I just discovered that Bell is the last name of the founder of Taco Bell, Glen Bell. He named it after himself. Mind blown.

One of the greatest Mexican Americans.

I googled "Taco Bell" to find the wiki article and confirm this and got this instead

Google overlords are not fucking around. Also, yes it is helpful. Thank you, Google.

Yes! Use the app, you can switch up quite a bit and don't have to deal with the shame of saying ridiculous substitutions out loud!

Y'all making me want to pick up taco bell on the way home.

You make me wanna leave the one I'm with
And start a new relationship with food
This is what you do
I think about beans and all the things go along with them
Make me
They make me

I wonder what the exchange rate will become, on the sauce market. Assuming diablo is pulled...let's say, would 6 fire sauces be a fair rate for one diablo?

Just do what my wife does and stroll up and take anything she wants in quantity. Chipotle Tabasco, Taco Bell Diablo sauce, etc.

"I take 3 kids out to eat and your ass. I think I'm entitled to some extra sauces"

And if they try to refuse they get angry black woman face and end up dumping a container in her purse.

Sauce for sauce, bruh? No, you aren't even in the right ballpark. 2 cheesy bean and rice burritos for one diablo, then we got something to talk about.

My go-to right now is 2 cheesy bean n rice burritos and 1 (fiery) DLT w/beans. Maybe some chips n cheese too.

Eating Taco Bell in Madrid. It's amazing, they have spicy chicken as one of the meat options

Also they have 80s music videos playing. Taco Bell has found a way to outdo themselves.

Edit: Also they serve beer

Edit 2: Holy fuck they have the old grilled stuft burrito formula. Might be one of the best Taco Bell experiences ever.

old grilled stuff burrito recipe

that used to be lunch at least 2-3 times a work week

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #1101 on:** May 31, 2016, 07:14:50 AM »

I took pictures of this glorious experience:

The menu. I unintentionally left off the dessert menu, which blows away the options available in the US.

Notice the spicy chicken coming out of the quesadilla. The Taco Bell really went out here as they put in a lot of meat in the quesadilla. You can see an ad where they sell beer. While I was enjoying my experience, a couple other customers were eating and both were drinking beer with their food. I should have done that. Another item I did not note is that they have a combo meal with nacho chips and cheese. Not sure if that is in the US either but I never get them if they are part of US combos. This lunch ran me 10.65 Euros, which might be a couple more dollars than the US but it was totally worth it.

The TV screen where they were playing the 80s music videos. As you can see, the Taco Bell here was exceptionally clean and modern looking.

Friends, I have seen the glory and the truth

At the Taco Bell in this crappy little Ohio town (the finest eatery here) they have something called a Boss Burrito and it is amazing. Giant burrito with chicken (had the option of steak but that ain't happening), some sort of amazing sauce, fried potatoes, and bacon. It's so goddamn good words cannot describe it.

Yeah the naming on those is a little ambiguous.

Veteran Taco Bell App users:

If you want to sub beans for beef using the app, do you only have to swipe the beef section over to beans or is there something else that needs to be done? When I look at stuff in my cart it just says "add beans" which makes me nervous.

I'd feel like WAY too much of a dick to go inside a fast food joint or drive thru and ask for all types of personalized requests. The app allows you to just quickly do all that shit, order, and then drive to Taco Bell in 5-10min and pick it up without feeling bad.

Try the beans at least AiA. Yea they're "Taco Bell beans" but still. They're way better than the "beef" on nearly everything.

TBH the only thing off the top of my head that's probably better with beef is the chalupas. That that's close.
