A Taco Bell finally opened up where I live, and we are going to go try it tonight. What should I try and what should I avoid?

Of course I know I should try another restaurant and avoid Taco Bell, that's too obvious, but what is life without a little Adventure.

Taco bells menu is like 10 different ingredients combined in various ways, it nearly all tastes identical with the exception of the various protein options (I suggest vegetarian).

[–] GreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.social 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yes! Taco Bell is the go-to fast food restaurant for vegetarians. I suggest the black bean chalupa supreme, veggie mexican pizza, and cheesy fiesta potatoes. Unfortunately, that meal and a beverage will probably cost about $17 usd these days

I didn't realize lemmy was popular enough to bother advertising on yet.

Try to prepare for disappointment. I was never a huge fan, but would have it occasionally. Had it for the first time in a decade or so a few years ago and didn't enjoy any part of the meal (various different stuff at an office party) :P

If you enjoy it, that's wonderful; it's just never really been a thing I look forward to, and I hope you don't have too good an image in your head.

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It was definitely better than the other taco place we have.

[–] tiredofsametab@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

That is both good and horrifying, but I'm glad you have something better :)

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Baja Blast with whatever you get. Its the best god damn thing about taco bell and im STILL FUCKING PISSED IT LOST THAT ELECTION TO BE YEAR ROUND IN STORS LIKE 7 YEARS AGO

[–] morphballganon@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You've got some people saying you gotta slather it in the hot sauces, and other people saying to get ready to have the shits.

Uh, you can avoid the shits by not using the hot sauces.

Dorito locos tacos, or DLT as the workers summarize for me but I am too embarrassed to use myself

[–] MonsterMonster@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Pretty much any other food outlet, that way you'll not be disappointed. I've no idea about your country but Taco Bell in the UK is expensive and poor quality.

The jizz, shit, and piss burrito is a classic.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Have you ever had real Mexican food? Taco Bell is a not a good introduction.

Get quantity over quality (many small tacos)

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I did consider getting the party pack, but I wasn’t ten taco hungry tonight.

Beef chalupa

[–] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

I hope you have some Charmin ultra soft ready to go for tomorrow morning

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

All I get at Taco Bell any more is the steak power bowl and the cheese potatoes. The bowl is basically just a deconstructed burrito and the cheesy potatoes are cubed, fried potatoes covered in nacho cheese and sour cream.

Their French fries are also hella good; they're like their own kind of cheese dust covered fry. But the cheese potatoes are just better

Crunch wrap & fries supreme (🇨🇦)

The fries supreme are just a shadow of their former self though, 20 years ago they were the best fast food item you could get

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 9 months ago

Cheesy Gordita Crunch with the nacho cheese shell on the inside.

[–] Jaysyn@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

A Seven-layer Steak Burrito & a beef meximelt..... about 12 years ago....

The chicken chalupa is pretty good.

[–] morganth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 9 months ago

Honestly? Just their basic tacos. Maybe the Doritos version if they still have those. But just get a couple of the hard tacos with some Fire sauce. If you like those, you may like other things on the menu; if you don’t, you probably won’t like any of it. They’re Taco Bell distilled.

[–] biscoot@lemmy.getmeotter.work 2 points 9 months ago

I can recommend the Chalupa and Crunch Wrap Supreme

[–] Gigan@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I like the doritos tacos

[–] Daveofthenorth@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Steak grilled cheese burrito

[–] athos77@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago (5 children)

If they have it (not all locations do), the chili cheese burrito.
