Is it a meaningful value? And I definitely don't give a shite about national advertising

It's crazy how much Taco Bell has raised their prices. You could eat like a king for $5 there about 10 years ago.


I remember that grande combo which was like 10 bucks and you got a shite ton of food

I also miss the Pizza Hut buffet for 5.99

Thanks a lot for ruining that Covid

I got Taco Bell for me and my daughter the other day and was shocked at the price. She got a chicken quesadilla meal. I got a 5 layer burrito (no meal) and we got 2 orders of chips and cheese - $22.

Hell, I'd have gone to a better place had I known it was going to be that much.

They need to bring back "The Quarter Back"

Burger
Fries
Drink

You give them a dollar and get a quarter back!

For 25 bucks I can go to our local Mexican restaurant and get a huge quesadilla with steak, chicken, and shrimp side of rice and beans plus half order loaded beef nachos. Not to mention free chips and salsa

Way better value

Yeah I could have gone down the road and gotten a much better meal for the same price or a few dollars more.

Yes taco bell is insane with its prices. A burrito supreme there costs almost 6 dollars.

the year was 1993. I was drunk and high and wandered over from the Bayou. $3.23 for a McChicken value meal. Did this too many times to count

These days, you have to use their app if you get fast food. It’s way cheaper that way.
