Yeah to be fair - over the last 5+ years since I got out of college, I stopped having fast food. The only exception would be Chik-Fil-A because... you know... waffle fries and delicious chicken. Nom nom.

We don't have a Taco Bell here but if the effect is anything like the "extra hot" peperettes I had a while back. wow. Normally spicy stuff does not set me off but those were something else. Not long after what I can only describe as the Falcon Heavy doing a full static thrust test, I heard sirens, turns out the sewage treatment plant was on fire.

i've never once had any bad effects from taco bell. food is good and cheap. i'll take it over chipotle any day.

Chipotle is nice for the amount of food you get, but I've never been to one that wasn't bland.

Last time I had Taco Bell, about 13+ years ago, nothing would happened. I used to pick up something from TB almost every other day too. Not sure what you guys are eating, haha.
People don't understand how normal it is for bowels to be inconsistently triggered by beef and cheese, regardless of the quality.

Taco Bell is crap food. Not much in terms of spicy. You eat it. You feel bad later and wish you hadn't gone there. There is so much better restaurants. It is fast. I will give them that.

I like it in moderation. Only buy the cheap items though: tacos, bean burritos, etc. Seems like recently the quality of the food had gone downhill. (Yes that is possible). The amount of filling seems to vary a lot from time to time, sometimes good like usual, and sometimes very little filling at all.

i go there for two things - soft taco supremes and mexican pizza. i've tried gorditas and chalupas and what not but to no avail. so i've saved you the trouble of knowing what to try next time you want some basic shit but good fast food

They have authentic Spanish and Mexican women at the drive through with saucy accents...

Plus straws, napkins and the food you actually ordered is not optional.

For some reason now lost to me, in my twenties I used to use Taco Bell as a hangover cure. Just order 5 of whatever after a night of hard drinking (all their food is just recombinations of a few key ingredients) and a large soda pop and I was good to go. Decades later, Taco Bell does nothing for me except to make me question how I could have been that stupid, or was it temporarily bulletproof?
