Why do so many people enjoy Taco Bell?

Seriously, it’s an insult to Mexican food and tastes like crap. Not only that not one item on their menu will stay in your stomach for more than 30min after consuming it. Someone should look into that. Maybe they should hand out diapers with their meals, idk.

Same reason people buy fast food of any kind; it's fast and affordable.
Heh..
I'm a die hard mexican lover. If I was dating the most beautiful girl in the world, who loved God and who shared all my values yet hated mexican food, that would be the time when to stop calling as frequently..
The last two times I ate Taco Bell, only 1/2 the amount of food that I put into my body came out..
that means that one full taco bell meal is rotting inside my intestines..
Nasty.

I don't know those cinnamon twists are awesome, that is pretty much the sole reason I go (and end up buying several bags).
Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit
Cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on toast is better, cheaper, and home made. And you can add butter to it.
not everyone shares your opinion. I think it tastes good, and if your stomach can't handle it (mine does fine) don't eat there.
problem solved.
I eat there every once in a while. I like the chicken gorditas. I agree, it's insulting to Mexico to even refer to Taco Bell as "Mexican food".
The thing I don't get is, when I order 2 chicken gorditas, I get like 14 packs of hot sauce. Why? The chicken gorditas actually taste pretty good. Now, if I had ordered a twice fried bean burrito, I could understand needing 7 packs of hot sauce to mask the flavor.
You must be the model Taco Bell consumer then.
Obviously my body knows better

Why is taco bell bad for you really?
fast food place that gives you the shits
I haven't eaten at a Taco Bell in I'd say somewhere around 8 months now. I haven't had the urge to do so either in all that time. I'm personally indifferent to it, I don't hate it nor do I like it. I'll choose other things over it if abailable however.
No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-
Because Taco Bell makes the best hamburger.

Taco Bell in San Diego is alot better then Taco Bell in Washington DC. The food from our Taco Bell is almost on the same quality as the Taco shops around here. Also most of the workers at the Taco Bells and Green Burritos around here are Mexican so...

the condition of my body is pretty damn good, and taco bell/johns doesnt give me the shits.
a couple of food serveys i saw way back rated taco bell the healthiest fast food out there. lowest in fat and what not. im sure its out there if you want to look it up as oppossed to make a judgement because your body doesnt like it.
3 months ago I started a job where I work long hours and lots of em with no real lunch break or opporunity to leave the room save for a smoke on the patio when Im relieved by a coworker, or a quick pee in the bathroom right across the hall.
Anyhow- there's a taco bell about a mile from here so i've been having the patrolman bring me back 3 double decker tacos or a beef and potato burrito and 2-3 double deckers almost every day for the past 3 months.
5'5" and around 165 right now. 6 months ago I was 142 exactly, all muscle. I used to go to the gym 6 days a week for an hour. Started dating a girl, stopped going to the gym, started going out to eat more...
I should really stop doing the taco bell thing and start packing lunches but I have lots of excuses to myself and little motivation. The biggest one being it tastes sooooo good. I don't like how my stomach feels after though. : (
uh... it's cheap? ... maybe?...
I know it isn't Mexican food and I don't give a shit. I also know that I can buy a grilled stuffed steak burrito for $4 and that's like a pound and a fuckin' half of burrito! You aren't going to get that much, for that little at any other "scarf 'n barf" fast food place.
Sure, you can feel your arteries harden while you eat, but you're going to anyway right?
It's referred to as Tex-Mex, not mMexican.
This is because of processed foods. They really are hard for the body to digest for most people. And the added chemicals they add to keep it fresh longer and tastier.
I must confess though it does taste good, but that is inheritantly the secrets of the fast food industry and quick foods, munchies etc. Adding chemicals and additaves to give a better tasting product.
Who let you in the VIP section?
I love Taco Bell so i guess i can explain why i like it so much.
Because to me it tastes good. I didnt think it was too hard to figure out.
One fast food joint i cant stand though is KFC...
In South Dokota they advertise West-Mex... lol
My friends like it because they can get Mountin Dew there ;p
If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude; greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
Samuel Adams
Why?
My system has no trouble handling it.
I generally enjoy the food so long as I don't get it from one of the joints that mess it up all the time
I don't have any kind of identity problems with the kind of food I eat there, I know its not mexican, and I don't particularly care. Just like I know most pizzas we get aren't Italian and the Chinese buffets barely fall under the category.
I can get more food for a lower price than any of their FF competitors, including that POS McDonalds.
They have an exclusive deal with the only kind of soda I enjoy drinking on a regular basis.
Really good for clearing out the sinuses.
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
Hemingway
Why? Because it's not bad. Your body can't handle it? Maybe YOU'RE the one who needs a new body, not those of us who eat it without problems.
I will eat there from time to time when I'm bored of salads and smoothies and trying to find a sub place that doesn't make sandwiches that count for my entire daily intake of fats, calories, sugar, and salt. If you eat healthy 95% of the time, there's no reason to not enjoy some cheap, filling food the other 5%.
I used to eat there once or twice a year but after I ate authentic mexican food I maybe go once every 2 years. Just to remind myself what it tastes like.
Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!
That makes sense
I never said I had problems. I work out daily, Mt Bike, Kite Board, and hike in my free time. I’m pretty sure I don’t need a new body, but I know better than to eat undercooked food, and Taco Bell had it's problems in the past with E. coli outbreaks. I'm not gonna risk sickness or death just to stuff some crappy food in my face when there is much better more available places to eat. I guess if you already wiegh 500 pouinds like I asume you do then by all means eat as unhealthy as you like, you can't do much worse to your body. No idea why you would defend it, uless you happen to work there.

You're trying to generalize exceptions; be it any e. coli incident or diarrhea problems of your own. Taco Bell isn't an illness and death factory.
Fast food is apart of America. I guarantee if representatives from the "big three"; Wendy, Ronald McDonald and the Burger King were jetting to Washington for a bailout, 'lest the fast food industry crashes, more Americans would be behind that bailout than the auto bailout.
Man, thanks... now I'm craving Taco Bell... sooo hungry... wish my wife would go to the store.... cannot fend for self... mmn taco smell...
