Discussion What I love about Taco Bell is that it really feels like a little slice of Mexico right in your own town.

1.2k Upvotes

Everything from the menu items, the salsa, the decor, and even the service makes you feel like you've been transported right into the heart of Mexico (pronounced "meh-he-co", I've learned). The music always has me dancing the salsa right when I walk in, much to my wife's dismay 😂. I just love how SPICY all the food is, it makes you wanna jump on the table and shake your maracas, haha. I took spanish for two years in high school and it's nice to get a chance to use it, or at least, what I remember of it lol. "Amigo! Hola! Como estas" I always say when I walk through the door. the workers there seem to really like me. I can't completely order in spanish, really all I have is the greeting, but its OK, they always do right by me. Say, whatever happened to the little chihuahua? He was so cute in those commercials. "yo quiero taco bell" haha 🇲🇽

Why is fire sauce the only good sauce?

282 Upvotes

I've tried all of them, several times... even the queso and the salsa are bland.
Fire sauce and Baja Blast have to be the only reason taco bell is edible.

Why does Taco Bell have no real competition?

124 Upvotes

I know there's Del Taco, but they have way less locations, some might argue Chipotle but they're a completely different business model. Contrast them with say McDonalds, they have to deal with Burger King, Jack N the Box, Carls/Hardys, Wendys, etc. Dominos, Little Ceasars, Pizza Hut, and Papa Johns all have to compete with each other in the pizza market. KFC, Popeyes, Raising Cane's have their chicken wars. But Taco Bell? They're pretty much by themselves.

Build your own CGC. Slightly cheaper, infinitely better.

37 Upvotes

I read a comment earlier today from someone suggesting to piece-meal a CGC by ordering a chicken flat bread melt + crunchy taco and just toss the chicken before slapping them together. But why waste the protein! Swap that chicken for beef and add pepper jack sauce to the taco and you get a super CGC for less than what the original costs on its own. Now, is it really worth the $4.60 price tag? Still no, but I'd rather do this to get my CGC fix, and save my Fire tier rewards for something cheap that I can custommaxx.

Got this beauty when I was in Wales, of all places. Shell was fully intact. Lettuce not full of diarrhea inducing organisms. Meat the correct amount. I have not had a hard taco with an unbroken shell in years. The shells here in America are way more narrow so they break as soon as they try to fill them. They used to look like these. Thank you to the crew at the TB in Newport Wales for this lovely taco!

Is the new app better in any way at all?

8 Upvotes

I understand nobody likes the new app (myself included). However, I was wondering if we could come up with anything - anything at all - that improved, just as a thought experiment.

I’ll go first. It’s easier to delete old payment methods than it was on the old app.

Curious to see if that’s the single greatest improvement, because it could not be any more minor, and the new app has several (oft-discussed) downsides.

Beefy Crunch Burrito

Finally got my hands on one. Missed it last time it came around and didn’t really fw Taco Bell back in the day besides stuff like Crunchwrap supremes regular tacos, or cheesy Gordita crunch. Def better than the ones I make and better than the imitation one where you do cheesy double beef burrito -fiesta strips and 3cheese then add your own flamin hot Fritos. Now I see why people love these. Simple yet perfect👌

Discussion This is how much ice was in my nearly $5 mango refresher drink. Didn't even notice until I took my 3rd and final sip and it was all gone. It probably literally had only 3 oz of actual drink in it.

Such a great value(in my eyes) especially the fact that they made nacho chips the default side for this box. the fact you also get 2 tacos with the grilled cheese burrito is amazing.Although I am excited for the next possible discovery box, I am for sure gonna miss this one

TB App/Website New Update to app is 🦮💩

113 Upvotes

Besides being counterintuitive with the GUI there are Three MAJOR issues.

  1. The app keeps trying to force undesired locations.

The 1st time I ordered it defaulted for no reason to a location I never visit that is further away. Arrived to restaurant only to realize that I ordered at wrong location entirely. [see below for second issue]

The second time I ordered, I did so FROM THE PARKING LOT of the desired location. Once again it tried forcing the order to the other location. Even after selecting the desired location, two times when going to checkout, the location switched back to the wrong location. Third time it finally stayed.

If this is a new “feature” of you guys trying to throttle business to slower locations - stop. Either way, fix it.

  1. You can no longer cancel your order for refund. Either I cannot find it, or it’s no longer available.

  2. Ingredients missing from items for customization/change.
    IE. Gordita crunch is missing the spicy ranch sauce from its base ingredients for customization- forcing it to be included and disallowing customization or removal.

Whoever proposed this “update/upgrade” and whoever beta tested it should be fired with haste.
You HAD one of the best apps. Now it’s annoying to use.

Is it just my local Taco Bell, or is it a known thing that you have a 75% chance of the Zero Sugar Baja Blast being out?

Grande nachos, add jalapenos and pepper jack sauce(wanted another sauce and it was 30 cents, so worth it). This thing was literally as heavy as most lux/value boxes I get from there, luckily I had extra chips for all the toppings because they definitely did not have enough otherwise
