So OT it hurts - Taco Bell

Submitted by hennedance on
I just wanted to give you all a warning before going to try the newest product at Taco Bell, the Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito. I am normally pleasantly surprised at the creative and tasty ways Taco Bell's product development team can repackage and recolor the same 5 basic ingredients into different food items. On my lunch break at work, some 30 minutes ago, I decided I would try the new Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito. I was pleasantly surprised...that my colon didn't explode (yet). I have since lost the feeling in my legs and fear my heart will stop soon after eating this culinary abortion. It literally looks and tastes like a twice digested squirrel in a tortilla. I can see how the idea came about...during the semi-monthly cleaning, somebody put all the extra food scraps into a tortilla and dared Miguel to eat it. And he did. And then he liked it and wanted to share it with the world. Awesome. I am greatly looking forward to the Bacon Guacamole Swedish Fish Lettuce Macaroni Chocolate Chip Gyro Orange Glo Combo Meal. Sorry for my digression, I just wanted to spread the word and I'm a little tired of the Groundhog Day-esque recruiting talk today ;)

Taco Bell is a garbage restaurant. Why anyone eats there is beyond me. If you want a good Mexican food, go to Chipotle, Taco Cabana, or if you are in AA, go to BTB.

I don't think anyone in their right mind confuses Taco Bell with "good Mexican" food. I eat TB about once a week and believe me, I know what I am getting myself into when doing so. They just opened a Chipotle here in Grand Rapids earlier this summer (28th St. in Kentwood) and I have to say that I was not impressed. IMO, Moe's is much, much better. Above all else, BTB FTW.

'Jesse's tacos' at the Crazy Cowboy in Jackson is named after the guy who sat down and ate 29 of them in one sitting; and their taco's aren't tiny. If you can eat more, they will name it after you! Edit: damn, I had Taco Bell today too. First time in months.

That thing looks like someone took a shit and wrapped it in a tortilla. How could you possibly think that would be good? Just get the Steak Baja Gordita next time you go. It's the best thing on the menu.

I saw this on the menu and thought, hey, that looks interesting. Fucking terrible excuse for a fast food item. UNACCEPTABLE. In all seriousness, it did blow.

recently, as evident of the fourth meal, taco bell has switched its marketing scheme from attempting to fake mexican food to making food that drunk/high college kids find delicious. every thing on the menu tastes like like wolf gang puck's latest creation afte a few bong rips.

I was literally at taco bell ordering one when you posted. Its not saying much though, I would probably eat a twice digested squirrel if you put bacon and cheese on it.

how could I not join in the fun after all of this mgodiscussion. I think that ultimately the result of this rant will be an increase in mgovisits to taco bell this week.

I posted a similar comment regarding this new creation on facebook. Can it really get any worse than a "bacon, cheesy potato burrito?" Maybe it can----I just saw an advertisement for Long John Silver's new "baja fish taco." What the hell does baja even mean? And btw, Moe's > chipotle or Qdoba. They give you free chips and salsa brah.
