    Anyone remember the Zesty Chicken Bowl? That was the shit. I stopped going to Taco Bell when they got rid of it until my daughter decided that it was the best place ever for a while.

    Idk, the cantina menu is actually pretty good, especially the soft taco.

    Everything else is garbage tho. But it’s garbage I crave

    An actual crunchwrap has never looked like that.

    They need to remake “falling down” for millenials, but it’s at taco bell. Or maybe they don’t, I don’t know…

      1am, taco bell is open. Guy orders a crunch wrap meal, and they have no problem making it. It’s exactly the same as it’s always been and the guy is happy. Cashier rings him up and it’s $20. He snaps.

    The Double Stacked Taco with a fire sauce packet is delicious. There’s nothing wrong with Taco Bell…on occasion…

    There are certain restaurants that everyone says are absolute trash, and yet they stay open.

    My wife and I call them Shitty Tacos, and sometimes we say things like “would you like some Shitty Tacos tonight?”. The answer is often “yes”. Especially if we can’t decide on anything else.

    The spicy potato tacos are my sleeper taco bell hit.

    I did recently have the Baja blast gelato and it was super disappointing - basically a diluted slushie that’s frozen, no gelato/sorbet texture at all.

        The Veggie Craving menu is the only reason I buy Taco Bell. I don’t know of any other fast food with a menu like that.

          Subway’s veggie patties are really good, but not every location has them. They’re really good because they don’t even try to make them taste like meat. I’m not sure if any of their breads are vegan though.

    I don’t know why people feel the need to brag about how they don’t eat popular chain food, or about how it’s bad for you.

    Posting on social media isn’t good for you, but you’d be the first person screaming “b-but the Fediverse and Linux reeee!” if someone were to call you out on it.

    Let people enjoy what they want to enjoy.

    Do all Taco Bell customers hate themselves? I have never enjoyed the food from there and after eating it I have almost always done my best imitation of a geyser. It’s not even good fake texmex.

      I just want to know what you people are doing to your fast food over in America that is giving people diarrhoea so reliably. Every time I hear people from the US talk about places like Taco Bell, someone inevitably mentions its catastrophic effect on their stomach.

      Why is that accepted as normal?!

      We have Taco Bell in the UK too and it’s… fine? I eat out or order food at least once a week and I could count on one hand the number of times I’ve EVER had food poisoning, but apparently over in America it’s basically guaranteed?? What in the absolute fuck is going on over there?

          That’s been my assumption when people talk about stomach pain and diarrhea from Taco Bell, Chipotle, Qdoba, etc. I eat plenty of Mexican food at good and bad places and have never had any issues like that. But I also eat a decent amount of beans normally.

        Taco Bell came to New Zealand just a few years ago and I haven’t tried it because of it’s American reputation, but I’m not really sure why that’s stopped me. If the consequences for eating it are as bad as people say, the whole franchise around NZ would have been shuttered already for food safety violations.

        For what it’s worth, American food protection regulations are pretty flimsy compared to ours. IIRC they have a 10-fold incidence rate of food poisoning compared to us.

    I KNOW it’s not good, I KNOW my shtummy will hurt after, but I don’t remember ever trying taco bell in my life and I am so insanely curious about it. There are none nearby where I live and I don’t drive. It’s been ages that I’ve had this burning curiosity. I already decided that once I get to go I will be ordering a crunchwrap (idk the menu but this is the item I hear the most people talk about).

      I can’t believe this. Are you Amish? Someone needs to make a documentary of taking you on a trip to Taco Bell. I would watch that. Hell Taco Bell would probably fund it for promotional purposes.

      It would be like this generations Supersize Me. They could call it Grande Size Me.

      Send me your address and I’ll throw a bunch of their shit in a ziplock bag and mail it to you. Trust me it doesn’t go bad.

      The crunch wrap is for taco bell fans who got tired of their tacos, don’t start there!

      Get a soft shell, hard shell, and a crunch wrap and eat them in that order. You also have to get a mountain dew Baja blast as thats taco bells own flavor.
