    If you thought the meat at Taco Bell was really beef then you have been living under a rock. I worked at Taco Bell as a teenager and even though I know the food is fake and nasty I still eat it. Can't beat lunch for $5!!! Like we needed a law firm to sue them to tell us it's not really beef.

    I worked at Taco Bell for a year (quit in October), the beef isn't really beef. I can't remember but it says what it is on the side of the box. Something or other with "beef flavoring"

    I don't care though, I love Taco Bell food a great deal. It's delicious. The job sucked though.

    5 Layer burrito, no beans with extra beef grilled. All of you gotta try it. Trust me.

    Negative. Comes in a bag just the way everyone eats it, then we drop the bag in the cooker and poor it in a pan.

    The beans come in a powder that we stir with hot water until it looks how you eat it. I don't eat the beans anymore.

    Kind of. When I worked there (15 years ago), the meat was freeze dried as well as the beans. You stuck the bags of meat in hot ass water for x:xx amount of time and it dethawed and turned into "meat". The beans look like cornflakes, you mix them with hot water and let them sit for 4 to 6 hours and then they turn into "beans". I still eat there even knowing how its made. Even got food poisoning from them a couple times too:eek:.

    Think Taco Time only dirtier. Up here, it's often in one of those KFC/Taco Bell combination restaurants. Just like Wendy's/Timmies

    It's a laxative you take when you are heavily constipated. Just like your Tacoma on a dirt trail while it's raining, you'll be spraying mud for days.
