    Yeah when taco bell is $40 for two of us and going to the sit down Mexican restaurant is $40, I’m going to pick food that gives me leftovers every time.

      Taco Bell being cost-prohibitive is so wild to me. I remember going there so many times in high school in the 90’s and being able to get a veritable feast for $5.

      No matter what you get it’s 90% beans, veggies, cheese, and corn. There’s no reason for this product to be high dollar except for motherfucking CEO’s.

        I remember the taco bell challenge, order 10 dollars of food and try to finish it all. Now you can’t get a meal for that price…

      40$ is on the low end, think 70-100+ $, for people addicted to eating out.

      family dinners events can be hundreds or up to a 1000$+

        Yeah it very much depends where we go near me. Place we went to a few Fridays ago $40+tip for two of us, good portions, good food. Other place we go to, slightly smaller portions but still good food, $65+tip. I literally order the same thing at both places.
