I've downgraded Ted's unfortunately. In the many times I have gone back, when I have had the footlong, every time I've been disappointed. I remember it tasting better. I think it just tastes funky. I don't know if they don't cook it enough. I also have had the White Hot Dog made of veal- that was forgettable. I'm sticking to the All Beef. Cheese Fries are still awesome however.
