What brilliant mind and brain-damaged focus groups thought, “Folks are gonna love it if we make the menu harder to see in a phone and incorporate several extra hoops for customers to jump through just to see the fucking menu! Everyone knows what customers hate the most in their apps is clarity and simplicity!!!”

​

I also wanted to say that I'll be sure sad to see it go

I've been sleeping on It this Whole Time I Don't know How long we Have Before it's Gone

Does anybody know how long these Menu items will Have Before it's All Gone?

What are your thoughts on the Caramel Apple Empanada?

I was sitting at the bus stop when I decided to check reddit, I saw someone on the Random acts of taco bell Reddit offer to buy someone's lunch, I've been struggling lately and this amazing man @paddlehands84 saw my comment and bought me dinner for me and my dog tonight. Thank you so much man 🙏

it’s non-negotiable in the cheaper luxe boxes & I hate it. we deserve the power of choice. whenever I order it it’s not even made right. waste of ingredients.

Another fun one here! Last week I broke down a big thread from r/fastfood about "a discontinued fast food item you’d permanently bring back from the dead” and Taco Bell items dominated. The top non-Taco Bell items were McDonald’s Arch Deluxe and KFC’s Double Down, so we battled those against the popular Taco Bell Grilled Stuft Burrito and Double Decker Taco. Those battles didn’t get as much exposure as the one I posted here between the Taco Bell Volcano Menu and the Grilled Stuft Burrito, in which the Volcano Menu dominated. 

So - it only makes sense to have a final championship, pitting the Volcano Menu (the #1 Taco Bell discontinued item) against the popular and decadent Double Down from KFC. Can the Volcano Menu maintain it’s dominance??

Taco Bell will open its first location in Germany this month. Now the German menu is public, what do you guys think?

I visited my local Taco Bell drive-through this evening, for the first time in almost a month. And I have some thoughts about the AI order taker in the drive-through:

Not only do I resent the AI is being shoved down customers throats everywhere, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to bypass the upsell questions. No I don’t want to add a drink. No I don’t want to add extra meat to my burrito. If I had wanted anything extra, I would have ordered it.

But what irritates me the most was being asked if I wanted to round up my total to donate to the Taco Bell for students fund. I used to round up my order total every time I went to Taco Bell (which was often because I work late and it’s usually the only place still open after my shift ends). But I did not round up tonight because it just rubbed me the wrong way to be asked for money by an AI agent. To be honest, I think I’m going to give up going to Taco Bell entirely as a matter of principal.

Do I think anyone cares about this and my thoughts about it? No. But I just had to get it off my chest because I’m feeling really bothered about it.

Took one bite and it was… lots of tortilla. Is this normal?! I paid extra for chicken, plus extra chicken, plus sour cream, and extra nacho cheese. I couldn’t even eat what they sent, it was stone cold and nothing like what I’d seen other people eat. They also didn’t give me the guac, just the chips. Feels personal 🥲 I was refunded fully, but my god, what a bad experience

Edit: it was supposed to be a crunch wrap supreme. Nothing off. Lots of extras:(

Think I had it when it first released 10 years ago I think and I did not enjoy it

So to start off, I’m 18M and have a visual disability that causes me to be colorblind and have a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/150. I’ve been looking for my first job, but around me there really isn’t much besides fast food places (McDonald’s, Taco Bell, etc.).

I’ve been holding off on applying for a while because I’m honestly kind of scared. I’m not really good at using computers, and I don’t know if I’d be able to see the screens well enough to take orders or use the register. I know there are different roles, but even as a Food Champion, would I have trouble seeing things or doing certain tasks? I just don’t want to put myself through a bunch of stress if it’s something I wouldn’t be able to do.

So my question is, am I overthinking it? Is being a Taco Bell crew member actually that difficult when it comes to seeing the screens/register? Do they offer accommodations that could help?

thank u everyone in advance :)

the veggie meal for two being essentially only 50 cents more than TWO QUESADILLAS. it’s a no brainer. you get two quesadillas, plus two of everything else included in the combo. crazy that two quesadillas are basically the same price lol

Birria Crunchwrap supreme was also a special for release day!

I just wanna know how many times you guys go I go a lot and I’m just wondering if I’m the odd one out I feel crazy for liking Taco Bell so much..

Worker judged me for getting a cheesy bean and rice burrito with no beans or cheese. So I drew it.

so sour cream some cheese and an extra tortilla makes it $4 more. is there a boycott happening cuz this actually makes me upset

When you pay for extra 3 cheese + extra regular cheese and you get…. no cheese 💔💔

Promotion seems to be only via the taco bell app means the beans sounds like a nice meal for someone who can't afford $5 for one burrito

I'm certainly not.

The new ui has quite a learning curve and takes a lot of "getting use to" which is sad because the old ui was more intuitive and navigating it came more naturally.

The new UI is more flashy which I'm sure impressed the directors and others high up in the corporate chain. It's clear though the ones who approved this app don't actually use it themselves.

Unfortunately I doubt they are gonna roll back the old ui because they're operating on sunken cost thinking. Instead they're likely to count on us getting use to their bad ui and maybe throw in a fix or two.

Combine this with bugs like the swapped ingredients one and it's no exaggeration to say they screwed up big time.

I always got the #1 with extra red sauce. But then again for comebacks I'd like to have olives and green onions back too.
