Swine Flu, eh. Twitter, maybe.
But Carne Asada Fries?
Frankly, if you’re going this route, why not go all the way? To me, Chorizo, rather than Carne Asada would be doing it up in style.
Edit: My friends over at Married…With Dinner dropped me a note to tell me Carne Asada Fries are something of a Southern California phenomenon. A friend of theirs recently wrote up a blog post about the subject. Check it out: Carne Asada Fries. Bong Not Included.
In case you’re wondering where this mad mash up of Canadian Poutine and Mexican food can be had in San Francisco, I spotted it last Friday as a lunch special at Carmelina’s Taqueria in the Millberry Union on the UCSF Parnassus campus. Perhaps next week, I will risk life and limb for an in the flesh photo.
You’re going to need to check this site out, Erik, if you haven’t:

Mmmmm….at Alberto’s I believe they call those “Super Nachos” or “Super Nacho Fries.” I forget which. All I can say is MMMMMMMmmmmmmmm
