Yeah I don't get why they removed their best burrito and never brought it back. I wouldn't care if the grilled stuffed burrito was all they served, I'd buy it every day. Though they'd probably charge $10+ for it these days.
I'm from Indianapolis and there's literally a taco truck on every corner. I'm not sure what draws so many Hispanic people here, but yeah. Tacos everywhere.
This is nothing compared to the original Frito burrito. This inferior version came in the era where Taco Bell filled everything halfway with rice to cut down on using ingredients that actually taste good, but cost more.
Yes, and the Grilled Cheese Burrito is the same thing but the chips are now called "fiesta strips" and they cover the outside in shredded cheese and put it in the quesadilla press. It's better.
If we're bringing stuff back at Taco Bell I'd like them to carry pico de gallo again please. I'd love to order some of those extremely overpriced little meximelts again.
The BCB is underwhelming, especially at the price they were last time they were released. There are much better Taco Bell items that deserve a comeback such as the Triple Steak Stack.
Do some of you just not have authentic Mexican restaurants near you!? I just cannot imagine going to Taco Bell for much, much worse food.
Even if you're in a hurry! There's a place near me that will make me a handheld burrito from scratch with green chile and my choice of protein in 5 minutes dirt-cheap...
I go to Taco Bell for Taco Bell, not for Mexican food, it has a unique taste that's fairly decent for chain Fast Food.
I don't think I've ever known anyone to unironically refer to TB as Mexican food either. It's always been its own answer to the question "What do you feel like eating?"
That's fair that people consider it its own thing. But even Taco Bell advertises itself as Mexican food! "South of the Border", "Mexican Pizza", etc...
I wish. I live in a small Canadian town and all we have is a taco bell. There used to be a great Mexican place like 15 years ago but it closed and got replace by a Wacky Wings...
There's one about an hour out of town. But the food isn't that special, I can do better at home. I find myself annoyed by what people in my area want to eat. It's either chip stand or shitty bar food so that's the kind of restaurants that stick around. At least we have one amazing Thai place, I will be devastated if it ever closes.
FFS, we have a population of under 15,000 and have 5 chip stands lol
Taco Bell is its own nostalgic flavor. It’s comfort food and like a lot of comfort food it isn’t amazing, but it is very familiar and accessible. Also there is a wide variance in quality of local burrito shops. Some are amazing and others are underwhelming. Taco Bell is consistent and predictable from one side of the country to the other. What it lacks in soul it makes up in consistency which is nice when you are exhausted and not in the mood to be surprised. When I want good, fresh food with lots of cilantro and peppers I go for the local shops though. Taco Bell factory packets can’t compare to a nice fresh batch of salsa.
