That shite cost about $3.50 in the late 90's - early 2000's.






And I'm not trying to make a "tree fiddy" joke.

Just add the app to your phone, Dad. Enchirito is $4.29. Nacho fries, $2.49. Doritos tacos, $2.99 each and crunchy tacos are $1.99 each. Drinks? That's just on you, Bud: Large is $3.29 for regular soda or $4.19 for a tricked out Freeze something or another.

Pull around to the first window, my cost is $16.74 + tx food, $11.37 drinks. Lesson learned.

Oh, and next time? Customize a Luxe Cravings box for $7.29 each. Drinks included. You got played.

Hot Take: Taco Bell is and always has been terrible
The closest food establishment to my work is a Taco Bell and I've never been to it. I honestly can't remember the last time I went to one but Taco Bell in the 70s was legit. It had real food and even a real bell. It was dinner at the Alamo.

Only thing that makes sense to get at Taco Bell is value menu stuff. I can get a much better taco or something similar for about the same price at several good taco places within a minute drive from the Taco Bell near my house.

A Crunchwrap Supreme is like 7 bucks now.

The days when I could get a crunchwrap and Pizza Hut breadsticks for a $5 swipe of my LSU ID are long gone. The main thing Taco Bell had going was how cheap things were.

I only buy stuff on Tuesdays through the app.

Last week, I got $1 Mexican Pizza.

The week before, I got $1 Enchirito.

Their profit margin on those soft tacos has to be ridiculous. The ground meat is basically dog food and they barely give you any.

If the only way to get cheap food from a cheap fast food place is to download their shitty app on my phone, Scruffy will opt to just not eat there.

What’s the next step? A subscription service probably.
