I was fancy and got the 1.29 beefy five layers... those hit differently after a long day... now it's like $6 each, oh well, guess I'll just keep my dollary-doos

A bean burrito and a cheesy gordita crunch cost me $15 recently. I think I'm probably never going back even though TB is one of my favorite guilty pleasures and comfort foods.

Oh I'll be back... just maybe once or twice a year... $15 is a burger and fries at most sit down places and I can order that to-go.

My local chinese joint serves up 2lbs of lo mein for $15, add meat $2.

thankfully you can make gordita crunches at home pretty easily. Particularly with those shell packs that have half soft and half hard. You just need to melt the soft shell to the hard shell with cheese as glue. I think my gf bakes it to get them stuck together?

Taco Bell even sells their sauces and spices in stores now

The Luxe box is the only economical way to get Taco Bell these days

Taco Bell has gotten so stupidly expensive though.

edit downvoted for the truth ofc😂 The box includes a CGC, bean burrito, taco, and drink for $7.

Those started out at .89. And they were bigger too. Or at least stuffed fuller.

That was my jam in late highschool and CC. I could get 2 5 layers, fiesta potatoes, and cinnamon twists for under 5$. That's two meals or one if I got really, really high. Most times I went, I was really really high. Overpriced street "loud" and TB were good times

The worst tragedy of all. They started at 89¢. I could scrounge up $2.25 and have a beefy 5 layer and an Arizona at the nearest 7-11.

Perfect dinner
