These prices are getting so ridiculous. beefy 5 layer was once like $1. T bell used to be the go to place for cheap food but now a full meal for just me is like $25 or more. Ridiculous
This has to be the worst discovery box ever, even the dipping burritos had better value.
Got taco bell at 11am to have a nice binge meal. Rolled up and decided to get the new Discovery box. Eh, this was straight garbage. It’s tastes like plastic, looks like plastic and damn near smells like plastic. The shredded beef is flavorless, and the only thing carrying it is the jalapeño sauce. Took an excellent picture, so you guys can enjoy my suffering. Pass on it.
Sometimes I keep it much simpler and go for the build your own box but the supreme lux box is my favorite because it has three of my favourite items as well as chips and guac. Sometimes I go all out on the Crunchwrap supremes, my dad likes them loaded with beans and black beans and I love the potatoes. What do y’all think?
This is my go to order. I love my taco bell, I go 3-4 times a week and everything always comes out perfect. But I do wonder if they dread seeing my name pop up because they have to modify so many things.
[UPDATE] okay so I might've worded this wrong, and I want to address some things.
First off, This isn't what I get everytime I go to tbell. This is all of my favorite items and sometimes I will get all of them at once, like this. Other times I will get half or just part of this list.
Second, my intention was to ask employees if this is the type of order that really annoys them or adds stress to their day. I appreciate those who work customer service and I don't want to make their job any harder because it is already miserable having to serve the public. I don't care how much I'm spending. While I appreciate the concern for my finances. I'm good, I can afford this. I am not hurting what so ever. That being said, I have tried different variations of this order with all of the boxes, this is the cheapest way to do it.
And finally, I am a female 😅😅
In the St. Louis, Missouri area, launching today.
Both the Taco and Burrito contain Slow-Roasted Cantina Chicken, Lettuce, Purple Cabbage, Caesar Seasoning, Fiesta Strips, Poblano Caesar Sauce, and Garlic Parmesan Spread.
Bowl is the same plus Seasoned Rice, Black Beans, and Seasoned Chalupa Chips.
All come with the usual Avocado Verde packet while the Bowl also has the same Jalapeno Citrus included with the new Mexican Pizza
I am a 19 year old female who lives in a small town, and when it’s not the summer I work as a school aide. Well now that it’s summer I need a summer job. Being in a small town means I don’t have a whole lot of options, and the options I have aren’t good ones. They either don’t pay well enough, or if they pay okay they don’t offer enough hours. I don’t really want to work a fast food job, but that’s really only because I grew up with a stigma that working in fast food is embarrassing somehow. I personally have never judged anyone for working fast food, I actually really respect and admire them. But I know that’s not how everyone feels. But the reality is that Taco Bell is the only place in my area that offers great hours, great pay, and amazing benefits. I know I just need to get over myself because a job is a job, but how do I get over the embarrassment? Also be brutally honest with me on your thoughts about this. Would you judge me for working at Taco Bell? Especially if you were around my age? Also if you’ve worked at taco bell did you like it? Help me snap out of my overthinking!! Any advice or thoughts are much appreciated!!
I went to an estate sale today and the house was covered head to toe in dog decor/memorabilia. Whoever lived there was a dog fanatic. They were 4 bucks a piece and this lady had about 12 of these. Most were out of their bags but these were still sealed and 2 of them still talk! I wish I got the others :( god bless the woman and her love for pooches
Just curious since I just thought about it.
But do any of you eat Taco Bell with hot sauces that aren’t the provided TB sauces?
If so, what brand of hot sauces do you pair your food with.
Sooo good! I don't normally get the Mexican pizza but this I would get regularly! I did remove the purple cabbage. There is a pleasant heat from the sauces as well.
Edit: IDK why people are being so weird about this. No, I don't work there nor do I know anyone who does. No, I didn't order it with any customizations except no purple cabbage (bc that shit does not belong in anything imo). Sorry to the trollish haters who come here just to complain or make ignorant accusations but you're all wrong. I am thankful my TB is usually pretty good and I'm sorry for those of you who don't have a good one near you. OH and if it wasn't obvious enough, I poured my sauces on top myself....
If you’re truly curious where it’s Buffalo, NY.
Hello 👋🏾 have the chicken nuggets been discontinued. I went to Taco Bell earlier and they said they were…both regular and the spicy…and I swear the spicy just came out, right? I got a chicken quesadilla and two burritos instead. Forgot my Baja Blast, but I was out of $$$
Decide to switch it up a bit on my extra cheese and added the three cheese blend to one.
I’m not sure which one I enjoyed more but I’m leaning the regular cheese, curious what others prefer?
I’ve never worked at an actual job before so I’m not sure if it’s all just me, but within my first couple weeks working at Taco Bell there have been a couple weird instances from the managers and it’s making me consider quitting.
Is all of this just me overreacting or is this standard for working at Taco Bell?
I’m sorry for the long post, some of this is just me needing to vent.
UPDATE: Thank ya’ll for all the responses and advice, it was honestly very validating to see this many people pissed off at this, lol. I’m going to send an email to HR and peace out after I get my 300$. Ya boy is getting a bass tuner and then start saving up for an eyebrow piercing ✌️.
This is not a complaint about TB per se, bear with me on the back story.
Back in late 1998, I started working at the TB store closest to my house (all 4 TBs in my town were franchises owned by the same dude). I was about 4 months pregnant as a surrogate, and the general manager (GM) who was a good dude still agreed to hire me, knowing I would need several weeks off right before and after the birth. I worked my tail off, never complaining of my feet and back pain, up until about 2 weeks before I gave birth.
I came back after a total of 6 weeks off, and had to start all over with my training videos and packet because I'd been on pregnancy disability leave. 8 months later, a shift manager (SM) walked off mid-shift one night and after speaking to the GM, I was asked if I could be an interim SM until they could either promote someone or transfer someone from another store. I had begun my training videos and packet to be qualified to be a SM, but was still a few months away from being able to be promoted, but I said yes. I worked for about 6 weeks as an interim SM (with no bump in pay, mind you), before they promoted someone who had completed their training before I could.
Fast forward to 5 months later. I had completed everything and was qualified to be SM. We had gotten a new GM in that time, as the previous GM was sent to the newest store that opened. The new GM had been our Assistant Manager (AM) prior to his promotion, and he was your classic narcissist, but plagued by Napoleon syndrome and small peepee energy. A spot opened up for a new SM since the AM was promoted to GM, and one of the SMs got the AM position. One of my good friends who was hired the same week I was, had already promoted to SM. She had 6 weeks of seniority over me since I had taken leave to give birth. She overheard the GM saying to one of his nepo buddies, another SM who'd worked there far less time than she or I, that as long as HE was the GM, I would NEVER be promoted to SM.
I said fuck all of that. I'm not going to stick around here for minimum wage with no chance of advancement. So I found another job and put in my 2 weeks with TB. I worked both jobs for 2 weeks, and on my last shift at TB, I had already worked 7-3:30 at my new job, and was scheduled 4:30 to close at TB.
This was back in 2000 when the Mucho Grande line came out, and they still had XL soft drinks. I was working drive headset and register, which at that time also included helping expedite as well as getting drinks. A dude who was obviously higher than giraffe pussy came through the drive through around 6, and said, and I quote:
"Hey, I wanna order one of those big ass burritos, and a big ass nachos, and gimme a big ass mountain dew please." Swear to God. I knew what he was asking for, so I keyed in the mucho grande burrito, the mucho grande nachos, and the XL mountain dew. I read it back to him exactly as he ordered it. "Okay sir, so I have a big ass burrito, a big ass nachos, and a big ass mountain dew. Is that correct?" As all the people on the line, with headsets and without, laughed their assess off, what I can only assume was a descendant of the Dude from the Big Lebowski confirmed, and managed to pull up to the window. I took his money, gave him his food, and he drove off.
Cue the tight assed, small dicked, short and pissed off GM coming up to me. "You can't say stuff like that!" I said "like what?" He said "what you just read back to the customer!" I said "I was just repeating what he ordered, aren't we supposed to do that?" Keep in mind, I knew I was being cheeky. But it was my last shift and I didn't care. He screamed at me, "You can't treat customers like that! They might complain!" I told him, "That customer was smiling and laughing and loved that I read his order back to him exactly how he ordered it. Besides, what are you going to do, fire me? I already quit!" This dude had the audacity to say, "You can't quit because I'm firing you. You can leave now."
I looked him dead in the face and said "Dude, you already signed my resignation two weeks ago. Besides, if you fire me, you have to give me my paycheck now. You owe me 2 weeks worth of wages. Pay up, shortie." His face about turned purple, and he said "Fine, you're not fired. But I'm relieving you of duty. You're done." He looked so smug for about 5 seconds while I took off my shirt and hat and apron and threw them at him. About that time, he realized that without me working til close, he now had to finish my shift. Fuck around and find out, my guy.
All that to say, I really miss the option for an XL drink, and those mucho grande nachos were AMAZEBALLS. Back then, Taco Bell still had the enchirito, the chili cheese burrito, the original chicken burrito supreme which was totally different from the beef burrito supreme, the Baja sauce, and they still sold those individually sliced pies, like strawberry cream cheese, oreo, reese's, and they even had the Choco Tacos still.
RIP, 90's/2000's era Taco Bell. You are missed.
I cant remember the name, but they were round and had cream cheese icing inside. Those were good! Now they are gone. All my favorite things they had are all gone now. Including the Fiery Doritos Loco Taco.
Whyyyyyyy!!!! 😪
