I'll never understand all these people with such sensitive digestive systems that they can't eat Taco Bell.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I don't know about yours, but my digestive system isn't a big fan of salmonella and e coli.

True, I didn't go for the Iron Stomach skill. Will in the next playthrough, though.

You can find the same problems with any fast food chain. And neither of those things affect your anus specifically, so they can't be what OP is referring to.

Other fast food chains having unacceptably lax hygiene doesn't make it acceptable for Taco Bell.

Both give you diarrhea, which necessitates a lot of wiping, which affects the anus specifically.

Have you never had diarrhea, have you always used a bidet or are you just full of shit (pun intended)?

Which are not common problems at Taco Bell.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Those two links are both to descriptions of major outbreaks originating at Taco Bell..

[–] Drusas@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Two instances does not make something common.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Two major outbreaks are still two too many. Stop simping for a megacorp that doesn't respect it's employees or customers enough to pay enough to care about hygiene.

[–] Drusas@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Stating factual information is not simping. Two outbreaks does not make it a common problem, no matter how you feel about the corporation.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They're not isolated events unrelated to how they run things, though.

One might be a fluke, but two or more (and there's probably more, those were just the first results of a couple quick searches) is indicative of a more systemic problem of Taco Bell not taking food hygiene seriously.

Yo, I got to ask. Why is the rock even cooking? How did this become his tagline? If his name was the cook or the chef or something, sure, but the rock?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Sometimes big burly men in spandex beating up each other aren't logically consistent.

You're not wrong, though..

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 0 points 2 years ago

I mean... in this instance what he is cooking is explained in the OP: he uses Taco Bell ingredients to "cook up" something "special". Which he then allows you to smell - he's so friendly to share like that.:-P

Just ask for no red sauce, this is Taco Bell 101

[–] wellee@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is that why this meme exists? I've never been sick from taco bell and it's always seemed really well made. I've always wondered how everyone is collectively getting sick from Taco bell lmao

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

I'm pretty sure it is rooted in the stereotype that Mexican food gives people the shits, paired with fast food in general can fuck with people's guts. Doesn't help that taco bell actively goes out of their way to make unholy abominations... They've been the source of a couple food poisoning and salmonella outbreaks but that's just a lettuce/produce thing iirc and hits a lot of places

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 4 points 2 years ago

If you think Taco Bell red sauce is too much, you probably also think mayo is spicy.

[–] BreakDecks@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Imagine thinking taco bell is spicy. I've eaten curries hotter than Diablo sauce.
