Title: Taco Bell is the best Mexican restaurant in America
Post by: just Warren on November 27, 2018, 11:20:20 PM

From way back in 2014 comes an article that needs to be read all the way to the end. (https://www.eater.com/2014/11/5/7155501/life-in-chains-kfc-taco-bell)

A long time ago, I spent two weeks in Oakland, California, doing seismic retrofits on a pair of houses owned by my then lady friend. I didn't know my way around, so I didn't do much driving. I also didn't have any idea where I could find a supermarket. There was a Taco Bell within easy walking distance, so I became a regular at Taco Bell. It was ... okay.

That's depressing, disgusting, horrifying, and sad all at the same time...

Long way to get to the "moral of the story" but it was a bit heart warming. If Taco Hell didn't always give me the shits these days, I might like the story better. I actually love their Caramel Apple Empanadas and the Burrito Supreme!
