>From just a quick skim over, these two examples look contradictory:

  it "should throw an error if asked to display a menu that does not exist" 
    @menu.display_menu(@messenger).should == "#{@menu.txtfile} does not exist!"
  end

  #Here's my problem child
  it "should load the contents of the text file into the action list" do
    @menu.action_list.empty?.should == false
    @menu.display_menu(@messenger)
  end

Do you need two separate contexts, one with `Menu.new("Title_test_real.txt")`?

BTW… s/\t/  /g ;) (Conventional Ruby indents are 2 spaces, tabs make it harder 
to read for people used to that)

HTH, if not, maybe someone else can see the bug.
