What's your favorite Taco Bell item?

The taco bell I worked at 5 years ago never trained us with portion sizes. So yea you do get more or less sometimes.

Taco Bell sucks compared to years past- the hard shell tacos used to hold together before they changed them to those that get soggy before you get home. Now they dumped the taco salad- I have found it preferable to call in my order to a real restaurant ahead of time and pick it up for carry out- usually get better quality even if you have to walk in the store to pick it up- it’s worth it

I'm definitely not imagining some inconsistencies with the locations and workers at my local taco bells. One litterally gave me a flat as hell taco and one time all of them were stuffed nicely

My friend has worked at 12 different Taco Bell’s and she’s told me all 12 mangers have told her and other staff to make the portions smaller in all food items. Apparently it actually common for Taco Bell’s to do this. So if you feel like one Taco Bell gives you more your not “Imagining”it.

In 1990 When I was a Taco Bell employee I made the refried beans and ground beef with Taco Bell seasoning all from scratch. Now it isn't the same. What a shame

[KingArtexerxes]

I quit ordering from Taco Bell months ago. The quantity of meat went way down and every time I found something I liked at the price I was willing to pay, they would discontinue it.

I worked in taco bell and can tell you we dont throw out overweight or underweight items.

[HellcatM]

Any item that is over by 3/10th of an ounch is thrown out? WTF? "Don't give people anything extra, its better to just throw it in the trash". Unbelievable.

[ClamBake]

Crunchy taco supremes are the best thing they have. My mom loved the Taco salads but those are long gone...

[mwilson]

21 years ago I was a Assistant supervisor everything was cooked in store only thing that we had to finish cooking was the chicken ever since Pepsi took over Taco Bell isn't the same or KFC

[jernigan]

bring back the DOUBLE DECKER TACO ! and the XXL GRILLED STUFFED BURRITO !

[hopolo]

"the uniformity of your Bell is probably the most inconsistent fast food restaurant of all time. Portion size and distribution of ingredients is usually all over the place most times. It wasn't always this way in years past.

[GrubWarp]

I stopped eating Taco Bell, but that sour cream daaaayum

[drewhempwood]

Bring back the Mexican pizza you monsters

[erich]

What I wish All Taco Bell Corporate knew was I stopped going there because there is no more filling in them. How much shredded cheese, , , there is not cheese in those things, , , heck there is not even any lettuce in it anymore. Or meat.

[johnjanoscrat]

Nice video, just had Taco Bell about 8 hours ago. No complaints here.

[famousbowl]

The bean flakes are simply dehydrated beans. Kraft sells dehydrated beans and they are so delicious. I bought them at a 400% markup in jail lol. 5$ a little bag

[johngettis]

years ago when Naugles was still around they made their refried beans from something strange. They started with real dried beans. The one nearest me had a kitchen in the back that was dedicated to doing that or at least that is what I was told.
