FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[boxer15]

Taco Bell, I could take it or leave it, but I seriously don't get the 'sick' jokes. I've never, ever gotten sick from them. Is that like for real a thing? Or just a social joke that doesn't REALLY happen? #QTNA

Worth noting: I never, ever, EVER get beef. I either sub beans and keep it veggie or I'll get chicken. Is that what it is? Is the beef what gives people bubbleguts?

My reference was to the fact that their ground beef smells like diarrhea. Some people’s stomachs can handle it with no issue, but it doesn’t change the smell.

I live in Texas, so anything Taco Bell is impersonating can be found better and cheaper from any taco truck.

nah be serious, man. you trolling like the dude eating burgers in the dark

I live in California within 5 minutes of 3-4 taquerias.. but Taco Bell still hits when you want it

Why people gotta front

 

[jape]

see
he might be exaggerating on the quality but he gets it.
you can find better cheaper fresher mexican food anywhere down here

Nah man, hold up....what is this in reference to. I think I know where you are going but I need this backstory

its really not a front though. some people don't enjoy taco bell, like myself.
and i doubt your taquerias are as cheap as the mexican food in houston.
is it that hard to believe people don't like mexican fast food?

and expensive rip-off chipotle is completely out of the question

 

[DeadsetAce]

i think there is a misconception about taco bell and people going there cause they're craving actual mexican food. you go to taco bell cause you're craving taco bell. if you're craving actual mexican food, you go to a mexican joint

carnitas, adobada, lengua, etc etc...that's not stuff you get at taco bell. similarly, ground beef in "taco sauce" is not something you get at a taqueria. it's different foods

taquerias down here do all the american tex mex stuff too though.

but either way i get it. people like fast food. not a surprise but you must also get that my reasons are just as valid

 

[boxer15]

Only excuse to go is nostalgia or being high. Nobody is showing up for the “delicious”ground beef.

Unliking it is fine

My issue comes in when someone’s basically posing the position that no one should enjoy it because there’s better options nearby

That’s not the point.

Taco Bell ain't great food, it does the job. No one compares to real Mexican so I don't get why that keeps coming up. My issue is acting like this multi-billion dollar corporation is just going to go "F your stomach lol".

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Taco Bell is the only restaurant I've ever gotten legit food poisoning from.

I was out for like 2 weeks, I haven't touched that **** in over 10 years

I always order chipotle in person after hearing all the horror stories

Edit: that’s me who found the mosquito LOL. Complained to them via their online feedback

 

[Mark Antony]

Mosquito ain’t even crushed or anything, clearly made it there while in the customer’s possession.

Stay in character please.

The faster you live as though this is the only option, the better off you’ll be

 

[cs02132]

When I was like 10-11 I lived about a 30 min walk from a Taco Bell.. I’ll just say I didn’t make it home in time once
I didn’t eat Taco Bell or sour cream for a good 10 years after that
