky” while including quotes after almost every single set of words you post. remove the quotes and behold a greater sense of hipster douche right before your eyes.
or you can just keep your quotes and continue to look like a pimple-sized-dick to insecure with his inner douche to actually say something.
you hipster fag.

Do you think they put in extra kitten meat for “fourthmealers”?

the truly alt thing to do is to not eat fast food at all

Brunch is the 4th meal, always has bin always will be.
If this shit b anyting, it’s a 5th meal – and they need a name, they need to brand the 5th meal!!! They have no brand, who paid them for this shit? Branding 101 is get a brand, and use it hard.
Suggestions are
1. dinnerfast (obvious, but would appeal to demographic who this meal is aimed at )
2. munchies – appeals to core demographic, good recognition amongst same
2. fiorentina – means nothing but has a nice ring to it
