Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

I wont lie, I sometimes go to Taco Johns just for the potato oles (what they call tater tot crowns).
I've never had Taco John's, but the name's giving me flashbacks to Taco Maker, which was in the food court of the Cape Cod Mall when I was a kid in the 1980s. There's something delightfully off-brand and generic about the names. (A quick Google search says that Taco Maker had locations in Russia, India, and Venezuela in addition to Rhode Island, Florida, and Puerto Rico. I love the idea of Muscovites chowing down on Taco Maker burritos. I have fond memories of the food, but it was idiosyncratic dining. Not great, not terrible, kind of weird.)

The Takeout is 50% great, 50% hot garbage. Can anyone vouch for any of the entries on this list?
This, from the New Hampshire entry, makes me raise an eyebrow: "Poutine is popular in the Northeastern states..." I have no strong opinions on poutine, but I'm not sure that I'd call it popular in New England unless things have really changed in four years.

The Takeout feels like it has serious food writers hanging on from a previous ownership era and also people who came in when they were hiring random folks off the street for low pay. The story of a lot of media sites nowadays, unfortunately.
