TB tacos have given me shits before, but it usually doesn't do anything to me. I don't prefer the tacos, though.

I haven't eaten there much since they got rid of the Chicken Fiesta Burrito.

and if you lived your whole life eating terrible tasting healthy crap food you must not care about living a real life
 
Why does every Taco Bell thread end up with everyone saying how shitty it is?

The thread could be "Taco Bell workers save schoolbus of children from terrorist takeover" and everyone would come in and be like "I ate Taco Bell for lunch yesterday and shat my pants, fuck Taco Bell!" or "Taco Bell sucks! their food tastes like 3 day old vomit!"

Really the food like product they produce isn't meant for human consumption. It started out as a big joke that's kinda gotten out of hand.

Double Cheesy Beef Burrito add Lava sauce is WIN, the Volcano Taco & Volcano Nachos are also good. Taco Bell has some good items on the menu. Eaten there myself hundreds of times in my life and never got sick, or even the shits once. Some of y'all have crazy weak internal systems and need to go see a doctor.

Yeah it's win if you like eating garbage.

Try harder at understanding nutrition next time.
 
People who say Taco Bell makes them instantly have to shit or throw up are either lying for absolutely no reason other than to "fit in," or they have the weakest stomachs on the planet.

Never had ANY issue with Taco Bell. I've probably eaten there a total of 100 times in my life.

Either stop being a sheep, or stop being a pussy.

What these people are experiencing is a psychosomatic response to the soul killing effects of Taco Bell product consumption.

They aren't physically ill, but the body has no other way to cope with such an alien presence other than to shit itself and hope for the best. Now if your soul is dead or otherwise compromised then you may not experience such side effects.

Wrong. TB's tacos in particular go right, through me and I'm usually in pain when I pull into my driveway... same as Jack in the Box "dog food meat" tacos and Chipotle Mexican Grill fajita burritos (chicken or steak). It's just like South Park implied regarding Chipotle: I'm not a pussy, so I eat it anyway.

Chipotle in Atlanta was about a half-hour's drive from home but I would eat it in the car and I'd find completely undigested veggies in the toilet bowl. I think something in the salsa just forces my body to expell it and I'm clearly not the only one.

It's not physically possible for food to go "right through" you. So, keep lying to yourself.

And based on your experiences, why in the hell are you eating all that stuff if it makes you feel like dying?

This actually makes sense.

TB food doesn't affect me b/c I sold my soul for a tootsie pop back in the summer of '86.

Obviously, you are wrong. My sister has IBS and very often finds that she has passed her medication without even digesting the capsule. Obviously, this triggers a similar expulsion. If the only corn and peppers I've eaten in the last several days and several bowel movements was in the Chipotle burrito I ate on the way home and yet there is corn and peppers in my liquid stool, the mystery is solved.

Also, I already said that I'm not a pussy and that's why I eat it anyway. "Painful" != "feels like I'm going to die." I'm not the only one. Like I said: watch the South Park episode. They don't puss out and they keep eating it. The only reason why Kyle keeps asking "why?" is because he hadn't tried it. 🙂

When I said I didn't want the "Grande Meal", the dumbass behind the counter and the assistant manager working couldn't understand why. They said "but you'll save money". It took me over two minutes to explain to them that $9.90 is less than $10.70 (the price of the Grande Meal). In the end, they capitulated because there was a line behind me, but they still couldn't understand why I didn't want the Grande Meal.

The Grande Meal comes with a drink. The signs say this in tiny writing at the bottom of the sign and don't show the drink in the picture, so it isn't completely obvious, but it is included.

What is wrong with you people that you cannot eat taco bell? Thousands if not a few million people eat it everyday. Sure, the first time you eat it, your insides hurt, but then eventually that subsides. Whatever died was probably the bad part of you anyway.

I agree with both of the above. I've yet to encounter anyone IRL that complains about food as much as the average person on ATOT does.

Is Taco Bell the best and greatest? Hell no, but it's not a bad meal for the price. I mean, we are talking about fast food after all. None of it's really good for you, and none of it would stand out a high class restaurant (obviously), but it is what it is.
 
To all of you who vomit/crap out taco bell instantly you can turn in your man card here --->

Chili Cheese Burrito + Volcano taco ftw.

Most Taco Bells do not have the Chili Cheese Burrito. There was even a website called www.savethechilicheeseburrito.org or something about 10 years ago. You aren't eating the same thing as us. If you are eating Chili Cheese Burritos and Mexi-Fries (another product offered only to a very limited region), you haven't earned your man card.

And I firmly hold my man card because I continue eating it even if it cramps up my insides and causes pain on the ride home until I get to the bathroom. It's cheap and it tastes good.

Wow I feel sorry for you people unable to eat the goodness that is the Chilli Cheese Burrito! Midwest FTW I guess. The only place I've ever been unable to get one is a combo TacoBell/KFC.

(no mexi-fries here unfortunately)
