Taco Bell

[dtbog]

I think Taco Bell is divinely inspired. Some of my friends think it's total crap.

I'm not much of a fast food person, but if I'm going through any drive-thru, it'd better be this one. A pretty damn decent taco for $1? come on people!

and they have Fire sauce!

this thread is for people singing the praises of Taco Bell. tell a good Taco Bell story or tell me which kinds of fried tortilla + beef + cheese combos you order the most.

[durron597]

I really like that new crunchwrap supreme.

And the Beef & Potato burrito WITHOUT RED SAUCE is really good.

In fact its the only one I find worthy of eating at.

Yeah its not offered everywhere, there were two taco bells I knew of in Manhattan, one had it , the other didn't. Thing is, they have the ability to make it at whim, so if your local taco bell dude is feeling industrious he can make it for you.

[spydog]

Since I move to Ireland a year ago, Taco Bell would be on my top 20 list of things I miss about the US. I've never even seen a burrito on any menu in any restaurant over here (i'm on the rural west coast). However, they just put in a KFC and Pizza Hut in the last month. Isn't Taco Bell part of YUM's holy trinity?

BTW, ESPN is tops on that list by a wide margin. Oh, and broadband.

They recently put it back on the menu. However, when it wasn't on the menu, I would ask for it anyway and they always knew what I was talking about. On the menu or not, ask for it the next time you go.

I lived off the stuff for a couple years in school too, then didn't eat it for a couple more years. I definitely enjoy it again now, not as often, but I don't eat much fast food, so Taco Bell is still one of my most frequent stops.

I dont eat fast food hardly ever, but when I Do, its taco bell. There is just soooo much more variety than your typical menu of "hamburger, fries, soda".

I lived on this [censored] in college. My typical order was bean burrito with no onions, 2 soft tacos, a crunchy taco, nachos supreme with no sour cream. With student discount it came out to less than $5. No where else can you get that much foor for under $5

It seems to me that students, stoners, and the inherent overlap therein form the entire Taco Bell demographic. What kind of discount was it?

For some, indirectly.

ONE of the reasons for someone to be poor is that they are lazy. There are a multiude of other reasons which are valid and free of fault.

For that lazy demographic, it's going to be much more appealing to spend $5 on a meal at Taco Bell than it is to buy $4 worth of food at a grocery store with which to make meals. Believe me, you can get vegetables, meat, and bread for $20 that will last you for quite a few sandwiches.

Those people also wouldn't ever exercise, always take the elevator, etc. Therefore, they are fat.

Please don't go off on a flame-trail here with my insinuation about the poor. You know I'm talking about one small subset... but for that subset, I think laziness is more the issue than cheap food at TB.

[Suited Deuce]

2 Gorditas/Hard Taco Combo + Wild Cherry Pepsi = Orgasmatron

Back in HS, we used to have hard taco eating contests at the Bell; 14 was my personal best at the time. Seems low. I could probably shatter that number now.

I think you're putting the cart before the horse. Clearly when Taco Bell is readily available at such low prices, there's simply no impetus not to be lazy? Why be ambitious when you can eat like a king on $3 a day? /images/graemlins/grin.gif

i think a lot of the hate stems from looking at the people who work there. they have to be at the bottom of the education, hygiene, and social ladder. regardless, taco bell food is delicious, my favorite hits are the cgc, grilled stuft steak burrrrito, and the 99c half pound bean and cheese burrrrito

My Taco Bell didn't have a cheezy gordita crunch, but I just stopped by today and they've added it back.

For lunch I had three of them, from the drivethrough, and they stiffed me on the Fire sauce. So instead I just covered it in Tabasco.

Good.

Unless you have never made a taco in your life it is not hard to make one that is better than taco bell. But making a mexican pizza or baja chalupa is too much work for me so i do eat there every few weeks. When i make them my enchiladas/fajitas/taco/burritos are definitely 100x better than TB.

[mlh2e]

Best value -- Double Decker Tacos. You need to eat them quick, though, or else the inner crunchy taco gets soggy.

The Chipotle chicken burrito was awesome, but they took it away. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

I used to work across the street from a taco bell. Someone at the drive-thru flicked a cigarette into the mulch and I watched as my beloved eatery burned to the ground.

[Ulysses]

Taco Bell is simultaneously complete crap and awesome. However, you kids all missed the glory days of Taco Bell. None of this newfangled gimmicky stuff compares to the delight that was Cinnamon Crispas and the pure joy that was the Cheesarito. The Cheesarito only survived on the menu for a short period, but for a long time, diehard Taco Bell employees would still hook you up with them. I imagine now you'd just get a blank stare if you asked for one, though.

Let me try out a theory based on this post. I think everyone somewhat outgrows Tbell eventually because their own personal Tbell "glory days" have passed them by. For me, Taco Bell began to peak around the time of the introduction of the Chalupa, crested with that 2-lb., 1320-calorie wet dream known as the Mucho Grande Nachos, and started down the backside with the Grilled Stuft. Most of the most recent new menu items have been shite compared to what I "grew up on". For example, this new hexagonal tortilla-wrapped-around-a-tostada thing isn't fooling me at all. It's nothing special--there's no new ingredients or even evolution in terms of combining different ingredients. In fact it has seroius structural problems in that it's difficult to get the hot sauce inside of it without tearing it apart.

Reading ElD's post got me thinking that maybe everyone enjoys the first, or near-first TBell they've ever had the best, and over time as the menu changes TBell gradually falls out of favor (but never completely).

I imagine I'm about 7-8 years younger than ElD. I bet many folks 7-8 years younger than me (starting college) think this hexagonal concoction is god's gift to fast food.


Still, TBell in its prime set the bar way to high to ever be considered less than the best fast food restaurant by me.

[jakethebake]

The Taco Bells in St. Louis used to run all kinds of sports team specials. $.10 off for every touchdown the Rams scored that week...stuff like that. One week, oh man, they were like $.09 tacos. It ruled.

The Cheesy Gordita Crunch is one of the best newer-style items. It's not on the menu most of the time, but the employees will still make it.

Taco Bell is simultaneously complete crap and awesome. However, you kids all missed the glory days of Taco Bell. None of this newfangled gimmicky stuff compares to the delight that was Cinnamon Crispas and the pure joy that was the Cheesarito. The Cheesarito only survived on the menu for a short period, but for a long time, diehard Taco Bell employees would still hook you up with them. I imagine now you'd just get a blank stare if you asked for one, though.

[/ QUOTE ]

Let me try out a theory based on this post. I think everyone somewhat outgrows Tbell eventually because their own personal Tbell "glory days" have passed them by. For me, Taco Bell began to peak around the time of the introduction of the Chalupa, crested with that 2-lb., 1320-calorie wet dream known as the Mucho Grande Nachos, and started down the backside with the Grilled Stuft. Most of the most recent new menu items have been shite compared to what I "grew up on". For example, this new hexagonal tortilla-wrapped-around-a-tostada thing isn't fooling me at all. It's nothing special--there's no new ingredients or even evolution in terms of combining different ingredients. In fact it has seroius structural problems in that it's difficult to get the hot sauce inside of it without tearing it apart.

Reading ElD's post got me thinking that maybe everyone enjoys the first, or near-first TBell they've ever had the best, and over time as the menu changes TBell gradually falls out of favor (but never completely).

I imagine I'm about 7-8 years younger than ElD. I bet many folks 7-8 years younger than me (starting college) think this hexagonal concoction is god's gift to fast food.


Still, TBell in its prime set the bar way to high to ever be considered less than the best fast food restaurant by me.

[/ QUOTE ]

First off, Taco Bell is not even in the same league as Chick-Fil-A, the best fast food place.

But back to the main point. While your reasoning seems sound, it's simply wrong. I am perfectly able to objectively compare food quality then and now. The fact of the matter is that due to increased pressure on profit margins, efficiency, etc. in the fast food industry, the food has just plain continued to go downhill at Taco Bell. At the most fundamental level, the quality of the cheese is so far below what it once was that there's really no comparison when it comes to the food.

Here's why Taco Bell is so much worse than it used to be:

Taco Bell Executive 1: Man, this thinly shredded real cheese is delicious.
TBE 2: It's damn expensive, though.
TBE 1: Makes tasty simple Mexican fast-food, though!
TBE 2: Check out this crap-ass low grade cheese w/ all sorts of fillers and byproducts.
TBE 1: Wow, tastes like crap!
TBE 2: Hmmm, you're right. What else is cheap?
TBE 1: Hmmm, tortilas, they are almost free.
TBE 2: OK, how about this, we use the crap cheese, then wrap the stuff in an extra tortilla and fry it up!
TBE 1: Are kids stupid enough to go for that?
TBE 2: Yes, I think they are.
TBE 1: OK, let's increase the prices!
TBE 2: YES!
TBE 1: YES!
TBE 2: YES! HAHHAHAHAHA!
TBE 1: HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!

Chick-fil-A is damn tasty when it comes to chicken sandwiches, chicken nuggets, and waffle-fries, but their menu doesn't offer me enough variety to even be considered in the same class as TBell.

In fact, I don't see how you can proclaim Chik-fil-A the best fast food restaurant when they don't even have an undeniable best-in-class with their most popular menu item, which IMO is a toss-up, possibly narrow edge to spick chicken fillet...

If you go, the only correct play is a Chick-fil-a chicken sandwich supreme with cheese.

Otherwise you get a chicken breast on a bun and nothing else.

The chicken sandwich is a breaded chicken breast (there is a touch of powdered sugar in their breading) fried in peanut oil on a bun with a single pickle slice. The nuggets and chicken strips are also similarly prepared, and are delicious, IMO. I am lucky enough to live near a Chick-Fil-A in NJ.

I do not know the difference. Please enlighten me.

[/ QUOTE ]
Crispas were made of a similar material (fried, crispy, pastry-ish, perhaps more flaky than twists IIRC), but instead of being in a twist, they were in large triangluar shapes. The shape didn't hold the sugar and cinnamon very well, so there would be alot of delicious powder at the bottom of the crispas bag.

I haven't heard anyone mention the Meximelt. I thought this was one of their most yummy items, but rarely ordered it because it was less than half the size of similarly-costed items. Most TBs no longer carry it.

For a breif amount of time in the Mountan View area of California there was a "specialty" Taco Bell. It was called something like "Taco Bell Extra", except the word wasn't extra; I've forgotten the subtitle. Anyway, it had an expanded menu, and a small salsa station (similar to what El Polla Loco has). It's menu included an awesome chicken quesadilla, far and away superior to the quesadillas the TBs currently carry. Easily my favorite Taco Bell item, if it can be included. When they convereted to a regualr Taco Bell, I cried and cried, as if I had lost my favorite pair of jeans.

For regular TB items there's too many to pick a favorite. Off the top of my head I would happily eat any of Baja Beef Chalupa, Meximelts, Mexican Pizza, Double Decker, Tostadas, Cheese Quesadilla, Crunchwrap Supreme. This thread has made me very hungry, I think I will go to Taco Bell.

Yes, I was going to post a 'be advised' about the closed on Sunday part. Even mall locations. CfA is based in the ATL and run by hardcore Christians. If religious politics has any weight in your choice of fast food, that's a nugget for you.

And, the reason the main axe sandwich is only a chicken breast with a pickle and butter is because the breast is so damn good. I used to toss the sorry-ass pickle. Chik-fil-a is about to open a NorCal location near me. My wife laughs at my eagerness to partake.
