There was a thing called fiesta potatoes, and also the loaded potato griller. Both two of my fav things. Fiesta potatoes was basically little cube potatoes smothered in cheese and sour cream. And loaded potato griller was just basically that, potatoes, bacon, sour cream, liquid cheese, they were both delicious.
Fiesta potatoes sound good. Every so often I remember that McDonalds in India, since they don’t serve beef, have some spicy potato thing that has never been available in other markets, and I get annoyed about it. The UK has vegetarians and likes Indian food!
(Incidentally, according to Google Maps there are like 15 Taco Bells in the UK, and every single one of them is in the south of England, so I know basically nothing about them except what I learned here and from Demolition Man.)
I felt the same way when, sometime during the past year, some corporate asshat decided to make the Quesarito “app exclusive.”
Dear Taco Bell: My phone has limited space. I am not downloading your shitty app (or anyone elses) and denying me Quesaritos as punishment only makes me not want to patronize your establishment not waste precious space on my tiny internal memory on your bullshit.
**has been pissed off about this for weeks now and has only here found an outlet for that rage**
If you order through their website (say using the browser already on your phone) you can still order a quesarito just fine. That call was made, as I understand it, because the quesarito takes longer to make than anything else currently on offer at TB, but with the limits on dine in due to covid forcing more business through the drive through it slows down the ine quite a bit.
This reminds me of when Subway restaurants in my area stopped having a five-meat sub as one of their orders. Fortunately I remembered what the five meats that they put on that sub were, so when I go to a Subway I just order a different sub and have them add the other meats onto it.
And why did they kill the Nachos Supreme? The BellGrande is the same thing, but bigger than I really want. Also why won’t the stupid app let me order breakfast? It was working for a while, but then it stopped again.
wait
what at Taco Bell had potatoes
IDK, the Nacho Fries?

My favorite – the beef and potato burrito.
The “meat” probably has tons of filler in it. Oatmeal, flour, potato starch, sawdust… whichever’s cheapest at any given time.
There was a whole thing a few years ago about someone accusing Taco Bell’s “ground beef” of being 70% sillica, i.e. sand.
*plays the trumpet, with additional fart sounds from dry to wet*
I could have sworn that them taters are back
And Taco Bell is none of my business
Taters are coming back, but not back yet, to my knowledge.
Oh, there it is, coming back March 11th.
They have fries, which are in theory made of taters… in theory.
I felt the same way when TacoBell got rid of the limeade.

Taco Light *sob*
Potatoes are coming back, I hear.

I bet that’s all they did to invent that sub in the first place.
The Last Post plays mournfully in the background.
Farewell, my beloved Mexican Pizza. Despite your inaccurate name, I will never forget all the good times we had together.
That’s the one that hurts me the most.
Reminded me when taco bell discontinued my 7 later burrito.
Green sauce. It was great, then they put it in the little packets, which was even better. Then they took it away.
I would eat ten times more Taco Bell if they brought back green sauce.
At least cutting those out of his diet might make it easier to lose those extra pounds Joyce has been shaming him about.
I just remembered when I finally tried ordering the “Meat Mountain” off the Arby’s secret menu, and ours wouldn’t do it =(

Taco Bell has gotten rid of basically everything I ever ordered.
