I’ve moved back to my country of birth and Taco Bell seems to be a thing here now.

I’ve tried the quesadillas and the crunch supreme and it’s been… life changing.

What else should I be trying?

    Try obtaining a Time Machine so that you can experience the menu from when it was good.

    The Grilled Stuft Burrito, Grilled Stuft Nacho, the volcano burrito and lava sauce, the 1/2 lb cheesy potato burrito, the enchirito, the loaded grillers, the double layer taco, the chilito.

    So many good menu items lost to time

    If you eat meat, the breakfast crunch wrap supreme is made my angels.

    If Taco Bell ever releases a Breakfast crunch wrap supreme with impossible sausage, I will eat it 5 days a week and balloon to 400 pounds.

    when they are available, the nacho fries are incredible also.

      Mmm MSG fries

      (Don’t get me wrong I like them too but let’s be honest here, they almost have as much MSG as KFC fries)

          Nothing in the right quantity, I use it in my own cooking when I need more umami in a dish.

          There are old studies out there that said it was a problem ingredient (hence “no MSG” labels all over different foods), but those have been largely debunked due to racial bias.

          In excess, the MSG flavor tends to linger, which can be annoying sometimes.

      If you’re still eating from there, then it shouldn’t be long now.

      I joke, but not really. You have to ask yourself, how is it possible that a little chicken, lettuce tomatoes with some sauce on a “tortillas” can make so many people sick.

        Huh? Poultry is in the news for illness reasons all the time, lettuce comes up often too. Not saying it isn’t for scummy corner cutting reasons, but don’t act like taco bell is somehow the first chain to give someone food poisoning.

          It’s one of the only chains with that reputation. It’s kinda of weird to brag about liking it so much but hey, you do you.

    Try everything. Why the hell not? Cheesy Gordita Crunch, Crunchwrap, and Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrrito are the best. Baja Blast is the real deal.

    Also, here comes the baby boomer diarrhea jokes. Every time Taco Bell is mentioned, it’s the same joke. I don’t even think it’s NOT that funny, but it’s just the same joke over and over.

      Those grilled cheese burritos slap. I remember when I first got one, it was larger than I expected but it was so good. Can’t go wrong with steak.

    Supreme beef chalupas.

    My saying, as it relates to Taco Bell, is: “It’s shit, but it’s good shit.”
