Taco Bell has always been a particular case of "how the fuck are they still in business??" ...on top of way over priced, subpar quality, and subpar taste, they sell a product in a saturated market, and nearly all of their competitors are better.
Even if we're talking shitty fast food, there are dozens of Taco Bell like chains, and almost all of them are better than or at least equal to Taco Bell.
And outside of shitty fast food, actual Mexican food is all over the place. To include more authentic taquarias that usually sell tacos and burritos for like half of what Taco Bell does and their product is fucking delicious. We have one of those near were I live - right across the street from a Taco Bell... and every day Taco Bell has a line around the fucking building, while the cheaper, better, and ready-to-take-your-order place is right fucking there! Drives me insane.
