Author Topic: Taco Bell's E-Coli outbreak is officially over! Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 12-17-2006 08:03 PM                     Just saw a commercial on Sunday Night Football where Taco Bell's chief executive announced the e-coli outbreak is over! Is it actually a good thing to make such an announcement on national TV? Does it make me want to make a run to the border for a grilled steak stuffed burrito? Not really. I'm now thinking of that e-coli crap and trying to figure out how it could wind up on veggies. Unwashed veggies. Veggies with animal shit and piss on them. I'm not hungry anymore.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 12-17-2006 08:37 PM                        I am amazed that anyone eats at Taco Bell in the first place. They don't even sell cheeseburgers! Since they are not KFC (the only fast food place that can get away with not selling burgers), they are 100% useless.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-17-2006 11:00 PM                     So, if you catch E.Coli from eating contaminated food the usual symptom is a case of the "Screaming Shits". Right? When I eat at Taco Bell, I usually get the shits even when the food ISN'T contaminated. So, how would I know the difference?  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 12-17-2006 11:13 PM                     Fuck Taco Bell... Del Taco is where it's at!  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 12-18-2006 12:18 AM                        Del Taco is great because they know they're not in any way Mexican food, and they're not trying. "Of the" Taco? Please. They sell burgers, too! Just for Joe. I could eat the Macho Chicken Burritos forever. Excellent fries, too. Taco Bell is okay. But they don't have "'Beyond Hot' Del Scorcho" hot sauce, which is mildly tangy and not in any way actually hot.  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 12-18-2006 03:56 AM                     quote: Brian Michael Weidemann But they don't have "'Beyond Hot' Del Scorcho" hot sauce, which is mildly tangy and not in any way actually hot. I worked there in my younger days (Del Taco). When Del Scorcho came out, it was friggin' hot. They tamed it down to closer to their Hot Sauce, and introduced Mild (which was the same as the old Hot). Taco Bell's chicken sucks ass. I MUCH prefer Del Taco's, and having seen the behind the scenes at Del Taco for 3+ years, I still eat there. If you have ever worked at a restaurant of any kind, that's saying a lot.  |  IP: Logged Jack Ondracek Film God Posts: 2348 From: Port Orchard, WA, USA Registered: Oct 2002 posted 12-19-2006 12:15 PM                        quote: Taco Bell's chief executive announced the e-coli outbreak is over!

It just seemed like another l-o-n-g line of corporate BULLSHIT!  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 12-19-2006 03:53 PM                  I agree wit' yous about Del Taco as being theeee best! I get their macho burritos and burgers...YUM! I 1st discovered them when the Naugles joint I always patronized was all of a sudden a Del Taco.  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 12-19-2006 05:04 PM                        The Naugles I remember from my childhood became a Green Burrito. I haven't heard the name Naugles in forever! I must be old. What a silly name for a burrito joint, I now realize.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 12-19-2006 05:49 PM                  The story I got was Naugles was the surname of an ex-Del Taco employee that started his own biz based on the Del Taco Menu...and after he became successful, sold the chain to Del Taco.  |  IP: Logged Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 12-21-2006 10:40 PM                        Pancho Taco, they used to be sooo goood. Too bad that was back in the 80's. As a kid, I'd love to eat there. No trots either.  |  IP: Logged
