What is 'faster mile'? Sorry, Google returned nothing.

As in you have a faster time record for running a mile.

The joke is that Christopher Reeve is a quadriplegic, meaning it's incredibly easy to have a better record for a mile run than him.

I just popped in on this thread at random, I have nothing else to offer other than I think the only thing good about Taco Bell is their sauce so I just buy it at the store and make my own burritos at home.
 
Alright. Thanks.

But the mainline fast food places don't care if they are dropping standards wherein a gas station makes the better product.
 
If TB gives you the runs you're probably either a pussy, or lactose intolerant and unaware of it.

I want a steak quesarito.

Also where do they get their sour cream from? It's the best I ever had, and store brands all taste awful in comparison.
 
The only thing I ever truly liked at Taco Bell was the Cheesy Gordita Crunch, and I've long since just stolen the recipe and started making my own because I'm sick of these faggots making it a limited time thing.

Anybody ever been to a Laredo Taco at an Exxon gas station? They only have 7 options but they taste better than all of TB.

Actually, Laredo Taco Company is pretty good. They make their tortillas in-house and even have smaller plates. At the end of the day, of course, you're eating tacos from a 7-Eleven (they do own the brand and the convenience stores around them) but it's one of the few places where you can get authentic-style tacos (as opposed to hipster tacos) that could conceivably pass health regulations.
 
I wish that Taco Bell didn't keep changing their $5 boxes. I liked the old chalupa box with the 5 layer beefy burrito. It felt like a better deal to get a taco, a burrito, and chalupa (plus cinnamon twists and a drink) versus a taco and some double chalupa dealio that is often soggy because of the tomatoes.

I've never had a good drink at Taco Bell. I've been to several all across the southeast at different points of time and all the drinks are mixed horrifically. I just want some damn Dr Pepper that doesn't taste like brown colored mineral water.

Overall, I prefer Del Taco in terms of taste (their grilled chicken tacos are good), but I always leave Del Taco hungry. At least with Taco Bell I'll be full for a couple hours minimum.

I miss the old "Chalupa Cravings Deal" too.

Sometimes it comes down to not cleaning their equipment enough I find.

I only wish mine didn't close down a few years ago.

It was nice having the burrito for the next day. Reheated decently.

That would explain a lot considering how many Taco Bells are run almost exclusively by high school students. The water was okay last time I visited.

Our old one closed down in the early 2000s. Three have popped up in the past couple years in my general area, but I live less than five minutes away from Taco Bell. Guess which gets more traffic from me.

The nearest TB to me has been there since the mid 80's. I'm surprised it hasn't closed at all, but I guess they get some business, especially for a franchise location (my town is split between corporate and franchise stores).

There hasn't been a Del taco where I live since I was a kid in the 90s.

Hmm, the one in my town lasted nearly a decade. I suppose it was a noble experiment to bring Del Taco to Ohio but didn't add any new locations in the process (ironically the Detroit area has a bunch).

I mean, I certainly have hotter at home, but that Diablo sauce they offer is about as hot as anything I've ever had at a fast food joint before.

I don't know if it's my tastebuds or if it's the sauce they always have in stock at the one near me, but Diablo sauce tastes like literal nothingness to me. No flavor. No heat. Nothing. Just.. sauce. Fire sauce, hot sauce, even fucking mild all have flavor and at least tiny bit of heat, but Diablo is just emptiness in a packet.

It tastes sweet and sugary to me. Not actually that hot, though. Hmm.
 
When I get Taco Bell I like quantity.

Those 1 dollar taco deals are all I need.

I'd rather not get Botulism and plague.
 
I'm going to echo what someone else said above: If you get the runs from Taco Bell or gas station food, that's just natural selection at work. A healthy immune system and digestive system should be able to cope with anything that doesn't cause an actual in-the-news health scare. Sorry, you just got a poor roll of the dice when the divinities were rolling up your character.

To me, the Diablo sauce has a citrus-y flavor. It's not sweet, but it is a bit tangy. And it's warm enough for me that I can stretch one packet over two tacos and still get them enjoyably warm.
