I don't understand how taco bell survives in my city when I'm surrounded by dozens of real mexican restaurants and food trucks.
Probably on price.
Taco bell is hella overpriced, but I'm sure that just gives an excuse to the other scumbags to charge even more. I'm always disgusted at the prices food trucks charge vs. the quality of food they shit out.
Useful idiots gonna useful idiot ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Would you believe that it is the favorite “Mexican” restaurant in the country?
Taco Bell did win the restaurant wars...
It use to be the spot when you had 3AM cravings and only $6 to spend. Now it’s overpriced meat-hose garbage.
Taco bell is one the the few fast food joints that still has decent cheap options.
They have a $7 luxe box ( if you use the app you can customize it.) That actually gives a worthwhile amount of food.
And as far as I can tell it's an all the time deal, not some shitty limited time promotion like mcshit offers trying to get people to come bsck to their overpriced garbage. ($6+ just for fucking "large" french fries)
Not ever since they got rid of the $1 beef burrito.
Taco bell is scamcity just like the rest of them.
if youre up at 3am with a craving and only $6 to spend its probably crack, and you're not gonna be hungry.
Taco Bell doesn't compete with mexican food, it competes with Jack in the Box and Taco Johns, perhaps anywhere that has a salad bar.
Sure bud.
Taco Bell isn't Mexican food. It's shitty American fast food with a Mexican slant.
The elitism surrounding ground beef, cheese, beans, and tortillas is always amusing.
I bet you also think less or more of people based on how they like their steak.
