Blog Series TRIGGERED: Trip Wire #3 Taco Bell

in blog •  7 years ago 

More like taco hell. Now I really like Taco Bell. It is a guilty pleasure sometimes and when I'm drunk there is nothing better. Highly processed cheese goo mixed with meat, so low grade it is used in dog meal, and menu items so unoriginal, there are only a couple different tastes you can get when going there. That isn't what triggered me. No, instead it was a specific Taco Bell just a block away from my house. The biggest POS on this planet.

This is a taco bell saten would be proud of. I feel compelled to share this in case anyone has the ill conceived thought of visiting this establishment. Don't visit this taco bell if you like having basic customer service, correct orders, timely orders, or being able too even order at all. On separate occasions they have been out of beef, chicken, taco shells, hot sauce, cheese, limited time items. Although they never seem to run out of rubbery steak and beans (thank the lord). On the off occasion I try to treat my heart to a breakfast there I have twice been told they didn't have eggs and last time at 7:30 a.m (they open at 7 i might add) I was informed they wouldn't be ready to serve food till around 8. I should mention also that the "restaurant" is drive thru only a 2/3 of the time due to lack of staffing.

You might wonder, "why would he continue to go there if it's so bad". Well I have consumer amnesia, I love taco bell and it is a block away. A deadly trifecta. My qualms arn't even necessarily with the workers, it lies mainly with the management which is so inept that there would be better customer satisfaction and profit margin if they let the customers run the shop. The owner of this grotto must be either purposefully negligent, or utterly ignorant. I've never come across such an embarrassment of a business. I recommend the people of lacrosse and any drifter coming through that if they don't want to spend money only to curse a burrito shop, then not to waste their time at this disaster.

I'd crawl the 5,000 steps for this Taco Bell to gain sufficient service. I just want to smother my face in beans and cheese. Not even swallowing before another flat bite of burrito enters.

That is something else that pisses me off about Taco Bell. There advertisements and pictures for burrito's look stuffed. Then you get the burrito and its like they put cheese paste in between two pieces of paper. I mean I don't expected the real thing to live up to advertisements, but I shouldn't get a burrito more flaccid then a soft penis. C'mon.


You know the feeling

It is too bad these things, and too bad the Taco Bell near me is the worst business in existence. I love you taco bell, just be better.

Thanks for absorbing my rant steemians, until the next trip wire.

I have never had any issues at the Taco Bell in La Crosse by campus, but my suggestion is to dress for the elements and make the trek to Taco Johns.

That's what I have to do now. Are you familiar with Lacrosse? Must be. I thought you were from Minnesota?

My wife is from La Crosse and we lived downtown for 2 years until we moved back to Minnesota in 2015. Her family lives right on Lousy Blvd. We will be down there for Christmas this year.
