Taco Bell

I feel like all I've been doing is reviewing fast food restaurants lately.

Oh well.  So this is a taco bell, sometimes referred to as the white castle of mexican food. They serve tacos & burritos & nachos, but they don't serve bells.  Do not let the name of this restaurant confuse you! If you order a bell you will be looked at in funny ways, and you'll probably get your food spit in as well.

I'll tell you the best thing about Taco Bell.  Baja Blast Mountain Dew. I'm not even a big fan of mountain dew, but I will visit taco bell because I want to drink this magical elixir. I don't even know what the flavor is, but it's yummy. I think unicorns drink this stuff to give them magical powers.

Here are 2 things I wish taco bell would stop doing.

1) When I say "Yes, I would like hot sauce please." That does not mean I want 20 packets. I ordered one burrito and an order of nachos. I have no need for 20 hot sauce packets. And those quotes on the packets? "Are you feeling saucy?" That is downright dirty talk and not suitable for families. Give me 2 or 3 sauce packets and that is plenty!

2) Rice in burritos. This needs to stop. Rice has very little flavor and fills up too much room in my tummy that should be filled with fake beef & "just add water" cheese instead. And this doesn't just mean Taco Bell. I'm coming for you next Chipotle! Enough with the rice in burritos!

So yes, you can expect subpar food & bad service here, but thats what happens when you visit a restaurant where 95% of its employees are under the age of 17 & you're only willing to spend $3.50 for lunch. I know it kinda sucks, but I will continue to frequent here because it's cheap and fast!

Okay it is Taco Bell, I get it.  So using my Taco Bell expectation here is the issue I had with this Taco Bell.  My burrito, which was supposed to be a half pound, I am guessing was well under that weight.  I have ordered the combo burrito on a number of occasions.  So I have a pretty good feel for how big it should be.  This one was a little over half the size of the ones I normally have received.

The young lady at the window was nice and did a good job of getting me in and out and smiling.  The issue is the expectation of the burrito and getting something different.

Two stars, I have definitely had better proportioned combo burritos at other Taco Bells.
