There's people that actually like the shrimp taco/burrito? I couldn't even finish one bite, and I love shrimp.
 
Dear god you guys :lol

I guess I will prepare my bathroom beforehand. I'm not going there alone, a friend lives close. We'll be like 5-6 guys to never have eaten there.
 
I used to like taco bell but the stuff has just gotten gross to me, I do like the steak quesadillas. Anyway, Del Taco is much better.

One would have to be psychotic (or very, very brave) to eat Seafood from Taco Bell.

it's not that bad on you at all. GAFers must have weak stomachs.

get one of a few things and see what you like. leave the bean burritos along unless you like farting and shitting.
 
Meh at the hate, its not bad for snack food. If its for a meal, hit up Chipotle or a legit mexican food joint instead. Taco Bell has a great dollar menu. I say get a:

Double Decker taco - 1.79 (?)
Beefy Crunch Burrito - 99cents
nacho - 89 cents

Great for late night. No bathroom problems here.

I think I'll try out the Crunchwrap Supreme and the Cheesy Gordita Crunch, as recommended by some gaffers. They look good on their website at least.

:/
First time for anything
 
for cheap stuff, I like their hard tacos.

hard taco supremes are better but not worth the extra money unless you have coupons

Crunchwraps are the hot shit. I've never gotten a cheesy gordita without it being soggy as shit though. The cheese seeping through the wrap n shit. I'd stay away from that one.
 
I've don't remember ever getting the shits from Taco Bell, and rarely if that.

You have several options OP:
1- 2 Crunchwrap Supremes - You're gonna want another after the first so just think ahead.
2-3 Soft Tacos - Standard procedure, but they'll usually get the job done with a drink or something.
3- Cheesy Double Bean(Beef?) Burrito - So good, one is enough but two truly satisfies.
4- Chicken & Steak Quesadillas - Either or, possibly both so you don't have to choose between greatness. I'd advise you get more than one though.

As for a drink, you must get a mango Fruitista Freeze or one of those friendly margaritas. There is no other option here.

fourthmeal is the best meal. Also if they don't give you any sauce, get up and walk behind the counter and get it yourself. So good
 
Please get the Steak Quesadilla and a Cheesy Gordita Crunch.

Two best things on the menu hands down.

Also fire sauce and border salsa.

I'm going to Taco Bell right now after posting this.
 
I heard Taco-bell is quite up market.

I've personally never been there (I've heard too many horror stories), but 5 of my best friends on graduation night in high school went there to eat after the ceremony and they all ended up in the hospital because of how sick they got. They said it started with the usual Taco Bell explosive shitting, then it just fucked their whole system up and they had to get that shit drained and an IV at the hospital.

I didn't go because I had family from another state visiting thankfully. Stay away from that hell hole.

That must be really common for them to be the #1 fast food joint.

Good lord guys. Not everything people eat needs to be organic, antibiotic free, straight from the cow to the grill meal. A few chunks of anus never hurt anyone.
 
I always order the same thing from Taco Bell. A soda, 3 bean burritos and an order of cinnamon twists. So good.

I don't have any kind of stomach issues from it either.

Good luck Giard and may fortune smile upon you.
 
I used to eat there every so often... no more than McDonalds or something. However, the last two times I went there the food was literally bad - it had gone rotten. Nachos I got were stale and it stank to shit, my friends who were enjoying their meals even agreed. If I'm ever "forced" to go there I just get a single soft taco and call it quits. Haven't gone to Taco Bell in probably almost 2 years at this point

I'd soooo much rather eat at Arby's
 
these horrible shits that people get seem greatly exaggerated to me

i like
cheesy gordita crunch
baja chapula
double decker taco
beefy crunch burrito
steak taquitos

among others

i didnt like the crunchwrap supreme.. felt just like a crappy sandwhich

i wouldnt trust them with shrimp though.. fast food shrimp is never good
 
I don't care what they make it from, Taco Bell is incredible.

Chicken Quesadilla with extra jalapeno sauce for a good time.

Our small town lost our Taco Bell due to the franchise fees going up. :(
 
Taco Bell is one of my favorite fast food places (along with Wendy's).

I like to have 5 soft tacos and a Volcano burrito, no sour cream. Fire sauce on both, and a Mountain Dew. Never fails to disappoint.
 
I like Taco Bell because it's cheap. I seldom eat at a restaurant, but when I hang out with friends who do, I try steering them towards the least expensive possible place.

It's just a pleasant bonus that Taco Bell beef contains cocoa.

Edit: Quesadillas with soft taco.

Seriously. Some of you guys must have paper mâché innards or something. I've never gotten sick off of Taco Bell, and it's not bad every now and then. And I'll also second Brian's recommendations. The Baja Chalupa is my favorite thing off of their menu.

Oh, and the marina shrimp tacos are fucking bullshit. Same goes for the cantina tacos. So fucking bad in terms of what you get for the money.

Jesus thats a lot of fucking tacos.
 
I avoid anything on the menu with refried beans and that seems to keep the Hershey Squirts away. Anything else and you're asking for it.

there is a lot of hyperbole in this thread.

just go for it, it ain't gonna kill you. just remember that Taco Bell's first priority is to be fast and cheap. if you like it (it's fairly good actually) then that's a plus
 
I love Taco Bell. Never had a problem with it fucking up my digestive system.
I'd recommend a Burrito Supreme (sans tomatoes), Crunchwrap Supreme (sans tomatoes), Steak Quesadilla, or a 5-Layer Burrito.

I'd say for your first time, pick any two of those and you should be okay. Or if you are feeling hungry and maybe just worked out, go for all of them.
I would warn you though that I, as well as several people I know, find Taco Bell's tomatoes to be absolutely disgusting. They always taste bad and are really slimy/watery, which makes the food item real soggy. No tomatoes on anything works really good.

For a drink, maybe try the Baja Blast? I know that it has a huge following. I personally don't like the taste of it at all, but then again, I don't really care for fountain drinks to begin with. But Baja Blast has never tasted good to me. I would recommend it though, at least for you to try it.

None of the sauce is that hot, to include the Hot Sauce. But it does add a little bit of a different flavor to whatever you ordered. So add it or don't. I never do, but it's not bad.

Also, if you decide to eat there and are still hungry when leaving, order two or three of the cheese rollups. They are like, $.89 ea. They are pretty much tortillas with melted cheese in them, but they taste better than any tortilla with melted cheese that I have ever made in a microwave when hungry. They are nice little snacks.

My wife likes the Crunchwrap's while my personal favorite item on the menu is a tomato-less Burrito Supreme. When I was younger I liked Nachos Supreme's, then Nachos BelGrande's, then Mexican Pizzas when those came out, then Chalupa's/Gorditta's when those came out, the Quesadilla's. But I have settled on Burrito Supreme's as my number one thing on the menu. Especially after having Taco Bell in Korea. Those Koreans can make a damn good Taco Bell burrito. Best I've ever had. Just wish the Cheesy Beefy Melt was still on the menu. Supposedly they can be made to order though.


Enjoy eating there. Or maybe you won't, if you have the stomach of a colicky, 3 month-old infant like most of GAF seems to.
It's not Triple-A amazing five-star food, but for being cheap fast food, it's the best.
 
So taco bell seriously gives people digestive problems? Why? The only reasons I can think of is either it's too spicy maybe or you're getting food poisoning. I've been going to Taco Bell on average once a week for maybe the last decade and I have never gotten food poisoning so I doubt it's a hygiene issue.

I doubt it's food poisoning. It's just a natural occurrence for the type of food there.

People who usually arent used to spicy foods (lame people) get the runs.

Not really. It's just a joke that's been going on for a long time, so people just associate taco bell with the shits. It's just another case of gaffers going for the most obvious joke.
 
Giard said:
Yeah...well there aren't a lot where I live.
First time I'm living within 30 minutes of one.

What do you guys recommend? Are there some that I shouldn't even consider?
Click to expand...

start off easy man.

Hard shell taco supremes with no lettuce. If you get lettuce they'll skimp you on everything else, so even if you like lettuce it's better to ask for no lettuce.

Also, a chili cheese burrito add sour cream.

It's true.

Lettuce = like 6 shreds of cheese and two tomatoes.

No Lettuce = a cheese stuffed shell topped with a bunch of diced tomatoes.

Why so many of you not like tomatoes?

I like tomatoes, just not Taco Bell tomatoes. I find them gross, in taste and consistency, and will not order anything with their tomatoes on it.
Now whether they give me an item with no tomatoes on it or not is up to chance, since the people at my closest Taco Bell are lazy morons. Well, not the girl who was double-charging people after they left using their card numbers and pocketing the money. She wasn't that dumb, in that it took a couple days for her to get fired (already gone by the time I noticed what happened). But I got side-tracked, if they give me all the food I ordered and did not forget something, then I consider myself lucky to have gotten it, regardless of if there are tomatoes on it or not. Because my local Taco Bell has a habit of forgetting to give you parts of your order.

Oh I believe you.

Funny story: Taco Bell was my first job, and I used to make the people these bomb ass steak burritos; like stuff as much of that shit in there as possible, bomb. The customers loved it. They didn't, and actually busted a damn scale out on me. Weighed every fucking thing I gave out. I was one of their best employees though, so I never actually caught much flak for it besides that.
