Fancy Taco Bell!

Some of youn'z are going about Taco Bell all wrong. I can understand your disappointment.
Don't go in there expecting Mexican food. Go in there expecting fast food with a tortilla, meat, cheese, and vegetables.

One of my sons worked briefly at a Taco Bell when he was in high school.
He came home from his first day on the job and said the beans weren't beans at all...they were made from big bags of powdered dry bean something. That did it for me.
Living where I live it's just to easy to get a great taco made from real ingredients. So
late night, after a gig, or near starving during the zombie apocalypse I won't eat fake food.
 
I was reminded of Demolition Man when I saw that Taco Bell was shared with KFC & Pizza Hut in Singapore:

One location, three choices
Minor Food Group owns them all in Asia (including Sizzler & Burger King), so could basically be the amalgamation of restaurants like what Taco Bell become in Demolition Man

(almost forgot, they also own Swensen's & Dairy Queen)

Once upon a time I really loved Taco Bell & Del Taco, but that was changed when I got some real Mexican food on the West coast.
I still frequented Del Taco, but El Pollo Loco was more preferred when it came to fast food
That's not exclusive to Asia. There's a Kentacohut a few miles from my house.

But I still think it's bland or worse.
