Seriously, When's the Last Time You Had Taco Bell?

Our kid's parents told us that on their way home from a house party the other night when they were a little drunk, they pulled into a Taco Bell. They said they did this about once every two months, but mostly after they had been drinking (which, I guess, is somewhat excusable). They're about 38 years old.

It got me thinking: I don't think I've had Taco Bell in 11 years (the last time I remember was at a Taco Bell in Milford, MI when my niece was born).

Do non-high school/college people actually go to Taco Bell? If so, how often? I'm beginning to think that I'm the outlier.

I can't remember the last time, probably 10+ years. Why is TB any different than any other fast food place? I mean, in that time, I've had many other fast food meals.

To my miniscule brain, I always perceived it as a step down (grade F meat) from other fast-food places.

I was shocked to read that a Chipotle steak burrito has more fat and sodium than a Big Mac.

Im not surprised. Also, I believe "back in the day" chipotle had a food calculator on their website that provided all the caloric info for the meal you would chose to order.

Occasional drunk food. Regret it every time.

Never been

2 double decker taco's no lettuce
2 soft shell tacos no lettuce
Chili Cheese Burrito
Nacho Bell Grande

That was my goto back when i could eat like that. Now Ill just go with the 4 taco's. or substitute a soft shell with a chili cheese burrito. Also, always have eat the double deckers first so as to avoid the softening of the hard shell layer

I hate lettuce too

Strat · Post by **Strat** » Tue February 17, 2015 9:19 pm

I love lettuce. It just doesnt belong in a shitty taco

Strat · Post by **Strat** » Tue February 17, 2015 9:19 pm

Well, I love lettuce when it is mixed with spinach, arugula and kale.

It might be, the meals are really cheap from what I remember. I agree that it definitely targets that high school/college aged demographic.

Pizza was almost always my go to food option after a heavy night of drinking.

Within the last month or two. I'll go T Bell before McD or BK or the like.

Strat · Post by **Strat** » Tue February 17, 2015 9:22 pm

For whatever reason I do not feel as shitty after eating taco bell as I do after McD's or BK or any other. I rarely eat that shit but taco bell, if not over done, has less of an impact on me.

Same here.

And that Fire sauce?! Oo-wee!

The second lowest point in my life was when I ordered a couple of Doritos locos tacos. The lowest point was when I realized they were quite tasty.
