Taco Bell was the only place open later than 9 PM near where I lived in Rochester. Depending on what you order, it's not so bad.

Taco Bell is disgusting but I can't say I don't crave it on occasion.  I ate a ton of it during my undegrad days in college, like many other folks.

It's funny to me that in all these rural GA towns, the first non-fast food joint, after a BBQ place, is a mexican joint 99% of the time.  
Keep out those Messicans, but.....make me dinner, first.

Taco Bell tastes better after 2am.  That's science.
.
And something doesn't have to be "quality" to be "good."  You can enjoy a 2-star movie or have pride in a $15K car.  
We go to Taco Bell for variety, for the most part.  It's not another burger.  It's not fried chicken.

All quite true.


I enjoy watching Texas football even though it hasn't been good in over a decade.

Wait, bad example.  I do NOT enjoy watching bad Texas football... :(

I'm pretty meh on most fast food. I used to like Chipotle, but my experiences there have been so hit and miss lately that I am mostly done with them. Cane's is a favorite of the kids - it's fine for what it is. I don't really get into most of the chicken places. Jimmy John's isn't bad if I'm in the mood for a sandwich. Anyway, Taco Bell is up there over the usual suspects. At least you get hot sauce.

I've started frequenting Jersey Mike's for whatever reason.  
It's so strange to me that the line for Cane's is infinite while Portillo's and a dozen other places aren't.  
I went out around midnight last night for food and my options were McDonalds, Whataburger, In-and-Out, and Cane's.  I kind of went to Whataburger by default, as McDonalds is McDonalds and the other two had 30+ cars in the lines.  

I'll never ever ever understand waiting 45 min for fast food.  Get something from a gas station, lol.

I avoid FF on principle unless traveling.  We had lunch today at Farm Buger, an honest sort of place, with beer, and good burgers.  They were quite busy which was nice to see, we got to know the manager and she's very nice.

The burgers came out fast.  I had a chicken burger and the wife had their salad.  We have a Chipotle nearby and a Panera and that is it for chain fast food near us, other than Chick-Fil-A, which is always packed for lunch.  There is a nice small park outside CFA ideal for dining.

A buddy of mine is about to open a new place near there, same complex, looks interesting.

Taco Bell tacos are cheap meat, not particularly flavorfully seasoned, covered in cheese shredded to about the diameter of a human hair that tastes more like the anti-caking agent covering it than actual cheese, and limp lettuce. You can make it a "supreme" and get a tiny squirt of sour cream and a few diced tomatoes. 

Yeah, you get hot sauce, which is necessary to make it palatable. And their "Fire" sauce is one step above mild. You don't even get real hot sauce. 

Pretty much the entire rest of their menu is the same, except upcharging to wrap that crap in more cheese and a soft tortilla (ooh, it's a "gordita"!), or serve it over chips (ooh, it's "nachos bellgrande"!), etc. 

Most fast food is terrible and just designed to fill your face with cheap calories. I get it. But for Taco Bell to be palatable, even when compared to other fast food, you'd better be drunk or high.

This Taco Bell slander shall not stand. Taco Bell is the perfect fast food. It's fast food - of course it is greasy, salty, cheesy and all the other things. It's the same meat that McDonald's serves, just actually seasoned to taste like something. Then they wrap it in cheese and a crunchy shell. Then you douse it with hit sauce. A man who knows the various flavors of Taco Bell hot sauce by name is a man who has made some runs to the border. 

You also can't improve on it. Sure, you can make better tacos. But you can't make better Taco Bell tacos. Chik Fil A is just bland fried chicken. Anyone can make a good hamburger. But no one can make a better Taco Bell taco. It can't be done.
