  • @lazylion_ca it’s a fast food version of Mexican.

    I like crunchy tacos with one packet of hot sauce per taco. Crunchy taco supreme is good. Burrito Supreme is good, too.

    Sauce is very important, though. You have to have it. Start with the hot sauce (orange packets), and work your way up if you need to. They used to have green sauce that was pretty good, but it’s only available in grocery stores now. 🙄

    For a drink, you need to try a Baja Blast. It’s like their signature thing. Very sweet, has its own flavor you can’t really describe.

    Just keep in mind that it’s fast food. It’s not casual fast like Chipotle or Panera - - more Macdonald’s or Wendy’s.

    One thing Taco Bell has had over a lot of fast food places for a long time is that vegetarians and vegans can actually get edible meals there. It’s basically all of the same ingredients, just mixed around differently.

    They also have bowls you can get. They’re not terrible. I prefer my old standard menu items that haven’t changed in 40 years, though.

    The other thing that just occurred to me - - most of us in the thread responding to you are suggesting their old timey comfort favorites. I’m no different (54 years old and had my first Taco Bell when I was 9), so at 50, your palate may not understand or have the associations with this place that ours do.

    I’m really curious what you’re going to think about it, though. I think most people going in with realistic expectations don’t wind up hating it, though.
