r/tacobell

I know there's Del Taco, but they have way less locations, some might argue Chipotle but they're a completely different business model. Contrast them with say McDonalds, they have to deal with Burger King, Jack N the Box, Carls/Hardys, Wendys, etc. Dominos, Little Ceasars, Pizza Hut, and Papa Johns all have to compete with each other in the pizza market. KFC, Popeyes, Raising Cane's have their chicken wars. But Taco Bell? They're pretty much by themselves.

I've tried all of them, several times... even the queso and the salsa are bland.
Fire sauce and Baja Blast have to be the only reason taco bell is edible.

Does anyone know why they don't have them?

Besides being counterintuitive with the GUI there are Three MAJOR issues.

1. The app keeps trying to force undesired locations.

The 1st time I ordered it defaulted for no reason to a location I never visit that is further away. Arrived to restaurant only to realize that I ordered at wrong location entirely. [see below for second issue]

The second time I ordered, I did so FROM THE PARKING LOT of the desired location. Once again it tried forcing the order to the other location. Even after selecting the desired location, two times when going to checkout, the location switched back to the wrong location. Third time it finally stayed.

If this is a new “feature” of you guys trying to throttle business to slower locations - stop. Either way, fix it.

2. You can no longer cancel your order for refund. Either I cannot find it, or it’s no longer available.

3. Ingredients missing from items for customization/change.
   IE. Gordita crunch is missing the spicy ranch sauce from its base ingredients for customization- forcing it to be included and disallowing customization or removal.

Whoever proposed this “update/upgrade” and whoever beta tested it should be fired with haste.
You HAD one of the best apps. Now it’s annoying to use.

I tried the tajin taco, the tajin CGC, and the tajin freeze.

The tajin taco was really good. The shell was fragile, like the Doritos locos taco shells. But the chili and lime flavor was pretty front and center for me which was good. Idk why chili and lime go together so well, I just love it. The salsa on top was a good refreshing way to kinda round out and balance the whole package.

The tajin CGC was good too. I didn't really taste any of the tajin on the inner hard shell itself due to, imo, the spicy ranch and the outer doughy tortilla kinda masking it. Adding some dashes of the tajin packet to each bite definitely helped that. Of course the salsa on top was good again here. But I feel like maybe if they offered a tajin soft torilla or something, that would give it more of a boost and not let the other ingredients distract away from it. Just my thoughts.

The freeze was pretty good too. Nice and sweet. I don't think I really tasted much, if any, tajin here, even after giving it some good stirs. Maybe I tasted like a tiny savory hint of it? Can't really tell tbh, but still not a bad freeze.

Over all I liked these items. But I'm already a big fan of tajin and chili lime flavors in general so that probably helped boost my opinion of it haha

I am pretty sure we can all agree that Taco Tuesday should only be food items right? If they want to do random trash like bag charms or other random non food items just have that be a different day. The recent $1 items + $1 reward was such a good idea. Right now I am in a unfortunate money situation and I can't afford Taco Bell but swinging a couple bucks for some food every Tuesday was doable. Maybe there are people who live for the non food drops but I hope we move away from those completely. Sorry rant over.
