People seem to either love Taco Bell or despise it. I don't recall meeting too many people who were ambivalent towards it. I like Taco Bell overall, but there are certain foodstuffs there that I love like the bean burrito, the Chicken tacos and the 7-layer burritos.

Taco Bell is alright in doses. Sometimes a Mexican Pizza just hits the spot. Other times, it is the most vile thing in the world.

Decent when you're in a hurry or have some strange desire to revisit dorm life. [shrug]

No problem with Taco Bell here. Sometimes you just need this kind of food.

I don't see this place as polarizing at all. I eat there maybe once a year or so.

theory disproved, at least when the statistical pool is comprised of sombies.

I'd say I'm sick of it since I ate it so much in college, but I don't despise it. Although the only thing I'll eat on the menu anymore is the mexican pizza. Those things still kick ass.

they have mexican pizza? guess it's been awhile since I visited a taco bell... don't despise it, but unless you live in the boonies no real reason to ever go there. tons of great and often cheap mexican food around.

Take it or leave it. Been there maybe 3-4 times ever. When you live in a big city you inherently have a good sized latino population. That means authentic taquerra's. Why go to Taco Bell?

Mexican Pizzas have been on the menu for at least 16 years (going back to my freshman year of college when I first had one).

It's possibly been that long since I've been to one... although I probably have been there once in that span. I probably didn't actually read the menu though.

hey yancy, you ever go to Naugles?

You can't beat genuine Mexican food for its heartiness on the dollar. Have a bowl of chicken soup at one of these taquerias sometime...in the bowl with the broth you get huge, huge chunks of veggies and potatoes, plus 1/4 of a chicken--not boned, pick the meat off yourself!

We went to a place in Aurora (hi Jess, you might know!) last weekend called La Quinta de las Reyes and ordered something called a paradilla (spelling is way off, I know) for 4 people--a heated pan filled to heaping with grilled pork, beef, chicken, sausage, onions, peppers, prawns in their shells, and other goodies, with a center bowl of melted cheese in a picante sauce...plus a cup of ham and bean soup and tortillas, all for 49 bucks. We ate like kings.

Taco Bell is getting big in Mexico. They think it's classy American food.

No, it'll be stupid, and we're already doing something stupid.

I've never had anything from Taco Bell. Being of Mexican descent has no bearing on this whatsoever, like some of you have said, this city has enough authentic Mexican food to avoid having to settle for the quicker fast food version of it.

Never heard of it.

Taco Bell is a great fast food chain in that everything there just tastes like taco bell. What you order is more about what texture you're in the mood for and how much money you care to spend.
