An actual crunchwrap has never looked like that.
They need to remake “falling down” for millenials, but it’s at taco bell. Or maybe they don’t, I don’t know…

1am, taco bell is open. Guy orders a crunch wrap meal, and they have no problem making it. It’s exactly the same as it’s always been and the guy is happy. Cashier rings him up and it’s $20. He snaps.
FenrirIII@lemmy.world 7 months ago
They’d remake it with Kevin Hart and make him the good guy, completely missing the point

There are certain restaurants that everyone says are absolute trash, and yet they stay open.
My wife and I call them Shitty Tacos, and sometimes we say things like “would you like some Shitty Tacos tonight?”. The answer is often “yes”. Especially if we can’t decide on anything else.

black bean is honestly really good (and doesn’t cost extra)
DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Black bean might be my favorite and I’m not even vegetarian
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The steak BREAKFAST Crunchwrap is the greatest thing.

The only thing I have been getting at Taco Bell since the discontinuation of the grilled stuft burrito is a steak power bowl. It’s just a bowl of all the ingredients they have, sans a tortilla-based wrapping or shell.
somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Taco Bell is my depression meter. Not a joke. 1x or less a month, I’m ok, 2x/month, prolly fine, just hungry. If I get to 1- 2x per week I tell my friends in hopes they can help me.
Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
I do the same thing with chipotle.
Mobiuthuselah@lemm.ee 7 months ago
It’ll come back, has before, till then I’ve gone to the steak grilled cheese burrito
MutilationWave@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Prices are nuts though. I’m on the road a lot so I still get it especially if I roll into town extra late. But 20 years ago I could get a grilled stuffed burrito for like $2.50 and that was a whole meal. Maybe even the only thing I ate all day back in those poverty days. Now I spend at least 20 bucks for the same amount of food. And I could go to a nice Mexican American sit down place and get the same amount of much better food for about $15.
pingveno@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The power bowl is nice combined with other stuff. During Hatch chili season, I roasted up some Hatch chilies and removed the skin, stem, and seeds. Chop one or two up and stick them in the bowl. Combine with a heated tortilla.

I KNOW it’s not good, I KNOW my shtummy will hurt after, but I don’t remember ever trying taco bell in my life and I am so insanely curious about it. There are none nearby where I live and I don’t drive. It’s been ages that I’ve had this burning curiosity. I already decided that once I get to go I will be ordering a crunchwrap (idk the menu but this is the item I hear the most people talk about).
JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Imagine something that looks and tastes like dogfood but still somehow releases the happy chemicals when you eat it
FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Awesome, I want it
jaybone@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I can’t believe this. Are you Amish? Someone needs to make a documentary of taking you on a trip to Taco Bell. I would watch that. Hell Taco Bell would probably fund it for promotional purposes.
It would be like his generations Supersize Me. They could call it Grande Size Me.
FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Nope, just a Canadian who didn’t grow up going to many fast food chains before taco bell apparently closed all its doors in the surrounding area!
MutilationWave@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Send me your address and I’ll throw a bunch of their shit in a ziplock bag and mail it to you. Trust me it doesn’t go bad.
Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
The crunch wrap is for taco bell fans who got tired of their tacos, don’t start there!
Get a soft shell, hard shell, and a crunch wrap and eat them in that order. You also have to get a mountain dew Baja blast as thats taco bells own flavor.
FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Oh wow thanks for the guidebook! I’ll try to remember that. And the other suggestions I’ve recieved.
Not sure how I’ll eat all of it 😅
NormalPerson@lemmy.world 7 months ago
You also gotta try one of their best menu items, the cheesy gordita crunch.

Sometime the raccoon in me carves the garbage food of taco bell

BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Idk, the cantina menu is actually pretty good, especially the soft taco.
Everything else is garbage tho. But it’s garbage I crave
PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Even the spicy cheesy potato thing? Thst for me is about the last reason I’ll go.
SassyRamen@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Taco bell is my favorite Restaurant, I wish we had them here! 😢
Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Only fast food place with vegan food too.
Pulsar@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The Veggie Craving menu is the only reason I buy Taco Bell. I don’t know of any other fast food with a menu like that.
EnderMB@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I don’t know why people feel the need to brag about how they don’t eat popular chain food, or about how it’s bad for you.
Posting on social media isn’t good for you, but you’d be the first person screaming “b-but the Fediverse and Linux reeee!” if someone were to call you out on it.
Let people enjoy what they want to enjoy.

That’s White Castle for me.
JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 7 months ago
People who like White Castle are a whole other breed
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 months ago
White Castle sliders at 2 am after drinking… I recommend.
unconsciousvoidling@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
You can always tell someone ate White Castle the day before because the farts smell just like the burgers.
papertowels@lemmy.one 7 months ago
The spicy potato tacos are my sleeper taco bell hit.
meliaesc@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I get the crunch wrap with potatoes instead of beef
puppycat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
spicy potato soft tacos are some of the best fast food items you can get for less than $3.
…also some of the only ATP.
nul9o9@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The sausage breakfast crunch wrap fucking slaps.
papertowels@lemmy.one 7 months ago
The sauce is 10/10
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I’ve been trying to figure out the recipe so I can put it on everything.
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 7 months ago
It is great, but I prefer it with steak. And ALWAYS extra creamy jalapeño sauce!
ResoluteCatnap@lemmy.ml 7 months ago
Get that fake ass crunchwrap out of here before NY sues your ass
Raptor_007@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The Double Stacked Taco with a fire sauce packet is delicious. There’s nothing wrong with Taco Bell…on occasion…

I just want to know what you people are doing to your fast food over in America that is giving people diarrhoea so reliably. Every time I hear people from the US talk about places like Taco Bell, someone inevitably mentions its catastrophic effect on their stomach.
Why is that accepted as normal?!
We have Taco Bell in the uk too and it’s… fine? I eat out or order food at least once a week and I could count on one hand the number of times I’ve ever had food poisoning, but apparently over in America it’s basically guaranteed?? What in the absolute fuck are you people doing you your food?
MutilationWave@lemmy.world 7 months ago
It’s bullshit. Anyone getting diarrhea from Taco Bell has a pre-existing condition.
9point6@lemmy.world 7 months ago
For what it’s worth, American food protection regulations are pretty flimsy compared to ours. IIRC they have a 10-fold incidence rate of food poisoning compared to us.
queermunist@lemmy.ml 7 months ago
Americans never eat fiber, having one bean is enough to put them down for hours.
jaybone@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Taco Bell here in the US probably uses much lower quality beef, and lower quality everything based on what they can get away with under food safety regulations which are probably not as strict as in other countriese. Also some people don’t tolerate the spicy hot sauce and or the grease very well.
Now I’m curious, can someone who has had both comment if the hot sauces are equally hot in the UK and US?
Jimbo@yiffit.net 7 months ago
Taco Bell came to New Zealand just a few years ago and I haven’t tried it because of it’s American reputation, but I’m not really sure why that’s stopped me. If the consequences for eating it are as bad as people say, the whole franchise around NZ would have been shuttered already.

MutilationWave@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The grilled cheese burrito bangs.
scottmeme@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Those as well!
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Anyone remember the Zesty Chicken Bowl? That was the shit. I stopped going to Taco Bell when they got rid of it until my daughter decided that it was the best place ever for a while.

Still holding out hope for the return of the chili cheese burrito.
cm0002@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The CCB is a franchisee optional item, they vary wildly in availability as a result.
For example, they’ve been available in every Colorado location I’ve been to
ummthatguy@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I am glad it exists in some realms, but remain disappointed as it is not available to me.
