Do you want a fuzz or a synth wah? Or something totally different? You tell us what you want.

I think what Bongo's trying to get at is... what sound are you looking for from the pedals you list?

+1 to bacon BTW. I had toast this morning and you can't have the same thing twice in a row

Sounds like you need to purchase multiple pedals

I like bacon. To the OP, you're looking at 2 completely different effects. I'm guessing this is just for fun? Seriously, people use fx pedals to achieve certain sounds, specific sounds, so if you don't really need a specific sound, you're just playing around with these things, and maybe you should be focusing on your playing skills instead. You'll go alot farther if you practice scales rather than making odd noises.

+1 to what the other people are getting at. What are you actually after?

But... To play along, Id go for the Muff. I never really liked the sounds the Synth wah had

I'd go with Taco Bell. Plug into a Mexi Melt and you'll get a somewhat cheesy but rather beefy tone. A little spicy too, but I bet it would sound good....

I live in the uk, and taco bell's are really rare over here infact i think ive never saw one on these shores, saw a fair few in my holiday to the states however.
I cant fault them, Rusty hit the nail on the head.
Taco bell is the way ahead.
JELOUS of you americans

I would never had thought of Taco Bell in a million years. This is what makes this site what it is. I am humbled, and in awe of the greatness, and inspiration. (thinkin' real hard about some tacos right about now, too).

I envy you, im pretty sure you could walk out wherever you are look right or left, infront or maybe behind you and see a taco bell.
I have to refer to google images, print one off and eat the paper is probably my best bet, i never new sauce could be so dry.
or shed loads in travel and accomodation fees

Don't envy us. The Bell isn't that good (unless you're really drunk, stoned, or having serious irregularity; then, it performs admirably). But, FWIW, I'd trade half of the Mexican restaurants - the REAL Mexican restaurants - in the US for half of the Indian restaurants in the UK. And there would still be forty in each city in the US.

Just a quick update for everyone - I opted for cereal. The bacon was a good shout, but I just didn't have the time to cook it this morning. I think I made the right choice though, it tasted pretty good, plus it was fortified with vitamins and iron. But the weekend's here, so I'll be definitely getting some bacon action over the next couple of days.

You guys are missing out - NOTHING and I mean NOTHING beats Curry for breakfast.
Strange you say?
Don't knock it 'till you've tried it;
Try it for a week, and you'd scream blue murder to go back to curry.

Go the Muff.
