I'd say that's close to the amount of time since I've had Taco Bell. Possibly a bit longer. I think I had it just to try it again after nearly 10 years of not having it. I was told they got better. Nah, I still got sick as shit.

I think they are like any food franchise.
TB in my town is great. But the one in the next town over is complete shit.
BK's here are shit. But the ones I've been to in MI and VA are great.
And the JB's here are great while the ones I tried in those two states were horrible.

There are those who seem to value the whole all locations should be the same thing more though. McDonalds for example.

HaHaHa. I get it now, but what does The ship of Theseus have to do with Taco Bell?

When it appears unchanged after passing through your digestive system, is it still taco bell?

Taco bell was great back when they had 5 things on the menu. Although I did like when the Enchirito came out in 1970.

I don't know what the meat is now, but not the same.

Dealer wants 2300+ 300 shipping for a stock short block. Online retailer 2150 + 129.99 shipping. Guess who got told to pound sand……again. My local dealer sucks.

Honestly, I know this is a supposed thing with Taco Bell, but I've never had this experience and I've eaten at Taco Bell all over the US. It's not the best quality food, but it's good in a rush and if eaten fresh.

I wasn't joking when I said I've never eaten TB leftovers. It would never occur to me to keep anything I didn't eat. It's bad enough if it just get cold driving it home.

They have added non-mush meat to their menu and you can get more only slightly processed steak and chicken.

Same with me. I have never gotten sick off anything unless I really overeat, usually I was just hung over.

No, this is for the SC’d street car I just bought with a rod knock. I am considering it in the future for my track car but I think I would go with an entire used engine and go from there.
