Ew, Taco Bell is so gross. There’s way better food out there.
Edit: last time I went there it literally made me sick. I’m sticking to the good Mexican/tex-mex places.
Edit 2: hail corporate I guess? I genuinely don’t understand why people like Taco Bell. It doesn’t taste good. It makes you sick. Why would you want it when there are better places with the same or similar food out there?
You’re getting downvotes because this is an advertisement and you’re messing up their ad for shit food that gives people health problems.
*sigh* It was gonna happen eventually but it sucks that even Lemmy is getting astroturfed.
it’s not astroturfing. it’s an ad, but it’s not astroturfing. these are real lemmings who genuinely enjoy sucking corporate dick for free. so pathetic.
Whyyyyyy? Why would you want food that literally makes you sick? There are way better options that taste better and won’t make you sick.
You might just have a weak stomach.
It’s not gourmet or anything but if it’s consistently making you sick I’d get it checked out.
If Taco Bell makes you sick then I have some news for you: You are weak, your bloodline is weak, and you will be forgotten in the pages of history.
If Taco Bell doesn’t make you sick, I have news for you. You’re accustomed to eating garbage. Your arteries are getting clogged, and you’ll start losing feeling in your extremities and feel embarrassed about your body a couple years before the garbage you shove into your stomach for a brief hit of dopamine ends your life early, like it does for hundreds of thousands of other people every year.
Just because it makes you sick doesn’t mean it makes everyone sick and we’re all just “blind to it” or something
Most people don’t eat Taco Bell for Mexican or TexMex food, we eat Taco Bell for Taco Bell food
Just because people have a preference for a bog Fast food chain doesn’t automatically make it “Hail Corporate” either
Any time I go to Taco Bell I know it’s gonna make me sick. You gotta plan for it and know what you’re getting into
People say this all the time, but I’ve literally never had that happen from eating Taco Bell. Is it some sort of food sensitivity issue?
I will say that I have had an angry stomach from eating McDonald’s or Chick Fil A now and then, but never Taco Bell. I don’t even really like Taco Bell all that much but it doesn’t cause any issues.
I’m in a rough place right now, and Taco Bell is part of my sadness/depression meter. I’m only at a 1 TB in January, and it feels good to say that.
Nice ad placement Lemmy!
We’ve gentrified cheap Mexican food and food trucks in general now.
It wasn’t even 10 years ago that you could get a pretty hearty meal at a taco stand for like 8 bucks. Now it’s at least double that and around me. It’s oftentimes triple. There’s no case to be made that the inputs for a taco have risen that dramatically in price. Businesses are doing what businesses do so I’ve moved on to Vietnamese food which is still pretty cheap around me.
I know right? Taco Bell has always been cheap garbage to shove in your face when you’re having a depression day.
Now it’s just garbage.
Really? Last I went it was around 5 USD for a crunchwrap and the cheese burrito nonsense was less than 2 USD a piece. 28 USD would be an absolutely obscene amount of food even by American standards
Edit since people think I’m bullshitting: these pictures were taken at a Taco Bell in Portland, Oregon, USA today, 31st January 2024:
Lol, maybe if only $28 worth of taco bell was worth my time. It takes damn near $5o for 2-3 people worth of trash food.
$28 is a fucking joke, when you’re hungry enough to even consider ordering it
That’s why you order 3 rice and bean burritos. It comes out to like $3.24.
They’re not that great but enough fire sauce fixes anything
Do you have a time machine? They are $2.49 each now, or $1.89 if you’re lucky. And smaller than before so you need two of them to equal an old one.

Yeah I see several ads every time I get on now. Was really hoping to leave that garbage behind on Reddit.
that’s what I gave up on trying to explain to r/hailcorporate: you don’t have to get paid to be an advertiser. these empty souls will do it for free, because they’ve already fused their identity with their fav corporations
and calling the shit out and reposting it is just another layer of advertising, too, so r/HC got the unsub too
I just mobile order and pay like $6 for a crunch wrap supreme, burrito, and a side with a drink. Id never pay more than $15 at tacobell lol
The true irony in all this is Taco Bell’s headquarters is in Southern California (as is Del Taco) where REAL Mexican food dominates them both.
California Burritos, Baja Tacos and Carne Asada Fries any day, all day.
Oh man, all those people going to Taco Bell and thinking they’re in for a real authentic Sonoran experience are really missing out, I guess.
Be surprised how many people think Taco Bell is Mexican, but the point I was making is that: Tijuana, MX. is twice as close to Taco Bell HQ than it is to San Francisco. There’s traditional Mexican food throughout Southern California and more frequent than any other fast food chain, including Starbucks and McDs. You’d think Taco Bell would move their HQ lol.
Yeah it’s actually funny, I ride past taco bell HQ regularly. It’s this aggressively bland concrete block in Irvine… kinda like their food.
I eat it now and again, using the veggie mode on the order screen nowadays. But the mom & pop food trucks give you way more for way less.
You deserve it.
Pushed to work a job you don’t enjoy. It gives you money, and emptiness. You fill the emptiness with the money. Now you need money, and are still empty.
