    Taco Bell for me suffers from two devastating problems. 1. Poor customer service like getting the order wrong and 2. Poor quality of the food. But a lot of fast food places have these two problems anymore. Add in their food prices being too high and you see a sharp decline in the industry.

      Most fast food joints are suffering from clown world prices right now, but Taco Bell is actually still ( kind of) affordable if you go through their app. They've got some combos that aren't on the regular menu, including a $7 box that can have a Crunchwrap/Cheesy Gordita Crunch/Chalupa Supreme, a basic taco/burrito, a side and a drink. That's cheap enough that I'm still willing to ignore the subpar service

    The problem with Taco Bell is that no one ever pretended it was actually good; it was cheap and filling. Now that it's no longer cheap, in addition to the fact that they're using beans as a filler for using less meat, is it really worth it anymore? I say no.

    When I worked at tacobell people would ask for the double-decker constantly despite it not being on the menu, so we would charge them for a crunchy taco, refried beans, and a tortilla. That rounded out to be about $2.50, so the DD is being upcharged up to $1.50 for seemingly no reason.

    • @Stiksta
      @Stiksta Рік тому +2

      Wish my tacobell was this cool. I just get "LOL ITS NOT ON TEH MENU" like fuck off. I worked fast food too. We had items not on the menu. As long as you have the items in the store there should be zero issues. If someone wanted a turkey italino at subway, I'd happily give them the BMT with the ham replaced by the turkey like they requested and ring it out appropriately. Doesn't matter if its not on the menu. But the taco bell crews here suck, they fuck up simple orders, they always give you unfrozen drinks when you ask for frozen, they always forget the sauce 90% of the time and then the other 10% of the time they give you all the sauces you were supposed to get but now you don't need them. Its just never great.

  • @Miser_Mask
    @Miser_Mask Рік тому +34

    I know I've probably said it before, but the biggest thing for me is the prices. When you could go there and get tacos for like 80 cents, and items like this were only like $1.30 or so, Taco Bell was a great place to eat. It's a problem with pretty much all fast food places these days too, the food just isn't worth the prices.

    • @Linda7647
      @Linda7647 Рік тому +2

      Ditto. Taco Bell used to be a weekly go-to of mine. But then they started axing off the 'nostalgic' items and raising prices and now I only go like maybe once a month, if that. I'd say more like once every 2-3 months. They're just too damned expensive. And besides, Double-Decker Tacos are easy to make at home and 10 times better.

      Where I live (boise idaho) taco Bell is literally the one and only fast food place with genuine 1 dollar flat items still. Even the 2 dollar items are great value for the price. Del taco costs nearly double here for value menu items. I regularly get the potato soft taco for 1 dollar and the chipotle grilled chicken burrito for 2 dollars. It's the one fast food place that I don't need coupons for to get a really good deal.

    The Double Decker has always been my favorite. Since they discontinued it, I've been hacking the Cheesy Gordita Crunch to create a reasonable facsimile. I'm looking forward to comparing the re-release of the OG to my hack. I agree with others; the Double Decker must be supreme.

    taco bell is very hit and miss depending on who owns the location. There's no way you can ruin this. Everything they need to make this has existed at taco bell for as long as I've been alive. If you let it sit for too long though the inner shell becomes soggy which is no bueno. Another cool trick to do is order it with the dorito shell instead of the regular shell too.

      When they discontinued it, I got into making my own. I build a couple smallish ones at a time, which is more than enough. If you store them right, you can fry some shells and finish them off in the oven. They can be kept for a few days and reheated in the oven and then filled in. Sometimes I'll stick one side higher than the other, then add shredded or ground turkey so it literally looks like a turkey salad.

    Had a few of these last night - "basic and unremarkable" pretty much sums it up. They would have been better if they were:
    1. Fresher and warmer - the interior hard shell was super soggy.
    2. Made with actual care - the bean distribution was terrible... big glob of it here... little smear there.
    3. The beans had better flavor, somehow.
    Taco Bell continues to dissapoint - truly a shadow of its former self (from when I was a kid, like 20-30 years ago). That's pretty much all fast food now, though.

    I enjoy it, this is one of my classic favorites. They overpriced it though, you can literally buy 2 tacos for just a tiny bit more than 1 of these. This was supposed to be a reliable budget standby, they were on the $1 menu back in the day. I think given current menu pricing, adding it at the $2 price point would be ideal, but $2.50 would be reasonable considering a regular taco in my area is 1.69.

  • @ferrari250lm

    When the shredded chicken mini quesadilla and the spicy tostada were on the dollar menu, I would get one of each and then open up the quesadilla and put it filling side down on top of the tostada. Then I would close up the tostada box and flip it over, open it back up, and use a fork to break the tostada shell down the middle. Then fold it up into a taco shape and you are left with a $2 shredded chicken double decker taco of sorts.

    Review Brah, I thought that your rating of this item was fair, and perhaps a bit generous. I agree with your assessment of the Mexican Pizza, and will offer my own experience. I was so excited with it's return to the menu, and couldn't wait to try it, as it has always been a favorite of mine. However, as soon as I tasted it, I knew immediately that something was wrong. It had a faint chemical taste I couldn't identify that completely ruined the pizza. So much so that I haven't been back since. How could a franchise take a tried-and-true staple item and completely screw it up? One of the worst things that a fast food chain restaurant can do is to take the fun out of eating, and that's what Taco Bell seems to have done.

    • @josephpurdy8390
      @josephpurdy8390 11 місяців тому

      It was an up sale on the tostada. This was long before other menu items incorporated the tostada shell. Which may have been an item to cut to lower expenses. Otherwise, if dropping what amounts to being only a recipe without an addtional expense. That customers have known about for 30+ years is foolish.

    They didn't make yours with love. Went at 11:00 for a double decker Supreme with Chipotle sauce. Slightly spicy beans (not hot, just flavorful).
    Perhaps they sauced the beans too. Because taco bell ingredients should be the same regardless of location, and mine had a spicy flavor profile.

I ran a well known pizza establishment for nearly 15 years and I can tell you that products will suffer if they are not made to standard. For the price I expect more. The product appearance of this double decker taco clearly shows that it was not executed to standard. The flour tortilla was bent over on one side, and the taco shell looks like it broke already before you even could take a bite. Excellent review brah.......keep up the excellent work amigo
