No man, that wasn't me doing the review. I had never heard of these sliders until this thread. My big thing before trying to come up with the perfect chicken wing was making BLT's with bacon cooked in the oven. I can't wait to try one of these BLT CW sliders.

But, I do use youtube for information gathering - need to fix your toilets - youtube, need to replace the thermocouple in your water heater - youtube. Hell, everything I ever knew about my last phone I learned from a 13 year old kid named Sheldon on youtube - everything from unknown tips to downloading the free Rhapsody to load all of my music.

Here's my review.

My associate called the office and asked if we wanted anything from Taco Bell. God, must have told him I was thinking about eating these for lunch today. It's a Christmas miracle. I told him to order all 3. There was a BLT, beef and chicken one.

They were bigger than my fist.


Since I didn't dine in, my opinion may be skewed. I imagine the beefy one would be better in store.

The BLT was my favorite. Since it didn't have warm ingredients, the fritos stayed crunchy. The flavor of the bacon was good.



The beefy one was my second favorite. The fritos were slightly less crunchy due to the consistency of the meat.




The chicken was not that great in my opinion. I've never ordered chicken from Taco Bell, and this appeared to be pulled chicken. I'm no expert in chicken meat, but I found it salty. The fritos were also a little soggy.



For $1, you cannot beat these "sliders." I only ate half of each and feel content. I will definitely revisit these.

Stay fat, my friends.

You are way too angry for this taco thread. This is a place to spread the word of innovation in the taco game.

Agree that the chicken was the worst of the 3.

I didn't put any sauce on mine. I generally go "hot," but my friend didn't grab any.

The number of taco bells that have opened in the metro area last few years is crazy

Yes, the chicken is pulled...that's how you know it is quality. I'm surprised a palate as refined as yours took exception to Chef Garcia's seasoning blend.

I'm thinking about calling in 50 or so BLT's for the party I'm going to tomorrow night.

How long would they need to fill that kind of order and not skimp on the quality?
