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 only thing I have been getting at Taco Bell since the discontinuation of the grilled stuft burrito is a steak power bowl. It’s just a bowl of all the ingredients they have, sans a tortilla-based wrapping or shell. I then get some fresh made tortilla chips from a Mexican grocery store nearby and eat it like a taco salad.
It’ll come back, has before, till then I’ve gone to the steak grilled cheese burrito
Prices are nuts though. I’m on the road a lot so I still get it especially if I roll into town extra late. But 20 years ago I could get a grilled stuffed burrito for like $2.50 and that was a whole meal. Maybe even the only thing I ate all day back in those poverty days. Now I spend at least 20 bucks for the same amount of food. And I could go to a nice Mexican American sit down place and get the same amount of much better food for about $15.
Fast food places in general have gouged consumers for multiple times the rate of inflation the last few years. Taco Bell has beaten everyone else by a fair amount in being evil though :(
I do the same thing with chipotle.
Taco Bell is my depression meter. Not a joke. 1x or less a month, I’m ok, 2x/month, prolly fine, just hungry. If I get to 1- 2x per week I tell my friends in hopes they can help me.
The sausage breakfast crunch wrap fucking slaps.
It is great, but I prefer it with steak. And ALWAYS extra creamy jalapeño sauce!
The sauce is 10/10
Get that fake ass crunchwrap out of here before NY sues your ass
That’s White Castle for me.
People who like White Castle are a whole other breed
White Castle sliders at 2 am after drinking… I recommend.
Is this a Game Grumps quote?
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…
An actual crunchwrap has never looked like that.
Yum! Pile of sadness! You know what youre getting from Taco Bell.
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.
They’d remake it with Kevin Hart and make him the good guy, completely missing the point
Urgh, just like Old Boy.
Idk, the cantina menu is actually pretty good, especially the soft taco.
Everything else is garbage tho. But it’s garbage I crave
Even the spicy cheesy potato thing? Thst for me is about the last reason I’ll go.
The Double Stacked Taco with a fire sauce packet is delicious. There’s nothing wrong with Taco Bell…on occasion…
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.
I get the crunch wrap with potatoes instead of beef
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).
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.
Oh wow thanks for the guidebook! I’ll try to remember that. And the other suggestions I’ve recieved.
Not sure how I’ll eat all of it 😅
If you are pretty hungry thats all doable for sure! For like an average size meal I’d do one crunchwrap or three tacos.
They let you add on pretty much whatever too so I just pick the cheapest tacos and burritos and make them supreme myself. I get a bean and rice burrito, fresco (replaces dairy and meat with pico de gallo), add fries/potatoes inside, add jalapeños, and lettuce. Comes up to like 3.50 or 4.00 for it.
All the other fast food places prices around me make taco bell look like a fantastic deal, I’ll say that.
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.
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.
Imagine something that looks and tastes like dogfood but still somehow releases the happy chemicals when you eat it
You also gotta try one of their best menu items, the cheesy gordita crunch.
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.
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?
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.
It’s bullshit. Anyone getting diarrhea from Taco Bell has a pre-existing condition.
Americans never eat fiber, having one bean is enough to put them down for hours.
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.
Still holding out hope for the return of the chili cheese burrito.
The CCB is a franchisee optional item, they vary wildly in availability as a result.
For example, they’ve been available in every Colorado location I’ve been to
I am glad it exists in some realms, but remain disappointed as it is not available to me.
Have you tried the CCB locator?
The item you seek could be closer than you think
Wow only three in California. Never had one I don’t think.
I do miss the encharito. Which went away and came back and went away and came back again. Every time it comes back it is shittier than it was before :( But I miss it. Is there a map of where those are available?
No chillitos in all of New England either, gotta go to NYC for the closest, then Ohio or NC.
I was in Cadillac MI last summer, regrettably ate at a Taco Bell, and didn’t even know I could have gotten one! It was the first run to the border I’d made in years too!
Sat up all night in a wind storm with cramps afterwards. 0/10
Damn, USA only
Despair.
Edit: I do appreciate the attempt.
Lol I tried, hopefully you’ll find your prize one day fellow CCB fan 🫡
At least the link is here for wayward chili cheese burrito fans
It true, but I gotta make it steak
black bean is honestly really good (and doesn’t cost extra)
Black bean might be my favorite and I’m not even vegetarian
