Humphammer's Market and Deli's spicy chili with a hot tamale and a Lipton Diet Green Tea with citrus.  Whoa-- there is still a Humphammer's???? I thought the only one was across from Thress, and that one closed awhile ago. Did they just move down the road or something? Where have I been? |

My wife shares your opinion.
There are a lot of people who like Chipotle better than Moe's. I thought Chipotle was just OK. I like Moe's best out of all of those Calimex places.
I like Chipotle ok, their meat is supposed to be the healthiest I think. Whatever.... There's also a place here called Bajio grill which has excellent fish and shrimp tacos. I think it's a growing chain. |

Don't know where you've been. Hump has been opened at the same location for over 25 years now. The business that closed was directly across Beaver Creek from Thress at the corner of Beaver Creek and Clinton Highway. It was a dry cleaners in half of it, and ther were several businesses in the other half of the building over the past several years. Hump's is the next building up on Clinton Highway, across from Walgreen's and next to the car wash. Thress owns the building where the businesses closed and now uses it as part of their nursery. |

No, that's not the one I'm talking about. I'm talking about the business that had gas pumps. Wasn't that Hump's? Did they just stop selling gas? |

Yep. He stopped selling gas back during the first huge gas price jump, back in 2005 when gas hit $3 per gallon. As an independent gas seller, he couldn't break even, much less make a proffit selling gas. He never did close his store. |

Yes, but Baja Fresh in Cool Springs is no longer there... that's where Chipotle is. |

One of the better Calimex places I've eaten is Taqueria del Sol in Atlanta. And they had a full bar (killer Margaritas). As far as the health aspect, there is so much sodium in that stuff that it doesn't matter if you go naked with no dairy... the sodium will still kill you. |

Moe's, then Chipotle, then n ia poor third Qdoba. That being said, I think I've eaten at any of the 3 maybe a total of 5-6 times. |

with coke zero? It only tastes good with real coke !
I can't consume the sugar contained in a real coke. But I've found coke zero to be a pretty darned close substitute. Same with sprite zero. God bless the folks at Coca-Cola Co. who came up with those drinks. Now if we could just get a sweet tea zero.  |

Oh I agree, as far as drinking it by itself or with lunch, etc...I love coke zero and don't drink sugar drinks, but I have found that peanuts don't go well with diet coke or zero. |
