Taco bell--yuck! Their lettuce tastes like cardboard. Their taco shells are gross. I live on the border and know what yummie mexican food is. Oh wait, lets be politically correct....hispanic food!!! Yum yum

I think hispanic food can be very healthy if cooked right and porportioned right. A taco and burrito have all of the food groups

Seriously--it is good for ya.

You'd be right to call it mexican food. Not all hispanics eat tacos.

oh good

I love mexican food.....I cook it at least once a week and sometimes twice (different dishes of course)

I love TB, lol, it's pretty much the only fast food place I enjoy eating. I go for the crunch-wrap or just a plain ol bean and cheese burrito. It's yummy, and good every once in a while, with Subway I too have had many bad experiences and have been left questioning their storage practices. After a few rounds of stomach upsets I've given up on them, unless I'm trying to loose a lb or two lol, jk (sort of).

I'd give my right arm for a double, double. We don't have In 'n Outs back here and I miss them.

This thread had me craving fake Mexican food! I haven't satisfied my craving for Taco Bell even if I haven't been to one in years!!!!

What's everyone think about Chipotle? There's one on every corner where I live and I have yet to try anything there.

My son likes tacos - but only the ones I make so far.

I already posted about it but LOVE Chipotle!!! You are sooo lucky to have so many close to you. It's my obsession for sure, LOL. It's actually healthy for you, too. And cheap. I always spend like $7 for a HUGE burrito and a drink there. The closest one to me is like 25 minutes away so I don't go as often as I wish. It's not like the burrito's you get in Mexican restaurants like Chevy's, etc. They are so good! OK... my Chipotle love rant is over.

I like Taco Bell for a quick meal. They are really cheap compared to other fast foods, but since I have to watch my salt intake, I rarely go there any more. Chipolte is great! I love that place too. When I go into the city I usually stop there and bring that home. I skip the tortilla shell with all it's salt and get the burrito bowl. I always thought that was weird until I tried it. They give you so much food I usually get two servings out of it and it tastes really good warmed over. YUM!!!

Ringo1 · 11-23-2010, 08:23 PM

Thank you! We are going to try Chipotle tomorrow night. Who cooks the night before Thanksgiving???

DvlshAngel985 · 11-23-2010, 09:23 PM

ARGH! I'm really wanting to have some Taco Bell, but I can't have any! I went out of my way to drive to one and IT WAS CLOSED!!!! It has become the forbidden fruit and I want it even more!

Oh my. This is getting serious!

You're in LA, there MUST be a Taco Bell near you that's open. Use Google Maps. Don't come back until you've gotten your fix!

Tabbysmother · 11-23-2010, 09:50 PM

I always feel guilty eating Taco Bell. There's a much better Mexican place in my mall, fresh ingredients, etc.

Anyone have Wawas? I grew up in PA but we moved to the DC area for a while, and when I was pregnant I made the DH drive 45 minutes to the only Wawa in the area for their hoagies. My 6-year-old daughter NEEDS to go to Wawa every day after school.

I did use google maps. I went out of my way to one only to find it was closed.

I work in East LA and the other close ones is one in downtown (where I live) and one in Commerce. Way too much of a drive just for Taco Bell, don't cha think so?

Oh no its never to far for Taco Bell in fact I am having some tonight. Like someone said who cooks the day before Thanksgiving? Chipolte is also an option, I live very close to both and do enjoy both. I say get in the car and find the "forbidden fruit" and enjoy every unhealthy but delicious mouthful.
