Taco Bell is a unique style of crap that's pretty good. I'd go for the classics: a beef taco and a bean burrito. Maybe a bowl of pinto beans. Everything needs to be covered in the packets of hot sauce. The hot and fire are the only good ones (I'm going by memories from the 90s btw).
Imagine you recommend anything but Diablo sauce. Are you serious? Why would you even go to Taco Bell?
Diablo sauce is gross, though. It's really no hotter than Fire (and neither is very hot) but it tries to do something smoky and citrusy or some shit, and being Taco Bell, they can't pull it off. Better to just go with the tomato and vinegar and powdered jalapeno in whichever concentration level they can handle.
I haven’t eaten at Taco Bell in at least 10 years and I don’t think they had Diablo Sauce then.
I've never found an acceptable substitute for their nacho cheese sauce (sure it's probably basically plastic. But it's plastic I crave) or the chalupa shells. Nothing is close to either of those.
I'm a big quesarito fan, but I'm basically happy with my own of that.
This is the answer. It's only remarkable if you can't quickly get tacos anywhere else. It's kind of its own thing, though and it sort of hits the spot sometimes.
If I actually want Tex-Mex fast food, living in Texas I'd usually take any of the following before Taco Bell:
There is another taco place in town, but its absolute ass. Tbell was about on parr with a store bought taco kit, and I'm ok with that.
