Taco bells menu is like 10 different ingredients combined in various ways, it nearly all tastes identical with the exception of the various protein options (I suggest vegetarian).

Yes! Taco Bell is the go-to fast food restaurant for vegetarians. I suggest the black bean chalupa supreme, veggie mexican pizza, and cheesy fiesta potatoes. Unfortunately, that meal and a beverage will probably cost about $17 usd these days

Pretty much any other food outlet, that way you'll not be disappointed. I've no idea about your country but Taco Bell in the UK is expensive and poor quality.

Going to a real taco restaurant.
you should try not
@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.
You should avoid Taco Bell...
Get quantity over quality (many small tacos)
Live mas
I did consider getting the party pack, but I wasn’t ten taco hungry toremovedht.
😄 Hope you enjoyed what you got!
Baja Blast with whatever you get. Its the best god damn thing about taco bell and im STILL FUCKING PISSED IT LOST THAT ELECTION TO BE YEAR ROUND IN STORS LIKE 7 YEARS AGO
Beef chalupa
I like the doritos tacos
Steak grilled cheese burrito
Crunch wrap & fries supreme (🇨🇦)
The fries supreme are just a shadow of their former self though, 20 years ago they were the best fast food item you could get
Dorito locos tacos, or DLT as the workers summarize for me but I am too embarrassed to use myself
Cyanide. It'll save you a lot of trouble.
A time machine.
Go back 5 years when everything still tasted good. Cuz idk what they did since pandemic hit, adding grasshoppers to the beef or something, but its not good anymore. Its weird-meh.
Bruh.
It's probably that your sense of taste has changed, not their ingredients.
You may have long covid.

Make sure you have plenty of toilet paper.
They had to invent the three seashells.
Existing wiping technology became inadequate after every restaurant became taco bell.
I hope you have some Charmin ultra soft ready to go for tomorrow morning
I recommend Charmin Ultra Strong.
You've got some people saying you gotta slather it in the hot sauces, and other people saying to get ready to have the shits.
Uh, you can avoid the shits by not using the hot sauces.

a better restaurant would be the best thing to try first.
