The Fast Food Thread

For me, I don't say I want Mexican food and say Taco Bell. I consider them two completely different things. Probably what a lot of others are thinking as well.

Something I've always wondered about...is Taco Bell still popular in places that have HUGE Mexican populations and tons of good, cheap Mexican Food options? Like, I can't imagine that Long John Silvers or Captain Ds is real popular along the coasts where fresh seafood is abundant, I wouldn't think Taco Bell would be overly popular along border states that have tons of mom & pop Mexican joints, taco trucks, etc. Just like here in KC I never touch chain BBQ like Rib Crib or Famous Daves, that crap is terrible compared to legit, local BBQ. Then again, McRibs at Mcdonalds are always wildly popular each year when they're available, so I guess there are idiots everywhere...

I was totally shocked with how many fucking Taco Bells there were in the Phoenix area when I moved here. So many good mexican places to eat here that even have drive thus. People still go to taco bell. I just don't get it. I tried the A.M crunch wrap and it was really good. Now I'll go back to getting an egg and chorizo burrito when I feel like getting fast food for breakfast.

Exactly. Taco Bell isn't "bad Mexican Food". It's Taco Bell.

It makes sense if you think about it. In America we have plenty of burger joints everywhere but even still a ton of fast food burger places.

Don't the market Taco Bell in Mexico as American food?

I like the picture of the tacos and beans they used for Taco Bell. That is definitely not a Taco Bell pic! Anyway, most of that stuff is "duh" kind of revelations.

And that was the least damning condemnation.

""I worked at taco bell a little bit ago and I warn everyone to stay away from both the beans, and the steak. The beans start out looking like cat food, and the directions are, 'Add water and stir until you can't see white anymore.' The steak was just the worst on dish duty. If it would sit too long it would become like hair gel. It was the worst.""

Oh the beans look gross and the steak is hard for you to clean? Why should this stop me from eating that trash??

... are you trolling?

Are either of those revelations surprising to you about Taco Bell?

BrutulTM · Mar 28, 2014

The "shocking revelations" about fast food places are not usually shocking or revelations.

That's not what he was arguing. He's saying "why shouldn't I eat this, despite what you just said?"

I don't eat fast food, I'm not gay. I just stumbled into this thread cause every once in a while Chipotle comes up!

They must have changed the beans, when I worked there in my younger years their beans looked like brown cornflakes, all you had to do was add water.

Confirmed. Itlan a gigantic faggot.

Gravy · Mar 29, 2014

Double confirmed.

I had a dandy burger at Sonic today. I had the double cheese burger with hickory sauce and onions. They used to actually have this on the menu for many years, but took it off about ten years ago, I guess. But I've always been able to order it 'Hickory' since then. It's a good change-up.

Alex · Mar 29, 2014

The only good thing I've ever had at Sonic is the tater tots. Their burgers taste like school cafeteria burgers.

Gravy · Mar 29, 2014

Heh, the tots were what I was really going for when I pulled in. They were delicious.

Joeboo · Mar 29, 2014

Sonic and Whataburger are the exact same hamburger. That being said, I like both. Sonic chili cheese tots, add onions & jalapenos, then orgasm as you eat them.

Gravel · Mar 29, 2014

Sonic's only appeal for me is the drinks. And if it weren't for happy hour, I wouldn't buy those either.

That's a lie, Whataburger is definitely one rung up the ladder.

I have a friend who says Whataburger is the best of all fast food burgers. They left Tampa and he was seriously thinking of driving 5 hours to the closest Whataburger for his fix. When he traveled to Texas for work he ate there like 3 times.
