I've tried liking Taco Bell. I want to like Taco Bell. But, it just isn't good. I'll stop in once every six months or so knowing it's going to be the same but I'm weird and keep doing it. Last week I ordered a steak burrito and in every bite I keep expecting to bite into the meat. But never do. I do like that they carry Pepsi in this over saturated Coke world. The food is bland mcbland bland. Do better TB!

I really only enjoy 2 items from their menu. The Crunchwrap Supreme, and the Beefy Potato-Rito. The rest of the menu is standard, and not exciting.

2 past menu items they don’t serve I wish they would bring back, the Mexican pizza, and the Enchirito.

I don't like Tex-mex anyway, so it's not a big loss for me. On 5.5, the line at Chipotle circled the building twice.

IIRC, they're owned by Pepsico, along with KFC and Pizza Hut. It's why you'd see all three together sometimes. There was one near us my kids called KenTacoHut.

The company is called Yum! Brands.

As happens all too frequently these days, I learn that my information is out of date. It appears that Pepsico shed those businesses in 1997.

I love Chipotle especially the lime rice which I can’t have anymore. I usually get their burrito in a bowl with tortillas on the side since you get way more food then you get with just the burrito. It’s way cheaper if you calculate it by weight. 2 days of good eating with one bowl. Not being able to eat the rice, wow that’s going to be tough.

I enjoy Tex mex but authentic Mexican is my fav.

My 83 year old live in uncle LOVES Taco Bell.

But only ONE item.

Beef Burrito.

Off the dollar menu.

He only wants two. Not one, not three, TWO.

And a diet pepsi. Specifies Diet Pepsi.

ME? I dont eat ANY kind of Mexican/texMex/ whatever Taco Bell serves...so....y'all that like it better hope my Uncle lives a long time if you're relying on me to keep it open.

There are only a few restaurants in the world I would wait 2 hours to eat. Chipotle isn't one of them.
