I wish I could eat Taco Bell from the 80's.

"time machine" fast food is something I'd love to try. I'd go back to te 70's/80's and try fast food and see if it was better or worse...

On the real though, I worked at Taco Bell in 93/94 and I can honestly say, little has changed.

Sadly TB is the only cheap Mexican food place in my area, so I have little choice.

Well, the biggest change is the price. When I was in college (99 or so) You could get a taco supreme combo for like 3 bucks and change. That's awesome for 3 bucks. Now that same combo is like 7 bucks, I can eat at a real mexican place for that, or go to a taco truck for much less.

Yeah...I remember some $.69/.79/.99 ad campaign from back then. I think the smaller items like a taco/etc were in the $.69 range...

If you think like that then your diet is doomed to fail.

I was wrong...$59/.79/.99



Man...$.99 combo burrito...loved thos things. I notice the Chili Cheese Burrito was still the Chilito. They changed the name when we worked there, people asked where the chilito went for months...

You should have said "In your pants."

God only knows if I actually did...I used to get high as hell before work back then. There were a few times that they stuck me on the register...working that damn thing stoned out of my gourd was fucking difficult.

Only time I eat at TB is when the D-backs score 5 or more runs in a game, then you get 3 free tacos with a large drink, which with tax comes out a few cents short of $2.

You know I have never once had taco bell, I live within walking distance of a Moes Southwest Grill, rather pay a few extra bucks for a decent burrito.

Del Taco is my shit! There's only 2 locations left in my city, and neither are close to home or work, so I rarely get to have their food. :(

Ok just doing a follow up, i didn't get the taco shit burns...I was worried a bit as the Ghost Peppers had some heat for about 5 minutes. I was really worried for some volcano eruption with my poop hole.

They also had the most amazing ads. This guy was fantastic and also borderline racist:


I had no idea that ad was actually from 1997.

Moe's is bomb, way better than chipotle IMO.

So Taco Bell now has "Dare-Devil" loaded grillers available for $1.00.

I had thought just eating Taco Bell was being daredevil enough but apparently there's a new way to flirt with shitting your pants in public.

Also after going out west Del Taco>Taco Bell

So being the stingy bastard that I am, and having the gaul to flirt with danger I decided to try one of these for lunch. And.. it's not bad for 1.00. Decent flavor, it's hot and a good amount of food for 1.00. I went with the hottest one. So thanks for the heads up, a cheap lunch is a good lunch.
