Sandwiched between a few of the better meals of my year — including possibly the best dinner I’ve ever enjoyed anywhere — was one of my worst in recent memory: a Taco Bell CrunchWrap Supreme, delivered by DoorDash way later than expected, and to the hotel lobby, not our room.

Why my cousin Casey ordered fast-food tacos past midnight just hours after an epic dinner, why I agreed to take part in my first DoorDashing ever, and why I carried forth to gobble up the tepid wrap — completely devoid of its namesake “crunch” by that point — may never be understood.
